Hi there,
i was trying to flash my samsung galaxy s and put darky's on it but for some reason i can't.
The recovery screen that pops op says recovery 3e (and every tutorial i found said 2e),
i try to "apply sdcard:update.zip
(i downloaded the update file from the darky roms thread)
and i get the error: failed to verify whole-file signature
signature verification failed, installation aborted.
i've got a samsung galaxy I9000XWJPA.
I've flashed the phone using z4root.
Then i've checked with terminal emulator that it's rooted.
I think that there's a problem with clockwork, or that i just didn't install that correctly, so i'm kinda stuck at the moment :s
could someone please help me?
First of all you should get the busybox file and flash it. Then copy the update.zip into the internal sd card and copy the darky rom too.
Before doing this i would restore it to factory settings. Dont root it with z4root, the busybox roots it and it allows you to open the update.zip
Try what i said and it should work.

You are on Android 2.2 which has the 3e recovery. 3e recovery doesn't allow using unsigned .zip files. You should first downgrade your recovery to 2e by flashing CF-root. After you downgrade your recovery, you'll be able to use any update.zip file.
You can find CF-root in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
Since you have XWJPA, you should download the JPA version from the second post. Instructions are in the first post.
Make sure you have 3-button recovery and download modes working before flashing.
oh that's via odin3 right?
i'll try that, thanks
Tell us if there's any problem.

hmm, i've followed all the steps, downloaded odin, and the CF-Root-XW_XEE_JPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1.tar file, but the download screen only says "downloading, do not turn off target!!!
is there any particular setting or where to place the .tar file?

Ok.
First of all disconnect the galaxy from the pc. Close odin. Open Odin, put in PDA CF-Root-XW_XEE_JPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1.tar
Then shut down the galaxy. Reboot it again to download mode. Connect it via usb and then click start. Make sure re-partition isn't checked.
That's it. When setting up odin you can't have the galaxy connected to he computer. If something fails on download mode, you must always restart the download mode or it'll be stuck.
Good luck
aha, found the problem:
there doesn't appear a comport in odin
new problem, how do i get the phone recognized?

It should recognize it when you connect it in download mode...
Mine recognizes it as COM4.
This may be simple, but restart your computer and phone and see if it works.

If not, re-install the drivers for your phone
hi mate i had exactly the same problems as you and it done my head in for about a day and a half but then someone gave me this advice and it worked a treat,
go to market
download sgs kernel
once done flash speedmod kernel using the app
re start phone
once done download darkys rom
reboot to download mode (should now have 2e)
flash zip
choose zip
find darkys
click yes instal darkys
job done
one thing i must point out in 2e is the back button on your phone is now the select button and the menu button on the bottom left is now your back button
hope this helps as it did for me
Restart your pc and make sure Kies is not working at all.
thanks man! reinstalling the drivers did the trick ten points for coldflid!!!

For the record, people do NOT have to flash Darkys or any other custom ROM to get 2e. Simply flashing a kernel that has Clockwork Recovery included will do the trick. Your reco to flash SpeedMod would have solved the problem without having to go further.
Very true but he wanted darkys which was the only reason I mentioned but good to point out for others reading the post

You're 100% correct - my mistake for missing it on the first go-around.
not a problem
Hello ,
I have a similar problem with my Galaxy S I9000 .
I've updated it via KIES to the latest Froyo ( 2.2 as it shows my phone ) .
Next , I tried to install the voodoo lagfix .
I downloaded the .zip file and renamed it to "update.zip" .
Then I copied it to my phone's sd card ( I connect to PC via usb and copied in the 'Phone' folder ) .
Next , I used the 3 buttons ( Volume UP + middle button + turn off button ) and it got into Recovery mode .
I selected the 'update.zip' file and accesed it , but it says :
"E: signature verification failed, installation aborted."
I have to downgrade to 2E first ?
Evening friends i need your help lol

