[Q] Install Aborted (Status 7) HTC Evo - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have looked at soooo many forums and still cannot find the answer. And just to start off, i am a complete noob, so please answer me like im legit stupid.
Everytime i try to flash a ROM it doesnt work and all that pops up is "Install Aborted (Status 7)." I have already tried clearing all cache and data before flashing, and also i am already updated to the latest Clock Work. (5.XX.XX) I really need to fix this by Monday, so please help if you can.
Ty in advance

Make sure you have a non corrupt download, and you may need to turn off signature verification. The option is there right before you flash a rom.

Try using Amon Ra. There's a thread on how to install it in the Development section.

Amon Ra didnt even work, and the download isnt corrupted because ive tried different versions of the same ROM, and yet it still doesnt work. Any other ideas?

What rom?

If you want a cool, stable ROM that isn't sense, yet has a ton of mods and options, try MIUI

It works!!! lol i guess the end result was just me being an idiot. lol

[Q] Anyone have a copy of UltimateDroid 3.3.0 ROM

Anyone have a copy of UltimateDroid 3.3.0 ROM or a link?
I keep reading great things about the ROM but cant find a copy.
Is anyone using it and what is it like?
Yeah I have one on my sd card still =). I dunno how to upload it to anything though but it was speedy. I liked it, just the lockscreen has that ultimate droid on it. I may even go back to it lol. If someone can tell me how to upload it I will.

Trust me...it is that good. Its stable and VERY speedy. I never had a sinlge issue with it. If it used the newer kernels id be on it still. It had this thing where you could download different boot animations fonts and everything, the servers have went down and the rom has become like the villainrom. I haven't even tried villainrom. I think the dev was in a flood or major thing happened and he has been rebuilding his life. Hopefully he comes back, I found out about it late.

Lol this keeps getting asked. Its a rom that's different. I'm not a developer so I truly can't tell you. I think its based off cm7. Its very speedy and what made it great was the ability to change boot animations, fonts, themes and all kinds of stuff on the fly. They were built in I should say. It was always stable for me and if it ran the new kernel id be on it for sure. You can't download that stuff anymore because his servers are down. He was in a natural disaster so I think thays why. I hope that helped. If not I know you can google the rom and see reviews and stuff.

so this works for G2 right? Just checking cuz I tried to install a few others and they apparently weren't for G2

Think I heard they abandoned it. Hasn't been updated in months.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Definitely abandoned. I'm calling bull$hit on the whole natural disaster thing. The whole project went under a lot of heat and then it suddenly all stopped. I don't see it coming back, but I'd love to try it if it did. I don't want to use an outdated ROM though, because there is no support or future hope for it.
Great rom thank you

How to?

I searched around a bit and couldn't find much about rooting the evo? I'm on samsung epic and its a lot different from what I see. I do know that it had gotten the bootloader locked right? Well my sisters phone is on 4.54.651.1 I don't know if I can root it?

you can flash ANY rom made for the htc evo4g no restrictions . Some themes only work with specific roms. If your looking for a good rom that has ALOT of themes and mods check out TommyTomatoes classic rom and then MikG

You flash themes that are made for the exact rom you have installed. For example, flash a MikG theme for a MikG rom. Also make sure that the theme is for rom version you have installed. ROM could be updated and an older theme may not work for that version.

Thanks for the reply Custodian, I did wipe the phone fully, I was however using the ultimate iPhone theme. I just have not found anyone on xda that is having this issue. Could it be the theme? I am just reluctant to flash this again, but I really like the Miui set up. Do you think I should try an older version? Thanks again.
i have the same problem,didi u use miui7.13?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
same here.. i flashed calks format all in el26cwm, miui 7/13 and chris41g cwm5 safe aosp kernel, and couldnt get past lockscreen due to phone fc.. tried going back into recovery and flashed format all again (worked a charm thanks to chris41g!) flashed miui again this time not kernel and same exact thing except this time no cwm so had to pc odin a oc to get phone back.. i thought it was just me.. only thing i could think of was i dled it on my phone while roaming and it took a while.. maybe a bad download?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
There is a solution in the rom's thread in development. It worked for me. I'd give you the steps but i can't remember exactly, but it involves flashing el26.cwm, miui 2.6.8, el29.cwm direct boot, then 2.7.13 with wipes in between. It should be on the second page.

It's a bug in this version, for some reason. I don't know if it is happening too everyone though, maybe just those who are coming from a different room like i did? It took me less than ten minutes including downloading all four files on my pc.

I used latest miui 13. I followed the instructions exactly but I didn't try an older version 1st. Maybe that's the problem too much work, back on caulks 3.0 with the candy theme and it works great.
