Status 7 usually means you are using the wrong update-binary.

Thank you so much!!! After a lot... A LOT of failed attempts at cooking a GB rom for my G2 I finally have success!!
I created a edify_def for the g2 and I believe that solved the problem I had. I finally see what you mean yes the update-binary was wrong. I get it now!!
Thank you again!

Hi all

I'm having the same problem. I used the kitchen to modify a stock rom for the I747 and when flashing the ROM, i get the following:

assert failed: write_raw_image ("/tmp/boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblkop7")

error in /sdcard/d2att_signed_1012.zip
(Status 7)

Any suggestions? I am new to this, so any help would be great.

Thanks

me too, but I think this should be caused by a wrong boot.img.

Okay The Solution is Here

So I have found The Solution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:cowboy:



Open the zip with winrar and find: /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script

Open it and edit this via Notepad++ only :

assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));


To this:

assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
ui_print("Flashing Boot.img...");
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5");
ui_print("Kernel imaged flashed...");
ui_print(" ");
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));

And Remember if you are getting the error assert failed less_than_int(xxxxxxx, getprop("ro.build.date.utc"))); then again open in notepad++ and delete these lines. It should work just fine then!!! Hit Thanx if you like my 2 cent advise

    until i copied it to my SD card and trying to flash, i will get the following messsage

    assert failed: write_raw_image("tmp/boot.img","boot")

    For us that know little can you elaborate and what that means exactly?

    Per your previous answer I tried using an updater based on other devs work and I still get the same error on my g2.
    I just wanted to add that I do run the error check and it says the update binary fine. No errors.

    Update-binary is not the update-script.

    The update-binary file is supposed to be included with the updater-script and contains all the command implementations that are used in the script... however there are three main types of update-binary and you have to know which one to include. They are mostly differentiated by the number of parameters supported for the 'mount' command for your updater-script.
