Hi
I have tried everything from flashing new Clockworkmod recovery to going back to original nothing takes.
Clockworkmod recovery v5.8.1.5 will not go away
and when I try to install ROM I get
symlink: error in /sdcard/romname.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
does anyone have any ideas?
Are you S-Off or do you have an unlocked bootloader? Have you relocked? What ROM are you trying to flash? Where are you getting your recovery? How are you trying to flash it?

Status 7 usually refers to a bad download or a wrong device Rom. Check that the rom you are flashing is the right for your device and that the md5sum is correct.

Try to adb erase cache, re-install recovery by adb. Make sure it the current TWRP version, or try Philz. This is a known issue on TWRP, and not uncommon.
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..

Not able to flash any Rom.
Anyone ever been trying to flash the stock OG5.TAR through ODIN and had it fail, then sayd Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again. I can not get a rom or stock tar to flash and work after having other issues.
Also tried flashing twrp again, then going into recovery and flashing Sac23's Rom, and get this error:
symlink: some symlinks failed
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sd/Note_5_Sac23_Port_V2.1.zip'
Error flashing zip '/external_sd/Note_5_Sac23_Port_V2.1.zip'
and says Failed.

A little more info such as did you check md5 after downloading the stock tar?
Whats your current version of Android?
What other if any mods have you done?
You can try the stock rom by tx_dbs_tx here:

Read the OP carefully.
If that works then go here:

and flash one of the three awsome bug free roms.
