[Q] error executing updater binary in zip / lollipop cm12 nightly - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
i searched many threads here on xda to find a solution, but nothing works. I tried different recovery versions of twrp, cwm(philz) and the official cyanogenmod version.
I tried to flash it with sideload.
I think the problem is only with Lollipop ROM, cm-bacon-XNPH38R.zip he was able to flash.
I added a screenshot where the error happens.
I hope you guys can help me, please tell me if you need any more information?
And sorry for my bad english. ^^
Thanks in advance!

It looks like you're not wiping fully (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) before flashing.

Are you using multirom? That error is common if the updater-script file isn't multirom compatible

I did a full wipe and i don´t use multirom, i found the threads with those problems.

You definitely wiped system and data? Did you check the md5 of the ROM zip after downloading it?

I only wiped dalvik, system and cache. You really think wipe data makes a difference?
The MD5 is correct.
This is so annoying... :/

Why did you say you'd done a full wipe when you hadn't? It's incorrect information like that that makes troubleshooting difficult. [emoji52]
Yes, wiping data makes a huge difference. Of course it does, you're leaving incompatible data behind, even if the flash succeeded you'd have bugs galore. You're supposed to do a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) when you flash a new ROM.

Flashing is failing complete and i thought wiping data makes no difference in the flash progress. When the flash progress finishes i wanted to do a full wipe of data. If i wipe data, does it delete the content on the simulated sdcard(internal storage) too or only the app data?

No it doesn't touch your personal data, only app data and settings. Still doesn't answer why you said you'd wiped data when you hadn't.

I'm gonna go with @timmaaa on this one too with the new info you added. The hint to me is right in the screenshot. It can't flash over incompatible data.
You're not trying to flash f2fs ROM on ext4 are you? Or vice versa? What ROM are you trying to flash?

THANK YOU ALL GUYS!!! I now have Lollipop on my OnePlus. :good:

I got it, thanks for your help and sorry for my wrong information. :/

I'm in a similar boat, I've tried a full complete wipe via Advance Wipe > Dalvik Cache, System, Data, Cache but same deal when attempting to install the zip file.
Using TWRP v2.8.1.0 any help is greatly appreciated

Hi guys. I was having this problem. I was at TWRP v2.8.0. My device was rooted and I used the goomanager app to update my twrp and after install the latest version(2.8.5) I solve my problem and now I have the CM12S installed.

Either flash the latest TWRP zip file I believe its upto 2.8.6.0, or simply download the TWRP manager app from the play store and install it that way. Once installed just boot into Recovery and flash CM12s

Use clockwork work mod unofficial v6.0.4.8. Working.or else use liquid smooth nightly
Use clockwork work mod unofficial v6.0.4.8. Working.or else use liquid smooth nightly with twrp.choice is yours but cwm recovery can flash all ROM which twrp is unable to execute.

Go to the Settings > Info (the last voice) and paste here the content.
However, I think the best way is restore the original rom (or the previous one).

Are you clearing cache and performing factory/data wipe reset as it sounds like your trying to install it on an older version of Android
Thanks for your response, TechMinerUK!
No, I haven't performed factory/data wipe reset and yes, I was in fact trying to install it on an older version of Android (2.3.x.x). If you are sure that I'm required to perform a factory/data wipe reset prior to installing [ROM][4.4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 [NIGHTLY/OTA], I will give it a try tonight.

...one more thing
Hi,
one more thing: I realised that still not everything works perfect. Somehow I cant install any apps from the playstore. Whenever I try to download an app (I have "gapps light" gapps-kk-4.4.0-signed.zip installed) it aborts at 6%, no matter what size the download is. Any idea?

Re-Flash the ROM then as it appears to be an issue within the ROM (Format Cache as well)
You can also try flashing minimalist gapps.... You system memory might be too low to correctly iinstal the full gapps. Just google minimalist gapps for you android version

Not wiping

I have tried to install CyanogenMod 13 alpha on my Moto G (XT-1032)
Now I'm on infinite loop, but on TWRP trying to wipe everything but the Internal Storage, it's taking too long and doing nothing, is there another way to wipe data and cache? ( I was with old TWRP)

Change the version of your twrp or it could be that when you download the zip some file doesn't download correct.

How to flash CM update?

Hi, there is an update available for CM13 and I don't know how to install it. I've heard I need to flash it using a custom recovery (I use TWRP) but do I also need to clear the dalvik and cache? Will this uninstall my apps?
The first thing that you need to do is download latest build and Gapps then for optimal performance wipe everything (caches, system, data).
After that put these files in your sdcard then boot into TWRP and then install it zip as usual.

U have to download latest ROM via CM updater and click "apply update" or something like that (my phone is on german so I don't know how it's named on other languages). Then your phone automatically restarts into recovery, performs all the steps automatically and also reboots automatically.
I always do dirty updates and never faced any issues!

I would prefer a clean install (download ROM and GAPPS; reboot into recovery; wipe data, system, cache and dalvik cache; flash ROM and GAPPS; reboot)! On this way u will "lose" your apps but userdata (e. g. photos) is still there!

Do the described above without wiping data (but that could fail). But remember: You're coming from another ROM so wiping data is recommended!

TWRP: which version?

Hi all.
I am going to root and reinstall a brand new bacon phone.
I'd need to know which version of TWRP has working backup/restore features and can work on CM12.1/CM13 encrypted data.
I've read different posts about this but am a little bit confused.
TIA for any help/hint.

Do you mean "formatting the cache from fastboot" or "flashing the recovery from fastboot"?

It's official. I don't know the meaning of what you said.
I mean, I never flashed a cache. I backet it up a few times but usually either I clear it(s content) or I format it(s partition).
Please help me to understand: I really don't understand.

Since the recovery (3.0.0) got stuck formatting the cache like it was corrupted, I restored it by flashing it as you do with a broken recovery.

This never happened to me, so far.
I install the recovery from recovery (either zip or img), then I reboot to recovery and do some checks. But I'ven't got the recovery stuck since years now.
Maybe I've just been lucky!
