Flash the latest cm10.2 and that will give you the latest recovery. Then once that's boooted and working and after a trusty nandroid flash cm11

It's easy to fix this.
Open Rom.zip by Winzip or 7zip.
Find system/build.drop
Extract it and open by Notepad++
Delete getprop..... (maybe it have 2-3 lines)
Save and put new build.drop to you Rom.zip by Winzip.
Good luck

A newer recovery like CWM 6.0.4.5 is required.
You can either flash the recovery directly or a kernel/rom which has the newer version of cwm.

Check out the OP on the thread for the AOSP version of jelly bean. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765254
It says you need to update your recovery to a certain version. That is said to stop the assert 7 issue you are having.

Hi,
I'm new to this forum and thisis my first post with a rather serious Problem:
I tried to flash my GalaxyTab P7500 as described here in post #80 using Mobile Odin. Problem is, the tab did not restart but has been stuck for an hour with the attached screen. It does not react to anything, not even the power button.
Any ideas what went wrong and what I could do?
Greets,
selcall
Edit: stupid me, didn't press power off long enough. Seems to work, although it should have rebooted by itself!
the first time I tried to install CM10 I've got the same same system error.
you have to use the cwm version 5.5.0.4
you can found it on DROID basement website.
edit:
link for cwm

flash via Odin and the flashing of cm should work fine.

Is 5.5.0.4 REQUIRED for CM10 to flash properly? Or will any version over and above but inclusive of 5.5.0.4 work? (I'm on 5.8.3.1 for example, flashed via Rom Manager...)

According to the installation instructions, you WILL get an assert error:
Comming from a Pre "Slim-venturi-4.4.2.beta.1.7-UNOFFICIAL-20131221-1839" ROM
Do a back up!
Do factory reset/ wipe (incl. /system)
In recovery: flash ROM zip file. (You WILL get an assert error!)
Read the warning on the screen.
Flash the ROM again!
If you have and international device flash the INT Kernel from the OP.
Flash Gapps
Reboot.

[Q] problems installing CM11 ON S3

I have an AT&T S3 I have clockworkmod 6.0.4.7. I am trying to install cm-11-20140210-SNAPSHOT-M3-d2att.zip but every time I do the install is aborted and I get a status 7 error. I tried installing TWP but though goo manager but my recovery mode is still in clockworkmod. Please help me figure out how to install this latest version of Kit Kat rom.
Try to flash TWRP using Odin or download a recovery flashing compatible file for TWRP and flash it using your current CWM. Or just try PhilZ
Do you have an i9300 or another model number? Try asking in that model's forum.

Download CM again or simply from another source and before you transfer the .zip file to your phone, compare the MD5 of both files to check if the download was successful.

[Q] Problem in installing pa_gapps - cm11 S3 gti9300

I installed cm11 nightly update 613. Install was successful and phone is working fine. I am encountering the following error on trying to install gapps by using install zip option we get on pressing volume up+power+home buttons:
file_getprop: failed to stat "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory
E: Error in /storage/sdcard1/pa_gapps-full-4.3-20131102-signed.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
I tried installing gapps 4.4 modular full instead of 4.3 but got the same error.
I noticed one particular error, whenever I try wipe data/factory reset, everything is fine except this one thing:
Error in mounting /data!
Dont know if this is causing the trouble. I also tried usind a different sdcard(written in some thread) in case there was some problem with the current one, but same errors arise.
I am new to all of this. This is the first time I rooted my phone and installed a custom ROM so please provide a solution in simpler terms, thanks.
Phone details:
Samsung galaxy S3 gt i9300

Would that make any difference? Latest is 6.0.4.7, I am using 6.0.4.6. Most of the tutorials to install kitkat on s3 use cwm6.0.4.6
6.0.4.7 doesnt have tar for odin I guess, so 6.0.4.6 would be the latest stable cwm.

Status 7 errors are usually due to using an incompatible recovery so yes using an older CWM may be the problem, out of interest have you tried flashing cm gapps ?

Im at 4.0.4.
That was my ultimate goal to root the phone but when I tried I got the same error message
I thought that I would wipe the phone and install a ROM but to do that I need CWM

Assuming you're NOT yet rooted, I'd say, update your phone to official 4.1.2 through Kies and then follow the previous link. Will work 100%
Root and flash it with Odin. It works for me.

Unless u root ur phone u cannot simply change the CWM while on Stock
Ok
I've tried to root my phone and I get the same error message
Root your phone by flashing an insecure kernel e g. Philz, hirox, apolo etc via Odin. Then reboot to recovery and flash away your ROM.
If you want a kk ROM then you would require a kk compatible recovery which you can get by flashing one of these kernels - dorimanx 10.43, Gustavo's, apolo.
Thanks guys I got it
