ZTE Blade flashing help

[Guest Charlie3999]

Ok guys I really need your help. I messed up flashing and because I did things in the wrong order. Here's what I did:-

1. I upgraded gen1 to gen 2

2. I then wiped data/factory reset without flashing clockworkmod recovery.

3. The phone then rebooted and stayed on the green man screen and thats it.

4. I managed to finally find a clockworkmod that would work v3.0.1.4 none of the others came on, it just stayed at the green man screen.

5. I try flashing and all it say's:-

Install from sd card

Finding update

opening update

E:Can't open/sdcard/update.zip

(no such file or directory)

Installation aborted.

I did another phone at christmas and that worked fine because I did it in the right order. But I do remember when I flashed the clockworkmod it was green and upsidedown, but I can't find one that does that now.

How did you upgrade gen 1 to 2 if it was the tpt method can't you just repeat that?

From what you've said it seems you just needed to flash a gen2 rom. If that doesnt work, try reflashing a gen2 clockworkmod recovery, like 3.0.2.7

Failing that, try reflashing the tpt as suggested above.
