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".

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.. )

Hey guys! I own a Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2, and want to port cm10.1 to it. I've read various guides for porting but they require a flashable zip. The problem is, my device has no custom rom, and the only firmware available is an odin-flashable tar

Now available cm11 rom for our devices

How exactly do you do this since I don't know much outside just rooting my phone. I would want to know how to flash (using safest way available) a CWM Recovery without bricking my phone or my mom would kill me! I would want to flash custom roms and kernels here.

Do I need to have a unlocked bootloader for this? If so how exactly do you do it. Would it factory reset my phone?

You need a custom recovery (Exept if you're going to flash cm, I highly recommand you twrp over it)

You have to flash twrp, and you can install it with "twrp installer" on the play store

Don't think you can flash any custom thing using your stock recovery
Anyway if you're rooted you can use apps like flashify/rashr etc.. But the safety of these apps I can't guarantee as I've gotten some posts that these kind of apps have led to softbricks in the past
So it means I can install custom rom using Flashify will be risky jeez. By the way can i flash CWM without need of pc and odin? My device is Samsung Galaxy Note 1 (SHV-E160S)

You can flash custom recovery by apps like flashify .make a backup/learn about how you can restore your phone beforehand just in case sh*t happens.
Can I flash custom recovery if the file is .tar?

Check out CWM rom manger that should be able to install cwm recovery.
When I check it out. Samsung Galaxy Note 1 (AT&T) only I did not see any other Samsung galaxy note 1 except AT&T version. Is it possible to install that? Even its not AT&T version?
