What is your carrier? What ROMs are you getting? Are you flashing in a custom recovery? Are you doing a full wipe of the device before flashing?

As for your network information, you mean your wifi password? It will always do that, if you are wiping your device.

Is your bootloader unlocked?
Do you really know what you're doing?

johnnie, you're going to have to give us something to work with. In addition to what Golfdriver asked, what process are you trying to follow to install a ROM (post a link)? If using a custom recovery, which one? What process did you use to root your phone? What error message (exactly) are you getting.

Try a fresh download. The file may have been messed up a little.

I had the same issue (Status 7). Then I deleted few codes from the CM zip file. Read under "Common Errors" here: Rooting an Android ? Sanuja Senanayake
