Hi,
I wanted to post this in the relevant thread, however because I have less than 10 posts, I wasn't allowed.
I tried downloading the latest version using ROM Manager, selecting the relevant addons. However, during the install, I saw the script was looking for version 3.0.4, not 3.0.5 (Which I had downloaded using ROM manager).
I just thought I'd let someone know. Has anyone else had this problem or just me? I'm hoping someone else will alert them of the problem.
Thanks,
Danny
First check in the root of your sd card if you actually have the latest version downloaded at all. If you do, just restart your phone in recovery mode and install it from clockworkmode (install zip file from sd card)

in adition the name of the thread can create confussion or "bad reputation" for MDJ vivo because says "BUG" and it seems its not a bug of the custom rom(seeing your ask)
i tried the last week to update mdj vivo an hasn´t this problem... but i followed the process that @ivanoe74 said...

Hey Guys,
Newer user here. Been reading over all the info in the forums quite extensively and am attempting to upgrade my Incredible. I thought I had gotten a good understanding of what I'm supposed to do, but alas, I am slightly confused.
My ultimate goal is to prepare my phone so I can install Skyraider 2.5.2 so I can finally have Flash 10.1. I am absolutely sick of watching out-of-sync videos (the ones that actually play) and getting errors when I try to view other vids. I'd also like to have the 720p camera and so forth.
Here is my current phone info:
Firmware version
2.1-update1
Baseband version
1.00.03.04.06
Kernel version
2.6.29
root(at)Dell-Inspiron #1
(modified 'at' as vbulletin thinks I'm trying to post an external link)
Build number
1.22.605.2 CL161494 release-keys
Software number
1.22.605.2
Browser version
WebKit 3.1
PRI Version
1.28_002
PRL Version
51920
ERI version
5
So far, I have rooted the phone successfully with the unrevoked 3 method and have installed unrevoked forever. I can confirm that the phone says S-OFF at the top of the HBOOT page so I am assuming that install was successful.
I just tried upgrading my radio to 2.15 but it didn't appear to work. I clicked 'yes' to install the PB31IMG.zip and for a micro-second it seemed to initiate, then suddenly it went back to the main recovery screen. I rebooted, checked the baseband and found that nothing had happened.
At this point I found it best to just stop right where I am to avoid a brick and ask the experts. Looking at my situation, can someone please tell me exactly what I need to do to install Skyraider 2.5.2? I would greatly appreciate the help. Thanks to everyone on this site for all the hard work and am sorry that I'm being a noob.
Try installing the 2.05 baseband

Make sure you formatted the sd card you are using with fat32.
1. Make sure SD card is Fat32 format
2. place PB31IMG.zip on root of sdcard (do not rename)
3. turn off phone and press: vol dwn + power to enter HBOOT
4. It will ask to continue press vol up for Yes
5. reboot and done
You can do nandroid back ups in recovery to back up your entire phone. That way if you would brick your phone you can pull your battery open recovery and restore the nandroid. When the phone is off you hold volume down and the power button at the same time to get to recovery. Then find out from these guys how to upgrade your radio. Theb your ready to go to the skyraider thread or use rom manager from the market to download skyraider. After you download it. Boot in to recovery and wipe data. Then go to "install zip from sdcard" and find the zip you downloaded and select it to install. Then reboot. Good luck

Ah, my SD card was formatted FAT16. I moved my files off, formatted it to FAT32, and moved them back. PB31IMG.zip is on the root of the card. Gonna try to upgrade the radio again.
Thanks to all for the quick replies. You guys are great.
Will report back in a few. *fingers crossed*
Success!
Baseband version
2.15.00.07.28.
Now, should I remove the PB31IMG.zip from the SD card?
Following the guide thread. PB31IMG.zip deleted.
I have downloaded Rom Manager and have performed a Nandroid Backup (I had done the backup previous to creating this thread).
I also downloaded Titanium Backup (per forum suggestion) so I can backup and restore my apps after the OS upgrade. Titanium Backup says it needs BusyBox installed to work. Gonna throw that on here and install it unless I shouldn't?
At this point is my phone ready for Skyraider 2.5.2? Also, is Skyraider the best, stable working version of Froyo out there? I've seen mentions of Cyanogen & Jager but can't really determine which one is the best.
I got my incredible last week and I've tried several ROMs. I made backups of each one and ended up sticking with SR 2.5.2 Vanilla based on my needs/wants. I also tried kernels and I'm very happy with KK's #2 kernel with SetCPU. CM6 has some issues with things I need (BT and no internal storage) but if those are worked out, that's where I'll be going. I had a Nexus One and ran CM for months.
Thanks for the opinion.
I'm currently downloading SR 2.5.2 Vanilla with optical joystick wake & social networking add-ons included from Rom Manager. Looks like I'd save alot of time by just downloading with the cpu and moving the rom to the sd card. But, is allowing Rom Manager to handle the install the safest method?
I've rooted, forever'd, and upgraded my radio to 2.15. I'm ready for SkyRaider, right?
Ya you are good to go. Make sure to wipe before flashing.
Success!
Now running SkyRaider 2.5.2 Vanilla!
Thanks to everyone to replied. I am so happy this went off without a hitch.
Question though -- when attempting to view a video on Facebook I got prompted to install an update to Adobe Flash. When I hit the link to install, I got an error saying nothing could be found.
Anyone else have this happen?

Uh no, you brick your phone, nandroid is not going to save you. Hence the term. Nandroid does not cover the radio either.
Success!

If you have Astro file manager look on your sd card under skyraider folder and install install_huluflash_player

i think you will need to install flash 10.1 from the market.
nevermind i think it should have been in the skyraider flash folder on your sd card.
Tinkering around with SkyRaider, I notice that when I go to set my custom ring tones/alerts my SD card doesn't show up under sound settings. I go in under Astro and I can see them. They're all still there. Their current path is
sd card/media/audio/ringtones
Do I need to make a new directory for the OS to pick them up?
Is anyone else getting the below error when trying to Flash ClockworkMod Recovery on 2.5.1.3? I just updated and this is the error I am getting:
Error while downloading from server. Please make sure that you have a stable internet connection, and that your SD card is inserted and has free space!
Working onwifi, stock rooted via gfree method. Only think I found with search is someone who had this problem disappear after a few hours and his thoughts were a server error with the clockwork servers.
Anyone?
I'm also extremely frustrated with this issue
Mine didn't change even when I connected via wifi

I`m also getting errors,can`t install the new 2.5.1.8 Recovery!
I am having this problem. I just got a replacement Droid 1 and obtained root through Soup and Root. I can't restore a backup through ROM Manager, I can't do much of anything through ROM Manager. It says I have the current CW as I am using my same SD card from before, but I can't download/ install a new ROM, restore one, or anything. When I tried to flash CW to see if that was the problem I get the same error. I have internet connectivity and my phone is working fine other than that.
I have been going CRAZY over this! I just upgraded my captivate to 2.2 today, rooted it and now I've LITTERALLY been trying to install clockworkmod for the past 3 hours, I have bricked my phone so many times and had to restore back to the default froyo and re-rooted it so many times and I keep getting the same error.
I've been trying to find the clockworkmod manually so I can just install it without ROM Manager, anybody have any clue how I can do this? I have a samsung captivate.
Also, I paid for the Premium version of ROM Manager via PayPal however I have no idea how to "reinstall" the Premium version without re-paying the $3.99, anybody know how?

There is no 2.5.1.8 recovery for Vision, it's a bug in ROM Manager where it shows you versions that are available for all phones.
Yes,now saw your answer at development section
2.5.1.4 also not working,only 2.5.1.3 available at the moment!
Not working for my buddy and I either. Must be a server issue . I have 2.5.1.3
2.5.1.3 is the newest at the moment!
Seems to be back online today...
There have been a few updates to the ROM Manager app overnight to fix some of these issues, try updating via the Market if you've had problems.
Still the same version of Clockwork Recovery for Vision so far though.
I tried to flash my Desire HD today.
I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964996&highlight=Installation+aborted.
Followed it down to every detail, but after i have runned the FULL-WIPE-1-2-3, and started installing the Android Revolution rom i get this error message:
E:Cant't open /sdcard/Android_Revolution_HD-4G-3.2.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I tried to download from another mirror, and ran a MD5 checksum on the file after download, and checked it up against the MD5 checksum that i found in the Android Revolution thread, and it was exactly the same.
What the hell is wrong?
May be a problem with your SD card. Do you have access to another one?
Hmm, no i dont have another SD card
I said i followed the guide to every bit, but i forgot that i skipped the radio step.
I did not flash the radio because i didnt know which radio to flash.
But now i saw that in the Android Revolution thread the recommended a radio, so i downloaded that radio and flashed it.
Could this cause the problem i had? That i didnt flash the radio before i flashed the Android Revolution rom?
I restored the nanodroid backup in clockwork so that i now have a working phone again, but damn i want this to work. If i do a wipe again will it delete the backup i made in clockwork recovery or do i have to make a new backup after i wipe?
SOLVED!!
I got it right now. Dont know for sure which of the things i did that made it working, but ill write em down if someone else has this problem.
- Downloaded the radio suitable for the rom, and flashed it
- Downloaded the rom flash image for the 5th time, this time i downloaded it via torrent
- Renamed the Android_Revolution_HD-4G_3.2.zip to update.zip