im home till 14:30
[SOLVED] Read on to find out how.
For this to work you must be able to access "Download mode" and make sure that your phone is recognized by the computer.
Here's what happened:
Phone was running CM7.2 and Glitch 13.1 and I wanted Slim ICS 4.2 so what I did was: wipe user data, cache and devik cache then installed Slim ICS 4.2 through CWM and it worked.
But when the phone was trying to do the initial install after it had rebooted from flashing Slim in recovery it just restarts and loops, always about to do the initial install.
Got fed up with this and sort of rage flashed back to stock loosely following THESE instructions, but I didn't follow the instructions like I should have. What I did instead was flash my stock JVC gingerbread firmware (Orange of the UK branded) TAR file as PDA with the 20100512 PIT file in Odin3 1.87. And yes I did check "Repartition" in Odin, because the instructions I had for Hemidall said to have repartition "CHECKED".
This is the result, from 3e recovery.
--Installing package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-P1000" ||
getprop("re.build.product") == "GT-P1000" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-i9000" ||
getprop("re.build.product") == "GT-i9000"
E:Error in /cache/recovery/sec_csc.zip (Status 7)
Installation aborted.
So then some poo came out... but I thought if I followed the instructions EXACTLY as they were writtin these problems would all go away and I can go back to not crapping myself
I followed the instructions perfectly and I still get the same screen as written above, in 3e recovery.
So now too scared to touch the phone without some brief guidance, can someone please please help as I'd really like to be able to start testing and benchmarking ICS roms.
Thank you again XDA
You can try flashing with my recovery kit, worth trying, just download it, unzip and read the .txt first, pictorial instructions included

My only question is: What have I done, and why will ezbase recovery kit for gb fix it?
Before trying ezbase (which is downloading now and will take 22 minutes) should I try flashing to stock like I normally would with Odin where by I just flash the one TAR file in PDA? But if you don't think it will help then I wont touch it until recovery kit gets here :/
Odin can't see the phone, but Hemidall works perfectly... do I have to somehow revert the drivers in Device Manager for Odin to see my phone again?
As you know Hemidall comes with that "Zadig" drivers thing and it was after using this that Odin stopped seeing my phone

You may need to reinstall driver s,, not sure as I don't use heimdall, the kit I sent you is an Odin based kit, will give you a stripped down gb Rom called ezbase, there is a pit file included, and also a cf root kernel, so you should be able to use heimdall

Well it's 2:00AM Sunday morning here in the UK, got home a few moments ago and had a brainwave "Why not use a virtual machine to install the phone's drivers and test Odin" so I did and it works fine I will flash the recovery kit in the morning (even though it is morning... ) and let you know how it goes.
Thought I'd reinstall the drviers on my PC since it worked on the virtual machine, got Odin back
However, I set up the flash as described in EZOdin and it got to HERE and then it got stuck... been stuck for about 20 minutes now.
In the white "Connection" status box in Odin it says "Set Partition"
Phone is still plugged in, haven't seen any progress bars on the phone or any change in Odin, is it safe to remove the phone (Hemidall would say "Hemidall crashed" but is safe to remove the phone)?
UPDATE
Ok so got the phone removed, safely I think...
It's gone a bit funny like it did when Hemidall crashed... so no boot logo or kernel splash etc, just a white picture of a phone and dotted line connection to a pc. But I fixed that by flashing again with exact set up from the instructions for Hemidall, it got logos back and recovery etc.
But can still access download mode and and Odin sees the phone, hope is not lost
Is it worth trying to flash the files in normal Odin3? I have version 1.87. It might be a one off crash (like Hemidall's was) but I crap my self when stuff like this happens and would rather it didn't do it again

Its stalled, Its Failed, but you have no option but to disconnect, which means you will be in upgrade mode or BSOD mode after you pull the plug. meaning you have to Flash again using Pit first but before that you need to remove battery, reinsert, best to remove external SD card and Sim card too.
restart odin and plug in usb cable, it might detect straight away for you to flash again

Ahhh that must be what it is, upgrade mode :/
Well I got the phone out and download mode still works and Odin can still see the phone, so I'm pretty safe atm (I think.....) battery has already been removed etc.
But while download mode and Odin work I'm not doing more to the phone now, if I carry on I will actually have heart failure. So I will pick this up again later on this afternoon.

