Issue manually updating Nexus One

When I try to manually update my Nexus One with the newer non-OTA update. Everything is fine until I get to the section where you can use the trackball. From there I get, "E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command" Later, after trying to verify the package I get, "E:signature verification failed" and aborts the install. Tried someone's advice about taking the battery out and putting it back in but still nothing. Please advise.
I assume your bootloader is unlocked. What recovery are you using? Amon_RA's?
My bootloader is not unlocked, but will be today. I was under the impression that as long as the file was named "update.zip" it could be done without it. Ah well. So today I am going through the steps to put the desire rom on the phone.

I'm having the same issue, also not rooted. Its really annoying me and I'm quite worried about it since I'm not receiving the 2.2.2 OTA and I'm worried I won't be able to install 2.3 when it arrives.
If anyone knows a fix please reply!
This is some really good progress.

[ROM-BASE] Stock 1.17.651.1 Rooted, Deodex'd for dev's to base off of.

After getting request's to post this on its own thread... here's the stock, rooted & deodex'd rom that has been fixed... Superuser, HTC_IME FC's, and the updater script!
Dev's, use this as a base for your roms... If you are new to emmc partitions and updater scripts you can use this as a reference on how to properly mount, unmount and format partitions within the script. If you have anymore questions please post them on the 'Developers reference' thread located in this forum.
This rom is not going to be maintained, however i more than likely will update it as new OTA's rollout. Please only post rom development related items in this thread.
Stock--Rooted, deodexed 1.17.651.1 base rom!
thanks for this
I only wanted to add that as this is the base ROM that seemingly will be used to base other ROMS of off, that the VVM part of this ROM is broken. Uninstalling the package will not work, nor will updating to the latest version. Having to resort to Google VM.....
Not bashing by any means, just wanted to let you know, so maybe this can be fixed before it spreads to more ROMS as they are built. Only thing I found, OH, and the ROM is not R/W by default, seems its Read only.... easily fixed.
is there a reason why i get a stuts 7 error when flashing this?

I flashed the rom to see what u were talking about... after updating VVM, it's working perfectly fine. Make sure you're on mobile network as it seems to not want to update via wifi.
As long as im correctly understanding you.... i don't know any rom that mounts file systems rw by default. You have to manually mount them via adb shell, or adb remount.. or a root app.

Shouldn't be any reason, best way to help is to use these commands using adb shell right after you receive an error in recovery.
Code:
adb shell
cat /tmp/recovery.log
I have only flashed this rom using ClockworkMod 3.0, so i cannot say 100% that it works on 2.5... but so far it looks like you're the only one with an issue.
FYI: There's a guide posted on how to use ADB in this forum.

On mobile network... :-( Flashed the ROM x2 and what I get (Over network) is a continual "Verifying your account information" when opening VMM V. T.5.1.0.48, until it times out. Then when I select settings for it, at the top its greyed out and continues to say "Please wait, verifying ......".
When I press the button to "Check for update", it says "General Failure. Please try again at a later time."
Anything I'm missing>? I have re-downloaded the ROM, as well as re-flashed 2 x to the same conclusion....
Thanks in Advance Prelude......

Cybernook, sprint may be having issues where you are. I just tested it and mine updated, tho it took a reboot and had to make sure BT and WIFI were off.
After installing the rom I did the "update prl" and "update profile".
been using this rom ever since posted
no issues
works great
Apologies to you Prelude. I called sprint yesterday and they informed me they had been having VVM issue for 2 days (Up until my call). All is updated and working fine today!
Flash on........
I installed this rom but I can't get adfree to install new host updates
I get an error saying that there's no partition to install the host updates.

Thanks a lot but It didn't solve my problem.
Actually I gave up on this rom for now.
For some reason the hosts file in etc/ or system/etc is a 0 file.
and will not read copy or move for nothing with root explorer or titanium.
Weird.
Thanks a lot anyway
the link to the rom is broken, gives a 404 not found error. can u pls repost, because im trying any and everything to get my phone up and running back on sprints network.
thanks
Any chance of a new base for the latest release?
CAN ANYONE point me to a WORKING LINK to the original evo shift sprint stock rom??? I can't find one anywhere on the net. Has to be a zip file too.
THANKS!!!

Are you looking for the RUU , or this particular Stock Rooted Rom? If you cannot find a link you could just pull the Rom from the RUU. Then run it through the Kitchen.
Download link is down

[Q] Cant Update my HTC One X

I dont really know much about all this ROM stuff but a lot of people said they've had an update and my phone is still running on 4.0.3 I haven't had any message saying I need to update my phone and when I click "check for updates" it doesn't do anything. I went to the htc website and downloaded the RUU ROM utility update to manually update it but whenever i run the wizard program where it guides you through the whole process it gets to the part when it says its verifying my device and an error pops up saying my device isn't connected when it is.

The update is only out in Asia. The only way to get it right now for most of us is to unlock your bootloader, install TWRP recovery, and flash a custom ROM.

Lenovo A850 OTA Firmware s126 22 02 2014
I just got the Lenovo A850. The first thing it wanted to do is download the OTA Firmware update. It failed!
Nick 2014 did the phone just keep asking if you want to update to the latest firmware every once and a while without doing anything? Do you know where the update is downloaded to?
Coolosal, did you have to do anything special for it to work OTA?
Is there a way to force the update because an update available does not show up in "about device".
Thanks

@mateo,
after a month the phone ask me if i want to upgrade the firmware with title "A850_ROW_S116_130922_TO_A850_ROW_S127_140303". The download of new version complete successful and i was select update now. The phone restart in bios mode and trying to update from sdcard, unsuccess to the end.
You can find the archive "update.zip" after you download it and don't do the update, in: file browser/build-in storage/googleota.
Remember! If you select to do the upgrade and phone change in bios mode and failed, the archive dissappeared.
I read somewhere "..i uninstall the calendar from phone and i can't complete the upgrade, then i reflash the phone and the upgrade works correctly"
I uninstall the calendar too because it have only chinese, i reflash the phone but nothing..
If someone else doing any different and have success please tell us the way.
@masakaty,
This is the version who came to me.

your phone has to be 100% stock or the update will fail. no root, no deleted/frozen bloat, nothing modified. if you don't want to do this, you cant take the update.
ok, thank you very much. So i just need to do a factory reset and then update phone then reroot ?Also are there any roms i can flash for the update?

usually custom roms don't contain all the needed files for a proper update. you need the factory stock file.
edit, sorry, missed the first part. yes fdr, then update, then re-root.
hey mister u need to manually download the latest and updated rom for it and then u have to put into sd card and then go to bootloader and try to flash it if u don't any trouble...
i dont know whats up with these jack holes re-wording and repeating what i already said today but its really starting to p me off.
