I know this has been asked hundreds of times, and i searched the forums for days for a way to fix it, but with no use.
I have a rooted AT&T Galaxy SIII with JB 4.1.1. I am trying to install the CM 10.1(4.2.2) Nightly version, but i always get the infamous "Status 7 Installation Aborted" error.
Yes i am sure im downloading the correct ROM zip file for my phone and carrier.
I have CWM 6.0.2.1, and i followed the steps correctly. (Clear data -> Clear Cache Partition -> Clear Dalvik Cache -> install ROM)
I have tried so many times, i also re-rooted my phone, reinstalled CWM, and redownloaded different nightly versions of the ROM, as well as other ROMS like JellyBam.
I also tried to delete the assert lines in the update-script file, but that also wouldnt work.
Thank you. :good:
And please dont hate on me, im new to rooting and flashing. :crying:

if you can boot into the phone, download ROM manager and update your cwm recovery. latest version is 6.0.2.8.
CM10 and 10.1 are picky about you having the most recent version. cheers

Hi guys, I'm having same issue but on N7000 international version. I'm able to go in the recovery mode and download mode but phone won't boot normally. It's stuck on Samsung logo so can you please advise something? How can I update CWM if that's the issue. I was on ICS 4.0.4 XXLRK before trying to install CM10.1 on Note.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I would be doing my research in an N7000 forum, friend.
Also, your post seems confusing as you seem to be saying you also got a status 7 error but then you appear to have installed abroad and are stuck at the boot logo. If you successfully flashed the correct rom for your device without any errors, pull battery, replace and wipe data in recovery. Reboot

Apologies for both confusion and using the S3 that to find some help. I just found the situation quite familiar so I couldn't help myself from asking the question
On the situation, I was able to install CWM and am able to go to recovery or download mode but the error displays when I try to update the zip of any rom.

If the phone itself is functioning fine but you simply cannot flash a new rom or rom update, you need to update your recovery. Go to clockworkmods website and download version 6.0.1.2.

Right now, phone doesn't get pass Samsung boot logo so will I be able to update new CWM using Odin? (Sorry, if the question appears to be basic or stupid)

I would take up this situation in the correct forum. The more we discuss your device issues the more likey you are to download the wrong file or use a procedure not designed for your device software.
If you came from stock, flashed a rom and are stuck at the samsung logo, boot into recovery, wipe data and cache. Reboot to see if that helped. If not, seek advice in the N7000 forum. Cheers
Thanks for the guidance.
Hello all,
Please can someone help me??
I have a HTC One X, I have unlocked my phone on HTCDev, it is showing as rooted (not broken lol) and i can add superuser on there.
I have CWM installed v.5.8.4.0 however, when looking in the ROM Manager, trying to update it is shows me 6.0.4.7 under recovery setup. but when i boot into recovery it still shows me 5.8.4.0??
I have been trying to install the Beanstalk-4.4.240-20140206-endeavouru.zip...
I keep getting stuck in the installation with the message status 7 and then installation stops..
I have cleared all the files and cache that is required prior and still fails. I have tried removing the assert / getpro lines and I still get status 7 during installation.
I have tried a few different ROMs all telling me they are for HTC One X (so i am guessing these just are the right ROMs)
The only think i can see i have is that i have S-On, but i cannot seem to find anywhere to turn this off.. Is this the only reason it is not working????
I have tried another recovery images as well and still no luck?? (unless i did that wrong)
Please can someone help me, I would really like to put a Kitkat ROM on my phone as HTC are not going to get this done..
Ditch rommanager, it does not work on a s-on hox. Second you need to flash a kitkat recovery to install kitkat roms and a sense recovery to install sense 5 roms or earlier build aosp roms.
So for kitkat download the latest philz touch recovery available, and if you want sense based roms i suggest to use philz touch 5.15......
You have to flash boot.img & recoverys via fastboot (pc) to the phone !

