[q] md5 help needed - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
This is my first post here on xda and I have a problem that needs solved. I have a HTC Sensation XE with CWM 5.0.2.0 and i have the dreaded MD5 mismatch. I edited the folder name to Stock_Backup when I tried a new ROM, after flashing the rom I remembered that I forgot to install the gapps after I got stuck in a bootloop. I then tried to get back to stock and I got the words that have haunted me for the past 3 days MD5 mismatch. Of course I tried to rename the folder back to the time stamp, but that did not work. I tried editing the .MD5 file with Notepad++, that also did not work. I sorta need my phone as I use it for a number of different things, I also don't want to sent it to HTC for them to say I have to pay a fine out of my Nexus7 money jar. PLEASE HELP ME!!!:fingers-crossed:

If u can enter recovery just flash a new rom again with a full wipe.
Gapp are just google apps, not installing them wouldn't cause any harm.
Not sure if relevant for your phone but are u HTCdev unlock? if yes flash boot.img separately.

I've tried that and it won't boot into recovery....crap, my parents are going to kill me!:crying:

[Q] [URGENT!] Bootlooping due to flash wrong PG58IMG

Hi all,
I have a problem with my Sensation due to my own fault.
I want to flash ARHD ICS rom to my phone, and I started with rooting my Sensation. I followed all instruction til installing the Recovery (PG58IMG).
I downloaded two versions of PG58IMG (one for ICS and one for the other), but I copied the firmware for ICS version to my SD card and already installed it. Now, my phone already S-off but cannot reboot into homescreen. It keeps rebooting it self in white hTC screen (after I installed the ICS firmware).
I don't know how to fix. I tried to read the troubleshoot in the post but I still cannot fix it. Does anyone have a solution??
Thanks in advance

If I understand you correctly you flashed the firmware upgrade BEFORE you flashed the new ICS rom? If so you'll need to get your sdcard card out (and get your computer to read it) so you can rename the PG85img on your sdcard so you can get back into recovery so you can flash the new ICS rom.

Yes, I flashed the upgraded firmware before not only I flashed ICS rom, but also I get rooted. Now, I can't flash any rom as well as su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip or su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip.
It still keep bootlooping. I tried to flash the other firmware, but it showed 'CID incorrect'. I don't know how to fix now
Did you check MD5 Sums before you flashed the ROM because it sounds like a bad download so re-download the ROM and reflash

I did check MD5 sums for all files I downloaded and it is corrected.
Now, I'm curious that whether it is possible to flash the upgraded firmware before being rooted.
And of course you need to be using the right version of the firmware for the rom you want to flash. Mike's latest uses 3.24 per here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
I don't know if you can get into fastboot or not, but you should be able to check the CID of your phone there, and download the right firmware for your phone. If your phone is carrier independent (i.e. didn't get on contract) then the HTC__xxx variety should be good.

Thank you so much for your link. I can boot my Sensation into the homescreen now. For my problem, I have to download and flash the older version (3.17) to fix it.
Thanks all of you for your reply again.
+1 for me, solve with a new download .
Just flash the Mod, the bootloop is normal.
I got the same problem, before i flashed Revolution Rom i used that radio package. After the radio package flash, my phone wass stuck in a bootloop.
I took the memory card out en removed the zip file en flashed the revolution rom. After that my phone started normal.
SOrry for the bad enlgish.
Good luck mate.
hey, guys i just had the same problem, kinda. lol
anyways my phone is rooted, s-off and superCID
when i went to install the new ics rom i did everything this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
said to do and when the new root booted up for the first time, it would go up to the beats audio logo,( the ics rom with beats audio (xe)) then like restart back to the htc startup logo, then beats again then htc again, it just kept doing this..??
so i just deleated everything and restored back to origional backup rom.
so what did i do wrong?
a bad download link/file? can u give me a good one?
thanks, any help is greatly appreciated as iam totally lost right now...
edit:
also do i even need this file (PG58IMG.zip.) to flash the ics rom if my phone is superCID ??? iam confused on that part.
nevermind, figured it out and got it work! the new ics is pretty sweet!!
thanks for everything- towards all the developers and testers on here
Cool. The answer is yes of course. The firmware file contains a specific radio / hboot / etc version. The ROM you download and install is dependent on certain combinations of the firmware versions you have. The super cid just allows you to flash any of the firmwares available here... Otherwise you have to find the specific one for your region and/or carrier.
Also, don't forget you can use an adb logcat while your phone is booting to see if you can diagnose any boot-looping issues. Just run that command on your PC with your phone attached via USB cable

To do so,
1. Download the correct firmware version ( PG58IMG.zip V3.24 ) and copy it to the root of your SDCARD.
Be 200% sure that the downloaded zip file is not corrupted. ( Check the MD5 checksum after you download)
2. Pull Back the battery and wait for a minute.
3. Put the battery and press POWER+VOLUME Down Key together.
4. Your phone will detect the firmware.
5. Follow the screen and complete the flashing.
6. Download the ICS based ROM of your favor.
7. Boot into recovery and flash your rom.

