[Q] StockMOD ROM stuck at SG3 screen - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm trying to install StockMOD ROM using the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2504903
I flash the modem, do a factory reset, flash the ROM, then flash the insecure kernel. When I reboot, I get stuck on the SG3 load screen and it won't go any further. I've left it sitting for over 15 minutes, so I'm pretty sure it's stuck. I tried rebooting, but I still get stuck. I've also repeated the instructions 3 times so far with the same results. I also redownloaded the ROM to make sure there weren't any problems (the download is 1.14GB on both)
One thing that I've noticed is when I install the ROM, the AROMA loads fine and I'm able to make all of my selections. When I install, it finishes within a couple of seconds. It says it successfully installed, but I get the message: assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2tmo" ||
get prop("ro.build.product") == "d2tmo" || get prop("ro.build.product") == "d2att" || get prop("ro.build.product") == "d2att" || get prop("ro.build.product") == "d2att"
Has anyone else had this problem? I'm running a rooted AT&T Galaxy S3, coming from CM11. My CWM is v6.0.4.7 if it matters. I have the stock boot loader.
Can @saranhai or someone else on Team Inferno give me a little help?
Thanks.

It's not installing properly because your device is not supported. Did you try deleting the assert lines from the updater script to see if that helps?

That's the updater script in META-INF\com\google\android? I'll try that.
Thanks!

That did it. Thanks!

HELP! error when flashing rom

i'm getting a very strange error when trying to flash any 4.03 rom. so far i've tried buglessbeast, and codename android, also a rom from p3droid, and he fixed the error when removing the line from the build.prop
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "
maguro" || getprop("ro.build.product") ==
"maguro"
E:Error in /sdcard/pete_maguro_ota_02-17-12.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
evidently if you remove the line from the build.prop as p3droid did it can be fixed. but i don't want to have to ask every single dev to do this just for me,
and obviously theres something up with my device thats screwing this up.
so how can i make my device work here.
I had/have android revolution hd installed right now, but i am making sure to do a full wipe through CWM before flashing the new roms

That error is consistent with an earlier beta of Touch CWM but was fixed in the latest version.
Flash 5.8.0.2 either from zip or via my ToolKit which includes it and it should fix your flashing problems

[Q] CyanogenMod Alpha5 won't flash

I've followed the instructions down to the letter and it still won't flash. It says installation aborted: getpropgetpropgetpropgetprop or something along those lines.
This isn't my first ICS flash, I've done it dozens of times, but this problem has stumped me.
I'm using the direct boot CWM5 kernel that was described in the instructions: http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/tools.html
I'm currently running El29 Blazer 4.0.
have you tried to download the zip file again. It may be corrupted
If this is not your first time then you know all the procedures to flashing an ICS rom.
there are wipe scripts out there you can use
double check md5
try another el26CWM recovery
hey flash cm7 first if you really desperate
odin a stock ICS rom first
Just got to do keep trying but safely
Probably a bad download. Re-download the zip.
I think it is a bad download or it didn't complete check how big the file is if it is really small like less than a hundred megabytes just download it again.
Just fyi I've tried all of those methods and still no results. It keeps saying, with every ICS rom I try and flash:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "
epic4gtouch " l l getprop("ro.build.product") == "
epic 4gtouch l l getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9100" ll getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-I9100" l l getprop("ro.product.device") ==

It's the correct size and I downloaded it multiple times but it's not only this ROM that won't flash it's actually all ICS roms. It used to work and I haven't done anything wrong with it, I swear , so I don't know why all of a sudden it's not working anymore.
May be you should odin one-click back to EL29 and try starting over?
Only time iv seen that error was with a rogue recovery. Even tho its based on cwm it won't work.

I used the instructed kernel with the cwm built into it. It was 5.0.2.7 with the blue theme. It wasn't rogue though, from what I know, here's a link to it: http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/tools.html
I used this and followed the instructions and I still can't flash ANY ICS roms.
That's the right one. Weird.
did you try going back to stock GB?

This error just means that the assert script failed to verify your phone device id. It looks for the build.prop to identify your phone so that it wont be installed on the wrong phone. A simple way to get stock build.prop use one of sfhub's odin one click. Once done let it boot up and then odin the cwm5 kernel either thru odin or mobile odin. Wipe/data and app and proceed to install. Also no need to flash Calkulin's format all, the install script wipe's system before installing. You could also try just flashing a gingerbread rom, that might restore the proper build.prop also and you would be able to proceed from that point on. Good luck and just remember all wiping and flashing must be done on a el26 or el29 based recovery.

Yeah I used sfhub's one-click EL29 and then flashed the recovery with Odin in the PDA slot. It still doesn't work.
I know it isn't something I've done because I just flashed alpha 4 not too long ago and then oc'ed back to EL29.

I've done the one-click and then flashed the CWM5 and then tried flashing alpha5 through it and it failed. Just fyi this was before I made this thread.
I can flash EL29 roms easily but I'm not too sure about the build.prop condition on my phone other then it's not allowing me to flash ICS.
Should I be using the "directboot" CWM5 that the OP said to use or another one like EL26 Rogue repack?
I just found out what is the issue. The OP didn't specify that it won't flash unless using the EL26 Kernel with CWM5. I was using EL29 kernel with CMW5. It flashed successfully. I really appreciate your valiant effort! Seriously you saved me. I thought I had a "dead" build.prop or something. lol ^_^
Glad you got it working!
I appreciate it! I got to remember this next time.

