ROM MANAGER "an error occured while flashing your recovery" - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hey guys, I want to install a new rom onto my acer liquid e because 2.2 froyo is kind of boring.. but whenever I try to flash my recovery with rom manager premium I get " an error occured while flashing your recovery" this has been going on for days and I just updated rom manager to 3.0.10 hoping it would fix this but it hasn't... I have rom manager premium and I tried reinstalling, fixing permissions, still nothing... any help would be much appreciated.... THANKS!
P.S. Any word on cm7 for the liquid?

Hes this been resolved?
I am having the same issue.
Thanks

I had the same problem too starting yesterday.
After checking device.js downloaded by Rom Manager in sdcard\clockworkmod\download\rommanager.appspot.com\manifests
it seems that the download url mirror1.kanged.net/recoveries is not valid, and it return "Gerrit is moving! Looks like your DNS has not updated yet. Have no fear, it shall in time."
Maybe they're switching hosting server, not sure, and doesn't seems to hear anything about this yet.

I am having this error as well starting yesterday.
I rooted my phone, had no problems. Flashed Iced Glacier using CWM Recovery. I then used ROM Manager to flash stock recovery so I can charge my phone with the power off.
Last night I reflashed CWM recovery and installed CM7 RC2 on my Mytouch 4g. All is well, however I have been trying to flash stock recovery again so I will be able to charge my phone with the power off, but whenever I try I keep getting the error.
I tried uninstalling ROM Manager and reinstalling, deleting the recovery images on my sd card, reflashing the zip file with 3.0.0.6 and stock in it. Nothing has worked so far and I have yet to find an answer. Any suggestions?

[Q] CM7 Bootloops

I've noticed other people seem to be having this same problem and there hasn't really been a distinct solution that I can see, so hopefully this question will be helpful in the future and not repeatative.
I've been trying to update to CM7 from CM 6.1.2 on my Evo. I followed instructions from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902051 and downloaded all the recommended software. First I tried to just flash the rom, then the kernal, then the gapps. All seemed well at first, and I got past the Evo 4G screen, but it got stuck booting on the Cyanogen animation (the arrow just keeps going!)
Then I tried to wipe the Davlik-Cache, and rebooted again. I left the phone alone for about 45 minutes, and it still got stuck on the Cyanogen animation.
Finaly, after searching through the forums, I found another post which suggested I do a hard reset then flash the rom, kernal and gaaps then clear the cache and davlik-cache. Still, I'm stuck on the animation. I have a nandroid backup, so I can get back to 6.1.2, but I'd really like to get CM7 working, anything else I should try?
You should't have to do the kernel separately unless you have a specific reason for doing so the ROM comes with a kernel for you. I had a similar problem with my HTC however I was able to get it resolved by installing gapps. Here's what I did -->
Used ROM Manager to go back to working ROM
From working ROM, accessd ROM Manager and chose rebooted into recovery mode
Once in recovery cleared/wiped everything (cache, data, delvik) installed gapps then cm7
Restarted
It did take awhile after restart to get going however once it did it worked marvelously!
Hope this helps and good luck!
Reboot
Similar Problem, Defy CM7 Bootloop
The first time i tried installing CM7 I got a boot-loop. I have tried at least 7 different tutorials all with different variations of flashing this and wiping that yet none yield results. Still stuck at boot-loop.
The most recent thing i have done was used RSD Lite to flash
"JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTCEE_P016_A016_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf"
this got my phone running again, i then pulled off some magic by rooting using a combination of super1click, Z4 and installing superuser myself. after that i copied the files for a bootmenu into my /data/ folder. using CWM Recovery v2.5.1 flashed
"freq_F_US_342_107-850-1700-2100-signed.zip"
to get my 3G running again, and gave up of CM7.
If anyone has anything that could help id appreciate it.
(ps. i've tried many variations of wiping things and re-flashing things)

[Q] mt4g android.process.media has stopped error

installed new rom from rom manager and now i get a continual android.process.media. i had cyanogen mod 7.0.0 stable. installed the old rom to no avail. i have tried various roms and nothing. where is the error?
Firstly don't use rom manager, you are much better off booting in recovery and flashing manually. Rom manager has been known in some cases to cause issues
Secondly make sure you wipe system/data/cache when moving from one rom to another.
Thirdly if doing neither of the above helps, re download the rom. You may have got a bad download.
HEY NOOB, WATCH THIS
OHH, BOOBIES

