Update error code 7

[ProgrammAbel]

Hi, I had an official v15 update available so I flashed the stock v13 ROM to try and install it, only to be met with an error code 7 when updating. Does anyone know what's going on?

[speeduploop]

Just read the log --> it will tell you what exactly went wrong...

[ivan1...@gmail.com]

get the /cache dump, open it as a .zip file and read the logs into the "recovery" folder.

[speeduploop]

Or just read it in recovery-menu directly... ;)

[ProgrammAbel]

 Yup, I just saw the post by Ivan, I'm looking at it now :)

[speeduploop]

BTW: with root you can read the logs directly on the device (adb shell)...

They are on /cache/recovery - so you can just use 'more' to read them:

more /cache/recovery/last_log

for example gives you the last log...

ENTER --> next line

SPACE --> next page

R --> show rext

Q --> quit

[ProgrammAbel]

Hey I looked at the logs, and apparently my /system has "unexpected contents" (BTW, this is after I flashed pure /system):

E3100: system partition has unexpected contents

I don't know where else to get a stock v13 TA-1059 system.img, do you know? Better yet, could I use this method with speeduploop's v16 dumps to get v16?

[speeduploop]

No - but you can use my v13 stock image...

(there are images for v12, v13 and v16 in my cloud-drive...)

Remember: you can't flash system image manually from the running system - only through recovery!

[ProgrammAbel]

Thanks. Ivan said he got v16 - was that via this method? Because I don't see why using your v16 dumps with that repair method Ivan posted wouldn't give you a v16...

[speeduploop]

Yes - we made it with exactly this method - but with dumps of v12 --> so he got his v12 repaired to a clean state and he could do a normal fota-update.

-- so if you are on a modded 12 --> use v12 dumps

-- if you're on modded v13 --> use v13 dumps

And after that you do a fota-update to v16.

BUT: if you use this script you linked --> use dumps matching your device!

Because if not - you will switch your 'device-variant'... (Ivan's phone is now switched to 'western-europe / german' which isn't a problem -- but using my dumps on a eastern-europe or asian device could be a problem.)

[PuriShnit]

Whichever method you use, you probably can't just restore the system partition, you need to restore a few more. Because the fota update seemingly recognizes your model/variant from the info of a different partition (boot etc),

That's probably why your update failed, because it was downloaded based on one variant, and your system image was restored from a different one...

[speeduploop]

That's the reason why the mentioned script reflashes a bunch of partitions --> all which are needed ;)

But that's also the reason why you have to be carefull to use images matching your 'device-variant'... because you can switch for example an asian 8110 to a german by using that script with the wrong imges... after that it will update - but to a german v16 :D

That doesn't need to be a problem - but it can be.

-- update schedules are region specific

-- app-store is region specific

-- and probably even some low-level things like support for providers or lte-bands are region-specific

For Ivan's 8110 that wasn't a big problem because german/italy doesn't have to much differences - ans he probably gets now some apps/updates even earlier... but he wouldn't get italy-only apps (if they ever provide something like that).

Can you share your v13stock dumps

You can check bananahackers website there you can find TA-1059

Hossain, him needs v13-TA-1048....and I haven't them, there are only for v12 and v11

[ivan1...@gmail.com]

Sorry, TA-1059

[speeduploop]

If you only need system.img that's not a problem ---> system.img is the same for all dual-sim devices.

(but the other partitions should match...)

[Hossain Mohammed Shoaib]

Or i've my system.img TA-1059 v13 clean
Just need some to post it there

[ProgrammAbel]

No, this update was a normal fota-update from my device... So, if I just dump my partitions with dumpall.zip now, and use speeduploop's v13 dumps with the repair thing, might it work?

[ProgrammAbel]

I thought I had clean v13 dumps, but my phone says otherwise...

Ok first run dumpall.zip then
Flash system.img from clouds
If any problem then reflash your own duwp

Yup, that's what I was thinking, just confirming with you guys ;D

[ProgrammAbel]

Hey guys, I've successfully updated to v16 using speeduploop's dumps :D

[speeduploop]

All of them or only system.img? (using all of them could have side-effects...)

[ProgrammAbel]

Maybe I should expand upon that, so as not to lead anyone the wrong way...

I flashed the v13 dumps from speeduploop's cloud onto my TA-1059 model using this method and then did a normal FOTA update to v16. So speeduploop, your hunch was wrong, your dumps do also work on the TA-1059 model, and presumably other models too.

[ProgrammAbel]

See my post above...

[speeduploop]

I never said it wouldn't work...

I saidit has side-effects - like switching the 'device-variant' of the device...

Could you please try *#0000# and post the device-variant it shows?

--> just to check and be sure...

[ProgrammAbel]

It says:

Nokia 8110 4G

16.00.17.00

19-04-26

TA-1059

(c)Nokia

Variant:23ARG14ROW2/DS

It's the exact same as my old one (apart from the date and firmware version of course.) That makes me wonder, where does the device get the model and variant details from? It's definitely not from all the partitions in your dumps, so could it be in another partition? Or maybe it checks the actual hardware? It's mind-boggling...

[speeduploop]

That's really strange...

--> either you luckily did something wrong and so preserved your device-variant or

--> Ivan accidently switched his device-variant even before we started to repair his device.

In my cloud-drive is only the 'minimal-set' of images to reset a device -- so it doesn't change IMEI for example.

(and probably device-variant is in one of the images I didn't provide - which would be a quite cool thing...)

-- but until now we were sure it would change it.

BTW: the 'original' device-variant should be on a sticker under battery.

[ProgrammAbel]

The weirdest thing just happened...

I switched out the application.zip in the system.gaiamobile.org for the GerdaOS one to send a screenshot of the *#0000# output just to prove it. Then, when I dialled the code, there was a gap where the variant was supposed to be, like this!

But what makes this even weirder is that I flashed the stock v16 /system from your cloud and the variant is back, and it says TA-1059 again!

[speeduploop]

Yes - but that doesn't tell us anything...  system.gaiamobile.org is the same on all devices.

But the location were it reads the variant from has different content on different devices.

(btw: you can do screencaps with webide - even on stock firmware if you use the right version of firefox)

[ProgrammAbel]

Oh okay then. Erm, could you explain how to perform screenshots with WebIDE?

[speeduploop]

On the right panel is a button 'Screenshot' -- but the only firefox-version I could get it to work is v49.0.2 -- which seems to be the highest completetly compatible version for KaiOS.

[ProgrammAbel]

Yeah, doesn't work on the Palemoon browser. Oh well.

[speeduploop]

probably one of these works better?

[Tangy Tomm]

Thanks buddy, this thing worked for me too👍🏼

[ProgrammAbel]

you're welcome :D
