Rooted my Evo using Unrevoked 3, flashed Amon Ra recovery did my Nandriod backup, flashed Rom MikFroyo 4.5 really love this rom. After this i have tried to flash other roms and themes always get a abort installation message. Please tell me what am I doing wrong.
By any chance are you using clockworkmod 3.0+? if you're getting the abort message:
1. The file is amend scripted, and isn't supported because 3.0+ uses Edify, which lacks support for amend.
2. The file isn't signed; right before you "install zip from sdcard," select toggle signature verification so that the system doesn't care if its signed or not.
I'm not using clockworkmod I'm using Ra supersonic 2.3 and I already tried toggle signature verification and I still get the abort message, thank you for your fast reply any other suggestions
Try updating to 2.3 of amon_ra. Is it possible the downloads were corrupted?
i made a mistake on my last reply I'm using 2.3 amon_ra sorry about that, could be that the files are corrupted, but I'm downloading them from XDAdevelopers sites, funny parte is that i flashed rom Mikfroyo 4.5 without a problem.
Its possible that the file was corrupted, but do post what happens.
Thanks man really appreciate your help I'll keep trying see what happens.
Alrighty, and no worries. I'll be around for a lil' while.
good to know teh roxxorz thanks again.
Anytime, and here if ya need anything else.

Ok so.. I cant find an answer that I can understand.. Ive searched and searched but I cant seem to understand what I need to do.. I really, really want to flash sacs HD Rom on my evo but I can't seem to do it..
Can someone please trll me or guide me to how..
I have an evo with
hboot 2.02
Version 003
Rooted with unrevoked
S-off
Stock rom
With clockwork mod recovery..
I had hboot 2.10 tried to flash a rom and it kinda did.. Well it just showed the custom boot screen of the rom then it went black..
I forgot to back up .. So I searched for a stock pc36img.zip file to restore
And when it did I then had hboot 2.02..
So now I want to really badly change to BOSS HD rom..
Can anyone please, please help me or guide me on what im doing wrong or what I need to do..
I was thinking of downgrading to hboot .97 by flashing another pc36img.zip but with hboot .97.. Will this work or what do I have to do to flash that rom.. Someone please.. Im obssesed with trying that rom.. Thats the reason why I got an evo..
Are you still S-OFF? And I sugest you use Amo-ra for flashing Roms, you can install it with Rom Manager, go down to alternative recovery in RM. Good luck.

As evolish said, I suggest changing to Amon Ra recovery, just a suggestion. Some people like clockwork, but I swear by Amon RA, just more reliable imo. So you got stuck at a black screen after the boot animation played? So are you still s-off after running the stock PC36IMG? I would've thought that would unroot you and take away your custom recovery. So if you are still rooted with s off, use rom manager to flash amon ra, as evolish said. Then wipe data, cache, and davlik cache x3. Flash the ROM. Reboot into the ROM. Be aware of which radio versions you have as well, as some ROMS suggest/require that you have the latest radios. If your bootloader says s on after running the pc36img, you probably need to re root. And also, I could be mistaken on this, but I don't think that 2.1 or 2.02 hboot are downgradeable, but again, not positive on that. I think it said it in calkulins radio thread. Good luck
But can I flash them.. When I tried with hboot 2.10 it said when supposibly flashing
"amend scripting (update-script) will no longer be available
amend scripting was deprecated by google in android 1.5
It was necesarry to remove in when upgrading to the clockworkmod recovery gingerbread based 3.0. Please swich to edify scripting (update- script and update- binary) to create working update zip packages
Writing boot"
This was with clockworkmod recovery
With RA recovery it said it wasnt signed or something like that..
Ya.. Im s-off.. I will try as you said .. Flash RA recovery and try to flash the rom once again..

