What does it say when you try to flash it? Have you tried using another recovery like twrp you can get it by downloading goo manager and install recovery.

Well I'm running CWM Recovery because I installed it on my phone

 

[dcap0187]

well if your recovery looks like the photo with android guy laying on his back then you have stock recovery, but if your photo looks like the one on the bottom then you have cwm recovery......period. Just because you might of tried to install it doesn't mean its installed. let me tell you, the person who took the time to answer you your questions knows what hes talking about.

 

[Shabbypenguin]

apologies i must be mistaken, sorry i couldnt help

Dude you have stock recovery if you have the little android robot laying down. And if it was cwm recovery there would be an option to backup and restore at the main menu.

It also says stock android recovery at the top of your pic.

That was an example pic by shabby, but I'm sure his looks the same. I'm starting to wonder if this guy is this daft or if he's trolling.

 

[deniskayeremuk]

I have CWM Recovery because it says that and i've installed roms and themes thru it, BUT this time it doesnt install. i can restore, back up, clear cache, everything else, BUT when i try installing it fails and shows that "dead" Android guy.

he is an AF contributor, it means he has been active enough to be considered for staff and knows enough to answer questions for people in the generic Q&A section

ah ok, see tahts teh key difference, now if you could provide the error on why it failed we could work out why.

Yes some pics of the screen when the error comes up would be very helpful. if you have another phone or camera upload a pic of the error when it comes up

Okay so this is what it looks like, i cant take a picture because im using it but this is almost what it looks like. Happens to anything I install

 

[Shabbypenguin]

i get what you are saying, however without an error log... nothing i can do

use twrp and you can get the log from there, but I willing to bet the updater script is whats causing the problem. Error 7.
