Can't Install update.zip from SD card!!

Hello all,
So I've been digging through the site for a week or so before i made the plunge to Root my stock Magic. I bought at v1.5, updated to 1.6 (before I new I wanted to Root). I have since gone back to 1.5, created back up with Cyanogen, Flashed, Wiped and am now at the point where Im trying to load my new Rom (Cyanogen's latest) via update.zip.
Problem is, Im using a mac so there is no zip extension by default. I add the extention, plug the SD into my phone, boot to recovery and attempt to install but I fails displaying: "E:Can't access open/sdcard/update.zip (bad) Installation aborted"
Any idea's? I've seen a couple recommenations to rename minus "zip" or reformat the SD card. None of which have helped. Im currently sitting at v1.5 rejecting the Tmobile 1.6 system update messages a couple times an hour!!! *sigh*

if your using a recent recovery rom you should have choose zip option
so just download cy rom leave name as is then put in root of sd boot to recovery and choose zip

Thanks for you response.
I am using CyanogenMod v1.4 Recovery. I have the option to "apply any zip from SD" but nothing is displayed in the list unless its named "update.zip" I had other files on the card that don't show up. In fact, Cyanogen's last update links to a Wiki that doesn't even instruct you to rename the new Rom's to 'update' but again, my SD doesnt display them.

Is the zip on the root of your card? You should probably redownload the CM rom and put that one you redownloaded on your sdcard without renaming it or anything. That might work.

how do you copy the file across
phone in recovery mode or phone fully booted
if the first you will need to reboot back to recovery after you copied it accross to show
you could fully format your card fat32 if your using cy rom mount sd card and copy just the cy rom across to the card remember to backup card first

I tried 2 options. 1)Fully booted via usb into the card and 2)removing card and mounting via a Card Reader to my Mac. In both cases I booted to Recovery Mode on the phone and had the same result.
As far as formating the card, its not stock, its an 8 gig that I formated via the phone's erase/format function. Is that not sufficient?
In regards to cy's ROM Im not able to access it after I backup with the apk i have (never get the "Load Custom Rom" button, which is why im using cynoagens.

I'm assuming the quoted statement above is still true. I flash via a Mac all the time, so here's what I would do if I were you.
Have the phone booted into your standard ROM.
Plug in the USB cable.
Pull the top menu down on your phone and choose Mount USB.
You should see a new volume in Finder on your Mac (Mine is called no name)
Put the TWO files required for Cyanogenmod on the root of that volume (one of the files is called HTCRootedBase something or other.zip and the other is Cyanogen's actual changes)
Power off the phone after the file copy is complete.
Unplug the USB.
Reboot into recovery by holding the Home&Power button.
Choose apply any zip
Select the HTCRootedBase file first.
Let it do its thing.
When it says "Install from SD complete", run apply any zip again.
Choose the Cyanogen zip file.
When it says "Install from SD complete", reboot the phone.
Be PATIENT. It may take 5 minutes for the phone to reboot, but as soon as you see the blue Android logo with the guy on the skateboard you can start doing the happy dance.

Unable to install the ROM...same error message: "E:Can't access open/sdcard/HTC_ADP_1......zip (bad) Installation aborted"

can you try another sd card

Ok, problem solved! It seems my Mac was not correctly downloading the files in the zip format even though i was manually changing the extention. Luckily i have Parallels so I downloaded via XP and added the correct zip files to my sd from there and success! Thanks for all your help!!!

glad you got there bet you learned alot about adb recovery because of your little problem

Deleted the original pink screen files

Hi guys!
My first tread on this forum, but not the last
I've been so stupid, because i have deleted the original pink screen files (recovery and the 3others in the image folder).
What should i do? Would like to try the official release of 2.3.5, but the phone wont see the update file =/
any tips? Thanks!

If you have 2.2 copy the files back on the phone If you dont have a backup you can find here

Try the following:
Boot the phone in Bootloader (pink screen) by holding Vol+, Vol- and Power, format the partition with FAT32, create a folder called "image" and copy the following files on there.
EMMCBOOT - http://www.mediafire.com/?lb6ifvgk72iru4a
AMSS.MBN - http://www.mediafire.com/?d6r45q6p5gew59v
Recovery.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?57njygc8oianjac
Boot.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?6d5i0714a7o9z97
Once the files are copied, just disconnect the USB cable and remove the battery. Then boot into Recovery by pressing the Vol+ and Power. If you manage to get into CWM Recovery, then it's all good, you can install a custom Rom like Oxygen (
https://sourceforge.net/projects/u8800oxygen/files/ ) by selecting "install zip from SD Card" option.
You'll probably have to use the MOUNT functions within the Recovery to transfer the Oxygen.zip file to your root folder of the SD Card.

