Hello there,
Where to start. Ok, I'm not a techy person (so pls dont reply with abreaviations) but I'm half capable, so I decided to upgrade my galaxy s to the x-bean rom.
I flashed my phone using odin to the standard XXJW4 upgrade, rooted it, and transfered the x-bean 3.0 zip and the fix file to the sdcard. Wiped date/factory reset as needed, then when I went to install zip from sdcard the following error message occurs:
E:Error in /sdcard/x-bean 3.0.zip
(status 0)
installation aborted
I'm now using semaphore cwm recovery v6.0.1.3 which i got from a fix I tried.
I've hunted through youtube vids, the recovery section, and the threads for hours!! I've downloaded and tried flashing every file his man and his dog have posted up as fix but nothing is working, all I get is boot loop and this error.
Every time I try upload anything from odin the download stops shortly after it starts and disconnects from the phone. As i can still access recovery and download option tho, does anyone else have a suggedtion which its having a problem accessing the sdcard?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as phone is useless right now
managed to find a file that resolved it all, just incase anyone else has same problem in future

Hello All,
I recently upgraded my GT-I9000 to CWM10 JellyBean 4.1.2 a week ago and all was fine until last night when I was trying to follow one of the youtube videos to increase the internal memory on my phone. I tried it on my phone and for some reason my phone was stuck in the CWM recovery mode. When I rebooted, the phone was going back into recovery mode. I was panicking and in that rush, I tried doing a reset, clear data, clear cache, dalvik and all other stuff on the recovery mode menu. When nothing worked, I tried re-flashing the JB 4.1.2 from recovery mode. This flashing was erroring after 30% and was returning into recovery mode again. I also tried to use odin to flash the Android 2.3 which didn't work and now it goes into the CWM Recovery v3.0.0.5
Could someone please let me know how to get my phone back to work.
I would be really thankful to you all.
Thanks
First of all you have posted in the wrong section. This is only for development.
To get back the recovery, flash http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufe....1_Jelly_Helly_i9000_CFS_BLN_CMC_20121101.tar in Odin from computer and then flash the Hellybean zip again from the phone.
That is what you should do.
PS: Download the Hellybean zip again. The one that you have now might be corrupted. You need to go into Download mode with 3 Button Combo to use Odin.

Apologies for posting in the wrong section. Could the mod's please move this thread to the correct section please.
Thanks Trak-X the first half of your adivse worked for me (the ODIN bit) and I am now able to get into CWM recovery. I tried reflashing the Hellybean zip but it kept erroring at 10%. Error message is shown below
Installing HellyBean
GSM instllation
assert failed: run_program("/tmp/udater.sh")==0
I also downloaded a new Hellybean zip and tried reflashing with no luck and same error message. Pls advise on how I can go further now. I have a 2.3.6 rom downloaded, shall I flash this first to see if it works and if it does, I can flash Hellybean later.
Fixed!!!

I installed the google apps file and for some reason the phone booted properly this time. Don't know how gapps installation fixed this issue.
I hope someone can help me.
I cannot enter in recovery. Just in Download mode. But my PC doesn't recognise my phone so I can't flash in Odin.
Don't know what to do!?
Hi everybody.
In the past I already flashed custom ROM to routers, so I thought I had the skill to undergo the path of flashing ROM to a phone.
Wrong.
I have countless tabs opened tried to solve my stucked phone, and my PC is running out of memory; and I'm running out of hope.
I own a S Plus GT-i9001.
I wanted to get rid of all the bloatware present in the phone, so I gained root privileges.
Like explained here. It worked perfectly.
Since deleting all the unnecessary apps didn't look working, I thought "well, it is a rainy day, you had this device for a while, why don't you flash some ROM?"
So,
1. I followed this guide, but, needless to say, Rom Manager was not fulfilling to its duty. Indeed I backuped everything I needed, but the stock rom
2. I followed then this guide, point 3, to install ClockworkMod Recovery directly. Before, everytime I tried to enter the recovery menu, I was bounced to the original recovery menu, because ROM manager did not succeed.
With this guide, I managed to boot into ClockworkMod Recovery.
I then started backing up the ROM to the external SD, and it seemed working.
It was popping out with a message "E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command", but since all the operations went successful, I did not care much (fail, I suppose)
3. I tried to boot back into the phone, before installing the new ROM, just to double check I saved everything, and then the drama began. I was just continuously bounced back at CWM Recovery menu, no way to get in the phone.
I tried anyway to install the AOSP 4.0.4. and all the steps went successful, but still nothing, I would always reboot automatically into CWM Recovery.
4. I tried restore from backup in external SD, it ran successfully, but still couldn't load the phone
5. I then googled into the "E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command" error, so I ended up somewhere that they were advising to flash FeaCore Phoenix Recovery tool. Indeed it did not display anymore such an error
6. I tried again with he AOSP 4.0.4 ROM, but it showed then the following error
Code:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "thunderc" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "thunderc"
so I ended up here and changed the zip accordingly.
7. I also tried this instructions here to perform the most ultimate massive wiping.
8. I installed the AOSP 4.0.4, and the update-Gapps-ICS-20712.zip, it worked, no errors.
Still, it reboots into the recovery menu.
I can't get out of this damned recovery menu, it is crazy! I have used so many recovery tools in PCs, you usually are able to leave them, maybe not able to restore the OS, but you never get stuck into a circle of hell like this!
Please, does anyone has some advice for me? I don't want to waste a 6-months old device
thank you!
You should reflash CWM with odin like this then try flashing a rom again.
If that doesn't work flash a stock frimware through Odin also with the AriesVE.ops file active.
All guides tell you to put the "recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-ariesve.tar.md5" or the stock firmware file as "one package". Doing that results into large file errors or odin getting stuck on "downloading..."
Putting the file under phone got my phone back to life, after softbricking it by using CWM 6 thouch.

man, you saved my life!
you and the powerful, mighty Odin, god of the Valhalla!
oh, it feels so awesome!
but since I never learn (that was enough of a message to tell me to stop messing around)...
how do I install the ROM I'd like, go through the same process (my phone is now as as when I bought it) or can I use somehow Odin?

