Sometimes we can be sure any error in reading the contents, simple randomness. The "Status 7 Error" is one of the most common, and know how to fix it can be very useful. Let's see then how to fix it.
[Alert type = "info"] NOTE: This error usually occurs when going to install a custom ROM and have a device with root access, plus ClockworkMod Recovery [/ alert].
Procedure to fix
-
To begin the ROM extracted with a program like Winzip and still go to the folder named "META_INF" then continue to the subfolder "COM" and goes on to reach the called "GOOGLE". Within this last, you should find another folder called "android".
-
Locate the file in this folder called "updater -script" and rename it to "updater-Script.doc"
-
At this point, double click and open the renamed file. You may need to open Microsoft Word with the latest version.
-
When you open the file select the entire paragraph that begins with "assert" (first line) until == "coconust"), ie, the sixth line of text. Removes the selected text and save the file.
-
Now in the "android" folder opens this file and removes the ".doc" extension changed. To do this, simply renames and deletes only this part of the text.
-
Once you've done that returns to the main folder where you extracted the zip file, select the three files and compressed as zip with the "add" ...... "command. Rar "This gives you new zip packages like before removing it.
-
Now take the zip file you created and install as you had made before the error, and you'll no longer have this problem
Note: If the problem persists, try to verify if the error is due to the procedure, ie something you did wrong, so everything to the letter to avoid this type of error
