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.

[Q] Help status 7 phone useless

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.

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] Error executing updater binary

Just installed TWRP 2.8.0.1 and I'm unable to flash any 4.4+ ROMs. I get the error"E: error executing updater binary", then the flash fails. Is there any way to fix this?
Was trying to flash the new Dirty Unicorns ROM.

I would try a different recovery, from what I understand there are some problems with twrp 2.8 on our device. I could be wrong but the one that was posted here was closed because it was erasing the whole phone.
Try twrp 2.7 or Philz. CWM is ok, but I think Philz will restore a backup from CWM or TWRP.

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..
