+1. Ya just remove the update.zip and the next time you reboot into recovery it should be stock recovery.
i actually tried doing this step already and it didnt remove it from my phone

Were you able to remove the update.zip from your home directory on your phone? If that update.zip is gone then you should not be able to get into clockwork recovery.
In fact to actually get into clockwork recovery you not only have to have a clockwork recovery update.zip on your phone, but you actually boot into stock recovery then have to select reinstall packages to get into clockwork recovery.
I'm going to assume because you haven't shared what you're running, you're running Cognition 2.1.7 which contains clockwork built in and can't be "replaced" since it is the stock. Either that, or you installed Unhelpful's 1.7 kernel manually.
Either way, you can't remove it. You'd need to switch kernels.
i deleted the update.zip but it still booted clockwordmod recovery.
how do i manually removed the kernel? ands after removing what would you suggest be the best kernel/rom to run so that i can overclock my samsung captivate to 1.2

Um I don't think you want to "manually" remove the kernel. You can flash another kernel over your current one using odin or if you have another kernel that is packaged with a clockwork flashable rom you could use the clockwork recovery that you are trying to get rid of. By the way the kernel is your OS, your phone won't work to well without one.
Unhelpfuls kernel is probably your best option if you want to overclock.
i got the problem fixed, and i used unhelpfuls kernel the newest one v 1.7 and even tried the cognition v2.1.7 with unhelpfuls kernels and i was not able to overclock on setcpu.
do you think i should use an older version of unhelpfuls kernels so that i can overclock?
The info you need about how to overclock can be found in unhelpfuls thread

Hi,
basically, i want to install darky's rom onto my sgs, but one of the pre-requirements is for me to have 2e recovery. i am currently running speedmods k12i kernal and have got 3e recovery (which is the problem).
i have found this guide on darkys site:
How to install Recovery 2e manually?
* Download Recovery 2e files from here - Download
* Open Root explorer or ES File Explorer
* Remount system with -rw
* Copy recovery file to /system/bin (replace if asked)
* Copy xbin folder contents to /system/xbin/ (replace if asked)
* Done, you've Recovery 2e on your device now.
but dont fully understand it, especially the 3rd point.
alsoone more thing, i made a backup by booting into recovery and going to backup/restore and backing up from there, it contained these files,
cache.img
data.img
dbdata.img
efs.img
nandroid.md5
system.img
are these the correct files for the backed up version of my rom? and if it is how do i go about reflashing it all?
thanks
oliver
p.s - i never thought id be this needy for information, there is just soething about it i cant wrap my head around without a little bit of guidance.
thanks again....
if i was you i would leave darkys roms alone and stay with it stock darkys roms are supose to be stable why bring 3 versions out in one day i installed 9.0 from 8.1 and it broke my phone so had to reinstall everything if you cant install Recovery 2e if any thing goes wrong with your phone you will be stuck

Firstly Darkyy's rom IS stable. If you had a problem with it then thats just unlucky. if 10,000 people install the rom and only one ruins there phone i would say thats stable. Even kies can crash peoples phones.
Ok now on to the OP.
I went from stock JPY to Darkyy's rom literally in 10 minutes.
Install a kernel such as speedmod or voodoo 5.2 which is compatible with JPx ( presuming thats what your running ) as these have CWM in the kernel via Odin.
Then just get darkyy's rom and put it on your SD card. Boot into CWM recovery and flash the zip from your SD card.
In root explorer, you have a small button on the upper center of the screen. It says Mount R/W

Or you can just go to www.samfirmware.com and flash any old Eclair rom. That would be safest route in my opinion because it will completely remove any trace of you from the phone - meaning that the phone will be as good as new (at least in terms of software).

i am running speedmod k12i 500hz, and my firmware is JPB. this speedmod has CWM, but it doesent say anything about 2e recovery...
but i am going to try and put 2e recovery mon it using that guide now i know...
also, are the files i posted right for a backup of the rom?
EDIT! i have succesfully made the 2e recovery, CWM running from rom manager works perfectly now, (it dint before)

cheers for your helps guys, darkys v 9.0.2 is on and running smooth =D
Just for clarification - the 2e recovery is to allow flashing unsigned .zip files.
ClockworkMod will do exactly the same thing, its a more 'full featured' 2e recovery, if you want to call it that.
Eh, im not too fussed now really, it put my mind at rest knowing I had the 2e recovery...

