How do I get clockworkmod on my tab? I know you can flash it via odin or mck, but where is it?
Koush website is not up anymore, and I can't seem to find odin, or the mck software...
Can anyone help?
Thanks on advance....
Take a search in this forum. You'll find it. Or you can use Paul's Modaco Kernal R3 which has CWM built-in.

Use MoDaCo kernel with EXT4 support and follow instructions. It converts system partition to EXT4 and installs CWM recovery that has full functionality and works.
I have been searching the internet for two days...and this forum. I have my tab rooted, and the bootloader patched..
With these kernels that I am supposed to flash, do I just place it in the root of the sd card and pray? There is definitely info, but it is outdated and confusion....

so finally got clockworkmod recovery on my galaxy tab....doesnt work. I can't get it past verifying file signature....... (please help).
I have the t-mobile galaxy tab, and kies doesn't connect to it.
I have installed and uninstalled kies so many times it isnt funny.
I have rooted the device, applied the bootloader patch. Because I can't seem to connect to the device....
Is there anything that you have to do differently for the T-Mobile version of the device?? I think a lot of these instructions that I am seeing posting on the board/forum are for international versions of the device....
Any suggestions? I am trying to flash the r1 mck rom with the online kitchen...

Go to modaco r3 kernel thread first and read the instructions. You have to flash the kernel first, the modaco r1 ROM
You can't flash with KIES. forget KIES.
You will need Odin for that
Here is a easier way to flash it.
Kernel
1.Download Modaco kernel here: http://android.modaco.com/content/s...aco-custom-kernel-for-the-samsung-galaxy-tab/
2. Extract it by using winzip or some extracting software.
Heimdall
1. Download Heimdall https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/Heimdall/tree/v1.1.1
2. extract Heimdall
3. Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributables http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...5E-6DE6-4D3A-A423-37BF0912DB84&displaylang=en
4. Open Heimdall folder and open read me file.
5. Put tab into download mode by holding Power plus Volume Down
6. Open Driver folder and Install Zadig.exe drivers
7. Start Heimdall Frontend.
8. in the zimage section of heimdall browse from the extracted zimage and open. make sure zimage is checked
9. hit start button and it should flash the kernel.
The tab will turn off and hold down Power plus Volume UP and you should be in Clockworkmod
ClockWorkMod from ROM Manager
Perhaps this will help:
I installed ROM Manager & ROM Manger (Premium) from the Market.
Just make sure you have ROOT, then install ROM Manager & ROM Manager (Premium), run the app and choose "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" from the screen. It will install the current CWM. It worked fine for me. I have Roto JMG flashed on my Tab.

Now that is even easier than my long winded way.
Well, I have a problem... I am not new to flashing, rooting, etc. But I had never used heimdall before. I followed these instructions to the T and when I hit the START button, it gave a FAILED message.
The TAB then shut down and rebooted to a "phone, exclamation mark, computer screen and nothing is happening.
I have searched and found several threads, posts, etc. that say this is recoverable... but they were all for a Euro tab, and not the T-Mo.
I dont want to go too much further without knowing exactly what needs to be done. Any help is greatly appreciated as I am to be on a plane to Dubai in less than 6 hours.
Thank you kindly!
UPDATE: The good people at T-MO exchanged my TAB even though it was 2 days outside the 30 day return period.

I had the same thing happen once. Sometimes it takes a couple of times to flash. I don't know why.
What I did was turn it off and then put it back into download mode and flashed it again and it worked w/ no problems.
Did you get another tab or just return it. I have the t-mobile tab and used these instructions to a t and I have had no problems.
I was given a new Tab... Im going to wait awhile before I try again.
The issue was that I could not get in to download mode.
You could have just had a bad tab. I had problems several times when I had the sprint tab flashing but none so far w/ the t-mobile tab. Which directions did you follow.
I will tell you this, even though the T-Mo Tab is listed in the Rom Manager install, it DOES NOT WORK.
It shows as installed, but go ahead and try to use it... It fails with a signature failure.
I don't use it. I flash mine via CWM. I can tell you CWM works great that is built into modaco kernel.
Hi,
what about German Tabs? Rommanager, CWM is only for Verizon an T.Mobile USA ( i thinkso), installed CWM, but no start in recovery.....
And, why ALL new Roms use this EXT4 on SD-Card?? Is there no other way and easy way to make EXT4 Partition on sd? G-Parted has damaged my PC two times, so i have no interest any more to do it like this way.....
Is here still someone, German Tab is running well with CWM and EXT4?
jammysunny
I did this but I can't get CWM to work properly. It's not finding something it needs on E: and I do have an external card on my Samsung Galaxy Tab T-Mobile.

