As the name itself signifies that the ROM RUU used is not the correct one which was supposed to be used, or the flash ROM size was not enough for the image file size.

Solution: Download the proper ROM RUU and retry flashing.

 

ERROR[300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL

The update tool used is not compatible, or the RUU used is not supporting the device.

Solution: Try downloading the RUU update tool from some of the genuine updating sites.
