The root of your sdcard means on your sdcard but not in a folder on your sdcard.

You got the first error because you used caps for Flash when it should be flash like your second try.

Are you sure you have the vrecovery.img on your sdcard and not in a folder on it? Use a file manager, and check your sdcard to see that vrecovery.img is in fact there.

Try this. Go to settings-manage applications, click on all apps, scroll down to market, click on it, then click clear data. Exit back out, and start the market. It should reset all your market data. Don't know for sure if this will work, but its worth a shot. Remember, you installed a nandroid backup from another phone. Everything may not work right. This is the second thread I've seen with this issue since this method was posted this morning. You may want to go to the thread you got this from and ask the guy who posted it.

iv had aosp on my phone for few days i like it but i have heard alot about rebornrom iv done every thing i did with aosp as far as factory reset wipe cache partition
then it says installing update...
amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
amend scripting was deprecated by google in android 1.5.
it was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the clockworkmod 3.0 gingerbread based recover. please switch to edify scripting (updater0script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages
installation aborted.
not sure what it is telling me to do can any one help
thanks