I ran into the same thing w/ my tab today and I had to use a different SD card. I formatted the new card popped it in and worked like a charm. You may have to do the same.

I just rooted my T-Mobile Tab that I got today, wanted to get CWM up and running and it will not run. Getting the same "E: Failed to verify whole-file signature"
I am running CWM from the Market and it says i have Version 2.5.1.8, and that it installs successfully, but it will not boot into CWM.
What am I doing wrong?
Stock, ICS Update new to Samsung devices. I own a Note for 10 days. It is on 2.3.6 XILB1 which I found out to be Italian Global. It is not rooted.
I would like to upgrade to ICS but when I searched the forum the are many threads with download links and I am confused wichone to download(wipe or non wipw???)
In a thread I've found
Just download the ICS file and flash via Odin.
1. Unrar ICS file.
2: Power off the phone.
3: Press and hold Power+Home+Vol Down to enter download mode.
4: Open ODIN and under PDA, load the tar/md5 file which you just downloaded.
5: Under ID:COM, wait for the device to be detected. You will see a yellow color with some port number inside it.
6: Hit Start and wait for ODIN to flash the new ICS firmware on your Galaxy Note.
As far as I understand I need PC Odin to flash but will it harm my device to flash a Germany Rom to Italian device. With HTC I had to change the CID according to ROM or Super CID the phone.
I prefer a clean install and setup so I don't mind loosing all my data and install all my apps back. Also I am mot planning to root my Note for now since I've only used root change boot animation and install Quick Boot and I can live without them.
A link to direct me to the correct file would be very appreciated.
thanks and best regards...

You may want to refer to this forum http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2337733
lots of guide
- Download the ROM from here
- Open PC Odin
- Go into Download mode on your Note
- Extract the zip and flash the md5 file
Voila.
the md5 file goes in the pda slot of pc odin, if your not familiar with it and make sure you have the samsung drivers installed, easy way is to install kies and plug your phone in and wait for it to connect once to ensure you have the proper drivers
I keep getting stuck on zimage. Uninstalled kies and left the drivers, so its not that. Any ideas. Never had issues flashing my epic with odin.
Ok , step by step of what I did and where Im at now .
I got the Note 4 today . Played with stock firmware for a moment ( last running firmware was Anj7 baseband stock unrooted ) . Booted into download mode rooted with ch-root and checked nand erase all in Odin . I believe it erased the stock rom . Binary was changed to custom confirmed in download mode screen .
Then Flashed TWRP .
boot into TWRP when I try to wipe it says
cant mount /data cant mount anything basically and wipe fails because nothing will mount.
I try to install FireKat v5 rom and it says successful despite TWRP wont mount anything( is v5 anj? . Do I need to flash stock rooted before I can flash any other rom ? )
Reboot after install and it goes into a boot loop after boot screen transitions into boot animation .
So at this point I have no bootable rom . It doesnt appear anything will mount in TWRP for some reason .
And Im considering flashing sammo official ANJ rom to atleast get a working phone but I dont know what changes the bootloader version be it ch root or flashing a rom . And right now Im scared if the bootloader has changed and I try to revert to an older bootloader with the sammo official anj rom it could hard brick .
Im gonna need some serious advanced help here. I never done nothing like this mess before

Let me try my noob expertise out lol...from what I know the only way to hardbrick is by using the wrong modem on your variant. So I think you have nothing to worry about. What you have is soft brick.
Download from sam mobile nj7 or nk4 firmware and reflash via odin. Hope this helps.
NOTE 12-10+2 ?

