Background:
I have an unbranded desire, which I rooted using Unrevoked 3.
For some reason, my phone says it's up to date, though I'm still running android 2.1.
Problem:
I downloaded froyo from the net (tried two versions, one which is 86,491kb and one which is 92,262kb), I tried updating using the recovery option, but I always get the following error dialogue:
"Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: file_getprop("system/build.prop"
, "ro.build.fingerprint") == "sprint/htc_supersonic/supersonic/supersonic:2.1-update1/ERE27/195459:user/release-keys" ||
file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "sprint/htc_supersonic/supersonic/supersonic:2.2/FRF91/218634:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted."
If I enable the signature verification it fails with a signature verification failed error.
I'm going crazy already trying to update, would be glad to hear any suggestions,
Thanks,
Joel
You CAN'T upgrade on a rooted phone with the OTA update
Your choice is unroot and suffer the buggy OTA Froyo rom or rejoice and install a custom rom that has many fixes for Froyo already applied

what's the best and most stable ROM and how's the best way to go about installing it?Cheers BTW i've got a rooted Desire which is unbranded and unlocked original.Just got it rooted today.
See the other thread where I answered this question but you should try Neophyte 1.6 which is the best Froyo Rom imo or Pays Rock Solid if you want a great 2.1 rom.
I had exactly this problem here is my thread

Hope it helps
why so many of you suggest Neophyte 1.6?

I am trying to install the 2.2 OTA and getting the following error in recovery:
Build: RA-evo-v1.7.0.1
Finding update package...
opening update package...
verifying update package...
E: no signature (624 files)
E: Verification Failed
Installation aborted.
I am running http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715915 just the first file, not the root file.
I am guessing because i have a custom recovery installed?

having this same issue, i believe i had flashed back to a non-rooted ROM and using stock recovery, i recall flashing a new kernel but assumed when i flashed back to the stock ROM that it would overwrite this?

Yep, I'm getting this too. Been trying to flash back to stock but not really sure how to go about doing that. Can someone help so I can get this update please? Thanks in advance.

Hai..
My First Post
I bought a nexus one from my friend.. It was rooted(boot loader unlocked).. Lately new update for android 2.2.1 was pushed and it failed at verifying signature..
I kinda like OTA update. Is there anyway i could go back to some firmware where i could get OTA.. If that's possible could anyone guide me through..
1) I flashed the firmware to 2.1(stock as said in the site) and tried to update to 2.2 then the update failed at assertion error
2) then i flashed to 2.2 stock(non rooted).. Then i got this verification error..
I flashed it using the easy methord downloading the zip to sd card->Recover->zip from sd card..
I've been trying to update to Jelly Bean, but every time I run the update in Clockwork 5.5.0.2, it fails with:
Code:
assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "google/takju/maguro:4.0.4/IMM30D/262866:user/release-keys" || takju.maguro:4.1/JRN84D/392829:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
What am I doing wrong? I have a GSM version and I'm pretty sure its the takju version as I bought it on the first day they released in the Google Play store. If there is a way to verify this, could someone tell me or point to a place that tells me?
Which .zip are you trying to flash? If its the official OTA you must be on IMM30D.
Yeah, I'm trying to use the official OTA... how would I go to IMM30D if I'm currently on IMM76I? I didn't see an image for IMM30D or anything on their factory images page.
It's not listed because IMM30D is a non-retail image.

Hi Folks,

Looking for some help trying to update my gsm nexus from ics 4.04 to jellybean.
I have downloaded the jellybean file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20843237
this is the file i downloaded to the sdcard f946a4120eb1.signed-yakju-JRO03C-from-IMM76I.f946a412.zip (Is this the correct version to use)

Have you tried this method?? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28661716&postcount=908
1st time posting and rooting/flashing, so please be gentle...
Followed this link and successfully rooted my Rogers GS3 with the GS3 Toolkit (chose the #9 "Canada Rogers SGH-i747M" option when selecting phone).
Made nandroid backup successfully.
Now trying to flash latest CM10 build (cm-10-20121111-NIGHTLY-d2att.zip) from here: http://get.cm/?device=d2att using these instructions but the install fails pretty much immediately with this error:
assert failed: getprop ("ro.product.device) == "d2att" ||getprop("ro.build.product") == "d2att" E:Error in /sdcard/cm-10-20121111-NIGHTLY-d2att.zip (status7)
would be very grateful to anyone who can tell me what I am doing wrong and how to actually get CM10 on my phone.
Thanks in advance!
I received that error using an older version of cwm. Updated to current and fixed the issue. Not sure if twrp supports cm10 based roms.
