[Q] CWM Recovery gives an error while installing GAPPS! Help! - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! I've recently installed on a SGS3 CyanogenMod 11 with 4.4.4 Kitkat. Now I'm trying to install the GAPPS pack but when I select the zip file from the CWM Recovery menu it abort the installation saying "file_getprop: failed to stat "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory"
You can find the image with the error at the end of the post. Thanks!

Do you have the newest recovery??
Or try to download another GAPPS. This can be broken

The file might be corrupted, try another ggapp if you have the latest version of CWM.

Can't 'install zip from sd card' Help!

Hi all,
First of all sorry for my english
I have a big problem with the CWM Manager
When i reboot into recovery i don't have the option "install zip from sd card".
I have only the options:
reboot system now
appy sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
and bellow it shows:
--Install from package
Finding update package..
Opening update package..
Verifying update package..
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
Installation aborted
That's because you have no custom recovery. Please flash an appropriate rooted kernel!
'Signature verification' error due to non flashing of zImage (extract the .tar of your root kernel) of your rooted kernel, so flash it via CWM first, then try to install zip's or anything you want.
Regards.

help me - error cyanogenmod CWM recovery

Hello guys,
via CWM Recovery 6.0.4.4 I just can not install the CyanogenMod nightly 11.
When I go to install comes out the error:
"set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
error in / data/media/0/cm-11 .... (status 7) "
With the stable 10.2 everything is in good order. So I thought I'd update via the operating system, but once downloaded the update the phone will reboot into recovery and it turns out the same error, with the inscription "aborted" and the android doll on the ground.
how I can fix this?

[Q] [Xperia U] Device bricked

Hi, I was trying to Install XperiaSTE Build 9 Android 4.4.3 CM11 Nightlies in my device. Before I start, I took a CWM Backup from ICS 4.0.4. After the rom zip downloaded, I extracted the boot.img from the zip, Then copied the rom zip to a folder inside my sdcard/internal. After I fastbooted the boot.img and unpluged the device, I just ran the CWM in device. It was not working cause my zip is probably broken. error is:
E:Can't open /storage/sdcard0/Downloads/cm-11-20140608-UNOFFICIAL.zip (bad)
Installation aborted.
I tried to restore my backup, But on restoring system it just says:
Error while restoring /system!
I've tried fastbooting ICS Default kernel for XU, but it just get's stuck in Sony boot loader logo.
I've also tried CWM adb sideload, It just errors: Device not found. Is there any way I can push a re-downloaded zip to my device? I have 80mb free space, If there's also any way I can delete the old broken ROM It would be awesome
Please help
Thanks!

I'd go for a ftf file with a stock ICS again and flash it through flashtool (flash mode).
You know, just to get the device running properly and then push your custom rom again.
Just flash the kernel that you have at the beginning or a kernel with cwm

CWM Status 6 while installing Gapps

While installing the Gapps Modular Mini 5.1.1 with Clockworkmod 6.0.4.7 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE I get the error "status 6". I've tried looking up information about this error but could find very little, I only read something about an updater script but didn't understand it.
You have to update your recovery. It is better to use latest TWRP. You can download it from here https://dl.twrp.me/i9300/
If you are unsure how to flash a .img you can find the zip in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64148147&postcount=1259
