I've installed the latest Cyanogenmod, the latest CWM 3.0.2.4, fixed permissions in the rom manager, and I still cant get the gapps to install. I attempted to install the suggested gapps for cyanogen 7, and no luck.
When I attempt to install it reads:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
When I select to enable signature verification, it then reads it failed signature verification.
The process I use to attempt to install the gapps is, I open the Rom Manager, select reboot into recovery and then install zip file from sd.
I've tried several different versions of the gapps, and still no luck.
I have researched this for the past few hours and I can not get this to work at all. I do have it rooted, everything else installed fine, with no complications. But I am very much stuck at this point. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I figured it out on my own. When you use CWM3, just go to download rom instead of manually doing it.

Hello experienced gurus out there, I am in need of some help tonight.
Here is my scenario:
I started out tonight with a stock rooted INC. I saw the thread for the new Skyraider and thought I would try and install it. I went ahead and pushed the PB31IMG to unroot and go back to bare bones stock. I rebooted and then installed Verizon's OTA as instructed in the thread on how to upgrade the radio. I then removed the PB31IMG from my SD card and installed the Dinc_OTA file to upgrade the radio. That went through fine and I double-checked to make sure the baseband version was correct which it was. Next, I rooted using UNrevoked 3 and then make a Nand backup immediately after. I rebooted the phone and then set up my Google account and downloaded Rom Manager from the Market. I flashed the ClockworkMod from ROM manager and then proceeded to Install ROM from SD card option. It goes into recovery and I see a screen with a red exclamation point and the little Android guy and then I hit vol up + Power to go to the recovery menu. I selected install zip from SD and then selected the Skyraider zip and confirmed installation.
It started going through files and in the end gives me a message that says "Installation aborted"
Here is what it actually says on the screen in its entirety (in case this helps):
ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to seek /cache/update.zip (Invalid argument)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
--Installing: SDCARD:SkyRaider2.2Vanilla.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Thats it...
The first time I tried this, instead of hitting install from SD, I rebooted it to check the system version and then went to ROM manager again. Aas soon as it started it came up with this message that gave three options it seemed. One said "broken" recovery" and I forget what the other said, but it gave a link to email the developer Koush.. something. I clicked where it said broken recovery and then tried installing ROM from SD again in ROM manager. It brought me to the Recovery screen and thats when I went into the Recovery Menu and tried pushing the file from there and then got the installation aborted message that I typed out up there^^^
What should I do? Try to re-install ClockworkMod? Revert back to the old radio and then start from scratch? Anybody in the know please help me.
I reflashed Unrevoked and now SkyRaider IS installing. Just a glitch I guess, although I DID have Superuser before.
I have used Rom Manager numerous times to download and flash new roms. Today I decided I would try the Uncommon Sense rom. I downloaded it through rom manager and when it went to flash the rom this is what I get:
Installing: SDCARD:/clockworkmod/download/www.pcjock.com/uncommon_sense_v11.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
E: Can't open /sdcard/uncommon/uncommon_sense_v11.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
/tmp/recovery.log was copied to /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery.log Please open
ROM Manager to repor the issue.
I tried different roms and get the same error. Any ideas?
well i did it the old fashioned way without rom manager and it worked flawlessly

A lot of people have had issues with Rom Manager. I just put the rom zip on the sd card and flash it that way. People have said Rom Manager does not do the wipes correctly.
It looks like ROM Manager finds the ROM in one place then tries to install it from another.
The simple answer is to just install it from recovery from the SDCARD:/clockworkmod/download/www.pcjock.com/ location.
Had the same issue....I reinstalled clockwork recovery and it worked!
Is there logging somewhere to help determine what's causing the issue?
Trying to help a dev add a ROM to ROMManager, but it fails to install every time.
--If I boot to recov. mode, format system/data/cache, remount system, and then install the ROM from zip file on sdcard, it works great (from recov., not from RM).
--If I try to install from ROMManager either from .zip on SD, -OR- via download, both fail.
Keeping in mind that this is on a DroidX, which presents it's own set of challenges...
Looking for a way to better debug this, to help devs of both the ROM and ROMManager... anyone have any advice on where to start?
Edit: I was unable to locate a recovery.log. No *.log in /sdcard/clockworkmod/ at all.
SOLVED read below
I was just installing cm11.0_codina.nova.20140623 (mclaw) from stock 4.1 without any alternation, following instructions:
Reboot to recovery mode
Select "Wipe data / Factory Reset"
Select "Install the zip from External Storage"
Choose the CM zip file: -> cm11.0_codina.nova.20140623 (mclaw)
Choose the GApps zip file: -> pa_gapps-modular-micro-4.4.4-20140620-signed
and get the message after mounting system...
file_getprop: failed to start "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(status 7)
What's going wrong, also tried the mini gapps , same message, both checked md5.
So just to be clear i have nothing extra installed like CWM as it is not stated in tutorial. Just with the native bootmenu as it is.
So what can i try next? It boots fine but without gapps its not complete.
EDIT:
I've rebooted and now came in different bootmenu where the installation went fine, so i guess it needed a reboot what was missing in instructions.