Help! boot loop

ok so i rooted a few weeks ago and downloaded the usual apps. super user titanium back up and clock work mod. tried to flash a rom with clock work mod and got the e:signature verification failure message. found a post for a kernal that made clock work mod actually work so i tried to flash a rom. zSimplyAOKPV5_Dark to be exact. now it sticks on boot screen. i have searched for hours and cannot find a way to fix my problem. its my first rooted android and first attempted rom flash and i botched it right off the rip. please help?
Depending on what you did beforehand, you have some options.
If you have backed everything up previously, just flash back to stock with one of the one-click stock roms in the Development section (they're in a sticky).
If you haven't backed everything up, try holding V+/V-/power until it reboots. If it doesn't take you to recovery, you can try to flash a kernel (most likely one that would match the version of android/rom you were running prior to this flash) and see if it lets you into recovery. You'll have to flash it with either Odin or Heimdall, after rebooting into download mode (power off, hold V+/V-, insert USB).
If that doesn't work, though, the stock flashing would probably be your best and/or only bet.
it wont allow me into recovery though i can get to download mode by pulling the battery and pressing just the volume +- and plugging in the usb. i was trying to flash an ics slim rom. thanks for your very speedy response.
i have now tried to flash a stock rom however it is not working from there even with the stock kernal. now it is hanging on the at&t screen.
ok i got it. seems the kernal i flashed to help cwd work properly was the culprit. now i dont know how im going to flash this ics rom im looking at without it.

Flash corn kernel if you have stock gingerbread
Sent from my SGH-I897
The utility in my signature can help you flash the Corn Kernel so that you will have CWM.
I have corn kernal and odin 3 on the computer at home. Ill do that tonight. Any suggestions on a good stable rom for a noob? Preferably ics. I hated posting for fear of being flamed as a noob. My wife keeps making fun of me for it so I kinda have to get it done. I want to fix hers also. Its a great little phone it just seem a bit buggy to me. Very laggy. Thanks for all the help.

Maybe start with a KK4 based rom such as Legend and then move up to ICS after that. I only say that because there is a bug in ICS that could render your internal SD unusable. It's rare, but when it happens you will not be happy.
Still unable to get corn kernal to flash. I've tried a few of your guys fixes but I'm gonna have to get some other updates to my computer first.

Jellybean update stuck

Hi Guys,
I have been searching for a solution to my problem, but have come up empty handed so far, thought i would post to see if anyone can help me here.
I have a Xoom EU 3G, it currently has a EOS ICS Rom on it.
I am trying to flash it to the EOS Jellybean ROM.
I am copying the rom, and gapps to the SD card, and rebooting to the clockworkmod Recovery V3.2.0.0, and perform the wipes and resets as the guides tell you.
I then select the install from zip option, and choose the new rom, how ever it kinda get stuck on "opening update package" spends ages there, and eventually goes back to the recovery screen. I thought it finished, so i installed the GAPPs, but after rebooting it was still running ICS..... any ideas where I am going wrong?
Thanks
Try flashing eos recovery and then try it
i'll see if I can get that recovery on it, i was trying all sorts of things yesterday, and now the tablet is stuck on the motorola logo :/
I may need to use the computer to flash it now
Well I managed to change the recovery rom to the EOS recovery touchrom, and i downloaded the nightley 101 onto my sd card, but when i go on the step install from SD card it still get stuck on opening update package..... i left it for over a hour and eventually it just returns to the main menu, and doesn't flash it... i'm a bit lost on this.... any ideas?
Must be a bad download, try downloading a new one.

[Q] Error mounting sd card in CWM

Okay so I've been all over this site and linked to many other articles to proceed and hope to fix my issue but nothing seems to be working for me. To get you guys up to speed it's a SGH-T959V and I started out with having jelly bean 4.0 on it then upgraded to 4.2.2 which I occurred an issue with that and had to revert to getting gingerbread flashed back on. It's been a little while since I've done so and kinda forgot how I did it. I've read about using odin and heimdall but no luck getting my phone to connect with either of those programs.
Recently upgraded to 4.4.2 slimkat which was working good (still some bugs, since it's weekly) and had TWRP recovery on it. Problem started as I was starting the process to flash the new update of 4.4.2 and I created a back up and recovery for it prior to flash but now its gone. During the flash of the new update it had occurred some error and now went to Semaphore CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5 and has a bunch of errors to it and I cant even format or mount an sd card. I've tried using a couple different sd cards same issues. I can boot into download mode no issues.
Anyone be able to help me out? I am pretty stumped on this one and have tried many things to get it to work. Also are there any programs I could use besides odin and heimdall to flash a different version of CWM or TWRP via usb?
Thanks guys let me know if I left anything out or if you have questions to help me out better.
Hey guys, here are a couple of pictures of what it looks like while in CWM and what its saying.
Hey guys never mind, I already figured out what I was doing wrong. All I needed to do what open a file I downloaded in this thread to get it back to stock gingerbread. Now I am going to do some more flashing to get it back to 4.4.2 slimkat. Thanks
