[Q] Can't flash ROM Official CM 10.2

Hi,
I can't flash this ROM onto my N5100: [ROM][N5100]Official CM 10.2[JLS36I][11/18/13]
I have twrp 2.6.0 installed and everytime I try to install the zip it says error executing updater binary in zip and it fails.
Also tried this with other recovery, but always getting the same error.
I must be doing something fundamentally wrong, can anyone help me out?
Thanks for any hints.
Try the version of TWRP that I made here or one of civatos CWM recovery.
Cool, thanks, worked like a charm. :good:

Stock::Custom Recovery

I have rooted. I have downloaded a recovery. I have tried some apps to flash and without success. I have booted into recovery to manually flash and I have gotten a signature verification error the two times I chose from the external SD card. Anyone possibly have an idea on a way to proceed. Oh, I am without access to a computer. If there is a way to go ahead without one, please share. If I need a computer to continue, please share. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

have you flash your recovery and what recovery did you use?
It always seems to get a partition wrong when using flashify or a twrp app. Dp you suggest using odin?

Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus Help Needed With Flashing Roms

Hello! I am new to the site so please be serious! Ok, so here's the problem: I rooted my Galaxy Nexus from Verizon to install CyanogenMod 11, Once I got the rom onto my phone I entered recovery using TWRP Recovery, then I tried to install the rom. After that it failed and I can't remember why, but I was being stupid and clicked the format sd card button and bricked my device. Now I'm trying to flash the rom again through ADB and Windows sends the .zip file to the phone, then while trying to install it gives the error of "E: Error executing updater binary in zip" and I cannot figure out a way to fix it. I need help as soon as possible and it would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
Nobody? Nobody has had this issue or a solution?

Try using a TWRP recovery, and flash with it.
If still the same, try going back to stock, and then start over.
no success
i was on twrp itself and then switched to cwm and i don't even have my stock backed up so i guess there's nothing that can be done here. but if there is a way then do help.
and i also needed the zip file to get back to twrp.
please help.

You don't need stock backup to get to stock!
You can boot into download mode, and flash the stock ROM with Odin using PC, that's it.
What is your phone Model number?
So i can give you TWRP link.
yeah. please gimme the link to a twrp zip file and yes i downloaded a stock rom for my samsung note 2 gt n7100 and i even got odin but when i'm trying to put the md5 file in the AP section it stops for some time and then an error message pops up.
the screenshot is attached of the error message that popped up

The error is because the stock ROM md5 file is corrupt.
If you want TWRP to flash with odin, then here you are.

If you want Stock ROM, then here you go:
