okay i rooted my phone with visionary got clockwork flashed and now i have the 1.5ghz and 1.8ghz zips on my sd card. I went to recovery and tried to install the 1.5 zip cause i heard you have to have the 1.5 before you install the 1.8 but back to my question
i get a error saying sig verf failed while installing update
any ideas???? i'm stumped atm
The kernel zips may be corrupted... I'm pretty sure they are signed. Where did you get them from?

im currently rooted via visionary and i want to go bak to stock ruu. my phone doesnt seem to connect to my computer every since the root and i cant use htc sync to run the ruu. i have sdk tools and when i try and download the drivers it says that i already have the updated driver (which i dont it comes up as unknown device) the only reason i want to unroot is to see if that will solve the connection to comp problem. i tried to flash the pc36img but that comes up bad and installation is aborted
any suggesstions on ways to either unroot or get drivers up and rolling?

Put the zip file on the root of your sdcard power the phone off hold volume down and power it will boot to bootloader then it will search for the file once it finds it it should ask you to hit up I think to apply and once its done reboot it....bootloader and recovery are different

I had the same problem at first try to use a different sd card. Make sure its a blank card and format it using the phone or your computer, then put the file on the card and try to load it in the bootloader.

Your going to lol when you figure out why you can't flash the zip. Recovery doesn't like spaces in your path(s). */ruu image/*
You need to remove the space. Example: */ruuimage/* or */ruu_image/* or */ruu-image/*
Something to this effect will fix the issue

I also forgot and it should have been listed I think you have to be on a sense rom in order for bootloader to load the file it should only be nammed pc06img.zip on the root of your sd card and bootloader should automatically do its thing, newkidds ruu don't get "flashed"

steps
1. rename zip to PC06IMG.zip
2. put on ROOT of sdcard (not in any folder)
3. power off phone
4. power on phone while holding vol. down
5. Once bootloader comes up (white screen with green/black/red text) it will initialize the sequence and automatically flash the zip. YOU DO NOT FLASH THIS ZIP IN RECOVERY
it says model id incorrect and when all of the image names pops up when it reads the sd card all of them say PG not PC so i switch it and when try and load it thats what it says?
is the image wrong ?
does anyone have the right image?
thanks again

hey guys
thanks for the help .
i downloaded the image again and formatted my card via computer (fat32) and then put it on the root and walah back to stock. thank god because tomorrow i have a appointment at sprint to get a new one . i thought i wasnt going to have any luck.
just like i thought when i rooted my phone somehow the connection to the computer was messed up becuase as soon as i went back to stock i got all of the options bak. was this just the way i rooted my phone (visonary).
but all in all im back to stock thank you guys for all of the help

In that case, you'll need a modified 3e file in order to get CWM up and running instead of Samsung recovery: Modified 3e Tutorial
I tried the modified 3 e file. I renamed it and and copied it to the root of the sd card.. Reboot into recovery and selected reinstalled packages once.. It gave me the error of saying the file does not exist on mnt/internal_sd card selected reinstall packages and same error. No luck here been trying it for days. Thnx for the reply.

Find and follow the ultimate unbrick instructions. It'll get you rooted and have cwm.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using XDA Premium App
are you using Rom manager to get CWM
if so, i have noticed that i have the same problem unless i do everything twice, including the install CWM portion.
i have install CWM 2 times, the reboot into recovery and install packages 2 times to get to the CWM Recovery.
otherwise yes i would say just flash the Ultimate Unbrick and get into it that way.
I did use ultimate unbrick.. supposedly to go back to stock. Some file from serendipity infused rom are still on my phones, cant get rid of it. And now the base is uckd5.. what dies that mean. I did partition when doing ultimate unbrick.. and do I have to root again? Confused here. Thanks for the reply.

You forgot to adjust the permissions of your new recovery file.
then dont use the Ultimate Unbrick, use another back to stock method. i use gtg's other Md5sum with odin to flash back to stock after i use the Ultimate unbrick because the ultimate unbrick does not allow unsigned packages, so i run the Ultimate then i Run his other Back to stock to get past the unsigned error and Flash the Update.Zip that Rom manager makes to get into CWM......
after that i just WIPE and FLASH like crazy........lol
if i get hung up i just rinse and re-use.

you just go to install zip from SD card, then select choose zip (maybe those are in reverse order - i'm not in recovery right now, so this is just from memory, but you should get the gist), then find where you saved the serendipity zip on your SD card, select it, go to yes... and that should be it, assuming you are coming from stock froyo.
I went to install zip from sd card but I dont see the S7 zip file. I did copy it to the root of the sd card cuz when I reboot back to system I see that its there but not when I try to install it from sd card in cwm. Hmmm anyone.. Help.

I am using the terminal method. flash_image recovery recovery.img
that is the same method as I have used every other time.
I just flashed CMR 5.0.2.0 through ROM Manager last night. verified it just now using vol down + pwr and 5.0.2.0 is what came up. is my phone tricking me? or did fake flash get fixed/changed?
bumping this thread back up, every time i open RM it says there's a new version of CWM so i download it over wifi and it installs but never changes on screen. i just rebooted into recovery and its saying im using v5.0.2.0 but like the last post said is this thing tricking me and saying its really updated or what?
I gave up on Rom manager a long time ago. I have 4ext recovery now. But to throw my posts relevance in there, I just opened Rom manager and it says I have the latest version installed right now when the reality is quite distant from that.
Doesn't really answer your question... But Rom manager is definitely flawed....

I am having trouble, and since I cant post on the page where this should be asked. (this is my first post) I am asking here hoping that somebody will look...
I have rooted my verizon S3 and it works great... I am however trying to install a CM10 Rom on my device. I have followed the instructions and get all the way to selecting the zip on the sdcard. it finds it, it opens it and after about 20 seconds it gives me a status 7 error and says error in XXXXXX\XXXXX .zip
I have done all the steps perfectly and have formatted and wiped it twice trying this... I even have my backup in place...
I have tried 3 or 4 different cm10 roms and they all give me the same error... What am i over looking?
Thanks
I think you need to flash a CWM/kexec hybrid recovery.
Download the app EZ Recovery and flash the hybrid CWM 6.0.1.0

That us not the issue... I can get into the CWM recovery just fine.. when I choose the install zip from sdcad and choose the rom it will go through finding the package, then opening the update package and then installing update... 20 seconds later i get some symlinks failed, then I get a status 7 error in the file itself..

You could always Odin back to stock then re-root and install cwm again and restore your backup. May be an easier way not sure. But back up your files on a PC if you do that.

I don't know how you are blaming me when I specifically told you to flash a ClockworkMod/Kexec recovery... not TWRP.

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

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.
