Gtab 2 GT-P3113 GAPPS fails/aborts - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I am using a GTab 2 GT-P3113. I flashed CWM and installed slimrom. When I try to install the gapps for either slimrom or CM each will fail and abort about 80% through. The error message reads:
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /external_sd/gapps-signed.zip (status 7)
Installation aborted
I am not sure what I can do.
Thanks for your help.

You need to upgrade your recovery. See @Android-Andi's recovery thread in the development forum for your tab. I use and recommend TWRP.
Have a great day!

Error Loading faux's kernel

After following the steps to the letter, I get an the following error while faux's kernel is installing.
Flashing boot.img ...
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/newboot.img", "boot")
E:Error in /sdcard/Pyramid-Kernel-0.0.3-CFS.zip
(Status 7) Installation aborted.
I'm running stock rom. Phone has permanent root. Clockworkmod installed. Any idea's?
Thanks!
I have re-downloaded the kernel with no luck. I get the same error.
Oh I feel like a total noob! I forgot I did an over the air update to 2.3.4, ugh.

[Q] set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed error

Hi guys, I'm getting kind of frustrated with the installation of KitKat KangBang. I'm running on an i9505 with PhilZ Touch 5 with the CWM Base version at v6.0.4.4. Whenever I get to around 50% of the ROM install, I get the "set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed" error. I've tried several different recoveries and I get the same thing every time. What am I doing wrong?
EDIT: I'm dumb. I'm running on M919, not i9505. Lock it up!
RE.
Just update your CWM Recovery.

CM11 (Status 7) Error

When trying to "Clean" flash CM11 (cm-11-20131211-Nightly-d2vzw.zip) with CWM (newest version) I get a (status 7) error and installation is aborted. Any ideas, I search the forums and tried a couple things to no avail, first time i've ever seen this when flashing a rom. thanks in advance!
Can you flash other roms or is it just this nightly? Try flashing an older nightly and see what happens. Make sure you have cwm 6.0.4.3

Update your recovery to 4ext 1.0.0.6 RC2 or TWRP 2.7.0.0!

Try updating your 4EXT recovery to the new test build

In addition to what the others said, try re-downloading the ROM for good measure, just in case something went wrong with the download.

Status 7 means that you need a newer recovery. I just used CWM 6.0.4.7 yesterday to put CM11 on my parents tab2.
Hope this helps
Also try installing zip from " internal " storage.
Pp.
Hi, from CWM download page, the latest version is 6.0.2.7 for the Tab2 10.1 wifi (P5110).
With it installed following Cyanogenmod tutorial, I also have the status 7 error when trying to install both Cyanogenmod 11 latest nightly build, or SlimKat 8 stable.
Device is not rooted, but tried to install ZIP files from internal sd.
Checksums are fine.
I'm interested in the answer if you don't mind me to squat your post?
PS: I'm used to use CWM on my gt-i9100 and gt-i9305 with no problem.

Finally solved by updating CWM to unnoficial 6.0.5.0 found on the post here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548476
Official 6.0.2.7 can't install kitkat roms and CWM team don't update it anymore for the Galaxy tab 2.

If you want a more user friendly touch interface, try TWRP from Android Andi's recovery thread.
