Hi Everyone,
I just rooted my friend's Note and I'm attempting to flash the latest CM10 nightly. I'm using the CWM-based Touch Recovery v5.5.0.4. Every attempt to flash CM10 has lead to the (status 7) error, in which the assert has failed. I've attempted to remove the assert from the script and the installation is simply aborted in CWM. (I feel like doing this is more of a work-around then a fix though, since I'd potentially have to do it every time I flash a new CM rom). Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if there is a fix out there. I've done a good amount of searching and haven't found anything.
Thanks in advance.
Update.
Sounds like an outdated recovery to me

Installed ROM manager. Update recovery, retry

Thanks everyone. I actually tried using ROMManager and it wasn't flashing the update for me. Key part I didn't explain :-/ Anyhow, I found the newest CWM and flashed the .img through terminal. Problem solved.
Thanks!
I had problems with this too I had to download the twrp kernel and then it worked fine.

Last year over in the inspire threads,, we affectionately began to call it rom "mangler"..
Koush did okay, but the turning point for me, was buying the touch version, then trying to get the app to flash the recovery back to the device.
It shows the I717 as unsupported, yet the CWM website has it.
But every time I try to download it ...I get garbled jibberish..
Hence TWRP ...version 2.3.2.3...and it's flawless
I think koush likes the money..
He has never replied to one pm or email I've sent ....g
Have to agree that twrp is the awesome choice. I've had cwm fail more than once to restore for me. Twrp is faster and drains the battery less. And as a shameless self promotion .. My American twrp theme is so sexy .. You'll want to go into recovery everyday.

I have a MoPho with unlocked bootloader running 2.3.4 and everytime I try to flash back to my saved stock backup from any custom rom I keep getting an "error while flashing boot image" I tried to do an advanced restore and picked the files one at a time but I keep getting the same result. Can someone please help, thank you in advance...

as mentioned previously the ROM Manager one DOES NOT WORK. 5.0.2.8 DOES NOT WORK! you NEED to user Jokers, TWRP or the 5.0.2.7-photon3 recoveries ONLY. you can find the working recoveries on my site. choose which one suits you best! don't use Jokers V4 because it won't flash google apps properly.

I am running cm7, or rather was running cm7 coz now my phone is stuck in the boot loop limbo. Kept getting the error "com.android.phone stopped working" and I was unable to make or receive calls all day. So I thought relocking and unlocking the bootloader would do the trick but now I'm stuck on a rock and a hard place. Sssoooooo, do you have any tricks up your sleeves I could use, I would really appreciate it...
I've been able to run a hand full of fastboot commands to bring my phone back out of limbo, I am past the boot image and able to activate with the sprint network. Thank you all who took the liberty of viewing my post, I appreciate the help...

hmmm... CDMA user? or GSM? i remember that bug being around in the very early builds of CM7. are you on the latest nightly or stable release?
i might also recommend changing some build prop info (which could be causing this?) to make sure it tells the radio to operate in the correct mode. gsm or cdma. if you look for ro.telophony.default_network=? the ? should be a 4 for CDMA or a 7 for GSM. change to your liking. then reboot. this was an issue in CM9 for the longest time and this is how it was resolved. it's possible it could be the same for CM7.
another option is to of course start over. wipe the cache,data,system partitions, possibly even twice. flash cm7. twice to be safe. then gapps. twice to be safe. then give it another shot.
other than that it might be a bad download or a bad build. so try another if it doesn't work. hope this helps you!
CDMA user, for now I am able to have my phone back on, but I will probably steer away from CM7 AND perhaps try CM10. All I keep finding is an unofficial release, is this the only one there is?

there will never be any officials releases unless somehow Motorola decides they want to give us drivers/source for ICS or JB. which is never. unless we get a leak.
Hello fellow Touchpad enthusiasts,
I happened to see TWRP has a version 2.4 available to us - http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/tenderloin
I saw it posted in other device forums, but not ours so thought I'd share the news.
About all I can tell you is it installed without any major problems. Nothing else tested other than boot into it and reboot to CM 10. I just moved ver 2.3 and copy/renamed 2.4 into same directory. Only problem encountered was old ver permissions were messed up so had to mess around before I was able to move the old ver. That and I reset permission on new ver to match - forget what I modeled it after - the other recovery uImage since I have them both installed.
As always ymmv.

It would be easier for you to install from goo manager, just tap install openrecoveryscript and your done.

I read about incompatibility problems between TWRP 2.4.3.0 and TouchPad.
But does anybody know what about the new twrp-2.4.4.0-tenderloin?
Please fulfill:
TWRP v.________ and ROM ToolBox
CWM v._________ and GooManager
Edit:
Above is false. You should use ...
... TWRP with GooManager and ...
... CWM with ROM ToolBox!
I will stick with CWM. Seems stable enough, it works as it should, and I don't mind to scroll through using my volume rocker.

