Installation Aborted
- every time I try flashing a Rom it starts up but then says "installation aborted". i've tried multiple Roms and i have this issue every time so i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong.
I'll write out all the steps i take and hopefully someone can help
open Rom manager
click "reboot into recovery"
click "wipe data/factory reset"
click "wipe cache partition"
click "install zip from sdcard"
click "choose zip from sdcard"
pick a ROM
it's starts installing and then says "Installation aborted"
Now I can't even restore a previous backup06-10-2011 04:25 AMLike 0 - 06-10-2011 06:06 AMLike 0
- You need to have the right recovery for the rom you are trying to install. Look in the thread for the rom you want, most of the dev's will list the proper recovery to use to flash their rom. It has to do with scripting in the rom from what I understand. If you are using the wrong recovery you will not be able to flash the rom. Also, when using rom manager make sure you are downloading a rom designed for the Optimus V. As far as I know, the only rom on Rom Manager for our phone is AOSP. I wouldn't recommend flashing anything else or you run the risk of it not working properly, at the least, or bricking your phone.06-10-2011 07:52 AMLike 0
- I was getting that with the rom manager recovery so I just flashed aosp recovery and deleted rom manager

Just as clarification, I can't even get the phone to boot into the stock os, it's stuck with all the orange menus of ROM manager06-10-2011 11:41 AMLike 0 - how would I get that/do that? because when i flash a rom of the stock os it says that the installation is complete but when i go to reboot it just brings me back to the same screen06-10-2011 11:45 AMLike 0

All others have to use xionia or RA recovery. Download mmarz aosp recovery zip. Put it on the root of your SD card go into recovery and flash go to advance and reboot to recovery. Buttons will be fixed and should beable to restore and or flash.

- Well thank you very much for asking. Was always more steps than my lazy a$$ wanted to take doing it any other way. For some reason doing it through terminal never worked for me...probably some n00b mistake although there really isn't much to it.06-10-2011 12:34 PMLike 0

i put the latest version of aosp on the sd card along with the recovery image
i go to "install .zip from sdcard" but neither of them show up
A different ROM I downloaded shows up but when i try to install it, this comes up
--Installing: /sdcard/stockopv.zip
finding update package...
opening update package...
installing update...
ohno...
...

when i try to reboot it just brings me back to the same orange menus =/06-10-2011 05:17 PMLike 0 -
- Download a different recovery, rename it to vrecovery. I use xionia. Male sure its at the root of your sd. Use terminal emulator to flash it. Type
Su
Flash_image recovery /sdcard/vrecovery.Img
Than reboot in to recovery and try flashing your rom again06-20-2011 01:12 PMLike 0 - Most of the Android users are getting this error while installing ROMs on their Android Device. To fix this follow the steps
- Move ROM to your PC and extract it anywhere
- Now go to Meta-INF folder and then navigate to /com/google/android directory
- After reaching to above mentioned location search for updater-script and then open it with Notepad++
- Now search for “assert(getprop(“ro.product.device”) == “devicename” || getprop(“ro.build.product”) == “devicename” ||” (exclude first and last quotes )
- Now change device name to your device suppose if you have nexus 7 then change devicename to grouper. (Grouper is code name for Nexus 7 similarly you can find name for your device easily on internet)
- That’s all but don’t forget to save file after editing. Then ZIP the file again and move it to your device using custom recovery.
