I am Running Kernel Version

Can you try and flash a newer Siyah?(3.5.2.)
If it doesnt work in CWM, try with Odin.
And when you're saying which kernel you're using, you dont need to write all that cryptic mumbo-jumbo. Siyah 3.2.4. is enough.

Hi Guys,
Ok I have tryed more than 2 roms all have same error.
I have updated Kernal to the latest version and all went ok.
Once kernal updated I still had the same problem.
Any more help would be great thanks
IAN (UK)
I have solved it .
The answare is to down load the rom on windows 7 not Ubuntu as Ubuntu does a mess up with access rights.
Many thanks for all your help guys.

How can I install on my Samsung Galaxy S2 custom ROMs?

I want the custom Rome by Turkbey V30. 3
Go to the Turkbey thread in the development section of the forum, download the rom & follow the install instructions. Simple.
Where are the the install instructions?
Read me, me and me before you do anything, then you will understand how to flash roms, and will hopefully avoid bricking your phone.
Backup your EFS with ktool before you flash a custom rom, but after you root.

No not really but you would do better to read the FAQS and Guides rather than flash without a single idea of what how or why .

Try to download another rom maybe your rom is broken or you downloaded the wrong file.

What rom are you trying to flash? Status 7 error is often because you have an incompatible recovery. Try a newer version such as from here

Hi. I think is because SpeedmodKernel doesn't support JB.
You can try flash a differnt kernel like this one or install some ICS based ROM.

Thank you!
But this Error occurs even when I try to install CM7 (which isn't based on JB as far as I know). It simply occurs at every .zip I try to install!

Download siyah fom gokhanmoral' s homepage. Siyah v5.0.1 (v6beta 4 will boot only leaked lsj version).
CWM zip version and put it to external sd and flash it in cwm recovery.
I just flash it and have no issues at all.

It will also boot LS8 based roms. I'm using it with Disaster ROM v.8
Then it's better to flash Dorimanx.
It has ICS & JB support and from what I read on forum is very good kernel. Will try it in near future.

is there anything with you to explain the problem exactly mate? error 6 is not something i've heard about till now.
A guess either a bad download or user error .
Not enough information posted so its a guess .
Did you costumize/edited or removed/added files on the ROM?

Your problem is that you don't have a custom recovery like cwm. For installing custom rom, and for the case of 4.4 you need cwm 6.0.4.4!
Try this.
Update CWM to version 6.0.4.5. Alternatively, use PhilZ Touch by Phil3759. His link is...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002953
Latest version is 6.00.8
Then get Gapps (for 4.4) from here...

Hope it helps.
Well.. I have a problem that is: When I try to get the CM11 with CWM i got Error (Status 7) but managed to fix it by deleting the very first line in the updater-script.
Now I start to get Error (Status 6) and I don't know why.
I have the lastest Recovery and Im trying to flash the lastest SNAPSHOT edition of CM11.
Thanks in advance.

Status 7 is normally caused by the updater script and can be solved by using latest cwm recovery or try Twrp or PhilZ recovery.

Okay, thanks. I thought about using TWRP, but PhilZ Recovery.. I'll try it.
Just fixed my phone because I bricked it again and I literally have no idea how. (Most probably one of the common S3 bugs)
And about the CWM version, I had the lastest one but as I said above, I'll try the other 2.
Nevermind, it gives me the Status 7 on PhilZ too..

OK lol just checking give twrp a try and also look at this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302599 <<
"Noob friendly ways.." That gave me a good chuckle..
Well, Ill try TWRP tomorrow. Ill let you know if it worked. Anyway, Ive done the deletion of "assert();",didnt work, im sure its the right version and its even the Snapshot edition so even less chances its from them.
No better.. Ive checked and I have the codename for it as "m0", I had the lastest versions of these Recoveries and the right versions for CM11 and Hypermax, still no clue why it doesnt work..
Ill reinstall my PC and Ill try the Windows Installer for CM11 maybe it'll work, too bad its a hassle to try that installer on XP (since Im using a pretty old laptop with XP and Linux atm)
Ill let u know about everything releated to this since there might be others with the same problem.
This was the second time I tried flashing a ROM but I get to learn things fast since Im very experienced with IT releated stuff
tnx for info

Well, Error 7 is basicly to protect you from flshing the wrong software (for ex. for wrong phone model), have you tried different cm based ROMs (cyanogen mod 14 by modpunk) if you cant install them either it's something wrong with your recovery. If you haven't try it yet, you may flash it again by odin.
