hello
i have been trying to build a custom rom for my phone usually i am able to pass installation phase in recovery mainly on sense base rom(i think it pure luck) but always have problem when rom boots up and start up phase come.
But now i was trying to add my own flavor to miui rom but always end up with this massage :- EEROR 6
can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong and solution to remove this error???????
i am one big idiot nooooooob
Error 6 is a tough one. Its probably your updater-script. One single out of place character or space and you will get an error 6. Did you edit the updater-script after ROM kitchen generated it?
I think I have
Thanks
Its working thanks again

I started again from scratch
I did not make much changes this time just added some apps, new themes, bootanimation and boot audio
I am still a noob and learning thanks for help
Error 6 problem was because I think I replace updater -script with update - script when creating the update.zip

Hi there.
I want to install a custom rom.
But I've already applied the tweaks like v6 supercharger in stock rom.
Will this affect the installation of custom rom?
Are there any chances of bricking my phone?
Thank:s

Wait.
From cwm go to advanced backup and restore and restote everything one by one without boot.img
you will boot in your backup with merruk kernel.

I had the same problem few weeks ago and was unable to fix it.
But you can try Amarullz Script, this is perfect for me.

ive tried installing that... But it never worked... Can u please tell me how to instal it?? Thanks :thumbup:
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
Ok buddy,
Ive installed evo x3 from a fresh stock, then boot up 1 time.
After that installed all Ota updates from rom, another reboot and setup rom.
Then installed hells fusion 50#.
Reboot, put amarullz script
Give permissions rwx r-x r-x.
Reboot two times.
First reboot takes few minutes, second is a bit faster.
For detailed instruction read his thread.
I can live with longer boot time,
because i got more space.
Hope i could help you.
Umm so the a2sdx zip?? I tried to instal... It says install failed. Please upload the zip u flashed?:thumbup:
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
Or is it a different way?? Please elaborate on the installation please? I tried to go through the thread... But I couldn't really understand. Thanks.
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
My fault sorry.
extract the zip and put the 40ad2sdx manually in init.d folder and ggive right permissions.
That should work.
Let me know if you have problems
Can we install without a data wipe?
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
You mean the script? If yes then yes.
Remember do everytime a backup if you change something, it saves a lot of time in the worst case
Some of your data will be moved to your 2nd partition in sdcard with this script.

Hi,
Can you give some more details
Did you build from source?
Port it from another devices?
Simply unzip a ROM for your device, make changes and rezip?
When you flashed the ROM was it a status7 error?
You say you made changes in the updatet-script, what were the changes?
The more details you give the better answers you will get

Dude I took my base rom as the standard custom rom for xolo q700i- the x rom and I ported it with the galaxy Quattro stable cm... it had almost the same specifications........ I had updated the updated script of x rom by cm rom but then I used original updater script of x rom... This guide I took was from YouTube on porting and he was from XDA.....
So you took a ROM from a similar device, replaced some files, apks and libs, then changed some things in the updater-script and rezipped and signed?
Is this about right?
If so you will need to be a bit more specific about what you changed in order to help you fix your issue, again, the more specific the better your help otherwise I and others helping can only give the best guess on what to do

Dude the guide i saw told us to just take files from the port and put it into base ...... i had seen another guide and had replaced the meta inf file but then wen i flashed it said something about
It being a bad file so i replaced the new meta inf file with the original meta inf file but i dont know now what will happen shuld i flash it .......(u can ignore this) i also had a question dat when u rezip with winrar should the zip file be normal or best mode .........it asks .........when we archive it .....(u can ignore this)

so dude yes it is the status 7 error regarding the build.prop ....... so i need help to edit my updater script so should i use the updater script of the base rom .........or do some major editing ...
Thanks for supplying more information, now I have a better idea of how to help.
You should use the update-binary for your device, not the one ported,
All editing of the updater-script will need to be done in UNIX format, not windows as EOL differs, if your using windows be sure to use notepad++ and set it up properly,
I use 7zip normally not winrar but it shouldn't matter, you need to have compression set to store,
It has been years since I have tried to make a ROM in this fashion but I don't think much would have changed, the point your at now is to get it to flash (not get the ROM to work) this means you need to fix the status 7 error, which will be done by fixing your updater-script
If you want, post a copy of the meta-inf folder for your device and the one you are porting from an I can help further
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks so much.......... Ur thnx meter is getting one more thanks
Dude should I replace the whole Meta in folder or only the updater script....
Take a meta-inf for your device and replace the updater-script from the other one and swap it. Then you'll more than likely need to edit it to flash on yours
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Sorry I didn't understand anything.... I just swapped the cm 11 meta inf file with the original meta inf file.....
Well you can't do this, you need to have the update-binary for your device specifically and you need to edit the updater-script to work with yours as well.
So keep meta-inf specific for your device, and only swap updater-scripts, then you need to edit this updater-script to match the partitions of yours as well as make sure there aren't any get_props that conflict.
I highly suggest reading up on updater-scripts so you understand the changes that need to be made

@demkantor has guided you very well.
U should take advantage of it.
I repeat once again.
get the update-binary from any other ROM specifically made for your device.
Then modify the existing updater-script.
Make sure Mount points are correct.
That's it.
USE NOTEPAD++ else surely if you would get status error.
Good luck
