I am not exactly sure where things started to go wrong. I just recently installed the latest ROM of Task650's Jellybean 4.2.2
I have been trying to update to the latest ROM and I recieve:
[assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "E: Error in /external_sd/ROMs and Gapps /aokp_JB_4.2.2_d2att-ota-eng.task650-4.26.2013.zip
(Status 7)]
I have looked up the issue and updated the Kernel and updated to the latest CWM and still get the same error.
Another thing I have noticed is that I cannot flash any other ROMs like CyanogenMod or anything
I also noticed in my devices folders, that I basically have mulitple of the same folders in multiple directories... I am not sure if this is from flashing too many times... I have never had this many problems with my device before. I like to have everything updated, which I have been able to do before, but now I can't do anything.
Can I get some advice on what to do?
if you have an i747 (d2att), was that a d2att cwm update you applied? it will say in the updater-script (in the recovery zip) what model it's for.
each time you flash a 4.2.2 ROM you're likely adding the multiple folders. a known issue. follow the link in my signature for some more details on this down in post #2 of that thread. essentially, back everything up (either to a micro sd card or your PC) and perform a full wipe before flash (including /system and /data + /media) to avoid this problem. we'll work on that once you've got this first issue fixed.
Fixed my issue!
I'm guessing I had flashed the wrong CWM:good: for my phone.

Hi,
Yesterday i tried flashing some custom roms, which result in showing some error messages as mentioned below.
[ "Assert failed: get prop("ro.product.device')
Error in /sdcard /......
(Status 7) ]
"Downloaded all the roms thrice.... the file size was correct"
Now, the model im using is Maguro (GSM Version).., and i downloaded the correct versions from all the Rom's thread. My ClockWorkmod Recovery version is 6.0.0.5.
I usually follows this procedure before flashing:- (I) formats /system,formats /dalvik cache,formats /factory reset, & then flash the appropriate rom.
The Roms i able to flash successfully are Bigxie odexed Rom (4.1.1) & AndroidME GNex v1.4.0 ....
The Roms i'm not able to flash are BAMF Paradigm v2.0, MiNCO v1 & Miui 2.7.20.....(which i eagerly waiting to give a try)
so, its the problem with my phone (may be clockworkmod or something else).
Have anybody face this issue before, if so, how do you overcome this ??
THANKS !!
Will try to update my CWM to 6.0.1.0 and check ...

Typically this happens when the Rom dev alters the build.prop and renames the device, often times this can be remedied by flashing a custom kernel first followed by the rom but you will probably want to post in the particular rom thread to find out which kernel you should flash
You should also check our MD5 sums to make sure there wasnt an error in the download.

I don't have the post count to ask this question so I hope I'm not violating forum rules posting here. As per the title, I'm trying to install the latest nightly of CM10 on my T999v SGS3. I've installed CWM Touch (latest build) and copied the latest nightly to the root of my phone. I then boot into recovery and then factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and then proceed with the installation.
I then get this error.
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "E:Error in /sdcard/cm-10-20121014-NIGHTLY-d2tmo.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
Would anybody knowledgeable with this be able to direct me to a solution please?
Thanks.
My phone is rooted
My previous ROM was FREEGS3v6 rom with the Trinity Kernel
All I can think of is a bad download. The error it's throwing you says you don't have the correct device/file for the device, so if you have a T-Mobile S3 all I can think of is a bad download.
I have a WIND version so T999v, and after reading the CM10 thread a few WIND users have successfully flashed it. I redownloaded the file but still the same error message.
what recovery are you using? try updating to 6.0.1.2 and try again
It sounds like you have a modified build.prop by the assertion error being thrown. Try flashing another rom first and then reflash cm
Edit: if you want check your build prop and verify that the line ro.product.device has d2tmo as its value
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I checked out that value with build prop editor and it was d2can so do I change it to d2tmo or flash another rom first?
I doubt this will be of much help but who knows. I am a tmo S3 user who just rooted and updated to CM10 (cm-10-20121011-EXPERIMENTAL-d2tmo-M2) yesterday. I had the same error that you did but all I did to fix it was update to ClockworkMod v6.0.1.2 and then it installed fine. I doubt the v6.0.1.2 would work but Touch would not. I was just happy that I didn't have to mess with the build.prop or anything else to resolve. Good luck.