No you didn't do everything the thread said to do because you're stuck in a bootloop. And yes, you must have correct firmware to run any ICS ROM.
1. SuperCID.
2. Load correct firmware for ROM version you wish to flash (there are 3 different firmwares, 3.06, 3.12 and 3.24. Make sure you've got the right one.
Put PG58IMG.zip on the root of your damn SD card.
Put the ROM you want on the root of your damn SD card.
Put a wipe or superwipe script on the root of your damn SD card.
So far it's easy, no?
Boot to bootloader, select FASTBOOT, select yes to update.
Watch the phone. You should see it flash some partitions, reboot itself, then flash the radio and some other crap.
When done you should be at correct HBOOT and radio.
Now, pull the battery. Pull the SD card.
Insert the battery. Start the phone with power + Volume down.
Move cursor to recovery.
Insert SD card and select recovery.
Flash the wipe script, flash the ROM.
Now if you did everything exactly like this, you will boot to normal phone in about 10 minutes or so.
This has been spelled out 50 times in 50 threads, including threads devoted to nothing but this procedure.
Your phone is a machine. It can only do what you tell it to do. If you screw up, it's screwed up. If you do everything exactly right, in the right order, carefully checking each step, your phone will behave.
Try again.
Do it right. Do it carefully.

[Q] Converting CWM backup to flash zip ??

Hi everyone! I aware that maybe this is a stupid question, but i have to ask...Is there a way to convert a CWM backup to a flash zip to use with the CWM install zip option??? I'm asking this because I have a particular problem and is that I can't do backups or restore with my CWM so i can't install almost any custom rom that is in the developers forum.
I don't know why i have this problem, even I posted a thread asking for help about this, but I guess I'm the only one experiencing this issue and the only rom I successfully installed is the Victory Rom and is a flashing zip.
By the way I installed the CWM with the Atrix Bootstrap and I applied the patch RAZR-CWMOnBoot-Global-J.Y.Daddy.zip to have the CWM on every boot and I don't experience any GPS issue (I guess i don't know exactly what is the issue) and for the record when I'm trying to do a CWM backup i get the "check sum error" when the CWM tried to finish the backup process, and when i'm attemping to restore a backup the CWM starts without problem but then I get the "Error while restoring /system".
I hope you can helpme with this problem.
Thank's in advanced.

after you apply the atrix bootstrap use rom manager and install the recovery for the droid bionic and you will be able to back up and restore roms. advance restore also works incase you do a wipe, install a rom, and then want your data restored.

You could convert it... but you would have to write an updater-script, and get an updater-binary (you can basically steal it from any flashable zip.)

Should I remove the patch for CWM on every boot? Or i just download the recovery with rom manager ?

Well I tried this with no success , I installed the recovery for the droid bionic and then I reboot into recovery with rom manager and make a cwm backup, the result was an error when generating the md5Sum and my battery went from 60% to 3%, that kinda surprise me it's the second time that happens, the first time was when i was updating from stock 2.3.5 to 2.3.6.
Worth the shot i guess but until i can fix this i guess i'm screwed :'( .

That is an interesting point because everything I've done, the rooted, the atrix bootstrap recovery and the CWM on boot patch has been with version stock rom 2.3.6 I never tried do it with the 2.3.5 so i guess i'll be downgrading tonigth to stock 2.3.5.

back to track
Sorry for bringing this up again but I need the answer to the
original question on converting a CWM backup to flashable zip...
my question:
My CWM Backup consistes of 7 files:
boot.img
recovery.img
system.yaffs2.img
data.yaffs2.img
cache.yaffs2.img
nandroid.md5
.android_secure.vfat.tar
my guess is that the first two go directly into the update.zip
then What about the other three yaffs2 files and the .android_secure.vfat.tar file
how are they extracted/combined into the zip file??
ps.about the updater-script and updater-binary, can I take them both from any flashable zip?

Its possible, I have done it, and the only foders you need are system and data...
It will be a pain, tho, your gonna wanna do it through Linux, updater script needs to have the right commands in it to do this, so its def not a drag and drop process, even tho some of it is..

all you need to do is use unyaffs on the system.img and optionally data.img and if will unarchive them, then back it into a zip with the boot.img and build the updater-script!

