Hello guys,
I tried flashing cm 12.1 in oneplus x but faced a problem while doing the same.
Firstly i wiped my partitions which said-"Wipe complete" & "Failed" in new line bcos it couldn't wipe usb-otg,
i thought it was a minor problem & flashed CM 12.1 but it also gave some error as follows:
Installing '/sdcard/MA-12.1-20151223-onyx.zip'...
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found
This package is for device: ONE; this device is .
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/MA-12.1-20151223-onyx.zip'
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/MA-12.1-20151223-onyx.zip'
Updating partition details...
...done
I also flashed resurrection remix which gave exactly the same problem as above.
I repeated the same procedure twice & failed both the times and after that i restored my stock rom.
Can someone help me?
Delete the first line in updater.script and you will be fine.
Do u mean updater.script as in-
META-INF\com\google\android - updater-script of the rom zip file,
I tried this by deleting the first line which says-
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "ONE" ||
Got the same error again,what now?

Or just flash blu spark recovery and flash cm12.1 from it, no need to delete any line.
You'll find the recovery in the blu spark kernel thread, download latest version from there.

I hope you are using recovery from CM12.1, as MasterAwesome already mentioned in his OP that we have to use recovery which is provided by him. Or as someone else mentioned that you have to remove few lines of code to make it work.
I'm using twrp as given in cm12.1 thread by master awesome

Well that's very weird and shouldn't happen but okay no problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=15644
This is the link to twrp specifically for cm12.1 and I took it off the cm12.1 thread by MasterAwesome himself.
You can flash cm12.1 from this, don't know about RR or Mokee because the updater script might be changed.
1. Flash the recovery using flashify
2. Boot into recovery, flash cm12.1

You have wiped system.
Do never wipe system. It is used to verify that you are trying to install it on the correct device.

The first error is because system has been wiped, so it will only help, if the assert has been removed.
What you could do, is to try to temporarily install a ROM, that does not check for what device it is installed on.
When that is done, are you able to install the FXP ROM, as the other one will setup a new system partition.
What did he exactly wrong ?
It should be?
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Format system
Install fxp
Enjoy
Thx

You may not wipe/format system.
The installation does need system, so make sure that it is installed on the correct phone.
So never wipe/format system yourself.
If it is needed, will the install script do it by itself, when it is needed.
Ok, and there are no issue with older files Which maybe not cleared during Installation when going from gb to ics?
Thx
Hello, I have the same issue, if it can help I solve it by replace the "update-binary" with one I take in a Rom which install well
Excuse for my english.
This may hep you

Hi,
I've been trying to install CM 11 based on Kitkat 4.4.2 on my Xperia P. The following are the details / steps followed:
- The bootloader is unlocked
- The phone is rooted
- CWM 6.0.1.2 is installed ( I think this is the latest available for Xperia P)
1) Downloaded CM11-RC1 from the links in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2626639
2) Modified 'updater-script' to get rid of Error 7
3) Extracted 'boot.img' and flashed it using FlashTool in fastboot mode.
After reboot, the phone stops at Sony logo and vibrates once.
4) Pressed the Power button to load CWM Recovery
5) Wiped Data, Cache/Partition, Dalvik Cache
6) Tried to install CM11-RC1 zip file using CWM
Now I get the message "Installation aborted", as soon as the installation begins, without any error code being displayed
I can't seem to get past this step, and don't know where I'm going wrong.
Can anyone please help me out?
Are you sure that your phone is unlocked bootloader ? Did you unlocked yourself ? And you should not change anything in update script because i had flash this rom without problem ...

Yes. The bootloader is unlocked. I did it myself following the instructions on the Sony website.
The installation shows an error 7 if I don't modify the updater script.

Could it be a version issue? Which one did you flash? I did RC1
Hey I had exactly the same problem. What I did was this:
I used Sony Mobile EMMA to re-install latest stock firmware.
After that I rooted it and Installed CWM 1.0 Nypon, I believe this is CWM somewhere in V6.xxxx (other versions wouldn't work for me..)
I also edited the updater script because it wouldn't pass the assert section, so I deleted this.
After that Recompiled it, (Zip format ofcourse) and copied it to SD card.
Next, I flashed boot.img and rebooted the phone after that. Then access CWM.
Now what I did was userdata/factory reset after that I deleted cache, and last but not least dalvik cache.
After that I flashed the recompiled ROM file and then It passed the status 7 error.
When that was finished I flashed gapps
This was what I did, becuz' I had exactly the same problem. I don't know if this works for you but you might give it a try.
(Sorry for bad Englisch)
(Make sure that your bootloader is unlocked! (To verify, I did try to unlock it again. Then I got a message saying that it was allready unlocked)

I flashed RC1 also, I tried almost all nightly's and the RC1 lol but they all wouldn't work before I used this sort of 'method'
Yesterday RC1 workied succesfully for me, today I updated to nightly 25 and everything works fine. Note that once you get passed the installation of RC1, that you can only access the CWM recovery with holding the power button, when your phone vibrates when you see the sony logo.. The CW11 comes with CMW touchable. Goodluck
And did it work?

Auful way way to "fix" things.
You can "fix" galaxy ROM to be installed on your phone and brick it permanently, it's already been done.
If you have flashed galaxy kernel you probably won't be able to boot but still able to recover.
Tha asserts are there for a reason.

I didn't flash a wrong kernel or rom. İf friend is sure of the right pack to flash, than he can use this method.
I wanted to flash cm nightly 25 (percy's rom) to my xperia p, and the cwm gave status 7 error. Then i have searched a solution for my problem, and i found this video and did what he shows in the video, and i have a cm11 flashed xperia p now. And i also flashed over cm11-weekly.

Sp they released a ROM that cannot be flushed, is that what you say? And no one else reporting it?
Somehow I find it difficult to believe.
If you have followed the instructions I'm sure there would be no problem, or the instructions are incomplete, or there is some issue, either way it's up to the developer to fix it.
Avoid "fixing" errors in this manner or one day you may regret it dearly.

I have followed the instructions in a good way and this was the problem i have lived. Some of my friends lived this problem in a Turkish Forum and i recommended this way, they did it and flash the rom. I will give the link here; http://forum.donanimhaber.com/m_58138440/mpage_242/f_//tm.htm#87204228
My nick is ENG_civ on that forum. Everything is right about the rom but something goes in a wrong way, so this way makes the compiler not asking "is this right rom?", that's all. İn my opinion, if you are sure of the rom, there is no risk.
And i am new in this forum, and i couldn't write at development part, and this is the first time i am writing to a foreign language forum. So i couldn't reported them, and these rom's are not the final, so there could be faults on them i think.

You should have read the rom thread instead of creating a new thread for this. Solution is there: boot to recovery manually, search for the zip file and flash.

Try the stock rom now with the stock pit, if that failed as well, you might need to get your phone fixed in a service center.
