HI all,

With regards
<Manic>
There is a whole section titled ROM links, it shouldn't be that hard to work out :/
If you're generally referring to flashing a custom rom then have a good read at the Nexus One wiki, it'll help you understand a little more.

It might help if you read the posting fully. You need to download all three files.
1. RCmixHD 1.0
2. USB Fix
3. 1.0.1 Update
Install them in this order, reboot between each install. And make sure you fully wipe your device first.
What about for Version 1.1.. I think i can download that single file and flash the ROM..
hi,
i downloaded RCmixHD [2.3.3,SENSE 2.1,720p video,tb unlock] v1.1 ROM and flashed it after full wipe..
During the time of flashing i am getting this message.. Kindly help me in clearing this problem
E:Missing file:
ext/system-VR/0419/libCBLexMgr.0419.so
E: Verification failed
zip verification failed

Disable signature verification(If you're using RA Recovery, you can see 'toggle signature...', and I think Clockwork also has such option) and try it again.
Hi,
Is it Safe to flash Unsigned ROM.. or i have to wait for Signature once full ROM is there..

Although it warns about unsigned ROM/updater, I think if it is from reliable developer, it's usually OK, though I feel developers should sign their .zip files after packing is done.
thanks.. i have flashed already
Hello, I am having a slight issue with TWRP while trying to install a rom. I have been able to successfully flash a kernel and make a back up using the recovery but when I tried to flash MDOB version 1.6, I received the error- Cant open zip file. I thought maybe I had a bad download so I downloaded version 1.7 and tried again with the same failure of being unable to open the zip. I've seen the error mentioned when i searched for a fix but never found a clear solution. Is there a setting I'm missing or a post i should read that i haven't stumbled upon yet? Thanks for any advice or guidance on how to correct this failure. I have attempted to mount the system as well prior to flash and moving the file to my micro-sd to attempt from there.

What version of TWRP are you running? If it's current, have you tried reinstalling the recovery itself?
First sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place, because I'm pretty novice in this area.
Good Night all.
Sorry for my bad english, I'm using a translator because my language is Portuguese.
I'm trying to install the rom the 12/10 but is giving the following error:
__________________________________________________________________________
.....................
Starting Installation...
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E: Error executing updater binary in zip
Error flashing zip
Updating partition details...
Failed
_____________________________________________________________________________
I followed the following tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2515036
As I said, I'm newbie at this. So I would like someone to teach me very detailed on how to install.
Thank you.

Not sure about the error that you say you're getting but these were the steps that I followed to install it on my Defy:
1. [IMP] Made a nandroid backup
2. Wiped cache and Dalvik cache.
3. Installed the recovery file [http://defy.bytekiste.de/cm11-nightly-defy+/update-recovery.zip]
4. Rebooted and cleared cache and Dalvik cache (again).
5. Installed the ROM and the GApps file.
(A couple of steps here might have been redundant but, hey, it worked and it's always better to be safe than sorry. )
Also, try installing the latest version of the ROM - more bugs have been fixed compared to the 12/10 version. Best of luck updating your Defy!
Hit the Thanks button if you think this info was useful

the link you posted contain no tutorial. For tutorials search in general and find the appropriate one.
Hello
I have formatted the system in twrp and I can't do nothing except going into twrp. I want to flash the stock system but it says:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 8
Error installing zip file 'external_sd/update.zip'
So where I can find the stock recovery to be able to flash the original system recovery.
Thank you.

Just FYI , Next time you create a thread asking for things , you NEED to use the SEARCH feature of this forum.

