Before people can help you, you need to give more information.
What is the model for your phone and is it rooted?
If so, what ROM is it running and what custom recovery do you have?

Ok you can't "apply sdcard:update.zip" because even though you rooted your phone, you don't have a custom recovery. You have the stock recovery image that comes with your phone. This means that every zip you try to "apply" or flash will automatically be checked for a signature (to make sure its a valid update from the manufacturer). Since the ROMs usually don't have signatures, it won't work
Never mind about finding out the ROM. since you have a stock recovery, it looks like you haven't put any custom ROM on it. you are running the stock android OS that came with the phone.
It seems your OS got messed up when you tried to root the phone. The One Click root method you used I believe wasn't fully compatible with your phone. You should have used "Universal Root." Anyway, Give me a day or two. I will see If I can find you an official zip belonging to your manufacturer. THAT you can push back onto your phone and get your OS back and in working order.
Cheers!
P.S: Check if there is an option in recovery mode called "Toggle Signature verification" I doubt it but if there is it would DEFINITELY help you.

I'd recommend changing to CWM recovery via rom manager if you need to toggle verification. Rom manager from the market will flash a recovery for you also.

Same Problem with HTC Hero, after one click (z4root) root
Hi @ all,
i have the same problem with my hero, and every solution that i can find is using fastboot, but with Eclair i cant´s use it.
So please help.
Here is some dato of my hero:
HERO CVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.76.0007 (HERO10000)
MICROP-010f
Radio-6.35.15.11

1. If your USB debugging is enable then you can fix your problem.
2. official update.zip can fix your problem.
You can't do anything(but your mobile company can help you)
1. Your mobile company not release any update for your device
2. If USB Debugging is disable
I send my Micromax Mobile on 08 Feb, 2011 and Still no info on my device, Micromax = Poor Quality Support, Wastage of money.
@Micromax - Please close your company.... and move your company to your own country....

I tryed to fix it with every update.zip I found in web by
downloading the zip
rename to update.zip
format sd card
copy update.zip to sd card
start in recovery mode
try to start update
... and get a varification failed error
Has somebody a working update.zip, or can say where can I get it and if my steps are right?

1. If your update.zip is not official(signed) then you can't update your device.
Download this and rename this file to update.zip and retry.
Its a signed update.zip
http://www.filecrop.com/40683206/index.html (Link is valid for 30 minute)
If not work then just find your radio update in this list..
http://www.filecrop.com/update-Hero.html

Thank you very much, I will try it tonight.
Damn, now I get a
"failed to verify whole-file signature" error???
What´s wrong now?

Maybe I need a Certificate to put on my sdcard for the whole file?

have you mounted /system? and instead of "reinstall packages" you want to select "install zip from sdcard". at least, that's how i did it flashing bionix. it may vary if you're attempting to flash something else, that's the only ROM i've flashed via CWM.

i dont have that option and i tried to use the install rom from the rom manager and i tried doing it by using the final cwm that krylon posted and it still results in the same thing. but i dont have the choice of mount/system or install zip from sdcard on the recovery screen

it definitely doesn't work via ROM manager. more info in this post/thread: http://bit.ly/l3grhw

rom manager is your problem for sure 100%

thank you i thought i had pushed the recovery file to the system/bin but i hadn't but once i did that it started and flashed it no problem

How did you push the recovery file into the /system/bin cause everytime i try it keeps giving me an error message that says cant paste because its a read only file

While in file manager hit the menu button to switch to r/w which means read/write. That will allow you to cut/paste where you need.

Help! Stuck in Boot Loop!

I tried to flash DlevROM INFUSE EDITION from ClockWorkMod and I get stuck in a boot loop.
I've downloaded a return to stock rom, transferred the zip to external sd but I can't seem to locate it on the "install zip from sdcard" screen.
What am I doing wrong? My phone is totally out of commission until I flash a new rom.
I've literally clicked on every folder in "install zip from sdcard" trying to figure out where the rom is.
When I click on "external_sd" it doesn't find any files. Am I looking in the wrong place?
Please help!!! My phone is totally out of commission! Thanks.

You have to wipe all of your data after flashing a new ROM. This is the most common cause of boot loops.
Also make sure you are useing the correct clock work mod version (infuse version). Useing a version made for another phone causes partition and file location mix ups.There is a 100% working one for the infuse somewhere on this fourm. I just can't find the link because I'm on mobile.

Thanks for the quick reply - however, since I'm in a boot loop, is it even possible to change the clockwork mod version?
Also, now when I go to "choose zip from sdcard" it says "no app2sd partition found." I can't click on it at all now.

Sorry - just woke up.
Quick question - where is the file marked "recovery"? I only see in that download Odin and the three files that use with with Odin. Did you want me to follow his instructions first with Odin and then yours? Thanks.

Are you on the correct CWM version? It seems like the partition tables inside of CWM are messed up.
Also consider the ultimate unbrick software it's a one click thing that will send you back to stock.

Yes it is you just need to go into fastboot mode (volume up + power) and flash recovery from your computer again.

Friend, First of all - These kinda questions should be in General Sections.
Do not try from Rom Manager. Get into recovery mod. Then select backup.
Shortcut - (Volume up + Home + Power button)

Hi..
My apologies for being at the wrong place..
Even backup is missing in recovery mode 3e.
Neither i get an option "install zip from sd card"
I rooted using oneclickroot.

Use amits universal root, not oneclickroot, it should install CWM recovery and the missing fields will hopefully appear

So I tried manually flashing it, but I get this error:

E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/.......... zip'
I unchecked zip signature verification, but I'm still having the second error. Also downloaded the update from external mirrors, but still have the same problem.
