So when I tried flashing the rom it gave me an error "No file_contextssymlink: some symlinks failed (status 7) Installation aborted"
so after wiping data cache and dalvik, I tried reflashing my previous 4.3 rom, and It gave me the same error! although I flashed it yesterday and it worked fine. help? Is there anyway I can add roms unto my phone while in recovery?
I'm using CWM as my recovery.

I had a similar problem what worked for me was to flash Philz recovery (what I was on when seeing the same error message u described) then flash back to CWM, U should be able to find the zip file on xda if not I'll upload it.

OK Solved.
1. Download latest CWM for your device - http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
2. Reboot into bootloader (
adb reboot bootloader
Click to expand...

or just power off and hold bottom volume button)
3. use
fastboot boot RECOVERY YOU JUST DOWNLOADED

4. Flash the 4.4 update... it will work now.

Did you type "fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-mako.img"? because it seems like you typed "recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-mako.img" or something that starts with it.
Make sure your device is in Bootloader while typing this.

How do you Flash this because I was thinking of flashing Royalginger
Flash it the way you flash any recovery, via fastboot or in the terminal emulator.

Store just the .img on your SDcard, then from ADB commands.
Code:
adb shell
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

from within the Clockwork ROM manager it will only pick up officially supported recoveries. You must boot into recovery to see what version [actual] it is .

Because it is more "fool proof" to flash it manually. The flashing method do work but flashing manually is always recommended.

Many of you are aware of the status 7 installation abort when trying to install a new rom
Ive been tinkering since last night trying to get miui 2.10.12 on my nexus 7 and every time I get a "Installation Abort (Status 7)
how do I get it to finish installation?
ive tried with multiple roms, CM10, MIUI, Kang all have same result
I have clockwork mod installed, from rom manager
I made sure I wipe data and cache and also davlik cache
any suggestions?
and i thank everyone in advance
I think you will hopefully get more joy posting in the Q&A section.
I have read that it can be fixed by fastbooting stock and then re-rooting though. If you can make backups first, you should, because this will wipe everything.

download TWRP for the Nexus 7 (grouper) Here : http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/103
Since your rooted you can use a simple app to flash the Image. Download and install the free app here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790150&highlight=flash+gui
Open the free app and select the option for Recovery Image. Hit Browse and find the recovery image you downloaded and select it.Once finished hit flash image. It will ask you to confirm this image is a recovery image. Hit yes and it'll flash.
Then reboot to recovery, you can do this by using Terminal Emulator from the market issue this command
Code:
su *hit enter*
adb reboot recovery
If that doesnt work.. remove "adb" I forget if you need it or not :S
This should put you into TWRP Recovery.. go ahead and flash your ROM. Make sure you follow the proper procedure. I recommend this
1.Wipe data/Factory Reset
2. Wipe Cache Partition
3.Wipe Dalvik Cache
4. Format /System
then proceed to flash the ROM and Gapps. and Reboot.

If you're going that route.. you might as well just use fastboot to reflash recovery instead of the app.
Download the same image i linked to earily. While in the bootloader issue this command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery.img
Make sure you have the Command Prompt in the same directory as the recovery image.
So say its in your downloads folder on your computer open CMD and cd to that directory.
Code:
cd C:\Users\Name\Downloads
Or just open yoru downloads folder and Shift + Right click and select "open command window here" then issue the fastboot command.

Ill write you up a quick tutorial.
First download this zip it contains adb and its .dll's needed to be executed and fastboot.exe for flashing
http://db.tt/EOwGUAPV
Unzip it and put that TWRP image in the same folder.
Then in that folder Shift + Right click and select open command prompt here.
Then type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
This will boot you into the bootloader. Once in the bootloader do this command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery.img
Hopefully your smart enough to realize that means type in the name of the recovery not exactly what that says.. for instance openrecovery-twrp... etc etc.
Then once its finished writing the recovery hit the volume up until the "Start" Says Recovery Mode. Then hit the power button. You should now be booting in the TWRP. Then flash your ROM.

I am stuck in Bootloader/Recovery mode, i was installing another Room (Android 4.2.1 Linaro ) , and fallowing the instructions like i usually do,
when i stupidly formated the SD card with the ROM in it, ... i did that because the many Rom installations was giving me troubles , always adding one more layer in the SD card , the last time i opened the file explorer, the Root was like SD CARD/0/0/0/0/0/0/files of the system, so i end up erasing the SD Card on the recovery menu .
Now i cant push the ZIP files to the root of the card , because i cant use the debugging function to connect Nexus 7 toolkit , what are my options ?
Any one as a suggestion that can spare ? i would be much obliged, tank you

I recently tried to flash PA on my nexus.
Installed cwm on my phone. Then downloaded the PA ROM and moved to the device storage.
Rebooted into CWM and performed all the wipes.
I accidentally wiped the system and the internel partitions too.
when i tried to install ROM from sdcard. it says "NO FILES FOUND"
Iam stuck here. Phone wont boot into Android... any suggestions? please help!
How did you wipe system within CWM?
But since you say you wiped internal partitions too, it seems to me that you wiped your internal emulated sdcard... so I think your only option now is to flash stock images again... Read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
If you don't want to flash the stock images you can also push a rom to your phone with adb while booted in a custom recovery
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/
Thanks guys. Found a solution.
Flashed TWRP and sideloaded the ROM file. And flashed it.
Earlier the same process with CWM was not successful. Now the phone is loaded with PA ROM!

no worry... download the nexus 4 twrp latest img from their site, and flash it to your N4
what you needed:
twrp img file
some n4 rom
adb and fastboot
instructions:
boot to fastboot, vol key down + powerbutton when n4 is off.
on your comp, , dos/terminal - fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
reboot in recovery
select the adb side load from advanced tab in the twrp.
on your comp - adb sideload rom.zip

did you wipe using fastboot erase command? if so, you need to re-format to the android supported file system to access the partitions!
try installing the twrp recovery and perform 'FORMAT DATA' from wipe. then install ROM.

Hi, I'm having the same problem with my Nexus 4 and I have TWRP V 2.6.3.0 but I'm not sure how to push any rom to my phone because it's not showing up under my computer in Windows. How do I push roms to my Nexus 4? I'm stuck at the Google boot screen when I try to boot (Flashed Dalvik Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, and normal cache) and I of course don't have any roms on my phone after I wiped all of the partitons. Help me plz

can u get into recovery? did u check changing your USB Cable? The original nexus usb cable sucks, try another one. If you can access the fastboot/adb then it will be pretty simple..

Thanks for asking mate i got it done... :good:
I tried to update a rom by dirty flashing but there was a problem when I tried to install the zip, now I cant get past the google logo. I have TWRP recovery and I can get into that.. What shall I do? I have a nandroid from back when I first rooted the device. Whats the best way to get everything working again while still keeping all my recent sd card data the same.

if you have the previous working rom in your storage, just flash it. if not, you can push it to your device via the adb push option in twrp. you should always keep the last working rom zip in your storage just in case.

I wish I didnt delete the last working one when downloading the new one.. So do I just push the rom by adb? Any guides?

Try a data factory reset/wipe cache in recovery and reboot. You should be able to get into recovery.

type this when you are in twrp and have the fastboot cmd window open
adb push "filename.extension" /sdcard/"filename.extension"
then flash the rom
alternatively, you can use sideload.
