im trying to install ics on my phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613842, i follow all the step given but when trying to install it says "E: failed to verify whole-file signature" please help me..
That isn't root problem.
Why don't you edit the title, like fail to flash xxx rom.
Now, what model is your tab, running what version of Android, us it stock condition, never rooted and you tried to use stock recovery instead of CWM recovery.
You need to read a lot of things before jumping in like that.

I am trying to install lagfix on froyo and force it. When I go into flash mode and apply the aip file i get the error message
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted
Can anyone suggest any ideas
This is when trying to root the phone
BTW it worked fine on JM1
Any one help me???? Please
Samsung uses a different signature verification for froyo, so things that are intended for android 2.1 no longer work, i suggest the oneclick lag fix, it is available in the android market for free
Thats where I got if from, the market, and having this issue
you have to manually root the phone, and the process is different for 2.2
If you're running JPK, the root method is here
Thread moved to Q&A section
Will the one click root for Froyo work with the just released version of Froyo (IE Feb 24)?
The one click rooting tool I mean can be found here.

The old one for Eclair doesn't work anymore and gives an e certificate error.

it should work fine. just follow the instructions. i didnt see any real changes to the rooting method that was used in JI6....
just go with a custom rom, they will be faster than stock and without the ATT bloat anyway...and its rooted for you
I too am unable to root the O/S after updating to Official FroYo...
Following all procedures available to root leads to the following error -
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Looking for a way around this... Other than having to flash back to Eclair... I kind of want to give the Official Froyo a run.
Any ideas?

G'day Guys,
This is actually my first time posting. I'll also point out that while I am quite technical minded & have been working in IT for a few years.. I haven't yet upgraded to a custom ROM - and as such I'm having issues
Basically, i've got a Froyo GT-I9000 with a build of DTJP5 and recovery console 3e
I've found Darky's mod to be pretty good and i'm wanting to upgrade to it, upon suggestion by the thread for v9.4? i installed Clockwork Mod & ran through the install for that, however now I'm at the part when I'm trying to apply the update.zip and i get the dreaded 3e "Verification Failed" error.
Could anyone help me out and possibly throw me in the right direction?. I'm lost..
To my knowledge, you will keep on getting the "Verification Failed" error. You need to root your phone (because its froyo, on eclair you could simply go and start using the update.zip for clockwork recovery).
Read this thread. Read the instructions, download the required file and get SU (or root) on your phone and then use the custom ROM you had in mind. I though suspect, you will need to flash your original firmware again. Or you could simply use any stock ROM you can lay your hands on.

Good luck mate.
Phone is already rooted using z4Root permanent.
Yea i've had a look at that article a few times, couldn't find a kernal version close enough to mine. Also when going through the ODIN method using the correct kernal from Z4, i just kept getting the error "Check files!"
i love my new note!!!
but damb is this rooting and custom roms a big headache at times!
i just rooted my note using zergrush's newest version.
i cant seem to get rocket rom working.
i have rom manager and try to install from sd card.
all goes good then i get this weird "failed to verify whole-file signature"
i have reading for about 7 hours now. i need help desperately!
You need to make sure the kernel you're running is from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784 to get ClockWork Mod Recovery, rooting alone isn't enough. You will then get the CWM App (a sort custom rom manager) then you can install your ROMs.
i did step 1.2 of the second post of that thread
the zerg method using this firmware CF-Root-SGN_XX_AUT_KKA-v5.0-CWM5.zip
my note has KKA kernal
You must use 'cwm' app. Not rom manager.

