it has to be signed .. read JFs info for his "Build Environment" .. very easy to do in linux .. you can't just modify the zip and be done .. files must be signed
thanks for your response
No need for the entire build environment. Just get the AndroidMod.zip file (google for dl sources) and run the modified update.zip through signapk. There is a readme included detailing how to use it.
I have the sign app but I can't figure out how to use it. I searched but I could not find a good set of instructions.
Open your command line, change directory to the signapk directory (also for convenience your update.zip file should be in this directory too) then type:
java -jar signapk.jar testkey.x509.pem testkey.pk8 update.zip update_signed.zip
That's it. The update_signed.zip file will be the finished file. If it gives you an error 'java' is not a valid executable, that is because you don't have JRE or JDK installed.
ok I did all that put the update.zip that is signed on my sd card with nothing else on it. started teh up date the phone verifies the file. then it starts installing as soon as it starts to install I get this error on my phone. "E:Can't find update script installation aborted.
Somehow you deleted the update-script. Check the zip file to see if its still present:
\META-INF\com\google\android\update-script
it is still there

Confusing.
it is only a 3k file. I found a 14k file in another update.zip I had
still says it can't find it
What archive creation program are you using to create the zip?
winzip what should I be using
Hm. Idk, I was just curious. It shouldn't make a difference really. Particularly if the signing tool worked fine. Maybe someone else can shed some light on this.
Try and re download your sources and then modify and resign.
Also be sure to check your sources after download and transfer (SHA1, MD5 etc)
ok I redownloaded the file and repeated the process and still get the same error. all I am trying to do is remove the camera app from the jf1.5adp1 build and put it on my phone .
Hi,
I recently ported the ClockworkMod recovery to a new device. I built a fakeflash using the CyanogenMod SDK without errors, but when I install the update.zip signed with the test keys it fails the signature verification. I found the ota certificates zip file the device used, but I don't know how to sign it using the device's ota certificates. Any help is greatly apperciated.
Hello,
i would like to sign my update.zip that i have to put in sdcard of my rockchip device
to be loaded on recovery (stock 4.2 01)
i tried with auto-sign but in the signed zip seems is missing the otacert...
any suggestion?
thanks
Hello,
My device is the Mate 9 (MHA-L29C185B110) and I seem to have a problem with the camera.
When pressing the button to take a photo, the camera app restarts itself. I try again, but didn't work, to no avail.
I also tried to record a video. It seems to work, but the camera freezes but it's still counting, otherwise recording.
I have just recently flashed a custom recovery img (TWRP), the boot img on another thread that prevents the device from being automatically encrypted, and SuperSU root.
Do any of you have a solution to this problem?
Would this be because I haven't flashed Public_data.zip and Full_HW_data.zip?
And will this problem fix if I completely install the MHA-L29C185B172's firmware?

It could be a problem if you flashed a boot image for a different model. You need boot image for C185B110. It should work without hw and Public zips, but a lot of other things break without flashing those. Updating to C185B172 will fix it.
By the way, which supersu did you use?
If the one from the "Decrypt" thread in Guides you don't need to flash a pre-decrypted boot image, the installer does it for you.

As for the SuperSU, I think I took it from the full root guide w/o decrypt img, but obviously I had to use a decrypt img because of stock
SUPERSU-2.79-MATE9-init.d_support
For the boot (No force encryption boot)
This is probably where things went wrong. I flashed the wrong build image.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/development/stock-boot-img-library-t3573312
I had to use above link because I couldn't flash SuperSU since I don't have an external sd to extract it from (Since you have to format your data before flashing it)
I couldn't find the hw and public zips for C185B110, so if you have it, a link would be generous.
Would flashing stock boot img for MHA-L29C185B110 fix it?
and what would happen if i flash stock boot.img?
and do you have a decrypt boot.img for C185B110?
Thanks!

It would probably fix it yes, but no boot image or hw/public exist for B110 so I'm guessing it shipped with that build.
You'd have to update, using https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
I don't think you can use Firmware Finder as you're probably missing the System Update feature.
Either that one I linked or FunkyHuawei, but Funky cost money to use.
Thanks,
I will try using the link you used.
although it is not clear.
On manual update step A, do you need to download all three?
the base, the OS(windows) and the model?
and where do i put these files?
and on b and c on update zip
do i have to download two update.zip?
for example, C185B110 and C185B172
do i also need to download full ota instead of just ota? fullota is incompatible, says firmware finder on mobile

Yes, download base, os and MHA. Extract all to the same folder. You should only have one folder named HWOTA and the files/folders in that. If it extracts to a folder with the same name as the zips, enter the folders and copy hwota folder then go back one folder and paste/merge so you end up with one folder named HWOTA. Easiest way is putting it directly in C:\hwota\, if your windows version allows it. Else place it on desktop. (long file paths or a path containing spaces might make hwota not function correctly).
You need to download all 3 files (fullota update.zip, hw zip and Public zip), easiest way is using firmware finder to download. Either mobile or the pc version. For pc go to the common base tab and search for your model and then download the build you want including public and HW zips.
You only need to download the fullota update, hw and Public zip of the build you're updating to. If you're on b110 and going to update to B172 you only need to download B172.
Rename the files according to the guide (update.zip, update_all_hw.zip and update_data_public.zip), place them in either hwota/update folder or make a HWOTA folder on your sdcard and put the renamed files there.
When running hwota, select script update folder or sdcard update folder depending on where you put the files. Select same model update.
One last question:
Does it have to be FULLOTA, not just OTA?
Hello! I need to know how to replace the warning says Bootloader unlocked in samsung devices. I have already followed plenty of solutions found on internet but got no success. My procedure as follows;
1.Got stock rom file and extracted up_param.bin (There's no param.bin file on newer devices -mine is M01Core)
2. Opened file and tried to replace, delete orange_state.jpg, but it fails with error in 7Zip
There are some data after the end of payload data
I tried it with 7zip android, 7zip standard on pc but no luck.
3. Next I used a hex editor and replaced image successfully without corruption in archieve.
But when I attempt to flash it via odin, it's also blocked with security error.
So any suggestion or solution are highly appreciated. Thanks.
