On Myn's thread i downloaded a new boot animation or a new kernal and when I install it I get this

How do I fix this? I toggled off signature verification thinking that would fix it.

Are you using cloackwork? If yes switch to Amon_RA

Wonderfull!! Thank you

The message was because that animation had the Amend scripting [old] and you were running clockwork 3.0+ which uses Edify scripting [new], so the files aren't compatible. Your options are to as the other user suggested, use amon_ra 2.3 or use and older version of clockworkmod.

[Q] [QHELP!! Error installing ROM using ClockworkMod, how can I fix this

Noob Here!
Ok so I was using the RCMix3D 3.5 Sensation and because there is no Bluetooth I decided to switch to Cyanogenmod 6.1.1 or 7.1.0 while I was loading the new ROM, CWM stooped working and rebooted after this I got the white HTC screen followed by the black screen that has the android logo and nothing happened after that
so I rebooted back into CWM and tried to load the ROM and got the following error:
---Installing: /sdcard/update-cm-Desire-signed.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Welcome to Cyanogenmod 6.1.1-Desire!
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device")=="Bravo" || getprop("ro.build.device")=="Bravo" || getprop("ro.product.board")=="Bravo"
E: Error in /sdcard/update-cm-Desire-signed.zip
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted
I get the same if I try another ROM and I cant return to my old RCMix3D ROM because the recovery doesnt seem to find my file.
What can I do? Cant it still be fixed?
is my phone damaged?
sorry, Im new to this and im really frustrated because I dont know whar to do!

i was afraid I would not recover my phone.

AOKP kitkat installation abort

I am trying to download AOKP's nightly aokp_maguro_kitkat_nightly_2014-01-04 but whenever I try to flash it the bot shows up with a error exclamation point and with the message at the bottom:
"set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E: Error in/sdcard/0/aokp_maguro_kitkat_nightly_2014-01-04 .zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted"
I tried to flash older nightlys of the kitkat update but I get the same error. I have tried to wipe data/factory reset but that deosnt work. I can flash the AOKP mod I had before I tried this so there isn't a major problem if I can't update, but I would like to update to kitkat to improve my phone.
Anyone know why I keep getting this message and how to fix it?

I think you have to update your recovery. Older versions are not compatible with kitkat. I'm using Philz touch recovery, here's a link to his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860
You'll find different files for different types of tuna (galaxy nexus), choose the correct one according to your actual model, install it, and you're hopefully ready to flash.
Hope I could help!

Yes, you need to update your recovery. I had same problem with an other kk ROM.
I suggest you to download last cwm from the official site and install that.
After that you can install the AOKP 4.4! :thumbup:

Issue installing new ROMS in SGH-M919

Just to provide all the information I have on hand, I have the
T-Mobile SGH-M919
android version 4.3
baseband version M919UVUEMK2
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.4.7
My issue is that regardless of what rom I attempt to download i get the error below. Specifically, I've tried to download virginROM 2.3, which seems to be compatible with my device. From what I understand status 7 is in place to keep you from flashing an incompatible rom and so I'm not too sure how to proceed from here. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Please open ROM manager to report the issue.

I just ran into this a few minutes ago using Philz Touch. The solution I found was under the install zip menu, you should see "Don't Allow Old update-binary. It should have a check-mark; simply untick that option and try again.

I'm using CWM and I don't see the option to check "donm't allow old update-binary." When I turn toggle signature verification off I get
E:footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
and then get prompted to ask if i want to install an untrusted package. I attempted to download and apply the new 4.4.2 Google Edition by Davnh, haven't tried TWCP yet but i feel like it should still be doable via CWM.

Ofcourse it will fail. Change your recovery to either cwm 5.0.2.8 or philz or clockworkmod 6

Thanks a lot!
It works.
Believe me, I read multiple threads before. Had a lot of phones already rooted and installed custom roms before. This marvel just was bloody incredible. Never had so much trouble with unlocking the bootloader via htcdev, HBoot-Problems, Downgrade, Goldcard.
But now all in all it works and this rom seems to be really nice.
