ROM manager and Installing Darkys ROM

I have Samsung Galaxy s i9000 Froyo 2.2, Rooted with Z4root and lagfixed with OCLF. I have downloaded the Darkys ROM 9.2extreme Edition and also the Darkys ROM configurator from market. I have flashed the clockworkmod recovery by using ROM manager. And backed up the data by titanium backup (free version) . Now if I have to flash the Darkys rom from SD card using the ROM manager will I have a problem with recovery 2e? Or it is better to flash the Darkys ROM by Odin?.....Really confused and want to make decision...don't want a brick and data loss...

Either is good. Flash the CWM version using 'install ZIP from SD Card' in CWM (use the three button recovery to get there). The other option is to flash with ODIN using the 512 PIT and the ODIN version. The ODIN version requires first flashing with ODIN, the flashing again with the CWM version, but produes a 'cleaner' install.

Make sure you undo your lagfix first

Thanks guys

Yeah resurrection seems to be better for moving from the stock rom to darkys. I have decided to go for the cleaner Odin flashing. Can I flash clockworkmod recovery by using ROM manager? The official Darkys site has mentioned rom manager as an option to installing CMW in their prerequisites section. But in the custom rom installation guide they have given the steps to copy the update.zip file, enter the recovery mode by 3 button combo and then manually flash twice to get CMW. Which one is the better? ROM manager seems simpler for flashing CMW.....

If you flash Resurrection you have no need for ROM Manager as the ROM includes Clockwork Mod already.

OK if I flash darkys resurrection, then would I have to root with CF root to get recovery 2e?or I can skip that step? I think the resurrection tutorial at xda has not mentioned it.

Not yet. Just flashed the clockworkmod from the rom manager. And went straight for the back up current rom. But the rom doesn't back up and it still shows recovery 3e...

Is it because of the 3e recovery? Do I need to flash some kernel like speedmod or CF root to get recovery 2e?

[Q] clockwork and voodoo kernel issue

Hello.
So i've got a problem with my I9000.
I've upgraded it to froyo, official release, so i'm stuck with the 3e recovery.I recently flashed the voodoo lagfix kernel via Odin. I would like to get clockwork recovery to replace 3e, but I understand i have to flash it via Odin, too. My question is : Is clockwork's kernel going to replace voodoo? If so, how can i have them both?
Thanks a lot in advance.

if you upgrade offical froyo then u must first do a root..the root files can be find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108...download correct root for your firmwire phone...then flash it tru odin..when u done with that u must download a rom manager from market...and install it to get clockwork mode =)

I wouldn't follow the previous poster's advice.
If you're going to use cwm, why do you want stock firmware? Try flashing speedmod kernel to get cwm, which has built in root and lagfix accesable from recovery. Or just go to a custom fw like docrom kitchen.
Best procedure for going custom with the sgs is a single flash of speedmod w/ cwm from odin, and then flash anything else via cwm.

[Q] How can I root my I9000XXJVQ ?

HI, I put I9000XXJVQ 2.3.4 on my SGS by ODIN, it's not rooted, but I don't witch .RAR I can use to root it with ODIN to use TITANIUM backup, anybody can help me?
Or what is the best way : put a new firmware ? which one?

The best way to root, I think it is a flash Custom Kernel via Odin or CF-Root

Thanks, I tried to Root by ODIN but it's always unsuccessfull. Which Kernel do you recommend ? It's seems there are some problem with JVR kernel...

lol, if you going to root it from Custom kernel, you need to download SuperUser.apk and BusyBox . It gives you only permissions .
When I was on JVQ I using a continuum

What is a continuum ? Can I use CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVR-v4.1-CWM3RFS.zip to root with ODIN after loading Superuser and busybox ?

