whats the problem? did you do a md5sum check on the file to make sure its not corrupt? are you sure its for your variant only?

I checked and it's not corrupted. It is also for the i9100g variant only. But when i flash the rom, it always fails. When i flash,it appears 'error'.

So you already have your i9100G rooted with custom recovery?
What recovery are you using to attempt the 4.4 rom ?
You should always provide a bit more information when asking for help.
Phone model/version? Custom recovery name/version? etc.
Also what precise 4.4 rom + link are you trying to install?

does it just say error? or like Error 7, give us the entire log when you try to flash it.
Edit: now that I think of it, are you on the latest CWM? also what version of android are you coming from? if its gingerbread I don't think CWM will let you flash it because it knows it will brick your phone since your on gingerbread boot loaders. might have to flash a jelly bean rom first.

Phone model: Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100G
Custom recovery: CWM recovery 2.6.3.2
I'm coming from the android version of 4.1.2
I'm trying to install the Bam 2.0 rom.
When i flash , it says:
"Error 7
Installation aborted"

yikes thats a old version of CWM, im thinking thats the problem, just update it from Rom manager which you can get on the play store.

I tried and it says "no recoveries found for your device".
Can u please help me find a recovery for my phone (S2 I9100G)..

i would look for a different custom rom then, amon-ra would be fine i think 2.6.30 (not sure exact version but its X.x.30) is broken so be careful.

Thank you, guy.. The problem was the recovery.. Now I'm using TWRP 2.6.3.0 and I'm able to flash rom.. I'm using the SlimKat rom.. thank you very much.. )
