flash recovery: signature verify fail

I am trying to install Amon_RA recovery on my N1.
I followed the instructions from the Full Update Guide (wiki.cyanogenmod) and from XDA (recovery RA-passion-v2.2.1 by Amon-RA who does an outstanding dev).
Checked md5sum of recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img : matched
Checked md5sum of recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1-CM.img: matched
The phone is unlocked. I use fastboot to flash the recovery. I get “Signature verify fail”.
I made a thorough search and I did not find an explanation and an answer other than for rooted phone.
I do not want to root.
I tried disabling the anti virus program. I reset the phone. I checked the installation of SDK. I checked the Environment Variables in “Advanced settings” on Widows Vista and Win7. I even checked my sanity.
I would appreciate any guidance to solve this issue.

hi, sorry if my english isn't perfect, but i want to try to help u.
If with the command fastboot devices you get a report the fastboot.jpg in attachments you'r ok.
Unlock the bootloader, command prompt do this: fastboot oem unlock
and accept the question on the mobile phone.
now you have phone unloocked so no free assistance if you broke.
Procede to next step, flash the recovery download rar from attachments and then in the fastboot do this: fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img if you get problem repost.
teh in the bootloader go to bootloader (power button) and then recovery (power button) phone will reboot in recovery mode.
If you have problem post another time and forgive my bad english =)

You said "I do not want root" so why do you want to install custom recovery? The purpose of installing custom ROM or recovery is to gain root access but you don't want to root your phone so don't flash custom ROM or recovery. And you should post in Q&A not both places.

Molto grazie.Your English is far better than my Italian.
As I said the phone is unlocked and, yes, I get fastboot (if not I could not go to the point where I am, I believe)
Forza italia ma nontroppo against Russia

Yes, you're right, but i'm agree with Taodan, why you should have to flash recovery if you don't want root ? it isn't very useful XD maybe you want root in order to backup a stock rom, but if you want a stock rom of android 2.3.4 i can upload one for you XD anbd thanks for say my engolish isn't bad and yes Forza Italia XD but I want to get live in the UK or USA !!!

I owe you an apology for not knowing that I have to justify the purpose of my question.
I was naive enough to consider that flashing a recovery was obviously to help install a Cyanogen ROM. My naivete even brought me to believe that installing a Recovery without flashing a ROM will bring me back to the stock recovery.
Going further I should have added "for the moment" to my decision of not rooting.
And my final answer, regarding the wrong thread, is that I tried to edit my post in order to move to the right thread when I discovered my mistake.
Thank you for your reply. It will help me re-check my sanity.
That said are you ready to offer me a solution which could be posted on the other thread?

My main concern is not to root or not to root.
Re-read my post and you will discover that my question specifically asks for a solution regarding a flash recovery.
Anyway, I do appreciate your contribution. Prego

i think u need to first soff ur phone!!for that u need to downgrade ur hboot to 1.13.0000 or 1.09.0000!! apparently the tool tpbklake is sugesting can downgrade ur hboot(i havent tested it) then u need to soff via revolutionary!! its all easy once u downgrade ur hboot version!!:laugh:

i really hope u can at least give it a look at guides made by our fellow forumers and ask questions accordingly when u got stuck on certain steps or something. tpbklake provides useful link there, why dun y have a look first.
im not a pro, but i think most important of all u need to know what rooting is all about, if u want to go along the easy way, then just unlock ur device through htcdev, flash custom recovery, and flash a pre-rooted rom available (most of them are pre-rooted).

That's not the file he linked. That is my downgrade script which will not work on your hboot version unless your phone is rooted.
Your also describing a stock recovery, you need a custom recovery to flash the superuser file that naathaanb96 linked. Copy his file to your sdcard.
link to custom recovery http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img flash this using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
reboot into bootloader
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
and select recovery from the bootloader menu. When the recovery loads select install zip from sdcard and choose the superuser zip file you copied earlier and confirm. When that completes, reboot and you're rooted.

I followed your instructions, and still not rooted.. I noticed after the installation of the superuser package that the version is 3.0.7 for android 2.0 - 3.2. but i have ICS version 4.0.4

Where did you get 3.0.7? Not from this thread, right? Because you were linked to 3.1.3, here's the link again, just to refresh your memory:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1195049&d=1342168095
FYI 3.0.7 is actually compatible with ICS if you download and install the correct package.

3. [TOOL][SCRIPT][09 Aug 2012]S-off for HBOOT 1.16 and above[v3.4]
PLEASE CONFIRM WHETHER AM I NEED TO FOLLOW ANY OTHER TO GET COMPLETE PERMENANT ROOT
Another Question, I have not yet unlocked the bootloader from HTCDev.com; Before that i would like to get
clarified on following
My Device is running on HTC 4.0.4 ICS with HBOOT 2.02.002 -- it can be unlocked only from HTCDev.com
1. Before ICS update, All Bootloader are unlocked other than HTCDev.com. What are the disadvantage on unlocking from HTCDev.com
2. I have installed the HTC Sync which is came along with my mobile. I Came to know, i need to uninstall HTC Sync keeping the Drivers.
Can i use the HTCSync Drivers instead from this link?
Install HTCDriver3.0.0.007
Download
http://db.tt/9S4iEsg3
3. I am currently having problem with installing any application (.apk) from File Manager. The install button is disabled But when i cleared the media storage, i can install from file manager. But its temporary fix. But I CAN install only from Market.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1643065.html
This make me much worried,
During rooting process, i need to install various files (Say, superuser.apk), will this problem in my mobile cause the rooting process to fail?
OR Installing from ADB is different so that i can install and rooting wont be interrupted.
Please help me.. I am worried about point 3, mentioned above.

