I am a noob and cant get into clockwork recovery. First off I have updated to Official Froyo through Kies. I rooted through superonclick, downloaded titanium, got busybox off market and then it updated through titanium. Backed up apps and system data. Downloaded Rom manager it says i have clockwork 2.5.1.2. When i click to reboot into recovery and click reinstall packages it says
"E: failed to varifywhole-file signature"
"E:signature verification failed"
Installation aborted.
Please help i am so frustrated with this froyo and want Axura rom on my phone.
What am i doing wrong? Thanks in advance
This should help you...

Must be stupid, I used my pc to install via debugging it seemed to take but then when i reboot into recovery and reinstall packages still blue recovery. What am i doing wrong?
Edit: It took a REAL HOT MINUTE but, after lots of reading and looking around I found on another post to use titanium and delete slacker radio, then re-run installer from pc and reboot into recovery second time it worked perfect. The day is saved! Bionix-v Here I come!

Yea, in the link in my previous post is where i got the idea from. After some more reading I found post that said there wasn't enough room in the system folder. It actually said to delete slacker and amazon mp3, but just deleting slacker worked for me. After that rerun the e3 recovery via computer as stated here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423). When phone restarts you may have to go to rom manager and click into reboot into recovery again (maybe twice) but then you should see the green clockwork recovery screen. Also don't forget to back up apps with titanium first
let me know it it works.
whats up ou8, i read the link you sent, but i was lost on how to run "script " am sorry am a bit of a noob on all this but am a quick learner and i been reading tons of these forums but they sometimes leave me lost cause they have alot of different ways to do these things. Do i have to download something to run Script ?
Im definatley new to this stuff also..since Thursday...but anyways...once you plug ur phone into pc, with debugging clicked, open the zip file on ur pc and follow the instructions. It will run automatically, it may not take the first time just follow the recommended option. That's what I did and it worked great. Good luck

hey bro, i DL both files from the link you sent me. which one should I open ? the zip file that is 3e recovery or the update.zip file ? i have 2.2 rooted.

hey thanx for all the help. do you have any messangers ?
When in blue recovery, select "reinstall packages" ... then try to boot into clockwork recovery again... might take a couple of tries but that worked for me

This is what i did. I DL 3e recovery. Im opened it up on my pc, and the phone is plugged in with debugging. I opened up the "Install.bat" in the 3e recovery file, but it keeps saying " The system cannot find the path specified " when i run it. I then run the " Temp Root.exe " but it fails at the end of the steps. man i feel like this phone doesnt want to be played with

Thank you for your posts. I had the same issue and spent hours scratching my head. Simply removing slacker finally made it possible for me to finally at least begin the installation of Bionix.
i have a fascinate that ive had for a while. ive managed to root it(took 4ever to find out how) but im rooted with everything else stock. no custom rom kernel or anything(i know im rooted cuz i can use wireless tether with superuser) HOWEVER, ive been reading on this cyanogen mod 7 and would really like to put this on my phone and get rid of touchwiz once and for all, and don't suggest adw it lags my phone down. can somebody plz give me a tutorial on how to download and flash whatever that is. i can't handle the sluggishness of tw anymore. btw i have odin but really don't know what to do with it. oh and sorry if this is already posted but ive searched and don't really feel like going through every thread in existence. please help me!!
Well before I would go and post a tutorial about this we need to address one thing.
You said
and don't suggest adw it lags my phone down.

You understand that the default launcher in Cyanogenmod7 (CM7) is ADW correct? I just would hate for you to go through the touch n go process of flashing CM7 and end up hating it because of this
Well... you can switch away from ADW. For instance, I switched to the GO launcher, and it ran like a dream.
Alright, here's a n00b guide.
0)Download these files to you SD card: http://www.mediafire.com/?dfjjclddzq6fl5q, http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip
1) Flash this in Odin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=657960&d=1310959789
2) Boot into recovery by turning off the phone/pulling battery and holding volume up, volume down and power at the same time
3) Select wipe cache, then select wipe data
4) Select install zip from sd card or something like that and flash CM7 (The file you downloaded from mediafire above)
5)Once phone finishes installing, hit reboot phone or if your phone is off turn it back on
6) Hold down power button, select reboot, select recovery
7) From here, select install zip from sd card again, and install the gapps from the second link.
8) Reboot, and enjoy. If you don't like adw, install GO launcher from the market
more noob please! how do i flash a file on odin? and what the hell is gapps and what do i do with it?

