Hi
I just installed XXJVK with bootloader and root, now Im trying to flash some of $omator's modifications (Link)
For some reason Im having a problem, says the file is not signed. Tried to copy files manually but that didnt work either.
Can someone please point me in the right direction here? been at it for hours

I think you need 2E recovery in order to install unsigned updates, you can simply flash CF-Root Kernel which should enable you to install unsigned updates.
You can get the info here:

Hi all
I have tried the romkitchen some time ago and all worked fine. Now I tried it again in order to upgrade to Gingerbread and it failed. Cooked the ROM, downloaded it and renamed it to update.zip, booted in recovery mode and installed it.
First thing I notice is that the keyboard does not work. The camera also just shows some very weird dots.
And the worst part is that when I now start up in recovery mode I cannot see anything! Well I can see a lot of coloured dots but am unable to see the menu.
How should I proceed? Can anyone tell me the menu structure of the recovery screen? That way I can hopefully install another ROM (yes I know I will have to guess the location of the update.zip file in the list, but I am getting quite desperate now)
Uh, oh...
Now I cannot even boot the phone.
Any suggestions of how to proceed would be greatly appreciated...
:-(
i think your problem is you didnt upgraded to gingerbread stock
from the romkitchen web site:
WARNING! Before flashing a gingerbread ROM please make sure you have at least the JVH bootloaders. If you flash with ODIN, flashing a stock ROM (JVO, JV9, JV5) will get you the proper bootloaders.
you need to flash it with odin and then use the kitchen to flash a rom from the recovery...
Thanks - I will try to find Odin and flash from there...

phew... Now I have a stock ROM
Tried to install the ROM from romkitchen again but I get an error:
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Does anyone know how to avoid this?
I think I have found it but am not allowed to post the link here since I am a new user.
Installed Simply Honey 2.3.4, cant acess clockwork recovery, try to apply update.zip in stock recovery but i get E:signature verification failed.
You need a kernel with CWM
Update.zip only worked with 2e recovery. As per above post, flash a custom kernel with cwm included.
i little more info please
Can someone please link to a working kernal and Odin instructions on how to flash
Thanks so much

Far ago I have try to update to 2.3.4 nb0 file by flashing via stock recovery. I've tried to flash firmware.nb0 file but stock recovery reporting error and cant flash it. And then, I renamed firmware.nb0 to update.zip (just rename, didnt do anything more) and when I try to flash update.zip its worked. so now I'm running my device on 2.3.4 with no problem.
But now. I need to flash back to 2.2 but stock recovery cant do it. it cant do flash 2.2 nb0 file as a update.zip or firmware.nb0 file. I must use stock recovery to flashing because my usb hub doesnt work. so how do I flash back to 2.2 with stock recovery?
The error that stock recovery reported is the update is unsigned so its stoped.
ooooppp. could anyone help me?
Use SUTL3 program to load stock 2.2. You can search this forum for both.
Hi folks,
here is the situation. I wanted to install one of the ICS ROMs. I downloaded it to my external SD, then I repacked LP1 but when I booted to recovery to install the ROM I got: "can't open blablabla.ZIP" (bad) Installation aborted". I think my ICS file was corrupted.
What should I do ? can I go back to GB ? What are the safest steps ?
Thanks in advance

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For going back to GB you can click the link in my signature!
Or see if you can directly boot into LP1 repack. Then download the ICS rom again u want.
thank you. i was able to boot to lp1. i'll try what's in your signature later.