As you already installed htcsync you wont need to install other USB drivers as the htcsync drivers will remain even if you uninstall it. In fact, you don't actually have to uninstall it, you can just exit the program from your taskbar. I mentioned it in the tutorial only as a precaution, anything trying to interface with the handset could interfere with adb daemon operation.
You don't need to use tpbklakes guide anymore as I have integrated that process into the script.
If you need help with the s-off process, the best place to post is in the scripts thread, I'll be able to respond much faster.
Be aware that s-off is not root, it is setting the security flag to off which enables access to all partitions, you will have to flash superuser or a custom Rom to get root access.
If you cannot install APK's from file manager, it might mean that you have not checked ALLOW NON MARKET APPS in your settings. I think it's in your development menu.

1. Flashing the superuser will also come under this your SCRIPT right?
2. I have already allowed THIRD Party non market apps. But the problem is different, in package installer screen the install button is disabled. Temporary solution is clearing the data in the media application solves the issue. But its The temporary. Whether this will have impact while flashing any files while scripting is executing?

Hello Guys!

Hi buddy. I just wanna thank you cuz I was looking for the logo and I couldn't find it until I saw ur post.
I know my next question does not belong to the original quote (I'm so sorry for asking you that). I updated my xt1095 to lollipop and it was soak test, it had bugs and I decided to get kit kat back. So I unlocked my bootloader cuz I had to and I flashed stock factory image (from Motorola). My question is, if I receive OTA (lollipop) can I update or not? 'Cause I don't wanna have a beautiful brick

The answer to this question seems to be yes, but I'm not sure anyone is entirely certain. I know the OTA process worked for me the first time before factory images were available and I had a few things tweaked with my system. Likely what will happen is that your logo.bin will just be rewritten in the upgrade. However, the stock logo.bin has been included in the factory restore process, so if and when the OTA comes out you could always go into fastboot and fastboot flash the original logo.bin contained within the restore images if you are having issues

Thanks

You are trying to flash an ICS bootimage to a JB android system. That just doesn't match. If you unlocked the bootloader, i assume u don't have any data left then. Just reflash the whole system then with RSD-Lite. Enough post on the subforum about that U can't use adb, u will need to use fastboot.

I have unlocked the bootloader, and now all i want to do is root the phone. Could someone please please put an idiots guide/tutorial up for me. I am currently on stock 4.4.2 Kitkat. I am only trying to get past the "writing to external SD card" problem, but i need a rooted phone for that. Thank you.

Hi. You are a simple steps to have root now that you have unlocked the bootloader of the Razr i. You can follow this very simple steps shown in the video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIHUo8nx0UQ
It's basically to dowload this package: "RAZR i RECOVERY.rar" https://mega.co.nz/#!sF8wzQ7C!ssc3uPDKVGhti9qhCfQUbDbgpI-rHECRjbAoz-Fx7R4 (It's the same from the video)
Then you copy these 2 lines of commands and paste them into the CMD prompt:
Command to install TWRP:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-razri-twrptouch.img. (Include the last dot)
Command to reboot the device:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then watch the video for the next simple steps, you don't need to understand the language (Portuguese) to follow the steps.
It'll work for 4.4.2. Of course you need to have the drivers installed. You can get them from the Motorola site.
I think it should work for other Motorola smartphones too.
I hope you this helps n.n

XT1068 downgrade to 4.4.4 fail
Dear all,
I'm new to xda and to ROM tweaking and changing, but I am a developer and I know Linux very well.
I'm trying to restore the factory 4.4.4 ROM on my XT1068 because I can't live with Lollipop even if I tried for weeks.
The factory images are posted in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/orig-development/original-motorola-firmware-collection-t3153533 and I followed the instructions there and other instructions as well with no success so far.
What I tried, after rooting the phone and unlocking the bootloader has been:
- flashing according to http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/restore-to-stock-t2873657 using fastboot commandline from my laptop
- trying to install with TWRP
Attempts with fastboot commands were a total failure and only lead me to bricking the system multiple times. Apparently the signature is not accepted so some of the fastboot flash steps miserably fail and brick the system.
Attempts with TWRP to install or wipe and install (also disabling the signature check otherwise it gets stopped by that) bring nowhere, with TWRP just telling that there was an error flashing right after checking the md5sum. By the way: there was no md5sum on the files in the original thread, so I created my own one (with the risk of having wrong md5 if the download was corrupted).
After hours spent on this the only thing I think I figured out is that lollipop bootloader is a nightmare and prevents me from installing 4.4.4. I can't figure out how you guys managed to install without complaints the 4.4.4 images. BTW: the 5.0 image I had on the smartphone was the RETGB one and it was bought over amazon, originally shipped with 4.4.4

Luckily I have a screenshot of the stock indian android 4.4.4 rom. The screenshot show the build: KXB21.85-23
Download it if you want to revert back to stock Android 4.4.4

try easy installer for 4.4.4 in my signature - MUST have UNLOCKED boot loader via motorolla website
