sdcard/custom_update_signed.zip???

Is this an actual update zip made by AiO??

If it is then WTF as it passed the verification check!!

If that is the case then you are very lucky.


Have you tried a HC file such as 0042. These ignore vendor folders as they did not exist (or were not relevant at the time)

 

[Maverick923]

OK I found the 0042 file, and tried to use it. Unfortunately I keep getting "Erohibit update as a result of checking version or base sku
Installation aborted" Any other ideas?

OK this is what I got

What was the hack_recovery you used earlier? Was that just a renamed zip? As it passed the check then but failed due to 121116036 incremental being larger than the 0042.

 

[Maverick923]

Can you post recovery.log after trying that

Yes because another thread I was reading was talking about that, and I was trying what ever.

That file is supposed to get you full adb so you can push the recovery I believe.

Have any ideas yet on what I should do?

 

[Maverick923]

So has anyone having this issue been able to resolve? What should I do with this thing? Do I need to jtag, and if so what jtag? I am saving this thing, and wondering if I should continue to save it? Please tell me something.
