[SOLVED] STUCK in Recovery/Bootloader - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.
On my i9020a I was running a stock ROM, came home to root and flash my favorite oxygen before I headed out to the bar and ran into a small problem.
I unlocked the bootloader, pushed the superuser.zip using cmd now in my directions from nexusshacks.com it says to reboot the phone then go about flashing custom ROMS etc.
Well being in a rush, I flashed the superuser.zip then went ahead and preloaded my ROM of choice, wiped everything like you normally would on a clean install and the phone wont take any files im trying to flash.
so I'm stuck in recovery and bootloader and I guess I need to push a file using cmd?
When trying to flash Oxygen this is the message I get:
NOTE: this was after I tried to rename it "update.zip" and I still receive the same error**
"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo" || getprop("ro.product.board") == "crespo"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

That happened to me, I just had the wrong clockworkmod installed that's why i kept getting that error. I had the nexus s 4g version, and then I switched and it worked!

[Q] Error when flashing ROM?

Im trying to flash the superlite rom by vincom but every time i try to flash it throws out an error.
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") ==
getprop("ro.product.device") == "skyrocket"
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(status 7)
*verifying filesystems...
*verifying partition sizes...
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/superlite_cm10_jb_v
Injecting TWRP into boot image...
TWRP injection complete
It says the flash is successful but the phone doesn't boot after flash. I have checked the md5 of the ROM, wiped everything, basically followed all the instruction in vincoms post to the letter but no dice. I'm on rogers.
Error 7 is assert protection it's seeing your phone model is different from the phone model in the updater script of the rom meaning either A. Turn off assert checks or B. Do you own a skyrocket and not a 989?

How do I go about turning off assert checks? My phone model is SGH-I727R so yes, skyrocket
Also, could the problem be that I am using twrp 2.1.2? Im not sure how to flash 2.2.0 onto my system, google searches are unreliable and installing via goomanager does not work for me

I have never used TWRP but you should be able to flash the newer version in recovery just as you would to update CWM.

Did you've wiped everything before flashing?

I tried flashing the amonra recovery multiple times, but my phone just boots into a black screen. I've checked, however, and my phone doesn't have a hitachi screen which could be causing that. I'm going to try a IHO recovery with custom kernel.
(edit)
I tried flashing both IcySnap and hephappy's genetICS ROMs on the IHO recovery and I keep getting status 7 error.

Exactly thats the problem, above he is refering to a optimus v recovery, so the thing is that the recovery only allows to flash roms for the phone it recognizes, so my guess is he wiil be able to flash an optimus V rom...
That's the same thing that happened with a custom recovery for my thrive, in only allowed to install roms for the lg thrive, but then when i changed the recovery for standard for optimus one,, i was able to flash roms
You are using a foreign device, do not flash !

HTC One X stuck in boot loop

Hey guys,
So I was trying to flash Cyanogenmod 10.1 to my HTC One X and something went horribly wrong. Now my phone has no rom in the SD card and I never got to the point of making a nandroid backup. The phone boots up and is stuck in the "this build is for development purposes only" mode but I can get into the bootloader by holding down power+volume keys. I have TWRP recovery installed. I was wondering what I can do to restore my phone into normal working mode. I have Hanson2000's all in one kit as well. I really appreciate your help (and please let me know what information you need).
Thanks!
Did you factory reset in bootloader? If you did that has corrupted your sd card and you'll need to format it in Windows.

Sorry to keep asking questions, what would I put on it after I mount it?
Once it's formatted, copy a ROM onto it so you can flash it. If you're s-on, and have the most recent hboot, you need to manually flash the boot.img after flashing the ROM, that might be why cm didn't boot for you.

I manually flashed the boot.img and also mounted the CM zip. The install still keeps failing. I did a factory reset, did a wipe of cache and Dalvik cache, and then tried the install. This is the error I get:

Been looking to try a new recovery, thanks.
Edit: Quick question, is it okay to flash this using recovery tools? I would assume so, but the instructions make no mention of it. Am I just better off flashing it in TWRP or CWM recovery?
I only wish I would have tried this this sooner...my volume keys would have appreciated it.

You only flash the zip in recovery using either TWRP or CWM. Flash it, then reboot recovery.
If you are using the .tar.md5 file, flash that in odin and it'll overwrite the recovery image.
Please help, just flashed it using Flashify and the phone only boots in Odin mode. Is there a way to phuse a recovery file and install it?

All you have to do is flash it like you would a rom. Unless I am misunderstanding the instructions.

It's a known issue, many people are going to have the problem.
Pull the update-binary from another rom, or anything that does flash with the recovery, and replace the one in the rom of your choice with that one.
This has nothing to do with the recovery itself, and Phil can't do anything about it on his end. Rom builders have to update the script for it to work on this CWM base.
I know mastamoon has an unofficial cwm 6.0.4.5 recovery for use, I'm sure his kit kat rom likely has a working update-binary, try to flash that rom with this recovery. If it works, there's your answer.
