[Q] Problems flashing roms - General Questions and Answers

I've got a fully rooted, fully NAND unlocked evo4g and I've been having a lot of trouble flashing custom roms.
Right now I'm trying to flash Cyanogen 6.0.0 and i'm getting the following error (check the attachment for a pic of the error).
I've googled the problem and all I could draw from my research was that I needed to download a new PCM132.IMG.
Tried that, and I still get the same error message.
What am I doing wrong?
Any help is appreciated...

Status 7 Symlinks Fail

I've looked at multiple forums, not just galaxy 3, and I can't find an answer to this problem. I keep getting the "symlinks: some symlinks fail - status 7" error when I try to flash certain roms. First of all, I'm rooted and unlocked. I have flashed CM10 and Synergy before (couple weeks ago,) but now I can't install any of the synergy nightlies or JB roms. I've tried to install from internal and external sd, and failed on both. I've flashed CWM touch and non touch 6.0.1.2 as well as twrp with the same error message. I've flashed the cwm recoveries through Rom Manager and Odin with no change. I loaded the latest Modem through Odin to see if that would fix the problem somehow, and that didn't work either. (Wasn't expecting it too.) Has anyone run into this issue and come out with a fix? I think I've done some pretty in depth research on this, but maybe I've missed something. I don't want to create a brick if someone has a fix. Thanks for the help.
I just bought a S3 last night. I immediately went through all of the steps for root,unlock,and tried to load a custom rom. After about 5 hours worth of research and trial and error I gave up and am probably going to return it for something different. No one has answers for this issue, but it seems a decent amount of people are getting this. I believe it has something to do with the phones memory / storage. Be sure to share anything that might fix this issue.

[Q] HTC One X bootloops after trying to flash a kernel

Hey guys, I've had so much trouble trying to get anything to work on my HOX, right now I was trying to put the stock kernel back on and when it finished it showed the bootup screen with the text "This build is for development purposes only etc. etc.". I've tried everything from restoring with TWRP to reflashing the kernel with no luck. Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Got it to work on its own.

[Q] Failure to install custom ROM or RUU

Hey all! This is my first post here since i got my htc one S 2 days ago. I have read quite a bit on how to install custom roms and everything.
The very first ROM i installed was the venom viperOneS OTA 2.1.0 and it ran well until i noticed that my camera was not working. Not even through other apps that require camera. All it says is that the camera is unavailable and shuts down the apps. I tried dozens of things to fix the camera, but no luck. Then realised that my microphone didn't work and i couldn't call anybody.
I decided to get my phone back to stock, but it seems to be an extremely difficult process. I downloaded loads of RUU files (including the newest RUU Ville U JB 45) and after re-locking the phone, and running the .exe file i always get an error after its trying to change the signatures saying that this is not the right file for my phone. (When i press 'update' in the installed the current version is blank, not sure if this means anything).
Then i tried an older viperOneS OTA and was left with a bootloop.
Could somebody please help me out on how to get my phone to stock version?
And before you ask if i've wiped my phone before any ROM installation - i have multiple times.
Thank you in advance.

Need some help, my phone wont flash ROMS

Im sorry if there is a thread for this already(if so plz direct), but Im having some trouble flashing CM onto my phone. I unlocked it, rooted it, and flashed CWM(then later on TWRP) without any issues. but as soon as I tried flashing CM onto it, it kept giving me errors, generally error 7, which i looked up and found a workaround by deleting the asserts out of the script on the ROM. but still no luck, even after doing this I still get errors everytime. Im pretty stumped and not sure what else to do. any help would be MUCH appreciated!

[Q] Error mounting sd card in CWM

Okay so I've been all over this site and linked to many other articles to proceed and hope to fix my issue but nothing seems to be working for me. To get you guys up to speed it's a SGH-T959V and I started out with having jelly bean 4.0 on it then upgraded to 4.2.2 which I occurred an issue with that and had to revert to getting gingerbread flashed back on. It's been a little while since I've done so and kinda forgot how I did it. I've read about using odin and heimdall but no luck getting my phone to connect with either of those programs.
Recently upgraded to 4.4.2 slimkat which was working good (still some bugs, since it's weekly) and had TWRP recovery on it. Problem started as I was starting the process to flash the new update of 4.4.2 and I created a back up and recovery for it prior to flash but now its gone. During the flash of the new update it had occurred some error and now went to Semaphore CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5 and has a bunch of errors to it and I cant even format or mount an sd card. I've tried using a couple different sd cards same issues. I can boot into download mode no issues.
Anyone be able to help me out? I am pretty stumped on this one and have tried many things to get it to work. Also are there any programs I could use besides odin and heimdall to flash a different version of CWM or TWRP via usb?
Thanks guys let me know if I left anything out or if you have questions to help me out better.
Hey guys, here are a couple of pictures of what it looks like while in CWM and what its saying.
Hey guys never mind, I already figured out what I was doing wrong. All I needed to do what open a file I downloaded in this thread to get it back to stock gingerbread. Now I am going to do some more flashing to get it back to 4.4.2 slimkat. Thanks
