Well the "something blah blah, Bad?" is a common problem :)

Could you re-download the latest version of Atomic and try to install it, if an error shows up could you post it here :) I doubt people here are going to be able to help you if they dont know whats wrong...

Since "something blah blah, Bad?" doesnt say anything usefull :P

Weird i also had this a few times but redownloading always solved it, what TPT do you use?

no TPT through clockwork only, TPT to scary for a novice such as me!

Tpt shouldn't be scary as long as you make sure using the md5sum that the bin file is not corrupt.

ok so what we thinking... redownload 3 times each time renaming them, try install each of them! if it works then good if it don't try something else?

OK fixed, Thanks guys, you wouldn't believe it, but the very next one i tried worked!, amasing rom, sooooo quick, but then again cm7 is quality too, Thanks

Nice to hear you finaly got it working :) doing a TPT isnt that dangerous there is a part about it in my tutorial if you change your mind.

this error normally means its a bad copy of the .zip to the sdcard, or the .zip is corrupt

or your sdcard is in a bad way and needs formatted.

i used to get this all the time, formatted the sdcard and not had that error since

If i do a backup in CWM, then change TPT and then restore backup, will the old TPT restore or not?

Sorry for bad english biggrin.gif

And what TPT does Atomic need?

Yeh sdcard defo needs formatting, its an old sandisk 4gb. I normally use a samsung 16gb class 6 which works a treat, though got it in my camera at present.

Thanks again, tillaz, wacky, tilal... you guys really know your stuff, and your advice is always top notch cheers!
