Sorry for the newbie question, but is it possible to flash checkrom zip, from internal storage with cwm recovery? i tried and it just freezed on the samsung screen under startup, so i had to flash back to stock rom with odin to fix...
Short answer : yes
Long answer : i'm not sure of that particular order of tasks. But once you get CWM working properly then yes you can flash from internal storage.
MAYBE there is a bug getting CWM working the way you are trying but I would just try it again. 5% of the time something goes wrong with the flash process and that's probably what happened to you.

re:
damn, something strange happend here, after i flashed back the stock rom with odin and got the mobil to start again,the superuser doesnt work... the app isnt there, I get an error message every time I start the phone sayin: error reading hardware from internal interface, and if i try to use apps that need superuser premision. and the kitchen pro app has popped up, it doesnt work but it seems that I am on Checkrom then? WTF!! the phone seems to be heatin more than usual also.. i flashed back to KK5 stock room, and CWM got deleted. now i cant get it back over on CF- root cuz I get error when i try to do so, probebly cuz the superuser problem.., i need CWM so i can reflash.. FML! what can I do?
yes you can, you will find an option to select "install zip from internal sd", which doesn't require ext sd.
superuser
Sure you can install superuser from market.

You have lost root after flashing the stock ROM, that's why your root apps won't run. You need to root your phone again. Just go to Dr.Ketan's thread and follow the instructions.

Youll get your root and CWM Recovery back.
And, as D. Adams said, don't panic.
Hi guys,
I am getting an error as you were getting when trying to install a custom ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S.
I am currently running on stock Gingerbread 2.3.3.
Baseband version : I9000DDJV5
Kernel Version: [email protected] #2
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.DDJV9
I rooted my phone using SuperOneClick and installed ROM Manager on it. Then, I flashed ClockworkMod recovery using it. Now, I am trying to flash Cyanogenmod 7.2 on my device and have downloaded it and kept it in the root directory of the SDcard. Now, whether I go to recovery mode manually or using ROM Manager, I am getting the error as below:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to seek in /cache/update.zip (Invalid Argument)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Also, I get only four options in the recovery mode, viz, reboot, apply update from SDcard, wipe data, wipe cache partition.
I get the same error when I try to Backup my current ROM using ROM Manager.
I searched through threads and found that some people have had similar errors but there is no solution I could find which worked for me.
I have tried clearing my download cache. Also, the download is not corrupt as I am getting the same error when trying to create a back up..
Is there any way I can correct this? Or is there any other work around for flashing like using Odin? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Yes, I can get into download mode..but how to proceed after that?
I am currently running on my stock rom JV9.. so, you mean to say that I should first upgrade to JVU using download mode and then proceed to upgrading it further?
Can you please also tell how to upgrade to JVU using download mode?
Thanks
SIMPLE WAY TO ROOT AND FLASH LATEST ICS
1. Flash by Odin (download Odin) Semaphore 1.2.0 kernel (as PDA, UNtick repartition, UNtick reboot).
2. Take out battery.
3. Go into recovery (vol up + home + power, release power after few secs)
4. In recovery mount internal SD (sdcard) and plug phone to PC. Delete all files from internal SD (if you don't have any important files). Copy latest CM9 and gapps to internal SD. Unmount internal SD.
5. In "mounts" menu use every (excluding internal and external SD card!!!) "format" option.
6. Go to flash ZIP menu and choose CM9 ZIP, then gapps.
7. Turn off recovery (phone).
8. Turn on phone and wait to boot.
Hope I helped.
Re:
Hi,
Problem here is that you didn't flash ClockworkMod recovery. If you only have four options it means you just have Recovery 3e - which is stock on most devices sold with GingerBread. I assume you are new to this so ClockworkMod recovery might be a little tricky to use.
I suggest you go to http://www.darkyrom.com/index.php?threads/darkyrom-v11-0-black-edition-android-4-0-4-ics.7941/ and follow the guide there.
I'm not saying that Darky has the best ROM there is but it does have a nice complete guide for flashing from stock.
Good luck

Hey.. I had flashed ClockworkMod Recovery using ROM Manager..It is also showing that my current recovery is : ClockworkMode 2.5.1.2
But you are right that when I boot into recovery mode, it shows Android System Recovery <3e> written at the top and gives only four options..
I went to the DarkyRom guide you mentioned..Here is the written guide
1-If you're coming from a Froyo (Android 2.2) or Gingerbread (2.3) ROM, follow these steps;
Have your phone rooted with CWM
Make a NANDROID backup & Titanium backup & backup anything you need or find important on a PC
Now, I don't understant what does the first step means exactly? How to go about rooting with CWM and make a NANDROID backup without ROM Manager?
Please help..Thanks
For an update..I found a guide to flash leaked version of 2.3.6 XWJW1 using Odin.. and I have been able to apply that successfully on my phone..I have rooted my phone again using Odin this time.. But now too, if I am trying to backup using ROM Manager, it is giving me the same error.. Is there a way or a guide that tells how to upgrade to cyanogenmod 9 or 7.2 using Odin..instead of doing it through the recovery mode..?
No. CM7 or CM9 you can only flash from custom recovery (CWM).
And one important thing: do NOT use ROM Manager, don't ask why
Just use my tutorial. But be aware that you have to delete anything from phone.

