My N7 was giving error during upgrade from LRX21P to LRX22G.
I am using NRT to sideload .
It shows error of "/system/bin/install-recovery.sh" has unexpected contents.
E: Error in /sideload/package.zip
(Status 7)
What is the issue?
Hi,
Status 7 errors are usually caused by the wrong custom recovery installed... But if you are sideloading a Lollipop OTA, then you should be using the stock recovery. If you aren't, that's likely the issue.
Status 7 is also caused by bad downloads/zip files. Try downloading again, or from somewhere else.
If you still need help, you will need to register on XDA and ask for help in this dedicated help thread in your device section,

Good luck!

Hi @ all XDA Users,

Can somebody/anybody help me?
You are aware there is no custom rom for the Honor 6 yet?
So I unrooted my Shield Tablet a while back without changing the stock recovery, and found out that whenever I try to install an OTA update it shows an error during instalation, rendering me unable to aquire the 2.2 and 2.2.1 updates. Already tried unrooting it, locking back the bootloader and so on. I can still sideload updates to the tablet but would like to gain back the convenience of OTA updates. Has anyone encountered similar issues? Could anyone help me fix this issue?
Saw the probable solution on another post.

In these forums somewhere I read that the unroot was done using Super su's full unroot option. However it apparently left behind a few files that caused the OTA to fail. So what he did was to uninstall Supersu, reinstall Supersu and update the binary. Then use full unroot function... Maybe it will work for you if you have unrooted using SUpersu...
Unrooting, locking the bootloader, and flashing the stock recovery doesn't allow you to take OTA's.
There is THIS thread, providing OTA files that can be flashed in TWRP or CWM. And are official files from Nvidia.
You have to flash these every time there's an OTA, or just flash a full stock image through fastboot, and never root or flash a recovery.
I'm having similar issues. I was rooted with CMW recovery but unable to install OTA update. I unrooted, and did a factory reset of the OS.
I tried to install stock recovery 2.2.1 (found on another thread here) with adb sideload command with the following result:
"cannot read "update.zip" (I tried the original filename and changed it to update.zip. Neither worked.) To test adb, I installed Supersu via the same method.
Trying to install the OTA update I receive the following:
Invalid command argument
Finding update package...
E: unknown volume for path [@/cache/recovery/block.map]
E: Can't mount @/cache/recovery/block.map
Installation aborted
I do apologize if I've missed something. Some of the other threads I've been using to learn are many pages long. Any help is appreciated.

Well it seems my second hand tablet has been rooted as well ... I've got the exact same problem that yours ...
Is there a way to go back as out of the box ?
I'm trying to install this custom kernel -https://forums.kali.org/showthread.php?23541-KERNEL-KaliNethunterLollipopKernel-
On my nexus 7 (2013) with Clockwork mod
I choose the option to "install update from zip file" (after I put the zip on my device , of course)
It displays the following

Finding update package...

Installation aborted.
Can someone give any clues as to why this may be happening, and how to fix it, or maybe just what I am doing wrong?
I've been messing around with this for hours with no success, I would be thankful for any information regarding this error.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA Assist Sorry since the kernel you have installed is from other forum we cant provide support to it ... its better if you post your issue in that forum thread
Good Luck !

Hi,
I've got TWRP 3.0.2-0 recovery installed with CM12.1.1 YOG7DAS2K1 and am receiving the OTA update for CM13.0 ZNH0EAS2JK Incremental but the installation fails with an error message in recovery saying it's expecting "YOGDAS2K1" level but finds "YOG4PAS1N0". This happens whether I re-enable the CM Recovery update or not.
I found a thread here on XDA linking to all CM official updates. I flashed the recovery from "cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2K1-bacon-signed-fastboot" successfully and then tried the update again but it still failed. Again, happens whether I have CM Recovery update enabled or not.
Verifying current system...
system partition has unexpected contents
E : Failed to install @/cache/recovery/block.map

So now I flashed TWRP again. Does someone know what I should do to install the update ? Preferably without returning to stock first.

Feeling a bit stupid really...
Right under my post in the list was this post which deals with my problem exactly. I just updated my phone using that guide.
Hello all!
I searched and found that TP-Link Neffos C7 doesn't have his own Forum, so I'm asking here.
Thing is, System updated to Android Oreo 8.1.0 and I was happy with Nougat 7.0. However, TP-Link removed the C7_NFUI7.0 ROM for this device on their support website, so I had to get the 7.0 Stock ROM from another website (I tried to contact support several times but they don't even bother to answer).
After trying to downgrade the Android Version from 8.1.0 to 7.0 via Stock Recovery, the system can't apply the downgrade.
I always get this message:
Code:
Android Recovery
Neffos/TP910A/C7
8.1.0/O11019/2756
user/release-keys
System check SUCCESS!!
--Install /sdcard/C7_NFUI7.0_TP910R2391.zip...

Installing update...
Warning: No file_contexts

E:Error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 7)
Installation aborted.
(I've had two Xperia phones before, and both with custom ROMs gotten from here, so I consider that I'm not that noob with the use of Recovery)
I tried to search the web on this error message, but the "solution" of changing the name in the update script doesn't work either.
I gave up on downgrading via recovery, so I tried to do it via SP Flash Tool. However, I need the Scatter.txt file that comes with the ROM and the one that comes with the Stock ROM doesn't work, SP Flash Tool gives the error message that this file is not valid.
I tried to obtain it via MTK Droid Tools but even after installing MTK and ADB Drivers, MTK Droid Tools doesn't recognize my device.
Any help will be very appreciated.