Install this on your computer: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?7946i8tdbe0yv50
Open Odin, remove your phone's battery, hold the "volume down" button on your phone while plugging it into your computer and a little android with a shovel should come up.
On your computer, download the file from step 1. In odin, click the PDA button (NOT THE PHONE BUTTON) and select that downloaded file. Hit start or flash or whatever the button like that says. It will take a while. Once done, you will have cwm, so do step 2.
Once in CWN, use the volume buttons to go up and down and use the power button as the "enter button". Follow the rest of the steps from there.
Also, GAPPS is just the technical name for that second file you downloaded. Install it through CWM exactly as the steps say.

Gapps...is abbreviated for google apps. Ie. Google talk, gmail, google voice, google chrome to phone, ect...this is a zip file package that contains a lot of googles apps that are not pre packaged into the rom
Odin is a software program for pc to push a modified recovery program or complete stock rom files, or patches and some other goodies and this recovery abbreviated cwm(clock work mod ) is the program you use to install custom roms and kernels. All odin file formats will end in .tar while files for flashing via recovery end in .zip

While skafan is right, you probably won't completely bork your device but you can get in deep real quick if you screw up anything major...like flashing a rom not for the fascinate. Go to the link he posted and do it exactly to return to complete stock and then read read read before flashing again, but it is very hard to completely destroy our phones besides physically smashing it. His warning is of just cause....that said..everything I learned(and I'm sure some will agree with me) for the most part is out of necessity..meaning I started tinkering with my phone and learned what I had to as I made mistakes and needed to know how to get out of a boot loop or force closes. There were even a few times where I thought I just turned my fassy into an expensive paper weight! You'll get there and, if nothing else borking builds character!

Hi
So i tried flashing via cwm a rom and while trying to wipe the dalvik cache i think i pressed a wrong menu item. i said something like "back menu disabled", only had the option to format a partition, i did that, and gave me otions to choose from 0m to 4G... i chose 0m. i dont know what partition got formated to that...
anyway, after that, i only got the option to "reboot to recovery". did that, and it gave me a new menu, which now appears always at the power on, with all the options that normally appear when press vol-down... bunt its not on just onle line, its a long list, where all appear. i can select them all, if i tell it to boot, it boots the rom just fine, BUT the screen is misaligned! the press appears higher than normal. for example, i cant press the last row of icons, the back/menu/etc...
any ideeas please?
is there any way to reformat those back? or to flash a fresh partitioning system, even the stock one?
thank you very much

i have posted 7 flashable zips with screenshots they worked.well on my at&t
I changed from an iPhone 4 in May to the Samsung Note. On my iPhone I would immediately jailbreak and install MyWi. In my research to do the same on the note I ran across a rooting tutorial for my device and followed the instructions http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-note-att-i717-root-without-increasing-flash-counter-61325/ (I am not positive, but I feel confident this is the one I followed). I installed Superuser and Titanium Backup, did a backup of ATT connection manager, then removed it. Tethering worked like a charm. This has worked and I had no issues until Friday June 14th.
On Friday, everytime I opened an app on my phone I would get a Force Close. I restarted the phone and watched as it repeatedly happened after every cycle. Believing that installing Droid VNC Server was the issue, the last app I had installed, I removed it successfully and included others I didn’t use. Upon reboot, I noticed the notification of App Updates and a missed call. Checked the application list and noticed that all of the apps I had just removed were still there. I have a ton of pics and videos and thought that I should back them up immediately before I deleted them, prepared for the worst. I was able to do that. I deleted them all, nothing in the gallery. When the phone crapped out again and rebooted, all apps and all pictures back.
I formatted the USB Storage, seemed to delete nothing and also showed the same amount of used space as before.
Time for a restore. I know now that the recovery partition is gone and so a Wipe/reset is fruitless. No problem. I know how to flash the rom. I used this method with Odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506330
Everything seemed to work successfully, but upon reboot I get the same app updates notification and the same missed call notification. The same frozen state my phone was in when the issue started on Friday. WTH!
I have everything backed up. How do I get back to stock? I could care less about the counter. I just want my phone to be usable again.

