Error executing updater binary in zip (TWRP)

I'm getting this error when trying to flash lollipop roms. I can flash Kitkat roms fine as I'm currently running xdabbeb VS982.5 1.0.0 (G3 rom), but it won't let me flash any lollipop rom. I installed twrp via the autorec program which installs 2.7.0.0 then I updated twrp within twrp with the flashable zip.
Please help
Thank you

Anyone?

Seriously no one knows? What is everyone else using that is flashing the latest 5.0.2 roms?
What am I getting this error?
Please help

Possible Fix
I've also had this problem. The only way I can seem to fix it is to also download the .md5 along with the rom itself. Just make sure its in the same folder as the rom. Everytime I have that problem with TWRP this seems to fix it. Let me know if it works for you!
Edit: Also I forgot to mention, if one isn't available to download I can help with that.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try. If there is no. Md5 what do I do then?

All you need to do if it comes to that is download an md5 checker on your computer. Just curious, what rom are you trying to flash?

I tried resurrection remix and liquid lollipop roms. I had no issues with the initial 5.0 lollipop roms so I'm not sure what changed with 5.0.2.
So the md5 checker generates the .Md5 then you just put that on the SD card with the rom?

Resurrection remix should have an md5 on the download page right below the rom itself.

Can you point me to the program to use on my computer? Do I just load the .zip file in the program to generate the .md5sum file then put both the zip and the .md5sum file on the sdcard before flashing?
Thanks

Nope, I downloaded the md5 file along with the zip and I'm still getting the same "error executing updater binary in zip".
Any other suggestion? How is no one else having this same issue? I'm using the latest version of TWRP 2.8.3.1 probably like most people. I don't understand.

Try to reflash the TWRP.. or maybe is something wrong with the zip file
Use the TWRP compiled by blastagator

Nope, still getting same error with latest twrp.

Finally got it working. I downgraded TWRP to 2.7.0.0 and the lollipop roms are flashing fine now.
Thanks everyone for your help.

Hi, I am having the same problem. Actually my LG G2 was stuck in boot loop with secure boot error. I used SRK tool to flash the partition files as well as TWRP recovery 2.8.6.1. I have wiped everything and there is no OS installed. I am stuck in TWRP recovery screen [cannot downgrade /upgrade]. I am using and OTG cable to flash the cm-11 custom ROM but it is giving me the same error. Can anyone help ?? It has been 10 days I am trying and my phone is dying please help...
Thanks in advance...

Thanks is advance....

@[email protected] i think kk aosp room need jb bootleader

Hello everyone,
I am running a D802 on stock Lollipop and installed TWRP 2.8.6.0 via AutoRec. Now I booted into recovery, wiped System and Cache and got the Error message when installing CrDroid (Marshmallow 6.0.1). Now I tried installing TWRP 3.0.2.0, which succeeded and then downloaded the twrp 2.7.0.0 zip to try that as the ROM still wouldnt install. But it wont install the older TWRP. So I am asking for help to either
1) Install TWRP 2.7.0.0
or
2) Delete the getprop lines from updater-script (after I removed them I get an error 6 so i probably removed too much?)
Thank you in advance
(Guide for Error 7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522762)
EDIT: Someone said installing another Kernel might allow installation of the ROMs. Which Kernel could work for my phone?
EDIT 2: When flashing TWRP 2.7.0.0 it says "assert failed: run_program("/tmp/loki.sh")==0". So what exactly am I missing on my phone? Is Loki the MM Bootloader?
EDIT 3: Could it be that the build.prop was deleted when I wiped system? Would be weird if that was the cause, but I simply dont know..
Edit: Booted in Downloa Mode and flashed v30D KDZ with the 2014 LG Flashtool. Works with Stock ROM for now

I'm slightly worried with Lenovo...last time I tried to upgrade rom from rooted stock Kitkat to stock lollypop, my phone got bricked.
I've never faced such silly issues with my earlier phones i.e. Samsung Galaxy 3 , Galaxy Nexus, Xolo etc.
I need a step by step process so that I can successfully go back to to stock and then take the phone to service center as there is some issue with Vibration

