Hello,
just bought ROM Manager, because I want to flash CyanogenMod 7.1 to my Galaxy S i9000
Got 2 problems:
1. Trying to Backup Current Rom, I get the following error:
Verifying update package
Failed to verify whole-file signature
Signature verification failed
Installation package aborted.
2. It's unclear to me which device I must choose when flashing the Recovery Image: Galaxy i9000 (no CyanogenRom listed) or i9000 MTD (one stable and 1 nightly CyanogenRom in the list of ROM's)
MTD? What is MTD? Both options seem to flash CWM Recovery.
I must be doing something stupid, and Koushik Dutta doesn't respond to my messages I'd appreciate your help, thanks!

I'm asking for help as well, so this may not be much use, but I read a few threads back that if you have a stock recovery, the CWM or backup won't pass signature verification. It said that you needed to flash a modded 3E recovery image to your phone before proceeding. Like I said, it may not be much use, but it's worth looking into
Edit: Saw the date on this, realized you've probably already been helped >.<

although i did find similar thread, it still doesn't fully answer my questions.
Currently my device is rooted Galaxy S (froyo 2.2, baselin JHJP6, Build JHJPA) with OCLF V2. The device was bought from a local operator (Orange, IL).
Since voodoo lag fix is believed to be better than OCLF, i've tried installing the Update.zip version, but got the 'verification failed' message, and had to abort.
later on, I discovered i used the latest 5.2 version, intended for the froyo 2.2.1.
* is that the reason my installation failed? if not, what voodoo version should i use?
* is there an updated froyo version that i can install, or will it delete all of my local settings?
newest version of froyo is 2.2.1 (JPY) that can be found in the development section, and for the lagfix, you have to have ClockworkMod (CWM) and update.zip wont work you have to select install zip from sd card. then select choose zip from sd card. then find lagfix and apply.
thanks for the rapid answer.
regarding 2.2.1 - i noticed it was ment for european versions (am i right?). are u sure i will be able to use it on middle east device?
in addition, how can i tell which of the various voodoo versions (in the voodoo archive) fitts my SGS?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913 that has all the stock firmwares for all different countries.. you could check that to see if your running the latest version for your area.. if your on the latest you could always try a custom ROM. have a look through http://romkitchen.org
here you can cook up a ROM that suits your needs. you can chose every bit of the ROM yourself.. i dont know about JPY and using it out side Europe. i dont want to give wrong information out.. but read through them links and im sure your answers will be in there somewhere... post back how you get on.
!! help needed !!

Hi, did you find the right kernel for FROYO.JHJPA?
Thanks,
I think you need to apply it twice.
Hello ppl !
Few days ago i became owner of my first android phone, samsung captivate. I am totally loving it, but at some point i realised it has much more potential then as it comes with stock, i made a update with kies from samsung website to gingerbread and i also was able to root my phone, so after researching i found out that this is a best forum for android stuff, spent few days over here reading a lot, but still don't understand how to install custom roms.
my firmware is 2.3.5 , baseband version I897UCKK4 kernel 2.6.35.7-I897UCKK4-CL614489
I'am very keen to start with SimplyStock KK4 V1.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486344) but cant achieve anything.
as far as i understood, in a first place i need to install/flash clockwork recovery, i downloaded few versions but when i try to install it from recovery mode it says:
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted
i also tried to install few custom roms from recovery mode but same issues
i performed wipe data / factory reset and wipe cash as well, and as far as i understood i can wipe system only if i have clockwork recovery that i don't!
so this is my situation, any advise and help would be superb !
thank you guys
Welcome to the world of flashing. First, I would read some of the stickies on how to use Odin.
The easiest way to get CWM would be to flash a kernel with CWM already built in. The Corn Kernel is one such kernel. Flash it with Odin (the tar file goes in the PDA slot). You will then have CWM and can flash ROMS and other packages.
Once again, read first! It can help keep you from bricking your phone.
P.S. Back up your /efs folder (read threads about this one)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Tanks a lot !!!!
I made backup with Efs Pro as a tar file
then i downloaded CornKernel_UCKK4_v603 and flashed it with odin
then i putted SimplyStock KK4 V1.0 as a zip file into my phone and from new recovery mode installed it without any problem
thanks a lot again!!!
Hi guys,
Got myself between rock/hardspot. I'm trying to re-flash kernel on my I9000. Every time I try to flash via recovery (stock 3e), I get error saying failed E-signature verification.
I can't download any fixes from Market/Internet because of error: SIM not detected (this actually is *why* I want to reflash). However I CAN update via tar & Downloader using Odin 1.35, or from zip via stock recovery (3e). I can't flash *anything* (like ROM Manger or CWM) because of verification error above. Phone *does* appear to have CWM app installed, but it boots to stock 3e recovery *not* CWM recovery.
I spent over a week searching XDA and the web and tried many dozens of supposed solutions but can't find one that works. Most were either crapware or required Market access or ROM Manager.
Help! I have little hair left to pull out!

