You simply downloaded the wrong file, it's for Zuk Z2, not for moto g4 plus aka athene.
Please be aware what rom files for which devices you download.

So i downloaded the rom again. Transfered it properly. Same error.(error 7)
So just to be sure. Downloaded 5 different Roms.
Same error. My friend suggested me to flash through Adb sideload. I think it flashes but not properly since my device got stucked on bootloop for around 40 minutes before i switched it off for 2 different ROMs. Ene of the day I am back to stage 1. My friend told me to instal TWRP again. But without any OS how can i do it. Please help;_;

And your absolut sure these 5 rom files are OK and not broken? You download the correct device versions?
Which roms you have(file names)?
What twrp version(link /file name)?
You can flash twrp with twrp itself(install - > image) or with fastboot like the first time.

I hope you did not pause the download in between or it did not failed and you started from the failed point (It can be done in Firefox)
Check the md5 of the zip file.
Also try a different TWRP. What TWRP are you using right now??.......just tell what source you downloaded it from

Wrong TWRP my friend (its a 32 bit TWRP and you need 64 bit TWRP)........strange I thought it was error 255 when we tried to install using wrong TWRP.
Download TWRP by Lyuu and backup EFS first and then flash the ROM.

Error executing updater binary in zip (TWRP)

I'm getting this error when trying to flash lollipop roms. I can flash Kitkat roms fine as I'm currently running xdabbeb VS982.5 1.0.0 (G3 rom), but it won't let me flash any lollipop rom. I installed twrp via the autorec program which installs 2.7.0.0 then I updated twrp within twrp with the flashable zip.
Please help
Thank you
Anyone?
Seriously no one knows? What is everyone else using that is flashing the latest 5.0.2 roms?
What am I getting this error?
Please help
Possible Fix
I've also had this problem. The only way I can seem to fix it is to also download the .md5 along with the rom itself. Just make sure its in the same folder as the rom. Everytime I have that problem with TWRP this seems to fix it. Let me know if it works for you!
Edit: Also I forgot to mention, if one isn't available to download I can help with that.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try. If there is no. Md5 what do I do then?
All you need to do if it comes to that is download an md5 checker on your computer. Just curious, what rom are you trying to flash?
I tried resurrection remix and liquid lollipop roms. I had no issues with the initial 5.0 lollipop roms so I'm not sure what changed with 5.0.2.
So the md5 checker generates the .Md5 then you just put that on the SD card with the rom?
Resurrection remix should have an md5 on the download page right below the rom itself.

Can you point me to the program to use on my computer? Do I just load the .zip file in the program to generate the .md5sum file then put both the zip and the .md5sum file on the sdcard before flashing?
Thanks

Nope, I downloaded the md5 file along with the zip and I'm still getting the same "error executing updater binary in zip".
Any other suggestion? How is no one else having this same issue? I'm using the latest version of TWRP 2.8.3.1 probably like most people. I don't understand.

Try to reflash the TWRP.. or maybe is something wrong with the zip file
Use the TWRP compiled by blastagator
Nope, still getting same error with latest twrp.
Finally got it working. I downgraded TWRP to 2.7.0.0 and the lollipop roms are flashing fine now.
Thanks everyone for your help.

Hi, I am having the same problem. Actually my LG G2 was stuck in boot loop with secure boot error. I used SRK tool to flash the partition files as well as TWRP recovery 2.8.6.1. I have wiped everything and there is no OS installed. I am stuck in TWRP recovery screen [cannot downgrade /upgrade]. I am using and OTG cable to flash the cm-11 custom ROM but it is giving me the same error. Can anyone help ?? It has been 10 days I am trying and my phone is dying please help...
Thanks in advance...

@[email protected] i think kk aosp room need jb bootleader
Hello everyone,
I am running a D802 on stock Lollipop and installed TWRP 2.8.6.0 via AutoRec. Now I booted into recovery, wiped System and Cache and got the Error message when installing CrDroid (Marshmallow 6.0.1). Now I tried installing TWRP 3.0.2.0, which succeeded and then downloaded the twrp 2.7.0.0 zip to try that as the ROM still wouldnt install. But it wont install the older TWRP. So I am asking for help to either
1) Install TWRP 2.7.0.0
or
2) Delete the getprop lines from updater-script (after I removed them I get an error 6 so i probably removed too much?)
Thank you in advance
(Guide for Error 7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522762)
EDIT: Someone said installing another Kernel might allow installation of the ROMs. Which Kernel could work for my phone?
EDIT 2: When flashing TWRP 2.7.0.0 it says "assert failed: run_program("/tmp/loki.sh")==0". So what exactly am I missing on my phone? Is Loki the MM Bootloader?
EDIT 3: Could it be that the build.prop was deleted when I wiped system? Would be weird if that was the cause, but I simply dont know..
Edit: Booted in Downloa Mode and flashed v30D KDZ with the 2014 LG Flashtool. Works with Stock ROM for now