[Q] Problems with MD5 file trying to flash CD10 rom

I have an ATT HTC One X 2.20 Hboot 1.14 using twrp 2.4.1 and have been trying to install roms but continue to have an issue with the MD5 file. I have followed the instructions about flashing the boot.img of CM10 but it seems no matter what I do, it can't find the MD5 and says it is skipping MD5. I know just enough not to get out of a bootloop but I am quite new to this. The one odd thing I see is when I go to mount my phone in order to copy the CM10 zip file into the phone, the options I get are different than others I see online: Mount System (unchecked), Mount Data,(unchecked), Unmount Cache (checked), Unmount SD Card (checked). Any help would be awesome.
quick update; same problem
SWell, going through some of other posts and videos, I tried using goo manager to download the CM 10 zip file. But Im still stuck on boot loop. And it still says that the MD5 file was not found. I used the onexroot.com tutorial to root my phone and have superuser and twrp. Not sure what else to try. Ideas on other stable JB roms I could try? Thanks again.
In TWRP, when you install the ROM, do you have the option checked to force MD5 checked?

I'm pretty sure I do. I have always left it unchecked. Should I check it and try again?
I've always left it unchecked (no MD5 check). If its a bad download, all that will happen is the phone will get stuck on boot, anyway.
I'd go into TWRP, and see if its checked or not. And if so, uncheck and try to flash again.
Update: No Luck
I just tried wiping system, factory reset, and cache, flashing the cm10 boot.img and then installing the CM10 zip file and checking the force MD5 and then the entire process and unchecking the force MD5 and with both attempts I get right back to the same issue. All I can say is that I'm so thankful that I created a backup in twrp. I've restored my phone at least 20 times today, haha. Learning is definitely a process. Ill take any more ideas.
Download the ROM again, may just be a bad download.
Will try
I will try to download the rom again from the CM website. If I were to try another rom (viper xl), the process should be the same correct? Thanks for the help.

Put the ROM on your SD.
Boot into hboot, go into TWRP
In TWRP, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik
Install ROM
Reboot
ViperXL should flash boot.img in AROMA, although its not foolproof. If the phone doesn't boot (may take about 5 min first time), then flash boot.img using fastboot.
For most ROMs, you will need to flash boot.img manually. ViperXL is one of the few exceptions (also CleanROM 5.1, I think).
Still no luck
I just tried aokp JB 4.1 with no luck. I do everything I've been told or that I have read on these forums (copy zip to SD, flash boot image, install rom...) but i continue to get the same problem: MD5 not found, skipping MD5 and so on. If anyone has any ideas I'll be happy to give any other info needed. At this point I have a rooted phone but cannot install roms. Argh!
He's not the only one. I'm on viper 3.2.3 but when trying to flash any Rom based off of AOSP or anything similar I bootloop. Yes I flash the boot.img then the Rom to no avail . I started a thread in this department called weird problem if the OP would like to take a look there.

you dont check any md5 checking for custom roms in twrp
you only rom i know of that you will have a md5 without anything selected is evervolv 4.2 i found a fix where you copy the CERT.SF from evervolv 4.1 to evervolv 4.2 and it will install and boot.
also always remember to "fastboot flash boot boot.img" if you are on hboot 1.14 or newer. if you going changing from sense to aosp always do full wipes no matter what. never factory reset in bootloader.
Yes I've done this countless times as I was on jellybam before going to jokers sense 4+ Rom then viper . I know the processes but something is wrong.

I hate websites like that one. They just ripoff content from XDA, repackage it, and give little or no credit to the actual developer or XDA.
Stupid question, your bootloader is unlocked, right? In bootloader, it says UNLOCKED?
It must, for you to have TWRP. But it doesn't hurt to cover all the possibilities.

[Q] Xperia tipo soft bricked - help

Hi all this is my first post in XDA forum. I messed up my tipo and dont know what to do.
Here's what happened:
I was being continually bugged by my friends to root and then install a custom rom on my tipo. They kept taking about how wonderful it would be and all that. so i went ahead and successfully rooted my phone. Then i installed Clockwork mod 6 and took back up of my current rom on the external SD card. Then i backed up the clockwork mod folder containing my backup on to the pc.
Then i downloaded PACman Rom complete with gapps.zip and fixstorage.zip. and loaded them in sd card and then booted in to cwm and flashed the rom. I got the finished message and rebooted but got stuck at the sony icon and would go no further. i then decided to go back to the orignal backup i had taken. i again booted in to cwm and tried the back up it said md5 mismatched. i googled it and came up with procedure to fix error using SDK tool and managed to remove the old nanadriod.md5 and write a new nandroid.md5 in the backup which fixed the md5 mis match error.
I again started the recovery from backup and got past md5 mismatch error, it loaded boot.img successfully and got stuck at loading the system file.
