Yes i used Twrp i dont know how to ta screeshot in twrp, but thats the message i got when tried to install it.
It's been a while, but I think I had the same error when I first tried to install LOS14.1. I was coming from Marshmallow and the issue was the TWRP version not being compatible with LOS14.1, Nougat. My fix was to update TWRP. Kinda late, but hopefully useful to someone...

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 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...

@[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
Hi All,
A big major noob question, I'm still trying very hard to learn.
Where is the " Install zip from SD" option in the new TWRP 3.0.2-2 recovery? I'm trying to unlock my BL via BL unlock kit. In the instruction, it says to use "install zip from sd" option to install the zip files. I cannot find this option in this twrp menu. I then tried to install zip from the install option, selected external device, and install zip. After i swiped to confirm to flash, it started to load then proceed to comeback with an error. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!
The zip file you are trying to flash should be on the root of your SD card (as that's gonna be the easiest place to find it)
Then when in TWRP, you click "install" and when you do it should start off in the root of your SD card, then you look for the zip that you wanna flash and click on it .

Hello,
Thanks for the reply! Yes the zip files are in the root folder. I try to flash it and it says install zip failed. the process where it stops are listed below:
Checking for Md5 file . . .
skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.name") == "p996a01
updater process ended with ERROR: 8
Error installing zip file "/external_sd/STEP-1-3-B20-FULL-OTA.zip
updating partition details . . .
. . . done
The instruction did mention that the sd card must be in FAT32. Could it be that this is what is causing the problem? How can I check whether the external sd card is FAT32 or not? Can I check that from my A7? thanks!

I think I see what you are doing wrong here.
It looks like you are trying to flash an official update threw TWRP .
If you are, it won't flash.
I don't exactly know what you are trying to do, but after re-reading your error, I think that might be what you're doing and why you are getting that error.

It may very well that I'm doing something wrong as I'm extremely new to all these flashing. I'm trying to unlock my BL using the guide here So basically the instruction tells me to install these zip files from my external sd and when I tried i get the error message.. I'm not sure where I messed up as I had followed all directions to the last detail. Not sure how to proceed from now on, any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Hi,
I downloaded and flashed successfully the OmniRom image on my phone this morning, but not the EAS Kernel (v2) provided by @darkobas few days ago. Everytime I try it (I download a couple of times, in case something wrong happen) I get the same error message on TWRP.
Could not find 'META-INFO/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file.
Error Installing zip file '/sdcard/ROMs/OmniRom/darkobas-zl1-easkernel-v2.zip'
Do I have to use a more recent TWRP? the one I'm using is 3.0.2-0
Or is it I'm missing something?
I searched on XDA, but I didn't see anyone reporting this.. so I suppose it's a really noob issue.
Thanks for the help!!
try downloading again

It worked like a charm now @darkobas! Thank you!
Working! Thanks @darkobas
if you have successfully flash the onim rom,change to "flash image" then flash the boot.img extracted from the eas kernel zip.
I noticed that @androidlover5842 built a new TWRP for us with 3.2.1-0 and I haven't noticed any bugs while using it. This is from TWRP Builder, so it's unofficial.

Thanks, I installed successfully the unofficial TWRP 3.2.1-0 (TWRP_lineage_ghost-08051822.img) to my Moto X 2013 (XT1053).
But I notice my device model is now "lineage_ghost". This cause conflict with ROMs like "xpe_10.0.2_r66-20160929-ghost" or "aokp_ghost_mm_unofficial_2017-09-18_0933". Tomorrow (May16/2018) I will test the ROM "lineage-14.1-20170212-NIGHTLY-ghost" with this TWRP due right now I'm in a Chromebook.

At the end, this TWRP changes the device name to "lineage_ghost" and then any ROM fails due the verification of device.
> I found you can add the device name into the file "updater-script" of the folder "\META-INF\com\google\android", but after test this I faced the problem with an "invalid zip file" where I found it's better to delete the first line of the same file, but the result was the same.
I already sent an email to @androidlover5842 explain this.
My solution was to install the TWRP 3.1.2.

Hi!
I'm trying to install an update of OxygenOS. I wanted to install this with a .zip folder via my TWRP custom recovery (TWRP 3.2.3-0). However, I'm still having an issue with every ROM that I'm trying to install: "Invalid zip file format!", following by: " Error installing zip file 'OxygenOS.zip' ".
I precise that I have this issue with every .zip ROM that I'm trying to install...
I actually don't have any ROM installed on my OP5, so I can't boot right now.
I'm only fighting with my TWRP recovery and my Bootloader !
The Android version I had before that was Android 7.1.1( old boy...)
I'd be pleased if someone could help me solving this issue...
Have a nice day & Thx !

I tried so much, but actually I really can't flash nothing...
I'm now having : "Updater process ended with ERROR: 4"
I also had ERRO 7 from TWRP, but I tried everything, like changing a part of the code of one script of the ROM, but nothing is working.