Yes, you can use it
I always flashed a custom .tar kernel's like SpeedMod or Galaxian.
Then I install from Market a SuperUser and BusyBox and it was all what i doing

[Q] cwm not installing with recovery 3e

Ok so i just rooted my sgs with superoneclick and im trying to install cwm recovery but when it reboots its starts in my normal recovery (3e) and fails during install. Can someone guide me in the right direction?This is what it says:
installing package
Finding update package
Verifying update package
E:failed to verify whole file signature
E:signature verification failed
I have tried over a wifi connection and 3g but both to no avail.
Model GT I9000M
Firmware 2.3.3
Baseband I9000UGKG3
Kernel 2.6.35.7-I9000UGKG3

Build Gingerbread.GKG3
PS I have no problem flashing using odin and starting from scratch. I just want my phone to run to the best of its ability. So please reccomend the best build, rom, theme and apps to have too.
Thanks in advance to all responses.

well 3e recovery can't flash unsigned zips from recovery so try flashing another kernel via odin that has support for i9000m

Any ideas on the best kernel to flash that supports i9000m?

Since you know how to flash. Go to this link to download and flash JVT pda, kg3 modem and csc with 512pit in odin. It wont bootloop and then you can flash any jvt kernel as pda. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881

I am having the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000.
Will the solution you have posted work for me too?

Yes. You can flash any kernel for gt-i9000 you want via odin. But make sure you flash correct version for your firmware or it will give you bootloop

Many thanks! Going to try this now. Been wanting 4.0.1 on my SGS for ages.

Hello.
I'm having almost the same problem.
I can use the usb un the phone.
I have 3e recovery installed and i woul like to instal clockwork mode.
There's a different way to flash clockwork mode?
I've tried from RomManager but the signature is verified and doesn't work.
Thank you in advance.

Yes, it should be flashed using Odin3, together with a kernel, will work better than ROM manger, so go here and follow the instructions.

[Q] Rooted GT-I9000M but can't flash CWM

Hi there, I rooted my GT-I9000M on KG3 FW using this FW http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23560333&postcount=498 , downloaded Superuser and busybox, downloaded ROM Manager, flashed CWM, but when I'm trying to install custom roms, it boots up on Android System Recovery 3e instead of CWM Recovery. Did I missed something or I need to do something else to make it work ?

I've got the exact same problem.
Flashed stock kg3 pda,phone,csc
Flashed rooted kg3 (pda only in odin)
Installed superuser and busybox which seem to work correctly
installed rom manager and download cmw recovery.
Tried rebooting in cmw recovery and it does not work...

I don't think the cwm is the same...I believe that is just the simplest root directory possible, nothing more. Try flashing jvt or jw5 in pda and root that after with appropriate root kernel. Then you will have no issues. Besides there are no custom roms for kg3 anyway.

This is a good guide by All Gamer. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379650

I already saw that guide, but the JVP ROM is not available anymore. I googled it and I can't find it !

Guys just flash jw5 under pda and use the kg3 modem and csc. Then flash semaphore 2.7.4. tar. Problem solved. I have a bell Canada phone myself and this setup works great. Then you can flash ics or whatever in cwm. If you don't like ics, I recommend Dmore3.3 for jw5.

Is there any rooted kernel out there which I could use with stock kg3 rom and modem without losing anything at all?
So I could use cmw recovery for a nandroid backup of my phone?
thanks

I just did what vanisleryan said, but I still got the Android System Recovery 3e not the CWM Recovery. I'm totally lost now ...

Bud I'm running a custom rom installed through cwm and the instructions I gave are what I'm running right now. If you're rooted with the semaphore 2.7.4 kernel than you have cwm. Not sure what you did wrong? Go and install the cwm apk I think it's available in the chainfire thread.

OK, I figured how to get to CWM. When I'm trying to install the MIUI ROM, I got bootloops. Did I do something wrong or it's just an imcompatible ROM ?

Not sure but I think you might just need to pull the battery when it boot loops and go back into cwm with 3 button combo, install again and should complete install. It probably tells you installation instructions on thread. Man if you don't end up like miui then try Dmore3.3... It's rock solid and resembles ics but runs on gb.

I successfully installed MIUI and I love it. The only thing annoying is that it's showing numbers instead of my carrier name.

Maybe you need to install a different modem, where in the world do you live?
