[Q] Converting Zip to MD5

How do I convert roms into an md5 file I can use to flash via odin? Everytime I download rom i get a zip folder with meta, system and updates folders as well as a few other files but no md5 file ????

You can't convert a zip file to an md5. One is a container and the other is a checksum. Try Mobile Odin or install from zip via CWM

md5 is hash to verify content.. if u don't have it .. create it ..

I cant install with CWN as I have the Samsung Galaxy S 4g, the only way to flash this phone is with odin. Does anybody know when someone will convert any roms to use with on this phone yet?? Feels like I have been waiting on a release for ever and dont know how to convert the zip to md5 myself.

.....and using odin mobile requires root ....the reason why i am trying to flash a custom rom to begin with is to get root in the first place?!

thanks for the answer.
another Question,
how i can get S5360_XXKK6_OXXKK2_XXKK5 or S5360XXKK6_REV05 as CWM ZIP ROM ?

It's easy! f you have Windows...
All you have to do is rename the file. Right Click > Rename, then change the file extension to zip. Delete md5 and type zip. Now you can open it by .zip
You can do the same with he .img files that's in the new zip. Want to change it back? Do the opposite.
Hope it helped, hit a :good: for me please! I'm kind of new. Thanks.

Like i said, change the extension to .zip and unzip the contents in your new zip file from your md5.

I backed up my stock rom from twrp recovery mode. Now i cant restore it.
Is there any way i can install the stock rom again

What
Of course you can guys its a bit of a hassle but you convert the .zip to a .tar download the tar converter tar-Tool_Odin3-v3.07_by_mkh.mourad I forgot where I got it from but search it its here then run the batch with that converted tar wholla .tar.md5 file just used it for a modem

ok so then if im using odin how am i sopposed to flash it because in order to flash a stock rom or any rom i need to to be in md5 or tar so if its zipped how should i do it

You can do so
You can convert to tar from zip via 7-zip there is vedio about it on YouTube

[recovery][clockworkmod] touch recovery 5.8.0.1 get it while its hot !!!!!!!!!

I like to start this off by saying i had nothing to do with this build the great dev team at clockworkmod did a great job at putting this together, im only the messager !!!
This a clockworkmod recovery that is by TOUCH!!
First go get flash image GUI from the market (plus its easier) or you can use whatever you like
https://market.android.com/details?...wxLDEsImNvbS5qb2V5a3JpbS5mbGFzaGltYWdlZ3VpIl0.
then download the 5.8.0.1
http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.1-supersonic.img
go to your flash image and click recovery image in the app then browse and find where ever you downloaded the 5.8.0.1 recovery and then click flash image and there you go just hit reboot to recovery and check out your new touch recovery
plus i was able to zip it to flash on hboot download link at the bottom
maybe qbking77 will do a review who knows
Plus dont forget to thank me if you like this
and to show love for clockworkmod for putting this together on their facebook
http://facebook.com/ClockworkMod
thanks to joeykrim for the flash image gui app

Is there a reason i should install "Flash IMG GUI" before flashing this?Or can i just manually do it through Hboot?
I noticed its an IMG,so it can be put into a flashable zip.
This must not have been released for "Rom Manager" yet?

you do it either way you want but flash image was the easiest for me plus i dont know of other ways to flash a image file since i have always used flash image gui but you can try at your own risk!

For those of us that are broke,lol.Most of us knew this,but just in case.
If you only have the .img file, you can make your own update.zip file. For example, if you have a recovery image file, it needs to be named recovery.img. Then, put it in a ZIP file without compression. Name the file PC36IMG.ZIP, and you're all set.
Thanks for the heads up Myerk2008.
If thats your app,i appologize,buy this guys app if its his,lol.Support the dev.

Keep recovery zip?

I used to have this flashable zip file for ICS that removed a file which made the recovery "sticky". But I seem to have lost it, does anyone know where I can find it?

