[Q] Installation aborted (status 7) - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I'm on Brainmaster's MIUI. (1.12.9) and ICS for GSM nexus S is out but, when I want to apply the zip, the installation aborted :
"assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/ApplicationsProvider.apk"."46172b4637...."
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(status 7)
installation aborted.
Did something wrong ? (I've downloaded the zip in WiFi so it's not corrupted or else)
can anyone hemp me on that ?
thank a lot

need to be 2.3.6 to flash thank you guyz

Status 7 usually means your ClockWork Recovery needs to be updated.

I had the same issue and I was able to solve it.
To fix Error Status 7 you have to modify the assert code and enter your phone model in it. It is bit complex. You can also delete the assert function that worked out for me.
Unzip ROM in some folder.
Goto Meta-INF folder and navigate to /com/google/android directory.
There you will find a file named as “updater-script”.
Open this file via Notepad++. (Use Notepad++ as it saves and resigns zip perfectly).
Find the line
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "grouper" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "grouper" ||;
And remove this line of code.
Rezip the ROM
Move it to your phone and flash.
If you still have any confusion see this guide.

[Solved] Cant flash any ROM's

Has anyone else run into an issue where it seems they cant flash anything at all? I just rooted and installed CWM 5.0.2.0. I have tried to flash 2-3 different roms and each time it comes back with this error:
"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo4g" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo4g" || getprop("ro.product.board") =="crespo4g"
E:Error in/sdcard/**rom file name here**
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted
Any idea how to get this to work? Did a full wipe of everything, tried toggle both signature and script asserts...
EDIT: Chalk this one up to sloppy flashing skills. After DLing the CWM app, and making sure CWM was installed properly, I have used the app to flash roms.

[Q] Please Help (Status 7) Installation aborted

Hello everyone, I have been going a little crazy the last 4 hours or so trying to get my phone back in action:
Verizon Galaxy Nexus - just rooted and unlocked
I am in the process of flashing to CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS v.10 HYBRID, and have gotten to the part where I need to select the .zip file from the SD card directory. I pushed the zip file from my PC to the phone via adb push successfully, but when I select the zip file I receive a
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo"
E:Error in //sdcard/cyberGR.zip
(Status 7) Installation aborted error message
Does anyone have any advice to either finish this installation or go back to stock?
Thanks in advance and I appreciate any help in advance.
I managed to get the GummyNex rom to install, and was able to execute Wug's restore to factory steps. Any suggestions? Maybe a bad zip file?

Having same problem while trying to flash AOKP.
I previously flashed Android Revolution with no problems... Not sure why I get this error. Help would be appreciated.

[Q] Error status 7 while installing CM

Hey everyone,
I just rooted my SE Live with Walkman and wanted to install CM for my device, but there is an error like:
"asser failed: getprop("ro.product.device")== "wt19a" || get.prop("ro.build.product")=="wt19a" || get.prop("ro.product.board")=="wt19a" || getprop("ro.product.device")== "wt19i" || get.prop("ro.build.product")=="wt19i" || get.prop("ro.product.board")=="wt19i" || getprop("ro.product.device")== "coconut" || get.prop("ro.build.product")=="coconut" || get.prop("ro.product.board")=="coconut" || E: Error in /sdcard/update-cm-7.2.0-RC1-coconut-signed.zip error (status 7) ...
What does it mean? What's wrong? What should I do to fix this error?
BTW!!! I have already tried changing properties with Build.prop Editor...
Are you really sure that is a rom for your phone.. ?
TO Resolve :
Unzip the rom
Go TO meta-inf/google/android and open with block note updater-script and delete the string for the assert
Save and rizip everything
And now install
If you have problem tell TO me
Excuse me tor the bad english i m italian

Are you sure this is the way to fix this error? Because in my opinion it will just don't show that there's an error, but the installation won't continue.
Edit: I just did what you said and it said that installation is completed, I pressed reboot system now and now it seems that my phone is stuck on booting with "Sony Ericsson" on screen. I haven't unlocked my bootloader, maybe that's the reason???
The rom is not for your device if stuck on logo
You must unlock the bootloader because hybrom do not have a boot image http://www.androidust.com/unlock-bootloader-of-sony-ericsson-android-phones/

[Q] E: Error in /sdcard/cm-10-20121 (status 7) when install from sdcard cm10-20121005

installing update....
symlink:some symlink failed

(status 7)
installation aborted.
Status 7 means a getprop error...in other words, cwm detected that the zip does not suit your phone...if you are really sure that the zip is for your phone, extract the zip and find a file named "updater-script"...open it with a text editor and delete all the lines starting with "assert(getprop..." (something like that, forgot the lines )..save the file and rezip everything you extracted...then try flashing again...
Which version of CWM are you using? I've seen this on another Samsung device when I was using the wrong CWM. You need to be in CWM 6.
I had this error happen to me too, you need to odin back to stock and just flash your way back up to JB

[TUTORIAL]CWM Errors and solutions. Post all your CWM recovery related error here.

Hello everyone,
I saw a lot of people facing errors in CWM recovery while installing ROMs, themes, etc. So I decided to make a simple, short and clean thread to post some solutions which might help you in overcoming the errors.
Status 0 Error:
This error occurs due to some error in updater-binary. Replace the updater-binary from some other same type of zip you are flashing and it will work.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Status 1 Error:
Well this is one of the most rarest error that a person can get...but with my experience I came to know that this occurs because you dont have correct permissions set. Use correct perms in updater-script and done
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Status 6 Error:
The status 6 error mostly occurs when we edit an updater-script in windows text editor. This is because the windows text editor at the end of the updater-script creates a windows styled end of line which causes the error. The easiest solution is to write the updater-script in such a way that this error doesn't occurs. Try notepad++, change the end of line to unix style, unix style eol and this error won't occur
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Status 7 Error:
The most common error that most of the people face is this one.
Following are the reasons for it:
1. Something wrong in updater-script.
2. Corrupt zip.
3. Zip not made for device or couldn't recognize the device.
To overcome the first error, the only solution is to manually edit the updater-script and search for error or post your updater-script to some forum or thread or make new thread specifying your complete error.
To overcome the second error, the only solution is to re-download the whole zip.
To overcome the third error, just delete the first three lines from your updater-script stating something related to your device. Here's the lines related to my device, i.e., Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro, SK17i/a :
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "SK17i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SK17i" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "SK17a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SK17a" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "mango" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "mango");
Similar kind would be for your device too. And if not then the zip is simply not meant for your device.

Great thread,
Btw in status 6, we have to select eol as unix in npp, not just use it right
Added about status 1 error also
Cheers,
AJ
When there's 0,1 and then 6 and 7. Logic tells that there is 2-5, anybody ever heard of it?

Make sure you zipped all the folders with meta-inf and not zipped the parent fodder
