Problem with CWM backup - General Questions and Answers

I've used CWM quite a few times with great success but having trouble now.
Running Darkyrom 10.4.2 with semaphore kernel on a SGH-T959D, when I try to backup I get the following:
E:failed to mount /dbdata (invalid argument)
--Installing package...
Finding update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
This while trying to do a rom backup. I've just flashed the semaphore kernel the other day, not sure if this is contributing to my problem. I've also tried to reinstall the app but no love. I was able to boot into recovery and do a backup from there however.
Anyone help a brutha out? I'd be very appreciative...

Someone....anyone?

Not able to flash roms

Since this morning I'm not able to flash roms in ClockworkMod Recovery v.3.2.0.0 (solarnz-R4c-100611-1150)
I get this message:
-- Installing: /sdcard/aokp_wingray_build-25.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
E:Can't open /sdcard/aokp_wongray_build-25.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
This happens no matter which rom I try to flash. What could be the reason?

please verify your download by comparing md5 checksums. If you use root explorer, you can long-press the file and click properties, it will calculate that checksum for you. If you don't have an app to create checksums, please put the micro-sd card into your computer and use an application to do so on your computer. Compare that md5-checksum to the one provided by whoever you downloaded that rom from. If it doesn't match -> there's your problem. If it does match, something else is probably wrong.

You still have the stock recovery installed. You have to flash that zip with a custom recovery. Install TWRP or CWM and give it another go.

I got twrp installed it just won't go into boot recovery so do you know the manual button combo for twrp?
Can't seem to get into twrp reboot just goes to stock recovery even on manual
Just a thought... when you flash a stock image you will lose root. Even though the Goomanager looks like it is installing the twrp it wont work without root. Check your root status through Titanium or rootkeeper etc. Sometimes the debug method seems to tell you that you have root when none of the programs are getting root access.

[Q] Flashing CM11S

Hi there, if anyone could help me get through this installation, it'd be greatly appreciated.
I'm a newbie at flashing, but not a newbie with computers.
I'm trying to flash CM 11S v1.5 but have run into numerous issues. I'm running CWM, have updated bootloader (HHZ11K), and my drivers are on point.
Right now, I'm trying to have it install from the zip in the root directory, and it won't install:
"E:Can't open ... (bad)
Installation aborted."
If I toggle signature verification, it says:
"Finding update package ...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:footer is wrong
E:signature verification failed"
What am I doing wrong?
Bad means corrupt. Re-download

[Q] How to turn off signature verification in CM12?

So I have a Sony Xperia Z3 and i'm trying to flash Xposed framework for Android Lollipop (I run CM12 nightlies) but it fails to flash because it can't verify the signature, I understand I need to turn off signature verification but because the CM12 recovery mode is so basic at the moment, I don't see any option to do so.
Any way to do it through Android itself?
This is what it says:
Code:
E: Cannot load volume /misc!
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
E: cannot load volume /misc!

Try changing your recovery

This should be able to turn off the verification in TWRP
Is there a way I can load the image while in SD Card? Because I loaded the recovery and it can only read Zip files @gregbradley
