Hi guys,
I have been successfully flashing loads of roms and I do have experience in this regard.I had fxp137 so I wanted to update it to fxp 145 since that has camera preview working.But when I tried to flash it gave me status 7 assert failed error.I searched around the forums and tried their fixes but to no avail.There was one telling me to remove 3 lines from updater-status file in meta-inf folder.I tried that,now it doesnt give status 7 error.But now it gives status 6 error.Is this problem because I accidentally formatted /system.
Please help

First of all - did you flash kernel from .zip? If yes - then just flash one of stock FWs and after that reflash kernel and CM

I am not new to android rooting and flashing and stuff but recently when I tried to make a custom ROM, when I try to flash it I get error.
Installation aborted. Error (status 7)

I know it is caused because of some errors in the META-INF folder but how do I fix this? I tried searching on Google too but all I found was useless posts and good for nothing sites.
I have SGP311 4.2.2 stock rooted with this kernel and regularly I am trying to install varius custom ROMS but I am always getting Error Status 7 and flashing stops. The only way to overcome this issue is to install first the boot.img from the ROM that I am going to install and then through the Recovery of the new boot.img I can install the custom ROM without errors.
I know this is not a normal behaviour and I am trying to figure out what's wrong. I tried to edit updater-script by removing all the getprop lines but then I got the same error when the set_perm command is executed.
Could you help me ?
Thanks!
i had the same issue

i had the same issue while i was flashing cyanogen mod 10.1.3 , any ways i kept trying, i still recieved an error
afterwards i tried to download the rom again and then i placed it into my internal sd storage, after soo many tries, i finally got it working
maybe its the issue with your zip file, try downloading it again, place it into your internal storage, not external, then flash it

Hi and thank you for the reply.
I tried to install from the internal flash though I didn't believe that the result would be different and I had the message (set_perm Error Status 7). It's very strange that no other users mentiong this problem. I am thinking maybe it's something with my stock ROM or some other setting.

i think you have mentioned that you flashed the boot.img before you tried flashing the rom, i would recommend to flash the right boot.img again from the rom, this is the most common issue when u get status 7 error,
other wise, backup all of your important data, return to stock by using flash tool / factory data reset, root again and then flash the boot.img and then flash the rom
thats what i do when im desperate for the rom :laugh:
Hi ! I'm new in xdadevelopers but when i got a problem i come always here ( i'm italian i can't speak so good the english )

Hey,
I got a problem with my S2g. I'm currently on Android 4.1.2, with cwm 6 and blazing v-5 kernel. Both were flashed per odin and work fine. However I can't flash a custom rom. Every time I try it I'll get a Status 7 error. I've already tried 4 different ROMs and I'm really annoyed by now. I also tried to factory reset the phone before I flash the ROM, but it didn't make any difference. I also tried deleting the assert command in the updater-script file but somehow my changes in the file won't be saved.
If anyone could help me I would be really thankful!

I've just tried this, didn't work also. I even had to flash the recovery and the kernel again after trying to flash the file in the link, because the phone wouldn't boot normal or in recovery mode.

Try using philz recovery on your phone. It should flash most ROMs fine.

I just did, I still get the Status 7 error. I tried to flash the cm 12.1 and the cm 13.0 nightly rom. I also tried deleting the assert command in the updater-script file but it still won't work. There was no Status 7 error but it still said "Installation aborted".
Does anyone else got an idea how to fix this?

I used this Kernel, I just noticed, that it's only compatible with Android 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3.
I then tried to install the DorimanX Kernel for LP and MM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-dorimanx-lp-5-x-x-t3145879) but my phone stucks at the boot screen.

Apologies, I only just noticed you have a i9100g, not a i9100. You can't just flash i9100 kernels as they simply won't work!
You can follow the guide in the CM13 OP here:
