Hello, I've never flashed phones before, so I might have just make some obvious mistake, that I'm not aware of.
After using my XPS 4.3 for over 2 years it started lagging, so I wanted to switch to some custom ROM.
First I wanted to try XperianZe v3.0.5 , but after 2 days of constant fails, anything will do.
First I wanted to root, but Towelroot doesn't work for me (I'm currently staying in China, so I suspect it might be the Great Firewall of China blocking it's connection attempts), but I found another way. I downloaded newest Flashtools (0.9.22.0) and ftf images from the post, but flashtools doesn't see them, so I downloaded an older version of Flashtools (0.9.18.6) and flashed the kernel which made my phone fall into a bootloop. I downloaded whole image C5303_12.0.A.2.254_CE.ftf of stock version 4.1, flashed C530X_12.0.A.1.257 kernel on top of it, and run DooMLoRD script, which gave me root access.
Now I installed CWM from here and copied XperianZeV3.zip to internal storage. I disconnected my phone, entered recovery, factory reseted and chose install from zip. It doesn't matter which recovery I used: CWM Touch/ TWRP/ Philz - all gave the same result:
Code:
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /data/media/XperianZeV3.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
This is latest version of CWM_SP_4.4.1 that I could find.
Unable to bypass this problem I decided to unlock bootloader and while doing so get MoKee Marshmallow 60.1 . But Sony website told me that my particular phone cannot be unlocked. I tried to unlock it anyway, but fastboot doesn't see my device when it eneters flash-boot (and automatically exits after some time). I couldn't install Flashtool drivers, because of some error with no message, it might be because of Windows 10, maybe? Anyway as I understand from this tutorial there's no unofficial way of unlocking my phone.
The only thing that I found about Status 7 problem is to update CWM (but I'm using latest one, aren't I?), tell the cellphone to ignore the problem (but I'm afraid of bricking it). I don't really understand what is this problem related to, other that name change between Kitkat and earlier systems, but I don't know how to make it work.
Am I just doing something wrong?

Hi everyone
I recently updated to B609 and (as expected) my phone was un-rooted.
I decided it would be better for me to just install a ROM instead of waiting for a new way to ROOT every time a new OTA comes out. (I have seen some very interesting ones that include Xposed)
This would be the first time i install a ROM on one of my phones but i do know how to use custom recovery's and i will always keep a copy of a backup close so i can flash back when something goes wrong.
A problem i have with starting all of this: I can't seem to find a way to unlock the Bootloader on my phone.
I have looked online but i always get links for older versions/other phones/German stuff.
Second problem: The recovery. As far as i understand, there is no working TWRP for EMUI3.0. BUT there should be a working CMW recovery. Should i go fot CMW?
Third problem: Which ROM? There are 3 that grabbed my attention. Se7en-Rom (But it seems like it hasn't been updated in a while), My-RoM (which seems the most interesting for me at the moment) and Miui (which i just found out about). Which should i go with or should i use another one? I can already say that i want my phone Rooted and Xposed is something i would love to have back (since i used to have it on my previous phone).
Any advice and help would be appreciated

I have a P7-L10 with B609. I was able to successfully root it with RootGenius. When you root it, the bootloader is unlocked at the same time. As far as I can tell, the root is 100%. As for CWM, you can get it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/development/mods-tweaks-kernels-recoverys-emui-2-3-t2966670
TWRP doesn't work with B609/emui3.0.
My L10 has faulty flash memory and won't accept a custom recovery, so I can't test CWM or any custom ROMs. Perhaps others can advise. Good luck!

RootGenius was the first thing i tried. It went up to 66% then i got an error but that was a fully Chinese version.
I just tried it again with the one i found by using Google and it goes up to 72%, then tells me that the root has failed.
Which version did you use?
This is what I used and it worked fine (root genius): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789337
As for bootloader, as far as I know from, starting with firmware 133 (Emui 2.3) all devices have unlocked bootloader
CWM is the only custom recovery for the moment;
Did not try any custom ROM (I'm happy with stock ROM for the moment).
Cheers

That's the first one i tried out. The first few times it ended in an Error. I tried it again today and when my phone reboots during the process, RootGenius loses contact with my phone.
And there is a bootloader-ish thing, but the only options i have is reboot, factory reset and cache wipe.

