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.

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.
I tied to flash the pac-man 4.2.2 ROM to my rooted s4. It worked but all the Google apps did not come with it... so I downloaded an app package off of GooManeger. Anyway after reboot it was obvious the app package was not compatible. Wiped phone, then no ROM, no OS, no nothing. Device doesn't get past initial boot screen. I can get into download and recovery mode. Not really sure how to download anything on my phone right now as my computer doesn't recognize it anymore. My recovery mode is TeamWin. I'm sure there's more you want to know so please ask and I appreciate your help.

You need to start from scratch using ODIN and flash the stock/non rooted Tmobile Samsung Galaxy S4 M919 firmware.
(using download mode in the phone)
Here is the download link: http://www.hotfile.com/dl/213469534/9ff06bd/M919UVUAMDL_M919TMBAMDL_TMB.zip.html
After the odin flash you will need to root the phone unless you want to keep it stock.
Good luck!

You may have wiped the /system folder which may explain why your phone is stuck on the booting sequence. As the poster said above, use Odin to flash the stock MDL and root again. As far as your computer not recognizing it. Put the phone into download mode (Vol Down + Home + Power), plug the phone into a different USB port (and let the drivers install if it's the first time you're plugging your phone in that port for Windows users), and then open up Odin and flash the stock firmware from there. Let us know if Odin recognizes your phone.
If you can still get into download mode and recovery, you are NOT totally bricked.

Got phone back to normal, then accomplished root access. Downloaded clock work and now recovery mode does not work. I downloaded CW from hot file. I was sure to download the right one for my phone... anyway I cant factory reset at the moment, it just sticks at recovery boot screen. What I'm trying to accomplish is download CW, pacman 4.3 ROM, and Gapps.

Start using and MD5 hash checker to make sure your downloads are not corrupted. :silly:
Odin back to stock and re-root. IIRC, CWM should be available from the Play store where you can then open the app and install/update the libraries. Didn't Pacman ROM include CWM?
Thank you guys for the advice. Super usefull
I was under the impression I needed to download a download a recovery mod first. Where is the best place to get my ROMs? I'm real interested in the pacman. I extracted the pacman files but it wont plug into the PDA in Odin. Also MD5 hash checker is something I've never heard of..

You need to have a working custom recovery first. Like Skipjacks stated, you flash ROM in the custom recovery.
I think you should start from the beginning and take it step by step.
I assumed at this point you're rooted on the stock ROM with stock recovery?
If not lets get to that stage and we can go from there.
-Stock ROM rooted with stock recovery
-Flash custom recovery
-Nandroid backup
-Flash custom ROM<<You are here

I did it all with exception of flashing the ROM. Every time I try to flash the pacman 4.3 it fails. Any suggestions on how to fix that or should I turn my attention so a different ROM. I'm going for optimization and complete customization, without needing a launcher. Or maybe a suggested ave to customize touch wiz to the fullest.

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.

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.

At one of your post you write after flashing you must put in the Pin?

[Q] Need help in solving "Unfortunately, settings have stopped working" error
Problem: My unrooted SGH-I747 model AT&T GS3 recently gave me this error whenever trying to access the settings. The error shows up even after a full factory reset and I can no longer access my phone. Stuck a little after the language selection in the beginning stages of the setup.
Attempted fixes: Obviously, the initial factory reset. Then clearing the cache + factory reset.
After those failed to work, I tried to flash to a AT&T stock rom from this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33570269#post33570269) using Odin. I tried to use the first row of downloads but the first row but it did not have a MD5 file, so I used the second row of downloads instead but this rom failed to install. My guess is that it may be too old of a version.
I would appreciate any help.
[SOLVED]
The problem may have arose from a critical error in the phone's software that had affected the OS system of the phone. I resolved the issue by flashing a new custom OS (cyanogenmod) to my phone. These are the steps that I took:
1. Installing Odin (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722686)
2. Rooting my cellphone with CFAutoRoot using Odin (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1725839)
3. Installing a custom recovery TWRP -- highly recommended very user friendly (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1793224)
4. Installing a new custom rom through TWRP-- used Cyanogen (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778270)
5. Installing gapps (http://opengapps.org/?api=5.1&variant=nano)
6. Identifying the correct bootloader by downloading and installing Samsung Phone Info by vndnguyen through the Play Store.
7. Installing the correct bootloader and modem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/general/rooted-ucufnj1-stock-rom-t2985006)
Please refer to respective installation guides for more instructions regarding installation of any new software.
I hope this helps anyone who may have run into the same problem.
Before attempting to flash anything, confirm the bootloader on your phone. An easy way to determine if the bootloader is 4.3 or newer, boot into download mode. If you see anything about warranty bit, your phone has at least a 4.3 bootloader and no attempts should be made to flash anything from sammobile.com.
If you have a 4.3 or newer bootloader, I recommend flashing a custom recovery such as TWRP, and then flashing a stock ROM from recovery.
First off, thank you for the reply audit!
Now I have officially rooted my phone using CF-Autoroot and have installed TWRP. I have also confirmed that the bootloader is at least 4.3 because it does show the warranty bit.
Which of the stock roms are compatible with this bootloader?
Do you want to stay on a stock ROM? If not, you could flash a custom ROM such as cm12.1 using TWRP. Once you have flashed a custom ROM, you can look under settings to determine the baseband on the phone which is another clue as to which bootloader is on your phone.