Thank you i have checked this out.. but i can only find the Philz touch 6.19.3 clockworkmod 6.0.4 so i have updated
Just a slight issue now where i am cleaning all what has to be cleared and then installing the ROM and GAPP which both are now installing by the look of it and no errors.. but i am looping back into Philz touch rather than the phone restarting.. Even if i restore the previous version it still comes back to Philz touch..
do you know why this is happening? I tried CM11 Rom and also the Beanstalk 4.4 ROM (As well as restore) all coming back to recovery mode.. Im lost now
Try this recovery and flash a sense 5 rom to check if that works. It should not boot back.to the recovery.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
And can you post the outcome of :
Fastboot getvar all
And delete the imei and serial number before posting it !!
ok the 5.15 installed fine, but the images here are giving me status 7 and restore is not working for me from here either
i have attached the getvar all outcome
The specs are fine, download a sense 5 rom like viper X or arhd. And install it like this :
Flash the boot.img of the rom !
Then enter the recovery and make a FULL wipe :
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts and storage - format cache , data and system
Then install the rom (if you go for viper you select cache wipe only and full rom install in the aroma)
ok I realised i didn't do the boot.img correctly.. i tried it again now but went back to Touch 6 and the Beanstalk has installed YAY!! :laugh:
You said "download a sense 5 rom like viper X or arhd" are these better than Beanstalk? I am asking as this is my first 4.4 ROM i have installed...?
I do have to say i do like the sense 5 so wondering if it is worth changing ROM to what you are suggesting?
Otherwise it is now working... Thank you heaps for all your help
Ah no there is no "better" rom. I suggested these because i have experience with these roms. Just for testing purposes.
But all is fine. And you know how to flash so all good.
CASE CLOSED !
so, i flashed the kitkat bootloader from odin, then flashed the zip from philz touch recovery. the kernel splash screen stayed on for a long time, then the screen went out, and it loaded to the kernel splash, then to recovery. then i realized i hadnt wiped, so i flashed the kitkat stock rom through odin, installed philz touch recovery, did a full wipe, then installed the zip, and the same thing happened. being a new member with less than 10 posts i cant post on the official thread, so... whats the deal? what could the problem be?
EDIT: my bad everyone. i found a misleading link to philz, the newest version in that thread was not the newest version.

in aroma choose the stock kernel option. I had the same bootloop problem ....it kept going into recovery.
After choosing the stock kernel everything was smooth.
off course pls confirm that you are using the correct ROM version
for 5100 version is 1.2
1.3 is only for 5110
I didn't see any kernel options let me make a nandroid and run it again. and yeah I have the 5110. Thanks
hey, i reinstalled it, there were no kernel options, but i left the bootanimation option on stock samsung, and i had been using the XAR region, so i tried btu this time, because thats what the stock rom i have installed is. still crashes to recovery
EDIT: and after restoring my nandroid, i get to the rom splash screen, and it just loops there.

Here is the link to Stock KK:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=29611
Also download Odin v3.09 from the same link.
Then follow these instructions:
1) Unzip the Download zip file, you will get N5110XXDNE1_N5110OXADNE1_HOME.tar.md5
2) Put the tablet in Download mode
3) Install N5110XXDNE1_N5110OXADNE1_HOME.tar.md5 using "PA" option of ODIN.
4) It will take a while, let it finish.
5) If that works, reboot back to download mode
6) Install latest Philz recovery, using ODIN's PA option.
7) Reboot into recovery, and install any custom ROMS.
Note: This will trip your KNOX counter

thats the thing.... i flashed it, i have stock rooted kitkat running fine, i have philz recovery running fine, but when i try to flash the custom kitkat rom, i wipe, flash the zip, the aroma installer boots i choose a few options, the aroma installer completes, then i reboot and it just crashes to recovery, no matter how many times i try, how many factory resets i do, anything. knox is tripped, but i can't run the rom. i had the 4.2.2 custom touchwiz from the same developer running fine, but then i decided i had to have kitkat, and.... nothing. it simply won't run.
if it matters, i am already running the same stock rom you linked to, 4.4.2 btu
EDIT: just for the record, i am not new to this in general, only this particular device - my sprint galaxy s3 is running carbon rom, my galaxy gear is running null rom, i flashed N3BULA on my dad's verizon galaxy note two, and ive already decided on a rom for the note 3 i am getting at the end of july.
this is just my first time encountering this problem, all assistance with this matter is greatly appreciated.

