[Completed] Status 7 problems - XDA Assist

I am trying to put a more advanced rom from your site on to my Samsung 7.7 p6810.
Each time I try to install one I get a Status 7 error.
So far I have tried
lollipop_cm-12.1_20151006-unofficial-p6810.zip
omni-6.0.1_20160115-p6810-homemade.zip
Both have that error.
I started with cwm-20120710-p6810.tar
I thought that twrp might not produce the error so loaded:-
twrp-2.6.3.0-p6810.tar
I am using twrp and that still has the error.
I used Odin3_v3.10.6 to load the cwm and later the twrp.
I copied root.zip to the 7.7 and flashed that with the initially installed CWM
Can some kind soul suggest what I might be doing wrong? I see something about editing scrips in the zip files. I guess I could to that but (a) I am warned it is dangerous if the software is for the wrong machine and that is what I understand a Status 7 signal is saying.
And (b) it is going to be very tedious if I have to edit every new zip file as I experiment with your (nightly) upgrades.
Killing the Status 7 must be the way forward.
I received a nice warm welcome from Brandon when I signed up for XDA a few days ago. Let's hope someone has a nice warm solution.

Forgive me for bumping but the message has had 52 view and not a single post of help.
In desperation I have tried editing those first few lines of the updater script with Notepad ++ but I still get a Status 7 error.
I'd love to post in the Samsung 7.7 thread as it does seem more active but the rules do not permit it. Can someone help me get moving please?
Tony

I'll add a bit more information for the support gent, or lady, who takes up this thread.
Firstly I am getting no blue line on the TWRP progress bar - whereas I do on the Restore that I have to use rather more often than I would like.
My error message on a file that has those top lines removed from the script says:-
Applyparsedperms ; lstetfilecon of system/lost+found to ubject_r:system_file:s0 failed. Operation not supported on transport set metadata_recursive: some changed failed.
Then the Status 7 msg.
Does this help?
Tony

After 99 views over two days and no help I have reposted this thread in the Q&A thread.
Sorry folk at XDA. I do find getting started here is confusing. Assist and Q&A for Help do sound rather similar to this noobie over here in the UK.
All answers ought now go to my new thread so they are contained for the next person with a Status 7 problem - NOT HERE.

Flash your device specific custom recovery latest version,
If you updated to Android versions flash recovery for updated version
Flash your device specific custom rom

At least that is a reply - albeit after I moved to a different thread.
Thanks again.

Updater-script help!

Hi guys, I have my set of mods for a few of the HTC phones and I want to create an updater-script that checks for a file before flashing the mod. If the file exists, continue. If not, abort. I have a really round-about way of doing it right now (I'm sure there is a better, more efficient way to do it) but I'm hoping for a little bit of direction, as I have been working on this for the better part of 8 hours and not getting very far.
I will attach what I have so far, the last thing last_log told me from recovery was error in line 8, col 21. Any help would be great, thanks!
Help bump
still need help?
Dude, this is all set, right? (Also, I need to post 10 items before I'm allowed to post in some forums... so this makes 2 down 8 to go!)

You definitely helped me out with this, but I didn't include it because to check for the file I need can't be done without a ton more work since the file is located in /root, which isnt available in recovery.

Need assistance from someone (anyone) who can download from XDA-Developers Please

Here's the deal. I'm trying to update Android on my Touch Pro 2 (this issue isn't TP2 specific, so don't stop here if you don't own one ) I cant boot into the build I just installed (It hangs on the "XDANDROID" screen) I think my problem is happening because I did not do a clean install. I figured it would work if I simply replaced the old files with the now ones from this thread now I'm at work and do not have the file available. My work has the downloads blocked from XDA Developers, so here's my question:
Can someone go download the zip/rar file in the first post of this thread and tell me which files are included in the zip or post a screen shot so I can delete all the extra stuff I have.
I'm also open to other helpful suggestions if you have any.
TIA

[Q] Flashing problems.

