Unable to flash kernel

For some reason I am unable to flash kernels and ROMs. I am still rooted and unlocked so I'm not sure what the problem is. I've tried both TWRP and CWM.
EDIT: I should also note that the phone reboots when I try to flash.

Are you also S-OFF? It really shouldn't matter, though.

No, never have.

This has happened to me before try flashing Twrp again or another thing that worked for me was flashing a Rom without a custom kernel and usually fixed the problem for me weird

No luck. I relocked and unlocked. I tried flashing a ROM without a kernel and the same thing happens... The phone reboots. The only thing I really have left to try is to RUU back to stock and start over. I was able to flash a kernel using fastboot though.

what ROM and kernel are you trying to flash?

It was just the wolfpack kernel, but I got it now by flashing with fastboot... Recovery still won't flash ROMs and Kernels though.

that is very odd. can you download twrp and flash it in fastboot and try again? I know this has been an issue on other devices and apparently it can be fixed by flashing the recovery in fastboot.

Strange issue indeed. I ended up having to completely start from scratch to get it to work (RUU > Unlock > Flash)

Wait wait what? If you wanna flash stock, flash it with RSD and get the firmware from the stock thread somewhere here. That works.

[q] cannot install cm 11!! :(

Hi guys I downloaded CM 11 from cyanogenmod.org for the Atrix HD and when I try to download it I get the error ''Status 7'' with CWM Recovery. Have you guys been able to install it with the file from the web site?? Please help :crying:

Are you running the latest recovery?

Phil recovery iss more up to date then the cwm itself

Like I mention in every one of these threads, Status 7 is, at least 99% of the time, a bad download. Redownload and verify the MD5 checksum.
The MD5 for the official nightly is "513639551c586888db38bc9b17c7dab2". Use this program to verify the MD5 checksum.

Thank you. I just flashed that recovery and it worked.

I'm having the same problem with every single 4.4 and 4.4.x rom. I've tried removing the lines of code method already, running 6.0.2.8 cwm

4.4 needs the latest CWM to install. Try using Philz Touch Recovery or install the latest img from the Clockwork website.

I don't know if any of you guys solved your issues but you need to download cm11 onto external SD card then download philz touch version of cwm also on ESD card. Flash philz touch in your already existing cwm whatever version that may be. I forgot if it will boot back into recovery automatically but get back into recovery. If you are soft bricked get back in recovery by holding the power and vol up button I think and just flash rom as normal wipe data/cache/dalvik etc. That's how fixed my status 7 and flashed OSE 4.4.2 and loving it. Hope I helped.

So I was able to update my recovery but now every single rom that I try to flash ends up stuck at the motorola logo. I don't know what to do. I can still get into recovery but no rom works.

Try flashing Phil's Recovery, it should be version 6.0.4.5. Once I flashed Phil's I have not had a failed flash of any 4.4 Rom.
Here is the link in case you need it.

Maybe try going back to stock and starting over. Whenever I have strange problems like this and everything checks out, I revert to stock and start over.

Try flashing the bell stock ROM, then Philz, then a custom rom. I assume your phone boots with the stock ROM properly and you receive no errors when flashing a custom ROM.

To clear something up -- does your phone boot after flashing a fastboot? If no, you need to format the internal sd and change it's mount point to /data/media (use Philz CWM to do all that) -- that's a common error after downgrading from a 4.2+ rom to a 4.1.2- rom.

Yep, just boot into recovery and make nandroid backup saved to the external sd before you flash anything (you risk wiping it accidentally if stored to the internal sd). That way if anything goes wrong all you have to do is boot into recovery and restore your backup.