The semaphore you have is for ics.
Only ICS roms will do such as cm9.
CM7 is Gingerbread.
No service, Baseband unknown
The no service problem is still not gone.. I tried installing a modem but it has not helped.. I checked my phone details and found that it is showing baseband version as unknown. I have rolled back to 2.3.6 now but still it is not in service and not showing any baseband either.. Please advice what should I do!! Thanks for the help
You probably have damaged IMEI. If your IMEI in phone status starts with 000... you have damaged IMEI. Now you have to flash stock ROM by Odin with repartition (or 1st with Clear EFS option, 2nd without this option), backup EFS (Google!), use my guide again, and after that restore EFS.
After restarting phone, you'll get right IMEI and you should have network signal.
Hope I helped.
BTW, there's no explanation for damaging IMEI.
got a question probably a stupid one, is it possibile that i cant install CM10 rom on my Galaxy s+ coz im trying to install it from the internal sd card (internal phone memory) coz i dont have an external sd card.... when im trying to install it in recovery mod it gives me the following error:
e:Error in /emmc/cm-10-20121125-ivendor-alpha5-ariesve.zip status7 installation aborted ... i guess its becose im trying to install it from the internal sd card but it worked also like this with other roms i tried, so is there a way i can install the rom in odin without having to use the recovery mode or any other way i can solve this problem?

Flash the latest CWM for Galaxy S Plus and try again.
This is how to flash it:
Download Odin Multidownloader 4.43.
Download AriesVE.ops.
Download recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.9-ariesve.tar.md5.
Than follow these steps:
Turn off the phone and make sure it is disconnected from the PC.
Boot the phone into Download Mode. To do so, press and hold down the Volume Down, Home, and Power buttons until the screen turns on and an Android icon in yellow appears.
Close Samsung Kies Process from Task Manager.
Double-click Odin3 v4.43.exe to open Odin on your PC.
Connect the phone to your PC.
You should see a message that says “Added” in Odin. If not, there might be a problem with your drivers.
Click on the OPS button and select the AriesVE.ops file.
Click the PDA button and select the recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.9-ariesve.tar.md5 file.
Click the Start button to begin installation. Once installation is done, you should see a PASS message. You’re now free to unplug the phone from the PC.
I hope it helps.
@nameh: what do u mean by have u flashed twice? i flashed the stock rom before then i installed the recovery 1.2 with odin and then i installed the broodROM Business Edition v1.2 rom with the recovery mode... now i wanted to try cm10 but im getting this strange error
@educk: i already installed the recovery clockwork and i installed the broodROM Business Edition v1.2 with it and it works but when im trying to install cm10 im getting that error
Mostly you get this error message when you're flashing a Rom with different partition layout from the existing one.
Just flash again the Rom and you will succeed. Sometimes it will take 3 flashes to finish it.
Good luck.

I remember from the day I flashed for the first time (CM9) I received the same error message. When I searched I realized that most troubleshooting says you have to flash twice the same ROM. So you flash it once, then again into recovery mode and flash again (the same ROM).
When I did that everything was solved and working fine.
so basiclly i have to flash the stock rom twice then reinstall the recovery mode 1.2 and try it again? or can i also flash the broodROM Business Edition v1.2 rom again and try if it works?
I would try the second part -

If you a) revert back to stock with odin, then b) get into the stock ROM, you should be able to c) copy the zip files into the phone and d) install them from the recovery, cant you?

Keep in mind that the included recoveries in that tool kit are outdated and therefore won't be able of flashing KitKat ROMs. If you plan on using it, you must download the latest recovery you want to use yourself and replace it in the tool's sources.

Hi,
I am new to this, kind of have no clue how to proceed. I checked other sticky posts, but its a bit confusing. I currently have ICS(4.0.4) on my P970, i want to install CM on it. I have already rooted my device using UnLockRoot. I then installed ROM Manager and tried to do Flash Recovery, but it gets stuck at 100% and nothing happens. I have already downloaded the CM version which i want and copied to my SD card. Whats the next step after rooting the phone ?
Thanks

I had the same probem. You need to try a few times to flash recovery untill Rom Manager will ask for superuser acces. You can also change for superuser acces from "ask" to "allow" in superuser app.

I have tried it several times, its stuck at 100%. When i try to reboot into recovery, my phone does a factory reset, so am guessing the custom flash recovery didnt happen. Any other suggestions ?

It's stuck at 100% because Rom Manager doesn't have root acces.Update your SuperSU,open it: ACCES=GRANT try flash recovery 2-3 times. If doesn't work ACCES=PROMT again 2-3 tries.
Also you can try to backup you current ROM using Rom Manager to see if ask for su acces.
Good Luck!