Hi,
after giving 4.4.2-StockROM a (long) try, I wanted to install [SM-T31X][5.1.1] CyanogenMod 12.1 unofficial build (by tohenk).
I followed the instruction for TWRP-Installation and the one for CM12.1 by tohenk.
Doing so, I installed TWRP via Odin 3.09 (successful).
To root the T310, I had to install the zip "ROOT_SGT3_8.0.zip". (also successful)
Reentering TWRP to flash the CM12.1-zip, I selected the file from internal SD-Card, getting a warning that the file shall not be compatible - having had the same with the root-zip, i swiped to install.
Resulting in the error (got a screenshot, but can't link it - to few posts):
"Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset.
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/fw/cm-12.1-20151018-UNOFFICIAL-lt01wifi.zip'
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/fw/cm-12.1-20151018-UNOFFICIAL-lt01wifi.zip"
... as offered by TWRP, i reset the Dalvik-Cache, rebooted. All Apps have been reinitialized, rebooted again into TWRP, getting the same Error.
So I installed philz_touch_6.08.9-lt01wifi.zip - but getting the same Error...
At the moment, I'm stucked with rooted StockROM...
..what did I miss?
(thanks for any help)
- - - - - - -
Edit:
Found the error:
prepareing the Flash-Procedure, I did a "factory reset" from within StockROM-Settings.
After performing a Factory-Reset out of PhilzTouch and wiping Dalvik-Cache (without rebooting the GT3 after Wiping), I was capable to install the CM12.1-zip, which runs perfectly fine now...
(somewhere it should be mentioned "do the factory reset from recovery, not from within ROM"
tohenk: you did a wonderful Job on the CM12.1-ROM! Thank you!!
I'm having the same issue.... so I installed Philz_touch_6.19.3 but I still can't flash any of the ROM's for T310...
Do you have any suggestions?
My tablet start up to SAMSUNG TAB 3 logo and stuck there...
Ok so I got my E980 rooted via towelroot, then used the freegee app to install loki, then I used flashify to install the CM recovery listed below, planning to flash the matching cyanogenmod rom:
snapshot Download: cm-12.1-20151007-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO332-e980.zip (243.15 MB)
sha1: 9a4773d2fca0658edb2683079ce96307863a9fd0 Download: cm-12.1-20151007-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO332-e980-recovery.img
sha1: 1095ea774ff2347fb3a2884045aa4a47e6833893 2015-10-07 02:08:36
I rebooted into the recovery and it wouldn't flash the cyanogenmod 12.1 rom at first, saying that I had an incompatible system installed, so I did a factory reset and then tried again and it installed the CM 12.1 ROM without errors, however it wont boot into it. All I can access is the CyanogenMod recovery and the factory wipe screen, I cant seem to boot into a rom even when it installs without errors, I cant get into download mode no matter what combo of keys/plugging in I do, even though it worked fine before.
Any thoughts or Ideas? I am totally lost here.
When turn on the phone it says:
Secure booting Error! Cause : Device Unlock!, so Boot Success!!
When I try to flash the TWRP zip that is floating around (2.8.1 I think) it says:
Finding update package.....
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:Footer is wrong
E:Signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
When I turn on ADB mode through CyanogenMod recovery
Adb devices: Lists the device (99d3b89c sideload)
Adb usb: Error : closed
I have tried CyanogenMod 10.2.0, 11-20141115, and 12.1-20151007, and tried them before and after every kind of wipe available through this recovery, and they all install without error then reboot back to the recovery.
Is there another flashable recovery around for this phone I could try? I just don't see many in zip format.
Finally got it working. Threw every flashable recovery I could find at it, finally got Phillz touch to install and work from the CyanogenMod recovery. Phillz wouldnt install a working rom, but Phillz did allow me to flash CWM 6 something, which allowed me to install 2.8.1 TWRP, which couldnt see my microSD card, but it did allow me to copy 12.1 CM to my internal SD card from my computer via USB and to flash it and have it actually work. After I booted into CM 12.1 I had to fight gapps for a while, the open gapps pico and nano for 5.1 arm didnt work, but I got the Gapps from the slim rom to work after rewiping the system to remove the open gapps.
After that I finally manager to get flashify, supersu, and busybox from the store. Used flashify to upgrade to 3.0 TWRP. I still cant get into download mode, but pretty much everything else is working now.
