I'm on 4.2.2 at the moment. The phone is rooted. CWM v6.0.4.4
Every now and then the phone reminds me to install the update. When I attempt, I just get:
E: Invalid command argument
Finding...
Opening...
Verifying...
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
Even if I press 'Yes - install untrusted zip', I just get a few messages that I can't read, and then "Installation aborted" and phone restarts.
I did some googling and the only thing I found was something about it being unable due to the phone being rooted. And to manually update with signature verification off, but then it didn't really explain how to go about that.
Could anyone help me out here? If possible I'd like to get it to work without having to change too much.

sorry i forgot to add what the error is
E:failed to seek in /cache/update.zip (invalid argument)
E:signature verification failed
Hm, I knew.
Copy the zImage of your rooted kernel to SD card. Then flash it via CWM with the option Flash Kernel. Done.
Regards.
hi this is my first post here and i did search all over the place i couldnt find any thing so here it goes .
i rooted my phone with CF-root 4.4 its not rooted and all so i want to install cyanogenmod i heard its a dream . the thing is when it reboots to install it i get this error :
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
i tried to flash back to stock kernel it even got the yallow triangle thinggy to go away . but its all the same . i can backup/restore and its working just find but thats about it HELP ! ^^ ty
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I keep trying to flash the .zip file but it says it's denied or something like that. I really want to get this ROM working on my Galaxy but I'm not going to flash until I get the recovery saved first. I hope I make sense.

Turn off signature verification in the install zip from sd card menu and try again. It should work once you have done that
Wait, are you trying to use CWM to flash Entropy's CWM release? 'Cause the only release I've seen from him is his Daily Driver release, a version of CWM.
If that IS what you're trying to flash, you need to use Odin or Heimdall.
Extract the zimage file from the .zip. In Heimdall, you'll want to flash that file to the kernel in heimdall, or let Odin flash it wherever it belongs.
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.
