I have a Zeki TBD753B I'm trying to root, and I can't seem to get anywhere. I'm pretty sure it's based on the AML8726-MX using an EXT4 file system and I've read the thread on using the Crystal Root update to root these tablets but every time I try and flash the utoo-root-signed.zip from the recovery I get:
-- Install /sdcard ...
Finding Update Package...
Opening Update Package...
Verifying Update Package...
Installation aborted.
I've also tried the regular UBIFS Crystal_Root.zip with the same results. I even tried the motochopper and cydia impactor software I've seen mentioned in these forums but nothing seems to work.
I'm not very experienced with this, any advice on what I could be doing wrong or what else I can try?

I'm new to this too, so maybe, reflash your recovery?
On this website: http://www.examiner.com/x-8134-SF-G...d-Android-21-update-can-be-manually-installed.
I followed to instructions to update the Droid 2.1 the firmware is 2.0.1 and the build number is esd 56 which i think is required for the update to work. but when ever it try to update the phone in the boot menu i get a message saying.
E: Cant open /cache recovery/command
--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
Installation aborted.
Why wont it apply the update?
And if this is a wrong thread please notify me.
Thanks
Fixed
Never mind I figured out that i was using windows 7 and when i rename a file that it takes away the .zip part by itself so i renamed it as update.zip.zip. So on windows 7 when you rename it just rename it as "update."
^^
you can also tell that its still a zip by the handy dandy icon to the left of the file name.
Sorry mods, if I posted in the wrong place. As you can see, I tried rooting with the oneclick root. And it tells me I have successfully rooted, but when I try to use an app which requires rooting, it tells me that I have yet to root my phone. I have also tried the other method of rooting(Where you have to update via bootscreen) and it just seems to stop halfway for some reason. I am using the motorola milestone. Does it have to do with my phone carrier? Anyone in singapore experiencing this?
I seriously need your help XDA.
Also, I get this while trying to install update.zip in boot:
E:can't open /cache/recovery/command
--install from sdcard...
finding update package...
opening update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Now I get this:
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory)
E:signed verification failed
Installation aborted.
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE
Someone help me please!
Hi,
Last Friday I turned my phone off and when I turned it back on it got stuck on the loading screen and has been like that since.
I tried removing the battery loads, with no joy. I tried factory reset and clearing cache through the recovery menu, still nothing. So now I want to flash it but I'm having trouble.
I can't get the phone to boot so can't use adb to push a file to the sdcard and I'm stuck with fastboot commands (which I'm not that familiar with other than what I've found on here!). I downloaded the OTA update (from links found in these forums) for my phone to take it to 4.0.3 as I thought it was worth doing. I renamed it to update.zip but when I try the command "fastboot update update.zip" I get the message:
archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'
archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'
error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt
I then tried the full ROM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
but got the same message.
I don't know what these missing files are, or if I can create them myself! I've found other threads where people said they used replacements found elsewhere but I don't know where to find them!!
I can't find a way to get the update file onto the sdcard so can't use that recovery option.
I'd rather not have to send it back to samsung as that takes two weeks and I'm pretty sure they'd just flash it anyway!
I have the Nexus S still with stock ROM (2.3.6) and unrooted.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!! Ideally I'd like a way to transfer the update file to the sdcard and recover using the phone recovery. Failing that, I'd like to flash it using fastboot.
cheers
First you need to download this : http://www.4shared.com/zip/2L09-JyW/Root_Nexus_S.html
Just unpack , connect your phone and click run.bat....
After that you need : remove install-recovery.sh just in .....
run in windows-> Start->at the search bar write cmd and navigate into your android sdk is installed
For me :
C:/"Programs and Files (x86)"/Android/android-sdk/tools/>adb shell
# rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
#exit
or with Root Explorer into system/etc/install-recovery.sh just renam it (ex. : .sh.old)
thanks for the reply.
What will this do exactly?
I thought adb commands only worked when the phone was booted up?
just had a look at the bat. So it seems this will wipe and root the phone adding superuser privelages?
Is this the only way I can get it working again and once I've done this, how do I undo it as to get the stock version of ICS do I not need to be unrooted or will flashing the stock version from the link in my OP automatically unroot the phone and replace the recovery image etc?
thanks again for your help - I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to rooting and ROMs!
Forgot to say, I have GT-i9020 model if it makes any difference.

My tools will root your device and installed CWM ...after that you can do anything you want....
I'm now rooted and have cwm recovery. Had some issues transferring files to the sdcard but seem to have moved a couple of files, but when I try to update using them I get...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
E:Can't open /sdcard/name-of-file.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I get this whether its the full stock ROMs found on here or the update only packages found on here.
Any ideas?

Reboot into recovery.
Go into "mounts and storage"
Select "mount sdcard"
Select "mount USB storage"
Shortly after your SD Card will be mounted on your computer.
please help my sh-12c stuck in boot
hi my sh-12c stuck in boot wont open could you hrelp me to guide ?
i enable su and and i change permission in settings thats all in hope if morelocal2 works but it doesnt work and was not problem to use but , i restart in hope if it work , but it stuck in the boot logo Auuos moving any way to restore ?
Howdy -- I was given a SGH-I747 formerly on AT&T. This was a hand-me-down from a coworker that doesn't know what the prior owner actually did to the thing.
It appears that the phone boot-loops for a bit until it lands in into ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.4.7. The CyanogenMod logo appears at initial boot.
This recovery tool seems to have no external microSD card access. I already have ADB on my Win7 machine and was able to install a driver for the S3 to allow me to sideload via command prompt.
I attempted to do this with a copy of the stock ROM without root access.
Initially I was forced to update a line on the script to bypass the invalid number of arguments roadblock, but later encountered this:
Code:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
set_perm: some changes failed
E:Error in /tmp/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I presume something has changed on the primary partition that it wasn't expecting, but I haven't the slightest idea where to go from here.
Thanks for the brainpower