Can´t install CM9 on rooted SGH-i747

Hey guys,
I still installed the "S3 Ultimate" ROM on my rooted AT&T Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747) which works pretty good.
Now I tried to install the last nightly build (07/14/2012) from CM9 to see whether this is more what I like to have.
Unfortunately the installation process didn´t completed at all even being rooted and having USB Debugging on.
Any ideas why I couldn´t install the CM9? I tried that with each of the CM9 nightly of the last days ... none installed.

It's probably because you wiped system data.
Either restore system img from nandroid backup or flash stock using flashtool.
Read as much info as you can before flashing. Good place to begin would be http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526866

Had the same issue after formatting /system in CWM (using Arakmar's kernel 16)
So I just flashed XTXeperience rom (as I was at work and had limited resources!) rebooted into CWM, wipe cache/dalvik and flashed CM10 and GAPPS just fine :good:
Hi there.
I am experiencing the same problem. I had Miui rom and now I'm trying to install CM 10. I keep encountering this status 7 error. Initially I was trying with recovery-nozomy, later with recoverX. Same problem. Now I flashed boot.img from fastboot. I restored system from my backup. Still getting the same error. I even tried editing the updater-script, but then I just got another error message, I believe it was a status 6 error.
Does anyone have any good ideas about how to solve this issue? It would be nice to try CM 10.
Thanks in advance.

maybe you have a bad download. try to redownload, if still persist. flash stock roms then flash the CM.

Ok guys so this is the one that doesn't work for me. I think that the problem is the order of the guide cause he asks to flash the ROM before flashing the kernel. So if a newbie like me follows that guide it may brick their phone.
It won't let me post URLs so is one taking from androidlegend in case you guys see it.
And here is the other one the one the worked for me. And by the way is not that the other guide is completely useless is that the critical part doesn't work (because of the order) but here is the one!!
Ladies and gentleman THE GUIDE THAT REALLY WORKS!! The one that works is at the beginning of this post it's a Youtube video.
Thanks to all the people who made it possible. But just a little question, my phone's battery doesn't last as before, could it be something I missed?

3 days ago, i guess.. if you are coming from cm10 then just wipe cache and dalvik and flash the ROM but i recommend you should also wipe data for a fresh install and for a fabulous xperience.

Hey guys thank yuo all for the replies and the help, I tried it again but instead of wiping everything I just wipe the cache and install and it worked fine. If someone else tries it, don't wipe the dalvik and all of that just wipe your cache and install ZIP from sd card and it'll work fine. Now, how do I close it?

I tried to install cyanogenmod via the installer but then I ran into the "root may be lost, fix?" message at the end, and no matter what I chose the phone always reverted back to stock. I deleted all instances of KNOX wtihout backup using bloat free (read somewhere that this might be the problem) , but to no avail the issue is still persistent. I then tried to manually install it by downloading the zip version adding it to the sd card and wiping user data/cache/dalvik cache but then when I tried to install from the zip (I also tried it with the d2att paranoid android zip) the android on the screen would drop with the red logo after a few lines of code and say "operation aborted."
What is the issue here and how do I install either cm or pa on my phone?
What is the error message displayed on your screen when the install fails?
Are you using the latest CWM? You should flash ROMs for the d2lte.
Yes, it's the latest package I got from their site cm-11-20140217-NIGHTLY. Also fwiw, everytime I go into recovery mode now the cm blue man appears with the samsung logo (I'm guessing from their one click installer which said it was successful even though following the reboot message it reverted back to stock). The full message I'm getting is:
...

So you mean I should use the d2lte package instead of d2att? Because on their site I saw that my model corresponded with the d2att package.
You should be flashing d2lte ROMs, not d2att or d2can.
You are getting an assert error because your bootloader may not be supported. What is the bootloader or baseband on your phone?
Are you running the latest CWM?

My cmw recovery is v6.0.4.7
So I should try it with this package then? download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d2lte
Yes.
ROMs for the d2can and d2att were unified under d2lte. ROMs labelled as being for a d2att or d2can could be considered "old" in the s3 Android world.
Wow thanks a bunch, that was the issue. Posted this on the cyanogenmod forums 2 days ago and nobody answered with any input.
You're very welcome. We're all here to share our experience and knowledge so everyone can learn and help others:victory:
Also was thinking of changing the cm11 kernel to something that allows the device to be overclocked to 1800mhz or so, since this one goes to 1500 only. Are there any current inherently superior kernels out there working with the cm11 version that are worth switching to? (since from a quick search I see most of these have only been tested with cm10). Or is it better to not mess with it and leave it as is, since the only 2 uses I want is to underclock for battery life, which you already have, and overclocking since before I had some apps running slow (but again don't know if the boost to 1800 is a huge step up, and whether at the same time there are any risks of crashing or something running it at this speed).
I'm can't recommend a particular kernel since I tend to leave things as is. The only thing I change under performance tweaks is settings the phone to ondemand and noop.
Since you are running CM11, you must ensure the kernerl is for CM11 and not AOSP.
