So, I recently rooted my i747 and used Odin to load CWM v5.5.04 on my phone. I backed everything up, and proceeded to get into recovery to flash a new ROM, so I wiped as needed and I cannot install a ROM.
Particularly, this ROM: http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-i747-jelly-bean-paranoidkangdroid-rom-143982/
This comes up whenever I try:
"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2att" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2att"
E:Error in /sdcard/PAC Man/ PK-1.40-d2att.zip

It also happens when I try installing PAC Man.

First of all, take a deep breath. It can get pretty frustrating and that's when you make mistakes that lead into a brick.
You might wanna look into a newer CWM or TWRP (GooManage in the market).
Have you tried flashing another ROM? Also, did you grab the version for the i747?

Here is the issue. This version is outdated. CWM is on 6 point something now. Load the latest version and you should be able to flash the ROM of your choice. :highfive:
Gee, thanks guys!! It's comforting to a little nooblet such as myself to have help from members.
How can I load another recovery, though? I've already wiped everything

Get in download mode and flash stock. From there, get GooManager from the market, open it, hit menu and install the recovery. Finally, you can get in recovery and flash the ROM + Gapps you want.

Starting from THIRD step, you can either use adb or grab a terminal emulator from the play store.

If you want to stick with cwm, flash stock s3 firmware and root again. Boot up, download rom manager and "update recovery". That will install version 6.0.2.3

One thing though, uninstall ROM Manager afterwards and don't use it for anything else than installing the custom recovery if you decide to go with CWM instead of TWRP.
I was planning on using Goo Manager after restoring my only nandroid backup, but it's corrupt.... Go Figure. :crying:
Anyway, I'm a bit confused on what is trying to be meant by flashing stock in download mode...
How does one go about doing that?

There's a link to stock firmwares on the android development link. It has carrier downloads and instructions. There's a link just below the downloads that has the stock firmware downloads with root already injected

This happens because you most likely have a i747m (Canadian S3). I have had this problem before and it is easy to fix. The recovery checks to see if you a flashing the right rom for your device, and it sees that the rom is an At&t one. Easy fix though, go into a file manager, I used total commander, and find the rom you are trying to flash, click the file, then META-INF>com>google>android> and then long press on updater-script. Unpack+edit, and delete the first line, which refers to it being an At&t rom. Save the file, reboot and make sure the change sticks, then flash away!
I live in the US, and I am on at&t. I did, however, order a refurb model.
Is it possible I could have gotten a Candian Model?
As of now, I am downloading the at&t stock rom from sammobile.com and I plan on installing it via Odin and then re rooting, followed by a Titanium Backup, then installing Goo Manager to get the latest CWM Recovery, finally getting my ROM on and I'll finish it off with a Titanium Backup.
Sounds like a 4-5 hour process. Awesome.
I just like to write everything down before I do it. Thanks so much guys!

Definitely not that long of a process unless it's the download time.
Twrp comes from goo manager and titanium backup is apps. I think you meant nandroid.
I'm not trying to nitpick misunderstanding the processes and steps are a quick way to a brick.

This is what I personally would do
1st. Odin to a stock rooted ROM
2nd. Once its all booted up download GooManager from play and install the recovery directly from GooManager (make sure its the correct recovery for your device. Its TWRP recovery)
3rd. Once installed reboot into recovery
Wipe, install, fix permissions, the whole 9
4th. Victory
I would recommend TWRP over CMW
Very few bugs, it fixes your internal partitions when going back and forth from 4.1 to 4.2 and making Nands is 1million times faster then CMW .. No status 7 or 0 errors

Does your phone boot up normally now, as is? If so, all you need is the new recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1739426
Starting from THIRD step, you can either use adb or grab a terminal emulator from the play store.
Really, only takes a couple minutes. Copy recovery.img file to your phone's internal /sdcard and then run the adb commands.
Erm, not exactly, I have a stock file for my phone (no root, but my speeds are so slow I'll just go through rooting again)
Odin can't load it.
So now I have a phone that can't boot.
What should I do with this tar.md5 file I have, exactly?
I'm lost here

Remove the ".md5" from the file name so it ends with ".tar" and ODIN should load it correctly.... maybe, hold on.
edit: How did you attempt this first? Does ODIN give any error messages?
Here is ODIN procedure:
Use Odin, put phone into download mode [with phone off, hold vol. down + home + power ], connect to computer and open Odin.
once in odin click the PDA field and select the rom_xxx.tar.md5 you downloaded.
Leave Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checked.
click start and
when done let phone reboot.
If you have issues flashing with Odin please ensure you are using the microusb cable that came with the phone, users have had issues using other cables.

