Which Nexus One do you have ("AT&T", "T-Mobile" version)? Does the same update.zip work for all versions?

UK version?
Ok I'm on EPE54B so I'm guessing thats the problem! God I suck!

I'm on the U.S version and I'm getting the same error. This blows......

Any fix here??? I'm getting the same thing... tried it twice and the same results. Stock N1 on ATT.

Are you sure the filename is not update.zip.zip? At least in windows it adds the .zip to it, so by naming it update.zip it will inadvertently get named update.zip.zip.

Think you need to be on ERE27 for it to work, anyhow I just installed AMON recovery again and flashed the MoDaCo version of Froyo.

How to get Non-Root FroYo working on Nexus One?

Hey everyone,
My boss at work just got a nexus one and I tried updating him to FroYo using the same method that worked on my phone. When trying to run it I get a message that states....
E: Cant open / cache/recovery/command
-- Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: file)getprop("/system/build.prop" , "ro.build.fingerprint') == "google/passions/passion/mahimahiL2,1-update1/ERE27/24178:user/release-keys" ||
E: Error in /sdcard/update.zip

Anyone know what would cause this??

Does the phone have 2.1 update 1 installed already. Out of the box the N1 ships with 2.1.
Update to 2.1 update 1, then update to Froyo and it should work.

By chance do you have a link to 2.1.1 update?
Sorry just got the boss on my ass right now ....lol

I think this is what you're looking for. Ya might want to do a google search on the filename and just make sure though.

Problem installing Froyo

I have an unrooted, stock Nexus phone on T-Mobile.
I downloaded the update from this website and followed the directions to install the update.
It immediately says
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
And then keeps stopping at:
verifying current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
I've tried a couple different sources for the update and every one stops there.
Any ideas?

What update are you running and from what version.
The ones from google (ERE -> FRF, FRF50 -> FRF72) and for non-rooted phones, the rest are for root users.

ERE27. Does that sound right?

you have to get the file for ERE50 before you can go to ERE72

Do you have a download link for it? I've been searching but haven't found it.

it should be found in the stickies in the general forum. If you don't find it there you can find a mirror link on www.androidguys.com

And sorry ere is older, you want frf50 then 72

so, i'm still getting these errors::
It immediately says
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
And then keeps stopping at:
verifying current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check
and that's from trying to recover with
signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24 (renamed update) my windows knows it's a zip already.

OK, now I have reformatted the SD card just to make sure that the update file is alright.
I'm pretty sure the problem lies in the E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
I might be wrong but if anyone knows what the deal is I would really appreciate some input.
Thanks.

Almost same problem
Sorry for hijacking your tread djphooka but seeing we have almost same issues here.
I try to do the update with signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24.zip and have almost a similar problem.. it do say E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command when i get in the recovery menu
and when i run the apply sdcard:update.zip it opens the package then i get E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Any help on this issue?
some info on my nexus one:
Kernel version: 2.6.29-01117-g4bc62c
Build number: EPF21B
Any ideas would be most welcome
Found some info at another site that the bulletinboard wount show but search for EPF21B and Online Kitchen and you will find it
Build number shows it to be the UK shipping ROM

The clue is in the name.
signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24.zip
You have EPF21B, it's a non-starter for you.

I would still really appreciate any ideas.
Should I wipe or factory restore and then try updating?
Ugh, this sucks. haha

Just be patient and wait another 24 hours, the official one is coming out OTA within the next few hours, you can then download it and apply

OTA
Froyo OTA

Where would I find out when the OTA version is available for my Nexus? I've been reading about it coming out today for some handsets but don't see anything about Nexus.
Thanks for the help guys!

Are you using a deodexed ROM? If so, that update will not work for you.