ZE500KL (Z00ED) Soft-bricked... (bootlooping on Asus logo, doesnt even show ROM logo)

Hello...
So, me, a dumbass, decided to try to encrypt the phone while it was rooted... Everything went wrong, and on the first reboot it started rebooting non-stop(on the Asus logo)... I left it for some time but nothing changed.
I tried restoring a backup(system, data and boot), stays the same, tried restoring stock boot and reflashing the rom(ResurrectionRemix) but nothing changed. How do I solve this?
(Note that I have a backup of all stock ROM partitons, except the recovery)

Make sure you have your stock recovery installed too, and restore your rom

I solved by flashing stock ROM with Asus Flash Tool:
ASUS Drivers: https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-2-Laser-ZE500KL/HelpDesk_Download/ - Select Android OS, then go to "USB" and download the drivers
Website (tutorial on how to use it is linked there): http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2017/03/download-asus-flashtool-10045-for-zenfone-3.html
RAW firmware files: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...0a-z00d-z00x-raw-fw-collection-t3448966/page3
In case you don't want to check both RAW files, I posted here the versions of each firmware:
First link: WW_ZE500KL_V12.8.5.222_M3.6.42_Phone-user (Lollipop)
Second link: WW_ZE500KL_13.10.10.44_M3.6.51_Phone-user (Marshmallow)
If you get confused when you need to select the RAW file, go to the extracted folder and there will be it. (I got confused because the folder by itself was named .raw lol)... Also, don't delete any file, as you probably will need them one time later

This was a long time ago now and I've since changed device. However, I seem to remember having to switch back to the original Chinese ROM and starting again. It allowed me to install the correct version of TWRP I think. But if you do go back, make sure you don't lock your device again like I did. I think there's a checkbox on the program that you have to use to put the Chinese ROM back on and you need to make sure it's ticked. Sorry if I'm not of much help but it was so long ago now that it's hard for me to remember.

These were the notes that I left myself:
After boot, go into Fastboot and flash recovery 3.2.3-1217 twrp
Using this, wipe everything apart from bottom box on advanced wipe. Do twice, reboot once in the middle.
Flash EU rom. Do the wipe it promts after install and boot up.
Then use fastboot to flash recovery TWRP-EU, and flash magisk (canary build) to keep twrp installed.
I'm not sure what version this TWRP-EU is, so I've just uploaded it to Google Drive for you here.
Hope this helps.

H918 Stuck on secure startup "decryption unsuccessful" on boot

after doing this https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/step-step-guide-lg-v20-h918-unlocking-t3808258
and finally installing a stock based rom, which is Alpha Omega Rom. I get stuck at secure startup and telling that decryption unsuccessful. I tried it with other stock based rom like a prerooted one but the result are still the same. I am never new to this problem and usually this get solved by going to twrp and wiping data(the one you have to type yes) but it did not solve this problem. Really need help badly.

it seems youre trying to flash a new twrp image that is higher than the allowed 3.2.3-4 in the root process,go to fastboot mode reflash twrp image 3.2.3-4 or an older one.If that's not the issue please provide more information

Where does it exactly say that I cannot flash anything higher than 3.2.3-4. All it says is to download the latest twrp from https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3720239
Do you have a link to 3.2.3-4? It seems like 3.2.3-5 is the lowest twrp I could find in Phoenix591's android filehost https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=235271
edit: while waiting for responses, I went ahead and installed unofficial LOS15 then I was able to boot without any problem. It seem like this will only happen with stock/stock based roms.

You should flash latest after installing this one by installing recovery img in TWRP i am telling you cause i have tried 3.2.3-5+ with the dirty santa process for my phone and thats the message i was getting unless downgrading to 3.2.3-4
Also decryption is unsuccessful comes as a result of not formatting data on twrp after the first install of twrp but you said that you did format data so i thought you were trying to flash newer twrp via the root process of the H918

you need to format data first time

after doing this https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/step-step-guide-lg-v20-h918-unlocking-t3808258
and finally installing a stock based rom, which is Alpha Omega Rom. I get stuck at secure startup and telling that decryption unsuccessful. I tried it with other stock based rom like a prerooted one but the result are still the same. I am never new to this problem and usually this get solved by going to twrp and wiping data(the one you have to type yes) but it did not solve this problem. Really need help badly.

but now it have been fixed.
Flash TWRP 3.2.3 via fastboot
Boot into TWRP

I think Its TWRP 3.3 bug or something that not decrypt perfectly..

