Try flagging the latest cm 12 nightly to get the latest firmware. Then wipe system, data, caches and install Euphoria

Incompatible recovery if you are using KK base ROM than flash latest recovery
Might solve your issue
If this aint help just let me know the issue in detail

I tried updating TWRP to the latest version (2.8.5.1) and unfortunately I am still getting "error executing updater binary in zip" when i try to flash the euphoria rom. I am on the latest ota for the OnePlus.
In the console, above the error message, it says "assert failed: oppo.verify_trustzone("TZ.BF.2.0-2.0.0109") == "1"" if that is significant at all.
Thanks for the help

Ok, i flashed CM12 and then wiped and tried to flash Euphoria and it worked!
Thanks for the help everyone.

Just an FYI, the tz assertion error has to do with not being on a cm12 firmware. Flashing the latest nightly automatically installs it for you. But if you want to go back to KitKat, you need to flash the cm11 firmware zip or you'll keep having an SOD

You need to flash the cm11 firmware zip or just the modem. You can find the files in the android development section

Unable to Flash Rom?

I'm using TWRP v2.6.3.0, I've tried Factory Reset and Advanced Wipe (Ticking off Dalvik Cache, data, System, cache). Then I go to install a rom, it gives me an error. I currently don't have another camera to show the error. I'll write what I see in the terminal:
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error executing updater binary in zip'/extern(not sure what's after this, it doesn't show).
Error flashing zip '/extermal_sd/cm-11-20131222-
Updating partition details...
And that's it, I don't know how to fix it. I've tried everything.
I'm using i727r by the way, not the AT&T version.

[Q] Problem installing ROMs (status 0)

I wanted to try a KitKat ROM so i downloaded a couple on PC and transferred to SD card. I did a backup (which really saved me lol) and then, as instructed , formatted system, data, and cache. Wiped Dalvik and flashed ROM (Paranoid Android 4.0). It started but after the "installing update" message I got a error message " error /location of zip/name of zip (status0)". I thought it meant that the zip was corrupted so i downloaded on PC again. Transferred to SD and tried to install following the same stepsand got the error again. After that I tried to install another ROM(Validus 5.1) and still got the error. Decided to restore and see if i could get help before trying again. Any ideas what is wrong? Thanks in advance for any help

Status 7 means that your recovery is out of date. I am running AOSPA Beta4 on my p3113 and installed it using the latest TWRP from the below thread. The version of cwm in that thread should also work.

I am currently using TWRP, but I have used PhilzTouch in the past. They both work pretty well. TWRP has bigger buttons that are spaced out better and has an easier interface to use. PhilzTouch has some other features but isn't as polished. It is just a matter of personal preference. Some Roms will have a recommended recovery listed, though.
Also, to make sure that the zip you download isn't corrupted, check the md5 of the zip you download against the md5 on the download page.

Biggest advantage of using Phillz touch is that it can detect OTG cable,so you can flash ROMs from USB device as well;on the other hand, TWRP allows you to flash 10 zips at the same time,it will release the overhead of selecting Zip one after another manually. So choose your options wisely.
Edit:-
One more thing I would like to add,Phillz touch blackhawk supports dual-booting through next kernel

Just wanted to say thanks again to jrc2. I went with TWRP because backup to sd card was not working on CWM and Philz. Backup would start and in the middle of backing up data or system tab would just reboot. But TWRP looks ok and flashed with no problems.

Are you using a custom kernel like ThunderZap/Phantom? Because you have to reflash it every rime you update. You can best use CyanDelta for it instead of CM updater.

I tried the CM updater and then flashed Phantom kernel, then I got a dialog box on the boot saying
"Android is upgrading

and it is stuck here.
Then I tried installing from recovery using these steps
1. Delete Cache/Dalvik Cache
2. Install from ZIP
3. Delete Cache/Dalvik Cache
Now I got the same message that "Finishing boot"
I waited on this screen for more than 30 mins still nothing happened, so I removed the battery and I got bootloop.
Finally I had to restore my old NIGHTLY update
What is happening??

You can ask the dev if he/she can compile a version with the Sony logo & CWM. Other than that, there's no solution.

ROM install failure

Hi guys. I read alot those days about everything and now i'm trying to instal CARBON ROM to my nexus 5.
When i'm in TWRP, i get this error when i try to instal the ROM:
Installing ' /sdcard/CARBON-KK-NIGHTLY-20141002-0125-hammerhead.zip'...
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file fould

Error flashing zip ' /sdcard/CARBON-KKNIGHTLY-20141002-0125-hammerhead.zip'
Updating partition details...
I updated the bootloader and still it gets the error.
The steps i use when i try to flash the rom are:
1. wipe: For TWRP- wipe system partition, data, cache and dalvik
2. get to install..
Hope you know this problem because i'm sick of it I tried to install a custom kermel, and bom, the error apears again.
Thank you!
p.s: sorry for my bad english.
Could be a bad download. Try again. Or perhaps you can ask in the Rom thread?
I get this error every time, i tried with kernel also. I cant ask there because i'm newbie.
Oh, you need 10 posts to post there. Look around and join discussions with some constructive posts, when you have 10 you can post in the Rom thread.
Or, simply try another Rom.
Probably a bad download. But in a terminal emulator on your phone what do you get when you type:

Shouldn't be a problem. But I'd delete twrp manager. Once you have twrp installed do everything through it, not twrp manager

Two things....Try philz....lol. Yes twrp should work, but try philz to see what happens.
And is your device encrypted?
Finnaly!!!! i downloaded 10 times the rom and it works... and it was a thing to mark under the install button and i deselected that.
Thank you guys! Love you all! :laugh::victory:
