Hi all,
I just tried to install clockwork mod by flashing a kernel using odin something I have done dozens of times on my SGS. I was using a kernel file called CF-Root-XX_XEU_JPY-v1.3-BusyBox-1.17.1.tar which as I have said I have used many many times.
Only this time I end up with a phone stuck after boot and apparently force closing in the back ground (the single vibrate followed by the double)
So I am able to 3 button recover it and use darkyy's ressurection rom to bring it back to life.
However I would still like to put this back to a stock rom with CWM and then the voodoo lagfix and sound kernel. Especially since this isnt my phone and the ressurection rom has several bugs.
But everytime I flash a CWM solution it does not work any idea? I end up with either 2e or 3e recovery? it is very strange.
Anyone have any ideas?
Oh and I even tried installing CWM using rom manager and that failed?

I am having trouble getting clockwork mod onto my phone. I had been running P8 for a while and was looking to flash P10 onto my phone today. I have spent all morning trying to get clockwork mod on my phone through rom manager. When that didn't work I tried to get it on my phone by flashing it through recovery. Nothing seems to be working and I still have the stock recovery. After about 10 master whipes and flashes to stock and numerous attempts I have given up and am looking for help.

Do you have the update.zip file?
If so put it on your sd, power down and do the 3 button combo to get into stock recovery. Do reinstall packages and then do it again because it won't work the first time. 2nd time is always a charm for me.
If you have the update.zip on your sd get into stock recovery, click reinstall packages, will boot back into stock recovery, click reinstall packages. You should be in clockwork recovery.
Unless you used the wrong odin and are on ji6 instead of jf6

OK here is what has caused issue...
Running stock.
Rooted using SuperOneClick.
Installed ROM Manager.
Flashed CWM for Captivate - successful.
Backup ROM - boots into what looks like stock recovery (3e).
I click reboot... Android with Yellow Triangle. Requires pull. No way around this. Tried factory reset.
Used ODIN to flash firmware... successful.
On reboot... back into recovery... click reboot and Android with Yellow Triangle.
Any ideas please!!!!???
PS... before going into recovery everytime it does a Movi-check thing and says stuff about media update, application update etc then ends up in Android System Recovery (3e)
Here is where you went wrong. You used CWM for the CAPTIVATE. And your phone is not a captivate SGH-I897
Are you in download mode? If so remove the usb cable when you boot into recovery.
Edit: isn't the i9010 just the Armani captivate?

I was in download mode when I used ODIN but then it reset at the end and the Galaxy S i9010 splash screen came up...
Then into the recovery...
I just need a way to get out of this damn recovery!
And... the i9010 I believe is the Armani Captivate. This is UK one.
some people had trouble with the i9010 rom on the captivate, im not gonna pretend to know why but maybe you can pm the guys from team komin or design gears who have worked with that rom in making it compatable with the i897, they might know something about the differences and inner workings. you are the first person i know of to try anything on the armani model.
install the update.zip package twice in a row.
stop giving newb answers, 3e recovery wont run an update.zip. he needs to flash a kernel with cmw or 2e patched in or a modified 3e recovery before he can think about cwm recovery,
but now his problems run deeper than that.

I've not downloaded any update.zip
Is it already on the phone?? I have not used the stock recovery manager for many moons!!
Anyway, I have managed to exit the loop. When the triangle came up I just kept tapping the menu button and then it reset.
Interestingly though... despite a "successful" flash via ODIN, I have all the apps preinstalled prior to flashing.
Is that right?
yes that is normal, the apps are on a different partition,
the update.zip is installed to your internal sd card when you go into rom manager and select "flash clockwork mod recover" but you still need to run the update.zip twice before you get into cwm
problem is that 3e recovery wont allow it so you need to flash a kernel with a different recovery first, then you can get into cwm, then you might be able to flash back to a proper kernel and access cwm from rom manager
Thanks Dani.
So just to be clear about where I am and where I go from here...
Back into clean JL1 firmware. Had to reroot. ROM Manager says CWM Recovery is installed but I end up straight at 3e.
Is there a way of removing the CWM it thinks is there or a quick way to get into CWM?
Thanks. A lot harder than my Nexus S was...

I thought he was on 2e. my mistake. There is a thread here in this forum including a modified 3e recovery that does not require digitally signed packages. Check it out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909213&highlight=recovery+modified
to be honest you are taking a risk because there are differences between this and a captivate.
normal proceedure is to root-install rom manager- reboot into recovery-"reinstall packages" -phone reboots into recovery again-"reinstall packages" then you are in clockwork mod
but with "3e" you have to root-install rom manager - flash alternate captivate kernel with clockwork mod patched in via oden/neldars kernel app.
the problem is that nobody knows for sure if you can run an i897 kernel or modified i9000 kernel on that phone permanantly. you are the Guinea pig, it might not boot, it might have random problems.
and if it doesn't work try flash to stock-root-install rom manager- flash captivate kernel with 2e/modified 3e recovery (look several pages back in the development section) - reinstall packages- phone reboots into recovery - reinstall packages- phone reboots into clockwork mod- flash proper kernel
big risk flashing kernels though, i'd talk to designgears about it first, he bricked a captivate with an armani rom if i remember right. and i mean hard bricked, no boot loop no download mode, no recovery mode! just black screen!