I updated to 2.4.4 but haven't tested yet, but lots of people were having issues on the Nexus 4 on 2.4.3.0 and after the update nobody has any problems. I know the touchpad is a different animal but i bet it works now. No way I'm ever going back to cwm. Twrp has the best setup & all the right features.
Everytime I tried to flash a zip for a bug fix (headphone detection glitch, etc) it would fail in TWRP. Every time. So I went back to CWM. Goomanager is completely unreliable in regards to finding rom updates, etc.

Are you using the latest version? Twrp is working perfectly for me.
Update:
I take my message back. I backed up, did a factory reset, restored my backup, & everything is there except it twrp didn't restore my app data nor my system settings data.
Update:
I just flashed shumash's new build with success. So flashing in twrp is now working fine for me. Going to have to investigate why my restore didn't fully work on my previous post.
Is anybody else using the latest Twrp?
New twrp 2.5 out. Haven't tested it out yet. But it looks like they fixed the restore issues.

Nice! Let us know how it goes for you. I had a few issues with 2.4.4 but my last couple backups and restores worked great. Thanks for letting us know!
And it don't work. Its worse. It restored 5 apps out off 250... It booted though. But i also had a cwm backup done right before so its all good.

Hm I was using TWRP but I ran into some trouble flashing some roms and then switched to Philz's Touch CWM, and its awesome. It also have OpenScript support, so I can flash using GooManager like with TWRP. So far its been great. Only features I miss from TWRP is the slide to confirm and the "lock" feature that they implemented the last update.

Personally prefer Goomanager and the TWRP recovery script that comes with it
Goomanager
Have a look at this thread with the recovery screen clips
Everyone has their personal choice though
Using TWRP for backup and restore, Phliz for flash

CWM/CWM touch is good for beginners Easy to install using ROM manager and does its job, however in a minute you will be probably looking more functionality and flash TWRP.
CWM.......simple, does what it says on the tin, can't see any need for many extra functions

I agree! CWM! Used the 4ext recovery for some while, but went back to CWM...
Any recovery but i would recommend CWM easy to use and plain. Don't use CWM touch iit has reported a load of problems when trying to restore backups (unable to restore /data) and you might have to start from scratch.
Sv: Which recovery
CWM Touch FTW!

I had some issues with various roms for unknown reasons, so I kept trying out new roms. Well the problem persisted, and as I was attempting to flash a new Rom, recovery just kind of failed. Whenever I attempt to enter recovery, a titled triangle with and exclamation mark and a droid figure pop up and I have to do a battery wipe. My phone still starts and runs, but I'm currently stuck on a problematic rom with no way of getting to recovery. I'm fairly new to all of this so I have no idea what's happening and I'm ultimately scared of attempting anything and messing up more. So any and all suggestions are beyond welcome.

So just install cwm multiple times..? Like install it, turn phone on, then install again if problem persists or isn't fixed immediately?
You're looking for some magical recipe that will 100% surely fix your phone. There isn't one. You will just have to play and be creative. You can report back here for more advice if needed.

Like what ravilov mentioned, its more of a trial and error process and not a 100% quick fix. Not having a computer will make things much more difficult.
I'm not looking for a magic easy route, (though it'd be nice if there was one), I'm just asking for literally any advice on the situation.
Use the android sdk 'fastboot' command to push recovery to the device via USB. This should solve your issue with a borked recovery partition.

No need for touch. If you ever damage your screen, touch recovery will make it impossible to use. Once you've flashed it with rom manager, you can download th3bill's recovery for Atrix and install over the top of it.

Whenever my phone dies, it boots to recovery or better known, cwm when I plug it in. Not sure why, I don't mind it. But I'm wondering why, I have the latest touch recovery from cwm. And I do want to switch to 4ext but I have a question.
1. Can it flash any rom that cwm can flash?
Thanks guys.

4ext can flash every rom that CWM can and then some.
The reason your phone turns on like that is because you are using CWM Recovery.
But I've used it before. It didn't used to do this until I flashed touch or because ics. I updated and rooted so not sure.
Is 4ext really worth it?
Is it really worth putting the effort into it?
I need to flash a radio and it says 4ext recommended.

It doesn't require much effort and is well worth it yes.
CWM is garbage and it is a bug in the Touch version that does it.
Has nothing to do with rooting the phone.
You never had CWM before you rooted and non touch versions didn't have the bug.
It's actually about as painless as can be to switch to 4ext and is miles better in every way.
Yes you need to flash new radios for the ICS roms.
Read the Op in my thread like I said in the PM and you will find it is all very simple to do and well worth the short time it takes to do. Or not.
Your call, but you have been told many times to ditch CWM and I pretty much require it or TWRP for my roms which are currently the only recent ones you will even find for the Bolt.
Install the free app I linked you before and flash the recovery, takes maybe 3 minutes.
Thank you. Your the only one who told me if it was better. I'm switching now. And true, don't think any Better roms are going to come out.
