i get the same error. i believe it's because of the partition. u must flash this forumber one. i was pretty sure i had flashed it as i used to use this rom for a while but now i can't. so u just need to reflash the forumber partition
That error it's cause by either partition or wrong CWM recovery. I don't remember which...

This is how I solved the issue.
{A} backup IMEI using 5irom tool.
[1] I downloaded official B138, flashed using dload method.Reboot phone
[2] downloaded official B518 .flashed [upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3]. Reboot phone
[3]rooted the phone using super one click.
[4]downloaded CMW recovery and flashed.
entered download mode [volume up+power]
wiped factory/partition.
in mount and storage>format =cache.data & system.
[5]choose zip from sdcard ,selected forumber partition zip and instal.
[6]AGAIN choose zip from sdcard ,selected forumber partition zip and instal.
[7] choose zip from sdcard > cm10.2 for u8800 version 13.zip
[8]flashed gapps.
[9]reboot system
this method worked for me after it kept hanging on ideos logo every time i flashed the rom. long method but works. Don't forget to backup your imei.
the same problem

2-copied the zip file as it is "WW_epaduser_10_4_3_7_UpdateLauncher.ZIP" and also copied whats in it which is "TW_epad-user-10.4.3.7.zip"
3.got the exclamation mark which is telling me there is an update
4.restart
5.It went automatically to the custom recovery CWM
6.I assumed I need to factory reset/and clear dalvik
7.then install from sdcard
8.tried "WW_epaduser_10_4_3_7_UpdateLauncher.ZIP" and failed immediatly
9.tried "TW_epad-user-10.4.3.7.zip" and it took some time then failed saying
"script aborted (no error message)E:Error in /sdcard/WW_epad-user-10.4.3.7.zip (status 7)

Check that the SD card is formatted to FAT32 if NTFS it will give that error if memory serves me correctly.

Hello there. First of all I am a noob when it comes to flashing custom ROMs. Q&As and Guides didn't help me...
I have a Defy + MB526 , rooted ( flashed sbf because I have bl7). Stock 2.3.6
I have installed latest 2nd init using the apk.
USB debugging enabled.
The problem is that I can't flash any zip from CyanogenDefy custom recovery( Accessed using android bootmenu at reboot).
I've wiped everything before trying to flash Cm 10.2 JB. It says error 7 installation aborted every time. I did try a bunch of other versions and roms.
I created a nandroid backup using the custom recovery but I couldn't use it to recover, first because of a md5 mismatch (which I fixed) and then because of another error at the end ( some stuff couldnt be recovered). When I boot up I can't open any app, it says " Application not installed". I've tried using the 2GB card that came with the phone, same thing happens. I ended up erasing everything
What am I doing wrong? Please help me
This is ny first android phone, never installed any custom ROM before but I read its harder for the Defy though.
Come on, 60 views and no replies? Any help would be very appreciated!

Hello, thanks for your reply.
I did root my phone about 2 years ago, but good to know such an app exists.
I didn't open the archives, I just pasted it on my phone's SD card. I did try again by formatting the card inside the phone and re downloading. Same thing happens.

SD Card does work fine.
In the meantime, I tried flashing a rom again. This time I get error status 0;
After that I've successfully flashed the latest twrp, wiped, tried to install but still status 0.
I'm trying to install the MoKee rom.
EDIT:
I tried installing CM 10.2.
I get the same errors like for MoKee:
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(Status 0)
*Verifying filesystems...
*Verifying partition sizes...
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/cm-10.2-20131020-NI

Greetings all,
So I have been trying to redo my Wanam KitKat install due to the foldermount issue and I ran into a couple of issues. Now before someone comments about that awesome app from the app store, yes I use it I just have other reasons to try and get a clean install going.
So first things first, I Odin flash the latest CWM by Sameer, do the necessary wipes and start the install. I then get this error message:
set_perm: some changes failed
E:Error in /data/media/0/ROM Install/wanamlite-v40-nb3.zip
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I power down the device and Odin flash the latest CWM Touch version and I still get the above message. I then flash Philz Touch 6.07.9 and voila, it installs without an issue. Now one of my other issues to resolve this foldermount issue is because any recovery other than the Philz version mentioned (even the latest Philz) fails to flash any files and has an issue seeing my internal storage.
So I Odin back to my earliest ICS version and try from there. Now the CWM recoveries see the correct folder path but I still get the above error and I did manage to get this code as well:
I: using /data/media for sdcard/0/clockworkmod/ . last_install_path.
I: Cant partition non mmcblk device: /devices/platform/dw_mmc.2/mmc_host/mmc2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have tried everything to try and get this to work as it should but I am stuck. Right now I have flashed the old Philz I have and restored a nandroid and the phone is fine. How do I get past these errors?
Any help would be greatly appreciated .
*edit*
I should mention that after the ICS flash I did a factory reset and wiped everything and still had the above errors...
Anyone?
CWM fails with a lot of roms. TWRP is better.
Hi, thanks for the input. Sadly TWRP also fails with the same error:
set_perm: some changes failed
E:Error in /data/media/0/ROM Install/wanamlite-v40-nb3.zip
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted

Hence the reason for my asking. Its not a bad zip so redownloading it will not get rid of the problem. My recoveries are also good zips otherwise they would not flash. Does anyone have any idea what is going on?
Hello all,
I'm fairly new to rooting and the like (only ever rooted a phone once before), and I need some help getting this figured out.
I've got a ROM successfully installed on the device, but wifi and bluetooth don't work, and trying to install the newest version seems to fail.
I'm running:
ROM: Slim Bean version "Slim-4.3.build.2.2-OFFICIAL-1764"
Kernel: 3.4.67-Slim-4.3-JWR-Build_1.1+
Recovery: Clockworkmod Recovery v6.0.2.3
In CWM, I've tried installing the following images:
Slim-mako-4.4.2.build.3-OFFICIAL3095.zip
pa_mako-4.2-BETA1-20140318.zip
When trying to install the Paranoid Android ROM, it gives the following errors:
Warning: no file contexts
Warning: No file_contextsset_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in ---insert file location here---
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Then it seems to get a bit farther with the SlimBean 4.4.2 install, but says the following:
Format and Mount System, Mount Data. . .
Symlinks and permissions. . .
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E: Error in ---file location again---
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted.
However, when I go back and re-install the 4.3 build, it just plows on through and finishes in a handful of seconds.
Anyone have any idea what I'm missing here? Or what I might need to try?
Yup.Since you said you are running CWM 6.0.2.3...update to latest recovery before updating. CWM latest 6.0.4.7. Also do a clean flash.Your issue will be resolved.
