[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] ehsanotaku:
[MENTION=5043976]reednoel4u[/MENTION], Error status 7 could be caused by following actions mostly : Wrong instructions/Incompatible CWM with CM11 nightly MTD build/Incomplete Rom Zip file ( you can avoid this by checking the integrity of your Rom >> post#203 , my comment.

Prerequisites:

- Preferably ClockworkMod_v6.0.5.3-Cooperve.zip >> you can get it from post#4 , attachment of my comment .

- Older CWM temporary (5.0.2.6/8) ( Optional) >> Recommended approach: Rather than flashing straight from e3 stock recovery >> we are going to flash the old version , which is compatible with your stock firmware RFS partition systems; then we flash it over your stock e3 recovery >>enter our CWM5+ >> when you are in CWM environment, install the new CWM6+ compatible which supports lasted MTD-CM11 nightly build, flash it>> go to advanced menu >>select "reboot to recovery" to be directed into new cwm6+ > perform data/wipe + wipe cache partition >> go to mount options > format /system>>at the end flash your new Rom through the main menu and you are done .

- cm-11.0.0-RC14-GT-S5830i-cooperve.zip >> 124.7 MB

- We need wipe flash-able zip package for clean installation process over Odin to clear any possible incomplete RFS file system transformation into MTD; any /data mount error we are going to receive after format/wipe /data partition ;mismatch MD5 errors,, etc etc

Suggestion : Get your appropriate "xxx.tar.md5 (CSC/MODEM/PDA)" of your "i" variation Ace 5830i device ( code name :Cooperve; Android version : 2.3.6) from official source : Sammobile.com database (Registration is required) >> Follow my instruction in this post# 9 to create your own zip package ( necessary tool is attached to the post)

Alternative solutions : These sources have flash-able PDA/CSC/MODEM already made for your convenient >> Source1 ; Source2 ; Source3 .

- For clean installation ( emphasizing on this method) 1. Download Odin3 for Galaxy Ace Cooperve ( Correct pit file is already there for you ) from my post's attachment.

2.Put CSC/MODEM/PDA inside the corresponding sections inside Odin , Re-partition is not ticked for this time. ( If you are not familiar with flashing concept , follow this illustrated tutorial)

3. Go to your e3 stock recovery,do your wipe data/factory reset to revert back to your same old RFS partition. If everything goes according to instruction, you are reverted back to stock firmware and ready to follow above instruction for CM11.

4. Encountered any kind of errors i have explained earlier, then go back to Download mode >> CSC/MODEM/PDA in their respective places; pit file too; Re-partition selected; the boot loader found in my post's attachment inserted into it's proper place,, Flash >> go back to e3 stock recovery ( assuming you know the correct combo key for it ) do your Wipe Data and you are good to go .

How to approach the Well-known SIM-card bug inside this build and get it to work :

1. Using your device without SIM-CARD in unorthodox way explained here.

2. Even if you did manage to follow all of instructions successfully , you can't boot with your SIM-card inside your device properly : There is another "unofficial way" to counter this particular problem , which is flashing Galaxy Young Y (GT-S5360 ; Code name : Totoro) modem separately through Odin (data wipe again and you are done ). However this method was never confirmed by Developers due to unexpected EFS corruption. Loss of IMEI and other symptoms you might experience ( Read my insertion here for consequences . Do it At Your Own Risk, If you are not convinced though ).

Please enlighten us mate : Define "flash any gapps" ? According to OP in Discussion topic/General sub forums/first page >> This is a correct file for /system partition installation .