Just to be clear, cm12.1 is the cyanogenMod nightly?
Yup. If you flash it, your baseband may be unknown which tells me you are probably not running a 4.4.2 bootloader and modem.

CM12.1 won't have an md5 file. You're trying to install cm12.1 for the d2att or d2lte? You're running the latest TWRP which I believe is 2.8.7.0? or 2.8.7.1?

"all i can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
I'm pretty sure that CM de-unified the variants for CM 12.
From: https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/D2lte_Info
Note: Unified device
Between the release of CM 11 M3 and CM11 M12, all Qualcomm-based variants of this device were merged into a single build: d2lte. The device information pages for the individual variants should be used to reference any device-specific unlock instructions, download recoveries, to build CM 10.2, or to install CM 12.1: d2att, d2cri, d2mtr, d2spr, d2tmo, d2usc, d2vzw.

For d2att and running 2.8.7.0 for TWRP.
You should be good then.
The file should be left unzipped/unrared when using it right? I'm using it as such but it keeps returning the same error message saying that it won't install it.
Yes, leave it zipped. What is the TWRP error message?
The error log:
detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/platform msm_sdcc.1/byname system.
Can't install this package on top of incompatible data.
Please try another package or run a factory reset

Error flashing zip '/sdcard/Download/cm-12.120150913-NIGHTLY-D2att.zip
Weird, did you do a full wipe before trying to install?
Can't believe it was that simple. I thought I had already made the wipe when I did it with the original recovery but making a second wipe through TWRP actually helped make it happen. I finally got through and have full access to my phone.
Unfortunately, the cell service doesn't seem to work but I'm guessing that I need to do more for the set up?
Edit: Not recognizing the sim card for some reason
Sounds like you need to update the bootloader and modem to the older KK version which I think is ne4.
Sorry for the late reply I've been busy the past week. I'm guessing the modem won't work without the proper bootloader? I've tried flashing the latest and original modem from the Modem list (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898). While they installed successfully I still don't get a signal.
I was worried which bootloader to take because it may lead to bricking. Which one are you referring to and are they in the Bootloader updates topic here? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2321310)

Clicked the link and saw it was a note 5 Rom. What can I say, I was excited!

Oh I'm setting everything up right now for the flash! I'm so excited. Once I realized you linked to a note 5 Rom most of my questions got answered. My favorite part, the kernel was posted on my bday.
i tried wiping and clearing cache then flashing the rom and the kernel. nothing actually happens to my phone. i end up on the same home screen and apps i had installed on moar 5.1.1 with note 5 patch.
any ideas why wiping my phone doesnt work on twrp 3.0.0.0?

Update your TWRP.
https://dl.twrp.me/zenltespr/
yea I tried doing that with Odin and it would freeze mid way. I also tried flashing a twrp update zip file on twrp and that didn't work either.
you think I should flash with flash fire?
bricked my phone by trying to flash newer version of twrp with twrp manager
been trying to flash unbrick tar and pit file to get back up and running but its not working.
any help is much appreciated
fixed the brick by flashing new recovery in Odin, now on 3.0.2. still can't get the phone to wipe out install new rom and kernel

Have you checked for root with root checker? I have lost root access a few times in the past?
yea I just checked with root checker and I have root access.
I've never had this happen to me... weird
anything else you can think of?

Last thing I can think of is when opening TWRP the first time. It asks if you want to make the system 'read only'. Did you select No?
I never got that message when I flashed twrp 3.0.2 to unblock... how do I make it show up?

Not sure. You can click mount and see what is mounted. I am not sure that will work. I am not sure exactly what you are trying to wipe, but mount the items you are attempting to wipe and make sure the read-only is unchecked.
Try this:
Check to see if oem is checked
Re-root via root tar/odin
twrp 3.0.0.1 from edge files post in general
Backup stock
Wipe
Flash Moar
Don't reboot
Flash skyhigh kernel
Flash xposed(don't have to)
Reboot
Allow it to boot loop a couple time (from sky kernel)
Give 5-10 minutes to boot
I just did it with no issues and I've personally had more luck with 3.0.0.1 than any of the others.
heres my issue...twrp doesnt do anything for me (all versions) whether i wipe or install
so i used flashfire to flash the rom and the kernel at once and it finally displayed aroma installer (wouldnt get that in twrp)
however, after it in stalled i got stuck on boot screen
the only fix for this was flashing unbrick aok3 tar file which brought me to stock
i put on twrp as a recovery again starting fresh unrooted and it still doesnt respond to any of my commands
i think i will try flash fire on stock one more time and see what happens since its the only thing that is responding

Your on Lp bootloader that's your issue.
Download Marshmallow tar from the general post I made for rooting Bpg1.
Flash tar and follow post.
twrp. 3.0.x.x is more for marshmallow. You need to be on 6.0.1 not 5.1.1.
Don't use fireflash on this device.
Fireflash is more for phones with locked bootloaders like Verizon s4 on the of1 update.
Fireflash isn't really up to date with our phone and could easily brick your device.
