error saying that E:cant open/sdcard/cm7.zip (bad)
installation aborted
First make sure your phone is S-OFF AND ROOTED. If it is then the .zip file might be corrupt or something, so just download it again.
Well I think it's something like that anyway.
it is s-off and im already running cm7 but i want to reflash and i dont think there's a problem with the zip file
I think you are using wrong recovery
Let me guess it is yellow from XDA?
You must use blue CWM from Alquez
Got the same problem yesterday.
What I did was updated cwm from general section and it worked
im using blue one....can u send the link nihal??
here's it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213229
so 1st put it in ur sd card then go in recovery and then it'll ask u to apdate automatically on the 1st screen where it shows hboot version and all so after updating remove this and then add the rom files and then just install the rom after clearing those cache's and all.
im using this oly but still cant flash even after clean wipe
can u give more info and some pics

More info like GSM or CDMA, where you got the rom you are trying to use, etc...
Are you CDMA or GSM.
What CM7 are you trying to use?
Did you try the latest nightly build for GSM here:
From clockwork mod to clean install wipe factory data then mounts format system then flash zip from sd then choose the nightly=Clean install.
Try reformatting your microSd card.
SD Formatter 3.1 for SD/SDHC/SDXC
I've tried everything ..Im usin gsm...I want cm7 not nightly ...I've formatted sd card n tried n still doesn't work ...I've also tried flashing cm7 nightly but same error...

Sounds like a corrupt file. Delete the files, clear download cache and try again. Make sure you're on WiFi with a solid signal as any data hiccups can corrupt files.

I did this. No luck. Also I can't update my superuser app so I have the old one with the ninja.
Edit: so I manually flashed the newer superuser zip for 2.2 and it updated that way. I re-downloaded virtous 1.0.1 full rom, thing is like 264mbs I think. Anyway I was on wifi new router full signal and it finished. Same error came up after booting to recovery and trying to flash the zip. Error was file directory and next line was (bad) I have wiped and all. No luck. Please help I'm dying to flash new roms!!

Are you going through rom manager, or simply dl to sd and reboot manually to recover?

I got it fixed i just went out and bought a new sd card.
Do you have enough free space on your SD card?
Yes I do i hope i do anyways i have 25.00gigs
Do you do factory data reset/clear cache/ clear dalvik? Are you using cwm 2.###? Do you wipe first with cwm3 then cwm? You really shouldnt have this much problems , you may want to go back to complete stock. Are you downloading roms to pc then transfering? Maybe files are corrupted. Thats about all i can tjink of. I dl roms directly from phone, then reboot to recovery to install. Never use rom manager.

I clear dvlik cache/cache/data and i'm using clockworkmod version 2.5.x.x i will not use 3.0 and im downloading roms to pc and then flashing and i wont touch rom manager and when i download from the phone i keep getting no enough freespace i think its trying to save it to the phone or something and not the sd card.
It would help if you would create full sentences with proper grammar and spelling... It only adds to the confusion to what your problem actually is. Try re-downloading the ROM. If it doesn't work again, try upgrading CWM, you can always downgrade it later if you need/want to. As donny said, the file may have been corrupted, I had this happen to me the very first time I tried flashing a custom ROM. I re-downloaded it, and re-copied it onto my phone and that seemed to work for me.
Ok
this is my dilemma
Im trying to flash a miui rom
but i cant because it keeps failing everytime i flash the radio and then rom
I really need to know what conditions that need to be met in order to flash this rom
Do i need to revert back to stock firmware?(how and where can i find the sbf or ruu?(new to htc world))
I just really need a step by step guide with the conditions so i can begin to flash the miui rom
because as of right now im on a cynogen rom with 2.2.1 and everytime i go into recovery i wipe, then flash radio, and then reboot and then flash miui rom zip and the i get installation aborted like 2 secs into the flashing
plz help!
U don't have to flash radio before every rom ... just wipe data and cache then flash the rom and straight after u flash the language pack if ur talking bout the miuiandroid.com release.

What sort of failure?
Unable to flash? Or unable to boot?
You don't have to flash the radio. Just the rom should work.

Try flashing the RoM without radio, and make sure you have SD Card setup right 2 partition first Full fat32 second 1GB ext4.
Then try radio after ROM is working.

and then i tried the miui_Au.1.7.15-R2-signed.zip and it does the same thing >.<
Looks like a corrupted download. Did you check the md5 of the file?

1st: What type of HTC you try to update ? Accordig to this you should find your package.
2nd: Where you Download your files ? Try Re-download full package from official site. I find my radio package in Installation guide, where link to file is given and it is included together with other HTC drivers for Windows.
3rd: Wipe ALL available cache (Dalvik, user, etc.)
Also, for me worked first to install ROM, then Radio, and at last language pack.
If you are first time user like me, I suggest to upgrade to official version 2.3.4a. The only thing that will not work is FM radio and 720p recording. You'll have to wait for another official version. For beta versions there is no guarantee for anything (at the end it is beta, right) ??
If you are also Desire user, I can put here radio file if it is allowed, just for you.

