Hello! I am new to the site so please be serious! Ok, so here's the problem: I rooted my Galaxy Nexus from Verizon to install CyanogenMod 11, Once I got the rom onto my phone I entered recovery using TWRP Recovery, then I tried to install the rom. After that it failed and I can't remember why, but I was being stupid and clicked the format sd card button and bricked my device. Now I'm trying to flash the rom again through ADB and Windows sends the .zip file to the phone, then while trying to install it gives the error of "E: Error executing updater binary in zip" and I cannot figure out a way to fix it. I need help as soon as possible and it would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
Nobody? Nobody has had this issue or a solution?

thats because the rom you are trying to flash has no signature, all you have to do is use a recovery that lets you flash unsigned .zip's, the latest version of clockworkmod recovery that comes with the unrevoked flash tool lets you do this
I did what you said and it worked from what i can tell and it loaded on AuraxTSense. The problem is at start up now it just says loading, this may take a few minutes to complete and just hangs there. I can't do anything with it and i can't change the rom from the recovery menu so now i'm even more stumped.

at witch part is it saying please wait? has the rom booted? did you do a full wipe before flashing? try doing a full wipe from the partitions menu in recovery and re flashing the rom
rebooted it and this time it just loaded up properly. Strange but hey.
Thanks for you help on my previous problem. It's basically the same issue but i've also tried deleting the partitions in the recovery menu. I've tried changing the rom from clockworkmod, nothing is working. It just puts AuraxTSense back to default.
Hey everyone thanks for taking the time to read this.
I'm trying to install CWM 5 on to my Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830D.
It's running on Gingerbread 2.3.4.
I followed the guides to a 'T' and still can't figure this out.
I put the zipped file onto my SD card. When I go to install the file the installation aborts.
I've retried this process over and over again with no luck. I also tried to root my phone and I have the same problem.
Installation aborts..
The error it gives me is this: E: Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip .
I tried downloading the CWM 5 zip from other websites with no luck still.
My goal is to install the CyanogenMod 7.2 for Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830.
Thank you in advance for anyone who has read this and replied to help me fix this problem.
Cheers,
Brem.

to install CWM use Odin not recovery mode from your phone recovery mode is good to flash signed packages like updates from manufacturer you get error because that zip package containing CWM is self-signed anyway it fails because is not signed by Samsung so use default/stock recovery mode only to flash official updates -if you get one
look here for a howto guide
Hello,
I just had my phone unlocked tonight by Alejandrissimo
Well worth the $. Very fast and easy.
I managed to flash kernel fxp-cm9.img and boot into recovery. I had downloaded 0607-cm9-zues**.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24652511#post24652511
And attempted to flash via instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508585 And got an error assert failed: **bunch of getprop stuff*** (Status 7) Installation aborted.
Now, from scowering I have deduced that I should have been using a different rom so I've got FXP134-cm-9-2. Zip from the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447542 thread. But I can't seem to access the mass storage when mounting in CWM (v5.5.0.4) to copy the new rom. But correct me if I'm wrong my phone probably wont boot with that kernel on stock rooted rom will it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried looking around quite a bit.
Okay, so got the 134 on the SD via computer, but still get the same results. Any suggestions?
Solved, just had to delete some lines from update-script Now running cm9
I I just received my galaxy nexus SC-04D locked to docomo,
My goal is to have it rooted, running cyanogenmod 10, and carrier unlocked.
Which order do I do things in, and which guides should I use for each step?
I am a little worried that if I first root, then install cyanogenmod10 that the **** docomo app will not work on cyanogenmod10..?
and do I have to unlock a bootloader? (i dont even know what that means)
Thank you.. I:m a relative newbie and am looking forward to exploring everything available for a power user of a rooted nexus.

Download the .zip from your computer, move it to the root of your sdcard and flash in cwm.

I did as you said and got closer to success, but it CM10 got stuck in bootloop.. so I went in to try to hipe or restore, and now it seems i:ve wiped too much, when I click reboot, it says *no OS installed! are you sure you want to reboot?* so now i:m pretty messed up..
when I click install it shows two nightly:s that i:ve downloaded, but when i try to flash it , it gives me that same erorr
unable to open zip file

Hello everyone
a while ago i got a 13mb update for my GT-I9192, but i couldnt find any way to get the update to work, even tried deleting the update.zip so that i would download again, i recently tried to manually flash the update.zip from the external SD but i get the "can't open sdcard update.zip bad Install aborted" mesage, when i try to flash it the normal way i get the same error but displaying the "status 7" mesage, im also a mac user so i can use Odin to do it, so i was wondering if anyone could help me with this.
PD: i know about the existance of Heimdall but is way to complicated to me, and i just want to flash an update.zip
Thanks :good:

If it's an OTA from Samsung don't think you can just flash from recovery. Definitely not from a custom recovery. Have you tried "flash fire" from Chainfire? I've flashed whole stock roms and kernels with this on the S4 Mini with stock OS and stock kernel and just root.