Hello everybody.
I've scoured these forums for a few days now, in hope that I can resolve this very frustrating problem but, alas, I've failed in my mission and have had to resort to picking your brains. (sorry about that!)
I'm running Cyanogen mod 7 on my T-Mobile G2 GSM and so far the ROM has worked brilliantly. The only reason I'd like to change is because of the poor GPS. I've tried a patch and the command fix but both of them didn't work for me.
Anyway... When I boot into Clockwork mod recovery (and wipe all the necessary files) and try to load my new ROM, I'm presented with an error message similar to this:
------------------------------------
finding update package...
opening update package...
E:error in / [ROM NAME & LOCATION]
Install Aborted
------------------------------------
I've tried downloading the rom several times via different websites, tried different ROMs all together, followed every bit of advice I could muster on here, and even purchased a new memory card... Just in case.
It's really frustrating though because I have to use recovery to get Cyanogen back (I need it to tether or I have no internet at home!) and that takes so long each time.
As you can probably imagine, it's really frustrating .
Any help would be massively appreciated!
Thanks again,
Bacoon.

on sdcard /mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod folder there is a log take a look at it
I think you have to flash a corresponding CWM by fastboot utility
Thank you for getting back to me!
There are 2 that I can see. Should i go for Recovery.log or Report.log?
It's also giving me lots of options to view it... Should I use html viewer? It seems like the only thing that'd work.
Cheers!
EDIT:
I used the HTML viewer on "Report.log" and it came up with a HUUUGE list. Anything in particular I should be looking for, mate?

report.log is generated from cwm recovery menu to report them errors
It says open ROM Manager to repport the issue
recovery.log in a general log to describe CWM activity
I think easy way is to change to a CWM that will allow you to flash that ROM
(I can't tell you exactly because I don't have links)
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
to see/edit files use notepad or better Notepad++ that's a decent editor/viewer best Notepad replacement
I don't know give me a link to that log or better think to change CWM recovery...

Some Problems with Theming and Setting up ADB on Linux...

Hey Guys,
I'm having a couple of issues with setting up adb on my Linux Box (Xubuntu 12.04) I downloaded Android SDK and installed Platform-Tools. I've tried most of the methods on XDA but when I "./adb devices" I get nothing. I have a Micromax A87 which is a rebranded version of Mito A78 (Anybody heard of it???).
I would like help with another issue too. I recently got into theming, I edited some .pngs (not 9s) and compiled it, then signed it and zipaligned it but when I put it in /system/app and rebooted, it worked only partially. The one's with the default mode as RGB work, but the one's with the default mode "indexed" didn't. Does Anybody have any Ideas???
BTW, I use Gimp and I change the mode to RGB before editing them.
Thanks in Advance...

Might be worth reading this before starting another thread - [GUIDE] - XDA New User Guide - Getting started on XDA, I know you're new, you're obviously eager to do something based on your other thread, but keep this in mind, nothing you've got to ask (which so far) hasn't been asked or discussed many a time before, so if themeing is what you want to get into, click the second link in my sig, read it, bookmark it then try and put into practice what it is you're trying to learn, and if at first you don't succeed, starting a new thread to ask a question that you'll probably figure out the answer to whilst you wait for someone to reply with an answer you could have probably found by typing your thread title into Google, isn't going to speed things up or help you learn.
There are some links to using apktool with Linux in my guide btw which should be of help.
THANKS, XPERIENCED!!!
I already read your theming guide and about 5 others on XDA Forums and I decided to get a better understanding of Themes.
I still face an issue, I can't setup ADB! I've tried most of the methods on XDA Forums and everything I can think of, it isn't working. I did use Google, most of them simply don't work. My question is not "How do I set-up ADB on my Linux?", It's "I can't setup ADB, can anybody help me?"
*sigh* Can anybody please help me???
EDIT: Solved it, adb working now!