You post at the end of the year. People got their holliday
Ok, I'll try to help you.
Because you're using XOPLAX (LP), custom recovery (TWRP), and Lenovo A6000 Plus. Right?
I suggest you to flash stock LP.
The Steps:
Download stock LP ROM from HERE. (Latest S030). Save it to PC first.
Open your downloaded file (A6000-s_S030_151030_WCAF.zip) using extractor app, eg WinRAR, WinZIP, etc.
Extract file System.zip (The biggest file in A6000-s_S030_151030_WCAF.zip).
Open System.zip using extractor app.
Go To META-INF\com\google\android folder.
Replace update-script file with new update-script file (Link Below, Extract first). Save your System.zip
(Optional) Double check the update-script file. Make sure it has been replaced.
Save it (System.zip) to your external card.
Enter to custom recovery (TWRP).
Flash System.zip

This error can be fixed easily .I faced this status 7 error many times.
But it is very easy to fix this
For entire process u need es file explorer so install this app first
1.Extract your stock kk rom zip
2.Go to meta-inf/com/google/android/updater script
3.Edit the updater script using es-editor u will get this option in es file explorer
4.Delete the lines from starting word i.e. 'assert' to next semicolon(; )
5.Now the first word in upd-script will be 'mount'
6.Zip the rom again.
7.Flash via Custom recovery

I am not able to find "assert",Is this the first word of the update script??
the first sentence of the script is-- mount("ext4","EMMC","/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system","/system);

According to the first sentence ,that you given ,the upd script is correct no need to delete anything.
Just flash it bro upd-script is well all right.Flash the zip

Thanks Sourav_8434, finally my mobile came back to life.
I have to edit the mobile name from lenovo A6000 to K30-t in updater script located in the "meta INF" folder . But it still failed in cwm and showed status 7 error ,so I flashed twrp via adb and minimal and then flashed the edited stock ROM twice because after flashing it first time it failed to mount data ,so I flashed it again which solved this issue and rebooted the mobile .I mentioned the whole process so that it might help someone else having the same problem.

Open the update.zip and from the root of the archive delete:

-uboot.img
Now From "Meta-inf" folder delete:
-imei.dat
-machine_match
and finally from "Meta_inf" ->com->google->android->updater-script delete the lines from the first attachment and save it.
The updater-script must look like the second attachment.

Yeah I knew that but I wasn't sure if the device verification was removed
The G didn't work, none of the roms worked because it couldn't install the system partition....
I give up and I'll wait for the LG V30 to be available in France...
Thank you so much for your help and your answers disnomia so sorry I couldn't make it work ?

This may sound silly but my phone is already on flyme os 6.1.0.OG. Will flashing this zip with flashify enable me to install other custom ROMs (cynogenmod, mokee)? I have exhausted every effort to unlock the MX4's bootloader because it seems impossible for me to downgrade the international device to 4.2.8.2A to use the apk unlock. I'm also trying my hardest to avoid bricking my device. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks

This roms is only for flashing with custom recovery(twrp), unlocked bootloader.
Trying this roms on official rom it will brick your device.
If you try to downgrade from official 6.1.0.0G to 4.2.8.2A from flashify better try from stock recovery.

Yeah, I tried using stock recovery to downgrade to 4.2.8.2A but I always get 'Firmware Corrupt' no matter how many times I re-download from different websites. I've even tried going to 4.0.4I before going to 4.2.8.2A but I even got the same 'Firmware Corrupt' message in the stock recovery for the 404I downgrade process.
I've tried these urls:

http://downloads.meizufans.eu/mx4/firmware/stable/4.2.8.2/a/update.zip
Is this because international version mx4 can't be upgrade or downgrade to 'A' version? Or Android Lolipop roms can't be downgrade to kitkat roms? Please share your thoughts. Thanks

Try to downgrade to 4.0.4i and then upgrade to 4.2.8.2A and hope this will be the trick.