Running 2.1 i think eclair stock rom... Basically how do i install 2e recovery?
[ROM] Spike Speedy Edition v2.1 site says "Download clockworkmod recovery"
Do i need 2e recovery in this case? Or can i use superoneclick?
well, if you are running eclaie stock, you should already have 2e recovery. are you rooted? if not, do it. i beleive you can with superoneclick (i think) but yeah. just follow the instructions for flashing with that rom and enjoy =]
out of interest how do i downgrade to 2e from 3e on 2.2? im trying to use run voodo lag fix for samsung galaxy s and when I try to run update.zip from (by pressing vol up, home and power) it says "E:Signature verification failed..Installation aborted", which im told is because I have 3e on my Samsung Galaxy S instead of 2e?
Ill link you to a site when im on a pc in like 30mins. It will have a dowload link to the relavant files and a guide. Or you go to darkyrom and look at the guides in one of the sub forums there.

Thank you.
That because you're on 3 recovery(samsung's own) u need 2'recovery there 2 ways to get it.
1.flash cf-root kernel with Odin.then your phone is also rooted.
2.root your phone(eg.oneclickroot).when your phone is rooted, download rom manager from market and follow instructions.
Yay.that the right kernel in your link.but u need to flash it from ODIN.

Hi,
Me for one, likes testing and flashing, but i am not always at a pc to do fastboot commands to restore kernels.
So i decided to make a flashable kernel so i can test roms while i am away from pc, home or at work.
The kernels i have made flashable are EDGANS overclock kernel from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1173225
And also -eval kernels for the OFRF GB port to atrix internationals

It includes SetCPU support. It is only a 1.1ghz overclock. It is still 1ghz by default, you have to use SetCPU to trigger the overclocking.

Hi, I am a new user on the xda forums (although I have read countless threads). I am a little confused as to what I should do with my captivate. I am debating between flashing 2.3 (to which I see only one drawback: there are not many stable roms out there and flashing them can be a struggle as my recovery image is not very functional in 2.3), or sticking to 2.2 and finding a nice rom that I enjoy (only drawback: it's 2.2 and not 2.3! ) So can anyone advise what to do? Thanks in advance!
My opinion: If you're new to flashing, flash a 2.2 rom. There's less chance of things going truly wrong (less true brick chances). Then, once you feel comfortable flashing (and know a little more), make the jump to 2.3.
I'd say go with 2.2, unless you are feeling brave. CM7 and MIUI (both 2.3) have pretty short battery life. Some people talk about having good battery life, but I think those people are in the minority.
thanks for the quick responses. Well I have flashed roms before (not really new to it), it's just that I haven't done it through the clockwork mod recovery because I am not able perform functions in recovery mode when running 2.3 (which is what I am currently running). Is there a stable 2.3 recovery image for the captivate out there? (none of the options in rom manager seem to work for me...) Have others been able to successfully use rom manager on a Captivate running 2.3?? If so, could someone please provide detailed instructions on how to do so?
What are you NOT able to do in recovery mode for 2.3 that you CAN do in 2.2? I mean I have been from 2.1>2.2> 2.3.4>2.3.3>2.3.4 via clockworkmod without any issues.
What exactly are you trying/wanting to do? If you are just trying to change roms? A little more info might be helpful.

well yea basically I can't use rom manager to flash a clockwork mod recovery that is functional on my captivate. This hampers me from flashing roms through recovery. Could someone just walk me through the installation of rom manager on a 2.3 stock captivate and then the flshing of a recovery image (chosing the proper model etc.)? (I think the issue may have something to do with unsigned packages or something like that?)

okay well I found a method a while back involving the replacement of the recovery in the system/bin folder with a moded 3e recovery....

you have some reading to do.
pick a rom that you want, flash it
2.2 and 2.3 will come with android recovery 3e. to get around signature verification error, you need to replace the recovery as you indicated
if you are flashing from 2.1/2.2 to 2.3 (excluding CM7 and MIUI) you will be required to flash bootloaders first before you can flash the 2.3 rom
aside from going from 2.1/2.2 to 2.3, there is no reason to flash bootloaders....
if you stick with 2.2 roms, as long as you take care of the 3e recovery, you use CWM....always
if you go to 2.3 roms, flash the bootloaders ONE TIME, then you can flash as often as you want,

Ohhhh I see.... I don't think I clarified this, but I am currently on stock 2.3 using this method mentioined by: nakedninja42
I personally always remove my external memory and sim card before using odin. It is not needed as people will post but neither is doing master clear. I do these steps just to make sure I eliminate any possible issues that can occur during flashing.
1) Download Firmware from http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-samsungusa.htm
2) Flash back to stock JF6 w/ odin one-click and did a master clear.
3) Flash Gingerbread KF1 using Odin (see image in post link for reference) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=75
4) Flash fugu kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1010141 Look for the step two that says download odin or heimdall, select the ODIN (well the version your going to use).
5) Flash stock kernel (see post link) credit to lownox for helping me on that http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=116

