I have downloaded the correct files booted into recovery, when I try to flash the zip file it tells me there was an unknown error.... installation aborted.
Has anyone else experienced this, I have browsed and searched through the forums and found nothing related sorry If I may have missed it.
Thanks
update
FYI I have also tried installing from a sd card as well it gives me an error status 7 for both.
I have tried these to files E4GT_Modem_EG30_to_EK02.zip and EK02_Modem.zip
Thanks
I don't want to be that guy but I can't be the only one this is happening to.... anyone out there lol

ok...been all over the forums on this issue and not finding a real answer anywhere.
Used zedomax's kernel v2 and Odin to root my Epic4GT. Did that fine. But 3g stops working intermittently. Thought at first it was the kernel, but I've read it's not, but that it's Sprint. OK. Meanwhile, I can't get into backup mode with CWM. Not with Rom Manager or manually. I get this error message: whole-file signature not verified. Install aborted. I can't find a sensible answer to this anywhere! So I was gonna unroot and redo with zedomaxx's v3 root. However>>>NOW I can not get into download mode!!?? What do I do now??
Grab a jig off eBay or amazon. Plug it in and boom!

Really?? your reply makes no sense and is in no way explanatory. What is a "jig" and what do you propose I do with it. Thanks for nothing

Google is your friend OP. Maybe if you'd take the time to cruise the forums and learn about your device, you wouldn't have to start a thread and ask a question that has a half dozen threads dedicated to it already! How hard is it to Google "epic touch 4g jig"? Instead you had to write a nasty reply that assures no one will want to help you. Enjoy the freebie cus I'm done with you and your attitude!
@poppygt
If you read my post...I have gone thru all the forums trying to find a solution. But either the answers are just as obscure as yours or else they're so technical that I can't follow it. There has not been one clear answer yet. I spent 6 hours on Friday morning alone looking for the reason and solution. I can't go any further in flashing out of stock rom to anything else until I can do a backup.
I need help.
So are you saying you can't boot into recovery? Look for my thread in Q&A for a thread I started about not being able to boot into Clockwork. XDA member Playya linked me to a thread to flash Clockwork recovery via ODIN. After I did that I was able to get into recovery and make my backup. Hope that helps. I'll check back in a bit.

Pulled Root with Zedo's pulled.tar, the did the EG30 stock recovery. Then redid root with Zedomax's V3.tar. Only this time I pulled my SD card first. I don't know if that is what did it, but...it WORKED! I now have CWM working! Now my only problem is WiFi seems to be broken. Any ideas on that?

I believe that there was a wifi fix in Caulkins ROM thread but make sure you read before you flash it. I'll dig and see if I can find it.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Also when you say your wifi is broken what do you mean? If it's disconnecting from your network go to Settings, WIFI, tap on menu hen advanced and set wifi sleep policy to NEVER.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
The wifi is in a constant "scanning/connecting/disconnecting" loop. won't really connect at all. The Kernel version says "GINGERBREAD.EG30". but if i flashed Zedomax's v3.tar shouldn't have that there? Could that be the issue?
Thanks

Someone else posted the same error but I can't seem to find the thread. I'll post link if I find it!
Sent from my SGH-T999
so it looks like what happenned was, i was trying to install phandroid hybrid, in the directions it said wipe everything including system. So the recovery was looking at build.prop of my original rom and compaining it to the new rom to make sure it was the same, but was declining it. I fixed it by getting the newest touch recovery from CWM's site and flashing through Odin. I was using the toolkit.
Just got my gs3 today and decided to root using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682
Not really so tech-savy with this yet and after the whole root process of odin3 i reboot into recovery, wipe/cache/dalvik then flash the new miui 2.10.19 http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/2-10-19.18540/ one i hit flash it says installation failed blah blah blah (status 7) getprop. Yeah all that junk, so i searched up on the forums and the only solution i find is to update cwm and i have, to 6.0.1.4 and still same thing!! installation error, aborted. Can someone please help me out :crying: I'm sorry if im a noob, just trying to flash a rom here

How did you update to 6.0.1.4 when 6.0.1.2 is the latest version? And no, you don't need to re root. You don't need root to flash firmware.

