Hi all,
I installed JPY (2.2.1) Rom on my SGS yesterday, rooted my phone with SuperOneClick.
Tested the phone, everything is ok and the root is also ok.
Then installed Clockworkmod, flash cwm recovery 2.5.1.2, click on Backup, the phone automatic rebooted but presented my with a normal recovery screen.
In it I can do something like; a factory reset, clean card data, restart or click on update.zip (I thing that goes to the update.zip that cwm put on my sdcard).
But when I click it gives this error:
Install from package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Tried everything... What can I do in order to cwm works and backups my sgs??
All the help is appreciated...
Thanks,
you loose 2e recover when going to froyo.. needed for clockwork ..
flash a kernel that restores it ie
chainfire/cf or speedmod or backlight notifiction ie bln kernel.

So what are you saying is that CWR doesn't work with 3e recovery? Only with 2e?
Because 3e does not allow unsigned zips hence the error message..

Thanks for the explanation,
Didn't know why it works with one and not the other...
Anyway, its working now, thanks for all the help!
For anyone that has the same problem, here is what I did:
Flashed the phone with I9000XXJPY and with Odin. You can find JPY here: http://www.multiupload.com/UHJNT0K1F2
Put PIT 512 in PIT and in PDA put the file JPY_JPY_JPY.tar (no repartition selected).
Shutdown the phone after it starts.
Start Odin again and in PDA put this file: CF-Root-XX_XEU_JPY-v1.3-BusyBox-1.17.1
You can download it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
After that you can install CWM. When you click in backup and the phone restarts see if 2e restore appears in top of the screen if so all is ok.
Also, if a normal screen appears just click in update.zip and after that you will see the cwm screen.
In the cwm recovery screen the sgs buttons are like this: back button is the “enter” and the “menu” is the back button.
P.S. If you need to install TPH for Portuguese language just tell me, cause the CSC installed is KOR and you don't have TPH in CSC file to install.
Once again, Thanks to all who help me!

Great explanation but for the record (for anyone looking for a solution), if you're already on a 2.2 firmware, you can simple start at the step of flashing a custom kernel that supports CWM (i.e. there's no need to first flash to JPY).

How about
1. Repartition with a 512 pit from odin.
2. Flash Stock JM8 or JM9 (Usually i am flashing JM8 when things get messed)
3. Use update zip and install clockworkmod from it . (you will not have any signature errors because now you have recovery 2e)
4. Sometimes you will have to apply sd card update twice to get to CWM.
5. Vola, now you have working clockworkmod recovery and you can flash whatever the things you want with it

horrible suggestion you both need to search b4 posting.. been posted multiple at least 20 times now.. you DONT need to go install a new rom and blow everything away on your phone just to get 2e recovery so clockwork works.. search search.. there are kernels out there you can flash to get back 2e recovery

Oh yeah. forgot to mention it. there is a post that have a kernel which gives you recovery 2e on JPY firmware. (Don't know other firmwares has it or not)
Anyway, in my case i like to blow everything and start all over when i got messed up. because i don't use my sgs for very precious works. i'm just playing with it
Kudos to the lgkahn for bringing this kernel thing up

Okay..seems like this thread is getting nowhere..
Go to the android development section and look for hardcore's speedmod kernel. Download the latest version and flash it via Odin.
Btw, let me give you a tip once you are in hardcore's thread. PLEASE READ THE FIRST 3-4 POSTS AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS.
I don't think you are exerting enough effort to research here in the forum so I just gave you one of the simplest and shortest step to have CWM directly.

Hey everyone, I'm trying to play with a couple ROMS, starting with the Darky 7.7 ROM from stock Froyo 2.2 on a Galaxy S i9000.
I've done the following:
1) Rooted the phone using SuperOneClick (proven to be rooted with ROM Manager).
2) Transfered the Darkys ROM.zip to the internal SD Card
3) Downloaded and copied ClockworkMod from the original post (file is update.zip) and transferred this to my internal SD Card
4) Gone into ROM Manager, selected Flash ClockWorkMod Recovery
5) Select Install ROM from SD card
6) Selected Darkys_V7.7_Gingerbread_.....zip
7) Prompted with Backup Existing, or Wipe Data and Cache. I chose Wipe. It tells me I will be brought into recovery to continue.
8) Chose apply sdcard:update.zip
Receive the following error:
Install default apk-files, finished
--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifiying update package...
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Where have I gone wrong? Any help is appreciated
Go to recovery mode (power off then vol up+home+power). If you're already using clockworkmod, then select install zip from sd card. If you're not using cwm yet, select install update.zip to give you cwm then choose install zip in sdcard.

