Hi every i've been trying to flash my tmobile HTC ONE S to ParanoidAndroid JellyBean v2.13,fromt this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890464
I unlocked(still s-on), rooted, and tried a couple different recoveries (CWM 5.8.31,5.8.24,5.8.15 etc. and TWRP 1.7, 2.2)
what I did was first unlock,then flash recovery, and root, then flash boot.img from the ROM package, and install from SDcard. However everytime I get a Status 7 error messege, and installation fails...
And one time I tried to install from CWM ROM manger from Google Play in the OS, still failed after it reboot and goes in to recovery.
Some people on the web says that this means I need a different or newer recovery, but I've probably tried all the main and newest versions.....
pls help! thnx in advance!! =)
nvm!!! I was stupid enough to download the ROM version for HTC ONE X..hahaha..

I kept getting flash issues after using the unlockr's root method on my Nexus S 4G, specifically the inability to flash roms due to a status 7 error.
BEFORE you run around searching every forum, or use someone else's old nandroid to revert to 2.3.1, or do any craziness... if you flashed Clockwork via fastboot, install ROM Manager from the market, and install the latest ClockworkMod recovery via Rom Manager, and give it another try.
Hopefully this is easy enough to find, that no one else has this problem.
Happy hunting
Hi,
This didn't help
I installed ROM Manage from Play Store and tried to install ClockworkMod recovery from ROM Manager. Howeve, it kept on getting stuck while installing ClockworkMod recovery....
Are there any other solutions for Status 7 error?
Flash the latest CWM manually via fastboot. Have a look at the Nexus S rooting guides, they all detail how to flash a custom recovery.
Yep, it was all about updating the CWM. In my case I had to update it to the one that supports touch mode (don't remember the version number). Once that was done all went quite smoothly.

I have a HTC Desire, and rooted long ago with Clockwork mod 2.5.0.7. Recently I want to upgrade it so I download Rom manager and start flashing the newest version 5.x from the menu.
However It's still showing 2.5.0.7 when I boot to the recovery even though the rom manager already said 5.x.
I tried o re-root with Unrevoke method, and add the newest img file but still doensn't help, the annoying 2.5.0.7 still showing.
Is there anyone that faced this problem before ? Please give me a hand... i'm really lost.
Try flashing the recovery img from your pc.
Thank you, but It turns out that the CM only works after I S-OFF my phone. Problems solved after hours trying to S-OFF
glad you sorted it
First of all,
I updated to 4.0.3
then i would like to root my phone..
I used a guide found on the nexusshacks.com/nexus-s-root/how-to-root-nexus-s-or-nexus-s-4g-on-ics-or-gingerbread/ and then i installed rom manager free from market and i tried flashing cwm recovery inside rom manager.
But rom manager was fc and i decided to google it to find an other way to install cwm recovery.
Then i found this guide nexusshacks.com/nexus-s-hacks/how-to-force-your-nexus-s-into-clockworkmod-recovery/ and i followed this exactly, hoping that it could be easy to flash the new 4.0.3 rom again.
When i try to open bootloader mode and select recovery a sparking android is showing up an then only the lights from the touch keys are glowing.!
When i press either (Vol- and Power) or Power Clockwork Mod recovery shows up and when i try to install zip from sd it shows status 7 installation aborted. I searched forums that proposed to wipe all data and dalwik data.
I did all these and also status7 shows up every time i try to flash a rom.
I ask for your help!!!
updated your cwm recovery to 5.x.x.x. and dont expect help or no one will help, ask for help instead.
you are right i wrote by mistake.

I suggest you to download the stock gingerbread for your model from Rom Manager and install it as update.zip. That will unroot your phone. So root it again and try flashing new roms (cm9 or ICS). You should flash kernel after flashing the rom.

Must make sure you have root. If your root is messed up you may not be able to install a custom recovery.

Use the latest espresso-common twrp by Andi.
Also keep in mind that you should never flash your device with incompatible recoveries or roms because it could get bricked. Don't flash stuff for a p5100 to your p5110; they are different devices.
Thank you... I changed the twrp and it worked like a charm..
