[Q] cwm error status 7 - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Well this has been a fight every step of the way....
Im bootloader unlocked
CWM installed (although ive only manager to get into it once)
when i did i got an error status 7 when i tried to flash
googled it - apparently it could be something to do with baseband being wrong/need updating??
Hopefully someone can help
Cheers
Comfy

status ,7 error mostly occurs due to incompatible kernel
which rom are u trying to flash
have u flashed any kernel?

First flash included kernel in ROM install ROM now flash desired kernel...

Hi - i kinda got there in the end. When i got the error i was on CWM 5.something (cant remember which one exactly) then i flash Nemesis CWM 2.1 which upped my CWM version to 6.0.1.2 then it let me flash "FireCyano 4.0"
So whats the deal then - i cant just find a rom and flash - i have to find its corresponding kernel...?

I have a Sony Xperia LT22i (nypon). I had the stock version of jb by sony i.e., 6.2.A.1.100.
I have been trying to flash FXP233-cm-10 for xpeira p on my phone but the process has not been successfull.
the cwm recovery kernel alongwith the ROM is 6.0.2.8
I also have a cwm recovery kernel version 6.0.3.2
I successfully pushed the files into the sdcard but the installation from zip failed due to status 7.
The error shown is:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT22i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT22i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT22i" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT22a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT22a" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "nypon" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "nypon"

both of them use the same cwm version
when i tried installing it, it showed the same error as above

I've the gapps signed zip file compatible with the cm10 rom tht i've, i tried installing it without installing the rom, and surprisingly the process completed and showed tht gapps have been installed....
after this i did a factory reset,
pushed the zip file into the sdcard
rebooted the phone into recovery
mount /system

mount /data /sdcard
install zip from sdcard

'Installation aborted' error on new install

Hi
I'm a noob, there we go I admit it
This is actually my first install of a new ROM on a Samsung Galaxy S2 (and in fact any device) and I'm stuck, I thought I'd followed all the instructions on the cyanogenmod wiki correctly but it appears that somewhere along the line I went awry!
I have rooted the device and successfully installed ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.14. However, when I go to install Cyanogenmod 7.1 (update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxyS2-signed.zip) via the 'install zip from sdcard' I get the following error and the installation is aborted:
----------------------------------------
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") =="galaxys2" || getprop("ro.build.product") =="galaxys2" || getprop("ro.product.board") =="galaxys2" || getprop("ro.product.device") =="GT-I9100" || getprop("ro.build.product") =="GT-I9100" || getprop("ro.product.board") =="GT-I9100" || getprop("ro.product.device") =="GT-I9100M" || getprop("ro.build.product") =="GT-I9100M" || getprop("ro.product.board") =="GT-I9100M" || getprop("ro.product.device") =="GT-I9100T" || getprop("ro.build.product") =="GT-I9100T" || getprop("ro.product.board") =="GT-I9100T"
E:Error in /sdcard/update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxyS2-signed.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
----------------------------------------
I have tried to install a number of times with the same result.
There is no backup to a previous ROM so at the moment I seem to be as I said 'stuck'. I have tried installing other ROMs also and get the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Many thanks in advance!
open the updater script within the meta inf folder and remove the line (that should be the first action line) that includes:
getprop("ro.build.product")
Thanks very much for the reply!
I found the updater script file in the following directory 'update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxyS2-signed\META-INF\com\google\android', is that right?
The text within that file appears to just wrap so how much do I delete or do I simply delete 'getprop("ro.build.product") =="galaxys2" ||'
Sorry for all the questions and thanks for your help!
Also this could be caused by corrupted file. Check zip file size. Download again and try to flash.
I tried that and also another ROM (MIUI) but got exactly the same message

If you can't read the file correctly, I'd suggest you open it with a better editor (like Notepad++), there you won't have problems with encoding, wrapping or new lines.
EDIT: Its also possible that this updater script is not compatible with your CWM version (or as said before, the file is corrupted)
right, thanks again for everyones input, I've tried all of it, changing the CWM version to ClockworkMod 4.0.0.2, re-downloading the Cyanogenmod and removing the first line of the script updater file as suggested and it all either ends in the installation being aborted immediately or I get the same message (as in my initial post).
If I enable signature verification when I try and install, the process gets aborted whilst trying to verify the update package with the following error:
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Should I be doing something with the 'md5sum: ca096fd81a8a699d291ea12152a84137' displayed under the Cyanogenmod download link?
Is anyone able to help me...pleeeeease?
Thanks again guys!
Why are you trying flash cm if you see no luck? You can flash another rom. It's lot of them.
Well, I did it! I followed 078gregory's suggestion and tried another ROM, I wasn't convince it was going to work as I'd previously tried MIUI with the same result, but I thought what have I got to loose . I went for DarkyROM2_KI3_Base.zip and followed exactly the same installation process 'et voila'! it installed first time! I flashed it twice to be sure and rebooted the phone and was away!
Once I knew I could get a ROM on the phone, I (just for the hell of it) tried to install Cyanogenmod again and to my surprise it worked, it installed first time! The only thing I can think of is that the version of Clockworkmod that I was using initially was v4.0.1.2 and the version that got installed with DarkyROM was a later version so I guess more up-to-date. Incidentally the CWM version that installed with Cyanogenmod 7.1 was later still (v5.0.2.6).
Thanks so much to everyone that helped me!
Status 7 Installation aborted
Hello.I also had the same problem when i installed Biftor Rom V3.6. After installing this rom i have no chance to install CM 10.1 on my galaxy S2.After a few weeks i installed Revolt Rom and after that i tried to install CM 10.1,and it works.The only problem of this is the recovery i use. In Biftor Rom its the Philz recovery and the other roms have cwm-based recovery v6.0.2.3. I do evreything exactly the same way only with this recovery and it works. Hope can help anybody who had the same problem.(And with Philz recovery i also couldnt install Hellybean and Jellybam Rom,with cwm-based recovery it works).