You need to install a kernel that has 2e recovery, this version doesn't verify file signatures, or go back to 2.1.
I see now when I enter recovery mode at the top it says Android Recovery 3e. I'm assuming that should say Clockworkmod Recovery.
It is the next step I'm stumped with
What is an example of a kernel that runs 2e? Flashing is done through ODIN correct? Can you help me figure out how to flash in ODIN, or where I can find a 2e kernel for my i9000?
Grab the latest speed mod kernel from hardcore in the dev section, flash that via odin and it will be 2e recovery. Then follow darkys instructions and flash his rom. After his rom is on depending on where you are you might have to flash your original stock modem but only do that if your phone doesn't register on your network.

ODIN is a program that flashes individual kernels, CSC's, modems and other bits to your phone. It's one of the methods used to flash ROMs also. If you search the forums (or even Google) you should be able to get everything together. I recommend searching for ODIN, the 512 pit file, and then following the instructions below to re-root your phone.

Hi there,
i was trying to flash my samsung galaxy s and put darky's on it but for some reason i can't.
The recovery screen that pops op says recovery 3e (and every tutorial i found said 2e),
i try to "apply sdcard:update.zip
(i downloaded the update file from the darky roms thread)
and i get the error: failed to verify whole-file signature
signature verification failed, installation aborted.
i've got a samsung galaxy I9000XWJPA.
I've flashed the phone using z4root.
Then i've checked with terminal emulator that it's rooted.
I think that there's a problem with clockwork, or that i just didn't install that correctly, so i'm kinda stuck at the moment :s
could someone please help me?
First of all you should get the busybox file and flash it. Then copy the update.zip into the internal sd card and copy the darky rom too.
Before doing this i would restore it to factory settings. Dont root it with z4root, the busybox roots it and it allows you to open the update.zip
Try what i said and it should work.

You are on Android 2.2 which has the 3e recovery. 3e recovery doesn't allow using unsigned .zip files. You should first downgrade your recovery to 2e by flashing CF-root. After you downgrade your recovery, you'll be able to use any update.zip file.
You can find CF-root in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
Since you have XWJPA, you should download the JPA version from the second post. Instructions are in the first post.
Make sure you have 3-button recovery and download modes working before flashing.
oh that's via odin3 right?
i'll try that, thanks
Tell us if there's any problem.

Ok.
First of all disconnect the galaxy from the pc. Close odin. Open Odin, put in PDA CF-Root-XW_XEE_JPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1.tar
Then shut down the galaxy. Reboot it again to download mode. Connect it via usb and then click start. Make sure re-partition isn't checked.
That's it. When setting up odin you can't have the galaxy connected to he computer. If something fails on download mode, you must always restart the download mode or it'll be stuck.
Good luck
aha, found the problem:
there doesn't appear a comport in odin

hi mate i had exactly the same problems as you and it done my head in for about a day and a half but then someone gave me this advice and it worked a treat,
go to market
download sgs kernel
once done flash speedmod kernel using the app
re start phone
once done download darkys rom
reboot to download mode (should now have 2e)
flash zip
choose zip
find darkys
click yes instal darkys
job done
one thing i must point out in 2e is the back button on your phone is now the select button and the menu button on the bottom left is now your back button
hope this helps as it did for me
Restart your pc and make sure Kies is not working at all.
thanks man! reinstalling the drivers did the trick ten points for coldflid!!!

For the record, people do NOT have to flash Darkys or any other custom ROM to get 2e. Simply flashing a kernel that has Clockwork Recovery included will do the trick. Your reco to flash SpeedMod would have solved the problem without having to go further.
Very true but he wanted darkys which was the only reason I mentioned but good to point out for others reading the post

You're 100% correct - my mistake for missing it on the first go-around.
not a problem
Hello ,
I have a similar problem with my Galaxy S I9000 .
I've updated it via KIES to the latest Froyo ( 2.2 as it shows my phone ) .
Next , I tried to install the voodoo lagfix .
I downloaded the .zip file and renamed it to "update.zip" .
Then I copied it to my phone's sd card ( I connect to PC via usb and copied in the 'Phone' folder ) .
Next , I used the 3 buttons ( Volume UP + middle button + turn off button ) and it got into Recovery mode .
I selected the 'update.zip' file and accesed it , but it says :
"E: signature verification failed, installation aborted."
I have to downgrade to 2E first ?
So I have a Samsung galaxy captivate and I have searched constantly for a fix. What the problem is I have gingerbread 2.3.5 and it's just not working when I flash roms. I think I have the wrong cmw recovery. When I try and flash cmw recovery it doesn't give me the captivate option I am rooted. Whenever I try to install rom from sd card I can never find the file and I only have this update.zip so when I try and flash I get the E failed to verify whole-file signature and the the other e: fail thing. Please help! Thanks!