did you try wiping Catche and Dav?
Wipe Catch > Wife Davlik > Fix Permision, then reboot ..
see what happens ..
Not a noob, but here is where i am lost
I booted in to recovery, chose to Wipe/Erase . I see no option to Wipe Davlik except for in SuperUser and there it is a paid option, not sure where to find Fix Permission and then reboot?
I am assuming these are all options for CWM. I attempted to put CWM on an SD card last night and install from ZIP, but Recovery does not seem to see the SD card.
Are these options that are available for CWM, if so I will push through until I get it to work, but I have had no luck to this point.

I have attempted to Flash ROMs I don't desire just to move forward. They all flash and pass in Odin but on reboot I still have my default screen. Unfortunately, I want to go back to stock. I have done plenty of research and need something more to push on to the next thing. I am looking at phone and there is not an Advanced option in recovery. I have read there are options in CWM but I am looking at what I believe is the stock recovery options.

after you are rooted ,
you should have nothing to do with Odin.
and also, if you were stuck on your phone trying to boot up, chances are you keep downloading a bad ROM..
happen to me before..a ROM that was suposed to be 192MB,
would finish on 158MB
someone else may be able to help you get back to stock ROM..i havent had the chance to ever wanna go back to stock so i wouldnt know for sure.
sorry and good luck .

You now have a custom recovery(according to Odin). The problem is, you're doing the wrong key combo as stated above. You can also go to the market and grab FJ's power tool. You can boot into recovery directly from the app. Good luck.

I have the phone in Download mode
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dnk6ekjqp9vddev/2012-06-19 19.40.01.jpg
I load the CWM Recovery in the PDA box. Start the flash, get a pass. All looks good to me.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/5q4hayf35mm26wr/odin-success.PNG
I immediately attempt to access CWM Recovery by holding the power, vol+ and vol- and still get the default recovery
https://www.dropbox.com/s/d176blydonlvrlu/2012-06-19 20.13.42.jpg
I am so confused as to what I am doing wrong.
Unfortunately those pics aren't loading for me. Try again with the pic of recovery and the file you're flashing. Thanks. If you still have stock recovery then maybe that's what you're flashing in error.
Try volume up + down and power button. When phone vibrates, release power button but keep holding volume buttons until you are in cwm.
I would use Odin to flash cwm touch recovery from pda, then load a rom via cwm. Using that method you don't even need to root because it's all done at bootloader level and root is built in to the custom rom you flash

I wonder the same thing. It's like, why not just come here first? Someone should hack the Site and just stick a link to here on the Site. Save a lot of headaches for everyone.

I did everything that it says to do on here..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18608050&postcount=6
after that the triangle went away but it sent me to the android system recovery 3e, it gives me the option to reboot and ive tried that but it stays at the screen where it just says SAMSUNG GALAXY SII and doesnt do anything else, i try to go into download mode again and it sends me to the android system recovery 3e again with the other options being: 1)apply update from sdcard 2)wipe data/factory reset 3)wipe cache partition. i clicked on the wipe data/factory reset too and nothing happened. what do i do?

Wipe data/factory reset is the correct next step. Select that line using the vol buttons, then press the power button. You will see text appear that confirms the wipe was completed. Then your phone should boot.
Next go to the second guide that BROKKANIC posted for you (first link in my signature) and follow the steps. Feel free to ask if there is something you don't understand.

What do you mean tried to download new fonts? I'm not familiar with that program, but to get you going, we need to figure out what got damaged. Please explain as much as possible.

I would personally suggest against that. Just use odin to flash a gb custom kernel. Then flash one of the better ICS firmwares we have available in the development forum.

That's your call, of course. I'd recommend against it. If you really want stock ICS I'd at least install stock plus root, and install a custom and known safe kernel. See this thread in development.
Or, install the custom firmware of your choice from the forums here. For a popular stock ICS rom, there is Semi by AJ Newkirk.
