I just used format system and format data in my wildfire with the clockworkmod recovery. Now when i turn on the phone i only get the bootloader screen. I thinks i deleted the system with this.
What can i do? Should i buy another phone?
You need to flash a rom onto it now.

Ok, do you know some tool like flashtool or something like that. I can't flash any rom because i always get this error: "E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip (bad)"
Thanks for answer
I solved the problem, i just installed cyanogenmod 6 of 60 MB...I think the problem is in my sdcard, when i try to install cyanogenmod 7 i can't because it has 78.8 MB and throws the error "E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip (bad)".

i cant post directly into the thread.
sorry if i missed it but i am unsure how i should install these files??
do i use xrecovery?
Yes you should use xrecovery
install the Rom and flash it with xrecovery , if the Rom file you downloaded is. Zip (not . Rar) go to xrecovry install custom zip and chose the file. Zip if the file. Rar unrar it and put it in backup file in xrecovery and then go to xrecovery menu select backup and restore choose restore, select the file you have put it there, when finish reboot the phone
Hope I helped

I guess there is no way that you can install custom ROM without xrecovery, I hope my guess are rigth
Anyway, you can get xrecovery from here.. if you don't have one

You have to install CWM recovery to flash GingerDX. Then you have to reboot to CWM and choose Install update ZIP from sd card, find GDX zip file and select it to flash it.

how can i install CWM please sir guide me step by step i will be so thankful to u!
Use this to install CWM recovery and copy custom ROM zip file to sd card. After that reboot your phone and tap screen several times until it goes to CWM. Then go to Install update zip from sd card and find it. Press on it, it will ask you to confirm your choice and after flashing ROM do full wipe. Of course make NAND backup before.

Hello..I had WajkIUI_multilang_1.11.18_RTL, which was working just fine then i tried a new rom,,i didn't like it so when i tried to go back to the old rom,i just can't finish the installation,when i use the RSD lite to install the original rom it works fine then i root the device,then i installed SndInitDefy then when i go to the recovery menu i can't install the rom,,i've tried manytimes , but the same thing happens:
when i try to wipe the data or cache: E: Can't open /tmp/recovery.log
so i go to the next step by choosing the installation of the rom and i get this message:
E: can"t make /tmp/update_binary
ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.8
insallation aborted
Please help my..i don't know what to do now,i went to the Wajkiui rom page and red everything carefully ..but still can't change my rom, i need to insatll the Wajkiui rom
right now the rom is : shadow-128 2.3.4
that alot
Which version of 2ndinit did you use?
The best for wajkiui is 1.4.2
Or you can try to select stable recovery instead of latest recovery.
I'm using the same config(shadow_2.3.4-134_DFP-10.sbf and WajkIUI_multilang_1.12.16_ICS.zip)
i'm using the same version..i've tryied everything in the Recover to install the rom,but i still get the same error message
This is what i'm going:
Rooted the device, installed SndInitDefy_1.42.apk and activated the Sndindefy
i copied the rom into my MC.
started my phone
Entered the boot Menu
in the RECOVERY menu there are only two options: ( Custom Recovery- Stock Recovery )
in Custom Recovery- Wipe data/cache =
formatting data...
formatting cache...
formatting sdext...
No app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext.
formatting sdcard:/.android_secure...
Data wipe complete.
E: cant open /tmp.recovery.log
then i choose: install zip from sdcard
i chose the rom zip.
--installing: sdcard:wajkiui..
Finding update package..
opening update package..
Installing update...
E: Can't make /tmp/update_binary
Installation aborted.
Ok...
I dont't know what it could be...
Try wipe dalvik cache too.(under avanced menu)
And try to format your sd card.
It worked for me with the "shadow_2.3.4-134_DFP-10.sbf".
rooted by "root4defy134.zip" (applied in stock motorola recovery)
then installed 2ndinit 1.4.2 (2.0 worked too) and installed the latest wajkiui.
Try downloading the zip file again. Maybe it's corrupted.

Hi man, This happened not installed the Recovery and went into the system. To install the rom: 1. Install Recovery 2. do the ROOT 3. Follow the tutorial poster of the rom you want to install!
I have installed the 2ndInit, i tryed to instalo it by the custom recovery, and get this error, i already have root.
Thanks, I solved the problem updating my 2ndInit, now i'm installing the XPERIA D 3.4 thanks
