[Q] Install Custom Rom - Signature verification failed - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
Yes, i have read all the sticky Threads about this Theme, and also the Guide about this issue, but its doesnt work....
I have a Samstung GT-I9505
Android: 4.2.2
Basicversion: I9505XXUDMGG
Kernel: 3.4.0-1220396

Buildnumber: JDQ39.I9595XXUDMGG
I flash yesterday my Note 8.0 with the same issue, but than i found a CWM Version for Odin and its works, but not here.
At first, i dont wipe my data before the install rom... thats the reason?
I install CWM_6_Touch from the board via Odin v3.09 and try to install this Customrom via recoveryboot (boot with keycommand) => cm-10.2-20130914-NIGHTLY-jfltexx but everytime i geht the "signature verification failed" error. I also try to install the ADAM Kernel, but i cant. I find only .zip files, and no file i can use with odin. I installed the ROM Manager from the Playstore but i also cant install anything with it.
1. At first, i want install the Infamous_S4_Kernel.v4.6_OC Kernal
2. Install the CM-10.2 ROM
Can anybody give me a detailed instruction (pleaes no gobbledygook) what i have to install or wich file i have to flush? You can also send me a PM in German or contact me at skype ([email protected]). I think its more easy at germen for me

Hi again,
So little update, for all other that find this thread via search function.
The Problem, its not possible to install a custom Rom, with the Samsung default Recovery-Mode. At fist i dont see a different and think i boot on CWM but there is a Problem on some phones. There is a bad script on /system/etc/insall-recovery.sh that overwrite your custom recoverymode.
Thats why, i cant install a ROM
Root your Phone, delete the .sh file and install the CWM again via Odin and install your CustomROM :good:
PS: sad, that nobody can write it easy that all can understand it. Everybody speak from e3, e2 and some other special shortwords.

How to update Kernel?

Hey guys,
i have this rom installed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917590
If im not wrong, the Kernel version installed is GL_Core_v5b?
Now i want to update it to v11 wich u cn find in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966786
i download:
Download CWM ZIPs FOR NON TYPHOON ROMS (*series A*)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=408
put the V_11.zip into the root of my sd and updatet via clockworkmod.
after that the phone is in an boot loop and i get the error: nand kernel open failed.
Wehre is my failure?
You can try again, or maybe the kernel is incompatible with your build. or the kernel zip you downloaded is incomplete/corrupt so you need to redownload and try again. You can try search to see if the kernel has install.bat method and try that method instead if CWM fails.

What does your being in Egypt have to do with Acer Recovery not working? The only thing that could stop it is whatever ROM you're currently on. What's your current ROM version?

Step 1. Go to the developer section
Step 2. Read the stickies
Step 3. Select a ROM that suits your needs
Step 4. Follow the instructions found in the stickies for rooting, installing CWM, and flashing a custom ROM carefully
Finally. Do not install the 3.2 FOTA update if you want to root. You will not be able to root or install a custom ROM if you do.
i read the sticks several time but i cant manage to flash my iconia the problem appears to me with the program "iconia recovery installer" when I download it and transfare it to the tablet the install buttom was not shown
So you are not rooted yet, find iconiaroot 1.3 I think is the latest one and root your tablet, install acer recovery, then flash your rom make sure you do backup before flashing rom, hope this helps.

Flash Cyanogen over CWM

Hello,
i got a problem, i want to flash cyanogen over CWM. At first i flashed my phone to another Firmware, i used the tutorial.
The flash worked and now i want to flash cyanogen over CWM, but all time i got this Message in the recovery:
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Someone can help me please??
I got the following building on my Samsung Galaxy S
Firmware-Version: 2.3.6
Basisbandversion: I9000XXJVU
Kernel-Version: [email protected] #2
Buildnummer: GINGERBREAD.XXJVU
It was my first time, that i flashed my phone, i wish someone can help me.
P.S.: my english is not so good
Redownload cm and try again
I did, but it still not work and show me all time the same fail :-(
Try removing your external sdcard and then going into CWM
you are trying to flash an unsigned zip in stock recovery. the stock recovery checks if the zip is signed. if it is, the recovery applies the update. but the zip you are flashing is not signed, so it checks the zip and cannot find a signature. then it aborts the installation.
your solution is to flash a custom kernel, for example Galaxian. after flashing install the zip again, it will work like a charm
if you have any more problems, don't hesitate to send me a PM in German
I wrote you a message Noobproof, hope you understand

As i saw it cant get the external sd card info, so try changing it or mount it manually from mount and storage, or flash a custom recovery again
And the unknown baseband happens too when flashing roms