hey guys
let me start off by saying i am a noob to this site and android in general , ive learnt a lot from my galaxy s2 .
now i got the s3 , ive rooted it .. however i tried to upgrade to 4.1 awhile back . kept getting error .
anyways i want to upgrade to jellybean im sick of waiting like everyone else.
cm10 seems like a good rom , ive read a lot on this forum, could some one tell me what the first step is do i flash cwm first on the rogers stock or do i have to put ATT stock on it
thanks
cheers
Hi!
Welcome to the site! You'll really love the community here!
Here are some simple instructions I found for you: http://www.androidauthority.com/gal...elly-bean-cyanogenmod-10-cm10-preview-104742/
Just make sure you download the latest CWM from here (6.0.1.2 currently): http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-d2att.img
And flash it to your device.
Then follow those steps, wipe/format data partition, as it says there. CAREFUL make sure you download the latest CyanogenMod version from here too, the top one on the list is always newest, latest version came out today actually: http://get.cm/?device=d2att
Let me know how it goes and if you're enjoying it! Tried leaked version of JB on my S3 with Telus in Canada and didn't like the bugs in there...so let me know if the 'CM Finishing Touch' on there is really better than stock!
Michael
thanks man. i will give it a try soon and let you know..
so just i get this straight i can do everything from my rogers stock rom right .. i dont have to download the att stock rom ??

Yup! Start off with CWM Recovery flash, when that's done, transfer file to device (internal sd card) and from the ROGERS stock rom you can do the apply update from zip option in CWM.

If you get the SGS3 All-in-one toolkit from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488 , you can install CWM from it just make sure you have drivers installed, it can help you with that if you don't have them, and enable USB Debugging.
If that doesn't work, which I think it should, try to use this link a bit. Download the version they have it should be pretty recent.

Quick question, I flashed CWM recovery using the terminal, and I see it when I boot into recovery, but when I go to ROM Manager to flash CM10, it says to flash CWM Recovery, and won't let me access the list. I would've flashed CWM from ROM Manager, but the S3 wasn't on the list of devices. Is there anyway to get around this?

Hi there!
Basically you must first but the CWM ZIP file on your internal sdcard then boot into CWM, from there go to install zip file or something like that, then select from SD Card, find the zip, you're done!
Don't forget to do a factory reset through CWM before the CM10 update and maybe after too.
Let me how it goes,
Michael
Never liked CWM, I personally love TWRP as a recovery. Go to the app store and download GooManager.

And I backed up a few apps using Titanium Backup, if I use factory reset, would all my backups get erased? Thanks for your help!

Hi,
CWM = CWM Recovery; same thing just shorter .
The ZIP file for your rogers phone can be found here: http://get.cm/?device=d2att
Click the one at the top of the list as it is the newest.
Don't worry about the ROM because worst case scenario if you want to downgrade to stock, you can re-download it online and re-root.
For the apps, it depends where your backups are, usually, in TitBak, the backups are stored in /sdcard/TitaniumBackup which will be safe as formatting to factory settings and data partition in CWM doesn't format the internal or external SD Card. But I am not responsable if it does so be careful!

That would be with Odin you would redownload the Stock ROM for Rogers and then flash it. To reset counter, you can download the app TriangleAway for free from the Play Store and with root, it resets the counter. Then you can unroot.
I have rooted/flashed numerous phones and have only ever had issues with this phone. Anyways, enough with the intro...
history: had cm10 running fine but decided to try some ICS roms for better battery life / tethering with 4g still active.
-------
So I used odin 1.85, and have flashed StockCWM-EL26.tar.md5. This gets me CWM recovery 5.0.2.7, from here i tried to flash cm9 experimental build beta1 or something like that and it gives me a status 7.
I tried restoring a backup I had made previously but it failed saying mm blk9 or something like that. I believe these don't work because i had updated to the latest CWMR for the e4gt, but during flashing those custom ICS ROMS they flashed their own recovery
Odin appears to be the only thing that actually recognizes my phone. I can't get fastboot or adb to work in download mode. I believe fastboot should work. I mention this because the one click rooting methods sit waiting for me to plug in my phone.
I do have access to the SD card, so if i can get a ROM that CWMR 5.0.2.7 will flash i can put it on the card and try that. But again thats how i got to cm10 was from first installing this cm9 beta build.
Any ideas or useful info i left out that may help please let me know!

