Try reformatting your external sdcard or try another. Many ppl experience the same thing you are.

Same Any fixes?
Well I hate to ask the obvious but inside your update.zip do you have the file "META-INF\com\google\android\update-script"?

Did you ever get an answer to this?
It's because you didn't delete the file contents of META-INF before resigning the zip... you need to leave the directory there but delete the signature files. Otherwise it will sign and verify correctly but throw the subject error.
which files
Can you tell me what i need to delete? I'm trying to flash cyanogenmod 6 and when I open the zip file I'm not sure what which files I have to delete.

I have a rooted nexus one, downloaded that file and then didn't wipe it,,
Just renamed it to update.zip (in the SD card) and flashed it.
I got it from mobiletechworld.com/tag/android-2-2/
I dont know why its much bigger than other links (~80mg) but it worked with me
N'joy
It has to be on the root of your sd card and NOT in your download file.
Use an app like astro, and move the file from the downloaded folder to the root.
i have this problem
where is this file from, are you rooted and did you do a wipe?
can someone confirm that it works?
That sounds like you haven't gone back to the stock image/recovery/etc. first.
I still have same problem using this file.

Anyone know what just happened? ::crying:
I have just had a similar problem, stock rooted tried to update to 4.2 OTA when it was updating I got the android on his back with the red exclamation sign. I had no idea what was wrong until I read your post.
I am not sure how to look at the log file so I don't know if I have the same problem as up but the file you referenced I changed the extension so it was not recognised to allow Flash to work. I have now changed this back but update system in setting says that the system is up to date but I am still on 4.1.2.

Is this like flashing a new Rom?
Does it wipe all personal data and apps from the Nexus7 when the update completes?
When My galaxy SII upgraded from gingerbread to ICS it took me days to get it up and running how I had it before. I doing stuff like using E-mail (Oh wait all my settings are gone). Ill just have a look at my love film list and add some rentals (Oh wait the apps gone). You get the picture.
Had the same Problem yesterday.
I extracted the corrupted Files from the 4.1.2 Firmware and replaced them in the system.
Finally it worked and i am @ 4.2 now without loosing my Data.

If you could expand on what you did? I have changed the file extension back on the file in question. My problem is that since I failed the update, the system says no update available and I am stuck on 4.1.2
I had a similar problem with zoneinfo.dat.
However, I followed this topic and it worked with keeping root

Thanks, problem is I would lose all my user data opposed to a upgrade.
All files I saved before were not deleted, just had to reinstall my applications.
Or make an backup with Titanium

Ok i'll try.
Sorry for my bad english
I'll do a step by step howto.
First of all you'll need to download the 4.1.2 FW from Google.
Make sure, you choose the right one.
Take your Nexus 7, go into settings---> About Tablet and look for the Build-number.
Google OS
Then you will have to download this Tool (SGStoEXT4)
(This Tool will extract the Image into a mountable (readable) Image.)
Then you download THIS
(This Tool will mount your Image and you'll get access to the orig. Systemfiles you need.)
Ok lets begin:
Once you've dowloaded the Firmware 4.1.2 (Not 4.2 !!). It should be a .tgz. Just rightclick it, and extract it into a new Folder.
In this new folder you'll see a .zip File. Extract this too by choosing "Extract here".
Now there is a File called SYSTEM.IMG. This is File you'll gonna need!
Now open the downloaded Zipfile "SGStoext4.zip" and doubleclick the .jar to start it.
You'll see a window that pops up. Drag and drop the SYSTEM.img into this window and it will extract the .img into a File called "system.ext4.img" which is built right in the same folder, the system.img is.
Now install the second Tool you've dowloaded called "Linux-Reader" and start it.
Once you startet it, choose "Mount Image" on the left hand side.
Let everything like it is and click Next.
Choose the system.ext4.img by doubleclicking it.
Now you should see the mounted Image called "Linux Ext Volume 1"
If you doubleclick it, there are all the original files from 4.1.2.
Create a new Folder on your PC and call it Systemfiles (or whatever).
Go back to Linuxreader, mark all files and folders (Strg+A) and rightclick them and hit "Save".
Now click "Next" and choose the Systemfile-Folder as the Outputfolder.
You're already done.
Copy the new created Systemfile-Folder to your Nexus7 (in the dowloadfolder threre, for instance)
Start the Updateprocess and wait till it stops with the currupted File error.
For example:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Verifying current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.odex", "21a89
E:Error in /cache/094f6629314a.signed-nakasi-JOP40C-from-JZ054K.094f6629.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Write down the path (marked redcolor in the example) and search for it in the new Systemfile-folder.
The path in the new Systemfilefolder will be the same as it shows on the updatefailure.
Replace the corrupted File with the one of your fresh extracted ones using Rootexplorer on your Nexus 7.
Start the Updateprocess again.
If there is another corrupted File error, replace that File too.
Once you replaced all corrupted Files, you're done.
I replaced 4 Files before the update runned through properly.
I hope this helps and please let me know if it worked 4 u.
Alex
Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou. I followed your instructions with success.
I am now on 4.2 and have learnt some new stuff too
Manged to keep root with root protector..
Thanks for the in depth reply.
The other problem I was having was that I could not update again because it said I was already up to date. The way I found to overcome this was to go into apps and 'clear data' then 'force stop' the Google Services Framework
This worked like a charm.
Thanks mate.

The solution by DroidBonzai is correct.
A shortcut for some people, particularly those that are rooted and sideloaded adobe flash and then the Android Browser, is that you may have renamed
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.odex
to
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.odex1
and similarly with
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk
to
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk1
as those would have caused a conflict with the sideloaded Browser.apk
Renaming those two file extensions will allow you update to 4.2 via recovery without installation error. It certainly worked for me!

I really have to appreciate the effort u have taken to help with this thing, and its a genius idea u have discovered to replace the faulty .apk
Anyhow, i did follow everything you said, like i replaced the GooglePinYinIME.apk which was having problem, but somehow the error persisted.
I am attaching an image along with this post. I have been trying to update my nexus 7 (4.1.2) to (4.2) for so long, getting problems in it.
I'd very much appreciate your help.

Hey Alex,
I tried everything you said above, downloaded the 4.1.2 from google, then extracted it, then fount the file which was giving me problems in System.img (GooglePinYinIME.apk)
Then i replaced that file on the tablet using root explorer.
Even after doing all this, the error persisted, WITH THE SAME FILE..
I tried it 3-4 times, but no luck.
I also installed the GooglePinYinIME.apk in nexus 7 to see if it works, but it went in vain.
What would u suggest now?
Regards,
Ashutosh
That worked perfectly! Thanks so much!!

Invalid file

Hi
I have an annoying problem with a file I can't delete. When I do any operation in TWRP I get this error :
E:error opening '/data/property////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////E:error: Too many open files
It seems to be a file that is linked to its parent folder. I have tried deleting it with various root file explorers and with TWRP file explorer.
Anyone have an easy way to delete the file? I read about a utility called "fsck" but I'm not sure it will fix this invalid file.
Thanks

Invalid zip format Galaxy Tab A6 (SM-T285)

invalided zip can mean all sorts of things
The zip is corrupted - download the zip file again
The zip is not meant for your phone
You have incorrectly edited the zip
The updater script is incorrect
The update binary is not for your phone
The zip is not a flashable zip - look inside and make sure there is a META-INF folder - if not its definitely not a flashable zip
