[Solved] Cant flash any ROM's

Has anyone else run into an issue where it seems they cant flash anything at all? I just rooted and installed CWM 5.0.2.0. I have tried to flash 2-3 different roms and each time it comes back with this error:
"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo4g" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo4g" || getprop("ro.product.board") =="crespo4g"
E:Error in/sdcard/**rom file name here**
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted
Any idea how to get this to work? Did a full wipe of everything, tried toggle both signature and script asserts...
EDIT: Chalk this one up to sloppy flashing skills. After DLing the CWM app, and making sure CWM was installed properly, I have used the app to flash roms.

[Resolved] [Q] Rooting Samsung Galaxy Ace Help

I need some help rooting my Samsung Galaxy Ace. It's running Gingerbread 2.3.5 XWKS9
I tried rooting it before, and it worked like a charm, selecting zip, installing and done.
But I had to send it in for warranty, and when I got it back, they did a total wipe.
But when I try rooting it now I get:
Code:
Opening Update Package...
Installing Update...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-S5830" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-S5830" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-S5570" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-S5570" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-S5670" || getprop("ro.product.product") == "GT-S5670" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-B7510" || getprop("ro.product.product") == "GT-B7510"
E:Error in /sdcard/upd_1.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
I tried everything I could think of (wiping cache, other CWM etc.) but it wouldn't matter.
I already searched google for hours. Tried everything in this topic (seemed to be an exact case like mine):
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1537505
I hope anyone can help me

Please help me, I can't seem to figure it out by myself. I even tried editing some of the tried zip files.
The one who fixes it, will recieve a great present! A free Smily throug a private message!

Try flashing a stock ROM (2.3.4 f.ex) using ODIN and then try to root it.

I can't even seem to flash it using ODIN. Downloaded the OPS file, and a stock firmware. Followed a guide, but couldn't get it working.
Anyone got another idea?
EDIT:
It seems fixed. Tried again using ODIN, and it worked this time!

Back to CM10 from CM11 - A Shortcut

Whenever I find some spare time I use to switch rom. Flashollic Me!
Increment CM digits are always no task at all because developers are taking good care so that flash process is done right.
But when try to decrements cm digits - do not have options. Back to DDLF2 via mighty odin is the only way to start. No flash-able zip files to step back! There should exist some easy way to do the job. This is a way to do this but I believe more easier way exists.
From cm11 rebboot to recovery
Flash cm-Ker-10.2over11-BuildBox.zip from cwm
Reboot to recovery again
Clean user data, etc, etc
Flash any cm10 (I tried cm10.2) rom
If that well known error "status 7" appears go ahead and flash again.
Flash gapps accordingly (gapps for 4.1, 4.2, 4.3)
Reboot.
Yes, not caught by mighty odin. Bye bye odin. See you later in deep needs.
This is not my work. I moved things from here to there. No Dev thing.
The zip structure is taken from the work of David Rodero
The boot.img is from BuildBox
All credit goes to @rodero95 and @buildBox
Finally, good luck to all flashers.

another method:
open cm10(10.1 or 10,2).zip\META-INF\com\google\android
edit the updater-script
delete the device assert script
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");
then mount sdcard0 ,sdcard1 in cwm recovery and then chose the zip and flash. work for me

If you want to flash the rom without a pc, just google "how to flash rom without a computer" and look at the first link...the guide might help.
Otherwise, after you have rooted just install a custom recovery (like twrp or cwm) and flash the rom from your sd card. And make sure you wipe cache/data etc before flashing the new rom. (make a backup first)

This is my first time trying to install a ROM. When i try to install after wiping i get this error

I know that its possible installing rom by using heimdall but there is a gapps file. Do i flash gapps file after flashing rom?
Sent from my SCH-I800 using xda app-developers app

I'm not sure why you're getting that error. You're best bet would be to make sure you follow the instructions from whoever posted the rom and ask questions on the roms thread if you still are stuck...sorry I couldn't help directly

And yes, you flash the rom and then the gapps...this should also be in the OP directions wherever the rom was posted...(I would advise you to flash roms from xda forums because they have clear instructions and support)

So if i use heimdall to flash rom, how do i flash the gapps file?

I had a similar problem, but in my case the log said that my device was not a xt925 because i had cm11 for msm8960, the solution was to delete this line:
Code:
[I][B]assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "xt925" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "xt925" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "vanquish_u" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "vanquish_u" || abort("This package is for device: xt925,vanquish_u; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););
ifelse(is_mounted("/system"), unmount("/system"));
assert(getprop("ro.boot.secure_hardware") == "1" || abort("This package is for devices with 4.4 bootloader"););[/B][/I]
in the updater-script file inside the folder cm-12.1-20150810-NIGHTLY-xt925.zip\META-INF\com\google\android of your zip file, so it won't try to verify your device name and instead will install it as it is
REMEMBER USE THIS UNDER YOUR OWN RISK, DON'T BLAME ME FOR A NICE PAPER WEIGHT
I ALREADY HAD A KITKAT BOOTLOADER FROM A STOCK FIRMWARE and i tried this on a old device, so no harm if bricked, also i was sure that i downloaded the correct cm12.1 version for my mobile and, at last but not least, i knew how to unbrick it in case something went wrong