In RA, the newer versions (2.xx) there is a "signature verification" setting that you need to switch off. Some of the devs don't sign the file, and if you try to flash an unsigned file, you will get that error. If you toggle that setting to be off, so it doesn't care if the file is signed, you'll be good to go. Use Amon.
EDIT! : If you do decide to use ROM manager to flash Amon Ra, and the "flash alternate recovery" option is grayed out, you must first select "flash clockwork mod recovery", (even though your already on clockwork, perform this step), then after that, the 'flash alternate recovery" should no longer be grayed out.
Thank you soo much both of you for your help..
Ive managed to change the rom.. Ill wait for sacs to release a better version.. Its still a little buggy

You're welcome.
Well I'm trying to install Myns warm Rom update and when I try to install it I get this message saying installation aborted. I have Warm's rom 2.2 on already but he just updated it and I want install it. I am still new to this and this is my second Rom I put on my Evo. Any help would be great I want to get this installed cause it looks great. Thank kyou
Don't use warm updater, flash in recovery. Not sure if that's what you wanted to know.
Swyped from my sexy EVO.
Sorry if I wasn't clear. I moved the Zip file downloaded to the root of my SD then I backup all my data, did a data wipe then tried to install the new zip from recovery and then thats the message that appeared. So i'm stuck on what to do. Thanks for the quick reply though.
Hmm do a nandroid restore then flash amon ra recovery. Easy switch by using rom updater I think. Then backup again then flash. You should be ok. Just don't try restoring from a different recovery menus backups.
Swyped from my sexy EVO.
Thank you my friend. I have successfully installed it Did what you said and it works. Thanks for the quick reply I love XDA!!!!!
I wanted to try out this ROM. Since the newest Clockworkmod won't install it due to not allowing amend scripting any more, I flashed Amon Ra recovery. I then completed a full wipe, installed Warm, and got nothing more than a boot loop.
During install, I also received the following error:
E: Wrong digest: system/app/com.htc.MusicWidget.apk
E:Verification failed
The install then aborted. It installed if I disabled signature verification.
Did I do something incorrect, or could I have just had a bad download?
Apparently they music app signature was not matching the rest of the zip and that will cause bootloops..... you might want to report it to incubus so he can look into it...

You may also want to try out the nightlies. I have had great luck with 04-01 release.
however you will need to flash clockworkmod 2.1.5.2 then install like normal. You can get the clockworkmod 2.1.5.2 from the nightlies post
I was flashing the WarmZ ROM with clockworkmod 3.x and it did nothing but stay at the HTC Incredible white screen. After flashing the correct clockworkmod everything has been smooth.
i'm using an Evo for my work phone. It took a week to get it active and my number ported. i put a custom rom on it and i was too dumb to remember to make a nandroid backup. i need to update my data profile for the line to be active and i cannot do it from my current rom.
my bootloader shows "S-on"
i rooted with unrevoked 3.
im on a mac so using htc sync may be out of the question.
i tried using the PC36img.zip and i got an error message during one of the steps and it wouldnt revert me back to stock. i tried the steps on this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141
and i get the error message "main version is older! Update fail!"
im quite familiar with android, rooting, flashing, etc but i have never had to revert back to stock (as i see it this is the only way to activate this phone through the "update profile" option under settings).
anybody have any help here? i need this phone first thing in the morning for work and if i cant make any calls im going to be screwed.
If you're rooted, you should be s-off. You should be able to flash a sense rom and update your PRL from there. Please go to the bootloader and tell me what it says so I can know where to go next.

i can get back into that rom but nothing else.
You do NOT need to unroot for that. Download the STAND ALONE update here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=830153
Put that on you zip card and flash it like you would any ROM (Backup your current ROM and apps if you want it). From that ROM you will be able to update your PRL and Profile.
Almost any other Sense ROM will work (NOT Sense 2.0).
i just downloaded and tried to flash "Supersonic_1.32.651.1_rooted.zip" and i got this message...
"amend script is no longer supported....installation aborted". i found the link to that rom on the official wiki as stock rom #7.
@jstalford im downloading the rom you posted now. i will let you know how it turns out. thank you.

As the user above said, you can flash that, and update you profile. You can update your profile on any sense rom. You can't do it on AOSP roms [CM7, ect] and sense 2.0.
I'm assuming you're using Clockwork Recovery? It will work if you downgrade Clockwork to v2.5 or if you switch to Amon Ra 2.3:

You got that message because you're on clockwork 3.0+ and it only supports edify scripting, and you flashed an amend scripting file [not supported]. To fix: flash an older version of clockwork, or switch to amon_ra 2.3; I'll be floating by as well.

