[Q] Stupid newby question

Can any rom be installed from recovery?
Im trying to install a rom that has the following instruction but i dont understand them. I am rooted by the way
"installation guide ( for beginners):
1- flash your phone with 2.3.5 JVT with repartion checkbbox (with odin)
2- install semephore kernel 1.8.1 (with odin)
3- install lagfix file ( install recovery menu)
4- then you have ex4 program in menu . open that program and choice convert to ex4 .
5- install the rom from recovery menu."
Im using 1.12.9 MIUI rom which is based on 2.3.7 JVK

First download stock ROM JVT just search it up in the forum flash it through the program ODIN and then download the semaphore kernel and put the tar in the PDA section and flash through ODIN again. Then download ROM manager off the market and flash Clockworkmod Recovery through the app and boot into CWM and flash the ROM

[Answered] stuck on recovery verification error SGSI9000

choosed my phone *samsung galaxys i9000*
downloded and installed successfully (alleged)

and in red text (E:failed to verify whole-file signature "and" E:signature verification failed)
.............................
i don't know what's wrong here ... all i wanted to do is to apply updatefile.zip of cyanogen mod ....
..............................
i downloaded the updatefile of CWM and renamed to update.zip and tried to update from the android system recovery 3e it gave me same red error
..............................
can some one help me here please i'm stuck and don't know what to do .

I had some kind of this message one time, try to go in download mode to write again the PIT file.

i didn't understand what you mean by write again the PIT file .... you meant open odin3 get another PIT file ? or re-flash the gingerbread and then root it all over again ? you think this would fix anything ? i'm still confused not sure what to do

If you want CM, just flash custom kernel as a PDA in Odin. You will get CWM.
Then go to CM thread and follow instrcutions.

one last question ........ can you suggest a kernel to me .. I'm on rooted 2.3.3 gingerbread JPJV6 ..

3e is your problem, it only allows Samsung-signed packages. I'm using ChainFire's CF-Root kernel with stock JVT (until I get TeamHacksung's ICS working properly!)

Well, if you're going to CM, it is same what kernel to use when flashing CM. Just pick one up, like Semaphore, download it, put it in Odin as a PDA, flash it. Then you have CWM. In CM you can't use what ever kernel you want

thanks i'll download semaphore kernel and see what's gonna happen i appreciate your help here really

[Q] Galaxy S stuck on boot screen

i can go in download mode and in recover mode but in recover mode i got :
E: unknown volume for path [/data]
.......... ( and more errors )
what can i do?
i dont have clockworkmod...
i was on I9000XXJVO and if i can recover it by using odin give me a download link for an rom (A)

You could have found this if you used the search button.
Generally your error can be resolved by flashing a stock ROM with PIT and partition ticked.

Stock rom can be found at sammobile.com..

thanks i fixed it now and rooted my phone but can i install a custom rom of will i get the bootloop?

Custom rom use new version of recoveri. When you went in bootloop pull out battery, and put it back and then enter in recovery and flash custom rom

well there are some custom rom that after applying it the phone is stuck on bootloop usually you just have to remove battery then install the update again..
btw just follow the instruction on to how to update to your chosen custom rom and make sure you followed the pre requisites as to avoid bricking your phone...
there are some custom rom that requires certain firmware before you could actually update to that custom rom. like if you need to be on xxjvz update your phone to xxjvz first then apply the custom rom.
try sammobile.com... for some stock firmware if ever you needed to update to it...

Unbrick
Thanks this was the only thing that surpised me on galaxy player

Install GB before go ICS
I think there's no ICS 3 file to flash with ODIN because samsung does not provide it.
So you must install GB 2.3.x before go to ICS.
After install GB then you install CWM then install ICS from CWM.
Hope it help.

First of all u dunn have to unzip the file... Put the file into your SD Card (Internal or External)
Now these will be the steps to flash Rom.
If ur rooted and have CWM.
Then :-
Reboot into CWM Recovery.
Flash JBRoid Cleaner.
Flash Abyss 4.2
Reboot Recovery.
Now you will have Redpill Recovery (Red Version)
Wipe Cache/Dalvik/Data.
Flash Zip File u have downloaded.
Reboot System.
And please search before you open a new thread as it makes a cost for the XDA...Just a suggestion..If u need further information or links post here... I'll try to help ya out at my best...
