How do I flash froyo beta with out root and clockworkmod???

Hello, I am not rooted and know nothing about clockworkmod. (I have tried rooting numerous times but no success. I'm thinking drivers) I would like to know if its possible to flash it with my epic being stock? I have searched and have turned no results about flashing it from stock. Everything refers to rooted. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

You can root with z4root couldn't be easier. No PC required.

Ok I will. I just tried flashing the beta and it says something about invalid signature??

You still need clockwork to flash.

Do I need to buy clockwork?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

No but I am not sure if you can install it without a pc. Are you using the drivers from samsung?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Yes I downloaded samsung galaxy s drivers from here when I tried to root. Never for them to work even with 2 fresh installs. Thanks for the info on the z4root, by far the easiest and fastest way I've ever rooted before. But ya I have samsung drivers.

is it the same driver you get from the samsung website? You said you got them here so I am just checking cause I am not sure. I got mine right from the samsung website.

I got them here from xda. Can I only use clockworkmod from a computer?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

download rom manager by clockworkmod in market, free will do

Just tried to use that to flash the froyo beta and it says signature verification failed.

I am afraid I won't be any help there. I haven't flashed clockwork yet because I am not sure how easy it is to remove (noob) so I am waiting until Froyo releases. Unless I can't find an easy method to install it and uninstall it.

just downloaded z4root and rom manager from market
z4root installing right now

Worked great on.my phone, but if I flash to DK28 will it work?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

You have to install clockwork through the one click method. Also you must install samung drivers for your computer first. Then u may choose a rom 2.1 or 2.2 and flash through clockwork.

Go read the Sticky Wiki. There is a way to do it without a pc. But since you are lazy and obviously can't really do crap. Here is the link to what you need.

Is there a GB rom that I can flash on the new GB update
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

There are many GB rom options. Look over on Rootzwiki and try Vortex rom.

I want CWM 5.8.x.x

It looks awesome, I've been sick of clicking the physical buttons over and over for a LONG time now. I know that there have been touchscreen driver improvements for use with 5.8+ and cm9, but what is the likelihood of us actually getting it? I really hope someone can make it work, I would be very thankful!

The touch screen cwm? Actually well get it once koush is finished. Our cm9 isn't buggy so it should work fine.
Sent from my Samsung Epic using CM9!

Yep it's being worked on. Koush said it was buggy and unreleasable. Though that was like a month and a half ago.
And we can support it after they fixed the touch drivers.

Ballin. Can't wait!

Cant you just flash the recovery zip?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA

And if that don't work flash cm9. With nyan4.2 with it baked in then flash back to cm7 and check to have the recovery reinject itself after flashing the rom... then you will have that recovery on cm7... worked for peoples rom! Just note that flashing another kernel overwrites it unless you remember to inject it after flashing... cwm backups are not compatible with twrp

Honestly I don't know for sure, I can't think of anything that it would bork. Reboot recovery is now linked to the proper partition so that should work fine, I'm gonna flash the AOKP 34 here in a bit and then I'll see if just flashing the recovery zip works.

I wasn't taking about your way is too risky, I'm taking about flashing the zip provided while I'm on CM7 is too risky. I'ma give it a go(your way) once I do some reading on user experience

Before you apply any update in your rooted tab, you need to unroot it always.