yeah i did that too. it was from the SBL.bin and boot.bin that was included with the rom from samsung.
it had nothing to do with kernel flashing.
Moved to Q&A as not android development

the kernel from the armani worked fine with my captivate, but lacked recovery 2e or voodoo, so chrisryn made a kernel FROM the armani source for us to use on andromeda....my guess is that it will work fine for you.
hey all,
i have an i9000 that when i reboot to recovery, it ALWAYS goes back to recovery 3e which is a pain. I have to use odin to flash to another kernel temporarily to get 2e back to install a simple update, which then turns into a big complete reset flash when it shouldn't. Anyone know why this happens? I am have attempted with docrom ROMs with both voodoo and speedmod kernels which both include clockwork, but reboot to recovery just goes to 3e again instead of clockwork. do i nede to repartition (using odin and perhaps a PIT) or is this irrelevant and something else is up. My friend has the same phone and never had this problem.
Using Docrom JPJ with speedmod kernel and froyo 2.2.1 atm.
anyone help?
did you find any solutions?
I noticed this with my speed mod kernel.
I found that if you pressed the button combo to go into recovery, let the phone first boot, let all the buttons off and press them again and so on until it boots into cwm recovery.
Worth a try!
Do this when in recorvery:
Install update.zip iy should be on the second slot. If not go to the market and install rom manager. Then there should be a option down the menu that says flash clockwork mod. Do that, boot into recorvery and install update.zip. U may need to install yhe update a few times. Then you should have clockworkmod

Hi there,
Since gingerbread with most probably be the last update for SGS i would like to install a custom mod.
Now i have been trying to do this (darky 10 RC4) for the past 2 days.
I followed Darky's instructions then i had a problem with the CWM only accepting "edified" script.
So i downloaded rom manger and tried to downgrade ta 2.5 but as soon as i tap on the 2.5 it immediately comes up with an error, "an error occured while flashing your recovery."
this is done on a 2.3.3 JVB SGS with CWM 3 installed (orange text).
Are there alternate routes? maybe downgrading to android 2.2 installing an older version of darky and than upgrading the darky rom?
any help is much appreciated.
thanks
Download the rom CWM-zip and put it in your internal sdcard.
Download some froyo-kernel (yes, froyo) with CWM 2.5. Speedmod for example. Then flash it with Odin repartition and auto-reboot unticked. When the flashing process is completed, pull the battery and then boot to recovery (3 button combo). Now you have CWM 2.5 and you can flash the CWM-zip from there.
thanks, i wil try that.
Now you have CWM 2.5 and you can flash the CWM-zip from there.

Sorry. With CWM-zip I meant the Darky's Rom.zip, which can be flashed through CWM.
it didnt work, u just gave up.
hopefully some new rom update that is edified will show up in a couple of months
Install supercurio hacked kernel, it has recovery 2.5 instead of 3.0.0.5. From there you should be able to install darky's rom. If the new version of his kernel is recovery 3, tell me i'll send the old one just for the purpose.
Hi,
ok last attempt
i flashed ( odin PDA, no pit and no repartition) with this link:
Kernel Download:
Gingerbread-GT-I9000-stock-kernel+hacks.tar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=975349
while i was on
PDA_I9000XWJVB - PHONE_I9000XXJVK - CSC_I9000XEEJV3
rooted with root CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v3.1-CWM3RFS
and lag fixed with CF-Root-ext4-v1.2
and it forking worked red text 2.5 THANKS A BUNCH!
edit just a problema. it is only booting in CWM.
reattempting this without the lag fix.
2nd attempt with PDA_I9000XWJVB - PHONE_I9000XXJVK - CSC_I9000XEEJV3
and without lag fix not rooting.
phone stuck looping at booting with strange sound on each boot loop
3rd attempt with rooting, but no lagfix
If you are only rebooting in recovery, did you flash the new kernel, then reboot recovery ? if yes, the easy way to get out, is to reboot in download then reflash the wanted kernel (Since your rom is installed, you can install any kernel (GB of course)) then, it will reboot in recovery again and just reboot system now. This should fix your problem.
edit : Dont forget to get CF-root 3.1 for JVB and not JVK.

i was using using Darky's Rom previously and am using CWM. I haven't done anything since i first rooted it and flashed the kernel using Odin.
I then tried changing Kernels using the Darky Rom app, but i got these blue eyes that kept blinking every few seconds, i should of made a thread then cos i could at least using my phone for around 30seconds but i wiped data and now it gets Bootlooped with the Galaxy Splash start up.
I tried using CWM to flash but it gets an error.I'm gonna try again now and i'll edit the error into this post.
EDIT: I tried flashing 01_Darkys_v10.0_Extreme_Edition_RC3 and i get the error Amend scripting is no longer supported. Amend Scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5. Was necessary to remove it when upgrading to ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery, please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages. Installation aborted.
Would it be ok for me to flash to Darky's V10 again or should i just go to stock and carry on from their? but how should i do stock as i can't use CWM and it won't connect to Odin.
