Hello,
I have rooted my phone yesterday. Now I want to instal a custom ROM. I flashed the phone with ROM manager. Then I select the option: Boot into clockwork recovery. It reboots into recovery but the wrong one. It reboots into the android standard recovery. When I press on apply update.zip it will say signature failed.
I really have no clue what to do, please help me.
Try re-downloading the update.zip file again to make sure that one isnt corrupted
I have the same issue can't boot into clockworkmod. The samsung stock loader shows up
Select update.zip and it should load cwm

When yo ugo into recovery mode what color is all the lettering on the screen?
Secondly after flashing CWR did you fully boot the device up before trying to flash a kernel? If so that is your problem. Reason being is if you DO NOT flash a kernel right after flashing CWR before boot the device the recovery image gets overwritten. You MUST install a custom kernel right after flashing CWR before fully booting the device up the first time.

He's right. You have to flash the kernel and rom before you boot. If your recovery is yellow your good to go. If its blue then your flashing the recovery correctly. Redownload the recovery file and try again.
hey thx works now, comes down to the first reboot. they should add that to the guide.
Great glad it got worked out for ya.
Im trying to flash the Clockwork Recovery mod to my sidekick but every time I boot in recovery I keep getting the stock recovery screen. First of all I rooted my phone using the latest version of SuperOneclick Root. Once the phone was rooted I installed both root explorer and rom manager.
I downloaded the modified binary recovery file and replaced it in system/bin using Root Explorer. I used Rom manager to flash the CWM and it supposedly intalled it (it says version 4.0.0.2). I tried to reboot on recovery but it doesnt boot the CWM recovery screen. I the tried donwloading the CWM and placing the update.zip file in the root of my SD card. I then rebooted into recovery and selecte reintall packages and i get the following:
E: signature verification failed.. installation aborted?
Im guessing its the binary recovery file that's causing the problem but I've tried replacing the file again and it wont work. Anyway, does anyone have any idea whats going on and how I can successfully install the clockwork recovery mod??
Yes that would say that it isn't using the correct modded recovery binary. use my modded oneclickroot script to push the correct recovery and update, and it should work.

Thank you so much it worked like a charm!! One question, every time I boot in recovery now, it boots in the stock recovery. In order to boot CWM i have to select reinstall packages every time is this normal??
Currently that's normal. I've got the same thing on mine.

Yes that CWM is a fake flash and doesn't actually replace your stock recovery so you would have to reinstall packages everytime, unless you flash bali kernel which has the red CWM that replaces the stock recovery when you boot into recovery mode

EDIT: sniped by ayoteddy.
That is normal, as that script uses the "fake flash" instead of having CWM built into the kernel.
A fake flash technique uses a modded recovery binary that doesn't check for signature verification, allowing us to boot into CWM from a stock looking recovery, even on a stock kernel.
In order to have recovery boot straight to CWM, you need to have it built into the kernel, which currently only exists on the Bali kernel (as there's no need to build it for another kernel).
After installing openscript recovery TWRP 2.2.1 via goo manager and then realize the recovery could not mount system or install any zip. I then try to revert back to team rogue xm recovery 1.5.0 with sucess by installing the recovery zip in TWRP (although some error due to system unable to mount). Got pretty happy that I'm able to revert back to rogue recovery but now faces this STUCK in automatic rebooting to recovery everytime I've try to reboot. I wipes everything completed 3x and install new rom but can't ever boot pass the recovery. I have yet to revert back to stock via softbrick method and figure I should ask for help first before unroot and unlock to start from scratch. below is an image of when ever I booted my xoom. Thanks for any help.
Oh, I've search first but noon seem to have the same problem as mine.
All,
I'm rooted and unlocked. The weirdest thing I'm experiencing is that in both the EZ Recovery and Rom Manager, when I select to reboot into recovery, I'm not booting into ClockworkMod. I'm booting into stock recovery I think. The only time it would boot into ClockwordMod is when I flash touch clockwork mod then it would boot into the correct recovery.
Do I need to flash the Touch ClockworkMod every time I want to boot into recovery? Thats annoying.
Please help.
Thanks!
If you boot into stock recovery by selecting reboot recovery then CWM is simply not installed. Are you selecting the correct option in ez recovery to install the recovery?
I'm good now. I was on stock, but was rooted and unlocked. Like I said, it would work if I flash the recovery, but if I reboot into recovery again without flashing it would go back to stock recovery.
Anyways, I've flashed to CleanRom 4.0 and tested rebooting into recovery and sure enough it went to the ClockworkMod Recovery. So looks like I"m good.
It will do that on stock rom unless a couple of files are modified I believe. Doesn't do it on custom roms.
ok so i have tried all types of CWM versions and all methods and all with errors or fails. zip method failed to verify whole file signature. ADB install: succesfull pushing and installing CWM try to boot into CWM and the device just boots up without going to recovery and using the volume down power and get stock recovery. RKflash tool flash succesfull try to boot into CWM to no avail it dosent and it dosent boot in CWM neither stock just a black screen. So as you can see im all out of ideas as of how to install CWM and need help and i have an Ematic EGP007
