Error flashing zip '/sdcard/new_bootstrap.zip'
Several years ago, I flashed my Defy to CyanogenMod7 and now I wanted to flash this ROM. I was able to update/install TWRP recovery ROM, but run into issues when installing the provided zip files.
Code:-- Install /sdcard/new_bootstrap.zip ... Finding update package... Opening update package... installing update... E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (Status 0) * Verifying filesystems... * Verifying partion sizes... Error flashing zip '/sdcard/new_bootstrap.zip'
Note: I re-downloaded the zips (thanks, Walter79!!!), validated the checksums, but the same error for all 3 zip-files (new_bootstrap.zip, resize.zip, <kitkatrom>.zip)
I searched and found:
* https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797227
Suggests to install TWRP: I tried both TWRP 2.1.0 and 2.1.1 (same error)
* https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-sensation/help/eerror-status-0-trying-to-flash-t2905140
Suggests to flash the image via adb/fastboot. However, I am unsure how/whether this is possibel on defy.
Note: If I go to recovery (pwr down on blue light flashing), I have Android Bootmenu 1.1.5. Then I select "Recovery"->"Stable Recovery" to get to TWRP. Maybe something is wrong here...
The Defy does not support fastboot so that is not an option. Releases are installed through recovery, this means TWRP in later releases - earlier releases used ClockWorkMod.
The quickest way to get the Defy(+) to CM11 from rooted stock or another 'old partition layout' distribution like CM7 is probably to dump the new_bootstrap partition image contained in new_bootstrap.zip directly to the correct partition (/dev/block/mmcblk1p21 on a device with the stock partition scheme, /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 on a resized device - using this partition on a non-resized device will brick it) as described in #5848. Push bootstrap_ext3.img, resize.zip and the CM11 distributrion you want to install to the sdcard before you start so you can do everything in one go. From stock to CM11 it can look like this:
- Flash SBF
- root (Framaroot, 'Gimli' exploit)
- 'cat' new bootstrap image to /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 from adb shell or terminal
- reboot to TWRP
- install 'resize.zip'
- reboot
- install distribution
- ready.
For completeness sake I'll add some links to the required files, these are the versions I use on my devices so they 'should work'. Extract new_bootstrap.zip on a PC and push the resulting cache/bootstrap_ext3.img to the sdcard. Push resize.zip and cm-11-20150109-UNOFFICIAL-mb52x.zip to the card as well. Now follow the instructions in #5848, once rebooted in TWRP install resize.zip, reboot to TWRP again and install cm-11-20150109-UNOFFICIAL-mb52x.zip. Reboot and enjoy your 'new' Defy.
new_bootstrap.zip
resize.zip
cm-11-20150109-UNOFFICIAL-mb52x.zip
. Finally, I went with the build from walter79 (lineage-11-20180813-UNOFFICIAL-mb52x.zip), which is working without any (yet observed) issues.
Depends on what you consider issues... It is slow and using it rather converts into a mindfullness exercise, but stuff works from calling, taking photos, sending them via signal, etc.Hi,
still no issues?
I wonder - is this LOS11 with new-life partitioning? I got (had) Quarx' new-life running. But it is F**ked up "files in lost+found" so need to start with new installation :'(
And am not sure if I should do with CM11 or LOS11.

Thanks for problem list@Quarx: Thanks a lot for todays nightly, which is running very stable and smooth so far! :victory:
For your next nightly, could you probably look after bugs #3 and #5? Both should be easily fixable, because in my bug list I already pointed to the necessary patches, and some of us are really missing the torch tile - after all, this would bring a light to all of us in the wait for Christmas!![]()
