Any suggestions?
Are you using the right recovery?

I had to buy the new Rom manager on the playstore and flash my first nightly through there.
Otherwise you have to change some lines of code.
It's discussed in the T-Mobile cm9 nightly thread.

Make sure you downloaded the right version for your device; that's a buildprop error saying the device you're flashing to doesn't match the buildprop inside the file.

Yeah that's why I'm confused. I download directly from Rom Manager I didn't have a list of CM9 variants to choose from it just downloaded it
I'm wondering if my Rom Manager thinks I have a diffrent phone and how to change it
might have got this one cased
I didn't have the right verison of recovery. I have 5.8.1.3 and need to flash 5.8.4.7 I have the file but it a img file how to i get the img file from my comp to my phone. I tried just placing it in the phone. not sure i should update sd card in recovery or not please some one help !!!! I really want to get rid of my stock rom

Yeah i found a zip file and downloaded that its 5.8.4.5 but it seemed to work but now i can't back up my rom because my sd won't mount in recovery and a couple of things arn't workking like facebook contact sync, swype, might switch back to stock rom not sure yet
Well, I tried Cyanogen, AOPK and now I tried PARANOID 2.0.
None of them works, GAPPS works, but I get the Status 7 error while installing a ROM, i'm using the SGH-T999V and none of them works.
How are you trying to install them?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
You are rooted and trying to install with cwm or twrp recovery, right.
I ask because that error reminds me of stock recovery for some reason...

Status 7 errors can occur in ClockworkMod for everyone saying he's using a stock recovery.
Make sure your rooted and you should be good
Hey SGH-T999V,
I think we'd all love to help, but we need some more information. Can you tell us step by step exactly what you are doing? Once we have that, I think we will be able to help you past this.
I am fully rooted with clockworld recovery 5.0.4 or something, installing zip from sdcard then Status error 7 and yeah...
From what I've gathered, status 7 errors usually occur when the ROM is incompatible with the device e.g when flashing a CDMA rom on a GSM phone. My first advice would therefore be to confirm that the zip file is for the correct GS3 variant. You mentioned aokp and CM. Both these ROMS refer to the T999 as "d2tmo" and the zip files usually contain this in the name (e.g cm-9-20120909-NIGHTLY-d2tmo.zip). I would therefore check this first before anything else.
Assuming that's not the issue, some suggestions would be:
1. This is a longshot, but try toggling signature verification and see what happens. I doubt this is the issue but I have had update zips fail because this was accidentally toggled
2. Try updating CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766552
3. Try changing the recovery to TWRP and see if its the recovery. The easiest way I've found is to use the GooManager app. Install from the play store. Run the app. Hit the menu key and select Install OpenRecoveryScript. Reboot into the TWRP recovery and try flashing from there.
4. Try rerooting the device from scratch
I got this error when I rooted using the Sprint method. I had to reflash cwm using Rom manager before I could install Cyanogen

I had the same problem. I updated cwm and it fixes it. Your version is old....

Just updated CWM to 6.0.1.2 and tried to flash with TWRP... same Status 7 error with every single ****ing ROMs i'm trying to install.
Wiped everything many times before installing zip, nothing works... i'm giving up and downloading stock ROM until Samsung releases official JB 4.1.
You might have to go back to stock and root it again
Sent from my SGH-T999V using XDA Premium HD app
could try installing the roms with Odin
Could try downloading the roms using Rom manager pro and having it install them
You just got to get one to work and you'll be golden
Is it a setting problem in cwm?
Like toggling allow installation of unsigned packages

Just update cwm to a newer version. I promise that'll fix it.

Hi, there,
just looking for solution for the same problem and got this thread...
well, I was rooted and on cyanogen and everything worked fine.
had backups and stuff.
decided to return to stock just to have it updated and backed up and after that to return to cyanogen.
when in CWM, after stock, while re-root-ing, I did a fix permission which erased some of my system files in the backups, so all my backups on the phone became useless (lesson #1: always move your backups away from the phone).
decided to start from scratch, so using ODIN I flashed the proper stock ROM for T999V. Installed the CWM version 5. something, superuser etc.
made a backup this time and store it outside the phone
when I tried to flash the cyanogen 10.0 for m2tmo (which I've flashed before without trouble), I got the error message as our friend here.
I edited the updater-script file in order to erase the first lines and got it flashed...
the problem that I have right now is that I am stuck in the first screen when the cyanogen keeps going round and round and round.... and nothing happens
any suggestion from here?
http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/ClockworkMod_Recovery#Status_7
The status 7 error can be from a bad download, bad signature, and I have seen it from using an old version of clockwork. I would first make sure you are running the most current version of recovery. if that doesn't solve your problem try redownloading the Rom.
First off I want to say I have actually searched and read every thread imaginable.
Basically every time I try to flash a new rom (Tried 4 now) I get the error status 7.
This is not my first root and rom flash either, I've done 2 tablets and 5 phones all without issue.
I have tried TWRP, cwm 5.5, CWM 6.0.1.2 and i get the same error.
I have gone through the roms and deleted the first line, same error.
I have wiped data/reset.
I have tried ics and jb roms.
I have tried THREE different rooting methods.
Nothing but stock works... Please help!!!!
Edit: Forgot too add in that Rom Manager does not recognize what phone I am or that I already have CWM, as well same with goo manager and twrp.
I am Telus BTW
Thanks in advance!
Have you checked your build.prop? Error 7 is usually a build.prop error,iirc.
Try cwm touch

Have you read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884246
[Q] Flash Failed: Status 7
I installed cwm v6 and it allows me to avoid the error and installed cm10.
If you use the other recovery versions, it seems you have to change the build.prop to d2att from d2can. Shame as I like twrp.
One of those things that isn't really clear or written about for those of us that haven't gone through it. For those that know it's an obvious thing.
I won't forget it now.....

When I tried updating my cm10 to cm11, I got this error message:
Code:
set_metadata_recursive some changes failed
Error in : (the zip location)
(status 7)
This always happens when I try to update to cm11, and even when wiping my data and flashing it it gives the same error.
This is with cm11 snapshot m2 (can't post the URL cause under 10 posts, but its the official snapshot for ls970)
This has never happened before, and no matter what I do or what version of cm11 I choose, the flash fails.
It works just fine for cm10.2
Anyone have a fix?

Have you tried using the new KK recoveries? You can find them in the TWRP thread or in the Root Guide under working recoveries.
It might be a bad DL too.

Yeah if you were on the old recovery the updater-script for cm10.2 uses 'set_perm_recursive', but 4.4 based roms like cm11 use 'set_metadata_recursive' and the old recoveries have no idea what it means.
I just flashed from cm 10.2 to 11 doing a clean flash installing kk gaaps. I didn't change any network settings. Last night I had 4g. But somehow today all I get is 3g. My wife has an unrooted s3 and she has 4g so I know the service is available.