But if you have locked bootloader then I dont think there is anything you can do...

Tnx for the tip mate, but I have allready tried those files. The phone will still not se the update i put on the memorycard :s

But can you boot into recovery? If so install a custom ROM and then install 2.3.5 from here.

Found out the problem! Had forgotten to format the fat disc in pink mode!

If you have lost your pink screen files, you can search them on the net, I think you ll find them easily

" x " appears on the screen

Malfunction " x " appears on the screen !! help me what is going on

Haha... you'll need more information than that if you want real help.
Based on the limited information though I suspect your phone is stuck in a bootloop. I'd hook it up to the PC via USB and check the logcat. Probably something screwed up.. Maybe time to restore your latest backup.

Did you flash any ROM if so, did you clean your Dalvic+REgular Cache

If you don't have an Recovery:
- Connect your Micro SD on PC
- Download and insert on SD the stock ROM of your Nexus One
- Power ON your Nexus with Volume Down Pressed.
- Autmotically Restore Nexus (You should say Yes xD)
At this time, you decide if you want to be root and install other ROM

you better just list your setup info before doing anything
locked/unlocked bootloader
rooted/unrooted
which recovery are you using
what rom are you running stock/custom
what were you doing when this happened
a couple safe things you can do in meantime is to pull battery and reinsert and power on
if it goes back to X, pull battery and DO NOT power on. Hold down the pwr button and trackball at same time and see if you can get into recovery
the third is hold down trackball/vol-/power at same time while X is on screen and see if you can get to recovery that way
if you can't get to recovery you will need to fastboot new recovery, assuming you are unlocked
once you get into recovery do a nandroid if you are rooted
and copy it to pc as a secondary backup
it is possible you may need to try the passimg method in wiki
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Nexus_One/Guides_&_Tutorials#Unroot_.2F_Restore_your_Nexus
also to do fastboot commands you need usb debugging selected on phone--hope it is

Hello, i have a similar problem with my n1
the phone starts and just shows the nexus X - (waited for 15 min. nothing happend)
i can go to the bootloader / fastboot menu with PWR + (Vol-) but i can not go to the recovery mode. -> the phone reboots and get stuck at the X
the phone is rooted
blackrose / hboot 7.35.5017
radio 5.12.00.08
recovery was ext4
i had a german ics miui rom installed and tryed to install the latest ics miui us rom after it didn't booted the miui us rom i turned the phone off and tryed a few hours later to turn it on to reflash the german ics miui rom.
1.)
i tryed to install a new recovery image ->
recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-passion &
recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1
(still get stuck at the X if i try to go to recovery mode)
2.)
i tryed this one with the passimg.zip but nothing happens if i put in the sd card :/
(with nothing i mean the green text show that the sd card is checking for PASSDIAG.zip and PASSIMG.zip but dosn't found it)
i also tryed:
3.)
erased boot
flash boot from passimg.zip (PASSIMG_Passion_Google_WWE_2.18.1700.1_FRG83_release_signed)
4.)
erased cache
erased userdata
started again with 1.)
5.)
got frustrated and erased system -.-
any ideas?

study it ,thank you
study it ,thank you

Hmm, sorry if its obvious but i have no idea what it could be or what i have to search to find the solution. Would be nice if you could give me a hint. Of course im not asking for a step by step solution. Thank you.
Send from my awesome SE K800i

not sure why you are flashing boot images
do you have a nandroid--copy your sdcard with the nandroid to pc--all of sdcard
are you flashing thru fastboot in command window
did you read my post above on getting to the fastboot screen--can you do that--the one with the 3 androids
pwr/vol-/trackball same time, may take 20-30 seconds
if you can get there, put your recovery image in your fastboot folder on pc, normally tools--assuming you have sdk installed, your phone must have usb debugging checked--I hope
open a command window and change directory to the tools folder or wherever the fastboot.exe file is. Something like:
cd/
cd/ android/android-sdk-windows/tools for me
then on same line type
fastboot devices (it should show your phone H#)
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (or the exact name of the recovery image, checked by right clicking on the img file in your tools folder and looking under properties)
I would use amonra you listed above and check the md5 if possible
hopefully the recovery will flash
if not you can go to the wiki link i posted above and try passimg metthod from there, use correct one. don't add the .zip. Windows will had it automatically.
a side note, DON"T flash different roms without wiping all including System 3 times before flashing--prevents a lot of problems

thank you very much
i already tryed everything else what you wrote but i didn't wiped 3 times... after erasing recovery partition 3 times i was able to flash a new recovery and it started.
Thanks a lot!

