Hey guys, I've been trying to flash a new radio, but somehow never succeeded.
The attachment is a screenshot I've taken....
What am I missing??
You are missing an old recovery compatible with that flashable zip...
Extract the radio img file from that zip file and flash via fastboot.
via xda app

Sorry for asking dumb questions.... but how am I supposed to do that???
I am new at this
Use google and the search function on xda. Im on my mobile so its hard to search stuff for you. Besides its been answered before. Also check the link on my signature. I believe it has the instruction in there.

Another way, if you have installed ROM and want to update CWM can use this tool:
- Google play app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unstableapps.cwmrtouchinstaller
- Download older version: http://d-h.st/esM or http://d-h.st/M1y

*Required: SuperUser (ROOT access)
1. Download recovery version from here (img type): http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager/ and save to your sdcard or any folder easy to browse.
2. Install CWMR Touch Installer
3. Open app you will see FLash from other.... Choose that option and browse to your recovery.img file.
4. When flash finish. You can use reboot to recovery option on menu and see result

OKay. Thank you! I will be copy your post to 1st topic.
You just flash the zip through CWM recovery like normal? I don't own this phone, I'm trying to upgrade my father in law's phone. I'm just trying to figure this all out before messing with his phone. I do NOT want to use Odin because I don't trust third party flashing utilities (have had bad luck in the past, particularly with Odin).
how do you go about doing it manually? I understand that the SGS2 doesn't have fastboot so something like
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-hercules.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
???

If your want root rom. You need odin. My topic have 4 way to update cwm recovery. And you have best choice for you.
I tried update by using older cwm to flash new cwm zip. So after next reboot cwm still old version. I try way 4 and i done.

I am aware. I had to download it from the official Samsung site when i flashed my father in laws phone the first time. But i am a mac/linux user. Odin is not a good solution because it complicates a process that should be really straightforward, eg
Code:
sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
By third party software i mean not part of the android sdk. Odin is proprietary closed source and only works on Windows with a select few samsung phones, whereas fastboot is intended to be universally accessible.
But back to my initial question, do you just flash the. Zip in recovery like normal?

Download the latest .img file from here
Download the above file.
Using adb shell or terminal emulator:
su
dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery-twrp-hercules-[xxx].img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
#! please note the [xxx] should be which ever # twrp .img you choose to use
Make certain that you get this command right. Typing the wrong number could result in a brick!
I just made a zip for myself lol

It is harder to help you when you post the same question to different threads. I only gave you the link to this thread so you could download the Odin flashable CWM tar file from the OP IF you are not able to install CWM using ROM manager. Have you tried ROM manager already?

Have you tried installing the .tard.md5 posted in the OP, it should work through Odin.
Edit: I've tested the files and Odin crashes.
Has anyone had luck installing the .tar.md5 files, there's a bunch of downloads but no feedback.

I made and tested this one and it worked. I think the problem is that you have to rename the img file to recovery.img before making the tar file. Let me know if it works for you.

how did u make the .tar file out of the .tar.md5 file ?
I'm trying to flash back to the Stock firmware with TWRP. I have the zip file on my SD card but when I try to flash it is reporting that it is unable to open the zip. I confirmed that the file is downloaded correctly and not corrupt as I am able to access/extract it on my PC without issue. Any ideas on how to get past this?
Its probobly an ODIN zip not a CWM zip. Extract the zip and if it has a .pda in it then you have to use ODIN on your PC

The name of the Zip file is

I downloaded it from a couple locations that listed it as the stock AT&T firmware for this phone. Each location same error.

Im pretty sure that the one you downloaded is just zipped factory firmware and not flashable zip. You will need to extract tar file inside if there is one and flash Via Odin. If you are using it for att there is one that you can flash via twrp from link below.

Ah thanks for the help, I think thats my problem. Testing with the link you provided. Thanks.
I wonder why we see a lot of people asking questions here about install errors from files they got at some random (and often unheard of) sites around the Internet? Don't people know that xda has all the files they could need?

You do not extract anything from that zip, just flash it whole from the recovery as you would any boot.img

That IS a kernel, not a ROM. Just flash it via fastboot then... You can also do it via ADB if you know how to, if not, use the search bar

According what I've read in other posts you can't flash a raw kernel.zip with s-on.
It has also been pointed out that a boot.IMG is Rom specific, so they most likely wouldn't be interchangeable between different roms

boot.img is a kernel so don't search for a boot.img in a kernel.zip - it's the same thing only not compressed. ranger4740 is correct. You shouldn't use boot.img from one ROM and put it on another, but that's not what you asked for... As for the fact that you can't flash a kernel.zip with S-ON, I didn't know about that so I can't help you there... Sorry :/ Try asking your question in the kernel thread...

Ok, i also tried to do some research and read some forums, seems my only way to s-off my dhd, which i will be researching next... Thanks:fingers-crossed:
My desired rom has already updated with the kernel that i wanted flash ,so my battery life is now great, although there a bug in battery charging where in it notifies late yet it charges the phone batt. (not that big if a deal for me). Also i created an aroma zip file to install all system update on my phone since the original update flashes the kernel... Thanks for the replies "learn a lot from all those researches i made" :victory:
Newb question I know, but I honestly searched everywhere. Their homepage only has .img files and I've managed to find a few relatively new .tar files but I need a .zip of 6.0.4 whatever the latest version is so I can flash it within cwm already (Can't Odin since work PC's permissions won't let me).
If someone could tell me where to get the cwm flashable zip of newest CWM that would be amazing, or how to make one myself.
Thank you in advance.

If you have an unlocked bootloader and a custom kernel with CWM embedded into it you are able to download that file to your phone and flash it through CWM.
If you have a locked bootloader however you have two options;
1) Download the file to your phone and then extract it. After extracting it you are able to move all of the files in the .zip to their relevant place on the /system partition.
2) If you don't want to do that you can download Flash Gordon and install that to your phone (search it in the forums) and then download the runtime.zip to your phone and then use Flash Gordon to flash it for you. Flash Gordon is similar to CWM, however you cannot flash ROMs in it and you don't have to reboot your phone until after the mod has been installed.

Bro download the runtimeskin.zip and extract it (and you will get two folder named system and meta-inf ) move the files from the system folder to its respective places i;e (to system/etc/permission and system/framework) in your Xperia using root explorer and reboot your phone and don't forget to clear the cache and data of play store and play services.
