Help with roms please - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I have downloaded a few roms for my AT&T I717 Note.
WhenI try to install them via CWM I get an error STATUS 7 , "this package is for SGH-I717 quincyatt. devices; this is a i717"
Under the battery it shows it as a GT-I717.
I cant seem to find a Rom for it
I had flashed this ROM
KIES_HOME_I717UCMD3_I717ATTMD3_1117019_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 before trying to install the other ROMs

Your recovery simply needs updated. Make sure you have the newer files.

I'm having the same problem. Can define how to 'update' a recovery and point me to an explanation of how to do it? Thanks

Thanks captemo. Checked CWM and it's 5.5.0.4. Sounds like a problem, doesn't it? The ROM was Beanstalk 4.4.4001 - 20140621 - quincyatt_2.zip. The bezel on my Note is not designated ATT, so I'm wondering if it will not accept this ROM. The label under the battery simply says "Samsung SGH-i717".
Thanks again for any help.

Thats a pretty old version and many KK roms wont flash with them.
There is a TWRP 2.7.1.0 from Gimmieorilltell in Development.
There is also an update CWM Touch, I beleive 6.0.4.7
Both of them are flashable zips. Download and flash like any rom. Once you boot up into whatever rom you are now on, or I guess you could pull battery, but next time you boot into recovery your new one will be there.
TWRP is super easy.

Wow! I'm feeling pretty dumb here, but when I attempt to flash the TWRP 2.7.1.0 zip through CWM 5.5.0.4, it returns:
"Installing update. . .
assert failed: getprop("ro.build.product") == "SGH - I727" getprop("ro.product.device") == "skyrocket"
getprop("ro.build.product") == "skyrocket"
E:Error in /emmc/jjd-openreovery-twrp-skyrocket-2.7.1.0.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
And when I attempt CWM 6.0.4.7, it defaults back to 5.5.0.4 when I reboot into recovery. Any ideas? These are not supposed to be installed through Odin3, are they?

I'll help you get TWRP 2.7 on your phone. Download it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByoEy8x_JgpqTHRvRk5PVjhXTlE/edit?usp=sharing
Then use Odin 3.07 available here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByoEy8x_JgpqbUt3WEl3YzZxWFE/edit?usp=sharing to flash it with.
(You'll have to copy and paste the links because I'm still a new member.)
You will flash Odin in the PDA slot. Make sure only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time options are checked.
Both of the links above are to my google drive so I know the files work. Good luck! Let me know how it went.
(I'm sure you know this but I'm tired and just to be safe, Volume down and power button on your phone at the same time for download mode. You'll need to enter it to use Odin.)

This is making me think you are not reading OP. I have used both files and never had "skyrocket" anything. Did you get files from right place.
If you read OP's you may have seen that these are flashable zips. There are file that will go through Odin, but flashing like rom is just so easy.
Let us know how it goes and dont forget to thank the pereon who provided with Odin files. Sorry cant remember name while typing here.

Thanks to all, but I'm in a big mess now. I downloaded TWRP, downloaded through Odin, was up and running well. Backed up system in TWRP, re-attempted to flash Beanstalk, but no luck. Wiped and tried to restore original backup . . . nothing! Now after several attempts, my phone won't even turn on and go into TWRP. Am I finished? The Samsung Galaxy Note will not boot to anything. In fact there is no response with phone even with fully charged battery. Heeeellllllllpppppp!

You got right device file???
Can you get download mode???
Flick the back of phone a couple time with finger. Stuck power button can be common. Dont be afraid to flick pretty good. Dont hurt finger though. Button may sound or feel normal, but could still be stuck.

try to pull the battery out, once out hold down both volume buttons along with power button, put battery back in while still holding all three buttons and see if it gets you into download mode. I had the same issue when upgrading cwm to twrp 2.7.1.0 a few days ago, I got stuck in a bootloop like you and only way I recovered was going back to stock and work my way back up to 4.4.4. I havnt upgraded to twrp yet but when I do this time I'm extracting the recovery. IMG and using flashify to flash it this time around.

