There is some issue of galaxy s i9000 not having a stock 2e recovery. so we ll have to install a 2e recovery from some where. How to do that..
Also, do we need to undo the one click lag fix before flashing a custom rom?
I ve rooted the phone by z4one click root, do i really need to do rooting again with the cf root (for 2e recovery as some say
will the backup done by rom manager able to save the game and browser data?

Depends. If you are using a lagfix (conversion to jfs for instance) and you are going for a ROM based on a Kernel that doesn't recognize this kind of File System, then you are probably gonna have some isuues.
By the way, no, you won't have to do any rooting again, since CF Root kernel is already rooted

Thanks. Hey i have rooted using the RyanZ Z4root. how to find out whether i will require to install the 2e recovery while using Rom manager for putting on the darky' Rom extreme.

OK, so you are on a root-ed device, without any lagfix on, right?
If that's true, then you have many ways of installing Darky's Rom even if you don't have recovery 2e.
You could use Darky's ROM Configurator (found on market),make your selections and then download this and install it, just like you would with ROM Manager.
My Recommendation:
You could also download an ODIN version of Darky's ROM - BASE ROM, so that you won't have to mess with recovery 3e, and then apply Darky's "FULL" ROM, through recovery 2e.
Once Darky's ROM is installed, recovery 3e will be replaced by 2e
By the way, if not sure about whether you have a lagfix activated or not, I suggest that you choose to install Speedmod's kernel, through Darky's ROM configurator.

[Q] Install new ROM 2.3

Hello,
I try to install new ROM the my first time (and also try to backup my ROM)
So I root my phone (I hope I did it )
and I install ROM Manager .
I download ROM Ultibread-V1.4.ZIP and copy to the root of the SD.
When I open the ROM manager and select to backup my ROM or select Install ROM fro SD Card and get into recovery mod I'm getting only the following options:
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip (this all the time give me error that the file is corrupt even if I download and copy new file
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
format internal sd-card
How can I solve that ?

An easy alternative would be to flash any Froyo Kernel. It would give you Clockwork Recovery directly. You just have to boot into recovery and apply the ROM.

Thats because stock rom can not run unsigned update.zip.
Try to flash speedmod or ultimate kernel via ODIN.
But please make sure that you have 2e or 3e recovery before you use ODIN

Flash cf root in Odin. This will give you 2e recovery which you need to install zip files. Then flash speedmod Odin version and you should have working cwm.

hi dude,
what I would suggest is using Darky's rom ressurection edition
i had the exact same prob but it got solved
it's a little difficult but you shouldn't get stuck if u follow the instructions well
link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=940671
this should work

I think I'll wait with flashing Gingerbread for Darky's rom based on it Wouldn't change that for anything else!

[Q] Help With Custom Rom installation.

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.

and also thanks for pointing out that i had the wrong root (i worked by you never know if it could case problems)

ps it wasnt stuck the previous time, i was pressing the middle key as the selection while i should have been pressing the power button.
thanks for your help very much appreciated.
if i get some free time i will write at tutorial since i could not the solution.

CWM 2.5: How to upgrade to 3?

I currently have ClockworkMod 2.5 and am trying to upgrade to 3 to install CM&. I currently have Doc's ROM, if that makes any difference.
ROM Manager doesn't give me any options to update to v3.
The CM7 wiki has steps to update for non-rooted users, but I don't think I need to do that.
I am looking for a CWM download to install via Odin. Is this the simplest method?
I've searched this forum as well as the web, and I can't find anything related to the Vibrant.
Any tips would be appreciated...

Do you know that Vibrant has its special sub-forum?
Edit: Yours is Bell's Vibrant. Never mind then. Just flash speedmod kernel.

That's it... Flash a kernel that it has cwm... Isn't depending of the rom.

Have you tried using ROM Manager and selecting Flash Clockwork Recovery?
For me it asked me what phone I was using (select Galaxy S MTD if you want to use CM7) and then asked what version of CMW I wanted. Just choose CWM3.x there and you should be fine. It will tell you that your current phone isn't supported, blah blah, but ignore it.

I'm sure he's going to install CM7, not already installed. Just use speedmod kernel. There's no need for CWM 3. If you got CM7 installed, it's automatically CWM 3.

Actually it is not completely automatic, you still need to flash a CWM3 recovery from inside ROM Manager, otherwise you can't see CM7 Nightlies from ROM Manager.

Thanks all.
I was able to get CM7 on my Bell Galaxy S.
I did try the ROM Manager but I couldn't get it to update CWM. It would try to install from Android recovery 3e, not CWM.
After many loops of stock 2.3.3, Doc's ROM 2.2.1, CM7 Nightly 15, and other steps, I was able to manually flash the nightly 18 using CWM.
For some reason, the update method for stock mentioned on the CM7 Galaxy S didn't work for me. Even after flashing speedmod kernel, I still came up with CWM 2.5.
Also, even with CWM 2.5, I was able to flash nightly build 18. Hope this helps someone else trying to update CWM.

[Q] Can not flash cwm recovery

Sorry for repost, wrong category.
So, here's the story again .
1. I had 2.3.3 xxjvo Gingerbread with cfroot
2. I flashed 4.02, the platypus one
3. I wanted to go back, I used my cwm backup
4. Cwm's were different version -> soft brick
5. Flashed stock froyo with 2e recovery
6. Unbricked phone with dbdata.rar
7. Noticed still have the 4.0.2 kernel
8. rooted the phone anyway with cfroot because no root
9. Got Rom manager, Superuser. Flashed recovery from the app
10. Noticed: still 2e recovery.
11. Tried to reflash. No result.
It asked the permissions and everything, why not work?
Also, is there a way to install a fully stock rom and kernel with odin?
Can 4.0 be flahed with odin?

Instal a stock rom and then flash CF-root from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108

I'll try, but I kinda did that already.
Where can I get the original xxjvo rom with the kernel, the links seem to always bee broken!

Man try this:http://androidadvices.com/info/samsung/galaxy-s-i9000/page/4/

I solved this one myself: I made a cwm backp, which messed things up from the beginning, but I knew it was valid.
I got a very similiar rom to my own, flashed it, cfrooted and used cwm to restore the old file:
IT'S UP 'N' RUNNING WITH ALL ITS APPS!
I am so glad, I will probably go to ICS again but now I'll just flash the firmware and use my backup. I gotta love this SGS.