MIUI 1.7.22
Installation instructions:
Download the version you want from the downloads above. Move to your sd card. If using a cmtd version you will want to make sure the mtd text file is on the root of your sd card. If using a prior cmtd replace the mtd text file or now make sure the file is on the root of your card.
For Standard version do a wipe followed by format boot and system. Then install the zip and reboot. If you don't get the default wallpaper reinstall or use a different one. Sometimes it shows sometimes it doesn't. Apps2sd will enable on boot with dalvik not moved also. It should pick up and start using apps2sd. If you want dalvik moved open terminal at type su enter. Then a2sd cachesd enter. If using adb type adb shell enter. Then a2sd cachesd enter.
For Cmtd with Apps2sd if using cmtd prior. Browse to the Miui-1.6.3-Cmtd-Bravoc folder if that is how you extracted the zip. Install miui remove recovery and reboot recovery proceeding with these regular instructions. Browse to the above folder or where ever you put the files. Install miui recovery and reboot recovery. It is a good idea to wipe and format boot/system. Though should be done with the install of the recovery zip. Your choice to do it or not. Then install Miui-1.6.3-Bravoc.zip when install is done reboot system. You should be good to go with nothing else to do.Apps2sd will enable on boot with dalvik not moved also. It should pick up and start using apps2sd. If you want dalvik moved open terminal at type su enter. Then a2sd cachesd enter. If using adb type adb shell enter. Then a2sd cachesd enter.

i have successfully installed revolutionary.. but then when i tried to flash rompuzzle4.5 with CMW3.0, and try to reboot it.. it just stucks on the htc logo.. what do i do??? please help!
You probably didn't wipe all.
Go to recovery(cwm) and select wipe data, wipe cache and wipe Dalvik cache.
Then try to flash your custom Rom.
it did not work.. im using froyo.. i tried to wipe it all but still nothing happens.. now im stuck at HTC logo.. i heard that CMW 3.0 has lots of bugs. i want to downgrade to 2.5.. how do i do that?
Well it is not because CWM 3.xx has bugs. You can not flash sense based roms with CWM 3.xx. You need the older CWM, i.e. 2.xx.
Just go to development forum, and read through full index thread. You will find all the necessary info there.

4. after I flushed that rom, my phone would not boot anymore.. it would just stuck on htc logo.. I wiped all of the requirements but still nothing.. Now i cant use my phone..
guyz.. please help me.. i dont know what to do..
Just download Clockworkmod 2.xx and put it on your sd card. Boot in to recovery, the one you have i assume is 3.xx. once you are in recovery, install zip from sd and choose the clockwork2.xx you downloaded. Now i presume you will be in cwm 2.xx.
Once there, do all the wipes and flash wildpuzzle. Now it should work.

Can you provide a link to the thread / download link of WildPuzzle 4.5? Never heard of it.

guyz!! finally! i found out what the problem was!! i knew i didnt do anything wrong! it was just the ROM itself has the problem.. so what I did was i just downloaded the earlier version of that rom.. I think the mistake was from downloading it, maybe it was interrupted when i was downloading the latest version.. anyway.. thanks guys! =)
I use dk Rom now, flash v 4.5 boot it up once leave it to settle for five, then reboot to recovery and flash v4.5.2, without wiping. After this I had a problem moving the dalvik cache to my SD card with a2sd gui, flashing a different kernel fixed that for me.
Other than that this is an excellent Rom.

Just flashed a cm 7 rom from recovery and after starting the phone again flash ur cutom rom via rom manager(included in it).
So I've been having GPS issues, yeah I know, flash the radio I got told, used fake flash CWM 2.x to do it, somehow it didn't work... (said "successful" but radio version in "about phone" didn't change)
BUT apart from that, more importantly, since then whenever I use ROM Manager (v4.8.0.2) and select "Backup Current ROM" it
boots into CWM 5.0.2.0
Starts backing everything up
Get's to near the end and says "ERROR in backing up \sdcard\.android_secure"
Then it says please see the log
Then when I reboot into CM7 in Rom Manager the backup is there...
My question: I have enough SD Card space, and Nandroid backups went fine until I tried flashing the new radio...does this error I'm getting affect me being able to flash that Nandroid backup, is it corrupted? Or can I just ignore the error?
Thanks!
First of all format ur sd card in fat32 format using ur PC...then try again and if problem persists try another SD card....

The SD card doesn't need formatting cause it worked fine like a day ago...? And it's in FAT32 already...
Shipped-ROMs doesn't offer radios, just RUU's which I don't really want, my ROM is fine it's just the radio...
Try a nandroid back up in normal phone recovery instead of using rom manager and see if it completes with no errors.

Hmmm that's odd, it worked fine doing it that way...thanks Maybe it was that the Revolutionary CWM is 4.x and Rom Manager is 5.x although why it stopped before is beyond me...it's working fine thru normal recovery though
