Every time you flash a ROM in twrp it always says md5 not found. Install twrp from goo app

4.4.1 Update failing because of android.policy.odex

Hey, I tried flashing the new Android version 4.4.1 and this is what happens:
Code:
Updating partition details...
Starting ADB sideload feature...
Installing '/data/media/0/sideload.zip' ...
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
Verifying current system...
"/system/framework/android.policy.odex" has une
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/data/
And at the top of the screen there's a red colored "Failed" notification.
I'm guessing it's because the phone is rooted? Or what should I be doing to fix the problem? thanks.

Rooting is not the problem. If you made changes to the system the ota won't work. Fastboot flash the system and boot image from 4.4

So I need to go into TWRP and "Install" then choose the zip and flash it?

No, that will fail too.
You have made changes to the system. Whether its the dalvik mod, camera mod, center clock mod, etc or change build.prop.
You need to use fastboot to flash the stock system.img from here

Yep, it was the camera mod. Thankyou. I'll try that out.

I let it finish and it started the phone in normal mode, I went through the prompts about google's initial setup and let the phone sit a couple minutes. I turned it off and used volume down + power and selected recovery mode and now there's an android icon with a red warning sign and a black "!" on the sign and I can't do anything at all.
What now?
Edit: the phone randomly booted normally now..
I did try volume up and power but it doesn't do anything..
This step:
"After everything finished, select "Recovery" using the volume buttons."
Is incorrect, since the phone boots up as soon as the flash is finished.
Edit 2: I found it wasn't doing anything because I was "holding" instead of "pressing". Instead of following directions I assumed it was a typo and should be done the way all the other volume/power button combos are done. Big nub mistake, sorry.

[HELP] galaxy ace plus soft-unbrick

i've tried this guide and some others on the net, downloading files over files, tried with odin3 v1.85 and v3.09.
putting every time the phone in download mode and flashing the .tar.md5 file when doing it without the pit file it says "use the default pit", attaching the pit it gives a "secure check fail: id 0x95" and one time it displays "partition table doesen't exist".
It would be nice if anyone could help me as soon as possible!!:good:

I think ur partition memory currepted .....
Hit thanks if i helped

i thought it too couse it can't be that it says "partition table doesen't exist", if you know how to fix it, it would be great

ok
did you downloaded the correct firmware from sammobile.com ???
What were you doing when you bricked your phone??​

yes, i did, but it also didn't work i tried different versions but niether that worked.
I bricked my phone flashing through cwm the same rom (cm10.2 by vickig coolest) in order to reinstall the gapps which weren't working before.
Now i tried flashing cm10.2 by dirty developer and it says "e: can't open /sdcard/cm-10.2-20131216-DirtyDev-trebon.zip" if someone could give me a working backup (cwm 6.0.3.3) i could try to restore it.

Dude
While flashing stock firmware open odin and click on nandroid erase all
And then flash firmware
After reboot do a hard reset
Hope it works

Stuck on Sony's logo after trying to root and install LineageOS

Hey,
I have used Sony Developer's documentations in order to unlock my bootloader, then upgraded it with Emma.
Also, I have installed TWRP using fastboot and also tried to install LineageOS.
But, every time I try to turn on the device, it is stuck on Sony's logo and gets warmer with time.
TWRP, fastboot mode and flash mode are accessible.
What can I do?
Thanks!

How did you tried to install LineageOS? If you want to go back to stock rom use Emma to flash stock.291
Remember that after flashing TWRP you need to enter recovery by pressing power+volume up and then wipe system/data/cache partitions before flashing LineageOS zip

I have just flashed the stock rom with Emma.
What do you now? What to install in what order?
what I did previously was to use fastboot to flash TWRP and then flash lineageOS through the device itself (using TWRP). But it says the file is corrupted, although i tried 2 different zip files (both for the z3 of course) but both are corrupted.
thanks!

Nice! Now you can follow Instructions from the How to install section in https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/orig-development/7-1-cyanogenmod-t3508140 you can skip point 1 and start from 2.
Be sure that your bootloader is still in unlocked status before, otherwise you can unlock it again with flashtool. Otherwise rom won't boot. That's all, good luck

Should I use fastboot in order to flash TWRP?
and, why do I need flashtool? do you have a tutorial?
thank you so much!

It is probably the zip file itself which is (like TWRP states) corrupted.
Try to redownload the zip from the LOS thread and flash it, guess something went wrong with your first download and/or transfer of the zip to your SD.
