Noob question about weird problem updating to jb - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys:
I have a doubt.
I had installed cm9 rc2 on a nexus s i9023 then i used a backup to revert to stock ics 4.04 and received the OTA update.
But when it was about to install i got the following message
Install untrusted package-----> this was in the upper part of the screen
THIS CAN BE UNDONE------->
CLOCKwordkmod recovery v6.0.0.7
finding update package
opening update package
verifying update package
E:failed to verify whole-file package signature
E: siganture verification failed
After that i choose to go ahead an the update installed
It also asked me to disable recovery !
is the unsigned package cmw 6... or am i wrong and i have installed a no official rom?
Help me to clarify was going on !

I could bar wrong, but you may have signature verification enabled within CWM. And also, you are given the option to keep CWM upon flashing the official update.

i have check an signature verification is disable in cwm but i think that the update when throw stock recovery (android guy in the background) that's why i think that the package that the message refres is cmw, but my question is why? What does have to do cwm with the update if the stock recovery was working?

Did you use stock recovery to flash? If so, my opinion on stock recovery isn't good. Lol.

Double check !, CMW Recovery was used !
Check twice with OTA and manually updating with the update file place in sd card
Same result !
Guess it happens because of CMW Recovery as you alreday told me , maybe CWM does not recognize the signature or something !
Guess learn something new today !
Thanks man !

Get the same verification error, so how did you finally proceed to intall the OTA-update?

Another thing I would recommend would be reflashing CWM.

I need some help installing an OTA

Hi there, i have a non rooted desire s with s-on my rom number is 1.36.415.6 there is a small OTA for this rom that updates it to 1.47.415.1 for some reason every time i search for the update my phone says that there are no updates for your phone.
i have the update as a .zip file so what do i do to install it?
is your phone rooted with clockworkmod recovery? If so you can boot into recovery and select install zip from sd card. Browse to the file and install. You can boot into recovery through rom manager.

Have you tried pushing via adb? Your best bet if you really want it is to factory reset.

As dan-fish said, have you tried the "install .zip from sd card" option in CWM recovery & manually selecting the .zip file?

my Desire S is a European version and i have flashed the official middle east rom using a gold card, so i think that the IMEI doesn't match with the rom that's why HTC aren't pushing the update to my device!

If your phone was branded you'll probably not receive it at all. The Official update of Froyo 2.2 for the Desire was rolled out months before I got it because Orange UK were faffing about blocking all the service they wanted me to pay for that others got for nothing! S-off and get a rooted rom, your much better off.
my device is unbranded

[Q] "Installation Aborted" error message in clockwork mod

i go into recovery from rom manager to flash a ROM or a kernel but i keep getting an error saying installation aborted with an open android and a red triangle.
Possibly a bad download. Try checking the MD5 Sum.

Can be also an incompatibility with CWM recovery. If you re-download and have problems again, try chaning your recovery.
I unrooted ,locked the boot loader and again rooted installed the twrp recovery still I get the same error .... Even when I download busybox form market it does not install it says I'm not rooted . But i am able to flash kernels but not roms ..
Are you sure that the rom is zipped well?

I was wondering if it was zipped well, cause CWM rom signature is disabled, so I tried zipping with WinRAR instead of 7zip but to no avail.
Does the fact that I had to OVERWRITE files in order to modify the updater script change something ? If I understand correctly from the thread you pointed to, META INF lists the files the zip should contain. Since I had to overwrite some, I guess it's normal that install fails, right ?
Damnit! All because I cant get the ray to self identify as ST18i or ST18a but instead I dont know why it says it's a ST18..
This happened to me once, because I wiped my sd card. To bypass this, I erased the first line of the build prop in the rom, so cwm (or twrp) will not check if the device is compatible with the rom.

Flashing an fxz will completely return you to stock, so you will be able to download and install any update for your phone.
Since you are in India, you will want to flash this fxz. Good luck!

I believe you need to flash via RSD or boot AP Fastboot to return to stock that way.

You have to use RSD lite or Fastboot to flash the fkz. Look in the noob thread found here!

[Q] Recovery problem, can't find "install zip from sd" option.

I am using a micromax canvas L a108. I recently flashed a recovery to my phone. When I booted into the recovery mode I couldn't find any option to install superusersu.zip. There was an option apply update from sd card. When I tried to flash the zip file through that option the bar completed half and installation aborted message was displayed. What should I do? I urgently need to root my phone. Thanks in advance.

Unable to update to 12.1

So today I saw that the 12.1 update is downloaded and asking me to install it. But, when I do try installing it the screen is stuck at the Cyanogen Recovery.
The usual options in recovery screen are displayed, why isn't the OS updating?
FYI - My OPO is rooted and also has TWRP recovery installed. I also tried disabling the Update Cyanogen Recovery option but the same option.
Any assistance would be great

You can't flash the OTA with TWRP recovery. You can either flash the stock recovery and then install the OTA, or you can download the full ROM zip and flash that with TWRP.

Sorry, a little question (and sorry to the OP)
Ive try to install the ota manually (i was rooted with twrp) flashing back the cm recovery, but it doesnt work still.
So ive flash the twrp 2.8.6 (for the baseband not installing prolems) and downloaded the full rom file, flashed in twrp without any wipes... Its all ok now, should i have problems with this method?
The baseband is 241,is correct?
Thx for helping
