Can't flash KK ROMS - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
Recently I tried to flash PA Rom Beta (KK ROM) with CWM, and got the status 7 error - installation aborted.
Tried all the fixes that there is on the internet... Nothing works.
Tried to flash CM11 instead - same error, again.
Downloaded CM10.2 (JB ROM) and it works.
So I think that I'm not able to flash any KK 4.4 ROMs to my device.
Does it maybe have to be something with my Modem version, or the Recovery?
Help :crying:

I installed CWM Advanced Edition, but when I'm trying to enter it, i get "secure booting error"...
After a search, I found out that I need to flash the stock KDZ file for my device.
I've tried using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
But I'm getting an error that says "Please update R&D Tool" after choosing Upgrade Start. -_-
Is there maybe another tool that I can use for flashing the KDZ file?
Thanks a lot!

Already tried...

Unzip Rom, go into meta.inf and Google and updater script and open it in notepad++ and remove first 4 lines where it says about phone details don't touch anything else and save it and repack Rom using the new updated script and then flash it.

[Q] Updating Error - Rooted Nexus 7

Hi all, i've been trying to update my nexus 7 from 4.1.2 (JZO54k) to 4.2 (JOP40C), i had rooted my device with the toolkit from wugfresh, even when ota update keeps appearing, when i tried to do it, the instalation stops and appears the red triangle error. I tried to do it with the ADB method, but when the package is sendind from the ABD to the nexus, it appears
verifyng current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check ("/system/app/GooglePinyinIME.apk". "c3fd85ab52cd139b4d8440a6b06623451aa46210". "737423314e1a53013fb0c5f7568fb2f9998abdcf")
Installation aborted.
What can I do?
It does this because you'll modified or deleted system files. The OTA will not flash if you aren't stock.
You can always just download the stock image from Google and fastboot flash it.

You used the toolkit to root, just use it to return to stock. Download the latest version and just click return to stock

afaik yes, Another thing you could do is look around for a cwm flashable variant of the latest google rom, that or it's time to go to a custom rom

Are you rooted? The update should be in your /cache folder, you can move it to the sd storage and flash from recovery. You'll probably also need superuser 1.51 zip to flash after flashing the update as you will lose root.

Yes updated last night, seen a few people having issues so was holding off, but it was pretty straight forward. I ended up downloading the grouper.zip (ota) update from the thread above and the superuser 1.5.1 zip. Fully unroofed from the superuser app then flashed the grouper.zip and superuser zip in recovery.

thank u all for helping
I also had to use the Grouper.zip to take the update. That zip comments out a line in the install script that performed a verification check that many people had fail. The released ota update continually failed for me. I never unrooted first, just flashed grouper.zip in TWRP recovery. After booting back up, I went back into TWRP and flashed the Supersu1.51 zip and got root back. No data loss. This is on a wifi, stock rom & kernel, rooted and TWRP recovery. Now on JWR66Y and happy.

I believe this update was to address the bitcoin exploit found in Android and that was promised to be addressed soon.

Thats exactly what I used, although I didn't have any modifications, so unfortunately I am unable to say whether there would be any problems or not.

[Q] Custom ROM installation Error - 'Status 7 & Executing Updater binary"

Dear All,
I desperate need of help here. Sorry if I may sound Noob on this topic. I have international LG G2 (D802) - Rooted with custom recovery TWRP.
I'm not able install some custom roms based on Android 4.4.+ with error msg stating....
1. Error executing updater binary in zip
2. Status 7 . installation abort.
I did google on this subject and tried every single method from editing the binary file upto switching over the recovery (from TWRP to CWM) but still the problem exist
My guess is...... it may occur due to unlocked bootloader............. I don't know the status of my bootloader.......... just need help in unlocking the bootloader....
Just use search and not only google...
Flashing Philz recovery should help.
Aand you can not unlock the bootloader of a g2 btw.

I used to and still have the status 7 error often in galaxy s 2 and what u do is unpack rom and open update script in notepad ++ and remove the first 3 lines where it describes about get prop make sure to place the cursor on the start of first line and hold delete until the first 3 lines are removed and 4th lime sits in 1st line exactly without any further changes save it and repack it as it was before and try if it helps.

I went to stock and started over with the updated twrp with the new lok support. Finally able to flash a few things again.

Cant flash recovery..

Hi, I tried to flash twrp recovery with some help from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670 but it keeps saying fail.. I tried both options.
if rooted freegee is easier from app store, it gets proper automagically.
If trying to flash via cwm, get the recovery flashable zip from the thread and not the img. Doubt thats the case
Where did you get that awesome avatar btw?

Thanks awesome downloaded the zip file, could you please give me the steps on how to flash it ?
btw I created my avatar through this site http://www.faceyourmanga.com/editmangatar.php
sorry for my English I'm European .
BTW again, do I need an unlocked bootloader to flash roms like paranoid I'm on d802
"Keeps saying it failed" What failed, in what part? Also currently there's no way to unlock the bootloader, but use loki bypass instead, basically when you have recovery installed, you don't have to worry much about bootloader or loki.

Yes you can and flash them without any problems. Only in twrp settings tick the option to use different format command or it'll take like 10 minutes to wipe cache

Go to Philz thread for your phone.. In the FAQ he tells us how to get past that. It has to do with the updater script and alls you have to do is uncheck the option in recovery that says something like... Use old updater script... Something to that effect. Again read his FAQ and you'll see what I'm talking about.
I had the same thing happening with my phone just a few days ago and that fixes it.