I hate to ask this question but it needs to be asked. Are you absolutely positive that you have a Galaxy Note i717?
The reason I ask is that "Skyrocket" is the designation for the Galaxy II.....i727.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it has been stated about a million times that this is the same build as EC01 which has been released by Adryn—he has debloated and debinged it.
I also couldn't update from downloading from the thread. OTA went fine. Data is all there, but home screens all [email protected]#ed up. I don't remember what icons I had out there, damn it.
Will this work if i have removed a few pre installed apps like CityID, VZ Naz and Skype. these all shipped with the device but i have removed them.
I tried the OTA update and it failed.
Here's a question I've hot for everyone..
My girlfriends fascinate is stock...but hasn't been able to upgrade...she's still on dh12!! We search update and te di01 or w.e appears but always fails with some ip error or something?
I downloaded the official ed01 zip and put on her sdcard and booted into stock recovery...updated.zip.. and that failed....
Ideas?

Are you making sure that wi-fi is turned off prior to checking for an update? It will not working on older eclair versions if wi-fi is on.
the update turns off the wifi when its downloding the update, are you saying i should manually turn it off and then get the update?

CM10 (Droidbasement) Installation Aborted

First of all, I'm a newb here.
Second, i have watched the noob video when signing up. I must say, best TOS ever.
Third, I'm 14 years old. But that doesn't make me incompetent with technology, or grammar. I have successfully installed numerous leaked OSes on my BlackBerry Torch, and I fell very comfortable with both my Galaxy Tab and my Torch.
Alright, now to the question/issue.
When attempting to install CM10 (available at Droidbasement), I continually have CMR reply with:
"Installing Update.
Installation Aborted."
First, I must say, I did circumvent the first line in the update script to bypass the "p4" check, as it was giving me an error before (my device is the P7500R (Rogers)).
Second, perhaps I am just doing something wrong, but I cannot use fastboot or adb. Windows 8 does not seem to like any of the drivers.
Now, what could be causing this "Installation Aborted" error, and what can I do to solve it?
I am running the latest version of CMR Touch. I found an md5 and flashed it with ODIN (apparently odin works, but not fastboot)
Again, I apologize if I am a newb, but I'm tired of waiting for Samsung to release ICS, but by the time they do, it is already outdated by a few months! Sorry if I know nothing, but I am trying my best
First welcome here
In order to install rom from droidbasement you have to flash the recovery in the same folder than the cm rom
I don't know your device how it is different ? (7500R ?)
Can you say more about the error in CWM ? (Error code ?)
Sent with my GT-P7500 CM10
A) where is the supplied recovery?
B) The blof said I only had to use the supplied one if not on CMR5+, I am on a variant of 5.8 I believe
C) It isn't that my device is different, it is that it gave me an error on the "p4" check line
I apologize for any typos, sent from my BlackBerry
you should not modify anything in the zip. there is no reason to. the assert check is there for a reason.
to flash any of those builds, you need a recovery which supports it. CWM5 or CWM6 from DB both work. you can find these on droidbasement.
the server has been having issues, so your download may be corrupted in some form. the server is being worked on, and should be back by this weekend.

Well, that did the trick. Installed 5.5.0.4 from DB, and it accepted it! I though using a new version would work better, but pershoot eveidently modified this one? (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Can't update to latest CWM, can't flash liquid smooth. Please help!

I'm running the latest stock firmware and Siyah kernel. I tried to flash the latest version of the LiquidSmooth rom and receievd the error:
assert failed: getprop ("ro.product.device") == "d2aat" l l getprop ("ro.build.product") == "d2att"
E: Error in /emmc//Liquid-JB-v2.0-RC5-d2att.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
I did some searching and concluded that my outdated version of cwm is causing the problem. I first attempted to upgrade to the latest version of Touch cwm with Rom manager but was unable to install the update because apparently there was an "Error while downloading from server." I tried about 10 times on both wifi and 3g to avail. I then attempted to manually flash Touch v.6.0.3.5 from a .zip file in my current version of cwm (non-touch v.6.0.3.2) and although it said 'install from sdcard complete', when I reboot into recovery I'm still on the 6.0.3.2 version, the update won't stick. I tried multiple times but I just can't get it to overwrite my current version of cwm. Lastly I tried flashing Touch v.6.0.3.5 with a .tar file via oOdin. Odin said the flash was successful but when I tried to boot into recovery it got stuck on the Samsung logo. I just used Rom manager to flash back to 6.0.3.2 and now I'm back to square one.
All I want to do is update my recovery! Why is this so difficult? :crying:
I'd greatly appreciate any advice you can offer.
Anyone? Sorry, I know bumping is kind of obnoxious but I'm really stuck here.

Try PhilZ Touch recovery. And as far as I know 6.0.3.5 isn't ready for the S3 yet so maybe that's why you're having problems.

