InDroid 4.3 installation problem

I downloaded InDroid v4.3 and flashed SG3 to InDroid v4.
When i downloaded InDroid 4.3 there was no update.zip but there was InDroid v4.3 Big_Update.
So when i went into recovery mode (I put the Big_update on the 2-primary partitioned SDCard) and tried installing update.zip from the sdcard.
But it said E:cant mount sdcard
And now im stuck with a phone which keeps on looping InDroidv4!!!! whenever i boot it...
My question is... What do I do to make the update work?

first of all there is no CWM recovery in indroid 4.0 if u have flashed the 4.1 version then go to recovery > install from sd > choose zip file (indroid 4.3_big update)
*u r currently doing "SD card:update.zip"
for more info, please refer to the video posted on both indroid thread for update.

Actually, i had a stock rom, flashed it to 4.0... it works sometimes(now it randomly got frozen.) So how do i update it? Do i have to 'install from sd'?
EDIT: Now im on recovery..
Its Samsung recovery Utils- forBML-
i selected apply sdcard:update.zip
but it says in red:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 (or NULL)
(No such file or directory)
E:can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Installation aborted.

[Q] Help Please! can't install any roms

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.
Sent from my MB526 using XDA App

I've formatted the memory card..i downloaded the rom again..the problem isn't with the rom..its in the RECOVERY option..cuz b4 installing the rom the device isn't able to wipe neither the cache nor the data...and after that the rom is unable to install
plus the (avanced menu) isn't showing,
i really don't know what to do next...

Ok.
Just try now with 2nd init 2.0. Insall 1.0.7(it wil ask during install recovery,WIFI nedded)

[Q] Please help me, error while flashing

Hi guys, I hope you can help me.
I have just rooted + flashed my motorola defy plus for the first time (on any device for that matter)
I installed 2nd init, version 0.6.... or something.
Put a rom, kernel and google apps on my sd-card
Then I turned usb-debugging off and rebooted my phone.
Now I can get into bootmenu, and this is what I do:
1) go to recovery
2) select custom recovery
3) then it says: Clockworkmod Recovery v2.5.1.8
E: Can't open /tmp/recovery.log
4) I then select wipe data/factory reset
5) then it says this: Formatting DATA
Formatting CACHE
FORMATTING SDEXT
No app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext
Formatting SDCARD:/.android_secure
Data wipe complete
E: Can't open /tmp/recovery.log
6) After that i select install zip from sdcard
7) then I select choose zip from sdcard
8) then I select the zip file containing the rom
9) And it says: Finding update package
Opening update package
Installing update
E: Can't make /tmp/update_binary
Installation aborted
Now I can't go any further and can't use my phone at all
I hope u guys can help me, and that I haven't F*ed up my phone

I have a quite similar problem.
On a defy+,rooted 2ndinit installed, backup-ed first, download the new quarx05/03 ICS, put the zip on sd, wipe data, reboot and start to install ics, but the message was
''Finding update package
Installing update
E: Can't make /tmp/update_binary
Installation aborted"
Thanks to the previously backup I can use may phone as usual.
What I have done wrong with de ICS installation?
Thanks
PS. Sorry for probable a dummie question:What we have to do with md5 zip near the CM9 Jordan.zip?

A little help please about the subject?
Thank you

I guess that this is a simple and many times occured error, since nobody has any answer....

Does you disabled the usb debugging before flashing?

Yes I do, but nothing change,
Thanks

if I'm not mistaken the last release of 2nd init is not compatible with defy. Try to check this on the development forum. I hope I have been of help.

I'd tried with both 1.0.7 latest and 0.6.1.
With latest, the phone is blocked.
Thanks

I had used this. Try with it
P.S. sorry for my bad english.

Tried, the same errors,
Thanks

I don't know. Sorry. By the time i had used that.

I think you need to go to stable recovery after you wipe your data from custom recovery

I think you need to go to stable recovery after you wipe your data from custom recovery
What do you mean by "stable recovery"? You talk about version 0.6. of 2nd init or something else?
Can you show a step-by step procedure?
Thank you in advance.
However, which is the procedure to un-root a defy+ and to have it with the original, fresh system?

I had flash a new SBF, root with Unlockroot v2.3, anything else doesn't work, 2ndinit v2.0 stable, wipe data/cache/dalvik (same errors), try to install cm9-ics, the same error "Can't make /tmp/update_binary"
What the f.....?

Hi, I have exactly the same problem.. Trying to find a solution but is quite difficult. First I thought it has something to do with the partitioning, as stated in THIS topic. But, in THIS topic, people say that partitioning the SD card is not necessary at all..

@Cretu22: Yes stable recovery is CWM 0.6
Don't install stable recovery! I too faced this issue when I flashed using stable recovery. In snd init install Latest recovery and then try flashing your ROM. That should work..

I did choose the stable version indeed 0.6.7.
Now i did uninstall it and installed the latest 1.0.7, but when I reboot my phone it won't get into the boot menu but just boots into android. Tried it several times, but only with 0.6.7 I seem to be able to get in the menu

Okay!! I hope you were pressing the volume down button when the blue LED came?? Try doing this again all over.. I mean reinstall 2nd init and then latest recovery.. I remember doing this once(instal latest recovery after I installed stable recovery)..

Yes, its working Pressing the volume down button was not necessary with 0.6.7, that was what went wrong. Now the zips installed like a charm

i know the answer and is very simple
the problem is that you cannot create that specific folder.... because it already exist, cmp (connected music player) creates it, just delete it from SD and done!

If it's hardbrick and you are under warranty, then you will have to use your warranty and they will either replace your phone or give you a new motherboard.

so do you know the cost?? i have one more samsung galaxy note with a dangerous kernel , what i have to do ?

read the stickies in the forum. they really describe the problem in detail.

Since you formatted your phone and lost backup you have to flash a stock firmware to your phone via odin and then do anything you want
