Root [ROM] Codename Android

[blaze420916]

I use MD5 Checker to compare a copy/pasted md5 to the one it generates for a file, or compare the md5 generated for the .zip to the .zip.md5 file if it is supplied.

Sorry I'm sounding like a noob but where do I find what md5 came with the file and what it is supposed to be

If there is not a listed md5 "number" in the location you downloaded the rom from, I usually just download two copies of the rom zip and compare the md5s they generate. If one is wrong there is NO way the other would be wrong the same way. That is unless the source file is borked. Not likely, but possible. if you do get a matching md5 and it still wont flash and boot, it sounds like CM is the way to go for you my friend.

Thanks for all the help I'll try that I just figured the downloads from goo manager where good. But I have noticed some of the downloads wouldn't download because it said md5 invalid, and then would cancel.

Yeah, as great as goo can be, it is unreliable. The link at the beginning of this thread seems to be broken. maybe it is gonzo...

Good luck with CM!