I realised that, since I flashed the recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-ariesve.tar you provided, if I would boot in recovery mode, it would be still there.
and it is.
but still it is showing the error
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command and, needless to say, it is not loading the ROM correctly, it stucked again
I don't get which part am I doing wrong!

Well, I sorted it out (absolutely, in a mysterious way!!! )
I downloaded the recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-ancora.tar.md5 from here, and I followed again your instructions for flashing it with Odino (rigorously NOT ticking one package).
When rebooted, I had the AOSP 4.0.4 Stock, shiny and sparkling!
without even entering the recovery menu and reinstalling!
but I guess I will need to do a clean install again, now that seems that CWM 6 is digested by my phone
I have a samsung galaxy pop/mini S5570 running Gingerbread OS....i tried to flash a custom rom Cm10 from yayagaire blog by copying the file to the sd card and when i put the phone in recovery mode and cleared the data and cache and clicked "install from sd card" it came installation aborted. I thought there is something wrong with the downloaded file and tried to put cm7 which i downloaded from BBQ cyanogen and when i tried to install it, it said installation aborted for the first time and when i tried the second time, it said installation complete and when i rebooted the phone it freezed with the word ANDROID on the screen and nothing happens. I tried the Odin multi downloader to revert back to gingerbread. but when i put the phone in downloading mode and connect it, odin doesn't detect the phone at all. What am i to do?

You would get more answer if you post in the device specific thread. I am moving this to Galaxy Mini Q&A thread. Also, please only 1 bump per day ... and use a better title.
Regards,
While flashing rom make sure u wipe data wipe cache and wipe dalvik cahche and then flash the rom
And your problem about odin is try reinstalling samsung usb drivers to get rid of issue
Hi,
I've downloaded Ripper ROM V17 from the i9305 part of the forum and copied it to my SD card. I have done a clean factory reset and cleared the cache before install.
In Android System Recovery <3e> when trying to install the .zip file, the phone can find and open the file but hangs on verification. The following message is displayed.
E:signature verification failed
A search has turned up one similar problem but nothing the same and nothing that can help me resolve this. Please can someone offer some guidance or ideas as to what I could try?
Many thanks.
If its any help the phone is the i9305 LTE running on the UK EE network

You can disable signature verification in the recovery menu somewhere. Can't quite remember where it is
So I posted a help thing about EFS a while back and didnt get to much help with that but i managed to figure things out. Now however
ive got myself into another predicament i cant seem to get out of.
So, from the start, i have a galaxy s3 (GT i-9305T) it was rooted, i still had the stock rom, but was running the beoffla kernal.
The idea was to download and install "JustArchi I9300XXUGML2 stock, deodexed and all the rest" then start finding
some nice themes. Ive got philz_touch_6.07.9-i9305.tar installed for my recovery.
This is where the trouble starts...
So first off i wipe the cache and the davik cache, go to install the rom then i get this: (ill go from installing update)
assert failed: write_raw_image (" /tmp/boot.img" , " /dev/block/mmcblk0p5" )
E: Error in /storage/sdcard1/Just archi........zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
Now i looked up a whole heap of pages to see if i could sort it out myself and i tried a few different things,
none of which have prevailed. First i tried to reflash an insecure boot image then try again, nup. I tried to
flash back to stock recovery and re format (No errors) then back to custom. Mounted /data and /system
and re formatted which worked with no error, still same error when flashing rom though. Also tried flashing
with different custom recovery, no luck there either.
There were a few other things i tried but i cant really remember what i did because
this has been a problem for a while now. Some of the pages i looked over for
information were:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/android-hacks-help/26658-assert-failed-write_raw_image-tmp-boot-img.html
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045887
And this is the one im on at the moment, im currently downloading a stock rom from sammobile to try flash.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help-i9305/i9305t-10-2-upgrade-boot-stops-unable-t2406422
"UPDATE"
Finished downloading the stock rom, tried to install with philz recovery and got this:
Installing: /storage/sdcard1/I9305TDVBME2_I9305TTELBME1_TEL (STOCK).zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package....

And thats it, no kind of specific error codes or anything.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out,
really stuck on this one.

Hi.
If you downloaded the stock ROM from sammy mobile are these not meant to be installed via Odin?
There are a few post if you search for some of the pre rooted stock ROMs that you can flash with odin.
I would start from there.

The roms i downloaded from samsmobile were in .zip files, which im pretty
sure has to be flashed with one of the custom recoveries.
Thanks though
at first seems you tried to flash rom designed for i9300
then, you downloaded an ODIN image and you have to flash it by ODIN, no way you'd flash it over any recovery
to be more specific:
unzip the file I9305TDVBME2_I9305TTELBME1_TEL (STOCK).zip you downloaded, you should get a huge file with extension of .md5 or .tar
read in the forums how to use ODIN to flash firmware

and am going to check things out tommorrow.