[q] md5 help needed

Hello,
This is my first post here on xda and I have a problem that needs solved. I have a HTC Sensation XE with CWM 5.0.2.0 and i have the dreaded MD5 mismatch. I edited the folder name to Stock_Backup when I tried a new ROM, after flashing the rom I remembered that I forgot to install the gapps after I got stuck in a bootloop. I then tried to get back to stock and I got the words that have haunted me for the past 3 days MD5 mismatch. Of course I tried to rename the folder back to the time stamp, but that did not work. I tried editing the .MD5 file with Notepad++, that also did not work. I sorta need my phone as I use it for a number of different things, I also don't want to sent it to HTC for them to say I have to pay a fine out of my Nexus7 money jar. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

this should surely help you
EDIT: also this one only see solution "one"

thanks, I'll give it a try:highfive:

the script ran fine ?
also what all files are present in the backup folder ?
btw the phone should not bootloop just because you didnt have gaaps
EDIT: just had a look at the script ..it should be modified a bit (that is not made for sensation) ...just post all the file names I'll modify the script and will post it back
EDIT2: also if possible post the contents of the nandroid.md5 file inside the backup (for reference)

try this attached script instead of the other script and repeat the process as explained in the linked first thread

I know that. I moved the backup on the computer and when I put it on my sd so I could restore it. It didn't work it says no file found do you know where I can download the Original Stock Rom and when i try starting it up it go's to a black screen with a green arrow pointing towards the found then it goes to the phone with a red triangle with a red exclamation point. What is that?

If your backup is not recognised you have put it in the wrong folder i think. So tell us, where the files are on your sd card.

+1 on that, if you have one it'll be recognized as long as it is in the right folder, and made with the same recovery.

So i put the backup in the CWM folder but it tells me no file found so what do I do? Can I go to some website to download the original stock Rom and kernel I need to fix my phone asap so can you please tell me exactly what I need to do. Plus what are those symbols i describe in my last reply. Thanks so much for assisting me I appreciate it.

The files must be in folder: clockworkmod/backup/2013-04-01.18.46.58
The last folder is the date it was created.
The symbols mean, your flash has failed.

What if that doesn't work

If your backup don't work, i know there is a Stock cricket jb back here in One SV Forum. Others flashed this successfully.
Otherwise i'm running out of ideas.

Okay so what do I do. Do i just move the Nanadroid file and where on my Sd. I leave it in zip form right ?
Then using fastboot I go ahead and open up CWM? Will it work on any version of CWD? Thanks so much for getting that file for me and what do I do after its flashed? Like as from being to end what are the steps sorry for all the questions but thanks for everything.

Unzip it. Go into Clean JB Crkt 2.04.1050.3 folder and copy the clockworkmod to your external sd.
Then boot into cwm and choose restore and choose the backup.

Hey man I download that file but its not in zip its in Rar. so I just move the file on to my external sd out in the open not in a folder and I opened up my CWM from the install zip from sd card and that didn't work then I went to restore and it could find the file both times so how do I install it? Do I have to put it in a certain folder or something? It keeps saying no file found. Thanks

Don't copy the zip directly.
What you could do is make a backup, see where it is on your sd, replace it with the one from the zip and then restore that one.

So Noob17_Me, flash this rom from here.

Thanks for that. But I have a question is it exactly like the original one because I want it to be with the original stock so that i can re-lock my Bootloader and stuff? Is there some way to get that Rar. file to install on my phone? Sorry if im getting you angry or upset. Thanks for all your help

Yea but...

Yea but what im trying to say is that the file I downloaded isn't in zip form. So how am I supposed to install it on CWM?

Sorry but what is so difficult to understand? The rar is not for flashing, its a cwm backup and if you unrar it you have a folder Clean JB Crkt 2.04.1050.3, inside you find a folder clockworkmod.
This clockworkmod folder you have to copy to SD, like it is and and boot into recovery and choose "restore".
And my zip is made from this backup, so it are the same files!
