Unable to install update.zip - Verizon Droid Charge

Im trying to update the modem from EP4D to FP1H using CWM, but when I start the installation, it gives me the error
file_getprop: failed to stat "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory
E:Error in /sdcard/668fc9f366e2.update_SCH-I510_EP4D_to_FP1H (1).zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried re-downloading the update file, but nothing I've tried has worked.

Just thought of something. Do I need to convert back to the stock file system in CWM before I can install the update? I'm on EXT4 right now.

You must rename the update file to just "update. Zip" but make sure you are stock ep4d before updating.

You can't be on anything custom when attempting to flash that package.

ok, thanks. I used your stock conversion pit file & rom Imnuts to get back, then I just took all the OTA updates to get to the FP1 modem

re-download the rom...you got a bad download
Wow. speedy response.
I should have mentioned - I have downloaded it twice and checked the md5, which matches... is there someplace else I should be getting it from (besides the link in the virtuous thread itself) ?

Did you check the MD5 of the zip on the phone or just the PC ?
Edit: as a side note which 3.0 version are you coming from ? If it's earlier than 3.1.0b6 you'll need to superwipe.
I did not check md5 of file on pc, shall try and if that fails, recopy... Ty again etc beforevformat sdcard and trying yet again.
I figured I'd need to super wipe, but as another aside, the virtuous documentation quite clearly (and incorrectly) says no wipe needed for releases with the same major number.
Thx goi-n-dal - the md5 of the copied file was indeed out. Recopied it from osx terminal and md5 checked out ... FWIW copying this file in osx itself (non terminal) would not give me a corret md5 - only when I copied it through shell did it work....
Anyway, then superwipe and flash. Away!
Now that its flashed.. im noticing slow slow gps lock... hmm

Help needed!

i need help with modifying / creating the updater script in the meta-inf folder of a custom rom.
the reason for this is that, i just added ota updates to my rom, and everytime i push an update to my device (test), it gives me the following error when installing in cwm:
E:/ failed to load keys
/res/keys No such file or directory.
thats happens when the app tries to do it automatically. then i try it manually by toggling the signature verification in cwm.
and my guess was pretty much that it had something to do with the updater script.
so guys, please help me out and fast!
thankyou!

I've checked build.prop just to make sure I didn't forget to restore it after installing Google Wallet but I'm still having this error. I've tried restoring an old nandroid and reflashing but I still get the same error. Any thoughts?
I found this: http://forums.androidcentral.com/optimus-v-rooting-roms-hacks/182438-solved-assert-failed.html which suggests modifying the updater-script in the .zip file but I've never really tried this before. Can anyone explain how to do this?

With 7-zip right click on zip file and open archive. Navigate to update script and open with notepad. Edit file and save.
Thanks, I was actually able to get it to work just by updating to the latest version of CWM using ODIN.

You are trying to install an US dlpkgfile, and you seem to be on 10.4.4.18 currently. But I still need more details. Rooted? Unlocked? Did you ever modify/delete any files on /system before the upgrade? Did any previous attempt to upgrade fail?

OK, then this is apparently the first update that tries to patch FacebookPoster.apk and .odex, so these files need to be there. Restore the original app from your backup (you did make a backup before deleting, didn't you?) and then the upgrade should work.
If you don't have a backup, you call still extract the app from a full firmware image if you have Linux on your PC (unzip, unzip, blobunpack, loop mount the ext4 filesystem from blob.APP, extract the required file), or you can ask someone else to extract it from their rooted stock tablet.

Instead of waiting around, do a factory reset then start over again, but keep updating until the end and don't install any user apps in between. Only install user apps once the upgrade is finished.
Flash Asus full .30 version, root, ota rootkeeper to save root, upgrade, restore root.

Rom Help

When installing my selected ROM, I get this message:
Finding update package...

E: Can't open /sdcard/egb_jb_alpha1.zip

This just refers to a bad copy of the file, either by a bad download or it wasn't repackaged correctly. Try another download or extract and re-zip on your PC.