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.

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.

the cwm recovery kernel alongwith the ROM is 6.0.2.8
I also have a cwm recovery kernel version 6.0.3.2
I successfully pushed the files into the sdcard but the installation from zip failed due to status 7.
The error shown is:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT22i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT22i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT22i" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT22a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT22a" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "nypon" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "nypon"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installtion aborted
I tried editing the updater-script & then running the installation but then the log shows:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
My current status of phone is:
Recovery= CWM v6.0.2.8
Wiped dalvik cache
Wiped system("I did that accidentally")
Factory reset also
I also have the zip file FXP228-cm-10 for xperia p
both of them use the same cwm version
when i tried installing it, it showed the same error as above
Please help

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.

[solved] status 7 when updating Free Xperia rom on Ray

Hi Guys,
I am strugling to install a Free Xperia CM10 on my Sony Ray.
I keep getting status 7 errors when installing ZIP in CWM recovery with text like:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT18i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT18I" || getprop("ro.product.board") == "LT18i" etc.
What did i do?
I followed the steps according to free Xperia: unlocked the Ray, downloaded the Urushi FXP152 variant, copied ZIP to SDcard, i copied the boot.img to the same folder as the SDK fastboot folder (from step 1 in the free XP howto: https://sites.google.com/site/projectfreexperia/download/howto-install).
I ran fastboot using "fastboot flash boot boot.img". So my phone gives me the FreeXperio logo on startup, i go to CWM, but when i try to install from zip i get the errors.
1. I also tried the tip to make a new zip file without the boot.img as described in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1981660
This did not work for me.
2. I tried the FXP151 variant (also with and without boot.img in zip), did not work for me.
3. i tried factory reset / reset cache via CWM: no improvement.
Any advice would be helpfull, i am kind of stuck with a non functioning phone right now
You have to unpack the zip, open the meta -inf folder and go to the updater-script. You open it and delete the first 3 lines. But don't format system before installing, just wipe data/factory reset!
Now pack the zip again and flash it
mihahn, you are fast!
However it did not resolve the problem. Instead i got a status 6 error, which apperently indicates i deleted a ; too much (did not do that) or did something wrong with the end of line seperators.
However i followed this instruction (basically the same):
wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Ray:_Full_Update_Guide
It seems this bootloader is a bit different (has a different screen) and that does the trick for me. So my problem is solved.
First i installed the CM10 nightly ROM. Fortunately it worked. However i did not like the style (and speed might be better), so i also tried your suggestion with the Free Xperia rom.
With the new bootloader (and a second try at deleting the first 3 lines) it now worked.
i did not try to see if the original now works too (that might be the case).
So i got my phone working again. However, there seems to be no difference in skin between the nightly rom and FreeXperia rom. Nevermind, it is nice to know people can sent you a SMS on 1st of jan, so i will be sticking with it. Thanks for you help.
cheers

Since in the OP you state that you were updating from one cm to a newer one, I think that you downloaded cm for the wrong device (arc s). This is why you got status 7 error. The status 6 error means that you probably used the wrong text editor or saved the updater-script as the wrong type, etc. Flashing an arc S rom onto the ray is not the end of the world because it will likely boot and can be easily fixed, but you will want to be sure when you get a status 7 error that the issue is with your build.prop and not that you have gotten hold of a ROM for a different device, because flashing a ROM for a different device can really mess up your device.

You must edit the updater script with notepad++ otherwise you will see status6 error.

Did you flashed any jb kernel before you flash rom? (FXP kernel is inside zip, it calls "boot.img")
sorry...but i am new...i am installing the FXP207....but get the same problem of status 7....can someone tell me which 3 line exactly need to be deleted????thanks in advance...
here is the first few lines of the updater script.....
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "ST18i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "ST18i" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "ST18a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "ST18a" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "urushi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "urushi");
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "/system");
package_extract_file("system/bin/backuptool.sh", "/tmp/backuptool.sh");
package_extract_file("system/bin/backuptool.functions",
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
can anyone just delete for me???i know im noob.....
Just PM me ur updater script...i'll do it for u or u can do it manually by deleting the following lines:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "ST18i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "ST18i" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "ST18a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "ST18a" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "urushi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "urushi");
But remember don't leave a blank line at the start
Best Regards,
AJ

Problems with installing ROM from SD Card in CWM

I have an SGS2 (former running with Android 2.3.5 and SpeedmodKernel). I fullwiped it in order to install a Custom Rom. Then I tried to install the custom-roms .zip file in CWM (v5.0.2.3) with "install from sd-card", I chose the ROM I wished to install and then I get the following error:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device")=="galaxys2" || getprop("ro.build.product")="galaxys2" || getprop("ro.product.device")=="i9100" || getprop("ro.build.product")="GT-I9100" [...]
E: Error in /emmc/CM/cm-10.1-20130204-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip (Status7)
Installation aborted
I wiped everything, so I can't do anything except entering DownloadMode or Recovery!
Can you help me? What can I do? I don't have any ROM-preferences, I just want to get my phone starting again...:crying:
Dude, you have posted in the wrong section.. This is the development thread... Please post in q and a thread.. Thanks

Download kernel compatibile with your new rom and instal it first.
Or download another rom and flash it via odin.
If you have downloaded correct kernel you can follow this method http://www.androidgadgematic.com/2012/12/fix-custom-rom-installation-status-7.html
But if you downloaded wrong kernel, after following above tutorial, your device will brick. So make sure that you have correct kernel.
