Thanks.
I'll have to give it a go later. I just added the modified 3e stock recovery from the other topic and all looks good.
Works
This method works to get cwm installed and working

This has also been discussed, but I'm posting the information from Captivate.
You need modified 3e stock recovery first See Here (3e requires root)
* Download this .zip file
* put it on your internal SD card (/sdcard) via
- ADB or
- mount it to your computer and copy/paste it there.
* rename the .zip to "update.zip".
* reboot into 3e recovery and choose "Reinstall Packages". You may have to do this twice on the first time.
Voila, you are in CWM.

Aaaaaaaaaand its done. Check my other post .
Can someone who has successfully flashed something with CWM please give my ROM a try. Others in my thread can't even start to flash the ROM because their SD card won't mount or stay mounted properly. If you don't want to flash the ROM it would still be helpful if you came over and told us the steps you took to flash so we can figure out the difference. Thanks.

i used the one click root method, will i b able to flash the custom rom on this site?
Hey all,
I have my AT&T One X(L), and I'm unable to flash any custom ROMs with TWRP.
The phone is rooted, and unlocked, and on hboot 1.14.0002 if that helps.
I'm [trying] to run TWRP version 2.3.3.1 for Evita phones.
Here's the process I'm using:
I've placed the ROM zip file in the downloads section on my SD card.
Extract and flash the boot.img from the ROM zip file using command prompt.
Wipe cache/delvik/factory reset from TWRP
Press "install", and find the zip file (in this case it's ViperXL)
It never gets past this point. No error messages, all it says is that it failed to flash the zip file. I made sure that the check MD5 box is UNchecked.
ANY help is greatly appreciated!
Make sure signature verify is unchecked too.
Make sure the md5 of the zip file is okay
Go to mounts, see if sdcard is mounted. Uncheck it, go flash. It will work

Thanks, how do I check the MD5 file to make sure it's ok?

Download MD5 checker from Play store if you care to ensure. Before you swipe to flash the Rom, make sure you DON'T check MD5 check.

So the SD card should not be mounted when I try to flash?

Oh, yeah. It always has. Still a no-go.
Went back to the basics, and downloaded Rootchecker. It says my phone does not appear to be rooted, but I'm not sure how that's possible? I used the X-Factor exploit for 2.20 firmware, and on the bootloader screen it does say unlocked at the top. Could it actually not be rooted, or is it possible the app is wrong?

I couldn't flash with TWRP one day and couldn't find a solution so I just had to return to a RUU, re-unlock the bootloader, re-root and re-flash TWRP and problems were solved.
Give this a shot, sometimes the phone just plays up

Hey Im trying to flash Android Revolution for htc one m7 to get 4.4 kit kat and sense 6. The installation keeps failing. I've done the md5 checker and the file is green. Says 'Updating partition details...' then fails. I've wiped cache, dalvik, and factory reset it. Still no luck.

I know that this thread is a bit stale; but I just got to it. I've had to reinstall my CM OS due to my own foolish error and am now going through that process. I've got what I thought was a correct full installation of CM2I3. However, somewhere along that line; I did not get a keyguard_wallpaper file installed. So now I have no way to set a lock screen. SO, Should I understand from these comments that:
- If i have a correctly check summed zip file. <cm-12.0-YNG1TAS2I3-bacon-signed-fastboot.zip> in my "Download" folder and TWRP installed with SU installed,
- Then, I can go to Recovery mode in TWRP and run Install on that file,
- I will get a clean install right over my existing CM2I3 OS installation that will include the proper keyguard_wallpaper file installed?
Is that correct?

your in the wrong forum.
ive never had a problem of just one file having an issue unless that build has a problem or the zip was corrupt. other then that you should consult your own device forum. your steps should be correct though if it's not a build or checksum issue.
With all the questions about recoveries with the influx of awesome 4.3 romness, I decided to make up some flashable zips.
These are the latest directly from clockworkmod found HERE<< They will flash all roms properly. One touch, and one non-touch.
I will keep them updated if CWM updates, just let me know if I'm slacking.
Instructions:
Flash with your custom recovery, and profit.
Enjoy... :beer:
Thanks. Should help the beginners

I see that Philz is based off 6.0.3.7 (if I remember reading that right in my recovery) and these are obviously 6.0.3.8. Is upgrading to these a recommended move?

6.0.3.7 and 6.0.3.8 will both work fine. These are just the latest cwm recoveries for our device. Philz is tweaked a lot.
Thanks! Was looking for this update.
Just wondering: what is the usual procedure to flash the recovery offered on CWM's website? The recovery is in a .img file. I can't seem to flash it with ODIN since it needs a .tar? I've searched and couldn't find info on flashing the CWM's image file, and the ROM manager doesn't seem to work.
Also there doesn't seem to be a partition SD card option. Which CWM version still offers this option?
Thanks a lot.

You can input the IMG into a flashable zip, like here. You can push it with terminal emulator. Use rom manager. Convert the img to a tar and odin.
Not sure when partitioning was removed, I use a windows program.
Thanks for the recovery!
Anybody figure out how to fix this? I can find people having this problem flashing 4.4 but I can't flash anything. I've tried to flash mf1 firmware, a 4.3 carbon nightly, and a 4.3 pac nightly. All with the same results. Here is exactly what I did -
I flashed PhilZ recovery earlier on a earlier version of TWRP.
kept getting a "failed" in PhilZ
Flashed latest TWRP via Odin
Tried flashing the above mentioned zips all with the error message.
Restored my hyper drive rls16 backup (4.1.2)
Installed latest TWRP via goomanager app
Edit : my phone is flashed to PagePlus so I kinda have to be careful I'm afraid of using Odin to go back to stock/rooted but my luck that's what it'll take. When I get home I'm going to try it with a older version of TWRP that's the only other thing I can think to try.
Any suggestions or info is appreciated.

anyone ? please ?
Supposedly the update binary here is generic, you could try replacing the one in the rom zip with it

I've tried CWM PhilZ and TWRP all latest versions, and still can't get rid of this.
I Cannot install any rom, whatsoever. I did manage to install a MF1 radio zip, but that's it. I can't install 4.3 or even 4.2 ..
I've replaced the update-binary inside the zips, and edited the update-script and removed the stuff used for recognizing the device, still no dice ..
I ended up flashing a full mf1 img via Odin and then used casual to root/unlock/recovery install - and I STILL get the error. Not sure where to go from here. Seems like nobody else is having this problem unless they're not on the latest recovery and trying to flash KitKat.
Thought I'd share the rest of my story ..
edit: I was able to restore a old backup of 1.7 carbon ...lol. better than nothing or a TW rom, that's for sure.
When you replaced the update binary did you get the same error or a different one? Also, have you tried flashing from internal and external SD?

Sorry I didn't get a notification for this.
I did get the same error. I did get a error 6 once or twice but it was because I edited the update-script file and used word or word pad I downloaded note++ and it stopped and went back to error 7 :banghead:

OK, I have one for you to try, use the original rom zip (don't edit the update-script), when you flash in recovery and it failed, select boot and boot back into recovery, then reflash again. Try it with the latest TWRP 2.6.3.2.
SOLVED ! only took a week ...
I had been using an update-binary file that was posted in a thread.
I took the file from PhilZ recovery ( which I had been able to flash, just nothing else ) and used that one. Imagine that, it worked.

Me too buddy, let me tell ya ..
I appreciate the advice along the way. Thank you.
now I just have to decide if I want carbon or pac as my daily driver for awhile.. Carbon is what i've almost always used after I figured out how bloated and laggy TW is.. Best of all my PagePlus flash is perfectly fine, didn't have to add APN's or mess with anything else to get data to work.
I hope this thread helps somebody else.
I am having the same issue with HTC One.
Could you please let me know how you solved this. Maybe it can help with my device as well. had no luck in our threds..

If you're getting a status 7 error you have to replace the update binary with the latest nightly from cm11 in anything you want to flash. The update binary is universal and will work on anything you want to flash. If it is throwing another error then this won't work.
This will probably only work with cwm or philz.

Could you please let me know how can I replace the update binary with the latest nightly from cm11? Do you need to open zip from latest Nities and put it into my ZIP?
2) I have tried both cwm or philz and I am getting this error

It's a recovery version problem, so either update your recovery or use an older one until you find something that works.

After conducting my own research with this same problem I discovered a much simpler method of correcting the issue. When flashing KK roms with older versions of custom recoveries, the recoveries did not have sufficient instructions to to handle some of the file system changes in KK. I tried replacing the updater binaries from multiple ROMs to no avail. After about 24 hours of trial and error I managed to successfully flash Cyanogenmod cm-11-20140709-NIGHTLY-d801 and GAPPs aokp_gapps-kk-20140517 to my LG G2 D801. All that had to be done is to update TWRP from 2.6.3.2 to version 2.7.1. This version of TWRP had the necessary instructions to support a KK version custom ROM.

I had same issue, installed newest TWRP. Fixed! Used Odin to install.
I had the same issue as the OP. I was trying to flash a rom from the external SD card. I moved it to the Internal SD and it worked.

I managed to pull the 5.0 Lollipop OTA update file and load it to Android File Host.
Word of warning, should you try to use this file to update, you will likely lose root, possibly without the chance to root once complete or even ODIN back to 4.x. This is primarily for devs to use to try to make pre-rooted and custom ROMs with.
The link to the file is below:

Because you flashed the archived cfg file. To flash the update you have to unpack the zip file and change the extension of the CFG file to ZIP. But anyway even this cfg fails to install, so don't try because i already did.
Update via adb or external sd card using stock recovery doesn't work !
Is there a way to flash it ???

You could try pushing the cfg file to /cache/fota, uninstall Safestrap, full unroot, reboot and then installing the update the standard way, but getting root afterward is iffy.

Thanks man, my situation is a little more complicated however since I have the i337m(Canadian S4) wasn't sure I'd be able to install this OTA in any way. Kind of came to the conclusion that I will have to wait for a custom Rom, unless my understanding of how this all works is wrong.
I will try but i already did full unroot . When flashing via recovery it says something like frameworkres-apk has unexpected content ... Standard way ? but it will tell me software update interrupted

It won't flash even without root. Tried flashing via stock recovery, no dice just like the others. Flashing results in wiping /data.
Short road...
Easiest way possible odin back to NB1 then take the OTA to lollipop that's the easiest way man

OTA from ODIN stock has never worked for me. Maybe it's because it's SIM-less?
What do you mean by Simless?
