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

[Q] TWRP failed

I get a failure when trying to flash a new ROM. I have three different zips (ROMs) on my phone. None of them will install for some reason and I get a failed error and it puts something about an error when updating binary script? How could I fix this on my nexus 4?
If I need to update twrp could I do so without using goomanager to do this? Goomanager won't download the recovery so I have to use another method

You probably need to update to the latest TWRP version. Use the TWRP link in my signature and get the latest version in the "mako" folder.
Use fastboot to flash it, use the command:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
(replacing twrp.img with actual file name)
If you don't know how to use fastboot, use the 3rd link for guide on installing custom recoveries.

had the same error and resolved it like this:
installed ROM Installer vom play store
installed cwm, and then twrp again from rom installer.. worked perfectly!
BUT WHATCH OUT! i think the error you get is called "error 9".. or something like that, it appears, when you try to install a zip, and the updater-skripts cancels the installation process, e.g., because it is not hte right zip for your phone!
so look at first, if you have the right zip downloaded

About flashing TWRP on the LG G2
This is a reply to the last post in the LG/TWRP post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670&page=116
And specifically, I was about to ask the same question as "ctowne", about the lack of loki_flash in the loki package pointed in the instruction page.
I'm really stuck here, because I already "soft bricked" my phone (rooted LG G2 D802 international) in two different states that required a complete flash and wipe with the originale LG ROM and tool. And one of these was caused by the AutoRec tool, which apparently doesn't work for lot of people and could lead to bootloops.
So, before trying anything I'd like to be sure I'm doing the right thing, and more importantly, that I have the complete instructions to do it.
To sum it up:
-according to the thread, I need the loki package and the TWRP package, but there is no loki_flash inside the actual loki package
-but there's one inside the last TWRP package! Should I use this one?
-also, is not clear where I need to move all the files to make everything works
Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you downloaded the correct version of autorec? I have a VS980 and autorec worked perfectly....even after updating to the latest version (26A), after which I flash TWRP 2.8.0.1 via recovery (which autorec installs 2.7.0.0).

Apparently something went wrong with my first install. I tried again and the AutoRec flash went OK!
BTW, how do you update TWRP? Just flashing the zip via recovery and nothing else?

Yes. Have whatever version of TWRP on your phone and flash it. Make sure to reboot recovery and it will show the current version flashed.

Ok so as per my understanding , you have unlocked bootloader .
You also have custom recovery twrp 2.8.7 installed . Right ?
Since you wipe system , your phone is without any os right now .
So now what you do is download any stock modified rom for your device .
Download latest twrp by xanwar . Flash the twrp zip (by xanwar)from twrp 2.8.7 (already installed ).
Voila ! Now you can flash any custom rom or stock based modified roms .
I don't know this is what you asking

Ok . I understand now .
1)donwlaod latest twrp by xanwar . And flash it. So now you have latest recovery installed on your device .:fingers-crossed:
2)download gecko premium rom from Android development section here on xda . Place it on SD card .
3)reboot to recovery , wipe everything except SD card . (You will lose everything from your phone .)
4)if step 3 gives error then format data not wipe .
5)repeat step 3
6)reboot to recovery now .
Flash the rom that you downaoded (gecko premium )
7)reboot system .
8) do this first then report back .

I don't understand the logic behind not enabling usb debugging !
No need for all that .
If using windows then make sure the all driver shows up when you enter into fastboot mode .
Check from control panel of your PC . If not then reinstall the drivers . It must show asus composite ...........Blah Blah blah ...Android bridge interface .(well i use Linux so dont recall properly ).
Once the desired drivers are present you are good to go ahead .And flash proper twrp .And do the rest .
Bottom line :check drivers
Flash the latest twrp (24 July build) link below

Bootloop after uninstalling Xposed + Firmware upgrade encountered issue

Hello,
I'm really desperate right now and would highly appreciate your help.
The background is the following:
several months ago I've flashed Cyanogenmod 13 on my Note 3 (N9005) using TWRP (via Odin). The system has been working perfectly. In addition, I was using Xposed (Version 89) without any problems. However I decided to uninstall Xposed today using its uninstaller, but I only got a error message ( I don't remember its content, it was saying something like ' can't rename... /lib'.
Well, I then tried uninstalling via recovery which resulted in a bootloop.
I watched some YT-videos explaining how to bypass Xposed in TWRP, so I went to download mode and tried installing the TWRP with stock_kernel_twrp_1120-signed-for_Odin (the file I used the first time). This step failed. After restarting my phone it's saying: 'Firmware upgrade encountered issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again'.
I don't know what to do now. I simply want to install a working TWRP to save all my files and recover from the bootloop. What matters the most to me is to recover all data on the phone (videos, pictures, files etc. which unfortunately I haven't backed up).
I'm able to access download mode (home/power/volume down) but I don't know what to do to get a recovery/TWRP.
I'm not doing anything right to avoid further harm and wait for your advice. I'd be most grateful if you could help me.
Thanks in advance!

Ok, flashing both twrp-2.8.7.0-ha3g.tar and then twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4.img.tar resulted in the herein before mentioned problem (stuck on Samsung logo).
I now flashed successfully n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.4 and it's backed up everything.
I then tried uninstalling xposed via recovery with the uninstaller.zip on sdcard, but got this error message:

E: Error in /data/media/0/Android/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/cache/downloads/framework/xposed-uninstaller-20180117-arm.zip
Any ideas how to fix it? Or do you recommend wiping everything and flashing a new ROM (e.g. MagMa NX ROM)?

FOR THIS ONE ....
i think you need to pull battery out just after successfully flashing TWRP 2.8.7.0
when ODIN flashes recovery and says passed. pull out battery immediately. don't let the phone boot/start. wait 10-20 seconds. re-insert battery and try now booting in TWRP.
