[Q] Help!What's wrong with my recovery?

I've downloaded an InsertCoin's ROM and I tried to mod it, but when I tried to flash it, my recovery told me that :
Error in Sdcard/xxx.zip
(status 0)
or
Error in Sdcard/xxx.zip
(status 6)
Can anybody tell me what is the status 0 and status 6 is?
Can anybody tell me how to fix it?
Thanks

Did you wait for the transfer to be complete? Even after its complete give it a minute to be fully done
I forgot what status 0 is though

What about the ROM are you trying to mod. Changes to /system can give those errors. Depending on the changes you may have to recook the rom.

Did you sign the rom after modding e. g. with tom cleaner 0.9?
Sent front my HTC Renovatio VXR

Since were using cwm we don't need to sign the rom though you need to sign the apk

Yes, I changed some pics in the frameworks-res.apk and the cpm.htc-resources.apk and delete some apps in the /system/app, but I do the same thing on other ROMs it worked

Status 6 is updater-script error
If you changed something there then that is why

Also when you have kitchen open up rom first time do you have it convert the script from edify to amend.

I tried again without modify the updater-script and recovery said :
Error in sdcard/xxx.zip
(status 0)
What is status 0?

Unzip your ROM and find META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary file
then replace that binary file with the roms original binary file before you made any changes.... lemme kno if that fixes it, make sure to sign the zip when ur done

nothing special ... deleted some apks in system/app (bloatware) and added some (gaaps) and edited build.prop with notepad++ just to change timezone
sorry .. your kitchen mod
im going now to build and untouched rom .. just to see if the problem is from my changes .. but i didnt changed anything special .. so i supose thats not the problem .. but just in case.. im going to test it ..
im going to extract the rom "miuiportugal_OneX_2.9.21_Signed.zip" and build it with kitchen defaults
convert updater like it recomends on extract..
and convert again to updater in building like it recommends
just to see if the problem is in the kitchen or my changes
---------- Post added at 07:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:24 PM ----------
same problem .. same error ...
didnt change anything this time ...
just extracted rom and build it again with kitchen defaults
dont understand .. kitchen recognizes the device when converting scripts ...
maybe because the source rom its MIUI ? i tryed miui eng / pt / ch / rd .. and same problem ..
maybe java path invalid (\Java\jre7\bin) dont know if kitchen uses java ..
maybe cygwin version ?
lol .. what a strange thing ... do i need to change more files in kitchen ? i just downloaded the last kitchen release and applyed your mod ...
btw i founded this on changelog
Version 0.190 (March 26, 2012):
Change end-of-line characters in update(r)-script to proper format when building ROM. This gets done in case a noob modified the file with non-Unix compliant editor. Prevents 'Status 6' error when flashing ROM in custom recovery.
but it doesnt make sense because im not doing edits and i dont have < 0.190 kitchen

i installed everything with a tutorial i saw here on forum .. maybe it wasnt the best tutorial to setting up the kitchen .. dont know :| damn

just in case someone can give me a clue...
here's some info and logs .. i think kitchen is converting wrong the updater-script... but why .. i dont know.. differente HOX versions ?

detailed problem in here if you can check logs and specs etc
i didnt mentioned your mod in there to not cause more confusion .. but using your mod or not, the problem is the same, so the problem is not from your mod

thanks again

Can u plz send me this: original updater-script, converted update-script and final updater-script.

Problem solved thanks to "backfromthestorm" hint!!
The problem is the Kitchen update to updater conversion.
The kitchen doesnt make correctly the conversion.
So the solution is:
not give any script to kitchen for conversion, remove META-INF folder from original zip and let kitchen create a fresh updater..

It doesn't fix the converting problem does it, also very interesting you prefer removing meta inf en make a new one then just changing 2 lines in updater script, 2 workarounds in my opinion, anyway can u send me those 3 files i asked for cause i wanna fix this problem.

you are right .. but i prefer to create a new one because its less work, i have to remove the ui_print and other symlinks, so for me its easyer create a new one.
but the perfect is if the kitchen can make correctly the conversion ...
here it is what you asked
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7fd3kboz0htiur7/updaters.zip
it will be great if you can fix that.. if you need something from me just ask!
thanks

made another test .. but this time with other rom...
the kitchen converts the updater bad again but with other errors ..
this time it add spaces to lines
here is the files from the another test ...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/vim2rpgrgmij3j9/updaters_2.zip
the kitchen is all messed up when converting updater .. i think the best is to stick to the original updater dont make conversion and make manual changes on the end ..
and hope DSIXDA gets back to kitchen development, or maybe someone makes another kitchen and give support to it :\
EDIT: found some bugs when removing META-INF folder from original zip and let kitchen create updater by his own .. for example in MIUI rom some functions stop working ... like theme applying etc... i think kitchen jumps something maybe permissions .. when creating updater
for now, and for me, the best option is to let META-INF in original zip, and when extrating rom when kitchen asks to convert updater to update, dont convert, and after edit original updater mannualy and make the changes

You probably have a problem with mount points & update binary. Make sure your device is supported by kitchen else manually create edify_defs for your device or Replace update binary in kitchen cooked meta inf folder with the one from original rom and edit kitchen updater script - change the lines with mount(...........) in new updater script to look exactly like the one in original rom's updater script. You can search xda forum for more info on edify language used in updater scripts. Most of changes you need make in updater sript will be within first 5lines. You can pm me if problem but also post response here

META-INF problem.. N7100 ROM making..

Hi everyone..
I'm new for android developing, so it is my first attempt in making a ROM..
So my problem I'm pretty sure it is in META-INF folder..
After I have configured aroma installer things, and everything is done in the ROM.. I tried to flash it but it gives an error (which means aroma installer did not start) , I saw the log but it seems like it didn't flash anything, it just gave that there is an error in the zip.. So it's a META-INF problem..I think..
So anyone have an idea of what I forgot to do?
Sorry If this the wrong section..

What error does it give? Can you post the recovery.log?
Also, make sure you do not replace the update-binary with one for your device because that one is a modded binary that starts up AROMA. You CAN, however, replace the update-binary-installer with the update-binary for your device (renaming to update-binary-installer of course), because thats the one that actually gets called by AROMA to parse your updater-script
And if you have signature checking enabled did you make sure to sign it?

you ve got to check your updater and aroma installer for typos.
Even a comma prevent aroma form starting.
You have to keep in mind that recovery first run all scripts inside aroma and then display them unless you make an option error whch will gives you the error right befor page display..
A common issue to most new builders is the comma on all options of aroma.Last option has to end without it..
As pervious said you have to provide the error number.
Hope that helps

thanks
that's great

it sounds like a binary problem aroma runs the updater script through aroma, but if aroma doesnt even start it would have something to do with aroma-config or corrupt aroma binary

can't seem to fix status 7 error

So, I've tried the fixes for status 7, installation aborted .I'm trying to install Beanstalk kitkat 4.4.
Attached are the before and after edits of the updater script
After I edit the updater script it just aborts install.
Any help would be appreciated,

Can you upload the actual updater script you modified to pastebin or something like that? It's hard to tell from the screenshot if there is a syntax error somewhere.

Wow, I've never really looked at the CM updater script before...complicated...having said that, on what platform, and what editor did you use to modify the script? If it's Windows, and notepad, it probably inserted Windows style EOL characters, which don't make Android happy. I'd re-edit it in Notepad++, and make sure the Edit - EOL Conversion is set to UNIX. If you've already done that, then I'm stumped.
Having said all that, I don't think the assert line is the problem. I have a i727R as well, and I've never had to modify the updater-script for CM, which Beanstalk is based on.
