Installing Darky's / Axura ROM

Hey everyone, I'm trying to play with a couple ROMS, starting with the Darky 7.7 ROM from stock Froyo 2.2 on a Galaxy S i9000.
I've done the following:
1) Rooted the phone using SuperOneClick (proven to be rooted with ROM Manager).
2) Transfered the Darkys ROM.zip to the internal SD Card
3) Downloaded and copied ClockworkMod from the original post (file is update.zip) and transferred this to my internal SD Card
4) Gone into ROM Manager, selected Flash ClockWorkMod Recovery
5) Select Install ROM from SD card
6) Selected Darkys_V7.7_Gingerbread_.....zip
7) Prompted with Backup Existing, or Wipe Data and Cache. I chose Wipe. It tells me I will be brought into recovery to continue.
8) Chose apply sdcard:update.zip
Receive the following error:
Install default apk-files, finished
--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifiying update package...
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Where have I gone wrong? Any help is appreciated

Go to recovery mode (power off then vol up+home+power). If you're already using clockworkmod, then select install zip from sd card. If you're not using cwm yet, select install update.zip to give you cwm then choose install zip in sdcard.

You need to install a kernel that has 2e recovery, this version doesn't verify file signatures, or go back to 2.1.

I see now when I enter recovery mode at the top it says Android Recovery 3e. I'm assuming that should say Clockworkmod Recovery.
It is the next step I'm stumped with
What is an example of a kernel that runs 2e? Flashing is done through ODIN correct? Can you help me figure out how to flash in ODIN, or where I can find a 2e kernel for my i9000?

Grab the latest speed mod kernel from hardcore in the dev section, flash that via odin and it will be 2e recovery. Then follow darkys instructions and flash his rom. After his rom is on depending on where you are you might have to flash your original stock modem but only do that if your phone doesn't register on your network.

I am having difficulties flashing via ODIN. Can you help me find some help, perhaps an ODIN guide of some kind?
I have found a UGJH2 kernel that should be 2e recovery, now I just need to learn to flash it.

ODIN is a program that flashes individual kernels, CSC's, modems and other bits to your phone. It's one of the methods used to flash ROMs also. If you search the forums (or even Google) you should be able to get everything together. I recommend searching for ODIN, the 512 pit file, and then following the instructions below to re-root your phone.

Hey Priyana, I got the same problem.
I can boot to download mod but cant boot recovery mod, and my device is also not recognized when connected to PC
Any suggestion?

Usually just have to keep trying for Odin to detect the device.
Failing that you need a fresh pc.

thankls again again for spending time to answear my problem
also in what state should my device be when to plug it etc ty again

follow my signature go get the GB-stock-safe-v5 and also the overcome guide.
Follow the page 7 instruction on how to use Odin.
The Odin needs to be version 1.7, like the one included in GB-stock-safe-v5
When driver is good, Odin detects your tab when it is in Download mode, and you can flash the GB-stock-safe-v5

I had almost same issue when I was trying to revert back from slimbeans as the JB installation changed the partitions on my phone memory. I had to restore stock via odin using a PIT file for repartitioning the memory to its original.
I think the same should help you.

[Q] Looking for Odin Flashable ICS/JB

Hi everyone.
As written in the title, is there Odin Flashable ICS/JB rom?
Or is there any method to make one?
My cappy hit by EU bug.
I tried using the workaround.
I now managed to flashed ficeto base rom (DarkyROM 10.1) by using Odin.
But I failed to flash any other rom due to android recovery system 3e popped message saying 'signature verification failed'.
I also failed to find any custom recovery suitable for the rom.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advanced!!

No, you can't flash those like that because they use a non stock partition layout. You should be able to flash any Samsung based kernel appropriate for your version of android, and that will give you CWM.

I failed to flash any rom or any theme zip with android system recovery 3e.
It shows " E:Short write of /tmp/sideload/package.zip (No space left on device) ".

Here comes the obvious question.. Is there enough free space on your cell? (Make sure there is..)
You should be able to flash a custom kernel (with cwm) through Odin 1.85 and from there, flash the ROM that you want.

Nope, he says he has 3e recovery meaning you can't flash anything... Odin a kernel and it will give you CWM.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy tab GT-p1000 jelly bean

Hi!
I try to get upgrade my tab to Android Jelly Bean, but I find this a bit difficult.
I rooted my device with SuperOneClick and it worked, but when I try to instal the ROM I get this message: signature verification failed.
Have been searching around the internet, but I'm not very good at this.
Basically I need someone to explain what to do in a simple matter :fingers-crossed:
Would appreciate if you could help me!

you can't flash custom ROM using stock recovery. that is for Samsung signed updates only.
Follow my signature for overcome method.
Please note this: don't need to follow all the way to flash Overcome ROM.
You only want to get to a baseline stock rom (GB-stock-safe-v5).
The you flash overcome kernel, which gives you CWM recovery.
With that, you flash the jelly bean according to the custom ROM instruction.

Regarding the mobile networks, do you get signal at all? Check that your APN settings are entered correctly & you're using the right modem.
As mentioned, be sure you're on the right gapps for your build if you're using an aosp rom.

Recently i'm reflash to GB stock which is the version "Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread [XWJQ8]". But after that,I did a factory reset.
Than I flashed the original Gingerbread ROM. Odin didn't give me any error message, but after the tab rebooted I got stucked in a "recovery screen" with the following message in red:
E: Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
E: install-application-for-customer: Can't mount /data
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
There was an option for format in this recovery screen, but I was unable to select it. The volume up/down keys worked to navigate in the options, but the power button didn't make the selection.
I force the tab to shut down keep pressing the power button. Started it again and the same screen showed up.
Could you help me, which part i was fail because of this?

Try the home button as OK button in stock recovery.
Edit:
BTW, which ROM did you come from? If you were from anything that is AOSP, likely you have MTD partition.
You need a full restock with pit file and "repartition" checked in Odin to get back to BML partition that stock ROM requires.
If your ROM file doesn't have it, you better use Overcome method and its GB-stock-safe-v5 that has it.
