[Q] Newbie stuck flashing JB onto Rogers i747m - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

1st time posting and rooting/flashing, so please be gentle...
Followed this link and successfully rooted my Rogers GS3 with the GS3 Toolkit (chose the #9 "Canada Rogers SGH-i747M" option when selecting phone).
Made nandroid backup successfully.
Now trying to flash latest CM10 build (cm-10-20121111-NIGHTLY-d2att.zip) from here: http://get.cm/?device=d2att using these instructions but the install fails pretty much immediately with this error:
assert failed: getprop ("ro.product.device) == "d2att" ||getprop("ro.build.product") == "d2att" E:Error in /sdcard/cm-10-20121111-NIGHTLY-d2att.zip (status7)
would be very grateful to anyone who can tell me what I am doing wrong and how to actually get CM10 on my phone.
Thanks in advance!

I received that error using an older version of cwm. Updated to current and fixed the issue. Not sure if twrp supports cm10 based roms.

[Q] Froyo update fails

Background:
I have an unbranded desire, which I rooted using Unrevoked 3.
For some reason, my phone says it's up to date, though I'm still running android 2.1.
Problem:
I downloaded froyo from the net (tried two versions, one which is 86,491kb and one which is 92,262kb), I tried updating using the recovery option, but I always get the following error dialogue:
"Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: file_getprop("system/build.prop"
, "ro.build.fingerprint") == "sprint/htc_supersonic/supersonic/supersonic:2.1-update1/ERE27/195459:user/release-keys" ||
file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "sprint/htc_supersonic/supersonic/supersonic:2.2/FRF91/218634:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted."
If I enable the signature verification it fails with a signature verification failed error.
I'm going crazy already trying to update, would be glad to hear any suggestions,
Thanks,
Joel
You CAN'T upgrade on a rooted phone with the OTA update
Your choice is unroot and suffer the buggy OTA Froyo rom or rejoice and install a custom rom that has many fixes for Froyo already applied

what's the best and most stable ROM and how's the best way to go about installing it?Cheers BTW i've got a rooted Desire which is unbranded and unlocked original.Just got it rooted today.
See the other thread where I answered this question but you should try Neophyte 1.6 which is the best Froyo Rom imo or Pays Rock Solid if you want a great 2.1 rom.
I had exactly this problem here is my thread

Hope it helps
why so many of you suggest Neophyte 1.6?

Update to Jelly Bean aborts (Status 7)

I've been trying to update to Jelly Bean, but every time I run the update in Clockwork 5.5.0.2, it fails with:
Code:
assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "google/takju/maguro:4.0.4/IMM30D/262866:user/release-keys" || takju.maguro:4.1/JRN84D/392829:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
What am I doing wrong? I have a GSM version and I'm pretty sure its the takju version as I bought it on the first day they released in the Google Play store. If there is a way to verify this, could someone tell me or point to a place that tells me?
Which .zip are you trying to flash? If its the official OTA you must be on IMM30D.
Yeah, I'm trying to use the official OTA... how would I go to IMM30D if I'm currently on IMM76I? I didn't see an image for IMM30D or anything on their factory images page.
It's not listed because IMM30D is a non-retail image.

Same Problem with Yakju
I'm having the exact same problem with my GNEX GSM. I've got the YAKJU version, rooted, and i'm getting the same error message Status 7 Installation aborted. I tried to do the update via OTA when it came to my phone but it failed and since then I havent't been able to do it via OTA. I've even hard reset my phone and still no go via OTA or Manually. running CWM 5.5.0.2

Failed to upgrade to 4.1.1 from 4.0.4 ( Yakju / Maguro)

Hi Guys,
So I am trying to update my 4.0.4 ICS to 4.1.1 JB .
My Nexus is unlocked and rooted , I am using nexus tool kit 1.5v for everything .
I do flash zip w/Temp CWM ( which is the latest version with touch )
but no luck I do get the below error every time .
I have re flashed the radio and bootloader since I thought there is a problem with those but nothing changed please Help.
assert failed: getprop("ro.build.device") == "maguro" ¦¦ getprop("ro.build.device") == "maguro"
E:Error in /sdcard/yakju-JRO03C - FROM - IMM76I.f946a412 (2).zip
(Status 7 )
installation aborted.
Are you using the correct radio for yakju? I updated to 4.1.1 from 4.0.4 yakju last night. First I flashed the correct radio for yakju, which I hadn't realised that I hadn't already done so when I switched from yakjus to yakju back in April.
I am using : Baseband version I9250 XXLA2
I think this is the correct one for 4.0.4 .
Yes, that's the correct radio.

Use the regular CWM version instead of the touch one. CWM touch is buggy.
Yup it worked as you say , I used the non touch version.
Please keep in mind that NExus root tool kit 1.5 is coming with the touch version which caused the problem.
Thanks a lot again for the advice.
Cheers

[Q] Another question about bootloader updates

Sorry if this is answered elsewhere. I've been searching around to no avail.
I'm on an SPH-L710 running TWRP 2.6.0.0 and I'm trying to flash CM10.2 d2spr. When I try to flash the ROM zip, it reports:
Installing '/sdcard/cm-10.2.0-d2spr.zip'...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
assert failed: getprop("ro.bootloader" == L710
getprop("ro.bootloader") == "L710VPBMA6"
getprop("ro.bootloader") == "L710VPBMB1"
getprop("ro.bootloader") == "L710VPBMD4"
getprop("ro.bootloader") == "L710VPAMD7"
getprop("ro.bootloader") == "S960LWYAMD6"
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/cm-10.2.0-d2spr.zip'
Most of the similar posts I've read have suggested that I need to update the bootloader install CM10.2 and that will allow me to flash. Great! But here's where my real question starts:
I may have accidentally installed the OTA 4.3 rom with Knox. I ended up reflashing right away after I realized what I'd done, and the rom I have now (4.3 stock w/ root) doesn't have any knox apps, nothing about knox in device manager, and root/superuser is working just fine (Knox was disabled via superuser).
That said, I'm a bit scared to update my firmware as I've heard stories about Knox causing a brick if it is installed while you attempt to manually update the bootloader. Is there a way I can be sure updating my bootloader wont brick me? How do I tell if I have Knox installed? Is it sufficient that I have no Knox apps in my OS right now? If there is a way to do this safely, can someone point me to the latest files I should be flashing here, in terms of firmware?
Things in "About Device":
Model:SPH-L710
Version 4.3
Baseband: L710VPUCMK3
Kernel:3.0.31-g1[email protected] #1
Build: JSS15J.L710VPUCMK3

Hardware:L710.14
Thanks in advance to anyone who is willing and able to help me out here!