Flash a custom kernel or CF-Root to install unsigned zips.

What he said, gets you cwm.
Plus it doesn't look like you have a modem/baseband installed, that will need to be flashed via ODIN, regardless.
Still No Joy on flashing ROM without Market
Thanks thedefault, but still no joy. Same old problem "E:signature verification failed". I tried CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v2.7-CWM3RFS.zip and CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS. This is the same old problem that's driven me batty for over a week - can't flash any zips. Any other suggestions?
How to install baseband/modem
Thanks nyloncrack. Excuse my ignorance, but where do I get "basebane/modem" to install? I thought this was included in Kernel(s). Note that I can't flash any zips because of E-signature problem, can only install via Odin.
Maybe signature check is enabled by default
Signature Verification IS on
thedefault:
Yes, signature verification is always on. (At least I can't figure out how to turn it off). I read in another thread that the stock Samsung recovery (3e) checks to make sure that the file was signed by Samsung. They further advised the enquirer to roll back to version 2e which did not include this. Of course, I can't get there from here.

But with CF-Root and custom kernel a custom recovery is used. No signature check at all.
Recovery that is in use
thedefault:
I'm not *running* the "custom kernel/custom recovery" - I'm trying to *flash* them. The kernel/recovery I'm *using* is the XXJW4 kernel and Samsung 3e recovery.
BTW: One Step Forward/One Step Back
I noticed that the CF-Root zip actually contained just a tar file. Eureka!, I can use Odin to flash it! But noooooo, after I did so, phone went into continuous-reboot-loop. Arrrrgh.
I rememberd that happend to me once but I found that reinstalling a full custom rom helped me out try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379650 it might work out.

Well, you obviously have flashed wrong cf-root kernel. Grab one that goes with your current rom (jw4, right?). Just flash correct kernel with Odin and it should work just fine
And there's many good guides/tutorials in general section which should be quite straight forward stuff..

Eureka, Success!
I finally got the phone rooted and working. For the benefit of others, I describe what I did:
1. Downloaded SU_i9000XXJVT.zip (non-rooted) that I stumbled across on the web).
2. Flashed PDA+PHONE files using Odin (CODE_I9000XXJVT_CL617736_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5 and MODEM_I9000XXJVT_REV_00_CL1064602.tar.md5).
3. Flashed kernel again with CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS.tar.
The phone booted as root, registered on network (data+voice) and everything worked. Joy!
I think (but cannot prove) that some of my earlier problems were caused by missing or hosed modem file.
Thanks to all who contributed guidance.

Hi
I tried to flash Slim Bean 3 on my original ICS (N7000XXLRK) and it's rooted but it just give me this massage
"Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed"
and i do not what is it means
i tried to flash with hydra core 7 kernel and give me the same massage
please if any one know the solution for this help
thanks alot
I guess you are using stock recovery to do this. lucky that you survived.
you need to use cwm to install the rom.
download philz kernel lrk and install it the same was as you are doing now. Once done reboot into recovery and install the ron
Stupid, stupid, stupid and 1000 times stupid: 10 post rule!
I think this post should be here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1927097
Any way, I need help so I'll take it from where I can. By the way I'm not a android newbie, just N7000 newbie.
I have been last 8 hours trying to flash a new rom to my new N7000. As I'm on a mac and don want to set the "counter" of N7000, my path was going to CWN from that post.
But I'm stuck, as when I try to do a "update from sdcard" I got a:
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
I have tried different downloads in different paths and still the same. I have a VSLB1 original firmware.
Any ideas?
Download Philz kernel (choose the correct one) and flash that through the stock recovery.
I'm up and running....I'll tell how I fix it:
1. I downgrade to an old official firmware trough Odin (just PDA: N7000ZSKJ6_N7000OZSKJ6_TGY.zip)
2. Then I rooted trough GalaxyNoteRoot/runmemac.sh (root apk didn't work)
3. Installed MobileOdinLite (you will need to download MObileODIN FLashKernel N7000 v3.0 => scroll really down on MobileOdinLite post)
4. From MobileOdinLite updated a kernel with CWM (CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LB1-v5.0-CWM5.zip)
5. From CWM installed my desired rom (AllianceROM)
6. Finally, using Odin update the modem (was not working) to XXLT3
Hope this info be useful
