[Q] Flashing of any JB ROM fails

Hey wonderful people of XDA,
I picked up an S3 yesterday and rooted it no problem. I can install ICS roms fine, but CWM errors out when trying to flash a JB rom (I have included a pic to show exactly what I mean)
It is a Telus S3, but from what I've experienced before with rooting, AT&T should work as well. However, correct me if I am wrong.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Read that. It talks about error 7, although they said they fixed it. The first time I tried to flash AOKP that happened and I just rewiped everything and tried again and it worked.

Thank you! I'll check it out

I had same problem I just updates to 5.8.4.7 and it worked fine, make sure to fully wipe

for Xperia Play don't tl;dr.

First of all I'm sorry if ever I'm on the wrong section. This will be kinda of a long one, but please do hear me out. So, here it goes.
I've recently read a topic about dual-booting (arc&play supported) by DoomLord. So, upon reading it with the utmost interest its like I've been given a little hope with my play. Shortafter I accidentaly passed by one of DoomLord's thread about(donating for continued development for the play.) I missed the chance to donate because the posts were like back on the month of October. But, if I've read that post earlier? I would really have donated for the project. I can't pm DoomLord about this because he ignores generic pm's. So.. here I am, very desperate, so I've started this thread.
I know and I've read a lot of thread about this kernel thing, for now we can only flash kernel through fastboot. And yeah that's my problem I can't fastboot/flash or use flashtool anymore.(I know It's not just me, but there are some other play users out there too who got a problem like mine.) And now DoomLord is back? I know this is too much work but He's back with an xperia play he can do more awesome stuffs than before! So it hit me, will he do/try a kernel changer thing without using the fastboot method? So, basically he's my only hope.( I think for now.)
Oh yeah, why I can't fastboot/flash mode?
My phone was like outdated for 4 months now leaving my kernel to the old fxp 126-128 kernel I think. Because my play's micro-usb port was like half-dead now(didn't know what caused it, but it can charge on wall electricity but is not recognized by computers/laptop even with different usb ports/cable, reinstalled drivers, re-flash rom, no- nothing. Luckily I'm stuck on a kernel with CWM(i can still flash .zip files though.) I can still make my phone go in a flash mode(green light) and fastboot mode(blue light) It will be on those mode but computer wont recognize neither flashtool(in flashtool phone status disconnected.)

d710 icsFL24 stuck in bootloop after installing agat recovery

I rooted the stock OS with SPH-D710_FL24_CL1173404_REV2_Rooted_Nodata.exe and everything worked fine. Then I installed MobileODINLite-v3.85.apk and did the SXTP_Agat_FL24-v0.4.0.tar flash, and upon reboot, the OS loaded up fine, but after a minute the OS would lock up and the phone would then reboot on it's own, and it just keeps doing that no matter what. I've already tried going back into recovery and wiping cache and dalvik, no change. What should I do?
BTW, I'm a noob to smartphones, the reason I was doing all this is because I can't transfer any files to the internal USBStorage folder either by KiesAir or by physical connection to the pc, I just get a transfer failed error. I was trying to make a recovery so I could load a custom ROM (dirty unicorns) in hopes that this would fix the problem. Also I don't think taking this phone to Boost for a replacement is an option, since I bought this phone used from the previous owner. HELP! =(

Look guys, I'm not someone who is too lazy to use google. A week ago I didn't even know how to use this device. I've tried looking around but I'm gonna need someone to point me in the right direction, so seriously? 33 views and nobody can at least do that to help me?

What I would do is download the GB27 Rooted Odin here-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903252
And update to JB and maybe that might fix some of your problems. You can get into Download Mode by pulling the battery and replacing it and holding Power+Vol Down.

Good, at least you're up and running

Reset back to stock

I recently got a Epic 4G Touch from a friend who was upgrading. After messing around with it, I decided to try get CyanogenMod running on it. To make a long story short, I can no longer get the phone to boot, but I do have access to the AGAT custom recovery. I know I could use OdinExecution, but the phone is no longer recognized by Windows when plugging in USB - probably after flashing the kernel.
My question is what should I do from here? The only other way to get data onto the phone would be microSD, unless I can get USB working (I doubt). I was pretty foolish to go into this without more reading, and for that I apologize.

If you can get into recovery, I would try going here and flashing one of the zips found there.

If by chance you can get into download mode and if the links are not working you can always use this

Thanks for the reply,
I managed to get a custom ROM installed, so at least I'm able to use the phone. Now I need to figure out how to get USB working again. I took a snapshot of the device screen:

Is there perhaps a compatible kernel I can try?

Bricked HTC One M9 (managed to install TWRP 3.0)

Hi, forgive me if this is not the correct place for this but I am at a dead end with my struggles. I have an HTC One M9 that I managed to delete the OS & Recovery. I finally managed to get TWRP 3.0 back on it and when I try to install the OS (ViperOneM9_6.0.0) & Gapps it goes into a bootloader loop. All goes well throughout install process but I just cant get it to work. Can anyone PLEASE point me in the right direction, I've been w/o a phone for going on 3 months now.
P.S. If it helps at all it says developers edition and my carrier is MetroPCS (Tmobile)

I suspect that your firmware is out of date. Please post your OS version - that will help us know how to advise you.

Thank You. It doesn't have an OS Right now, could you be more specific about what you would need (format of the info possibly, or an example. I am fairly tech savy but have very little android internal experience)

Your OS version will come up regardless of whether you have a ROM installed. Check out the readme thread for how to use fastboot to pull the information.
