Alright, so... I'm trying to flash CM 11 on a GT-N5100 device but even that I installed the custom recovery (tried both CWM and PhilZ) it says I'm on a wrong device. On CWM it was saying "The package is for N5100 and you are in a N5110, update aborted". And on PhilZ it says "This package is for kona3g, kona3gxx and you are on a konawifi, operation cancelled."
Now what am I supposed to do? I just can't install CM 11??? So sad...

So i am completely unable to flash any rom to my nVidia Shield Tablet. When I try to flash any rom to my device I get the error status 7. It says that it trying to flash "shieldtablet" but the device is "wx_na_wf." I've tried to remove the verification and I get the installation aborted. Do you guys know what is going on and where I can go to get some help?
Luckily there is a Forum for your device. The first link is to the specific forum for your device. The second link is for the forum section where you should post up your question. The members there will be better able to assist you.

Hi there,
I currently have AOSP Neat Rom Android version 4.4.4 on the i9100 device. I am considering the option to restore my nandroid backup of Android version 2.3.3 made in ClockWorkMod Recovery v4.0.0.2. However, I cannot find the firmware that matches the CSC I9100OZSKF4 here:
[http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/rom-guide-official-i9100-firmwares-lpe-t1075278]
I also tried looking on samfirmware.com/samsung-updates.com/androidfirmwares.net/sammobile.com but I cannot find a match. Some links are invalid now on the xda thread including the one for ZSKF4.
This is what *#1234# showed before I flashed the custom rom:
PDA: I9100ZSKF4
PHONE: I9100XXKE4
CSC: I9100OZSKF4
I want to go back to exactly this firmware with my nandroid backup of all apps/data/logs. All back ups are saved on computer and can be transferred into the phone via selecting MTP.
I thought of these options but I am not sure which is best or correct in my situation:
(1) If there is a restore to factory settings option in the recovery or settings, do I use it? Then re-root the device in android 2.3.3 and restore backup using clockworkmod included with the root files?
(2) Or if restoring to the original stock rom (factory settings) is not an option, do I find the closest GB firmware to what I want and flash it using Odin?
I also looked here for help but only JB/ICS is mentioned:
[http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/guide-26-12-flash-stock-firmware-rom-t2365701]
(3) I have Team Win Recovery Project v2.7.1.0 currently for AOSP Neat Rom. Because my backup file is made in ClockWorkMod Recovery v4.0.0.2, I have to flash CWM before I can restore. I am not sure if I can even use the newest CWM to restore an old CWM backup. I am not sure if this is the best way and am very troubled.
I posted some questions already in this thread "[Q&A][SGS2][Newbies][Experienced Users][RCs] New members friendly Q&A thread". I was thinking this might be a more general question about restoring to stock rom and thought I can also ask here as well to get some insights on where to research next or at least get a confirmation that my thought process is on the right track.
Thank you so much for your time. I have been quite frantic due to the issues I encountered, so please forgive my constant posts.

Hey Guys! So here's my problem today... You see my friend wanted a new ROM for his galaxy Y. And I, being a geek; accepted. Now when I flashed CWM, it worked fine at first but when I tried to reboot it at the CWM menu it says "Root access is missing. Root device. THIS CANNOT BE UNDONE." and there are 2 options either "-No" or "Yes - Root device (/system/xbin.".. Now, no matter what I choose it still wont boot up completely and open CWM. How do I fix this??? I don't want to ruin my friends new phone!! HELP!
It's title is "CWM-based recovery V6.0.5.3"
Thank you for using XDA Assist.
You should be asking your question in the device specific forum or in the forum for the Rom you are using. In most Development sections of each device specific forum you will find a thread on recoveries you can also ask in there or in the Q&A section for the device.
XDA Assist is here to guide you and point you in the direction you need to go.

Thank you and good luck

P.S. I will tell you that you should have selected NO when it first asked you if the device was already rooted, which it must have been since you installed custom recovery.
Hello, i want to know how to install a rom in TWRP which does not verify the build.prop file and just install without any device verification. I get status 7 error. Is there any rom which would install right away.
Any which does that or if somebody is able to create a simple rom which can help me and many other people. Would be very grateful.

Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
This thread linked below is supposed to root your device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sam...-to-root-galaxy-a5-a500fu-lollipop-5-t3137613
The CM12.1 that I'm finding is probably the one you already have, it's the only one here for your device so it won't do you any good for me to link you there.
You can try posting your issue in the A5 Q&A forum linked below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/help
If that forum doesn't help, you can try posting your question in the forum linked below.

The experts there may be able to help.
