CWM error: Thoughts?


Guest glossywhite

Recommended Posts

Updated CWM to 4.0.1.5

Tried to restore...

"Error while flashing boot image!"

if you are just doing a restore, pull the boot.img from the roms .zip (if you still have it) & replace the boot.img in your back up smile.gif

your boot.img must have been corrupted - try redownloading.

if you are just doing a restore, pull the boot.img from the roms .zip (if you still have it) & replace the boot.img in your back up smile.gif

Thank you!

[EDIT]

Nope, that failed too.

ALL recovery/install options are failing. Fresh bluemonte plus fails error 7...and have tried fresh copy of BlueMonte and a new, formatted SD card.

Okay

Done a TPT recovery, so back to square one. Now what? :)

here is the image http://files.podtwo....0.1.5-skate.img

get the recovery image above & rename it to recovery.img

then open bluemonte plus, drag & drop it into the rom's.zip where the recovery.img is...

should fix your problem smile.gif

Thanks for your help dude. Trying this now, and will get back to you. :)

NOPE. Failed again.

Yep. That's what I always do.

./adb reboot bootloader

./fastboot-linux flash recovery clockworkmod.img

./fastboot-linux reboot

All my files have correct permissions btw.

[EDIT]

Going back to TPT now, and will report build No. to you shortly. :)

[uPDATE AFTER TPT RECOVERY]

Right. Build is: OUK_P743T1.0.0B05

Just noticed - the assert statement failed on the writing of the boot.img...

Please check the updater script, and verify that it is indeed writing the boot.img, errno 7 in standard unix denotes argument list too long, so it could be something there on the line in the updater script itself... B)

Thought you said you're a "ubuntu hacker"... have not forgotten you btw when you first came on to the blade forum a while back!

Can whoever created the updater script within the ROM's check this?


assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"), 

write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"), 

delete("/tmp/boot.img"));

ui_print("written boot.img");

A possibility that the /tmp partition is not mounted or there is not enough space on it to be able to successfully write the raw image to the boot partition thus the issue. B)

If you begrudge helping, and are just here to show off and gloat over forgotten squabbles, I'd rather not have your "help", as it evidently comes at a price which I am unwilling to pay.

Back to the topic: I tried installing tillaz' original BlueMonte, but it borks out when it comes to the writing to /tmp/boot.img

what about another rom? and see if that works.

Done, but fails with same error.

its possible clockwork has a problem ,reflash clockwork should do it.

Done, multiple times, latest version.

Fastboot can also flash boot images. Try flashing from there.

You mean:



./fastboot-linux flash recovery clockworkmod.img && ./fastboot reboot


? :)

If so, done that.

You mean:



./fastboot-linux flash recovery clockworkmod.img && ./fastboot reboot

[/code]

?

If so, done that.

nope. The boot.img inside the zip file. Copy it into the fast boot folder and ./fastboot-linux flash boot boot.img && ./fastboot reboot