I went crazy. Lol
So what i did was use odin mobile and just downloaded the kernal provided by the link in the odin mobile.
After that i did get the cw app

So my wife got a good deal on some Galaxy Tabs at her work, and being so familiar with rooting and installing custom ROMs with my Galaxy S2, I jumped right in. Stupid mistake #1. I didn't realize there were so many different versions (The S2 is international, so 99% are all I9100, and mine being I9100M, there was no concern about using I9100 firmware - apparently this was not true of the P1000 and P1000M as I've come to learn), and just followed the first comprehensive guide I found to upgrade from 2.2 froyo to 2.3.3 gingerbread, so that I could go to CM9 or CM10. I tried to flash XWJK8 (and one of the kids ran by and bumped out the USB cable!) and it would only power on to the emergency download mode. I somehow managed to get Froyo back on and working by flashing the Euro flash package (Flashing the PIT and XWJJ4), then flashing OXAJK5. I was able to boot up and was running Froyo again.
Undeterred by the set back, I tried again for Gingerbread (again, not realizing that there were GSM-only ROMs that I shouldn't have been using). I followed a guide by Chainfire (I think) that involved flashing XXJQ1, a new bootloader, and a dbdata file in PDA then finished up by flashing the CF Root OXA-JQ1 kernel. I went into CWM and did a factory reset, clear cache, etc... but it wouldn't boot past the Samsung logo. About this time, I learned about the GSM/CDMA thing, and realized I went wrong. So I set out to try and figure it out for CDMA. Unfortunately, everything refers to this Overcome guide, but the page would not load, so I figured that with CWM working then I may as well try for CM9. It failed (assert errors), so I decided to try for the stock Bell Gingerbread ROM (P1000MUGKF6). It flashes successfully, but after flashing - I get the following errors on boot up:
-- Updating filesystem...
E: failed to mount /dbdata (Invalid argument)
E: discard_filesystem_for_rfs: Can't mount /dbdata
-- Wiping cache...
Formatting /cache...
Cache wipe failed.
-- Applying Multi-CSC....
Installing Multi-CSC

So just for giggles, I tried a factory reset with the following results:
-- Wiping data...

E: format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10
Formatting /cache...
Data wipe complete.

I tried doing the Euro flash again (as it got everything working again last time), and it runs successfully but still won't boot up. So I flashed the Gingerbread firmware for Bell again (P1000MUGKF6), and it still won't boot at this point, just hangs at the Samsung logo. Long story short, I've made a mess of things, and I am thinking that the more I try and fix this myself, the more I'm messing things up. I'm praying that someone here is able to help me fix this mess, otherwise I am at the point of throwing in the towel and letting this thing end up as a brick, as if no one on XDA knows how to fix this, I don't think anyone will know how.
Thanks for reading this novel, I can't tell you how much I would appreciate some assistance!
Use overcome method.
Follow my signature.
Download the GB stock safe and the PDF guide
Jump to page 7.
P1000 and P1000M is identical except for the radio.
But they both are gsm.
If you had flashed wrong ROM you would have had a brick.
You just haven't been flashing correctly.

I just saw your reply on a different post, and gave it a try. I can't thank you enough! It worked perfectly. After I flashed the Stock Safe I was able to get it to boot up no problem, so I went on to do the kernel, and then flash the Overcome ROM from there (which was successful), but now it's been sitting on the Overcome ROM boot screen for the last several minutes, starting to think it's not going to boot... My end goal was to get CM9 installed on it, so even if Overcome ROM won't boot, am I safe at this point to try flashing CM9, or should I get Overcome ROM working first?
Also if anyone happens to know if I need to download the p1c (cdma) version of CM9 (I'm assuming based on your reply that I don't, and the p1 (gsm) version of CM9 should work, but I just want to be safe).
Thanks again for your help, at least I got things working at one point, and am confident I can get back to that point if things go south again.
So I went with my gut, flashed CM9 for the P1000 (non-CDMA) and it works like a charm. Again, can't thank you for all your help! I can't tell you how much time and grief you saved me from!!
Glad it works out.
In the future, you don't need to flash the overcome ROM.
Only overcome kernel is needed o use its cwm recovery.
The stock safe is needed to give you a clean stock baseline that works with overcome kernel.
the ultimate goal is just to have cwm recovery.

Thanks again for the help, she had bought 2 - 1 Bell and 1 Rogers Galaxy Tab. The Bell one was the one I was working on when I posted this, after finishing it (in total close to 12-14 hours of straight working on it and looking stuff up) I was able to get the Rogers one done in less than 20 minutes haha! :highfive:
