Try to redownload your ROM and try again, sounds like you have a bad download.
You can only disable md5check for backups not for flashable zips.

Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found

I just check the MD5 using root explorer (there are many free md5 checkers), then flash. I believe TWRP also has an MD5 checker...just compare with the one at get.cm.
It is much more likely that you are not properly fastboot flashing the boot.img. Please read the OP of the CM threads to learn how to properly install the ROM.
To flash the boot.img via fastboot was successfull.
Where I`ve to put the .MD5 file on the internal storage? Before i have create a .md5 file with the MD5 Checker.
I can`t find any tutorial or threads for my HTC One S.

Put it with the ROM zip. You can also just look at the file and compare it to the one listed on get.cm.

good night mate
can be various things...
1-- have you checked the md5 checksum of the file???
2-- try to download again, to change the file name and then copy paste DIRECTLY to sd card root and try again..
in adition.. ensure you that you are using the recommened CWM..
WHAT´S the rom that you want to flash???and what´s your CWM version?

I am using CWM version 3.0.2.6
I have re downloaded already, renamed twice and the file is in the root folder.
I am trying to flash "PD98IMG_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.36.405.8_R_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_187331_signed"
I have no idea what md5 and checksum is?
Im new to all this
Is that an official ROM?
MD5 is a hash value placed in a packet to insure integrity, pretty much the original packet and packet received do a check to make sure the hash is the same otherwise the file was corrupted or manipulated along the way.

hi there.
i just downloaded the german motorla atrix rom you postet here
for safety reasons i checked the md5 hashs.
the md5 of the compressed sbf.gz is ok
but unfortunately the md5 of the sbf file itself get differs from yours.
i get 87F1762240C2636331B907BCB19BF55D for the sbf file.
i tryed different extracting programs and different checksumgenerators, just to make shure.
i cant ask the poster cause i dont have my 10 usefull posts, so maybe this is the way to go..
does anyone have the opportunity to recheck an uncorrupted sbf file?
thanks
okay i redownloaded and got the same differing md5 hash as before.
so its nothing about the download.
flashed it via rsd lite..
works properly..
so the file seems to be okay and safe to flash
eventhough the hash is 87F1762240C2636331B907BCB19BF55D
..could anyone write a pm to daywalker04 since i cant and tell him?
thanks
Hello,
I'm trying to modify a couple of roms to remove some APKs and add anothers, (Supercharged and Lithium) but I keep getting md5 mismatch, even though I modified the MD5 files with the new MD5 values (using md5sums for windows)
Can you tell me what am I doing wrong / how to force CWM Recovery to ignore the MD5 files?
Thanks
The easiest thing to do is to bypass md5sum checks by leaving the md5 file empty.

It didn't work with an empty file, neither did it without an md5 file

I've had problems with if having bad checks even with an empty md5 file. formatting my sdcard fixed it. Just backup your stuff first. hopefully yo don't have 28 GB of music like me
Hi !
Need assistance here please.
Have downloaded the MD5 tar file of the official JB update but Odin does not read in the PDA !
Any suggestions ?
Thanks !
Sammy
What gives the output in the Textbox in Odin?
Maybe a bad download Odin check the md5 to make sure the file is not corrupt. If it´s corrupt it won´t let you flash
Don´t rename the *.tar.md5 - if you rename it can not check the md5 and won´t let you flash!
Hi, I have a new Google Pixel on which I'd like to install the PureNexus ROM. I've gotten to the stage in which I have installed TWRP and have rooted the phone. After then booting into recovery, I am trying to install Purenexus by installing a zip that I've placed on the phone's internal storage (/sdcard). However, I then get a message that I've not seen before:
"Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file."
I tried this a couple of times. Rebooted back into recovery, but always get the same message. If I unzip the purenexus file, it is true that that file does not exist..., but I think I have the correct file, which I downloaded from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=142297
Check the MD5 hash of the zip you downloaded, compare it to the MD5 listed on Android File Host for the file. If it doesn't match, redownload the file and compare again until the MD5 matches.
