Your issue is you lost your custom recovery. That is from stock recovery which will only flash Samsung signed roms.

Lost stock recovery

Galaxy S3 I9300 failed to verify package

trying to update/flash a Galaxy S3 I9300 but i have got an error.
im using odin, the flash works 100% but when the phone boots into system recovery
im getting this error
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation Aborted
when i turn phone on it just keeps rebooting..
ive tried flashing 3 different roms, all hard reseting each time and its still the same.
Has anyone got a solution to this sick phone?
What exactly are you trying to flash .
Most usual problem is not following instructions .
Odin should not boot to system recovery.

Problem Flashing taKtiK rom

First of all, I hope that this thread is in the right section. Here's the issue. I'm new to ROM flashing even though i have been an android user for about 2 years now. Used ClockworkMod for my custom backup. Downloaded Randomblame's taKTiK custom ROM but upon installation i get an error message: E: Error in/external_sd/tt-4.4-20140224-Release12-m470.zip.
The ROM flash begins as follows:
Finding update package
Opening update package
Installing update
set_metadata_recursive:some changes failed
E: Error in/external_sd/tt-4.4-20140224-Release 12-m470.zip
(Status 7)
What am i doing wrong?
Any help will be greatly appreciated

i think its not compatible with your phone
It's a tablet. The ROM is supposedly built for it. I get a Status 7 error which means that the installed version of CWM is not up to date. Can't find any info on how to update it though.

[Q] Unable to flash

Hi,
Unfortunately I am unable to flash another rom and I can't find a fix anywhere.
So my HTC One M7 is currently running on a snapshot of CM11 and at first I wanted to flash Paranoid Android.
When I tried to flash it it said it couldn't, it just aborted. I thought I messed something up so I restored my backup.
Yesterday I wanted to update my CM rom using the built in updater but it gave me the same error later.
The only thing I could find is to update my recovery, though I am running the latest version of CWM recovery on my phone.
Any tips?
Thanks in advance
Additional information:
Just did another one. This is the outcome:
Clockworkmod Recovery v6.0.4.3

Usually status 0 is a problem with the update binary.. So I would make sure you are downlaoding the correct roms for your device