Thanks SO MUCH it helped! I redownloaded file (now 198 Mb to 128 Mb I had primordially) and renamed it to update.zip
P.S. I have HTC Desire, but I guess this problem is common
Solved, too.
Seems that I've solved the same problem in a much more weird and simpler one. Reboot, redo it, done!
Got a similar problem when installing the revolutionhd rom stuff next, and reboot, redo it, done!
No idea coz I'm a noob and would love to be a noob. I hate the processes to get the result I desire, so I have to suffer from it like a soldier who has to plant lots of flowers to get to the girl.
as the titel says it does not install.
but the wierd thing is i had succesfully installed it before.
when i install the zip it says that installed succesfully.
but when i reboot it is stuck at the alpharev screen.
any one knows what's wrong.
BTW: i tried this with cm7/r2 and cm7 and stock.
any one knows a solution?
need more info?
thanks in advanced,

problem
Hi, I'm new and also noob, so sorry
I have same or similar problem...
I made update from A2.2 to A2.3.3 official ROM from HTC for HTC Desire and than I found custom ROM with Sense 3.0 - Cool Sensation v7.
I made S-Off and I have HBOOT 6.93.1002 now. Tried to instal custom ROM, everything installed good, but after rebooting system is still in boot-loop and a can not instal boot-fix because I still get error regarding some error about edify...
Some like this:
"amend script(update-script) is no longer supported
amend scripting was depreceated by google and android 1.5
it was neccacery to remove it when upgrading to clockwork mod 3.0 gingerbread based recovery.
please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.
installation aborted."
Can someone help me? Thx.
Clockworkmod uses a new script since version three. Sometimes this script is newer than the rom's one. So you get this error. You have to flash another recovery which uses the older script (older cwm release, 4ext, amonra_ra or rmd). I recommend to do this via fastboot.
MatDrOiD I assume your reply is for me... thx for reply
After no possibilities to instal boot-fix I made this (your reply I read after that):
1. downgrade to RUU froyo 2.2
2. ROOT with unreworked
3. made 1GB ext3 partiotion
4. tried install LeeDrOiD via Rom manager
...and it works!
Now i'm try installing again Cool sensation but v8
- installed fine but with boot-loop in the end
- also instaled boot-fix but phone is still in boot-loop
I should work on it harder
Make sure you followed installation instructions for leedroid correctly.
TouchPaled from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
No, No... leedroid installed fine and works
I tried install cool sensation v8. And yes I know, it's not stable and final version
I meant the instructions for cool sensation. My bad!
SwiftKeyed from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
I installed ROM and than boot-fix because of boot-loop (I see just boot logo ANDROID from cool sense v8 in loop) and than weatherpack. Phone was still in boot-loop, so I tried again install boot-fix. It still wasn't helpful. May be is error somewhere between chair and keyboard btw. for instalation I used Rom manager and before installation made full wipe dalvik and ext3
Hi all,
I'm trying to install Android Revolution HD 12.0 Rom on to my n7100 Int. Edition.
Tried already Omega and works fine.
But I have a problem when using the obove image.
Using CWM Recovery I start Aroma from internal SD.
It always freezes during the steps "Google Applications and/or Custom Application".
No matter what checkboxesI check, it will freeze somewhere there.
I already downloaded the Rom, checked the checksum.
Also used an external SD-Card.
Always the same problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Installed TWRP Recovery.
With this, the flash worked properly.
Thanks
