So i had to Odin back to stock because in whatever rom i used i wouldnt get vibration for text messages. This worked fine and i flashed back to eugenes stock jk2 that was prerooted. Now i need to install new roms again and im having trouble. I have rom manager installed and superuser was already there. I got the rom on the sd card (tried with multiple roms), but when i go to flash the roms it fails because it can't verify the signature. Even when i go to fix permissions and reboot my phone like rommanager tells me to it cant flash a new rom. On the other roms i had i would just go to advanced options in recovery and disable verification checks but with the stock recovery i cant do this. So my main question is why isnt this option in cwm recovery and how can i get it there so i can start getting roms again. Thanks for anyone who takes the time to read this...
Make sure that you have CWM recovery flashed onto your phone using odin. Also make sure that whatever rom you install is on agreement with your software version.

Are you putting the rom on the internal memory?
Yea i copied it to the iternal sd, i see it on the internal sd, but the only way to reflash it is to rename it update.zip becauae all i can do is reinstall system packages
You have to download cwmrecovery, plug your phone in while in download mode and put cwmrecovery onto your phone. Just installing rom manager doesn't cut it and trying to flash anything will give the exact errors you're talking about.

You put the rom Just on the internal sd card not any folders right?
its doesent matter at least for me if the rom is right there or in a folder no difference just file called update.zip need to be there (not in the folder )
and no ! u cant flash clockwork recovry thru odin ! loL both of these program u mentioned are intended to flash roms not to be flashed as rom p u can flash in clockwork recovery if the rome is made for it which would be packed with .zip file if its odin file it would be .tar not every rom is flashable thru odin or clockwork depends how devs made it

Something must have gotten corrupted in the file transfer. I know your fustrated . Have you tried repeating the odin process?
Yea it was on the internal sd, i mean iv probably flashed 20 different roms and i know how to move them between different file folders and how to access them ect... The only problem is basically that im stuck in stock which has a different recovery

No this sounds like a good idea though, maybe i should use a different tar file.

Here is the update.zip that will flash you into clockwork from stock recovery. Put this on your phone's internal sd, reboot to recovery, and hit "reinstall packages". If your phone reboots to stock recovery again, hit reinstall packages again and the second time it should put you right into Clockwork Recovery. Good Luck.
Thank you this is what iv been looking for
NP Friend, let me know if it works for you.

What rom are you currently running, still on Eugene's JK2? If you Odin'd a stock file, you may have 2e recovery, not the modded 3e. Check this thread, it may help you out with the stock recovery issue. In fact untermensch mentions this kind of issue specifically in the OP. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423

I just added this to the ACS, thanks for reminding me
aSo heres my issue. I installed Rom manager and when I try to apply update.zip it says its not found. So I found a update.zip that was supposed to be for the continuum put it in the root of the SD card then reboot in recovery mode. It applied the update.zip but now when I try to reboot into recovery mode I get stuck there. I have to take the battery out over and over. Any ideas? I cant flash any other roms or do any backups because I get stuck at the recovery screen..
What kernel do you have installed?
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA Premium App
Stock kernel.. Everything is stock.
What update.zip did you download?
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App
^ that... did you use the one from the post on this forum?
Also, is your recovery stock also? Because that would be why........

The recovery I was using is Clockworkmod, and the update.zip file that I used was from a website I cant remember right off the top of my head but it said it was specifically for the I400 Continuum. I was unaware that there was an update.zip in this forum. As of today I've uninstalled Clockworkmod and deleted update.zip from my SD card. As long as I dont go into recovery the phone shuts down and reboots just fine. But if i go into recovery it gets stuck there and I have to take the battery out a few times to get it to reboot.
P.S. you help with this is greatly appreciated as I am very new to the Android platform. I have a lot of experience modding and flashing roms in WM6 but none with Android.
Thanks,
Justin
what screen does it get stuck on? have you even flashed odin yet?
Lets make this easy.. Is there a post in this forum that gives all the files and step by step instructions on how to install the recovery and do the flashing?
YAY! I got it figured out. All is well! Thank you guys for your help. I think we can consider this case closed.
Thanks again,
Justin
Ok maybe not... I got through the recovery but now when I try to flash in CWM it aborts the installation and says this:
-- Installing: /sdcard/DL17_clean.zip
Finding update package
Opening update package
Installing update...
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was depreciated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockWorkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.
Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.
Installation aborted.
Any ideas?
Download the update.zip from the thread with the CWM kernel and replace the one on your SDCard. I'll get CWM 3.x out eventually then as well, as soon as I have some time to test it and get the few mods out there updated to edify.
Id love to but now its stuck at the 'samsung' screen. when I try to apply the backup that I just made it says:
ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.8
Checking MD5 sums...
Erasing boot before restore...
Error while erasing boot image!
When I try to reboot it just gets stuck at the 'samsung' screen again.
Setup ADB on your computer and download the update.zip from the CWM thread in the Development forum. Open up command prompt and navigate to the directory where the update.zip is located. Boot into Recovery and plug your phone into your computer. Then run "adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip". After it finishes pushing, reapply the update.zip and you should be in CWM 2.5.x again. The reason you can't boot past the Samsung screen is because, based on your other thread, CWM 3.x that you tried to use wiped the kernel partition, so it has nothing to boot too. Until you get CWM 2.5.x back, you can't flash anything here via CWM without changing it over to edify scripting.
It says "device not found" Should I be in the stock recovery or CWM? Meaning should I apply update.zip on the phone or no?
You should be in CWM. If it's still not working, you'll need to get an ODIN package that has the kernel in it to flash. I'd post one, but I'm at work and can't put one together.
Yeah it still isnt working. Hey I appreciate all your help I understand you are working. Ill leave it alone for now but if (when you have time of course) you could put that together I'd be beyond grateful. If its as easy as flashing with odin and having the right CWM to flash the DL17 then I think I can handle that but if there are further, more complicated steps to correct this then I may need your assistance further.
Your help is greatly appreciated,
Justin

