[Galaxy Note 3 General] jangyelo:
Im not an expert in flashing and all the terminology but I managed to get the latest CM nightly working using TWRP recovery.

Edit: [Dont mind the smiley, it just auto converted because of these two symbols being together ; ) ]

Summary of current problem : As I understand, you need CWM recovery to be able to flash the CM nighly zip directly after download.

If you have TWRP recovery, you need to edit the updater script. Here is how:

1) Download the nightly. Here is the link to download the latest. http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hltexx

2) Once downloaded, you will have the zip file.

3) Double click the zip.

4) Double click 'META-INF'

5) Double click 'com'

6) Double click 'google'

7) Double click 'android'

8) Open 'updater-script' with notepad.

9) Delete this line which is the first line in the 'updater-script':

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "hltexx" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "hltexx" || abort("This package is for \"hltexx\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\"."););

10) After step 9), you will have this remaining:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");

package_extract_file("system/bin/backuptool.sh", "/tmp/backuptool.sh");

package_extract_file("system/bin/backuptool.functions", "/tmp/backuptool.functions");

set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/backuptool.sh");

set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/tmp/backuptool.functions");

run_program("/tmp/backuptool.sh", "backup");

unmount("/system");

show_progress(0.500000, 0);

11) Click save. Then click yes when prompted if you ' wish to update it in the archive'.

12) Try flashing this updated zip in TWRP.

13) Hope this helped. Thanks to 'kdisc98' for posting the screenshot of the updater script.
