E1001: Failed to update system image

[BlackHawk580]

Recently I got my Note 5 and have been enjoying it, unlocked and custom ROM and everything with the latest TWRP. But recently I've wanted to flash a different custom ROM and everytime I do so, I get the error message:
E10001: Failed to update system image.
Updater process ended with Error 7: Error installing zip file xxx (xxx is just the filename)

No matter what ROM I flash, whether it is the Xiaomi.eu ROM or any other custom AOSP/LOS ROM, I get the same message.
I need help as I have no idea what to do at all and am worried that the phone might be messed up permanently.

Download notepad++ and 7zip. Unzip the file, go to meta.inf/com/google/android and open updater script with notepad++. Select and delete the assert lines, and make sure to remove the empty space. Zip the file and flash it.

ensure your phone is note 5 pro, not note 5

Could you solve the error?

Same issue here. If you updated to the most recent firmware, then it's impossible to flash anything using the TWRP recoveries available. I get the same E1001 error. I don't think it has anything to do with the model or the ROM. Be careful, because trying to reflash a firmware package will result in a hard brick, and you need to use an ARB authorisation bypass to be able to restore your phone.

For now I have to stay on the latest Global ROM, nothing else I can do.

I tried this with the Xiaomi.eu ROM - no luck, same error. It's not about the ID of the device (TWRP reports that my device is indeed whyred), it's something else.

Yes. This triggers a hard brick.

Check whether you are using latest twrp or Orange fox recovery. If not ,then update it. I guess this should solve the problem.