Bootloop after trying to downgrade to MM

Hello,
today I tried to downgrade from nougat to MM. After the MM Rom was installed, my phone only shows me the Huawei Brand. The phone does not start, it only shows huawei brand. How can I rescue my phone now ???? Please help
Edit:
If I press Power + VolDown it says PHONE Locked, FRP Unlock
I tried the rollback with this method:

That is unfortunately not helping. If I do so the phone restarts and the Huawei Boot Logo shows up, but I am not able to enter erevory or somethin else. Only thing working is fastboot when I press Volume down.

Make sure you dont have the usb cable plugged when you try to enter recovery.
Have you tried flash the MM UPDATE.APP again ?

Yes I Trier without USB cable plugged in. What I recognised before the bootloop is: The flash of the rollback Version was successful but the phone was then already stuck in bootloop. So i don't even could install the real Version of MM.
Is there a possibility to install the stock Rom with fastboot? My bootloader is opened and I don't Kind if I lose all my data.

You should be able to put the MM update in dload folder of your sdcard, and use the 3 button method to flash it.
Otherwise use huawei firmware extractor to pull the system.img data.img boot.img from the update.app of the MM, and use fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img . Same thing for boot and data

Thanks for your answers and your help. The first method is not working, if I press all three buttons together, my phone just restarts and the Huawei Boot Sign shows up again.
I'd like to try the second method? But could you tell me, how I can find the system.img, data.img, boot.img files and where I can find the HUAWEI FIRMWARE EXTRACTOR.

Use this tool to extract them from the UPDATE.APP file of the MM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
First extract the RECOVERY.img only and flash it with fastboot. After that test the three button method again (make sure that you have the file from MM (2.0GB) in the dload folder). If it doesnt work, try the thing i said before.

OK, sorry for being such a noob. I now installed the Huawei Extractor. Furthermore I downlaoded stock Rom MM B130. Now there are two ZIP Files (like you can see on the picture). Do I have to extract both of them???
EDIT:
There is no data.img in Huawei Extractor. I have taken a screenshot of the files too (you can see it on the second image).

Before I do the steps you discribed I have two questions.
First: I have to recovery images... RECOVERY.img and RECOVERY2.img. Do I have to flash both of them?
Second: I took a SD Card now and created a folder named dload. In it I put the UPDATE.app file. This has 3 GB, in your post you said it has to be 2 GB. So did I take the right UPDATE file or is it the wrong one?

I now managed to flash BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img and SYSTEM.img. Afterwards it was possible to extract UPDATE.app by pressing VOL up # VOL down # and the other Button (don't know the english word). But the installation of the UPDATE.app stops on 5%. Whats the reason for this?

So I have a guess right now: Before I tried to downgrade my phone I uninstalled SuperSu but I didn't unroot my phone. So my phone could be still rooted. Could this be the problem why the installation is not working?

Try to install through SDcard create a dload folder on sdcard and to that dload folder copy ONLY the update.app file, and just like I wrote hold down the + & - & power button and it should say "installing update", make shure you have huawei recovery instead of twrp cause on twrp it wont install youre stock rom. I really dont know what could be the problem: check also if you deleted everything through twrp and install huawei recovery that is a MUST!!!

Where can I find the huawei recovery? I cannot find it!!!

1.)Dont use multitool 8, youre doing everything fine youre using the wrong complicated tools
2.)try to download sdk platform-tools from here (https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools)
3.)Place the recovery.img file to platform-tools folder
4.)open command prompt in windows as administrator and in that command prompt change the directory of cmd to youre platform-tools folder example
"cd C:/youre/path/to/the/platform-tools" then type:
--->>>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img<<<---
it will say dameon tools not running blah blah blah ignore that, you need to make shure that youre end result is succes OK!
and then type:
--->>>fastboot reboot<<<---
and thats it try "dloading" that update.app file through SDcard holding +&- button

Final steps.
I did the
->>>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img<<<--- without problems etc and I received the success message.
and then I typed: --->>>fastboot reboot<<<. The phone booted normaly.
Then I put the update.app file into the SDcard and while it was connected to pc I pressed power and volume +&- button.
The huawei software installation began and freezee at 90%.
What do I have to do?

did you create a dload folder on sd card and placed the update.app in it? is it charged atleast when the green dot appears?
P.S you can NOT!!! use hisuite while instaling the update.app becuase its disrupting the installation everything is doing via sd card.
Youre doing everything well :victory::victory::victory:but youre doing weird things:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:, why are you connecting it to PC when you stored your update.app on sdcard?

Finally worked.
