Can't install CWM - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've looked all around and couldn't find anything about this problem for this device. I rooted the tablet using the z4 root program. Next I installed CWM flashed it to the tablet. Afterwards, I pressed reboot in recovery, a few seconds later I get the error message in the stock Samsung recovery that says something along the lines of "failed to verify whole-file signature" Can someone direct me in the right direction where I'll be able to install this recovery please?

Use overcome method. The link is in my signature.

[Q] Z4root but, can't seem to flash cm#24...

Hey everyone, I am new to all this but like the rest of you, I wanted my phone to function better. I did the z4root, then I downloaded rom manager premium and i installed super user elite. I have also put astro file manager and androzip file, but when I download cm#24 from the download rom on rom manager and then select flash clockworkmod recovery it pops up a screen that says comfirm phone model HTC Hero (cdma). I select this, It tells me successfully flashed clockwork recovery then I press ok. but nothing happens after that. Please help... What am I doing wrong???
Thanks
Power off phone, hold home then power(end). This is clockwork that you'll be in. Then follow rom install instructions to flash.

Turn off signature verification in recovery. I think it's under advanced.

Can't Flash Roms or Get Into Clockword Recovery

My Tab is rooted and it says I have the correct recovery, yet I can't flash roms/backup current roms/get into Clockwork recovery. Everytime I try to flash something it gets aborted but before that it says Installing MICS failed or something similar. I'm familiar with flashing roms yet I don't know what's going on.

First, download ROM Manager and reflash clockwork mod.

is you TAB GSM or CDMA? if you TAB is GSM you should use this tutorial . The Kernel it has already the CWM recovery, also will convert your system to Ext4 ..... Did you applied the patch from here . I believe you have a protected bootloader....
Thanks for the info. I'm not by a pc but it seems I don't need the secondary link, it seems I don't need the patch because it already is patched. And I have a gsm tab.

I just wanted to chime in to say that I'm having this problem too. I've rooted using the the proper steps and installed tom manager and downloaded the lastest cwm. I tell it to reboot and I get the aborted, signature cannot be verified blah blah.
I tried everything step over and over again and I always get that error so I cannot get into cwm.
Like the OP I have a t849 tmobile galaxy tab.
Any ideas?
EDIT: I figured it out
OK so this may sound stupid but when I first flashed the recovery rom using the adb push method for the recovery image and tmobile_zImage I did not have a micro-sd card because the SGT-849 has 16GB of built in memory. I just tried it again but this time I popped in a microsd and used adb to push the recovery flash files, ran recovery, rebooted, ran ROM Manager and told it to boot into recovery and ClockWorkRecovery Mod worked
So if you havent used the method if implementing an ADB bridge to push the tmobile flash files you need to do that WITH a microSD apparently.
My boot screen changed from the boring Samsung Logo to a Galaxy Tab + Samsung Logo. Which boot logo do you have?

I dont have knowledge in adb because I'm never on a pc, but I ordered a 32gb sd card so i'll see what happens.

If you load rom manager and then flash clockwork mod recovery, why are you selecting install updates? It should already be there. I assume you rooted. Once I flash, I dont install updates unless it is to reapply the 3 button fix. Have you tried just installing another rom from SD card if you can get into recovery?

[Q] (Q) Safestrap and CWM

I have Safestrap downloaded, but I was wondering about CWM. Is safestrap the same thing, or would I need to use CWM in custom ROMS? I've looked but couldn't pull anything up. Just wanna know what the safest rout would be.
Safestrap is for phones with locked bootloaders since we have unlocked bootloaders now Safestrap is no longer needed which is why CMW should be the route you take CMW also saves sapace by only have one rom loaded on your internal sd instead of having a stock rom and a custom rom like safestrap did.
So it seems I am gonna download cwm then. Thank you :3

You need to be using an older CWM.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'you did that'. You did what? Use an older CWM? Did it install the zip properly? You need to be more specific. The 8 failed boot will not work without the stock recovery installed. If you just want stock back, use an old recovery to flash the stock ROM zip I have linked in item A15 in my NC Tips thread linked in my signature.

You said the stock recovery zip failed when you tried to flash with an error about the number of arguments. I suggested that you use an older CWM. You said you tried that. But you did not say if it installed then without the error message. And you do not describe what it does when you try the 8 failed boot procedure. And did the stock ROM install complete successfully?
What are your symptoms? What does it boot to?