Looking on the forums someone posted a link to download an updated 6.0.1.4 so I tried that since 6.0.1.2 wasnt working. There's gotta be something simple to fix that I dont know about, ive flashed and rooted my htc sensation and mytouch4g easy and never had installation failure when flashing. Can someone walk me through what exactly I need to be fully rooted and flash a rom!?
How could cwm not be working if its updated to latest version? I dont think im downloading the wrong rom and its not a bad link. Even tried dragging it onto my internal sd wirh debugging off. Btw I have the 32 gb s3 with does not have an external sd.
The way I fix that was I rerootes my phone into latest clockwork recovery. I didn't remove the root I just rerootee it. Look for cwr 6 I think.

From watching the video given for the toolkit, when in odin and have to open up pda then go to the toolkit files and then root all my files are in winRAR type and his are in tar archive type. Does that matter at all? And also when clicking on the pda then root you chose the file /boot-insecure-tmo-t99uvalem-cwm but when in odin and clicking this file on the little winrar icon to the left of the file name its the only one with a little like key lock, doesnt know if thats an issue or anything just something i noticed because when accessing the toolkit files on my c drive and going to the root folder, the key icon is no longer there.. Any ideas??
Reading about people flashing a kernal in recovery then flashing the rom and working but when you flash a rom isnt it flashing the kernal it comes with also? Or is this the problem
Well, I re ran the toolkit, re did the root and odin process same as i did the first time, downloaded rom straight from my phone flashed again still getting status 7 error/ installation aborted -______- ugh...

Look at my signature for the proper CWM. I don't know where you saw 6.0.1.4 for our device, but the main thread and the developers website show no sign of it. And download CM10 from get.cm, d2tmo. If you that doesn't work, you don't have a SGH-T999.
I can't believe I didn't see this before....what is the exact file name of the rom you are flashing?
I looked and did not see our phone listed in the op. Looks like the international one is there (codename m0?). But no d2tmo, d2att, etc.
Unless I just missed it there, you do not want to even try flashing that anymore! If I'm right you just got very lucky dude!

I thought you were trying to flash miui...
Glad you got it sorted out.
Just for the future though, never flash anything not built for the TMobile SGH-T999 (codename d2tmo). If you do flash an international GS3 rom it will brick your device. I think this woulda happened had the miui rom from the link in op actually flashed.

I was at first but then changed my mind, both werent working before hand though when i was getting the errors.
And im using hellfire and the rom is super smooth like butter. I have one problem though, its notifications. Whenever receiving texts i dont get a vibration or light pulse. Sometimes randomly i get a vibration. Anyone know how to fix?
Hi,
I am currently on CM9. I got it by Mobil Odining EL29 kernel and flashing the CM9 rom.
A few days ago I wanted to get ParanoidAndrpod so i Mobil Odined to EL29 and tried to flash the rom but I got a status 7 error in CWM. So I went through a big mess and got back to a stock GB rom then did the first steps to get back to CM9.
What I'm hoping is for someone to teach me how to get to ParanoidAndroid and if I dont like it, how to get back to CM9.
Also any comments regarding performance/stability/battery of ParanoidAndroid would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Edit: I just came across this link
It seems like the only things I did different than the steps listed was using EL29 kernel and not holding down power + vol up on the reboot, it automatically took me to the recovery.
Can someone explain why I got an error when trying to flash the ROM in CWM? It was a chunk of errors and at the end it said Satus 7 error or something like that.
Also, after reading some of the recent posts in the PA thread, it doesnt look like that stable of a rom yet, any suggestions/comments?

Rogue recovery also is known to cause this. Alsp don't use format all scripts if you use it.

I was also getting this when I was trying to change from CM9. What worked for me was using one-click Odin back to stock EL29 with my computer, then use mobile Odin EL29 direct boot CWM. Every time I tried to use mobile Odin back to stock first i would get that error. Also, use computer to DL the file then transfer it to your SD card.
Alright guys, thanks for the information! I'm not sure if I'm going to try out PA now since it seems like theres a few things wrong but I'll report back here if I do decide to try it out + the results.
Thanks!

First error in my experience is irrelevant to the ROM and doesn't affect flashing. I always get that error using TWRP 2.8.7.0 and have wondered what's the chase myself. I rarely use Odin so I can't really say, maybe the ROM needs to be specially formatted to be flashed through Odin?

Thanks for the reply. I guess we'll have to sit around to see if someone can shed some light. I thought maybe that was a reason why i couldnt flash roms successfully.

The vast majority of problems flashing with Odin can be traced to the connection between the phone and the pc, either the cable or one of the ports. If Odin recognizes the phone and you can start the flash but it fails, then it is very likely a connection problem.
