[Q] Always get error message when flashing a rom

[sirmims]

I just rooted my phone and everytime I try to flash a rom via recovery I always get the error message "failed to verify whole-file signature". How do I fix this?

also happens when i try flashing a kernel which i tried researching and other topics said that should work.

Its actually very easy as long as you follow the directions. Remember PDA button. NOT Phone button and you will be fine.
