Alright ive been trying now for a few days to flash a new cm7 nightly. Ive tried a few things, diffrent versions of cwm an tried via rom manager (install rom from sd card), tried fake flash a recovery and flashing .img recovery but i always get the same error.
Something like "finding package, opening package, cant open /sdcard/"romname", installation aborted"
Does anyone know of an easy way to fix this?
I want a new rom or atleast a newer nightly

In CWM it'll be "toggle signature verification" I had this problem once and that was the solution!

I had the same issue a while ago, re-downloading the ROM zip worked for me
Sent from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
Yeah re-downloading the ROM was best fix for me, I remember it did it twice or three times before one actually worked.. alternatively you could always flash a different recovery (properly not fake flash) and see how that goes.
To make sure the download is complete, check the md5sum of the downloaded file in case you have one to compare. Otherwise, you could ask in the corresponding thread for it.
i flashed the newest cwm i found and still got the same problem, i've downloaded about 10 times but i always get the same error.
But i how do i find out the md5sum?
hmm.. try the recovery from my signature, flash it via fastboot.
Nothing worked so far.
Will try RA-Desire CM recovery when i get home ...
when i try to install the non stock roms i get an abort message on cwm for some reason? any help?
What is your fail message? Could be your recovery version or could be your bootloader. We need more details of the problem and what you've done to troubleshoot it.

well im on twrp 2.5 and when i try to flash it says assert failed: getprop('ro.prudect.device") == "e: Error executing updater binary in zip ' /sdcard Error flashing zip '/sdcard/download/aokp_d2att_ upadtion partition details. .. i guess it would have to be my bootloader then. ive done what task said and updated it through odin but still get this message
Just to provide all the information I have on hand, I have the
T-Mobile SGH-M919
android version 4.3
baseband version M919UVUEMK2
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.4.7
My issue is that regardless of what rom I attempt to download i get the error below. Specifically, I've tried to download virginROM 2.3, which seems to be compatible with my device. From what I understand status 7 is in place to keep you from flashing an incompatible rom and so I'm not too sure how to proceed from here. Any and all help would be appreciated.

I just ran into this a few minutes ago using Philz Touch. The solution I found was under the install zip menu, you should see "Don't Allow Old update-binary. It should have a check-mark; simply untick that option and try again.

I'm using CWM and I don't see the option to check "donm't allow old update-binary." When I turn toggle signature verification off I get
E:footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
and then get prompted to ask if i want to install an untrusted package. I attempted to download and apply the new 4.4.2 Google Edition by Davnh, haven't tried TWCP yet but i feel like it should still be doable via CWM.

Ofcourse it will fail. Change your recovery to either cwm 5.0.2.8 or philz or clockworkmod 6

Thanks a lot!
It works.
Believe me, I read multiple threads before. Had a lot of phones already rooted and installed custom roms before. This marvel just was bloody incredible. Never had so much trouble with unlocking the bootloader via htcdev, HBoot-Problems, Downgrade, Goldcard.
But now all in all it works and this rom seems to be really nice.

Thanks for telling the main cause I can't install CM11. But I am not sure how can I remove the old one and install the newer version (CWMv.6)?

Then most probably your download got corrupted. Download it again. And try to open the zip to see if its okay.

Try connecting to a computer and open the zip file and say what did you find. My download got corrupted 4 times when downloading through chrome. Try downloading via a download manager. But if it does not work even then, try using TWRP 2.7.1.0. You should find it high in the development section.

1.Try to open it in a PC with Winrar or Winzip to check that the archive is not corrupted....
2. Or u can try the other 4.4.x ROMs in development section...
3. Download the ROM with a download manager software like "Free Download Manager" with PC and open it, when u sure the archive is OK, send it to your SDcard and install
This is all I Know about your problem...

So the error shows that your ROM you've downloaded is corrupted since the download process. As I told u must download it in your PC with a Download Manager software, not with your browser. Then open it to see the archive has no problem. Send to your SD card and install it...
