Can't chown/mod /system/xbin error

---

Hello guys,

I am getting the following error when i want to update my G1 to a Hero rom. Can't chown/mod /system/xbin ( no such file or directory ) E: Failure at line 12: set_perm_recursive 0 2000 0755 06755 SYSTEM:xbin

If I do a search on this error i get answers like upgrade to the new SPL but i have the new SPL and the Radio I installed the radio first and then the SPL. Can someone help me ? I don't have this error if i update it to The Dudes cupcake 1.3RC2

when you go into fastboot, camera+power, the second line says hboot1.33.2005?

I got this error, i thought i was on the newest SPL as well, but i was wrong. just double checking.

JF 1.43 Recovery + Newest SPL will do the trick

Been getting the same error every time I tried to install Hero ROM. Then, I spent a couple of hours researching on this forum and the steps below are the result of my search. Hope this can save some migraine to some of you.

1. Get the JF 1.43 recovery image from JF Andblog|rename to update.zip|Alt+S to install

2. Verify you have the latest SPL 1.33.2005 by holding camera button on R side of G1 while pressing Power button, if HBoot does not read 1.33.2005; then you need to get latest SPL

3. Obtain your favourite HERO Rom, and flash away.

I have a hero rom now and its working great

I can't seem to get the SPL to update properly.

When my phone (UK G1) boots it says:

Android system recovery utility
Build: JFv1.43

A fastboot shows the following:

DREA110 PVT 32B
HSPL10.95.3000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.26I

So I've got the latest radio update.

I've downloaded the HardSPL file and gone through the installation of it several times. The HSPL line never changes to anything else.

I've downloaded the SuperHero v1 Beta2, but every single time I try to install it I get the same error as the thread starter: can't chown/mod /system/xbin etc. etc.

What on Earth am I doing wrong? What have I done to mess this up in the first place?

Can someone please help?

Sorry for the souble-post, but I downloaded the spl-signed file instead this time and now I have the different SPL line in fastboot.

I don't know how that never happened in the past, but I guess I must have missed that.

So, you were able to flash Superhero?

same error as OP, but on different line - line 41
Radio and SPL double checked with fastboot, they are fine (see my sig), recovery is the 1.4 CM + JF.

Can't flash many roms here around....... especially hero build......
