[Q] Cyanogenmod 7 status 7 question

Hey, I've searched through the cyanogenmod 7 thread looking for an answer and I couldn't find one that helped to solve my problem. Every time I try to install the rom I keep on getting the status 7 error message. I took the advice of some and formatted the phone, cleared the cache (all of them) twice each and still no luck. I saw one poster that recommend replacing the update script but the link he gave is no longer active. I'm very new to all of this and I've tried search as much as I could but came to find nothing that helped me out too much. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Use the CWM recovery linked in the CM7 thread
I've already installed the CWM Recovery and the Voodoo Kernal. I tried installing it after the CWM and I got the error so then I installed the Voodoo Kernal and got the same thing.
Ps. this is the CWM Recovery I'm using, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16115419&highlight=cwm+recovory#post16115419
(sorry it wont let me post the actual link, but its the CWM3_CM7
Get the one from the fascinate CM7 thread. Why are you worried about installing a voodoo kernel? Sounds like some more reading would be a good idea before flashing anything.
Is this the one you're referring to? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942021
I only went for the voodoo because it was suggested by someone else.

No. The Fascinate CM7 thread.
I did as you suggested and now it installs, but when I try to boot up, it is stuck at the "Galaxy S Gyanogen (mod)" screen. Thanks for your help again though, I've at least made some progress haha.

usb won't mount

Hi Guys,
My friend bricked his phone some how (he's using the htc one s on tmobile) and I myself am using the evo lte, thought i could be of some assistance, but I'm stuck as well...wonder if you guys could help me help him lol.
so I performed the tasks on post #8 from on how to "fix soft-brick" in the sticky, but being able to only access bootloader, and twrp recovery Im at a stall. While in recovery, i go the the options to mount, it won't mount my usb so that i can bring over a rom to flash in recovery. So my problem is that the phone won't mount to my computer so i can bring over a rom i downloaded on my computer to the phone.
if i reboot system it sticks at the htc develop splash page.
Im pretty stuck and hope u guys can me help my boy.
P.S. i told him next time when you flash, always make a backup....cuz he was trying to flash a jelly bean wip (i don't even think it was a rom for his phone).
Thanks in advance guys!
bump, anyone kind to help me out with this?
Thanks again, hope to help him out, but Im at my wits end because i keep on getting running into the same problem.

You're going to either need to push a rom to his phone using ADB, or perhaps flash an RUU using Fastboot. Are you familiar with either process? There may be other options, but I'm familiar with both of these scenarios and can at least point you in a direction. Lemme know!
Yeah ADB push is your best option right now. IIRC USB mount in recovery does not work due to kernel limitation. (I could be wrong but remember reading about it)

I agree with him, I kinda had the same problem your friend had and adb pushing a Rom is probably your best option right now...

Thank you very much guys, I am not too familiar with pushing thru adb but have been reading up on it through the development section and am ready to dive in.
I very much appreciate the input fellas, will keep you updated with the status of this so that others in this situation can benefit from this as well.
Thanks again!

Ok guys, heres the update as promised. Mission to restore was success!
First, I tried to push thru adb, but it would never stick, would always get hung up. Given, being my first time pushing thru adb i probably did it incorrectly. In fact, I managed to push the rom over to the sd card once, but was unable to flash it from recovery (CWM).
Here is how i fixed the problem of being bricked. I relocked the bootloader, using the "all in one kit" and then i downloaded the TMOUS RUU, booted the phone into bootloader and then ran the ruu's exe. Within 10 minutes it was back to bone stock.
I hope this helps fix others with the same problems, if you guys need any help, feel free to hit me up.
Thanks guys for the suggestions and pointing me in the right direction...I couldn't have done it without your help!

[Q] Telus Fascinate 4g sgh-t959p help!!

I am in desperate need of some help. I falshed a rom to my phone using odin that was not for my device, since I am new at this and actually don't know much about it. So I looked for guidance on this forum and messaged many ppl but I have not gotten a response. I have tried links on the forum for the roms but they are all removed from the links. I flashed a rom for a shg-t959d and it boots up but it will not read my sd card says blank card but its not balnk my computer reads it, also my storage says 0.00gb. I just really want my phone back to a working state any help would be greatly appreciated.
Find links?
Any luck with your phone? I am looking to root mine as well, but like you I can't find any working files, or anybody to help. I have also posted and emailed people with no response. Very frustrating for beginners. I would be great full if you could pass any info on to me, and I will do the same for you. Were you able to root your phone without problem, and if so how? I was going to use odin, then I got nervous, so I was going to try superoneclick. Any help you can give would be great.

[Q] Need help. Bricked My phone

OK so, I'm not a super noob but I'm also not an expert so I may understand certain terms.
Thank you so much for reading this and this thread is awesome because like me people out there really need help.
Really appreciate the work done here.
I usually follow you guys tutorials and stuff and always manage to come out successful without making a post like this one.
But I got to tell you this phone got me beat.
SO here we go.
I purchased a chinese mobile device, specifically a Tethin TX300 and after messing around with it I changed permission to the system/app folder and now it's stuck in a boot loop. Can anyone help? Any idea would be appreciated. Thanks
Isn't it possible to access the recovery on the phone to do a device reset?..
Thank you for your fast answer. Yes it is possible to access recovery mode. I have already tried to do a factory reset/wipe data but that didn't help. Any other ideas? Is it possible to restore permissions using adb ? Thanks
