I know its been a while that this has been posted, I have used the code that all of you provided and came up with this. This is working great for the actual question. Checking if the zip file is corrupted or not

private boolean isValid(File file) {
    ZipFile zipfile = null;
    ZipInputStream zis = null;
    try {
        zipfile = new ZipFile(file);
        zis = new ZipInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
        ZipEntry ze = zis.getNextEntry();
        if(ze == null) {
            return false;
        }
        while(ze != null) {
            // if it throws an exception fetching any of the following then we know the file is corrupted.
            zipfile.getInputStream(ze);
            ze.getCrc();
            ze.getCompressedSize();
            ze.getName();
            ze = zis.getNextEntry();
        } 
        return true;
    } catch (ZipException e) {
        return false;
    } catch (IOException e) {
        return false;
    } finally {
        try {
            if (zipfile != null) {
                zipfile.close();
                zipfile = null;
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            return false;
        } try {
            if (zis != null) {
                zis.close();
                zis = null;
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            return false;
        }

    }
}