Thanks for replying. I successfully flashed PhilZ recovery so that's a step in the right direction. However I still can't flash Liquid Smooth. When I select 'install from .zip' and then 'choose file from sd card' the Liquid Smooth zip file isn't there (even though it is definitely the on the root of my SD card), it was detected on my previous version of cwm but not on PhilZ for some reason. When I select 'choose file from sd card' all I see is a directory called 'clockworkmod /', when I select that it just says 'no files found.' What am I doing wrong?

You don't sound too big on reading information, try following the instructions for philz interface as it sounds like you're looking at your internal sd card.

[Q][P769] how to fix assert failed: getprop when flashing rom

After along struggle to get my phone unlocked and rooted I have tried flashing many roms but every time I try I get:
assert failed: getprop("ro,product.device") == "p769" ......
and it shows the android with the red exclamation point in the background.
I have made sure that every rom I attempt to flash is for p769. Any advice?
The assert line can be removed in the flash script its one of the first few lines. If they are meant for your phone I'm not sure why you would get the error

Yeah I tried that yesterday and it soft bricked my phone. would give me security error at start up and I couldn't get to recovery. It was hard to get it back. Any ideas what would be causing this problem in the first place before I possibly brick my phone again.
So I looked at my device and my ro.product.device=u2
All the roms I try though also have u2 in the assert lines. So I assume it should work. I don't know very much about this assert stuff
every time i download the new CM anton release i unzip it and remove the assert lines, re-zip and works like a charm... if i dont i get the same error. never has my phone soft bricked. can you get into CWM? which rom are you trying to flash?
Strange that you need to do this. I set "u2", p769", and "p760" (for compatibility with older ROMs) as accepted devices in the assert. I wonder if it has something to do with CWM version that you are using. I use TWRP and it seems to work fine.

that has to be it.. cwm i mean. I use Artas CWM.. maybe there is something in there that needs to be tweaked.
Where can I get a CWM or TWRP .img that I can flash on p769. Or are they they same for all optimus l9 versions?

For me I still have to remove the assert every time I update CM. I use CWM 1.5 (from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095825). Not a big issue as I know how to edit zip file, but Anton I think you should investigate.

I'm not sure what I can do about it. TWRP works just fine, the script seems to be correct and it's actually generated by CM build environment. Would be interesting to trace this CWM code and see why exactly does it fail. @artas182x, can you help?
well I tried to remove the assert lines again and now I'm stuck in with a security error again. I'm having troubles getting it back. I can only access s/w update and fastboot. Flashing the KDZ doesn't seem to find the phone. any tips or other threads you can recomend?

Oh, that explains it.
I really don't want to add p940 to the script though, just don't seem right.

Are you flashing through a custom recovery, twrp, cwm etc ect? Original Android Development Roms like CM11, PA, Google Play edition usually have a device check in the beginning of their updater-scripts.. For exmaple:
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "t0ltevzw" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "t0ltevzw" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "t0ltecdma" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "t0ltecdma" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "i605" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "i605" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "SCH-I605" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SCH-I605" || abort("This package is for \"t0ltevzw,t0ltecdma,i605,SCH-I605\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\"."););
This basically tells the phone which devices can be used, in laymans terms..
If you phone is not listed in that updater-script it will not allow you to flash it..
(BTW this is from a ROM from my phone, but same instance)
Report back I will try to help..:highfive:

Also is rooting your phone and returning to stock more than once a bad thing

No. Is your phone unlocked? Like did you go through a process to unlock the bootloader, so your were able to flash a Custom Rom, like the one you posted about? Rooting and Unlocking are two different things..Not being disrespectful/rude just not sure of your knowledge level and trying to help you..
Let me know

Thanks for the help
Ok.. i found a little something..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42246660&postcount=28
So if that look like your device that he is talking about then you are Unlocked..
Your next step should be to try to download a recovery through RomManager, which you can obtain free in the PlayStore..
Download it, on the main page it should say Recovery Setup. Click it. If you get a error message than there is no recoveries for your device (uh oh! =/) If there is some listed, CWM or TWRP pick one.. let it go through its process.. you should boot into recovery afterwards..
Get there and report back..

You can try it.. some newer roms a spereatic when it comes to recoveries or it could be the other way around..Just hit yes and let it do it's thing..
Manually you can go unto CWM and find your device and recovery.tar or zip..
But let the app do it..:good:

Did you flash the recovery or update it? Or did you try just re flashing that Rom?