The CM10 I was flashing was putting CWM v6.0.1.7 (i believe) on my device. I made my backup using this and was able to restore to this after a failed boot of my CM10 downloaded ROM.
At this point, i then flashed the latest officially supported CWM version as reported from the cwm site. I then made another backup, this time using CWM v5.0.2.7 and now feel more comfortable/confident having the ability to re-flash this guy.
I am trying to get this ROM installed on my Sprint S3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2148306. My phone is rooted and I have TWRP 2.5.0.0 installed. When I download the file on my pc and transfer it to my phone, I boot into recovery, wipe the data as recommended (already did a backup), and when I try to install, it says "Failed". I can get some other ROMS to work (Goodness, etc.) but this one I can't. The file name is Liquid-JB-v2.5-OFFICIAL-d2spr.zip. Any ideas as to where to start? I can't post in that ROM thread because I don't have more than 10 posts.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

It's either a bad download like evoer said, but more likely it's the firmware you're on. Starting with v2.5, you need to be on MD4 before you can flash the Rom. It'll fail otherwise.
The best way to get on MD4 is to go over the Freeza's Stock Rooted Rom thread and grab the MD4 Firmware update zip:
MD4 Firmware:
MD4 Firmware/modem/baseband update
MD5: EEEAFDBE59CF9C5B492B1A591EC92D02
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The filename should be: Galaxy-S-fre3-MD4FirmwareModemAIO.zip
Just boot into recovery and flash this zip. Restart your phone and verify in Settings - about phone that the baseband ends with "MD4." Then reboot into recovery and flash LiquidSmooth like normal.
Let me know if you have any more problems.

Yeah, I did that....I even tried to download the latest from GooManager and still got the same results. I'm surprised no one else has said anything, either that or something's jacked on my phone

I'm thinking this is it....I am dling it now and will let you know. Should I run it right from TWRP (I currently don't have any ROM installed but I can mount my sdcard and access the file that way) or do a restore and then run it?

Restore any working rom, flash md4, go to settings and verify. Flash liquid...should be golden
atesamc days
topherk and evoer, thanks a BUNCH for helping me with this. That was the problem. As soon as I did a restore, flashed the new MD4, verified it, then flashed liquid, it worked like a charm!
Thanks again! :good:
I have scoured tons of threads looking for help but the basic solutions don't seem to be working. I'm at a loss on where to turn, so I'm starting a new thread.
I am trying to install CM10.0 stable from the Cyanogenmod wiki (cm-10.0.0-d2att, md5 checks out using HashTab) using Odin v3.07). The SD Card has been properly formatted using 3rd party software. I have Clockwork 6.0.1.2 installed (and thank goodness I figured out the backup/restore feature)
When I go to
install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from external sdcard -> cm-10.0.0-d2att.zip
I get:
Code:
assert failed: getprop(ro.product.device") == "d2att" || getprop(ro.build.product") == "d2att"
E:Error in /external_sd/cm-10.0.0-d2att.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I know a bit of programming, so I assume that it thinks my phone (or at least the current software installed) is not for the d2att version. My phone is the Rogers version, so it's the correct one.
I don't know what to do from here. I've heard so many great things about CM10 but it's such a pain to get going, apparently. Any help would be appreciated. I've spent a long time tonight searching and reading to see if there is another way around it, and frankly I'm starting to get confused. Lots of different info and different programs that all say something else of that something else is wrong.
Thank you all for half-listening to me rant, and I appreciate any help you fine folks can throw me
Good night, I'm off to bed.

There are two reasons for your error. Yes the rogers phone and the at&t are identical phones but at a recovery level they aren't your phone will have a d2can recovery installed and the error is telling you you need to have the d2att recovery.
Also your recovery is out of date.
I don't have a link for clockwork mod but if you go here
http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/d2att/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-d2att.tar
This is the latest twrp for d2att. Flash this through Odin and it'll overwrite your current recovery. You'll be good to go after that.

Just a tip, you don't have to go through ODIN to flash a recovery if you already have a recovery installed. There are recovery flashable files to install which are super easy to use. Just like flashing a ROM. They can also be found on TRWPs website.
Cheers.

The twrp site provides .tar and .img
The cwm site provides just the .img
Neither one flashable in recovery.
Because he's on a d2can the phone recognizes it and won't let him flash through ROM manager and goo manager to a d2att.
@zeropaladn In case you don't want to odin.
This is the flashable recovery for d2att twrp

I flashed the new CWM and the d2att recovery and it worked! I didn't know that even though the phone is physically the same it wouldn't take the d2att rom from a a2can recovery. Got it working and TouchWiz is GONE! Thanks to everyone (i found the button don't worry)
T989 without any SD card in it, the one I had died apparently new one on order. Went to flash the latest PA rom but kept getting error 7 using CWM. I updated my recovery to the latest TWRP and still will not flash. I tried updating to the newest radio UVMC6, but that wont flash. I am currently on CM10.1 nightly. My process for flashing is recovery, superwipe, flash, which is when the flash errors out and I re wipe and then I can flash my CM10 back on. So I can flash CM10 all day long but nothing else. I searched on here and found that the ATT version of this phone has this problem and you have to flash an AOKP and then flash whatever you want, other phones with similar problems say use ODIN and flash stock and then go from there. I am just looking for any advice on this situation. I could not find anything specific enough in my search to help me and I am hoping someone here can. Thanks in advance.
Note: I have also tried flashing CM10.1 RC5 and has the same problems.