Wait in Irc. Txwolf1980 is the resident fixer. But clarify what exactly you have done flashing wise. Read the sticky tread about bricked device. All of them.
And what's Brock screen?

Ok. 1. What froyo file were you trying to flash?
2. At what point did it fail?
3. You say you outfit in DL mode, andvitvwent to CWM. On its own? I'm not sure that's possible. Please clarify
4. You say it now goes from download to black screen "really fast". Again, clarification.
5. Ifvyou have downloaded mode, and drivers, we can get a read in odin. It may take a few tries. When you say you don't have cwm, do you have stock recovery? When will you have an hour or so to get into IRC?
Ok to cut a long story short so this is what happened
1. I am using hyperion.. Because of oc feature i wanted to flash merruks kernel
2. Formatted my rom, backed up using cwm, flashed kernel via odin.. Flashed elite modules and ext4 converter and restored system data and cache
3. Rom did not boot.. So i reflashed rom and restored a previos nandroid backup..
4. To show to a friend of mine i intalled cm9 by whitexp.. No boot so restored
5. Got bored of hyperion so reflashed stock this morning via odin.. Successful flashing but before rebooting it said in recovery E: can't mount data.. Phone got bootloops...
6 reflashed hyperion restored backup and phone is working
From all thia i have concluded that my /data is converted to ext4 permanently which is supported neither by stock nor by whitexp's kernel....
So finally here is my question.. HOW CAN I FIX THIS? I want my stock rom back..
I am even comfortable with terminal emulator commands if you just tell it in a normal human understandable language... Lol
but please help me fix this.. Thanks
P.S only post reply if you really have a solution.. No noob or spam answers please

Install a stock rom using odin preferably a wipe package, and use totoro_0623.pit file and check repartition. It will format everything back to rfs

I think Before you can flash a rom with rom manager, you will need a custom recovery.
there are a couple to chose from :
TWRP
CWM
CWM Philz Touch
The creator from the google rom rom wich you want to flash gave no specific one, so you can pick one and all three should work. i'm using philz touch at the moment.
The custom recovery must be flashed from pc with odin, if you never used odin before, you need to install usb drivers / or 'kies' first.
If you never used Odin, then make sure you read a little first on how to use it, it's simple but can give bootloops or worse if not used well.
Since you have to flash this recovery you might as well flash it from there? it's easier i think and has more options then rom manager.
turn off phone -> press volume up - menu button - power button at the same time wich will open custom recovery and from there follow the guidelines from the google edition v6 topic on how to flash it.
-> Inside the custom recovery there is an option for backup, i suggest if this is your first custom rom tryout, that you make a backup in that custom recovery before trying, like that you can't do much wrong while testing
i guess i made it ... thanks for anyone who trying to help me..
now running JB4.3 thanks before
-> owyess, those custom recoverys are for i9505, if you have an i9500 or other device, DON't flash these but get your own version at the 'original android development' threads from your device

you can either format data in cwm or in stock recovery format data/reset
or if that doesnt sort the boot loop quickest way to solve it is just to flash stock rom via odin
Remember next time before you do anything like flashing a mod or trying out something different to always make a nandroid backup in cwm - this way if you get into a boot loop or want to revert what you have done you just have to restore your nandroid backup
anyway stock rom firmware is found on my thread below

follow the instructions fully on my thread
you need to install the usb drivers
you need to put your phone into download mode (vol down home button power button)
cwm is not required and not used to flash stock rom via odin - you must be in download mode NOT recovery mode

if on stock kernel use a tempory cwm zip in stock recovery to get to cwm (need to do it each time you want to enter cwm
http://d-h.st/u2m
or flash any kernel that has a perminant cwm - your choice dont ask me to suggest
Ok thanks, I've got a kernel installed and a rom, got a couple of issues but I'll take that to the correct thread now
