Wipe Super Partition [Optional]

Some custom ROMs require you to wipe the super partition via the super_empty.img file. But how to verify if your ROM requires it or not? Well, there’s no hard and fast rule. You can either flash this file and wipe the super partition before flashing any ROM, or do not flash this file and straightaway flash the ROM.

In that case, if there’s any issue, you’ll get the Error Applying update: 7 (ErrorCode: kInstallDeviceOpenError) , in which case, you’ll have to boot back to Fastboot Mode and then wipe the super partition via super_empty.img. With that said, here’s how to flash this file onto your device:

  1. Transfer the super_empty.img to the platform-tools folder.
  2. Then boot your device to Fastboot Mode.
