I tried flashing the latest snapshot, nightly and stable build of CM.11 using TWRP. I did a factory reset first then tried flashing CM.11 followed by GApps, but all I get is "Failed" in red when I try flashing the rom.
Any Ideas?
Flash Philz Touch recovery and then flash cm11.

Thx. I'll give it a go and let you know! Hope this works
Update: Sadly that too failed. The last thing it tries to do before receiving the red "failed" error is this: Updating partition details...
The error is this:
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '.sdcard/Android Roms/philz_touch_6.15.4-d2att.zip
Im going to try and put these flashable files in the root of my SD card and see if that helps.
If it fails again, find and select Copy Log to SD. Often this will give more insight into the cause.
Try flashing via Odin.

Hello guys, I've recently flashed TWRP recovery and tried to flash a 4.4 Kitkat rom onto my device.
I have a problem trying to install the rom. It keeps saying that there is no MD5 found.
And also could not create file for updater extract in /tmp/updater.
I've got everything that the rom requires such as the Hboot and Ext part. What's the issue here?
I've tried installing a lot of other roms but it keeps giving me this same error, I also can't flash 4ext using the flash from zip or anything. I always recieve the same error.

You could try disabling signature checking from recovery.
Just installed TWRP 2.8.0.1 and I'm unable to flash any 4.4+ ROMs. I get the error"E: error executing updater binary", then the flash fails. Is there any way to fix this?
Was trying to flash the new Dirty Unicorns ROM.

I would try a different recovery, from what I understand there are some problems with twrp 2.8 on our device. I could be wrong but the one that was posted here was closed because it was erasing the whole phone.
Try twrp 2.7 or Philz. CWM is ok, but I think Philz will restore a backup from CWM or TWRP.
Anyone ever been trying to flash the stock OG5.TAR through ODIN and had it fail, then sayd Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again. I can not get a rom or stock tar to flash and work after having other issues.
Also tried flashing twrp again, then going into recovery and flashing Sac23's Rom, and get this error:
symlink: some symlinks failed
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sd/Note_5_Sac23_Port_V2.1.zip'
Error flashing zip '/external_sd/Note_5_Sac23_Port_V2.1.zip'
and says Failed.

A little more info such as did you check md5 after downloading the stock tar?
Whats your current version of Android?
What other if any mods have you done?
You can try the stock rom by tx_dbs_tx here:

Read the OP carefully.
If that works then go here:

and flash one of the three awsome bug free roms.
It fails to install Rom, when I go to reboot TWRP it says Kindle doesn't have root. Is there a way to check for root in TWRP. When I go to install Cyan nightly ROM i get stuck at; detected filesystem ext4 for /............ then Error; Error executing updater binary in zip
Then I downloaded a cyan release and it fails right away with Error executing updater binary in zip
I think it has something to do with not verifying root first.
If that's the case what steps should I take to get root?

CM usually has root built in - the reason you're getting the "no root" error is likely because CM isn't flashing properly. This might be the case because your TWRP version is out of date. Download the latest TWRP zip from this thread, then flash it from TWRP, reboot back into TWRP when prompted, and then try flashing CM again.

My kindle fire refused to flash CM11 saying that it wasn't compatible with my device, but once I updated TWRP, it flashed just fine.

I think you have tried the right thing, format cache, as it's not working could it be memory hardware? You could take it to some repair shop to try repair with jig.
still the same