Ok, so first try to validate the MD5 of the file that you are installing.
if you are installing "CivZ-FlexNote8.0_KK-Rev1.3-N5110_signed.zip" then the MD5 should match as below:
b8abeb1ec9535ef526d02ef402788359
Validate the MD5 in PC as well as Tablet. Sometime you get a good download on PC, but when you copy it to Phone/tablet file might not get copied properly.
Second option you can try to install another 4.4.2 based ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2763274
Again validate the MD5 before installing.

RocketTab v3.1

Flash fails with:
Installation aborted (bad), can't open <path to zip file><name of zip>
This happens after a factory reset, wipe data, cache.
I have a Samsung S3 that I have rooted, and then flashed many times. Before that I had an HTC EVO. I am not new to the process, but apparently I am missing something here.
Got any suggestions?
Which Odin Version you are used to install The Recovery? Try an other Version.
Is your Rom on The micro Sdcard ? If you use Philz so is The max capacity 32 GB, if you use TWRP so is max 64 GB supported.

How do you rooted your Tab?
With Stockrecovery you can not flash a Rom or Recovery.
Flash Philz or TWRP With Odin, reboot to The New flashen Recovery , than you can install a Rom.

Sounds like the rom download is bad. Check the md5 of the rom before trying to install.
Kind of success. I downloaded the same version of PhilZ, for Odin, on my laptop.
I put the tablet in download mode and flashed the recovery with Odin.
I downloaded the ROM again (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...m-stockrom-kitkat-version-16-08-2014-t2849742). This is one I had tried before. This time to my laptop and copied it to the tablet. The other times, I had downloaded the ROM directly onto the tablet.
While it was in the process of flashing, there were some video anomolies.
I rebooted the tablet into recovery and flashed the ROM. It hung on SAMSUNG for a very long time after the flash and reboot. I powered it off and rebooted. It booted completely this time, but not without some issues. The first thing was when the message pops up that Android is optimizing apps. That bar was all screwy looking, snowy. (see attached image)
Once I got to the lock screen and entered the pin, the screen "fractured", pieces shifted around, and the tablet locked up. I wish I had taken a picture of it. Never seen anything like it.
I had not done a data wipe yet. I did a data wipe, rebooted, entered the pin, tablet locked up again.
I then was going to restore the backup I made before the flashing. It wouldn't restore because of an MD5 mismatch. I had restored this backup previously with no problem.
I restored an older backup and then spent a couple of hours getting everything back to the level of the now broken backup.
Flash nolekat and all went fine.
I've had problems as well. I normally flash via a recovery. At times I'll have an md5 mismatch or it just doesn't work; I've even backed up a working ROM only to find out I can't restore the same backup. Seems like a hit or miss with me
I tried flashing NoleKat and it failed on me too.

bierma32 said:
At one of your post you write after flashing you must put in the Pin?
So you have make not a clean install or factory reset, you done a wipe cache and wipe dalvik.
You must do a clean install if you come from different Roms or Version.

Please post a picture from your Recovery with the error message.
okay so before i had this issues i had an issue to where none of my apps could save anything except for stock apps
everything else was locked down or sending and error messages , i got this resolved to flashing stock 4.4.2 (May 2014 Release)
after i had found that my root and custom recovery was lost i decided to flash it with the one i had last time ( TWRP https://www.dropbox.com/s/27vm6gnp6kwlknc/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-d2spr.tar?dl=0 ) after i had flashed it i decided to boot up with it two times to make sure that i didn't brick my phone (keep in mind the last time i rooted my phone was may so i may have flashed the wrong CR) after the phone had booted successfully i had also found that my hotspot mod had also been deleted , so i flashed that ( I flashed the ND8 Odex version [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224083] ) so after a while of configuring my phone back up to par , per se , i was going through my previosly downloaded rooted apps provided by Xposed , which also redirected my to the app , asked for me to reinstall and i couldnt because it didnt have root perms (also on the 2nd reboot with twrp it recognized that i didnt have root , so it gave it to me ) and then Super SU returned with the error ( Photo is attached ) and this is where i need help , granting / rooting bugs ... anyhelp?
