Can't flash any ROMs - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Totally new issue now...every ROM I try to flash, I get an error when installing the zip in CWM saying something along the lines of
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "aries" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "aries" || getprop("ro.product.board") == "aries" || getprop("ro.product.device")) == "fascinate"
And continues to repeat that pattern of the first three using "fascinate", "fascinatemtd" and "SCH-I500"
What's the deal?

a little more information would be helpful... what rom were you currently on and what rom are you trying to flash? Also what version of cwm are you using?

Personally, i strongly dislike CWM recovery. I recommend using Odin or Heimdall instead. They are a lot more straight forward. I tried to install CWM recovery and it was just a huge mess. Although I've never had a problem with odin

Huh? The majority of roms out there need cwm to flash. You odin the appropiate recovery, three finger into cwm, wipe all three, then flash the zip. Thats how most roms work unless they are tar'd up, then you can flash in odin, but only a few are that way... pwgb, geewiz, and stock rom packages are odin compatible.

I had the same issue when trying to update my wife's phone today. Turned out I just needed to run an updated clockwork mod recovery.

[Q] Error after installing CM9 ROM

Hi,
I tried installed ROM of CM9 from FXP116 version and I found the error message below when i installed the ROM from recovery mode. Any idea of this?
Installing update...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "nozomi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "nozomi"
E:Error in /sdcard/FXP116-update-cm-9.0.0-RC0-nozomi-UNOFFICIAL-signed.zip
(Status 7)
Installtion aborted
No files found.
Could anybody please suggest how to fix this? Now I couldn't boot in normal mode either.
Thanks.
Isnt it the case that there are no working roms atm?
You've broken your own system now so you need to reflash .73.
How to re-flash from the recovery mode now?
I have flashed with the recovery image and now struck in the recovery mode. Thanks.
ED1: I managed to resolve this already. Thanks

[HELP] Installation aborted

First of all, i searched but nothing close to mine..
i tried flashing paranoid android yesterday to try the rom and this came:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxys2" || getprop ("ro.build.product") == "galaxys2" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "galaxys2" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9100" and so on...... getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9100M" and so on.......... getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9100T" and so on.........
E:Error in emmc/zzzips/Modem......................
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
i factory reset and it worked..
i reverted back to my backup and this day i tried changing my modem and again (status 7) appeared again in which i cant flash the modem..
any solutions guys?
im on rootbox ics v1.7 and siyah v4.0
So no one else experienced this or have a clue??
Are you sure the ROM you downloaded is for your own device, the GT-I9100, and not for any other variant?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
The messages he is getting show that the install is checking to make sure it is an i9100, or an i9100 variant that is not the i9100G.
OP, are you sure you have an i9100 device?
yep im very sure..
first i tried flashing paranoid android v1.97 and then that message came for the first time..
i tried factory reset in recovery and i was able to flash paranoid android..
after which i restored my backup of rootbox v1.7 with siyah v4...
as usual all is good until the next morning in which i try to flash a different modem and the message came out again.. i tried flashing other modems too and it aborted..
and yes im very sure what i flash is for gt-i9100 and i alwasy double check it coz i dont have money to buy new phone or repair it if brick so im very careful..

Status 7 error code?

Hey, guys. I'm one of the unfortunate lads that isn't able to unlock his bootloader. So I thought I'd give MIUI a try (2.8.10) since it claims to be able to flash on to lockedBL through CWM. So the problem is this, once the phone is rooted and in android 4.0.4 (for the right kernel) I go to CWM and follow the steps which should allow me to flash the rom (wiping cache, data, system etc.). However, the problem is this error right here,
"asset failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT26i" | | getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT26i"
E: error in /sdcard/miuiandroid_LT26i-2.8.10.zip (status 7)
Installation aborted
No matter what I try, nothing gets rid of this error code. No one else is having this issue are they? I'm sick fed up of stock 4.0 on Sony, not optimised enough. Need a custom rom, especially since my bootloader is locked.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Can you install another cwm or it's the only recovery available for locked BL???
The problem is that the update script is made for another cwm.

you can try 2 things:
1. in the CWM, choose mount -> format /system (careful) and then try flashing the rom or
2. open the zip file using 7zip, navigate to \META-INF\com\google\android\ folder edit "updater-script". remove assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT26i" | | getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT26i" . You must use notepad++ for this

I already tried your first suggestion and it failed on me horribly ha! So I guess I must have to try stage two thanks <3
edit: Right so I did your second suggestion and i had a different outcome, just simply says 'Installation aborted'. Any more ideas. I cant find another 'Locked Booloader' recovery.

I replaced update-script from older version of miui and it work for me ...
I had the same problem today after unsuccessfully trying to install CM 9.0.
Luckily I had the SSpeed Kernel and KA ROM on the internal storage, so after doing a wipe and cleanup dalvik, I was able to flash the Kernel and then the ROM

Actually i successfully completed the process bydoing the following:
i flashed the jb stock rom for xperia p again...
unlocked the bootloader again,
then copied the rom.zip & gapps.zip to sdcard,
flashed cwm v6.0.2.8 (provided with the rom),
flashed the zip files
& voila! everything worked fine....
though i still don't understand why it didn't install first 'coz, i followed the procedure to edit the 'updater-script' to the word....but nothing happened
guess i managed to get lucky a bit!
by now i've successfully flashed & tried the following roms:
FXP233 (cm10) ["THE BEST ON THE LIST"]
Pac man rom(based on cm10.1, pa, aokp) ["Buggy, can't install purchased apps, problems in installing apps on sdcard, bluetooth doesn't work, but overall customization, performance is pretty good, though i would've been glad if the devs had included some sort of inbuilt battery saver mode, like the battery stamina in stock jb roms for 2012(some models) & 2013 xperia series)
Revolution v33.4 (lagged a lot on my phone, hope someone else had a better time using this one)
Good for you! You have to be careful when dealing with scripts, its very easy to insert a space or forget to close quotes and it doesn't work. Format could have been amend instead of edify but that's provably not likely.

[Q] Rebooting when flashing in CWM recovery

Any time I try to flash any rom from recovery, it reboots in 4.0.1.0. However in 2.5.x and such I get something similar to this:

I grabbed the no assert recovery and it reboots.

1) Extract the contents you will get 3 things in it .... boot.img (file) , system(folder) , meta-inf (folder)
2) Leaving the boot.img out repack the other two folders (system,meta-inf)
3) fastboot the boot.img file via fastboot by this command "fast boot flash boot boot.img" without quotes
4) then place the new packed zip file
The one without the boot image
5) try flashing it
6) factory reset and wipe delvik cache and reboot
Hope this will solve the problem

it's because you are in stock kernel with recovery.

It is quite frustrating that you do not use tge SEARCH option in XDA. As you can see, there is ALREADY multiple threads about this so you WAIT for an answer in one of them.
