Is there anyway for me to get the build name after I already installed it?
no, you are suppose to install log collector first
He's asking how to find the build number, not the download link. While on the G1 home screen, click the menu button, then click on settings, scroll to the bottom and click "About Phone" then scroll to the bottom yet again and wah-lah! The build number.
cant he abd in and get the url of the update? got any pics of the about phone screen showing 1.5 fm?
Probably, lets just see if he can get us some screens and the build number first.
So you posted and than ran too far away to handle clicking on " about phone " this gets old so fast...It's getting like android community lately
official build info posted.. second post this link

"If your phone displays Kernel version 2.6.27 as above, then you have the latest update."

Question,
Since we know the update link will be something in this neighborhood.
https://android.clients.google.com/updates/signed-PLAT-CRB43-from-RC33.????????.zip
Is there any rhyme or reason to the question marks? Is that sequence pulled from somewhere on the phone? I think we have a few people with the update, maybe we can track down that sequence?

Those question marks are the first 4 bits (8 characters) of the sha1sum of the file. In order to get it you either need the actual URL of the file (duh) or you need the zip file itself to run sha1sum against. You can see this if you take the RC33-from-RC30 .zip to a linux box and run:
Code:
sha1sum filename.zip
EDIT: Those are the only 2 ways to get that sequence, i believe the .zip file is deleted from the phone after the update is run so even if you could access the "secret partition" where it's stored, you can't really do anything with it.

Guys,
I'm so angry , I just rooted the nook glowlight and am unable to install any apk files.
I'm always getting "there is a problem parsing the package", whatever I found on the internet :crying:
Is there no file explorer by default on it ? And why this parse error ?
And most websites just crash, grrr
Anyone, anyone please anyone : HELP MEEEE
Do you have ADB working? Can you see a logcat?
Do you know that these APKs are actually good and designed for API level 7?
Also, is installation of apps from unknown sources enabled in nook color tools? Most (all?) of the NST rooting packages include it, but you do have to set the flag to get packages found via the internet (rather than the google store) and copied to the device to install.
I get that error sometimes when downloading .apk files from some sites. Your browser might not be downloading the file with the correct filetype suffix. Can you see if it has the .apk suffix on it? I've found that some browsers do better than others with handling this file-type. If you can get xScope browser or Opera Mobile I think those were better. It's also possible that a retry of the download will work, or that the file itself is just bad.
I get the same error on my nook simple touch.
the same apk's work on my galaxy nexus.
Anyone knows what might be the problem and how to solve it?
A logcat will tell you exactly what the problem is.
Use ADB and get a logcat.

Are you sure these apks are compatible with Android 2.1 Eclair? Not everything will work. Which programs are you trying to install specifically?

I haven't thought of that. but you're probably right.
I'm surprised the error message is not more obvious though.

Wrong forum.
Try installing any other package with requirements : 2.1+
In Settings check "Allow Installation of Non-Market Apps" .
Install apk from SDCARD.
I'm 90% sure you are just trying to install a package not compatible with A 2.1.

I have a similar problem...
new to rooting and romming, finaly!!!! got my ms770 lg motion back to stock and I too am getting the error " there is a problem parsing the package".
I noticed that if I download an app, it installs fine, no problem...but when I transfer from my pc, it shows up with that error message when I try to install.
I have read a LOT of these forums , trying to determine how to solve this riddle...they all say try THIS file manager, or, make sure installation of non-market apps is checked, or some such thing...
Well, the "allow installation of non-market apps" thing IS checked...still no dice...
What do I do with the log once I get it?
Basically....can someone please point me in the right direction? Please?

Hi all.
I'm working on a custom ROM for the Nexus 10 based on the latest 4.2.1 build.
It's almost finished, but I'm struggling with a few things and though someone might be able to offer some assistance.
1: I'm trying to add the advanced power menu like is found in some other ROMs for the N10, but am hitting dead ends everywhere. I've found a few guides online but none seem to be relevant to this device. My ROM is de-odexed. I have decompiled the framework-res.apk file but can't find any clues.
2: I'm trying to disable OTA updates and hide the "System Update" option from the "About Tablet" menu, but can't seem to figure it out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I know both are possible as I have seem both working in other ROMs, but I don't want to rip off someone else's work.
Cheers,
Will
With some help from a fellow forum member I was able to figure out how to remove the "System Update" button from the About Tablet menu.
I modified the device_info_settings.xml inside the settings.apk file and recompiled it, then re-cooked the rom and flashed it and it worked perfectly.
Now I just need to find where the updater.apk or equivilant is hiding!
In the meantime I cooked in fotakiller.apk which seems to do the trick.
Cheers,
Will
Hi folks!
Just bought myself an S5, have successfully rooted the phone, and decide to install the Alliance Rom with no issues.
I then downloaded the Black Glass OTA Theme, went into recovery mode and tried to unzip the file (Using Philz touch) - I received the following two error messages: "e footer is wrong, e signature verification failed"
I'm on android v4.4.2 - I backed up prior to this so I've just restored back to factory settings for the meantime, but I'd like to know why I'm getting those two errors if possible?
Many thanks!

