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.

I am having trouble, and since I cant post on the page where this should be asked. (this is my first post) I am asking here hoping that somebody will look...
I have rooted my verizon S3 and it works great... I am however trying to install a CM10 Rom on my device. I have followed the instructions and get all the way to selecting the zip on the sdcard. it finds it, it opens it and after about 20 seconds it gives me a status 7 error and says error in XXXXXX\XXXXX .zip
I have done all the steps perfectly and have formatted and wiped it twice trying this... I even have my backup in place...
I have tried 3 or 4 different cm10 roms and they all give me the same error... What am i over looking?
Thanks
I think you need to flash a CWM/kexec hybrid recovery.
Download the app EZ Recovery and flash the hybrid CWM 6.0.1.0

Well if he made the nooby mistake to flash cm10 with a non kexec recovery ..i think he should abandon his hopes of installing cm10 considerong the lost IMEI issue

nope and now im stuck boot looping TWRP after trying what you suggested unsuccessfully.
I appreciate the help... any ideas how I can get out of TWRP back to CWM so I can restore a backup?

You could always Odin back to stock then re-root and install cwm again and restore your backup. May be an easier way not sure. But back up your files on a PC if you do that.

I don't know how you are blaming me when I specifically told you to flash a ClockworkMod/Kexec recovery... not TWRP.

I am working with Skyrocket I727R (the rogers phone), and have installed LiquidSmooth 4.1.2 which I must say works very well. I just wanted to try another rom and update to JB 4.2.2.
I thought when I could not flash JellyBeer and Paranoid Android getting error 7 that it was due to the Assert line in the updater-script. But after removing the Assert Line, it still would not flash. I also found out I cannot flash any of the Roms. I am using TWRP 2440. which I had to install through Odin as the TWRP.zip file would not flash properly with CWM recovery. It said it completed successfully but on reboot nothng would happen, so I had to install the TWRP.tar through ODIN. Could it be my SD card, or a problem with recovery? Should I try a different version of TWRP?
Thanks for any help.
The twrp version you're using is very old. New roms won't flash on it. The latest is 2.5.x.x

I updated TWRP using Goo manager as suggested. I tried installing Revolt which does not have an assert line. It failed. Error with updater-binary.
Tried installing Beanstalk (newest version). Also had error with update-binary. Then I edited the updater-script removing the assert line. Eureka, it worked.

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.

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?

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.

I thought it meant that the zip was corrupted so i downloaded on PC again. Transferred to SD and tried to install following the same stepsand got the error again. After that I tried to install another ROM(Validus 5.1) and still got the error. Decided to restore and see if i could get help before trying again. Any ideas what is wrong?

I am currently using TWRP, but I have used PhilzTouch in the past. They both work pretty well. TWRP has bigger buttons that are spaced out better and has an easier interface to use. PhilzTouch has some other features but isn't as polished. It is just a matter of personal preference. Some Roms will have a recommended recovery listed, though.
Also, to make sure that the zip you download isn't corrupted, check the md5 of the zip you download against the md5 on the download page.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
Biggest advantage of using Phillz touch is that it can detect OTG cable,so you can flash ROMs from USB device as well;on the other hand, TWRP allows you to flash 10 zips at the same time,it will release the overhead of selecting Zip one after another manually. So choose your options wisely.
Edit:-
One more thing I would like to add,Phillz touch blackhawk supports dual-booting through next kernel

Just wanted to say thanks again to jrc2. I went with TWRP because backup to sd card was not working on CWM and Philz. Backup would start and in the middle of backing up data or system tab would just reboot. But TWRP looks ok and flashed with no problems.
