It is probably a bad download. try re-downloading the zip

Alright, noticed there is a build 04/03/14. will test that now
Edit: Nope, still won't flash.... I've redownloaded it as you suggest but to no avail I guess

Installing kernel problem

I'm having problems installing any of the franco kernel through twrp 2.6 the latest twrp anyways when I install the zip file it fails. I'm running 9/4 pac also though i don't think that would have anything to do with it failing i tried the 182 and 178 i believe also the jj ones to any help thanks. Oh also i saw the iso files i believe but thought they had to be zipped to install through recovery so maybe that way would work however you install them with the iso thanks again

sorry not iso. I didn't download the img file and meant img file. I only downloaded the zip file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002782 I first thought it was my recovery was out of date so updated twrp which got me nothing and took forever because goomanager didn't do it so had to use nexus root tool kitv1.7.2 finally got that updated and still the zip file fails also tried the lte zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358931 to have lte when and if it ever rolls out in my area but that ones not important plus i think pac's rom has it automatically in it because when i dialed *#*#4636#*#* lte is an option.
Anyways the problems with the zip file when i install it or try to that is it fails with 182 the jj file to and the 178 and jj file don't know what i'm doing wrong and it my mistake again img not iso.

you cant flash img files via recovery.. you either flash it via fastboot or through apps that flash it via fasrboot/terminal for you.

I have the same issue with my nexus 4. Installed jelly bam, then had to update tarp to 2.6, yet it still won't flash any version of Franco kernel. Yes they are zip files and from the Dev directly. It gives me zip verification failed so I toggled verify zip signature and it said success. I wipe cache again and reboot. Now I am stuck with with the white Google logo. So I just reinstall jelly bam to get back to a working kernel. I have yet to flash cm to see if a different recovery works, or if it's a problem with the kernel or even jelly bam
SOLVED
I changed the recovery from twrp to cwm and then flashed it. cwm said it worked, but when i wiped cache and rebooted, im still stuck on the white google logo. Looking at your kernel, im assuming you too have jelly bam installed.
It seems you have to manually install it. Download the img file you want off here (use jss versions if you are on jellybam 10.2+)
go to fastboot mode
fastboot flash boot kernel_name.img
this seems to have worked for me. why it has to be this way; i have no idea.
why do you wipe cache? try without wiping!

Its just a habit. Can that actually be the issue? Also I did not check, but maybe the reason it said "success" was because file signature verification was off. Twrp said it worked when I turned it off, so that could be why cwm said successful too

while i was testing stuff i found....
from 4.2.2 using different way (some tool) to get recovery (not autorec) i could update to official twrp 2.8.x.x.
using 4.4.2 using autorec cant update to official twrp 2.8.x.x.
but can update to the custom 2.8.x.x availabe here with f2fs version.

[Q] Which Recovery should I use with CM Nightlies?

Hi all, I have 3 S5 models with the same problem (M, F and FD) and I have been running cm nightlies in these devices, but I am unable to update the rom by clicking update now after the download, the device will just boot to the recovery and I have to manually pick the right file, sometimes it just work (at random) but most of the time I have to pick the file, my guess is that I have the wrong recovery, I tried Philz and I am now running TWRP, which do you recommend?
TWRP should be able to automatically install ROM updates. Also Questions don't go in the General section

That's not a TWRP issue

Trying to re-ROM my Note 3

I've been trying to re-ROM my phone from CM11 to CM12.1, but I keep getting:
error executing updater binary in zip

From what I've seen recommended is to wipe the phone, which I have with TWRP and I keep getting their error when I try to install the new ROM.
That error leads me to believe the rom is not made for the phone or the zip file is corrupted.

I"ve been trying this with a few different updated ROMs. As for the ROM not being for the phone, it is unlikely since it is unified. I'd post the link, but the forum won't let me yet.
The recovery is TWRP 2.8.7.1 or newer?
Examine the updater script in the ROM to make sure your phone meet's the requirements.

Upgraded to 3.0.0.0 and still having the same issue. Wiped cache/dalvik, did a Factory Reset in TWRP as well, tried to flash again, and I'm still getting the same error message:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7

Since the updater script error is still appearing, it sounds like the phone is not compatible with the ROM.
What is the exact model of the phone?

I was using the hlte one (Unified version) since that worked with CM11. I am now booting up my Note 3 with CM12-1. Thank you! :highfive:
Glad it worked.

If you can get an exact copy of the error message and post it here it'll help us figure out whats going on (hopefully). Also, What version of twrp are you using?

Having root has nothing to do with the ability to flash ROMs, you might be a bit confused about that. You need to provide more information too please:
1. What ROMs have you tried?
2. Exactly what gapps have you tried?
3. Are you making sure you flash the correct corresponding vendor image to go with the ROM build?
4. Exactly what error(s) are you getting?
Messgaes on failure
when i reboot i get your system cant be checked for corruption,please lock boot loader.
after twrp starts i try and flash dirty unicorn,i think i am missing a step
error says
update process ended with error 7
error installing zip file /sdcard/DU_TBO_GAPPS_3.1 ZIP
Okay dirty unicorn boots with the message flash updated vendor image.