ROM Manager works fine for 2.1, but not for anything else. You need to download any 2.3 kernel that already has CWM baked into it and flash it with Odin or Heimdall. What I would do is go into the development thread and pick any gingerbread-based ROM that is already packaged for Odin or Heimdall and flash that. Then you'll have CWM and you can go from there.
But when I try and flash roms I always get an error!

You're getting errors because you're trying to flash from recovery but you don't have CWM. You can't flash anything from recovery until you have it. Like I said, you need an Odin or Heimdall package, not a CWM package.
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406877
Download the Odin One Click Package. Do some research and teach yourself how to use Odin and the risks involved, then flash it. This will give you CWM and you can then flash anything you want from there.
i already have the heimdall suite but i have no idea what to do with it or how to get cmw on my phone!
Sir refer to this and this and this. Read the stickies for newbs and understand before you flash ANYTHING. You might end up with a nice hard brick...

jayRokk posted a quote with a brief tutorial and I gave you a link with a one click flasher, both of which will put CWM on your phone.
You need to peruse the stickies in the development section to learn the ropes before you start flashing with Odin or Heimdall. There are risks involved that you need to fully understand and the process for how to do it safely has been covered many, many times in there.
Start here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858765
Learn the terminology, the risks, and what to do when something goes wrong, and then go to town.

None of your links ever work
I know you're frustrated...
But do you really think you'll get more help by name-calling? All of the links posted in the thread above take you to useful tutorials on how to flash ROMs using methods other than ROMManager. I've not used ROMManager for, well, anything since the Eclair-based ROMS.
Breathe deep, put the phone down for a bit, and read the links. You'll get a successfull ODIN or Heimdall flash following the methods described therein. I promise!
None of the downloads work though man!
Yes they do... I just checked all of them...
Dude...in the mosaic thread, the second post has an Odin package of the ROM.
Just .tar in pda slot, when it's done it'll boot into cwm, from there just wipe data/factory reset and reboot. Bingo bango you're on mosaic
Thank you so much I'll do it now. It works with 2.3.5 gingerbread correct?
Ok... from the top - I've done a good amount of flashing custom ROMs (B & N Nook and Captivate) and reading on forums but I'm currently stumped. I can't boot into the ClockworkMod recovery - instead I go to the stock android system recovery <3e>. This has been my complete procedure:
1 - Odin3 one-click downloader and connect phone in downloading... mode, click "start" to go back to stock
2 - odin one click "master clear"
3 - Samsung Kies update to Android 2.2 froyo and then Android 2.3 Gingerbread
4 - One click root
5 - Put .zip of ROM on internal sd root
6 - Odin3 v1.82 load ClockworkMod Recovery .tar
Now here is where I am stuck - I have the most up to date ClockworkMod Recovery but I can't boot into anything but the stock android system recovery <3e> (either through the app or by holding volume up and down and powering on) - where if I change the zip file name to update and try to apply update from sdcard I get an error that the signature verification failed. I'd like to install the latest build of ICS but I am just stuck - any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
You'll need a kernel with the non-3e recovery baked in. You can either flash a Gingerbread kernel with CWM (e.g. Boog's kernel) or flash a stock gingerbread rom with CWM in the kernel.
Ok - thank you. I have downloaded that Heimdall one-click .jar file. However I'm having trouble opening it... I feel really foolish ont his but if I extract the files I see a readme file that says I shouldn't be reading it and I have gone the wrong way. But if I open the unextracted file it tries to open in WinRAR and again non of the files seem like a program file that I can just open and run. Sorry about this...
No problem - just double-click the file. The .jar is an executable file that will install the necessary drivers, open the heimdall program, and get everything ready to flash. Once it's ready and sees your phone in download mode, all you have to do is click flash and it will do the rest.
I have now figured out ICS - I think I had the wrong .zip I was trying to install... Does the ICS allow for overclocking?
Ok - my apologies again for keeping going with this (but my main goal is to get to ICS) with that kernel it wouldn't let me install ICS (but I was able to do the latest CyanogenMod). On the Team Hacksung Wiki page FAQ on Galazy S it looks like CM7 kernels don't work - did the one I installed from the above thread have a CM7 kernel?
Does anyone know of a specific kernel I can use to go from stock 2.3.5 so I can boot into ClockworkMod Recovery and install the ICS zip?
I'm sorry - I needed to update or install Java... Then I needed to install the correct drivers - automatically routed to this through the Heimdall program so it was easy enough (I think this has to do with switching between ODIN and Heimdall). Thank you again so much for the help. Time to give ICS a shot
YouTube ics video I had the same issue boog kerneral with cwm baked in it att boot loaders follow the instructions I'm using works great

Flash back to stock 2.1 which includes the 2e recovery which doesn't have signature checks. With that you can flash a cwm zip and get into the clockworkmod recovery. On the captivate you gotta reinstall the the update zip twice, once to install cwm, the other to actually go into cwm.