So from here, do I need to do anything additional with bootladers in order to flash other roms - how exactly do I flash roms from this point? Thanks!
if you are already on 2.3, then you already have the bootloaders. you dont need to do anything with odin or bootloaders to get a new rom on. bypass 3e recovery and use CWM... NOT ROM MANAGER, to flash your rom

Sorry to sound extremely noobish... but I thought cwm was through rom-manager?? How do I go about flashing solely through cwm?
on the samsung galaxy s line, cwm is an update.zip file. all rom manager does is put an update.zip of itself on the /sdcard/
you dont need rom manager, just that update.zip. if you have bypassed 3e recovery, it will work.

o okay, that makes sense. I did see that update.zip file when using rom manager. So as I think you have said I already bypassed the 3e recovery because I am now on 2.3? So just find that update.zip file and everything will work through my recovery?

no. any time you use 'official' firmware and not a custom rom, you will get 3e recovery back to defaults. you will need to bypass it again

hello all. I just started diving into the world of rooting (and android for that matter) with a friends old captivate. In the process of installing Jelly bean, I messed things up pretty bad.
I had a corn kernel installed (which I later found out wasnt usable for CM10) and when I then found a devil kernal to use, i found myself getting stuck in a boot loop. Trying to get out of it, I flashed back (using odin) to the corn kernel, which then get stuck on the boot screen with the loading bar at 100%. I then flashed around to a few different kernels i had downloaded in the process of trying to figure all of this out and now I cannot get the phone to boot back into the OS.
What should I do?? Where can I find the proper kernels for CM10 (everything I follow is always dead)? and most importantly, how can I get this phone back up and running. This forum seems to be filled with all sorts of smart people, so hopefully we can figure out a solution quickly.
Thanks

If you can get in cwm, factory reset and re-flash CM10 (as per their process). CM10 will flash with it's own kernel so you don't have to bother with flashing a kernel after.
If that doesn't work, get stock KK4 and flash with Odin (or Heimdall). Then flash Corn kernel with Odin 1.85 and finaly flash your ROM.

Yeah, but from what I've read and experienced, Corn cannot be used for CM10 purposes. After flashing to corn using odin (I can both 705 and 706 saved on my computer) there is no option in CwM to install CM10. I read that corn isnt able to boot CM10, but maybe I read something wrong.

Maybe I'm missing something here but I'm not sure I understand.. The usual process to flashing looks like this (as you probably know):
Odin KK4 stock
Odin 1.85 corn kernel
Flash your ROM through cwm as per their instructions
Flash Gapps
Enjoy
Corn will give you root and from there, you should be able to go get your CM10.zip that is on your internal SD and flash it.
Corn will be wiped as you flash CM10 cause it flashes it's own kernel so it is only to get root when you're on stock.

That's why I said to mount your SD to your PC, make sure where you've put them (in which folder) and also make sure they're actually on it. The kernel won't hide files.. eh
If you wanna make it easy, create a folder for them (and of course, move them in). Folder: CM10. That way you won't be searching all through your phone for them.
so I placed the CM10 in the root of the SD card. On Corn 706, im unable to locate it. I flashed over to Semaphore and was actually able to find the CM10 file, but for whatever reason, when I try to install it, it begins the process and then aborts it.
That would be the norm...just select to install the Rom again from that cwm recovery that pops up.

If you flashed back with the old one click and you're back on eclair you probably don't have the GB bootloaders so you'll have to get them. Corn kernel is meant for GB, not eclair so would make sense if it doesn't work.
Well, I am currently sitting on CM9 with Semaphore. Phone is working, just need to find the correct Gapps, since thats where I store my contact info. I'll mess around with getting CM10 in a few days. I was tired of using my blackberry for the past two days while I have been trying to get this damn phone up and running. I'll do my research to ensure that I use the correct kernels and bootloaders. If you know of a guide for getting to CM10 from CM9, that would be great.

The instructions are in the CM10 thread. I believe they're quite basics, don't need to go back to stock.
Also, if I were you, I'd redownload CM10 ROM. Could be getting those errors from a bad download.

...and just a friendly fyi, if u get the Status 7 error again, when u try flashing to CM10 another day, it is because of the assert script in the updater-script, of what ur wanting to flash, is looking at what the build.prop says of ur phone. (that is even hard to type, lol...someone plz correct me if i'm wrong).
U can search and read up a little probably better than i could type and try to explain it. --- But in the end it is more of a fail safe so that u don't flash something that is not for ur phone.
It will be more clear once u read up on it a little. :thumbup:
The asserts can be edited/removed, build.prop edited, or u could use a different kernel, etc. --- several options as a work around to the error.