I had the same problem as you and this is what I did.
I rooter my phone. Am I then install CWM Touch and do the wipes and install CM10 but all this without restart my phone. And this time I did not have the error.
I was having the same problem, so I reverted back to factory stock. Then I rooted my phone and installed cm10 and it worked fine.
I'm trying to update from Lg8 to LI3 to Jelly. I restored stock recovery and i'm still rooted. Tried installing stock boot loader. I don't recall removing anything from my ROM or changing anything. I did everything I could think of and every time I try to update I get>>
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I cant for the life of me figure out why it wont update.
Ive been trying to figure this out for the last 2 hours.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have not tried the update using the stock recovery. I tried to use twrp first and then CWM (where it finally worked). I was getting Status 7 errors at first as well. It was due to having a couple of missing system files (Swype). I would not have been able to know except twrp and CWM allow you to save the recovery log to sdcard after the error. This allowed me to pinpoint the cause of the error so I could fix it.
I would suggest loading up CWM and trying the following:
You can use this procedure if you are fully stock (but rooted) LI3:
- You must not have any modified or removed system files.
- You must be odexed (not de-odexed).
- Download eec955eb4a5b.update_SPH-L710_LI3_to_LJ7.zip and save it to your sdcard.
- Download TeamEpic-Root-from-Recovery-v5.zip and save it to your sdcard.
- Make sure you are fully stock (replace any files that you have modified or removed. i.e. Swype, etc).
- Boot into CWM recovery (I found that TWRP will not work due to ro.secure=0).
- Make a nandroid backup (optional but recomended)
- Flash the LI3_to_LJ7 udpate
- Flash the Team Epic (optional but will insure that the ROM does not reinstall the stock recovery on reboot).
- Wipe Cache.
- Reboot
Im not on LI3 im on LG8 and cant get to LI3
The only thing I could think of is that the update is failing because you are rooted. But it's 2am here so I'm probably not thinking too straight lol.
Anyhow make a nandroid and then I would try updating it through ODIN, see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951885
I haven't gotten the update notification yet but I am running the leak that I flashed through CWM.
So I am an HTC owner but doing some root & ROM work for a friend of mine. Normally, I load a ROM onto the SD card, boot into recovery, wipe, flash zipped ROM from SD card, reboot, enjoy. However, The GS3 I am working on does not recognize the SD card within recovery. Everytime I try to flash a ROM (CM10 & MIUI thus far) none of them work. I get the following when trying to flash:
-- Installing /sdcard/miuiandroid_d2tmo_jb-3.1.11.zip
Finding Update package
Opening update package
Installing Update
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2tmo" || getprop("ro.build.product) == "d2tmo"

Now, this tells me that my download is corrupt somehow. However, I get this exact same message when trying to flash CM10. Furthermore, both ROMs were acquired directly from the dev download links. Has anyone else had a similar problem and can provide a solution?
Update CWM. Link in my signature.

Wow! I feel like a moron! I use TWRP on my LTEvo so it has been a long time since I've even touched CWM. Looks like the update did the trick. Flashed MIUI and accompanying gapps perfectly! Thank you!
One more question, is there a generic gapps that I can flash across ROMs or no? For instance, I have the gapps that was posted next to MIUI. However, I'd like to see how CM10 runs. Am I able to flash the gapps posted with MIUI or is there a specifically designed gapps file for CM10? I ask because with the Evo gapps are generic and can be interchanged with AOSP ROMs.
Hello everyone. I tried to wipe my kindle and replace the rom last night but its not letting me install anything. I have been running a version of Smoothrom for months now without any issues. I am giving the kindle to my gf so I wiped it and tried to upgrade to a kitkat rom first. I did a complete wipe of everything then loaded the roms on via usb. Now, when I try to install a new rom I get an error which Ill post below. I am using TWRP 2.5.0.0. I tried loading several different 4.4 roms and they all get the same error:
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/AmazonHfk2.8-20131220-Stable-otter.zip
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/AmazonHfk2.8-20131220-Stable-otter.zip
Updating partition details.......
It stays like that. If I try to reset it I get a message saying "Root permissions appear to be lost, fix root permissions now?"
Any ideas would be really appreciated.
SOLVED: I tried a few different Roms and it seems like its just the 4.4 roms that are failing. Im assuming its just my version of TWRP so ill try to update it. Feel free to delete this thread. Sorry for clogging up the forum.