I did format data so many times already that it nuked my twrp(just stopped booting into it all of a sudden, still unsure if that caused it though)

Yes me too, and it almost make me crazy back in the days ?
the solution (at least for now) is downgrade TWRP it into v3.2.3-4. flash it via adb fastboot command, format data, then reboot. But sorry i dont have TWRP for H918, becoz im using F800L.. and since your TWRP has been nuked, youll have to reflash TWRP again yes? ?
Or, if youbdont want to downgrade TWRP, you can use AOSP based rom such as LOS15.1.. i already tried that rom and it dont have problem with encrypt/decrypt thing like stock based rom.

Thank you so much, no wonder i wasn't able to find v3.2.3-4 because it's labeled as the release date. What does the sim unlock do? I mean, I can receive messages and stuff but just not get any once in awhile. Will this actually solve that?

Yes i knew that. My TWRP 3.2.3-4 IMG file is labeled with same date like that.
About sim unlock, Actually I dont know for sure because in f800l we dont seeing any sim problem at all.. but in my opinion just download it, in case you seeing problem with locked sim after flashing, it will be very useful..
anyway, i found a thread that discussing about h918 sim unlock thing

Thanks, I will try going back to stock roms and will report back to you.
And I forgot to mention that I already got twrp fixed after it got nuked. Sadly, I don't think fastboot flashing works on h918 so I had to do lafsploit method to flash twrp again.

Ok then and happy flashing m8 ?
noddledizzy said:
Where does it exactly say that I cannot flash anything higher than 3.2.3-4. All it says is to download the latest twrp from https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3720239
Do you have a link to 3.2.3-4? It seems like 3.2.3-5 is the lowest twrp I could find in Phoenix591's android filehost https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=235271
edit: while waiting for responses, I went ahead and installed unofficial LOS15 then I was able to boot without any problem. It seem like this will only happen with stock/stock based roms.

Where? Right in the portion where it says Known Issues of the first link.
Downgrading TWRP to 3.2.3-4 will fix it. I had the same issue.
Thanks for the notes. Unfortunately this did not work for me. I ended up in this position after updating Magisk to 20.2, or trying to. My H918 went to being stuck in the fastboot mode. I was able to get to TWRP, and reinstalled H91820h.zip, but then faced with "Decryption unsuccessful" I downgraded TWRP to twrp-3.2.3-0, and deleted everything except the external microsd card, reinstalled H91820h.zip, but still stuck at the "Decryption unsuccessful". Are there other things I should try?
Thanks,
Rob

From TWRP thread:
Changed one last thing to try to fix stock Oreo decryption.
There were an upstream TWRP change that should fix the issue where formatting was still leaving /data encrypted as well (this was actually in the last build, but I didn't notice it then)

If you still have your non-Encryption-supporting TWRP as download mode, wipe data from there. For some reason which was documented in the TWRP thread, most versions of V20 TWRP doesn't remove the encryption flag even on a full wipe. I've gone through the pain several times, but here's roughly what I went through about a month ago. It's possible that using the latest TWRP may allow you to skip straight to step 8. As of this latest wipe, I'm finally at a point again where my phone works properly and TWRP can still see my data.
Basic process to hopefully have a working ongoing phone and TWRP:
1. Reboot to download-mode TWRP
2. Wipe dalvik/cache/data from the older download-mode TWRP
3. Factory reset with YES, still in older download-mode TWRP
4. Reboot to system; it should give you the new-system-setup past the Decryption unsuccessful screen on your wiped device
5. Setup without a Google account or fingerprint
6. Reboot back to recovery, not download TWRP; use download mode to get there if you need to
7. Flash the latest TWRP version from the thread (no older than October 25, 2019)
8. Reboot back to recovery
9. Wipe dalvik/cache/data
10. Reboot back to system
11. Setup as you like
12. Reboot back to recovery and make sure you can see your storage
If it gets a decryption error on latest TWRP at step 12 and you can't see data while in Recovery, try skipping adding a fingerprint during setup (run through steps 8-12, no fingerprint on 11) and see if that fixes it.

My solution turned out to be formatting /data. Wiping it was apparently not really wiping it clean. Formatting it got me back to a working phone, though I had to re-install everything.
Thanks everyone for the help!

Need to find ANY working/available ROM for my p8 lite (2015)

Hello.
I did a mistake and totally wiped my phone with only a wrong ROM on my SD-Card (It was for the p8 2017 not foy my 2015).
So now I do not have any ROM installed but need to get the device working again. The problem is that, because of the age of the device, all links to ROMs are dead. The only thing I found is the stock-ROM but only in update.app format, which is used in the dload-folder. But the phone does not recognize it when booting.
Bootloader is unlocked, TWRP is installed!
Would be glad for every hint!
I managed to get a stock recovery back working, but flashing the stock roms (android5 or android6) via update.app file always stops installing at 90%. I tried several times and waited for hours. It never coninued!
Any idea what could go wrong?
The modded Rom in this thread works pretty well and was available on 11-18-19.

You can install it either from sdcard or ADB Sideload
