Rooting Error - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Heya,
I have installed CWM on my Phone but it showing me just a few options like format SD card, install update from SD card. but it doesnt show me "Install from SD card".
What should i do? Can I try rename any rom to update.zip then install it?
I got Samsung Galaxy S I9000
Thanks

You need other kernel. What version pda do you have ? Dont need rename the rom. You need install a kernel such as semaphore.

Yes of course. You can rename it to update.zip and put it on the internal (!!) sdcard. This should be the root directory when using original "My Files" app from samsung.

[Q] MilkyS MOD 1.2 Patch problem

Hi, I have MilkyS MOD on my Galaxy S, and I have downloaded the CWM 1.2 patch.
I copied the ZIP file to my SD card, turned off the phone and rebooted into CWM mode.
I chose to install ZIP from SD card but it wasn't there.
Should I have opened it up first or something?
PS: I can't ask this in the MilkyS MOD thread.
Found it.
The SD card contents were inside an "External SD Card" folder.
It went on fine, no probs.

[Q] cant root my SGSA XXLQB

so i have decided to root my SGSA but when i go into recovery mod it doesnt show any root.zip even if i have already copied it what to do??
You copied the zip file to your ext sd card? Also make sure you don't put it in any folder. Must be in the root of sd card.

As I wroted to you in some other thread, repartition your external SD card. Backup it first ofcourse!

2) from the market i bought rom manager premium 5.5.2.3
3)installed clockworkmod 3.2.0.0
4)holded vol up + home button + power on and booted in clockworkmod mode
5) i looked for the cooked rom i put on the external sd drive....
.....BUT when i look for it the phone doesnt see the external sd so im stuck here i cant load the cooked rom cause i cant see the external sd,perhaps i dont follow all the steps?????
please give me some help here im stuck since 4 days now!
P.S: the sd card works fine,im sure about it and the firmware version of the phone is 2.2.1 file is I9000XXJVE

Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
thanks guys but i dont follow your help!
i downloaded aroma.zip installed in the internal memory of the phone launched it from the recovery menu but this sw is all mess up and i cant work with it!
i would like to know if i can install cooked rom from the internal memory of the phone,i guess not cause if i do so the phone will just hang up cause i can share the rom and the installation space right?
since im quite sure i cant use the internal memory of the phone i can only use the external sd card to install the cooked rom but it looks like u are telling me that i have no hopes to use the external sd card to install the rom so....what am i supposed to do?i cant use the internal memory,i cant use the external sd card so....what am i supposed to use???????????????????????????
thanks again!
I am not even sure why you made the assumption that you can't use the internal memory in the first place. The internal SD as it is sometimes referred to is separate from the OS. Case in point, factory restoring your phone will not wipe your internal memory.
So just use the internal memory.

[Q] Cant see Internal storage card in recovery

Hi guys.
I want to flash the GT-N7000 of a friend of mine but here 's the thing.
I got all i need (raw kernel, philz cwm, rom, gapps etc)
when i boot into stock recovery i can select install from external storage. That gives me the message: failed to mount.
We looked into the phone and tadaa there was no SD Card.
My question is: is it possible to mount / install zip files from internal card? I can access the card trough USB cabel on my pc. I copied all the zip files there but i cant acces it trough the stock samsung recovery.
I hope u guys can help
