Can't flash CM 10.2 assert failed - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Okay, just rooted with Odin, have CWM v6. Everything went fine, rooted fine, running stock rom.
Went to flash CM 10.2 Nightly, got assert error.
Used Odin to flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41503727&postcount=13716
That was supposed to update my bootloader. Flashed successful, "PASS" from Odin.
Pull battery, start CWM, wipe data. try to flash CM 10.2 again, and get:
E: Error in /emmc/cm-10.2-20130927-NIGHTLY-d2att.zip
(Status 6)
Installation aborted.
What do I do now?
It lets me install 10.1 just fine.

What version did u update from? The link u posted is lk3, the newest is ucdmg2...

From another forum:

"Status 6 is basically trying to read a file that's not encoded in UNIX"

the flashing script might have been modified afterwards by a UNIX-incompatible editor, which makes it unreadable by Android.

Can't install stock rom

I can install ANY rom (cm10.1, Omega 9.1, Revolution 6.0, etc) except for Stock. I tried via CWM, TWRP, adb sideload and Odin. I also tried 3 different .zips (Greek, French DLL4 and DLL7).
I always get the same error:
E: Can't open rom.zip (bad) Installation aborted
Very frustrating.. help?
Have you made sure the rom files are complete? Check the MD5 for each rom u downloaded
Indeed.looks like a bad download.

Hi,
difficult to believe 3 zips are corrupted. As far as remember (but not sure as I didn't flash for a long time), if you downloaded them from samfirmware, you can't flash them through recovery: you need to unzip them first before flashing xxx.tar.md5 as PDA with odin.

[Q] Cant install rom after installing Probam N7105

I installed probam(4.4.2) rom on my phone about a week ago, was having trouble with it so i tryed to wipe everything and install Skynote Air Rom (4.3). but everytime i go to install i get
"installing update..."
"format() expects 5 args got 3"
"E: error in /storage/sdcard1/Roms/Sky_Note_Air.zip"
"(status 7)"
"installation Aborted"
so after that failed i tried odin to go to complete stock firmware and re-root and get CWM recovery and now its just running stock
Now i have done a little Research but im getting mixed answers, some say its the recovery, but others say its because i need to re-partion my phone.
tried philz recovery, and TWRP but both with same error
If it needs re-partioning how would i go about doing it without bricking my phone
any help would be very appreciated
Thanks
...hello there...I suggest this steps...
1) check if your phone is rooted correctly (use GalaxyNote2Root)
2) flash Philz recovery over Odin (use philz_touch_6.02.1-n7100)
3) Try with some custom ROM that have Aroma instalation like (use Sotmax_Ultimate_Stock_V14_XXUEMK4_HD_AR)
Regards...

Unable to Flash CM.11 using TWRP (Fail error)

I tried flashing the latest snapshot, nightly and stable build of CM.11 using TWRP. I did a factory reset first then tried flashing CM.11 followed by GApps, but all I get is "Failed" in red when I try flashing the rom.
Any Ideas?
Flash Philz Touch recovery and then flash cm11.

Thx. I'll give it a go and let you know! Hope this works
Update: Sadly that too failed. The last thing it tries to do before receiving the red "failed" error is this: Updating partition details...
The error is this:
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '.sdcard/Android Roms/philz_touch_6.15.4-d2att.zip
Im going to try and put these flashable files in the root of my SD card and see if that helps.
If it fails again, find and select Copy Log to SD. Often this will give more insight into the cause.
Try flashing via Odin.

[Q] Can't Flash - Teamwin error flashing zip

Trying to flash several ROMs on the latest version of Teamwin, and even a lower version after reading that it helped someone. Had to use ODIN recently and went back to a bone stock ROM, and now I rooted it and am trying to flash a custom ROM. Trying the latest SlimROM, Liquid, CM11, no luck.
Teamwin is saying "E: Error in /external_sdcard/ROM NAME
(Status 7)
Error flashing zip ' /external_sdcard/ROM NAME
Updating partition details. . ."
Any ideas before I re-ODIN my phone and go back to using a stock ROM?
Alright, I installed a JB stock ROM with bootloader via ODIN and I'll use this until tomorrow when I have more time. I'll re-root it, get a proper 4.3 ROM and give it a shot.
Did you give CWM a try?
Is there a reason your trying to use twr specifically?

Not able to flash any Rom.

I was trying to flash Cynogen Mod 12 and my phone gave an error as this package is for device: a5,a5dug,a5dwg,a5chl,a5ul; this device is htc_a5dug.
E:Error in /data/media/0/cm-11-20141124-NIGHTLY-a5.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
After restarting it got bricked and it is stuck on HTC logo.
I tried flashing other ROM and also the Stock ROM as i can use CWM or TWRP on my phone and also can use fastboot.
But i get the same error everytime i try to flash any ROM. Please Help. Its been a day my phone is bricked.

Yes i did a full wipe !
That file seems to be cm11. Not cm12.
If you can use a custom recovery.. I would grab the newest cm12 nightly for the A5.
Then download the gapps from Cyanogen..
Fresh wipe.. Flash cm12 nightly.. Try and reboot.. Then flash gapps..