Hmmm, strange problem. Assuming you have the latest version of HiSuite installed and your drivers are current, all I can suggest is trying again with RootGenius (I used version 1.8.7) with your firewall and antivirus disabled or perhaps trying with Vroot. If you do decide to try Vroot it probably won't work unless you disable your firewall and antivirus.

I disabled my firewall and antivirus and gave RootGenius another try. Normally it goes up to 71% and gives me the error. Now it went to 71%, rebooted and then it gave me the error. The weird part is that right before i get the error, it says the installation is complete.
Moved on to Vroot (which is called Iroot now apparently) . It took a while longer but it wasn't able to do it either.

Get in bootloader mode, if your bootloader is unlocked, it will be written and highlighted with red color. I will point out again, starting with firmware B133 (Emui 2.3) all bootloaders for L10 version (I don't know for Chinese versions) are unlocked
Cheers.
update to b615 and flash or just flash this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/development/b615-unlocked-boot-img-t3050926 and use rootgenius remove inmutable etc...

You were right! (not that i every doubted you). I found the problem i had: For some reason, i couldn't boot in bootloader trough my phone BUT i was able to do it with 'adb reboot bootloader'. After making some idiotic mistakes and having to re-flash the stock ROM, I finally was able to install My-RoM v3.3, its rooted, i have Xposed so i am happy
So thank everyone for the help!
I have been tearing my hair out for about a week with this problem. I'm sure the answer is here somewhere, but I'm a novice and I don't understand phone developer vocabulary. Hopefully someone can link me to a solution to my problem.
I have a Verizon LG G2 (VS980 4G) and I'm trying to install CyanogenMod on it. Here's the info from the software page in settings:
Android version 4.4.2
Baseband version VS98024A-M8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20046
Kernel version 3.4.0-perf [email protected]
Build number KOT49I.VS98024A
Software version VS98024A
I have followed these steps so far:
1. Rooted with towelroot
2. Installed SuperSU and BusyBox
3. Used AutoRec to install TWRP 2.7.0.0
4. Downloaded CM-10.2.0-vs980.zip to /sdcard/Download
When I boot into TWRP recovery and try to flash the zip from there, I get the following error message:
"assert failed: run_program("/system/bin/loki.sh") == 0
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/Download/cm-10.2.0-vs980.zip'
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/Download/cm-10.2.0-vs980.zip' "
And then when I try to reboot the system I get an error that shows the LG logo with the words "security error" underneath it, and the phone won't boot up. After that my only option is to do a factory hard reset, go back into TWRP and restore my backup.
When I bought the phone it was on Software version VS98027A, but I thought that might be the problem so I used the LG flash tool to download and flash the kdz file for VS98024A. This has not given me a new result, sadly.
I have read the install instructions on the CM page, but they describe an app called FreeGee, which I guess is supposed to install ClockworkMod. FreeGee says my phone isn't supported. CM's directions say if FreeGee doesn't work, I should use AutoRec, but they don't follow up with any TWRP-specific instructions. I have googled and youtubed for several days, but everything I find shows directions on how to root and install recovery, yet nothing on how to deal with this particular error message. Whenever I do find a thread that seems like it might be helpful, I can't understand the technical jargon involved.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Here's my advice, go back to stock again,the LG flash tool. When that completes, use Freedom Tools (its in Development) and use ioroot25 (link is in the aforementioned thread) to root device. Then use Freedom Tool to install twrp. I've used it many times and never had a problem. Re-download cm rom (perhaps bad download) and flash in twrp. I would suggest using a more current twrp (start with 2.7, DL newest twrp, flash, reboot recovery) then flash cm. Let me know how it goes!
Thanks for your help. I followed the ioroot and freedom tool steps no problem, but I don't know how to update twrp. The g2 isn't listed as a supported device on their website or in the twrp manager app. I searched the forum and found a thread about updating it, but every time I try to download the files, I get a message that says the download failed.
I downloaded a fresh copy of cyanogenmod and tried to flash with twrp2.7, but I got the same error message from my original post.

Huh, ok, well, first off here's the thread for twrp, make sure and flash the correct one for our device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2898705
Second, have you tried a different rom? I remember reading that jackpotcalvin's is the cm to use. Try his or a completely different one, just make sure and follow the op (some require different radios, just follow the op). But I would definitely upgrade twrp before trying anything else.