For onw those superwipe scripts are not needed with twrp, u might be getting the error from that, are u trying to flash from internal SD card since ur external died? That might cause it but I don't think so, I would suggest trying a manual wipe of all partitions, data, system, cache, dalvik, 2x , then flash, if that doesn't work try using Odin, go back to stock and start over, that should fix it definetly

Thank you... I wasnt sure about superwipe on TWRP since I just put it on and came from CWM. I am trying to flash from the internal card and the new external card will be at my doorstep tomorrow so I will drop that in as well. I will drop back in once I get all this done and hopefully all goes well.
Again thanks.

Odin back to stock using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513359&page=3
Used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195283 this to regain root.
Got CWM back on but now I cannot flash SuperUser
When I go to flash Superuser it says

So on the plus side I didn't brick the phone... downside now I am back to Gingerbread and currently stuck here...
Possibly a bad zip file?
Any ideas on this?
Quick update... I am a moron... Did not realize that root is kept with this restore... Got Superuser from market and am good to go.
Installing TWRP now and will have an update on the flash soon.
OK... the fun seems to have just begun
I cannot install TWRP from GooManager. No clue why, looking on here and I found //techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hercules (cant link too new of a member)
So as it seems I can download the .img and GooManager should see it and if that doesnt happen I can install it through the terminal with these commands
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
OR flash it with ODIN... Which I would assume I get the .tar file and follow the same process as putting the recovery files in?
Aside from TWRP being an issue, I tried installing the PA rom with CWM and I got this:
Installing update
set_perm:some changes failed
E:Error in /sdcard/pa_hercule...zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
The same error I had in the first place

I'm not sure what your overall problem is, but if you are going to install TWRP do not use Goo Manager or the img file. They have been messing up peoples phones. Odin the tar or try the zip from the TWRP thread.

Well that could be a problem... I just got GooManager to do what I wanted it to do before I saw this message. If I overwrite it with the tar will that be ok or am I better off starting this process over and Odin back to factory stock again?
Along with that after I got TWRP working through Goo Manager again I tried flashing PA again and I had the same error as I did in the first place.
Maybe my phone just hates anything but the nightly I had before...

If you can boot into TWRP, then they must have fixed the Goo problem.
It seems like you have tried most everything. Maybe you should Odin back to stock. If you are comfortable doing it, that is.
i went to flash with goo last night and it bricked the phone kind of, i had to ODIN and reflash the CWM again and bam the phone rebooted no problem

I did Odin back to stock before. I am still on stock gingerbread right now with root access and am getting the errors I have been. I followed the tutorials in the sticky thread that I posted before that got me back to stock.
Within TWRP I tried installing the newest Cyanogen Mod and got
E:Error executing updater binary in zip
Error flashing zip
When I try installing the PA rom I get the same error
Any thoughts? Would going back to stock through Odin and doing this again potentially fix it? or is that a shot in the dark?
Lucky for me I kept a backup saved on my PC from before I did anything here. So I am back to the CM 10.1 Nightly I started on for the time being.
Is there any other method of flashing a rom that I might be able to try?

It would be a shot in the dark. I did a Google search for your error and a couple of people said they were able to fix it by using TWRP 2.3. That was for different phones though. Maybe try that before going stock.
I am by no means a pro at this and am still learning as I go. Just to make sure of what I am doing, can I Odin TWRP 2.3? I also found this

Just a thought here... I keep gettin emmc errors... I was reading about upgrading and downgrading TWRP through the Terminal Emulator and it said use emmc or sdcard depending on what the phone reads it as.
When I first got the phone i recall seeing emmc when i would go into any file browser. Now it just says sdcard0 (internal) & sdcard1 (external)
So how can I get recovery to stop looking for emmc and start looking for sdcard0?
Unless I am way off in left field here with this.

Yes, use Odin and the 2.3.3.0 tar from the techerrata website. I like using the Odin method because I have never had a problem upgrading recovery that way. I don't know about the emmc errors because I have only used the dd method like twice.
Edit: Maybe your internal memory is corrupted? I'm not sure how to test for that though.

I think u must be getting bad DL then because none of that sounds right lol, if u got twrp to load into your device and all is working fine then the only other option is a bad DL, try checking the DL with a root browser or something to see the size of the file, status 7 errors are from the zip, usually bad install script in the ROM, which could be caused by a bad DL, check the DL size and let me know
