Flash another recovery like TWRP or philz touch. Always use latest recoveries and wipe system,cache,data and dalvik before flashing rom.

Flashed TWRP and it solved the problem. Anyways thank you for the suggestion

what is your firmware sir?? maybe its about your firmware that the rom is compatible with so that it wont stuck on samsung logo or bootloop if you have that firmware like DXKL2 and DXLC1
Here you go CWM by madteam:
http://www.mediafire.com/?n3x18su3495fr8l
Also do remember to data wipe and cache wipe from both stock and CWM recoveries before installing any rom..If the ROM still doesnt flash ..use the stock rom package from dokys thread in android development and re-flash..that must fix the issue..

[Q] CM10 flashing, first time question here

Hi, so I'm trying to make this quick so that i can install CM10 tonight...
so I rooted my phone tonight, did everything right and stuff, but I went to go download the CM10 nightly build for my phone which is the Rogers (Canadian version). So I download the d2att version, did a backup, wiped everything and I tried installing it using CWM-Based recovery v5.5.0.4. But when I tried install it gave me status 7 aborted. I installed cwm using odin3 v1.85, what am I doing wrong, am I trying to install the wrong version? Sorry if this is a noob question but I'm new to this stuff :/
thanks for any help
Can anyone explain to me how I can update CWM? I downloaded the latest img from their website, but idk how to install it...I'm really confused...and I really need help :crying:
Go look at QBKing77 videos on YouTube or QBKing77.com he has the best videos in my opinion and installing CM10 and CWM. I am on CM10.1 without any problems.
hmm, did you use the v5 recovery? Did it work, because the version i had was cwm 5.5 and I couldn't update because of system 7 error, which is because the CWM version was too old.
If possible, could you link me the one you used?
Ok..so now I installed TWRP and I tried flashing CM10 it still didnt work and gave me status 7 error and it says:
assert failed: getpro ("ro.product.device")
E: Error in /sdcard/cm- 10.....d2att.zip
Is this because with goomanager i installed it for the d2can version and now I can't install the d2att even though thats the only version i can use? goomanager only lets me get d2can...and when I try to install the never cwm recover img using android terminal it keeps giving me No such file or directory.
Can anybody help me with this...

have you tried flashing another ROM, like an-aosp or aokp-based one? If you followed their instructions, it may help you determine whether it was a bad download or something s more specific to your device. just throwing this one out there....

If you want to flash a CM ROM you will need to be on the most current d2att recovery for either CWR or TWRP. If you were getting a status 7 error, I'm going to assume that you have a d2can phone.. make sure you have a d2att recovery and you'll be able to flash anything. ROM Manager will let you install CWR or Goo Manager will let you install TWRP (which is what I use).

I tried using TWRP but when I installed it through GooManager it installed the d2can version so I couldn't install CM10. Unless there is a way to manually select which TWRP version to install through GooManager, then I'm more or less stuck on CWM.
edit: Just got TWRP for d2att installed so now I can flash whatever I want, man TWRP seems a lot better than CWM!

[Q] NuSenseOne ROM install not working.

I tried to install the ROM from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2631840
I'm running a ROM based off stock 4.3 for the Verizon HTC One, version 2.10.605.1 of the ROM on this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2485319
My my baseband is 1.12.41.1112_2.
I'm using Clockworkmod Recovery version 6.0.4.7, I wiped the Dalvik, data, system, and cache then tried to install the zip I had on the phone twice and both times I got this error:
format () expects 5 args, got 4
E:Error in /data/media/0/NuSenseONE-KitKat-m7vzw-s55-stock_RC1.0_020614.zip.
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I also tried using adb sideload and got this:
* failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)' *
I used adb sideload for the ROM I'm currently on and my device is recognized when I use adb devices to check. The sideload gets to 100% then gives that message.
I was hoping to post straight to that first thread but since I'm a new member I was hoping somebody could help out? I already searched the thread for the ROM I'm installing and didn't find anything that helps me. Thanks!

Could be wrong...but, it could be a bad download.

Try flashing twrp recovery.
As brholt6 mentioned, it sounds like a bad download. Redownload it and check the md5 before flashing again. If it still fails you should try what DavidHawk62 suggested and try TWRP. I've been using TWRP to flash since I got my One and have had zero problems. I'm currently on NuSense.

I redownloaded straight to my phone and tried it, redownloaded to my computer and tried adb again, but I still get the same error.
May just do what cmlusco and Crawshayi suggested and try TWRP.
Its not a bad download. Status 7 refers to an invalid argument in the zips update-script. It tells you the error is "format () expects 5 args, got 4". This means that in the update-script of the zip, it is calling to format a partition but was not given all the arguments needed to do so. It has to do with being on a newer recovery. You are probably going to find a lot of zips will fail with this error, while on your current recovery. The same issue happened when twrp was released. As i said flash twrp recovery and flash the zip thru it. Or try this one on your current recovery, where i modified it to have the correct arguments. DELETED

You need the latest recovery for KitKat.
The ROM installs fine as is.

Use fastboot commands to flash it. There should be instructions in the recovery thread.

Trouble flashing custom rom on T999L

I had no problems rooting my s3 and putting custom recovery but when I attempt to flash either cyanogenmod or resurrection remix I get the status error 7. Then if I delete the Assert portion I either get status 6 error or it goes into a boot loop and I have to reinstall stock again with odin. I have also downloaded notepad++ as recommended to no avail.
You need to be on at least MD5 bootloader/firmware.

I just looked on the firmware I flashed on my phone whenever it wouldn't boot and it is md5.
So are you saying you tried to flash MD5 and it would not boot? What were you running before flashing? Did you factory reset?

I have tried multiple roms and sometimes got error 7 sometimes error 6 and sometimes unable to boot, at which point I would then flash the stock firmware with odin on it and then it would work again, but I want to be able to put a firmware with kitkat on it.
Youd probably be best off updating to 4.3 firmware if you haven't already. If you're out of warranty there is little reason not to update imo.
Then use twrp 2.7.0.0 for your recovery. Some have had recent problems flashing with cwm.
If you still have issues, let us know exactly what steps you followed and exactly what you were trying to flash.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
It came with 4.3, that's not the issue, I have tried both twrp and cwm to flash a cyanogenmod kitkat rom and I get the status error 7 at first, if I do what is said to get rid of that and delete the lines at the start then it gets a status error 6. At which point it no longer boots then I need to flash it back to the stock firmware.
Did you try the latest version of either Recoveries ? If its not the latest version you'd get error.
With the 4.3 firmware, you do not have to remove any Assert Lines from the updater Script. Just in case go back to the last stable release of CM 11.
27a
Just updated to a newer cwm to no avail, still getting status 7 error.
What CWM Version is that ?
6.0.4.5
Please post the Recovery Log. Its present in /cache/recovery

You need a Root Explorer with Root access. Remount System as R/W in your Root Explorer.
Finally was able to do it I flashed a d2lte rom instead of a d2tmo rom.