Okay, so thanks to the link you gave me, I have succeeded in updating TWRP to version 2.8.5.1. I tried once again to flash cm 10.2, with more error messages. Specifically, the error says:
assert failed: run_program("/system/bin/loki.sh") == 0
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/Download/cm-10.2.0-vs980.zip' (that line was in red text)
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/Download/cm-10.2.0-vs980.zip'
I chose that rom because it is the only one listed as stable on the CM page for the G2. This time it was a fresh download. After that failed, I looked up JackpotClavin and found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2702958
But it might as well be written in Greek because I don't understand much of it at all. I don't think I'd be comfortable doing all the command line stuff without a video tutorial or a more layman-friendly set of directions. So I didn't try that one.
Then I just started browsing the Development forum for a rom with easy install directions and found this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g2/development/rom-beanstalk-build-5-0015-t3001584
I followed the instructions and flashed it successfully, booted up successfully, and then I was bombarded with a never-ending series of popups that said Unfortunately, Google Play Services had stopped. So that Rom was unusable, but at least now I know that it is possible to flash a rom of some kind. I don't have my heart dead-set on CM, I just know that it's very popular and so I had hopes that it would be more stable than most. All I need is a stable rom that has working radios and the ability to use the native USB tether function without having to pay Big Red an extra fee for the privilege.
I have restored to stock 24A with TWRP 2.8.5.1. Any more pointers?
Thanks again for all your help. I can tell I'm making progress, just not sure how close I am to the light at the end of the tunnel.

Dude, I'm sorry for not reading closer to begin with, but ya, you're trying to flash a JB rom with a KK recovery. 2.7 and up are for kk only. I'm so sorry...
Did you flash a gapps zip with Beanstalk? Did you do a completely clean install?
If you still want to flash a 10.2 cm you're going to have to find the appropriate recovery, and there I'm of no use since I entered this phone on kk and don't know anything about its jb history. Also don't know about the USB tether part either (I don't use it) so you're probably going to have to do some searching, flashing, and experimentation.
But bright side is we've figured out why you couldn't flash the cm rom. Either stay on kk or above, or start scrolling through the dev section looking for jb recovery...
SUCCESS!
Last night I read a bit deeper into the CM11/12 thread and found a more noob-friendly breakdown of the directions on pages 4-6. I worked up my courage to dive into adb and it turned out to be easier than it looked. Another failed flash on the CM10.2 ROM left little doubt that the rom had to be the problem, and your last reply confirmed it. I went back to the CyanogenMod download page and grabbed a zip of CM11 and now I'm up and running!
Thank you so much again. I sent a donation to JackpotClavin, and I'd like to do so for you as well, if I could. I don't see a PayPal link in your signature, though.