Could be many reasons, you don't have enough information yet to know. Crucially, you failed to paste the verbatim error and the context surrounding it here. Or even link to the theme you refer to. So we don't have much to go on.
As it is labeled as an OTA theme, it will be specifically formatted for that custom ROM. So wouldn't it make more sense to seek help in the custom ROM support thread?
The actual error could be anything from a corrupt download (did you verify the md5 checksum or try downloading the theme again?) to a marginal USB cable (did you try a different USB cable and port?). Or many other things. Did you search the support thread to see if anyone else was troubleshooting similar issues?
.
Sorry, I'm completely new to the forum so don't know my way about.
How would I go about obtaining/providing the verbatim error?

You can copy and what you see on screen from the log that Odin or Kies makes. Or alternately make a screenshot.
Most questions could be expediently answered by a search of the forum too. But for some reason, most people don't try that.

I appreciate that, I did try looking via the forum before asking but didn't find any mention of 'verbatim'...
I also searched for the errors I am experiencing and whilst I found several other threads, none are a similar scenario to mine.
I am not using Odin or Kies, I was able to root my phone successfully, and installed the Alliance Rom with no issues.
My issue occurs after downloading an the OTA update/theme and then going into recovery mode > Install Zip > Choose zip from /sdcard > OtaDownloads/ > Install Black_Glass_S5
I ticked to check the MD5 sum, it came back with with 'MD5 check: error'
Signature verification causes the 'E: footer is wrong and E: signature verification failed' errors.

Your search technique needs polishing. If some particular keyword doesn't work in a search, then use a synonym or reword your search query.

And there is crucial information that you didn't provide earlier. The very reason why I wanted the verbatim context. We are't psychic and can't help you effectively if you don't provide a detailed account.
Adding those details is a huge improvement. You selected a feature (check md5) without understanding how it worked. That caused an error. You then asked us what the error meant without telling us that you had done that and not providing any context or details for us to work with.
The error message, in context, tells us that you either tried to check md5 on a file that doesn't have a md5 - therefore a spurious error. Or the file was profoundly corrupt.
.
It's not my intention to be vague, I simply do not know what information is relevant/beneficial to you.
I deleted the file and then re-downloaded a new copy but it still won't unzip the file, the issue also occurs for another OTA file.
If there's specific info I can provide then by all means let me know and I'll provide it.
Appreciate the help and patience - evidently I'm still a noob when it comes to all the features/tools.

If you were already an expert, you could pare down the details in your post to the minimum amount needed. But when seeking help in an area that is new to you, you should provide the maximum amount of information. If in doubt post more, rather than exclude something when troubleshooting.
Nothing impairs someone from providing effective help as much as missing crucial details. The only things you should withhold are personally identifying info e.g. serial numbers.
Someone knowledgeable trying to help you can easily sift through too much info. Not the reverse.

Do you mount your SD card into a USB card reader and then use in a USB port on your desktop or laptop?
because if you accidentally made the "E" port into "read only" on one file, or anything on the drive it could have locked the entire drive down, which to me is exactly
what it sounds like,
put the card back into your desktop, right click as if you were ejecting drive. select properties> preferences> share file settings and set to "Everyone"
yes i know its old, but its not a bad thing to bring up to answer for other newbies right on front page.
thanks this helped me a lot

"Hey i'd rather you do the work for me" kinda thang is a bit annoying. People are so silly sometimes.
Considering NVidia decided to make their naming scheme wonky as all hell after 3.0, I'd like to set up a post that will help users capture the download links when a new OTA is released. This will help all users get a direct link to NVidia for their devices' OTA as well as help me with my OTA library.
Capturing the Download Link
You must have ADB installed to do this
1) Open the "system update" application on your tablet but do not tap "download"
2) Open up a command prompt on your computer and type "adb logcat" but do not hit enter
3) Plug your tablet into your computer. Once your tablet is fully connected and recognized, proceed to step 4
4) Hit enter on the command prompt. As soon as you do that, tap "download" on your device
5) After a few seconds, unplug your tablet
6) Search the command prompt for the download link or upload a text file with the text from the command prompt
You will need to do this twice. Once for the incremental OTA and once for the full OTA. Between downloads, you will have to "clear update data" to clear the first OTA you downloaded. Both "Clear update data" and "Check full update" can be found in the options menu on the system update application.
Please, if you see that the links for your device were already captured, do not make a second post about it.
I really do need the help of the community here as I do not own all 3 versions of the tablet. I appreciate the help as this will allow me to keep the library of OTAs updated.

You might consider following the thread All Things K1 [sb_na_wf] as the ROMs for that device have mirrors in that thread as well as some K1 specific caveats in dealing with TWRP and other custom recoveries.
