the easiest way would be to mount the sd via recovery and just re-transfer a rom to flash.

Steps to install : (follow precisely)
1. Make sure you have root if not follow this guide
2.Now we need to install CWM (volatile one not permenant) to do that :
Download the CWM attachement and put it in the sdcard​Reboot into Recovery by turning phone off then pressing the Volume Up+ Home button + Power Button​Select apply update from sd card (navigate by volume buttons and select by home button)​Select CWM-try1.zip and it will bring you to CWM recovery​Do a Nandroid backup and transfer it to the pc (So if anything goes wrong you have a working device)​Once in CWM you know what you got to do : Wipe data , cache and Davelik cache​Partition sd card (at least 256mb for the SD-ext to function correctly) this will erease all the sd contents​then go to mounts and storage and mount sd card​Transfer the ROM to the sdcard​Go back to the main menu and select install zip from sd card and select the zip​Install and reboot et voila!​This is an alpha version so i need your feedback and if any thing goes wrong please provide logcat​

Thanks! Any screen shots available before I dive in? Cheers

did someone test it s far. Im surprised why here is no activity. As there is low activity around the Y pro we should be happy about any dev. Maybe this thread should have a better place.

is this a rom created for the galaxy y pro or is it a stock rom modified??

Hi everyone! I tried to install this rom on my S. Y Pro, I follow carefully the steps but when installing "android error status 7" appears. I successfully restored my cellphone using CWM Bakup... But I really want to test this rom. Any suggestion?
Thanks!

not working, gives this error while installing. : assert failed: package_extract_failed("boot.img, "/tmp/boot.img")
E:Error in /sdcard/midoBB's_pheaton.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
I also tried to delete 'boot.img' from the .zip file but still no luck!
please find a solution because I can't find any custom rom for this phone.

I was also experiencing this issue. Apparently, the installation stucks at:
Code:
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
I was able to fix this issue by changing the updater-script inside the package.
It is located at META-INF/com/google/android.
Locate the lines: (near the bottom)
Code:
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
Change them to:
Code:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5");
I reverted back to the stock ROM because the keyboard layout was qwerty instead of azerty, and my language wasn't available.
Maybe midoBB can make an update?
That would be great.

I have a question... I need to know how to "Transfer the ROM to the sdcard" while Recovery...

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

installing update....
symlink:some symlink failed
E:Error in /sdcard/cm-10-20121010-unofficial-infuse4g.zip
(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

[Q] Can't install P.A.C. All-in-one

So...
I meant to install the PAC All-In-One ROM.
Darktitor specified that I had to flash a stock ROM through Odin. After making sure that I could flash a CF-Root DDLF2 instead of my stock XWLF2, I put my phone in Download Mode and flashed DDLF2 through Odin. I went in recovery mode, wiped data and formatted /system. I then tried installing the ROM (P.A.C. All-in-one, as I already specified elsewhere) through the "Install zip from SD card" button, but it displays the following errors: "assert failed: getprop ("ro.product.device") == "galaxysl" | | getprop ("ro.build.product") == "galaxysl"", repeated for GT-I9003 and GT-I9003L (yeah, it IS a Galaxy SL), and E:Error in /sdcard/i9003 blah,blah,blah (the filename of the ROM, obviously).
What should I do now?
EDIT: The signature verification for the update also fails.
MOAR EDIT: Same problem both with Dhiru's Alpha 7 and the LEMON build.

Try not to format the /system before flash.when u format the /system,build.prop was remove and the signature verification will failed.just wipe data/factury reset,wipe cache and then flash the rom./system will be formated automatically during the flash.

I managed to solve the problem on my own, but thank you very much! (I just had to flash XXKPE and DDLF2 before installing PAC.)

Please help ! Assert failed status 7

Hello every body
I have a problem during installing a new ROM
i have samsung galaxy SL i9003 and i this phone was in CM 10.1 alpha 8
I tried to upgrade my phone to CM10.2 Rom
and this is the link of the ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2431402
first i return to DDLF2 then go to recovery mode
i do wipe data / factory rest
After that when i select the Rom zip folder from Sdcard to install
the phone tell me :
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "captivate" ||
getprop.("ro.build.product") || ... (and so on)
E:Error in /sdcard/#whateverpackage#.zip
Status 7
Installation aborted.
there is any help ??

don't format system after flashing ddlf2. directly install 10.2 over it.
procedure =
1) flash ddlf2
2) root it
3) go to recovery and directly install 10.2.
4) wipe data/reset. (optional)
(don't format anything or else it will give you that error)
hope this helps you.

i will try and tell you
but in the link of The ROM the installation instruction is :
1. Flash CWM Compatible Kernel (CF ROOT)
2. Reboot to Recovery.
3. Wipe Data / Factory Reset.
4. Select the ROM zip from your SD Card and flash.
5. The device will reboot and finish flashing.
6. Reboot to Recovery Again.
7. Flash Google Apps.
8. Reboot
so wipe data/factory rest is before installing the ROM zip and that what i did

flash cf root for ddlf2 first. and you posted on the wrong section.

formatting the system will remove the baseband which wont allow 10.2 to install. i'd encountered the same problem 2 days back and i'd solved the way I mentioned above.. to cross check the error again (2nd time) I formatted the system after clean flash of ddlf2 and I got the same error.. just installing 10.2 directly over ddlf2 won't cause any problem.

"wiping date/factory reset " won't cause any problem. just don't format any thing.. if you want you can format SD Card for your satisfaction.. but don't format system or else that will lead to that error.

hey bro flash only cf-root or bam kernel and don't format system if the installation failed you will have to flash DDLF2 again.

THE SAME ERROR occur again ~~!!
I tried more that 10 times to return to DDLF2 then upgrade my phone to cm10.2 dhirru Rom 4.3 android and the same error appear in every time !!
ASSERT FAILED status 7
Now moment i returned to DDLF2 and upgrade my phone to cm10.2 alpha 8 dhirru ROM and it success upgrading
It's the only Rom which flashing occur Successfully
So , there is NO HELP ?!

Asset failed. Mean either wrong rom or wrong phone.
I saw your error show "captivate". Are you sure you in the right forum..? Btw. Here is galaxy sl gt-i9003 and 9003L

you try bypass the assert check by delete those line in rom zip file, the file is updater-script in folder
"CM10.1-GalaxySL-JDQ39E-Alpha7/META-INF/com/google/android"
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxysl" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "galaxysl" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9003" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-I9003" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9003L" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-I9003L");
open up the zip without unzip it, just open with winrar than edit than save.
this is a try, never try it before for our phone.

although, you have flash through, but that still weird to have error status 7.
btw, the correct step should be factory reset than flash the zip, yous is flash the zip than factory reset.......

yes
i did first Wipe Data / Factory Reset two times each one follow the other then i flashed the Rom zip

Working method (tried several times with different roms):
-flash DDLF2
-flash cfroot
-recovery mode (the green one)
-flash your rom, then you'll be bringed to the new version of cwm (the blue one)
-wipe data/factory reset
-format system
-flash the rom

Hi all:
I'm also getting this issue lately, and I use to solve it going to mounts and storage and mounting all the filesystems, then try again.
Looks like the updater script can't mount the file systems automatically or something lately and so it gives that error.
Hope this solves your issue.
BTW, I also saw it extrange that the assert of the zip you were flashing indicated captivate, our device codename for CyanogenMod is galaxysl, not captivate, make sure you're flashing the right zip. (Also, captivate is not p970 either, so you should have mistakenly downloaded the zip from somewhere else).