tried this and got the error message "E: cant open /sdcard/SL_3.70.651.1_02.25.11.zip (bad) installation aborted.
Bad download, try downloading again. If you downloaded from your phone, try it from a comp.
Or flash Amon Ra Recovery and the first ROM you downloaded.
This is the file download for Amon RA:
http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=PC36IMG.zip
Here are the instructions from the thread I linked:
Place PC36IMG.zip on the root of your sd card.
Boot the phone into the bootloader by powering the phone down, then press the power and the volume down buttons at the same time.
Once the phone boots into the bootloader the phone will automatically recognize the zip file. It will ask if you would like to update, select yes and let it do it's thing and you will be good to go
ill try redownloading sprint lover's stand alone rom. i tried loading pc36img.zip onto my sd card and booting into the boot loader and it says "checking" the blue bar on the upper right side fills up and it takes me back to the main bootloader screen. i also tried downgrading clockwork mod to the older version. the clockword mod app tells me it was successful but when i boot into my rcovery image its still the most recent one.
if all i need is a standard sense rom, does anyone have any others that will work with the newest clockwork mod? that might be the easiest way for me to go about this.
i downloaded sprint lover's rom again. this time i used one of the mirrors. placed it on my sd card. flashed again. flash was successful but got stuck in a boot loop. im going to head back into my recovery image and make sure i re-wipe everything just incase thats the issue...
Sounds like a good plan. Let us know what happens.
aaaaaand were up and running! i flashed and wiped so many times i must have forgotten to wipe again before that test run. the line is active and the rom is running smooth. thanks to everyone for the help.
my last question? if i flash any other roms down the road from tonight, i dont need to worry about updating my profile or anything correct? from what i've read thats only necessary when activating the line or performing manual updates? this is my first sprint android device ive been modding and tweaking tmobile android phones since the G1 and im still getting used to the changes!
thanks again everyone!
Glad you got it working. And occasionally, the PRL will get updated. Like now its 60677, next it'll be 60678...you'll see lots of threads on it. Then you would be on a sense rom, update, and do ONLY the profile update. Never accept an OTA while rooted...bad things will happen. If you're not on a sense rom [CM7 for example], you'd have to backup that rom, flash a sense rom, update, then flash back. I use CM7, and keep a backup on myn's 2.2 [sense] just for that purpose only, and takes all but 5 minutes.
Ok. So I've rooted using Zedomax's Kernal.
I'm not trying to make a back-up of my stock ROM, but there is an issue.
Code:
-- Installing package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
[COLOR="Red"]E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed[/COLOR]
Installation aborted.
[code]
I'm having some weird verification issue. I'm trying to make a back-up of my Stock ROM since that is VERY important. :p, but as you can see, I can't. Any ideas?
I've been searching, but I've seen things on where people are trying to flash a ROM and having this issue. It was solved by renaming the ROM to update.zip. As you can see, I'm not trying to flash a ROM, I'm trying to make a back-up, so that's not going to work for me.
Thanks for any help. Finally got my phone back from that guy over on mobiletechvideos, and I'm not trying to get it bricked again. Taking precautions. :cool:
FIXED (I think): So All I did was flash CWM using Odin instead of using ROM Manager, and it gave me CWM instead of the Stock Recovery. So now I was able to make a back-up.
I think I lost my Root, but since I have a back-up I don't really care anymore. I'll just flash the Kernal again and then just flash Starburst.
Hanging on Clockwork Mod
I did exactly what you did, and then reflashed ZedoMax's ROM, but think it did not work right. When I reboot into recovery, I get the exclamation point inside a triangle with little green android guy, and have to hold down power button long time and _then_ it reboots into clockwork mod. That’s not right, is it? It's a SGS2, Sprint, rooted, and then ran into same trouble as you: Recovery 3e requires signature verification for flashing external files, so it balked, throws error can't read file signature, hard stop. Replaced CWM with this: acs-eb30-clockwork-epic-touch-4g-sep-20-4-00-pm.tar to try to get around rebooting issue, but I am not good to go yet, am I? Do I have to go back to stock and start over?
Same problem. Anyone?

If you want a kernel that overclocks, I say go with Rogue Desperado. Zedomax hasn't been updated in a long time and you will get a lot more user support because most people overclocking are either using Rogue with SETCPU or repacked stock with Tegrak app. I honestly don't remember if Zedomax even has the latest version of CWM which is 5.0.2.7. If you want to play it safer, go with one of the kernels I mentioned and you wont have any issues with backups or restoring them