I already tried several times and each time I start flashing zte_a2017.b03_bootstack_by_drakenfx.zip it says:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 6
Error installing zip file 'external_sd/ZTE_A2017G.B03_BootStack_by_DrakenFX.zip'
So what do I do now????
Posted this as well over on the official Asus site, but I've always found XDA to be full of great answers (& awesome devs) so posting here as well. Okay, so my fault for being impatient to wait for the gradual OTAs but now here's the problem. I rooted the phone and unlocked the bootloader, then installed TWRP for recovery. I backed up my phone. Then I tried to install (flash) new ROMs, starting with some official ones from the ASUS website, then branching out to Lineage, CM, Ressurection, Dirty Unicorns, and uh, something else, don't remember. Anyway, nothing works. I cannot install from SD card, from phone, or from ADB sideload. Nor can I now restore my backup.
ALL ROMs give me errors, I took screenshots of some recent attempts all saying zip signature verification error, lots of other ones indicating the wrong ROM. I researched that error, don't remember exactly what it said, but the workarounds posted were to unzip the ROMs and edit a file, deleting the part that checks for the right version. I can understand if a third party ROM has this problem, but ALL the ROMs - even the ones downloaded directly from Asus?!? No, I think there is another problem here though I could be wrong. Trying to restore my backup gives me either MD5 failed to match or Extracktarfork() Error 255.
So now the system partition is wiped and so nothing will boot at all. The one silver lining is that I CAN still boot into TWRP recovery. Another issue which may or may not be related is that (Just before the system partition got wiped during another attempted ROM flash) I lost the ability to write anything to the external SD card. The contents were readable but I could not write anything to it at all. I would chalk all my ROM problems up to a screwy SD card except that ADB sideloading didn't work either so ... I don't know what to do here. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
If you need any additional info, just ask - I probably just forgot to put it in the post. Just in case, I am working with a Asus Zenfone Selfie, ZD551KL, Z00UD, Android WW, 32G internal, 3G RAM. Oh, one last thing, probably just a bum cord but sometimes especially now ADB in windows doesn't see anything & I have to use linux.
Was originally hoping to get the latest Android N installed - Lineage/CM, but at this point I would gladly just go back to the stock ROM if I could finally get it to work. Thank you all again for reading my question & for any help or suggestions you can offer.
EDIT: The more info the better the help, right? I removed the SD card- trying to retrieve my info from it. I can view, just not copy (or write) so using a data recovery program to copy my files off, then I will try to reformat it. Anyway, I tried sideloading and installing from both CM and official Asus zips so I could post the errors - & they have changed a bit. Sideloading remains the same: CM gets to around 50% then stops with the line "Total xfer: 1.00x". The Asus ROM never starts. It gives the error "cannot read ..." but checked it with 7zip and it says there are no errors. On the phone side, obviously nothing on the Asus ROM since it never even starts, but the CM says "assert failed: ....", then gives an ERROR: 7. Copying the files to internal storage & trying to flash them from there, Asus ROM says Zip signature verification failed. Then "Unable to mount storage". CM says assert failed, ERROR: 7, & Unable to mount storage. Hope that helps!
EDIT2: Also tried the suggestion of deleting the asserts part of the ROM, but it says "Invalid zip file format". Any ideas on what the proper zip file format would be? If you open up 7zip as a program there are some options there, what would I need to do differently?
Did you fix your problem cause I fix mine my device can boot to fast boot mode if you
Did you fix your problem cause I fix mine my device can boot to fast boot mode if yours can I will send you the original recovery boot manger then download the latest firmware from the official webpage the go to bootloader and update the file it will work for sure but now have a software touch problems I tried to change theme and enable gloves mode it worked fine for a little time
Same issue..
Hey Lobstercat,
I am having the same problem as you..
I have tried TWRP (format /cache, /dalvik, /system and /data) with an unlock bootloader from an Asus Selfie. I have made a backup of it before trying the above. TWRP was able to restore the UL-Z00T-WW-1.12.40.382 OS fine.
But when install through TWRP, on UL-Z00T-WW-1.13.40.661-user.zip, it gives up on authentication, of which I also turned off with the same result.
In sideload mode it failed with the following message;
sudo adb sideload UL-Z00T-WW-1.13.40.661-user.zip serving: 'UL-Z00T-WW-1.13.40.661-user.zip' (~79%) E: fota_return_code 408
I have also tried "sudo fastboot flash system system.img" it failed, with the message "system.img was too large" this rendered my device unbootable and TWRP cannot restore the backup grrr..
I have the latest fastboot and adb from google went through the same above procedure with the same result, TWRP terminal shows files which I cannot be deleted with rm -rf command
I need to update with the OTA updates to UL-Z00T-WW-1.15 from Asus first before moving over to LOS.

Resolved..
I was able to sort it out through this link.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-2-laser/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-t3317515
"In order to update your firmware to MM one you can either flash ASUS MM rom in stock recovery or flash a package that will update your fw which you can download right here"
Download that link, sideload it with no issues and lineage OS 14 with no issues.
Now running Lineage OS 14. Damn its quick!

Excuses excuses, but bottom line just don't get around to things very fast very often. Did you ever figure it out? It was a long time ago now so I assume you did....
