[TUTORIAL]CWM Errors and how to fix them

13:12 Alex 2 Comments



Hello everyone,
I saw a lot of people facing errors in CWM recovery while installing ROMs, themes, etc. So I decided to make a simple, short and clean tut to post some solutions which might help you in overcoming the errors.

Status 0 Error:

This error occurs due to some error in updater-binary. Replace the updater-binary from some other same type of zip you are flashing and it will work. 
Status 1 Error:

Well this is one of the most rarest error that a person can get...but with my experience I came to know that this occurs because you don't have correct permissions set. Use correct perms in updater-script and done 
Status 6 Error:

The status 6 error mostly occurs when we edit an updater-script in windows text editor. This is because the windows text editor at the end of the updater-script creates a windows styled end of line which causes the error. The easiest solution is to write the updater-script in such a way that this error doesn't occurs. Try notepad++, change the end of line to unix style, unix style eol and this error won't occur 
Status 7 Error:

The most common error that most of the people face is this one.
Following are the reasons for it:
1. Something wrong in updater-script.
2. Corrupt zip.
3. Zip not made for device or couldn't recognize the device.

To overcome the first error, the only solution is to manually edit the updater-script and search for error or post your updater-script to some forum or thread or make new thread specifying your complete error.

To overcome the second error, the only solution is to re-download the whole zip.

To overcome the third error, just delete the first three lines from your updater-script stating something related to your device. Here's the lines related to my device, i.e., Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro, SK17i/a :

Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "SK17i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SK17i" || 
       getprop("ro.product.device") == "SK17a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SK17a" || 
       getprop("ro.product.device") == "mango" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "mango");

 Similar kind would be for your device too. And if not then the zip is simply not meant for your device.