Could you please explain what you mean by "using Pit first"? I thought pit files go in it's space in Odin at the same time as flashing everything else (when you use Pits of course).
My current plan is, install the usb drivers on a machine that has never been touched by me, Odin or anything else. So maybe this will determine whether it is EZOdin playing up on the latest version of Windows 7... if it's not either of those then I guess that means I am no longer able to flash PIT files and am screwed.
But I will find out, fingered crossed!
Slaphead20, I've taken the PDA, PHONE and CSC files you gave me and would like to flash them in Odin3. I've stripped the files of their ".md5" extensions and now they are just ".tar" but I was wondering if this would have any bad effects while flashing? Does Odin3 take ".md5" files like EZOdin does? Is it safer to leave the files in their ".md5" format?
How it was solved:
I took the "ezbase recovery kit" that was kindly made available to me from Slaphead20 and unpacked the "PDA", "PHONE" and "CSC" .md5 files, I first removed the ".md5" extensions from the end of each file name and then used WinRAR to unload the contents of each ".tar" folder into a normal uncompressed folder for use with Hemidall.
**I did find that while unpacking these files there was two "cache.rfs" files, they are both the same but we just use one when using Hemidall.**
The reason I used Hemidall instead of EZOdin (which is supplied with the recovery kit) or Odin3 is because firstly when I tried to use the recovery kit in EZOdin, it crashed and I had to unplug the phone unwillingly (that caused "Upgrade mode"). And the reason for not using Odin3 was fear of the same.
The process:
**Make sure your handset has plenty of juice cause the last thing you want is a bad flash and then not being able to charge the batter without an external charger.**
Firstly, get your phone into "Download Mode" with the USB cable unplugged from the computer
Set up Hemidall like so...
**Make sure "Repartition" is checked and "No Reboot" is unchecked for this bit!**
Partition ID______Partitions (Files)
____0___________IBL+PBL = boot.bin
____3___________SBL = Sbl.bin
____6___________KERNEL = zImage
____11__________MODEM = modem.bin
____21__________PARAM = param.lfs
____22__________FACTORYFS = factoryfs.rfs
____23__________DBDATAFS = dbdata.rfs
____24__________CACHE = cache.rfs
After the flash is complete the phone will reboot, the first ever boot of the OS is a long one so just be patent and it will eventually (fingers crossed) load.
Q: What is it doesn't load?
A: Flash the above again until it does, or your doing something wrong -_-"
Once the phone has loaded, shut it down and then go back into "Download Mode" with the USB cable unplugged. Now, with Hemidall select the same pit file as before but make sure that "Repartition" and "No Reboot" are both unchecked, then click "Add" and select "Kernel" for the "Partition Name", browse to the "zImage" file in the "CF -Root for EZbase" folder (or similar). Plug the USB cable into the phone, click "Start" and wait for the phone to reboot, then you will have Root (+ SU) and CWM.
**If any flash you make with Hemidall stalls (fails) after you click "Start" and you have to unplug the phone it will now be stuck in "Upgrade Mode" but get into "Download Mode" and follow this guide from the start.**
Thank you Slaphead20 for this one

Download the stock rom from sammobile.com for your device. It'll be a zip file. You'll need to extract the .tar.md5 file from it. Use 7-zip to do that. The .tar.md5 file can then be used in Odin. Browes to it from PDA in Odin. This should return you to stock.

i did i did! the device is working fine, all i want is to take it back to the condition it was when it came in a box!!
If the device is still working then it's probably the usb port. I can get one of my computers to recognize my device with Odin but not the other. Try different usb ports and if that doesn't work try another computer if you can. Also make sure you have the usb drivers installed. You can do that by installing kies on your computer.

You could try flashing the rom anyway. Kies is to install drivers only, if heimdall see the tab, you should be fine. If not, google gt 7500 drivers, should lead to samsung web site to find the drivers for your laptop. Install, and you are good to go.

You could try flashing the rom anyway. Kies is to install drivers only, if heimdall see the tab, you should be fine. If not, google gt 7500 drivers, should lead to samsung web site to find the drivers for your laptop. Install, and you are good to go.

It could be the same. But, heimdall has more options. A heimdall package i have not used. Normally a rom is in a zip or tar format. Unzip the rom. Open heimdall front end. I have heimdall 1.1. Then put the cache/recovery/param files in the corresponding places. Their is 5 or 6 if i remember right. Then flash. Just do some research first to make sure of everything.
