Known Issue
Used (gio,GT-S56600) for assert. so if you got assert error while intall zip package you must change assert script on updater-script into:
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "gio" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "gio" || getprop("ro.product.board") == "gio" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-S5660" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-S5660" || getprop("ro.product.board") == "GT-S5660");
updater-script can be found inside zip (META-INF\com\google\android\)
Not every Installable zip can handle mount system, data & cache.
so you should mount it manually before flash them. mount menu can found on: Mount & Storage Menu

Use ext4 and rfs version, formattor is not needed
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium

Just as a FYI, RFS is essentially used by the stock rom only. If you come across a rom thats based on stock, chances are it will use RFS. An example would be the ArpegGioMod rom by Darkshado. If you want the most versitality, go with what voetbalremco said.

its really simple, just follow the instructions its what helped me do it on 7.1 and now with upgrading to 7.2

Hi,
Thanks you for your answer, but there are always a thing that i don't understand... I come form a stock rom, so my filesystem is RFS, but to use cyanogenmod, if need ext4 no? So i have to format in ext4 no?

You need to flash ext4-formatter.zip when you come from stock.

My CM7 Install guide.
-Note: Install every zip named: "update.zip" and place on the sd.
1 Download latest and install ClockworkMod Recovery (signed_cwm-5.0.2.7-flashablezip-ext4only.zip > ext4 internal partition, you should use cwm with ext4only). ( Place it on root of your sdcard. reboot to recovery mode. install this cwm from recovery)
link recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421650
NOTE 1: From cwm-5.0.2.8 not need to choose right cwm for your rom (ext or rfs). CWM can used on ext4 & rfs filesystem. But if you want to format from rfs to ext4 (example: installing cyanogenMod rom from official samsung's rom) U need ext4formatter & flash it from cwm-5.0.2.8. ext4formatter.
1.5 reboot in recovery en factory reset etc. (And cache wipen. See note 2)
2 Flash Cyanogenmod 7 ROM :
Download and copy the latest CM7 ROM to SD Card
Reboot to Recovery Mode
Select install zip from sd card
Select choose zip from sd card
Select the new CM7 ROM
Select Yes - Install update
Wait till the Installation is finish
Select reboot system now
3 flash Cyanogenmod 7 rom update. Same way as stap 2.
NOTE 2:
It's not automatically wipe your data. if you want to install fresh rom, you must wipe data before install it! If you from stock / custom rom based on rfs filesystem, u must flash ext4-formatter.zip before flash CyanogenMod. link & instruction can fount on This Thread. otherwise you'll stuck on android logo because it cant mount rfs filesystem! have problem after upgrade from earlier cyanogenMod? you should wipe your data!!
4? ext4-formatter.zip (Flash from Recovery) Not needed if: signed_cwm-5.0.2.7-flashablezip-ext4only.zip is flashed.
Sd card can be formated with a uttility form windows or from recovery.
4.5 Make a nandroid backup if you like! (Ore first a Tatanium backup of new progams installed)
5 Install & Enable a2sd Darktremor (Clean up sdcard a bit first if you like)
(This programs comes with CM7)
go to terminal emulator and write:
su
a2sd zipalign
a2sd cachesdreset.
if u want use a2sd extream (move data to sd-ext):
a2sd datasd
6 Install & Enable Simple2Ext (S2E)
(Personally i did skip step 5 and 6 for now.)
Gl
Last note: If you want to be able to install a other rom that uses a frs internal system partition it would be best to install a original rom. A rom made by Samsung (OTA its called i think) After that you're internal partition is on rfs format again.

[SOLVED] Cannot flash CM 9 RC1 Build 2 on my Tmobile G2

After flashing CM 7.0.3 a long time ago, I haven't really updated anything or touched anything when it comes to the recovery, SU, etc since.
Seeing ICS, I tried to flash CM 9 RC1 Build 2 the way I've flashed other ROMs before: Loading the ROM and gapps zip to the root of my SD card, rebooting into recovery, wiping phone, wiping cache, then applying a zip. When I try to flash CM9s zip, I get the error:
E:can't open sdcard/name_of_zip.zip (bad)
I've tried various CM9 mirrors with the same result. I have a feeling it might be because I have a much outdated recovery, and SU binary?
My ROM Manager: 5.0.0.8
My ClockworkMod Recovery: 3.0.0.5 (latest 5.0.2.7?)
My SU binary: 2.3.1-ef (latest 3.1.1?)
When trying to update my SU binary it fails when copying su to /system..
Can anyone give me a starting direction on what I need to do to get CM9 flashed and working?
Thank you!

Use the superwipe + 4ext 1st. or change ur recovery.
File sytem needs to be ext4 fore ICS onwards as far as i know.

You can run EliteMod and CM9 for example on an ext3 filesystem (the zip provided will format whichever filesystem to ext4 when done in the actual recovery).
Though I have not tried CM9 since beta13 I don't see this being a problem. Though I would advise doing a FULL WIPE (factory reset + cache + dalvik) before flashing on any brand new roms especially when going from GB to ICS.
(last time I checked clockworkmod doesn't let you format a specific filesystem or convert backups from ext3 to ext4 , for that I use the 4EXT recovery).
@ OP you should not have to copy the SU binary anywhere, it should come with CM9 anyways (just like busybox and superuser.apk). The only additional thing you may need to flash on top of it is google apps, just like CM7 would have been.

Worked like a charm! I installed 4EXT recovery, wipe/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and CM9 installed just fine.
Thank you so much!

[SOLVED] frustrated flashing rom

Problem:
I can't flash any custom rom successfully.
At first, I use CWM but I can't wipe dalvik cache.
Then, I switched to RZ recovery and it can wipe dalvik cache for me.
I wipe dalvik, data, cache before flashing many new roms, however, it just doesn;t work....just stay at s5660, some kind of screens
[solved]:
1. install EXT4 formatter via CWM5.0.2.7 rfs+ext4( I am using Stock RFS system ROM)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421650
If you have error status 6, unzip and repack it (save only or compressed best)
2.wipe data/factory reset and wipe data
3. advance-> wipe dalvik cache
4. flash a ext4 only CWM
5. flash MIUI ROM and it was successful

Re: frustrated flashing rom
Did you move from rfs to ext4??
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium

I am using RFS format
tried cwm rfs or ext4. both not working to wipe dalvik
tried ext4 formatter but installation aborted (status 6))

anyone have idea?
Where can I find some old CWM to try? I can only find 5.0.2.7.

you need a recovery which supports RFS+EXT4 file system.check on development section.

Unable to install Rom!

Hello everyone,
I am new here on Desire,
So I S-OFFed my desire,Flashed Custom CWM recovery,
My problem is,
Everytime i try to install a custom ROM,it shows me an error as "Installation aborted : status 0"..i tried to wipe /data,/system/cache,doing factory reset etc.none of them they helps.it always shows me this error.any solution?

Do the ROMs you are trying to install require an sdcard partition. Most do, and you'll need one anyway to install several apps.
- Flash 4EXT recovery.img using fastboot (better recovery, makes good partitions for desire unlike CWM)
- Backup and partition your sdcard using 4EXT recovery (max 2GB ext4 partition, no swap)
- Check md5sum of ROM.zip, to make sure you didnt get a bad download
- Full wipe and flash ROM.zip

Yh so like eddie said u will need to partition ur sdcard for that rom. Theres a good guide in desire general "how to partition sdcard correctly" follow that guide and then u can flash roms. The reason is that the desire has bad/low memory so the sdext partition is needed, definitly for sense roms.