I wouldn't recommend flashing back to 2.1, as it is much easier to simply flash a kernel with CWM baked in.
That is also an option, both able to be done with several clicks of a button.

any help?
i try to enter to APPLY SDCARD:UPDATE.ZIP
but have the same error :
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verifcation failed
i have galaxy i9000b
also have the superuser , 2.2.1 froyo and wanna upg to ice cream or anything new
i read i have to change the android systema recovery <3e> to 2e ??
here i found a lynck with 3e-fix-unzip-uninstall
but these is for Captivate and doesn't work for i9000b ?
Yea 3e recovery has a signature check, and clockworkmod zips are not officially "signed." Either flash back to stock 2.1 eclair which has 2e recovery w/o signature checks, or flash a custom kernel with cwm already included, as suggested above. I cannot speak for if the modded 3e recovery will work on an i9000b.

Edit: this 3e mod should work on the i9000b, and has worked great for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989

Got it back to it's original state....would like to update to 4.1.1 of someone call tell me the correct files to use?

Hi, I did a search but wasn't able to find an answer...
This is what was running on my phone:
AT&T Samsung Captivate SGH-1897 Rooted
Android V/ 4.0.4
Baseband V/ I9000UGKG3
Kernel V 3.0.8-g2311908/[email protected] #1
Cyanogenmod V/9-20120819-nightly-captivatemid
I placed these three zip files on to the phone:
cm-10-20121118-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd.zip
gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
kernel_V10_4_2_15.zip
I use recovery cwm 6.0.1.2 and did a backup
I then use it to install "kernel_V10_4_2_15.zip" it FAILED so I then used recovery to install "cm-10-20121118-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd.zip" it FAILED
So, I use recovery to put the backup on...and it show cyanogen (mod) 9 FLASHING and would NOT boot.
I went back to recovery....did advanced restore and restored BOOT SUCCESSFUL
then I restored SYSTEM SUCCESS
then I did reboot
the cyanogen (mod) 9 FLASHING and will not go any further.
I was trying to update the phone to 4.1.1 and now have NOTHING...
Can anyone help and tell me what I have to do. I can still get into recovery cwm 6.0.1.2
Thanks will be watching for some help...:crying::fingers-crossed:
MORE INFORMATION:
I went back into recover (after it would not boot the first time) and cleared the cache

Have you tried getting in DL mode and flashing stock KK4?
I think that's your easiest/fastest solution.
From there, flash corn kernel to get root and flash the ROM you want as per their instructions.
Stuck on the AT&T screen

I put the phone in DL mode and used:
i897uckk4 Odin One Click CONTAINS Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe.exe
I am now at stock....how can I get to 4.1.1? Any help here? Do I just put on the Cyanogenmon10 or do I have to do something else. I am very confused now...not rooted either
Thanks

What button combo are you using to get in recovery?
Also, I would suggest to re-download Corn kernel and re-flash it.

Now after getting back to GB 2.3.5 and I am rooted...I am NOT able to update to ICS 4.0.4 where I was...when I use the CWM recovery to flash the zip it says signature failed....Is there something that will flash a zip file via download mode?

You're simply not rooted. go in recovery and make sure root is enabled (assuming you flashed corn kernel that is).
Was Rooted...all is fine now...

Thanks for your response...I finally figured it all out!!!!!!!!!! My CWM was stock which is 3e recovery and requires signature verification....I had NOT use the corn kernel but flash some zip file that roots...don't remember the name. I then realized that it probably did NOT install CWM a newer version so I put the corn kernel on that would put on CWM that would work...Once I had the proper recovery on I was able to put my 4.0.4 back on and CMod9. Then nothing worked properly everything not working like Gmail Media something so I put on gapps the latest that didn't help. I put my TB on that didn't work well 5 failed....google mail would still not work and the something media kept giving a bad message...
I went into recovery and put on a recovery back up I had done 2 days ago and ALL is now WORKING great...
I still want to update to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean but the files I have don't work so I need to look around for a different ROM and ideas would help.
Thanks again for your time...
