[Q] Trying To Root (Installation Aborted) Error

Im Am Trying To Root My Samsung Galaxy Ace gts5830 And Everytime i try to install the zip file provided by the forum I Keep Getting Error
E:Error In /tmp/sideload/package.zip Installation Aborted .............PLZ Help

What firmware are you running? If its ktq there's a previous step (cuz that firmwares system is full). There's a thread on that.
Other than that, which zip are you trying to flash (maybe link to post)?
How are you trying to flash it?

It Is Android Version 2.3.4......Baseband s5830dtlki4..........kernel 2.6.35.7-perf-cl568978 [email protected] #1.
Build Gingerbread.dtlki4
I Went into Recovery mode And Tried root.zip and update.zip wich i cant remember exact thread but both were of the forum
And Ive Read Lots And Cant figure it out

There's one called AceGingerRoot.zip, same stuff, go ro recovery (stock recovery, not cwm recovery) install zip from sd card. Then just update the superuser app from the market and its binary:

Good luk

Thank U So Much It Worked ......

I am having the same problem, root.zip gives 'installation aborted'. I went to the link you gave for AceGingerRoot.zip and google chrome said 'malicious code and has blocked it'.

Which recovery mode are you using to install root- Stock or CWM?

thanks for your response but I've solved it now by doing the full /root/internal memory/ flash thing, I now have jellybean running on my SGA and lots more internal memory.

Gear custom rom installation issue

Dear all,
First of all, thank you very much for the efforts made on this forum and thanks f0mey for the fine work and I hope I am not breaking any rules by posting this issue
I have come across an issue while trying to install the custom ROM null_, I have tried two different ones (16 & 17)
the issue is that after rooting and installing the custom null_03_TWRP2.7.tar.md5 file using ODIN, i have uploaded the rom file ("null_ 16.zip" / "null_ 17.zip") using mobilego in the download mode in /sdcard and tried to go to the recovery, it doesnt boot up witht he recovery but it shows: "install system update" and it wipes the device.
I have checked the rooting, supersu requests authorisation to give root access, tried to select the rom in ROM toolbox but can't get it to work, it keeps wiping the device
Am I doing something wrong?
googling around shows that many users are having the same issue, somes of them found that the file was corrupt in the /sdcard/ but mine I uploaded it many times and always same result
can you please help?
Thank you

Hello and happy new year!
I am very sorry as I forgot to mention that I have deleted the recovery-from-boot.p file from the system folder as well but still wiping the device
to be sure, I have rooted the device, went to the download mode, executed ODIN, after the reboot, deleted the recovery from boot file and copied the rom and rebooted to the recovery mode but then it wipes the device
done something wrong?
thank you for your help, much appreciated!

You need to delete the recovery-from-boot.p PRIOR to booting in this OS..
Otherwise it will just reflash the stock recovery..
Easiest way to flash is untick the auto reboot option in ODIN, flash the recovery, reboot DIRECTLY into recovery either with adb commands or by using the hardware key.

Stuck on Philz boot

It's been months since I had the rom 4.2.1 official from samsung with root access. The phone is somehow a lot slower than earlier and I wanted a fresh rom install. I tried to download the latest cyanogen through CWM but it gave me error. I wanted to flash the omni 4.4 kitkat through Philz but it was always giving me an error no file_contexts set_metadata_recursive and aborting installation.
I then had the insane idea of clicking 'factory reset - wipe data' I thought it would bring back to the last rom flashed....but it didn't. Now whatever I do, I go into the philz menu (i have all my data backed up I only worry about putting a fully working and FAST rom, the phone was getting stuck every few seconds).
I can access to philz and I can access to odin. What is your advice? What could I flash next? I also read that kitkat is not running well on the gt n7000....anything recommended for my situation?
******SOLVED
I flashed from Philz 5 with CWM 6.0.3.2 a cyanogen 10.1.3 from the microsd and it worked. I wrote on the microsd from a microsd reader.

odin detects the device on com port, kies detects the phone and I installed the usb drivers. BUT kies stays stuck on 'connecting...'
The only possibilities I have are philz and odin. Device is detected but cannot connect looks like. So I cannot flash anything apparently.

¿Did you try Odin with phone in download mode? Vol- + home + power
Enviado desde mi GT-N7000 usando Tapatalk 4

yes phone is in odin download mode. i connect the phone, kies stuck on 'connecting'. odin on windows find the com port but cannot connect.
If I try to flash .zip files from microsd through philz 5 interface, i get the "set metadata recursive some changes failed" error....followed by 'installation aborted' press any key.
This means I am stuck because I cannot flash stuff with odin from windows, and I cannot install zips on the phone from the phone.

Use a separate Samsung USB driver package (please search for it yourself) , do not install it with Kies.

i think something has changed just now. i'll wait till i finish downloading the stock rom to flash with odin and then see what happens.
But actually main question is: why can't i flash a rom with philz? I have put two roms on the microsd (one omnirom and one cyanogen official stable) and I keep getting the installation aborted message

Did you ever consider (in the nearly 5 years of XDA membership) that it might be a good idea to read the installation instructions for the rom you want to install or to search for an error happening to you. If you didn't consider this until now: the time has come to start.
And if you do not like to accept the help members offer it is essential to do these two activities youself.

I read instructions of course....my problem was not related to instructions (although i think my recovery mod was not compatible with the omni rom i was trying to install) and that kies thing was an anomaly. I had to wait till the stock rom finished downloading to reboot (windows asked to reboot after some time....maybe related to the installation of usb drivers but i am not sure).
Finally through Philz I was able to install a cyanogen 10.1.3 from the microsd....why I got the error with those other roms is only part of my ignorance, as I said maybe the recovery i have was not compatible (???)
thanks anyway, if I need odin to recover root access or something I'll follow your instructions in case it still doesn't recognize the connected device.

Of course your problems are related to instructions and not reading/understanding. Because these problems occured many times and were solved and got part of tutorials, q&a etc.

i searched the forum, found a couple thread entitled exactly like mine. I think one of them even had the tag 'solved' in the title. Problem is, who solved the problem never included the solution, so what is the point....And I don't get this aggression, obviously if I have a problem I try everything to fix it. I would read instructions and I also googled a lot to understand why i was getting that error from the recovery zip installation....it is not like I don't try, why wouldn't I want to solve my own problems? Also people were receiving that same error with compatible recovery / roms images....and got around the problem with many tries but I did not find any particular solution written anywhere.

Look for raw kernel and flash the appropriate version, then reboot into recovery to install Slim

Hi I am having a similar problem and I apologise as I dont understand what 'raw kernel' you are refering to. I check my phone and it says "PDA: N7000XXLT5". I think this is what you mean?
So I think I probably I flashed the wrong Philz Touch CWM onto my XXLT5. According to the Philz TOuch post, XXLT5 is suppose to use version 5.03.0 but I didnt read this info and installed 5.15.0.
Please advise. thank you!

Read up more on the sticky threads to get a better view of what you're getting into.
1. what are kernels/recoveries and how to install them
2. what problems are there to take note of that you might encounter and how to resolve
3. always do a backup of everything they ask you to
4. prepare a stock rom to fall back on to flash just in case
