went to froyo how to go stock - Captivate General

I followed the directions and went to froyo if i want to go stock what do i need to do?
thanks

Try this [STOCK ROM] Odin3 One-Click Downloader and Drivers CAPTIVATE ONLY
Good luck!

Make sure you back everything up first. The Odin3 will wipe everything out.

Good advice, but I assumed that if they could go to Froyo they could also read the OP of the Odin post.

You have to reflash clockwork and re-install packages, then try to flash the rom from rom manager.

signature verification failed when trying to flash rom

I rooted my sidekick with SuperOneClick. I downloaded glorious overdose v2 to the root of my sd card. when I go into the stock recovery (which is blue), I clear my data and cache. the only other option to flash the rom is 'reinstall packages.' So I click it and I get an error message saying
'E: failed to open /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip (No such file or directory)
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.'
Did I do something wrong?
You need to put cwm recovery on your phone, and then when you reinstall packages, you will go to cwm, then you can flash the rom.

[Q] [Sidekick 4g] ISSUES FLASHING CWM RECOVERY. HELP??

okay so im having a little trouble flashing cwm recovery on my sidekick 4g. i tried the rom manager method,. i tried the method where you change the recovery image manually. havent had no luck at all. when i go to my stock recovery to "reinstall packages all it says is "E:failed to verify whole file signature
E:signature verification failed
installation aborted.
help??? please and thank you..
Im having the same issue hoping this can be resolved
I have had so many isssues with this phone.
Last night actually, I had a similar problem.
I had to format my sd card (don't forget to back it up) and then restore the phone to stock firmware.
Then I rooted the phone again (a file called sk4g with good recovery).
Redownloaded rom manager.
Flashed clockwork recovery.
Rebooted into restore.
Reinstalled packages.
Seems to be working fine now.
All the files you need are in the sidekick forums on this page.
This is possibly the best website I have come across.

I've used search and still can't figure it out. Rooting

I rooted my Captivate but got the
e:failed to verify whole-file signature
e: signature verification failed
error in CWR.
I tried Odin 3v1.85 and when I put the phone into download mode, Odin has 1 yellow box with 0 comm 9.
Rooting with Super1 click still gives me
e:failed to verify whole-file signature
e: signature verification failed
I tried 3e_recovery to fix the 3e error.
I want to flash a ROM but an stuck on how to successfully root the device.
Running stock Froyo 2.2 Kernal version 2.6.32.9
What am I doing wrong?
You could download a Froyo kernel with root, and then flash it with Odin. Your root and recovery problems will be solved...
here is a guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266
OP...use TRusselo's Guide linked by -SGA-. There is no need to get Root first in order to flash a Rom.
That guide is up to date and is all u need to follow to get to a custom Rom. :thumbup:

E:Signature Verification Failed during flashing CWM Recovery

Hi Guys,
I followed each and every step of how to root P3100 but I am not able to flash CWM Recovery. Shows me E:Signature Verification failed. Tried to re-do everything but still the same. Everybody says toggle E:signature on or off but I didn't didn't find any solution to that.
I recently got Samsung update to 4.1.1 so now officially the version is 4.1.1. But I want to do some tweaks to the source. So, if you all can tell me how to solve this issue ???
Thanks
You are probably in stock recovery. You cannot boot the tab after flashing a custom recovery using ODIN. You must get it right the first time.

[Q] Trying To Back Up Current ROM Using ROM Manager

Just installed ROM Manager (5.5.23) and flashed CWM Recovery (3.2.0.0)
Before I try and flash a new ROM, tried to use ROM Manager to backup current ROM.
Getting error message:
Failed to verify whole-file signature
Signature Verification Failed
Installation Aborted
Samsung Galaxy S 4G (sgh-t959v)
Froyo 2.2.1
Kernel 2.6.32.9
Rooted using Super 1 Click
Frankly, I think I'm way out of my league...the more I read, the more confused I get.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
I also have Titanium Backup installed if that means anything.

Thanks, TwitchyEye...
I've read the articles...I'm still learning.
Before I experiment with installing any custom ROM's or
upgrading to GB, I wanted to make sure I had my existing
ROM backed up.
Apparently, I am unable to boot into CWM recovery.
If this helps, the recovery installed on the SD card is:
clockworkmod/download/download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-3.2.0.0-galaxys4g.zip
I copied this file to my computer & unzipped it. It unzipped into 28 files, none of which was an
image file.
As I said before, maybe I'm way out of my league.
Thanks for the reply.
All you need to do is flash a rooted kernel with cwm already in it. Read the second post in lumin's guide. I think you are confused about how recovery works on this phone. It's in the kernel.
OK...as I understand it, I have to download a program called Odin and a
kernel and flash the kernel using Odin.
I do know how to get the phone into download mode.
I'm still a little nervous about doing this (although I was able to
root the phone without any problems).
Thanks again...
You have got to be adventurous when it comes to flashing. Luckily this phone is very hard to brick. Even if you get a boot loop with no cwm you can still one-click to stock and try again.

As I understand it, I need CWM recovery in order to back up my stock ROM...and ROM manager
is giving me all these error messages.
So...in order to get CWM recovery, I need to flash a custom kernel that includes it.
According to what I've read, I can either use Odin or SGS Kernel Flasher.
1. Which should I use
2. Which kernel should I select
Thanks...
Any particular reason you want to backup you stock ROM?

Don't worry....go for it. One clicked back myself like 6 times. Easy as pie!
Will flashing Bali 3.3 with SGS Kernel Flasher work?
You are over thinking things. Just do a one click to stock and start from there.

You gotta walk before you can run. One-Click yourself back to GB Stock and worry about it from there. That way, if you get screwed up, folks have a baseline to assist you from, and can "unwind" whatever it is you have managed to do to yourself.
