[GUIDE] Fix Status 7 while flashing ROMs

I assume at least half of Android users get Error status 7 while flashing ROMs. This can be explained in 2 reasons.

Quote:

Number 1:The developer of the ROM was too stupid to fix this mistake

or

Quote:

Number 2: You are tying to port a ROM and those errors come to you

So lets start fixing Status 7.

Quote:

This can happen because the ROM isn't meant for your device. To fix this extract the ROM open META-INF com google android updater-script with Notepad++Find the line assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "device namer" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "devicename" ||. Change the device name to the name of your device. Example change assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "flyer" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "flyer" || to assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "grouper" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "grouper" ||

If you don't know Grouper is the code name for the nexus 7. So you need to find the code name for your device. It can be found easyly on the web.

And that's it. Hope i helped. leave a Thanks
