Install zip from SD card not showing - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I went into Recovery and the install zip from SD card was not showing. My phone is rooted, but it never appeared as one of the choices. Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks

What Kernel are u running -- Stock ??
U need a Dev'd Kernel with CWM Recovery baked in.

I'm not sure. A friend rooted my phone earlier. Is there a way to tell from the phone?

U probably have Stock Recovery.
U need to flash an appropriate Kernel that has CWM.

There is a "Guide..." by TRusselo that is a Sticky Thread in this Forum that u probably should read.
I would suggest doing a lot of reading and understanding before u mess ur phone up.

Did you have repartition checked or unchecked? Needs to be unchecked when flashing kernels. If i remember correctly, i used cm10 to get to jb. All i had to do flash the ROM twice in recovery. First time was to get CWM 6 loaded, then the actual ROM flashed no issues, kernel included
It was unchecked.. and I was flashing semaphore kernel specifically because it would root my cappy.

If u r back on Stock KK4, then the KK4 Corn Kernel has CWM Recovery and u can get Root within that recovery as well. I recommend version 7.0A http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18233847

Any specific reason why I would flash version 7.0A instead of 7.01 <-- (What im going to flash, cause I couldn't find download for 7.0A) or newer versions like 7.06?
7.0A is just the baseline version...and really all u need if u r just gonna flash a custom rom..but any of the corn kernels will do.
Links are in the OP. (or should be ?? ----they r workin for me)

Alright, thanks. Nope, I see all of the other links except for version 7.0A
Ok, so I flashed corn kernel version 7.01.. everything worked fine.. but how do i get root access now?
There is an option in the cwm recovery...maybe under advanced options...don't remember exactly, but it is there.

Root using .Zip file in stock Recovery?

Is it possible? Ive Been reading some topics but most of them cant give me a straight answer. I could do a Three Button Recovery Whitout Flashing anything in Odin. Thanks

Help me! ASAP

Yesterday i had to rooting my tab and then i founded one trick that i think its a lot easier. Im using CF-Root, then i used to flash with odin. No problem appear after that, but the problem coming after i had to reboot my tab; some sound glitch occur on samsung bootanim, and the last big problem for me is, now i cant turn on my tab again it stuck at bootanim. I know how to fix that problem; just flashing back to stock rom. But, i dont want to do that because i have a ton of games and app who will be disappear if im going to flashing back to stock.
So, anyway that can fix my problem without back to stock? Can someone give me a link about stock or custom gb(2.3.3) kernel? Maybe it can solve my problem. Please someone. Help me

Do you have the exact rom version that you were running? Maybe someone has the Rom, and extracting the kernel is possible.

I repacked the JQ1 euro rom's kernel in a tar
http://goo.gl/Bpmcr
try flash that in Odin like when you did CF-root
Then boot to the stock recovery and do a wipe cache (not sure of stock recovery has that..?)
anyway, try and see.
Else you probably want a restock.
If eventually you want to restock, just follow my signature to Overcome links.

you may be out of option but to restock.
Using CF-root was always a hit and miss.
that is why I recommend Overcome method every time.

No. Dont do that.
Just flash overcome kernel using Odin.
Then use the cwm recovery ti flash overcome rom 4.1
Then it is s GB rom with root.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Yap. Thats what i want to do. So.. just for sure bcause i dont want to brick my tab.
1. Flash overcome kernel via odin
2. Flash overcome rom via cwm
3. Finish
That is right?

Do a backup with CWM. You can revert to stock ROM by restoring

Do not... For the love of whatever you call holy... Use CWM... Use TWRP or WCX recoveries

I think wcx is specifically meant for vivid. You can try that.
I have used both CWM and TWRP and have found both equally good

i have CWM, also have both zip files ICS stock Rom and also the one im currently using, can i just make a back up, and flash the ICS zip file?
I don't have any experience in flashing in HTC vivid. Search the forum before flashing or take help from someone who owns one and knows what he is doing.
I give below link of one from the forum

ClockworkMod compiled for the vivid has a good chance to destroy partitions... It was improperly compiled or just isn't compatable...

Bricked by downgrading. Help

Hi,
I'd recently tried out CM10 roms on my device. Thought I'd downgrade back to Gingerbread since I felt it to be more stable. I tried reflashing the original 2.3.4 gb via Odin. Now I'm having infinite boot loops. Did I miss anything? I believe this is because of the boot loader being screwed up. Is there an odin file which contains the radio/boot/etc so that I can flash them one by one instead of one single package that I find in other links / sites?
Kindly help.
TIA.
Power off, hold power+home, wipe data from stock recovery. Cm10.1's data causes gb to panic.
