Pretty sure md5 mismatch.
Status 7 means you're trying to apply a ROM that's not for your device.
I was experienced that error when I was trying to flash a random roms through cwm.
Try downloading the rom again or update CWM. You may also toogle signature verification in recovery, if you have that option.
At the end: you can flash the rom with Odin, just convert the zip to tar.

I'm currently running SHOStock ICS ROM and I want to change it, but every time I try to flash the CM9 ROM in recovery mode, I get an error-
Installation aborted (Status 7). The first time it happened was after I installed the shostock rom (I had the cm9 before and had no problems installing it).
I tried to update CWM through ROM Manager, but it didn't solve the problem.
What can I do to fix it? I searched the forum but didn't find a solution..
Im not sure exactly how to fix that but I've always read that we should avoid Rom Manager on the i777. You might want to sheck the threads about Rom manager errors. I've flashed every rom out there and never used rom manager and never had any problems.
I used rom manager only to update CWM. I haven't installed any rom with rom manager.
last time i found that error with CM9 was because of the build.prop issue. Our phones run i9100 based ROM's alot, there's a line in the updaterscript that looks for phone model, must remove that **** outta there.
And i must say that CM9 sucks if they still have not addressed this well known issue.
Just flash AOKP.
O and, un install ROM manager, its for idiots.
Does this ROM fully support hebrew? (including menus)

Good question. I would say go ask in the AOKP thread, but you don't have enough posts to do that yet...I'll go ask for you. You can just go read the replies to my post.
Problem solved. I flashed AOKP and it worked (no error) ,but after that I flashed CM9 back (more comfortable for me), works perfect. Thanks for the help.
Hi I'm currently on the root box ROM with the siya kernal and wanted to flash a different one but no matter what I do I get an error before unloading the package. I came across this problem before and the solution was to just reflash aokp. I believe the logic was, siya was not compatable to open the package or something and needed cwm. However I can't find a flashable zip of cwm default kernal and I do not have a computer to access for Odin at the moment. Someone please, point me in the right direction...

I would use Heimdall to flash if possable also i would flash Siyah's new kernel also check the md5 to verify the rom you are trying to flash sometimes during download things get goofed after that make sure you wipe everything data/cache/dalvik and then try flashing your rom
You're trying to say yer getting the status 7 error. I think that's what I've gathered. Just do the same thing you did before, if u happen to have Tasks 7.3 version available flash that. It's a build. Prop problem with your phone showing a different model number than i777 because you are /were on a ported rom with i9100 showing as the model number. Flashing this version of tasks rom sets your build. Prop back to i777. U could actually use any rom that is based on i777 firmware although they may have scripts to check if your current build. Prop is i777 or not and may not let u flash it. The 7.3 version of tasks AOKP has those script asserts removed and it doesn't check what yer running which makes it great for situations like this. U can download tasks 7.3 AOKP by googling dev.host task AOKP I think. I haven't tried but someone said it's still up there. Or I could be completely wrong and status 7 error isn't what yer getting. In which case ignore this wall of text and go about your day. Lol,

Why you keep stating this garbage? its caused by build.prop.
flashing from CWM 5.xxx to 6.xxx is not a problem.

Are you telling me that flashing the stock CM kernel wont solve the problem? Are you sure?
The Instalation checks the build.prop to know if your cwm image is good to go.
If not, it MEAN that your version of CWM is unsupported.
Did you flashed the ROM ??? LOL
gregsarg said:
Unsupported CWM image ...
Your CWM or TWRP is not compatible with your rom...
Flash the CWM from the "everything " thread ...
Then try again ....it seems this version is the most stable ....IMHO

It's non touch ...but it's rock solid ...g

This problem has been occurring for a long time now. And has nothing to do with your version of cwm. It has to do with the script IN THE ROM YOU ARE FLASHING. If it has the script in the rom to check what phone model u have, and it detects something other than what it should, it basically says "hey! This guy doesn't have our phone! Stopppp!" And won't let u flash. Status 7 error. To fix this, either manually remove the script that checks for this in the rom yer flashing, modify the build.prop in the rom yer currently ON to reflect the model number of the rom u want to flash, or flash another rom that already has this script checking removed to get your build.prop to reflect the new model number u want it to show. Either way none of it has to do with your version of cwm.

So why flashing the cm9 kernel and Not the ROM deal with that?
Are you sure that a kernel hás nothing to do with?
Im not just telling that, thats what i did and it works.
Im here sharing this info.
Tell me, did you tryed that to tell here that it wont work?
Just flash another kernel without the touch cwn.
...and thanks for unresume my resume.

You had a different issue then. most likely just a corrupt recovery. as there are NO problems flashing from one version of CWM to the next.
The common status 7 error, is caused by the updater.script searching the build.prop. as stated a million times in almost every thread.
hello
i tried 2/3 times to flash the vanilla rootbox rom (can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1806401) on my SGS 2 I9100 but it stopped with an error in cwm but i don't understood.

Signature Verification failure usually occurs when cwm encounters unsigned packages, you can install the package by disabling signature check option in cwm after selecting install zip option.

Thanks for the tip mate:good: I did some reading and found that I need to Flash CWM 6.0.4.5 or so. But somewhere I read about kernels. Can someone tell me the sequnce in which I should flash CWM, Kernel and ROM . Probably going for CWM 6.0.4.5 , Gustavo's kernel ( just because read somewhere its good ) and POUND ROM. Do I need to do all at once ?
Do I need a PC to flash these stuff ? I have a PC without admin priviliges so I can just download the files and copy to my SD card.
I know no one wants to feed spoon , I have done my homework need someone to show me the way to do it without me having to go through entire XDA pages.
Please help.

Yes if its zip then u don't need a pc.
Just flash it without wipe
Dorimax is used for Dualbooting so people prefer that
Gustavo's kernel is one of the best known kernel for kk right now

Thanks for helping me out, Well the main reason for me to flash a Kitkat Rom was because I was not able to login into my skype account using the android app. It says " Incorrect username/Password" . Well I re-installed skype serveral times but same error. The login details are absolutely correct because I can login using PC App and browser. My friend tried his ID and still problem seems to be with my app as I too can login on other phones. Thats when I started thinking maybe this is because of my ROM. Unfortunately after following this thread to flash POUND rom it still seems cant get skype working as same error appears .
Can someone help, Skype is very important app for me.
Do I need to open a new thread related to this for related responses?

Shostock3 does not use an appropriate kernel/recovery to flash any android 4.4 firmware.

It means your recovery needs to be updated. If you're wanting CM11 you would need to flash RenderBroken's kernel. If it's CM10 you would need AJK 4.9 AOSP.
Flashing one of these version-specific kernels will give you the recovery you need.
EDIT: SteveMurphy's response covers it better.
