Narrative:

Runway insight on final approximately 1;400 feet AGL flying pilot called for flaps 30 landing checklist. I selected flaps 30 and noticed an ecas message 'trailing edge flaps'; the flaps remained at 25 with the flap handle selected to 30. I asked if he noticed any 'roll' in one direction or the other. He said 'no' I then selected flap handle back to 25 and informed him of the trailing edge flaps ecas message. At this point we were at 1;000 AGL and stable on final; I elected to land rather than go around in order to run the QRH checklist since the flaps were at 25 with no noticeable roll. Once on the ground we attempted to retract the flaps but they remained at 25; I'm not really sure if the flaps would have retracted if we had attempted a go around.
