I need ROM to flash with Odin. Clockwork thing is not working for me and all the modded rom's are clockwork oriented. I am actually dying to install cynogen. Off late they stopped releasing odin versions. Somebody please suggest some rom better than the stock Froyo which is flashable using odin.
My phone is rooted and unlocked.

Exactly i am in leaked froyo ji6. I rooted it.
You have two options. Swap in a kernel that has 2e recovery or flash back to stock and then flash the rom of your choice.

The version you are on had a recovery that prevents you from using clockwork

So has anyone had any luck installing clockwork using rom manger with the new froyo release that came out today? It doesn't allow for un signed updates. Now I have seen post about using the vibrant file but not sure how that is to work.
Lol umm u have to use odin to flash a ji6 kernel with the 2e recovery then use cwm flash then reboot into recovery mode and hit reinstall packages. And joila! But u may have to hit the reinstall packages twice and it will work fine. At least with my cappy it does.

Better safe than sorry, I just started contributing after quite some time now so I do not blame you one bit.
However...
That link is the CWM recovery for 2e bootloaders.
What ROM are you using?
You can always get ODIN 1.82 and flash an optimized kernel like hardcore's speedmod K9A which already has CWM.
EDIT: haha or you could just ODIN one-click to stock, root, and go CW Rom manager and from there flash recovery. I know that will work 100%, but that link is just a shortcut through all that nonsense.
Just flash clockworkmod recovery.
I had this problem the other day when I was trying to flash a new rom. I tried flashing CWM many times to no avail.
Like one of the previous repliers said, I flashed the speedmod kernel which had CWM already. The kernel can be found here.
Use Odin to flash it. After that, i could boot manually to CWM, but when i tried to boot to it through rom manager i was pushed to the stock recovery. In that case, I simply flashed my rom manually with CWM.
Theres also a good video on this for the i9000 which worked for me:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7xV0yE9ZcA
Hope this helps.
So guys, I need to know what the easiest ROM to put on my Captivate is. I'm rooted on the stock Froyo and I'm coming from the Aria where it was really easy. But, a couple days ago I bricked my Captivate and now have new one. And coming form the Aria I never had to worry about download mode (which I still don't quite understand) and bootloaders and Odin3 (which doesn't register my phone when my phone is in download mode, however, it registers it when out of download mode). So I need a good ROM that all I have to do is boot into CWM and install from SD card because thats all I understand as I have been doing that on my Aria. Please help me find the perfect ROM. Thanks so much. Love you guys here at XDA!
If you already have CWM, all you have to do is boot into recovery and choose install zip from SD card. This will work with any FroYo ROM.
If you don't have CWM you need to mod your recovery before you do anything.
You should be able to mod your 3e recovery from your computer, check the stickies for 3e recovery Modding, its really easy, and caries no risk of bricking.
Then, using modded 3e recovery you can flash CWM with an update.zip then flash a ROM.
Or, rename ANY froyo ROM "update.zip" and flash it directly from your modded 3e recovery. I recommend FireFly or Cognition personally.

Yes, every Froyo ROM'S can be flashed with ClockWork Mod Recovery, you can download ROM MANAGER from market and you just touch "Flash clockwork mod" and then you have it, put the .zip files in your internal SD, and flash them using CWM.......

That is one way to obtain the CWM install file. But you still need to mod the 3e recovery before you can install the CWM recovery. Otherwise when you try to install it you will get the signature verification failure.

how do I mod 3e recovery? Whenever I use cwm to reinstall packages, it says full signature verification failure. Or something close.

Do some reading. Search for 3e recovery. There are a lot of threads on it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
go to the general sub-forum and look at the stickies at the top. There is a whole sticky dedicated to 3e recovery.
Ok. Thanks!

If you can get in to download mode, then you can use Odin or Hemidall. Most roms will root you automatically.
Not really. Not many roms are odin/heimdall. You need to root and install cwm to be able to install a custom rom

no you dont.
if you are on 3e recovery, then you just need to flash a kernel via ODIN that has CWM built in
CWM has nothing to do with root. on galaxy S devices it just creates an update.zip file
Rooting your stock ROM is actually not required to install a custom ROM, depending on which ROM you are installing. For some, all you would need to do is place the Clockworkmod update zip on you internal sd, along with the rom you want to install, then boot into CWM using 3-button combo, reinstall packages twice, install zip from sd and that should be it.
However, there are some details that you may encounter such as:
If you are on stock 2.2 you have to get around 3e recovery which wont allow you into CWM recovery without a hack. Or you can flash back to stock 2.1 to avoid this problem entirely (using ODIN3 1 click, if you know how)
This simple install is really for custom Froyo 2.2 ROMS, which looks like what you should be doing anyway if you have to ask this question.
Just READ as much as you can before you do anything.
If you simply dont like the idea of having root privileges you can remove root after installing a custom rom. I have done this for my friends in the past so they dont go do anything stupid on accident. There is a 1-click root/unroot app floating around the forums for the galaxy S that has worked for me on all 2.1/2.2 roms but never attempted with gingerbread as I use root and haven't flashed a friends phone in a while.
Hey guys, I'm helping a friend out with his bricked captivate, just wondering, is there a Odin .tar I can use to get him; 1 back to good health on any ROM; 2 have a stable custom recovery. Ty. Happy new years!

Read before posting...read the stickies....and you didnt mention what kind of brick....is it soft brick or hard brick...what kind of rom? Froyo or GB?
For all the odins for Stock roms and kernels
I decided to Odin a few of those, but, for whatever reason cwm recovery doesn't start up, goes to the 3e I try to reinstall packages, sends back signature errors.

Flash a kernel with CWM or find the modded 3e recovery fix.
Tried, both froyo and gingerbread with and without bootloader, with and without cwm also.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
You are doing something wrong. If you use a kernel that has cwm baked it there is no 3e it goes to cwm.