Hi
Can you specify what the changes made by your fix are?
This fix solved my bad quality calls! Thank you.
no luck...
I flashed it... No luck..sounds still muffled...
Even worst than before... Anyone knows how to roll back it
I myself listened the voice from other phone and it sucks...the volume is low and muffled..it needs to be taken on high priority... I attend too many business calls n the main function doesn't works properly..
Also you should make a YouTube video with step by step instruction...
I had no trouble with flashing by twrp. I think the call quality is better now.
Fine!
Did it flash correctly?
Im wondering, did it flash correctly? According to the dialog there was an error first but it said successfull? Pls help. Thx
Perfect
The script is good and does the job, I had to put the build.prop file and the zip file on the root of the sdcard otherwise it wouldn't flash.
Nope
Fix does nor work. Build.prop does not change at all. Tried in /sdcard/ and /sdcard/0 without succes (although the installer claims succes, build.prop does not change). Still have the issue that during call the other end cannot hear me unless I am on speaker.
I'm having the same issue
- Noise
- The other side unable to hear me.
- tested using google voice search/voice recording software unable to detect any voice.
- using Speakephone and Headset are ok.
what have changed
The issue start to happen after I install OxygenOS. I've change to CM12.1 the issue remain.
I've follow the fix on this thread and confirm the result on build.prop, not working for me.
i read somewhere that I need to edit .XML, i have rooted the phone but everytime i save the .xml it says access denied. I really hoping this issue can be solve soon, it start irritate me.
Error in flashing the lowmicfix
Hello, sorry if this is a noob question. I tried the LowMicFix, placing the two files included into the .rar file in the Downloads folder. I then rebooted the phone into recovery, clicked Apply Update, selected the zip file and I get this message:
HTML:
Finding update package..
opening update package..
verifying update packageā€¦
E: footer is wrong
E: signature is wrong
installation aborted.
Have I done something wrong? I really want to fix this problem.
Thank you in advance!
Works like a charm...
Works like a charm
You saved me, I thought my mobile gets screwed
And now works like new
Thanks again

Unfortunately It's a known issue that's taking ages to being solved by CM/OPO team.
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-64
How do I make the change?
I Downloaded the files and put them on my phone in the Internal Storage folder and I rebooted the device, is that all?
What exactly does this mod do? Increase the mic volume or use another mic or something else?
Yet to fix
I bought my OPO a couple of months ago and had no problems with it till the last weak when people started to complain that they just don`t hear me. I never dropped it, never damaged it.
I`m really keen to fix it. I applied all the possible fix instructions (both root editing the system files anf patches) but to luck. I wiped my OPO completely a number of times. I flashed various versions of both CM and OxygenOS.
Is there a chance that it might be fixed with the coming updates?
Hi,
Does not work for me.
It recognize the zip file when i load it from recovery it start the process but it gives me an error and wtire the following:
" Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Veryifing update package...
E:footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted"
i am with cm12
What can i do?

You will need to be rooted and flash with a custom recovery.

-Unlock bootloader (will wipe all data )
-Flash custom recovery (twrp etc)
-Root device
-Then you can flash these files using your custom recovery. IT SOLVED my issue of low mic.
I'm running the latest CM12.1 Snapshot, YOG4PAO236-bacon, and my call quality has been fine on various ROMs until this one. The mic appears to be quite low and everyone I've talked to can barely hear me. Does anyone know if this fix will help this particular problem? I cannot seem to find many answers for this specific ROM release.
EDIT: Manually made the changes and the mic is perfect.
Finally I found a solution...

After a few months that I needed to use the speaker for calls or bluetooth headset, and tens of times trying all the fixes that I could find on the World Wild Web (the Internet) even trying at least 15 other roms for my oneplus one.
Finally I found a solution...
15 usd on eBay for a module of the main speaker and 20 minutes for replacing the module
According to YouTube video of disassemble
And my one is like new...
Yeah Baby, Yeah....
