CWM Touch error on download - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I installed ROM Manager and used it to install CWM Recovery but I only managed to set up the original one. Every time I try to download Touch Recovery it says:
"Error while downloading from server. Please make sure that you have a stable internet connection, and that your SD card is inserted and has free space!"
My connection is ok and the card is in with plenty of free space. And it works fine for the non-touch version.
Does any one has any idea how to make it work or what's wrong in the first place?!

Its probably an error on clockworkmods host. Wait a day or two and see it get's fixed, otherwise report it to the Clockworkmod team.

You should have a paid version I think?

[Q] Help! Phone wont finish reboot and I can't seem to flash new rom!

So I was using Darky's ROM v9.3 and everything was fine for a couple of months. I had a force close on a game that always worked in past so went to reboot phone. At this time my phone simply failed to finish rebooting. The phone got past the "GALAXY" screen title and then was caught in the "Darky's ROM" title.
I still had download and recovery mode (clockworkmod) so I tried to do a recovery. The recovery file was from just after I had flashed Darky's ROM. This time when I rebooted the phone did not even make it past the "GALAXY" screen title. Furthermore, on this title screen, it initially shows that it is a "GT-i9000 M" but then the "M" drops from the model description.
I have been trying everything I can to simply get a clean copy of the rom onto my internal sd card but no matter what I do Samsung Kies wont connect to the device so that I can copy the .zip to reflash.
I have tried enabling and disabling debugging, I have tried using "download" mode, I have tried mounting system etc and all to no avail.
Pleas help! Can anyone give a detailed description of settings needed to connect to the pc successfully so i can download a rom for a reflash?
If your download mode works flash rom via odin

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.

I9001 imei restore

Hello! My friend's phone basically bricked while flashing. I did root first with stock recovery method, then i installed 6.0.1.4 touch cwm, which installed fine, but bootlooped to recovery(normal). I downloaded 6.0.2.6(which appeared as 6.0.2.7 in recovery), transferred it to ext sdcard, then installed it. No more bootloop(after datawipe), but now it said that too little memory, cannot perform this action. I checked it from settings, no memory was mounted? Weird. Well, i did as i promised to my friend, installed remics jb v2, and gapps. Starts fine, incredibly fast compared to stock! Now i take the phone to my friend, and then he puts his sim card in, askes pin code, entered. Now, there is still nothing in signal bars. I check phone info, no imei(000000...00) imei sv 00. I tried to install stock again, nothing. Would using only phone to install recovery and others affect this? Because i have done several flashings with this model and always has worked. But then i had computer in use. Help please, i told him that it has it's own risks, i do not take responsibility. I have no efs backup, that's the problem. It usually takes backup automatically. Thanks!
P.s. Sorry for possible typos, i'm writing this on my tablet.

Try to install broodrom rc5 rev2 via odin. I think it can resolve your problem.

Try a non-touch one.

[Q] nedd a bit of help if possible please

Hi,
I need a bit of help on an accident I had.
I have a Galaxy S with the [AOSP][4.2.2][UNOFFICIAL] SuperNexus 2.0 - I90 rom, but somehow I made a mistake and ended up erasing the internal sd card storage so now my phone doesn't work (it's stuck at the rom boot logo). I tried to install the rom again using an external sd but couldn't do it. Is there anyway for me to get my phone up and running again?
Thanks!

You could try falshing with Odin on 2.3.6 again and then flash back to 4.x
With download modus that should work.
But no promisses
Go to download mod using 3 botton combo and flash 2.3.6 GB with Odin ;and come back to jb surly it will work.

Thanks for the answers, I'll try that.
By the way, I forgot to mention that I'm able to boot to recovery. Does that make any difference?
Sure;flash the ROM again and reboot.

my problem is that since I erased the internal storage and now I can't boot properly I'm not being able to make my phone be recognized by my computer while in recovery so that I can copy the rom to the phone again.
Any idea on how I can manage that?
After my knowledge computer can't recognize phone in recovery mod;tray with Odin in download mod.

Actually I found out, a bit by accident, that in recovery if we go to mounts and storage and mount the usb storage the computer recognizes the phone's internal mem and allows to copy stuff in it. I managed to copy the rom back on the phone again and I'm now installing it again.
Anyways, thank you all for the tips
Happy for you and good lac;story for my bad English!!!

Nook HD only boots to Cyanoboot/CWM

It was working flawlessly on cm11 however my little boy said it will no longer boot up correctly and has started to only load up Cyanoboot. I assume he may have done a system update that has made it go wrong. I followed the tutorial for how to unbrick a nook (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663836) with the idea of starting fresh however I cant get it to boot from the SD card. I have restarted it countless times but only ever end up back at Cyanoboot.....could anyone help me out?

That tutorial is for a Nook Tablet. Those files will not work on the hd. Go to my hd/hd+ cwm thread linked in my signature and make a new CWM SD per item 1a. Then flash the plain stock rom from item 6 followed by a factory reset.

sorry for the delayed reply - only just got round to attempting this - I have followed along fine but everytime I try to flash a zip file i get "Can't open ....."
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I have redownloaded the files multiple times to rule out a bad download - any other ideas?
EDIT: Disabled anti virus and redownloaded the zips again - can flash unknown sources etc but still cant flash a stock rom (same problem of (bad) install aborted)
Thank you

What cwm are you using and what zip are you trying to flash?
Sent from my SM-T707V using XDA Premium HD app
CWM running from the SD is from your thread - 6.0.2.7 - stock
I have tried to flash the roms from your thread 2.1.0 plain / 2.2.1 plain / Full 2.1.1 Stock with Root and succulent cm11 all end with the bad installation aborted error message.
Thanks for getting back to me.

Nook HD means hummingbird. How are you copying the zips to the SD?

Just a copy / paste in windows explorer which worked fine for the unknown sources zip (admittedly it's a much smaller filesize)

Only the anti-virus thing and you said you tried that. Ordinarily I would say to try downloading with the tablet but I don't think that your tablet is booting. Try another PC.
