[Q] Win7 app to open a ***.md5sum - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Trying to verify a download with the associated .md5sum file. Tried various programs to verify the actual file download but can not get the associated .md5sum to agree. Used one app to open both files yet they do not match.
The file format in question is like the following: LS-KK-v3.0-2014-04-06-jflte.zip.md5sum
Help?

Use this http://www.winmd5.com/ on the original zip file, the results should match the CONTENTS of the .md5sum file.
The .md5sum file is just a string of text, which is the result of running an md5 checksum against a particular file.

Thanks for the response but how do I get the string of text out of that md5 checksum file to use to verify what was generated by winmd5 on the ROM file?

Unfortunately cwm does not support this, as when you change the filename or folder name it messes up the md5 sums.

It's true, what I do is to create a text file in the same folder, and add every rom backup name with an my own suitable name.

That's not the truth!
Renaming backup folder doesn't have anything todo with md5 sums. This is only ckecking .img and .tar files inside backup folder (this one with date and time).
Renaming folder with date and time stamp is SAVE. I do this after every backup with total commander on my PC and never had any issues.
Do NOT rename "clockworkmod" and "backup" folder, otherwise CWM will not find your backups.

I thought it didn't sound right when I was typing it, but it was my understanding of the issue. Do you mean rename folder while retaining the date created/modified timestamps? I'm a little confused as the default folder names for backups are date/timestamps.
U do not have to retaining the date/time stamp.
U can label it what ever U want.
"Typhoon" or "ICTosti_v.0.10" (without quotations) is for example what I label my backups.
But make sure there are no spaces in folder name!
There's a small bug in CWM that causes it to report a MD5 checksum error whenever it cannot find the md5 file. This can happen, for example, if you rename the folder to a new name which contains spaces. I consider it a bug because it should not say "MD5 checksum error", it should say "Unable to find MD5 file".
Anyhow, if you just rename the folder to a name (any) that does *not* contain any spaces, CWM will be able to restore it.

[Q] EC09 Debinged-Odin Error

I downloaded the EC09 debinged, but I get "MD5 hash value is invalid
<OSM> ec09debinged.tar.md5 is invalid." I'm doing it through ODIN, through PDA like the directions said, and it's the same file type as the other EC09, no I'm not sure what's going on. Any help would be appreciated.

probably a corrupted download, if you didn't alter the file in anyway. The only reason you should get an invalidhash, us if the file was changed in some way, after the hash was made. Which thread were you following for this?
Dished out by my dumb digits
The actual thread for it. I haven't messed with the file at all, just downloaded it to my desktop.

The links are down now I didn't have to unzip them to install the stock EC09, so idk. I might just stick with stock for a while then. Thanks!

Ok that is pat's thread. I think he's putting up alternative links. And, ciscogee, if the file is uploaded as a md5.7z, our some other extra compression, you'd have to unzip it to tar.md5. But, the hash would be made before the extra compression was applied, so that still wouldn't cause an invalid hash, unless Masoria was trying to flash it with the extra layer of compression intact.

[Q] Droid Basement Question

I have a T-859
I went to Droid Basement and downloaded
Download TMO (Odin; SGH-T859):
recovery.tar.md5
Download: recovery.tar.md5
I expected to see a recovery.tar.md5 file. What I found was a file called recovery.tar.tar. I used 7zip to extract the contents and get a file called recovery.img and also a message from 7zip - "There is no correct end to archive."
I tried to download 2 more time with the same result.
Am I doing something wrong? Is the tar file damaged? Will the file recovery.tar.tar work "as is"?
TIA

some recovery does not accept unsigned zip like rom or other flashable zip. If you get "Signature Verification fail" error during flashing you need to sign the zip.
You can give as information works and what this file installation method.

I checked this with I337 AT&T NC1 kernel ZIP. I signed it as mentioned in read me.txt and tried to flash a cellphone. The messages were "Failed to verify whole file signature" and "Signature verification failed". As I suppose testkey.pk8 and testkey.x509.pem are not good to sign this ZIP.
Any suggestions please?
Hi bro! Help me with these questions, please!
This program in the APK version, is now in v3.4, in my case when I use it or when I sign a file, the output folder creates an equal file with a name changed to name-SIGNED.xxx but for the size that It has not seem to be the same signed file, the original weighs, for example 16MB. And the signed copy weighs 1.63 KB. Something is wrong?
1. Zip Signed for Windows has any final version superior to yours posted here?
2. Is the Android APK version of ZipSigned legit? Are they created by the same person or are they other creators? Which do you recommend?
3. We have Firmware DUMPs extracted from BLU brand terminals, but some of them ask us that the Scatter files (DUMPs in Scatter format) must be signed and gives us an error in the installation ("Failed verifications Signed"), you can help us and explain to us which files should be signed inside the folder with all the scatter files? Can you tell us if this program can sign files with the extensions .IMG or .BIN for example?