Ok im downloading nj7 right now . I think the problem I did was erasing nand when I did first root and it caused no partitions to be set.
What part of the root process was not clear. If you look online u will find step by step rooting video. Go back to stock and try again thru odin
BAD ASS NOTE 4
Just flash stock rom with Odin and start over. Don't do the crazy erasing step next time. These phones are hard to brick. I've honestly never seen one I couldn't fix.
Yes, in Odin you shouldn't be clicking anything other then the pda box to put the proper tar in. Which of you download the cf auto root zip. Then make a new folder on your desktop. Open the downloaded cf auto root zip. Then highlight and drag n drop all files/contents of your Cf auto root zip into the newly created folder on your desktop. From the newly loaded folder right click on Odin run as administrator. Once in there put your phone into download mode and hook it up via USB to your pc a blue box with the word Com and a number will pop up in the upper left. The number doesn't matter as long as it says Com and a number, this is odin's way of showing it recognizes your device. . Hit the pda tab it'll bring you to that folder with only one file showing. Double check it's named Tmo to insure you downloaded the correct one. Select it. Odin will automatically fill in the proper boxes.
Hit run and it should knock it out fairly quick.

I have an problem,my note III wont boot,it goes straight to the stock recovery.This happened after I reinstalled safetrap,but I didn't uninstall first before installing new one,so I'm guessing thats what I did wrong?after I installed,I pressed on reboot to recovery and now i'm stuck.I restarted the phone a thousand times but it keeps going straight to recovery after the note III logo screen.The Rom it was running is Alliance 9.1 Lollipop. What should I do?Please help,and sorry for my english.
Power off your device then hold the power button, volume down button and your home button all at the same time until you enter download mode. Once in download hit volume up one time the using your USB Cable
You can use Odin to downgrade to NC2 and root it. Odin v.3.10.6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3109599&d=1420980613 and N900AUCUCNC2 ODIN Files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54803130&postcount=136 Once you Odin back you can use Towel root or Kingo root (links are posted above your post). Then install Supersu https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu&hl=en and run it, install Busybox https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en open and install it, then Safestrap http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=7216. (You should make a backup once Safestrap is installed before you flash any Roms). Once you're done you can pick a Rom for your Note 3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/development Now you ever use Odin? http://www.samsungodindownload.com/odin-tutorial/ (The site only shows flashing the All-In-One file so you know). Use all 4 Odin files, not the All-In-One when coming from Lollipop.

I am running Alliance 9.1 rom and I was searching for my Safestrap recovery. I didn't find it and so I tried busybox "reboot into recovery" script. Doing that made my phone go crazy "go to att and let the service tech" look at it. I can't boot into recovery as it gives me this error and I have to use ODIN to flash the BL file. Now I can't get into my phone because of a Pin. I think that the script from busy box is still running and if I can get passed my pin, I want to see if I can disable the script. My main issue is, can I use the aforementioned process to just start over? I was told I cannot use ODIN to flash to stock rom. I have already found out that I have tripped my knox counter. PLEASE HELP. THIS IS MY ONLY PHONE AND MY WIFE IS GOING TO KILL ME.
Thank you for your help.
So i went to flash [ROM] Looper_XB but i made a mistake and flashed 5.0.2 when i needed to flash 5.1.1..Now i have made mistakes in past and would usually flash stock firmware in odin to my phone but this time it is not working. i downloaded stock firmware from here > LINKTOSTOCK. I get a error in Odin. i can go into download mode and into TWRP. I dont know what my next step is.. yes i know how to use a search bar.....i thought maybe i could flash the correct 5.1.1 Looper rom onto my phone through TWRP but i cant get my phone mounted to laptop to where it will let me transfer any files that way.. i can view all files but once i go to transfer the file over the phone will basically disconnect...In need of some help here guys.
Also was searching around and saw something about using kies , which i downloaded and installed but my phone wont connect. I only get the samsung galaxy screen and TWRP and Download mode like i mentioned

As a last resort you can always download either Samsung Kies or Samsung Smart Switch software and restore your device with the original firmware. You will need your model and serial number. You can get your s/n by booting into download mode and then pressing the home button.
Sometimes Kies will not work on the first couple of tries but it eventually should. If it still doesn't then try Smart Switch.
Once you have restored your device you can start from scratch.
