Hi All,
I came to know that both these files are not there together for those wanting to unbrick their Droid Pro after flashing the SBF file. I have copied these files from the sd card root/cache folder while updating to 3.8.7 after I bricked my phone while flashing CM7.
All you need to do is rename these as update.zip and flash it in stock recovery. But do it in the same order. First flash 2.26 file and then 3.8.7 file.

Could you please provide a mirror for these files? megaupload is dead.

ok i have the evo i am on a stock rooted 2.2 but i cant seem to figure out how to flash the custom rom. i have followed all of the steps but when i go to install rom from sd card and click on the rom i want to install i do not get the option to back up and wip etc... it goes to folders like system/ data and meta.....wtf is this y isnt it working?????? help me
Did you leave the rom in a zip file?
i tried downloading it on my mac and transferring it over and from my phone and the files download in a folder containing seperate folders. but when i download it says zip though
should be 1 file 'whateverROMname.zip' and it needs to be in root (not in sub folder) of sd card.
its on the root im compressing the files into zips now then ima see if it works

Why are you zipping? the file you downloaded should be in .zip formant already. Just drag and drop that .zip file on your card.
Try rom manager from the market, it works great, it has some updated roms pre installed or you can download to sd card, very simple to use, for a noob like me.
when i downloaded it it wasnt it was in folders. ok i just went through the steps then after backing up and everything it took me to the recovery screen i selected reboot device and it brought my **** back to the standard rom wtf
Here is how i do it.
1. Download Rom (the zipped file)
2. Put on SD card
3. Reboot into Recovery
4. Install zip from sd card option
5 Choose zip from sd card
6.Choose the zip file you put on sd card in step 2
5. Reboot
Lmk if this helps
I was deleting some junk files from the Apps folder and when i finish i deleted the whole folder by accident, My phone keeps rebooting I have an Arc S L18a.
Please Help. Thanks
What rom are you on?
If you are on stock, you could extract the system/app folder from the ftf file, make a flashable zip from it and flash the folder back via CWM.
If you are on a custom rom, flash the rom again without clearing data.
Don't forget to make a nandroid in case anything goes wrong

I'm dont think im using custom rom, I just rooted my phone with the help of this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683957).
How do I do that?
Download the ftf file for your phone from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330314
You can extract the ftf file with winrar or 7zip.
Then use the Xperia ROM Manager to convert sin to img and then unpack system.img.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952732
When you've unpacked the system.img you can drag the contents of the app folder into the update.zip, copy the update.zip to your sd card and enter CWM to flash it.
http://www.mediafire.com/?1268g66o25ehqkm
Use this app to install CWM to flash the zip.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pvy.CWMinstaler&hl=nl
When your device starts booting, keep hitting the volume down button until you get into cwm.
Then select "apply update from sd card" with the volume keys and press it with the home key.

Hello
My problem is that I downloaded the nand stock rom from the thread and extracted it and tried to put it in the clockworkmod\backups folder and I think it was ok (not sure) but by mistake I deleted all of backups (the stock and the one i created) and I tried to copy it again and create another one but I noticed that there never 2 backups.
The one that I created I can see only from the restore option in recovery and not in the folder ( I used to see it in the folder ..) and the stock one I can see in the folders but not in the restore option.
Should it be like this ? Am I doing something wrong ?
How can I restore that stock backup if I cant see it ?
I'm on ordroid 9 with TWRP recovery.
And the stock one gets in ZIP but i extracted it and copied as folder.
Thanks in advance , I'm afraid to flash new version.
That's because you didn't put it into clockworkmod>backup folder in the sd card and btw you don't extract anything .....every nandroid backup must have 5 zip files in it (don't extract it) and should be named as the date and time it was created
The folder should be like this
Clockworkmod\backup\date & time folder\backup files

I know :\
I extracted the stock backup folder from the zip . not the content in backup.
Forgot the part about renaming, that actually might be the case.
Thanks both of you, I'll try it.
Hello,
My huawei p6(international version) failed to update to KK 4.4 from B132 JB 4.2.2.
Here's the reason:
E:Error executing updater binary in zip/external??
Error flashing zip ' /external_sd/dload/B510.zip'
FAILED
Anyone had this issue ?
I'v tried all the options what are around the web.
Any other suggestions?
You can't flash official rom in zip file.Unpack zip,folder dload copy to ext. card and than flash rom with stock recovery.

Do you use TWRP or Stock? You cant use TWRP for Huawei Firmware.

I have used both, and funny it is, both recoverys show the same error. I just flashed TWRP and tought it might give me a better answer.
Also i tried trough Huaweis suite and it tells me an error like this"Unable to unzip zip" on every firmware i try.

It seems like you've put the zip file directly into your SD card, you have to extract the folder named "dload" and then put it in the root directory of the SD card.

Where in your SD card are you putting the dload folder with the update.app file?
So you have to rename B510.zip to update.zip and then put the zip onto your sd card in a folder called dload, after that just use local update or force update via the three button method.

I'm no expert, but I think he has to unpack the update.app file, put it inside a folder named "dload" and then move that folder into the root directory of the SD card. I don't think the system can read the zip file directly.

Normally this would be right but it's an OTA update so it has to be a zip.

Hi! I had the same problem there was no way to install B510 downloaded from offical site so I downloaded B510 for Romania by some advice... so it might be a problem with your .zip file
https://mega.co.nz/#!kd0kQJba!iQJsijbnwWnyH2zKBPxu35MbO7xBS3cFlzTH4LFYY70
Ok now I can post outside links so I sugest u to install this one. Unzip>put : external_sd/dload/UPDATE.APP>go to settings>about phone>system updates> make backup(optional) and apply and the phone will do the rest (cca15min)

Just rename it to update.zip (in lower case) and place it to internal storage (not in any folder).
