Instruction #10 is wrong:
Type: echo ‘–update_package=CACHE:/recovery/update.zip’ > command
should in reality be
Type: echo ‘–update_package=CACHE:/recovery/update.zip’ > command
note the double dash instead of the long dash

I had the same issue. I looked at the log file in /cache/recovery and it would tell me what the installer was puking on. For me, it was a few apps that I had renamed to *.ap_ and then some that had been “frozen”. So remember that installer checks against what it expects to find, namely a default installation of the OS.

Too funny. I was reading this and about to do it when I checked updates and mine had pushed the update auto.

I was able to get it working using commands directly from koush. HEY KELLEX, that line you entered IS INCORRECT.

echo ‘–update_package=CACHE:/recovery/update.zip’ > command

Is this the same update that got pushed out today. I got a message for a system update, and it is currently showing 3.0.1

While that’s not the most efficient way to do it, it would work.

Why go out of your way to be a dick about it?

use this for the line. 2 dashes in front of update_package. Once I changed that it installed onto my xoom.

echo ‘–update_package=CACHE:/recovery/update.zip’ > command

I don’t know about you, but I don’t rely on sales to tell me whether or not I like my product. Unlike iTrolls, I don’t need to be told what I like.

Did everything correct, and still get the Android with the yellow exclamation point logo. Copied everything exactly, and it seems to work, but no go. Ideas?