Nah, bro, I'm good. Give it to the devs, they deserve it. Giving knowledge through experience is what xda is all about, pass it on when you can. Thank you, though!
final edit: finally got the officiall RUU to work
installing the microsoft files within this edit below allowed me to install the RUU rather than it auto-crashing after accepting the TOS (its in reference to another HTC phone but it still works for the 510)
and I just did this on the latest pre-Anniversary edition of Windows 10, for whatever reason the in-rom/phone installer would download about 56mb of an "update" and when telling it to install would reboot and get stuck on the bootloader screen (the screen you see when holding VOL down and PWR) and not proceed, not to mention it only was going to install 1.11.506.1, now I have the actual latest cricket version 1.11.506.8 installed
im not 100% certain if the following segmented edit file is needed or if you will be able to install the RUU directly overtop of CM or any other ROM you had, I would try first with the official RUU and if it only says "update" then install the ROM file in the segment below this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53081344
main reason for doing this is horrible battery life and annoying "finding GPS" issues with the CM11 versions for the 32bit GSM phone basically making it useless to utilize gmaps offline mode and my phone being drained entirely after a normal day usage vs the "bloated" stock ROM which is at 80% each day over the last week of each days use.
and zero SIM usability with the CM12.1 version making it virtually pointless, might as well just install a linux OS on it if that was the only choice.
================================================================
first edit:
found a copy of original non-updated cricket ROM here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57807126&postcount=10
===========================================
original post:
I have unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed.
I downloaded the stock zip from htcdev but its missing META-INF according to installing process in TWRP. trying to recover it wont work either because when you extract the zip file and put those in the TWRP backup folder, TWRP doesnt see it as a backup option
The custom "stock" debloated ROM's arent a suitable replacement because they are all built on 4.4.2 and don't have the dot 3 update which HTC pushed out for this phone with latest features/security.
do I have to relock the bootloader or what?
edit
answer posted at the top of the OP
===============
okay so the new issue is that HTC pushed out a system update from the stock but when I go to install it, it reloads and ends up in the bootloader but doesnt install, I relocked the bootloader but its not working
I even tried to go into the TWRP recovery and install the ZIP that was downloaded to the Android folder in the phone but that didnt work either
Okay.
So I have a Note 5 N920G. I'm 99% sure this is what the phone I have is, I bought this phone from Amazon India, pretty sure when I looked it up way back when, this was the one.
First ROM I ever installed was a Dr. Ketan Rom , Lollipop V8. I don't ever remember installing a BL/Modem for the same way back then.
Later I moved on to a Sick as Hell V3 Rom and I managed to get that installed just fine without getting a BL/Modem for the same as well.
**TODAY**
I have now tried to install the latest version of Dr Ketan's ROM N10 for my Note 5. It mentioned to install/upgrade the BL/Modem so I chose the one that is required for me phone, viz. the N920G BL/Modem.
Proceed to install. Rom installs just fine.
Proceed to reset/reboot. Get NOTHING. Stuck on an infinite loading screen.
Reboot phone, still nothing.
Get frustrated try to move to another ROM for the same phone in the same sub forum.
This one also has a Kernel and a CSC something that needs to be installed in order to try and boot this ROM. Proceed with everything and in order, no luck still....
NOW, even when I try to install the other ROMs, including Dr Ketan Roms or my previous Sick as Hell Rom that I was using earlier I am facing the error labelled :-
"set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed"
I just upgraded from TWRP 3.0.0.2 to the latest 3.1.1.X version that's out right now between these two installs (previous installation worked out just fine from what I can remember.)
I ALSO installed a new kernel since I was trying to install another rom when this one failed, and that rom required a kernel to be installed :-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/7-0-khongloi-nougat-rom-aod-edge-t3580620
Now since flashing this kernel (I assume that is what is giving me all these issues) NO ROM is installing without giving me the error above of set metadata.
A quick google search says that I should update my recovery to the latest... But it IS! I upgraded to the current latest 3.1.1.X that I am supposed to have, that I found from their website.
I am so beyond frustrated at this point in time. Can someone please help me figure this out?
Honestly I am so ****ing done right now, I would Paypal you my appreciation if you can get me to install a new ROM after getting out of this mess.
Hey there,
almost a year ago i rooted my device, tried it for a bit and then realized that i cant use my creditcard app without doing some weird stuff.
so i decided to unroot. everything worked. Now after a long time i wanted to do a normal system update to MIUI 13, but everytime i try to start the update using the devices updater,
i get a dialog saying something like "You device supports seamless system updates. Remember to select Slot A when you get prompted by TWRP" (roughly translated, its in german). I dont really understand why my device is still knowing that i user twrp, even after i removed it and reflashed the original fastboot thingy. (im not too familiar with all the rooting stuff)
I tried to flash again to twrp from my computer and install the update that way but that comes with its own problems and i would prefer to use the system updater rather than twrp.
Does any one have an idea why i get the meantioned dialog and how i can get rid of it to let it update normally?
I just realized that the updater is downloading a file called "xiaomi.eu_multi_HMK40Pro_Mi11i_V14 ... .zip". that looks like some unofficial rom to me, is it pulling it from somewhere else rather than the official xiamo servers maybe?
im really lost at this point.
sorry for some broken english here and there
it also says something about my system being encrypted and that i need to enter a password which never happens.
If it's fetching Xiaomi.eu rom that means you changed the rom from stock to the custom made EU version. If you did not, that most likely means that your device was originally the China version and the seller installed the EU version to provide you with the Google/Play Services.
In short: You are not using the official stock rom. Please post screenshots from your About Phone.
