[Q] "Status 7" Error When Installing CM 11 - Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am facing a “Status 7″ error in CWM 6.0.2.8 and 6.0.4.5 while trying to flash CM 11 to my GT-I8160:
Finding update package…
Opening update package…
Installing update…
Error in /sdcard1/Android/Cyanogen Mod 11/Rom/cm-11-20131210-UNOFFICIAL-codina.zip (Status 7)
Installation aborted
I tried flash with CM 10.2, stock I8160XXMG2 Jelly Bean, MIUI v5 Beta 3. I always faced with this error. I never faced an error like this. Other roms (CM 10, 10.1, 10.2, Kyrillos Rom v9, v8, MIUI v5 Beta 3) install correctly. How can I fix this problem?

Flash older version and then new...
Or wait next build with incldued fix for olde recoveries...

Yes me too, today I tried to flash this ROM to my device but it appears the same error, can it be the recovery? I am just using CM10.2 with 4.3.0
I hope this can be fixed.
Regards

Ok. I will wait for the next build. Unless it work, I will flash older version and then new.

Can't flash CM 10.2 assert failed

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 flash any Kitkat ROMs with TWRP.

Hi, would anyone with enough knowledge on this phone guide me as to what is wrong?
I have a xperia s which I have unlocked bootloader and flashed various custom ROMs from android 2.x all the way to android jelly bean 4.2.2
I always wipe all available partitions except for the internal sdcard before flashing any ROMs.
For some reason, I have tried to flash kitkat ROMs for this phone with different versions of TWRP, 2.6.3.0 up to 2.7.1.0 but it keeps failing with the same error:
set_metadata_recursive some changes failed
Error executing updater binary in .zip
I have tried to flash carbon rom, paranoidandroid ROMs which are all based on kitkat 4.4.4 and both fail with the same error, I do not want to reflash back a old ROM based on jelly bean I just want to bring this phone up to the latest version of android but this problem still persists no matter how many times I try.
Appreciate any help.

"Error executing updater binary in .zip" error occurs when the zip You are flashing does not have compatible script for that version of the cwm/twrp.
Do one thing, extract the boot.img from the rom which You want to flash on the pc.
Copy the rom.zip to the phone.
Then flash the boot.img using fastboot via pc.
Then flash the rom using twrp via phone which would be installed on the phone.

Have you sorted this? For me the problem was that I followed an old online tutorial that gave me an old version of cmw recovery. Once I'd flashed the new version it worked. Took me a while to figure out though.

Unable to install CM 10.2 on T999L

Dear team
please help me, i am unable to install CM 10.2 on my t999l, i m getting installation aborted error, first i was getting status 7 error but after modifying updater-script many times i am getting installation aborted error. i have also flased cwm recovery 6.0.4.3. maybe i am not modifying the updater-script correctly,
thanks
Did you try adding your bootloader to the updater script? Try it with the phone running the latest release of twrp.

TWRP Problem

Hello sir, i tried to install xiaomi.eu rom or other rom available from XDA but my twrp always shown error 7, sometimes error 11.
IDK Why, I tried every possible solution available but none of them working. I tried to flash global rom miui 10 or china rom miui 11, it's working, but I'm not satisfied with that rom.
any idea how to fix it?

I faced similar problem. I ve flashed Los 16 last year, so I wanted to refresh device and tried to flash same latest Los 16, but With twrp 3.3... I got error 7, so I flashed latest miui 11 Dev and it worked. But when I be tried to flash Los 17 - same error 7. Solution- twrp 3.4.... But I got error 7 with twrp 3.4 when tried to flash los 16... So it is mess )
So it is a bit tricky, because there are no requirements in Rom's threads...
