Okay, for months now, ive gone through 2 phones and done more bricking then flashing I have done lots and lots of reserach and am getting to the point where i just want to stay stock. Im rooted, and every time i try to flash clockwork through odin i either get a fail, or if i keep trying sometimes it goes through and says pass but it gets stuck on a force start loop and i cant do anything in recovery menu...so i end up fash stock files for telus to return the phone to its new state. I really want to get clockwork on here and try some roms. If anyone could help it would be awesome.
Thanks, Mike.
Really? .... no one out there with telus fascnate that has clockwork.. plz help guys I really wanna run some custom roms

What version of clockwork recovery are you trying to flash with odin?
From what I can tell you should be using the one from the vibrant?
good day.
Okay thank you. I'm at work right now and I will try tonight

On 2.1 I flashed the Vibrant version (using ROM Manager)
From I have read, with the 2.2 update installed you can't flash it (yet).

Hey guys,
I have been trying to flash my Samsung Vibrant for a few days now with no success. I rooted the phone using superoneclick, then I clicked on Axura's link on android development section to get Axura 2.3.1.2. I followed the video posted by the dev to install the new Rom. It stated to use OCLF, then use Rom manager to install the app.
Well I went into Rom manager installed clockworkmod recovery 2.5.1.2 I believe it was. Then I click on install Rom and it asked if I wanted to backup current rom and wipe cache. I checked both and hit okay, the list came up where I had Axura installed on my Sd I clicked that......it said phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery to load, after that is when the problem starts. It automatically goes into Samsung recovery i select reinstall packaged and get error e: signature not verified.
I have tried to get into recovery manually by holding vol -+ and power but still loads into samsung recovery not clockwork. Has anyone ran into this problem before?? I've searched all over the forum and google and could not find any info to help me with this. I really would like to install some custom Roms to try them out.
Thank you very much in advance to anyone who can help. I tried to be as specific as I can with the problem but if you guys need more info I can give more. Thank you
Have you updated to 2.2 already? The official 2.2 comes with a new recovery version, that causes problems with CWR.
If you had upgraded, odin back to 2.1, then root and flash a custom firmware from there. I recommend Bionix V 1.3.1, it is pretty beast.

I upgraded to 2.2 Froyo with Kies Mini couple of weeks ago. I was tired of waiting for it and thought it was going to be a big improvement over Eclair but didnt notice anything except losing my MMS messaging!
Is there any way to do it with Froyo before I Odin back to Eclair?
Thank you

?? I'm sorry I'm a noob to all this so I may not be understanding the quick terminology. Thank you for your response.
Therr is a thread im the dev section on how to modify the recovery but tbh its easier to odin and start the process over...it's not like you weren't going to habe to wipe the phone when you flashed custom firmwares.

Use my guide but with an appropriate firmware from samfirmware.
Not a hell lot you can do about the download speed. I suspect it might have something to do with hotfile - I get incredibly ****ty speed from hotfile, but not from any other file sharing service.
There should be a few threads lying around in the general section about stock roms. Try downloading from there instead of ****ty hotfile.

Before you flash anything you gotta make sure you have 2 backup plans. One is, of course, the nandroid backup. The other is having a stock firmware file you can flash with Odin in case everything goes to hell.
In my case, I have a JPU stock firmware stored on my home computer and on my work laptop. Every time I screw up so badly everything is FUBAR I go back to JPU and works like a charm.
Ah also, along with the JPU I have a CF-Root flashable file for JPU (just needs to be Froyo specific, not firmware release specific) so I can have root.
That's the only advice that hasn't been given to you already.
In reality, the Galaxy S is pretty hard to really brick. The bootloader may get corrupted but there's almost always a way out.
ok thanks guys +1
i will flash my phone with 2.3 and when I'am bored with it i'll flash it with some custom rom

And yet you posted in the wrong forum and didn't give us any information to go off (hint, there's a Q&A forum).
So, what did you flash and how, with what options and what messages did you get at all points along the way?
yeah apologies i was in a rush. im rtying to gert it set up and its different from HTC.
i just used the oden and 1 click root. i havent flashed one as of yet because im trying to get CWM bootloader installed on my phone.
so i downloaded the bootloader off the app and flashed it and it said everything was fine. then i tried to reboot into recovery and its just the normal blue samsung bootloader
it said failed installation and it was aborted

Samsung is a bit different from htc, flashed a desire hd of a friend recently and also had to get used to the differences especially in rooting procedure then
The easyiest way to root and get recovery on a samsung galaxy phone is to just flash a custom kernel (e.g. Cf-root) via odin. They come along with cwm already. So actually a lot easier then on a HTC were you have to do two steps
Rom manager doesnt work for me either on galaxy s 2 when it comes to cwm flash.

I had similar "problem" when i came here from HTC I spent good 40 mins by searching XDA on how to get S-OFF untill i gave up and went trough EVERY "how to" thread i could find in SGS2 forums.
After i got everything done, i had good laugh on my self. It's just too easy
BTW i remeber you from Desire Z forums, nice to see you here.

This questions gets asked on a daily basis, flash the cf-root kernel and you'll have your recovery. Look in the dev section for it.

Instructions?:
Just load onto the sdcard, go into your recovery and select to flash it from there and then just reboot. It's that simple.

T_t_ if it still gets stuck.. is there anythin gelse i can do? LOL
thanks for your tips btw, its been guiding me
Well it depends where you have changed stuff. Best bet would be indeed download a gb rom for your phones region and flash it throught pc odin with a pit file. Follow dr Ketans thread in sticky section of development. If you do that you are likely to get default stuff back. After that a full factory reset on gb should help to. Google for reset code which you enter in dialer. Cant remember but it ended in 3855. Dont do that in ICS btw. All ICS has bug where wipe or hard reset can brick your phone
Where did you change stuff for your radio btw?

Stuck on android figure could mean files blocking booting, in gb from recovery you can do a wipe cache and factory reset. That should solve that. Tp get into recovery volume button up, homekey and power button same time when booting up

so i jsut got everything back to 2.3.6.. however it wont give me the ICS update via android.... hmm do i have to do it manually in the states?
well for more information, i got the 2.3.6. hong kong (wipe) rom from dr k on another thread and its working beautifully.. however i do miss the 4.0.3 that was installed on this note at first...
i used ODIS to install 2.3.6 through computer.. wondering would i be able to use that for ICS?
and when i download the ICS rom does it have to be the HONG KONG version or any version?
sorry for asking so many questions.. im just soo curious haha.
Check your CSC code of phone. Dial *#06# to get imei. Enter that in *272*imei# that should match your rom in order to update. You can change it there to but it will initiate a full wipe.
Also if you are rooted best to unroot before updating via kies.
