Status 7 ZTE Blade III when trying to flash custom rom

[Guest Awkardphoton]

I've installed cwm on my Blade 3 and created a backup of my stock rom, i'm trying to flash KonstaT's cm11 rom on it however I keep on getting a status 7 error... I've tried looking at other status 7 threads however they seem to be different from mine.. what happens exactly is below:

 

Installing: /sdcard/cm-11-20140702-UNOFFICIAL-konstaKANG-atlas40.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

Installing update...

set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed

E:Error in /sdcard/cm-11-20140702-UNOFFICIAL-konstaKANG-atlas40.zip

(status 7)

Installation aborted.

 

 

Can anyone help me out? I've tried all the roms I can find for the balde 3, but they all do the same! any help is appriciated!

[Guest KonstaT]

Maybe reading the CM11 thread's first post would help.

You will need updated recovery image (CWM, TWRP) to install this build!!!

 

And no, you haven't 'tried all the roms', just CM11...

Thanks for all your great work :)

1) Please don't shout

2) You're English is fine. Grammar could do with some work. Doesn't everybody's?

3) Please post to the right thread. The CWM recovery thread, where KonstaT says:

 

This is my build of Koush's ClockWorkMod Recovery 6.0.4.9. This recovery is common to all ZTE devices with board name atlas40 (e.g. ZTE Blade III, ZTE Acqua, V889D, V880E etc).

And so that's what you do. Flash it from ClockworkMod.
