New to the forums and flashing ROMs in general, so please forgive my n00b-fail. (I did, at least, search the forums for an answer first. )
Samsung Infuse 4g
AT&T
Was running stock ui, rooted
Was able to flash and restore to factory using Odin (following Jordan's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318160)
Took file DarkROM_JVR_Infuse_10.3.rar and unpacked
Repacked using .zip format
Placed .zip on internal SD
Rebooted to CWM Recovery and wiped data/factory reset as well as cache
Selected install from zip on sd card
Selected DarkyROM_JVR_Infuse_10.3.zip
Screen currently says:
"ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.3 - Voodoo lagfix
-- Installing: SDCARD: DarkyROM_JVR_Infuse_10.3.z
ip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...

Been stuck like that for the past hour. Have I bricked my phone? Should I go back and follow the "UnBrick the UnBrickable Infuse4g" thread?
Thanks.
Umm....darky rom. Rar? ??? I did not pack it in rar or tar format...that's your prob....its pack as a cwm flashable zip

Thank you for your response.
I'm now aware that, as you put it, "...that's my problem."
I'm not sure why the file downloaded as a .rar file. Is there a specific extension to the package process that changes the code? Would not unpacking and repacking as a zip do the same thing?
After "playing with it," I got the phone to launch back into the stock ROM. So. Thanks to myself, on that one.
Problem solved.
Are u sure the file u downloaded was a .RAR file ? or it looked like pile off books that why u calling it a .RAR file ?
If you want I recreated DarkyRomV10.3.zip which is of course flashable in CWM, It has 2 fixes that the original DarkyRom doesn't have.
Darky Rom Fixes:
Dman's Build.Prop Fix
Bigfau's Battery Notification Fix
-------------------------------
Installation:
1 DOWNLOAD DARKY ROM
2 BOOT INTO CWM
3 WIPE DATA, CACHE, DALVIK CACHE
4 FLASH DARKY ROM
5 REBOOT
6 ENJOY

Inorder to fix the Superuser Update you will need to flash the SU Binary Update Fix

@rkkaranrk - Very good idea, but no. I actually didn't have a program that could decompress .rar files on the system I was using. I downloaded a copy of WinRAR specifically for that.
@Axiomkid - Thank you. I'm going to try it when I get home. Now that I've had the oportunity to play around with some of the backup apps, I'm much more confident to try new ROMs.
@Axiomkid - This is a silly question, I'm sure, but how do I flash the superuser update? Do I need to?

Flash in CWM. You should flash it as it will keep superuser up to date.

Winrar makes the zip file looks like RAR so the file u downloaded was very much a zip file.
After searching on this forum for a few hours, I am still unable to figure out what is wrong with my phone.
On my Galaxy S 4G, I have rooted it, and then I proceeded to the flashing guide here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122508
But after I install CWM, I am unable to install a custom ROM. I am able to get to the Red CWM, but when I try to backup my current ROM, or install from SD card, it says that it cannot mount E:/blah blah blah
How should I fix this error?
I tried going to Mounts and Storage in CWM, and the sdcard is "mount".
I am really confused, so if anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it
That blah blah blah its actually important. What can't mount? If sd is mounted, then it should say "unmount"...

Ok, so it's the red "CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v3.0.2.8x"
I go down to install zip from sdcard > Choose zip from sdcard > Select blackice_voodoo.zip
Then, it says on the bottom in white words
"CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v3.0.2.8x
--Installing: /sdcard/BlackIce_Voodoo.zip
Finding update package...
E:Can't mount /sdcard/BlackIce_Voodoo.zip
Installation aborted"
Now, when I tried to use the Backup function, it tells me
"Can't mount /sdcard"
I went to Mounts and Storage menu, and selected the "-mount /sdcard" and it gave me "Error mounting /sdcard!"
Is there any more information you need to help me?
in CWM are your mounts Unmounted mounted mounted unmounted in that order?
What firmware is currently on there? the tmobile GB kj6 or the original Froyo?

Right now, my CWM mounts are as listed:
-Unmount /cache
-mount /data
-mount /sdcard
-unmount /system
So yes, it is in that order. I read something about
Code:
A) For KD1 and Bionix Frost your mounts must appear like this:
/cache : unmount
/data : mount
/sdcard : mount
/system : unmount
B) For Trigger your mounts must appear like this:
/cache : unmount
/data : unmount
/sdcard : mount
/system : unmount
I got this on Ebay and I had no clue what the seller did to it, but I think it's the original Froyo.
Firmware: 2.2.1
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: FROYO.VUVKD1
So you are on 2.2. I would back up the sd card. Then format it by plugging it directly into the computer, formatting. then putting it back into the phone boot into cwm. Formatting it again. Placing the files you want on the root. Trying again. let me know

Oh, after I got CWM working, I went into the Rommanager app, and flashed from SD card, and I chose BlackIce_Voodoo.rar and it got stuck on the "Galaxy S exclusively for T-mobile" screen. I understand that after flashing a rom, it takes around 10 mins on that screen, but I have waited overnight, and it still has not booted. Now, I can't even boot into CWM anymore. How should I handle this situation? The whole phone is bricked, and CWM is not accessible anymore.
I also tried turning it off, holding volume up & down, and plugging the wire in to enter download mode, but it failed to do that. So I guess I can't use odin either.
Please, Don't use ROM Manager on this phone.
I'm not sure how to solve this if it can boot to the splashscreen but not get to download mode.

Thanks, I didn't know that from before Since I already did it, how can I "undo" the effects of Rom Manager? I already put the new Update.zip into the root of my SD card. But I am unable to reinstall packages using CWM because I can't access it .
Try using plugging it in and look at Odin again. I heard it can recognize devices sometimes even if the screen is blank.
Edit: If you get your phone up and running again, use the Gingerbread Starter Pack guide to flash a GB ROM without any problems.

Try downloading the Android SDK, install it, when you run it the first time, only download the platfoem tools. Once that's installed, open a command prompt, CD to where the platform-tools directory is located.(prob C:\Program Files\Android\Android-sdk\platform-tools or C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\Android-sdk\platform-tools) and type:
Adb reboot download
Or
Adb reboot recovery
For download mode & recovery mode, respectively.

I found all of them from the flashing guide, to CWM guide, to rooting guide. But the Odin guide only teaches me how to flash a ".tar" file, not a .rar file.

AH! Well, you don't flash the rar file!
You unzip it and flash it's contents
Some rom modders use rar, others use 7zip (because they usually have limited space to store their mods, compress it good!)
I dislike Odin, as it is proprietary and has no support and few updates.
I prefer Heimdall, as it is free, has support, and updates often.
Hope that helps.

I unzipped it and its a bunch of files inside folders :\ Theres the data folder, META-INF, scripts, system, tools, updates, permissions. How do I flash folders?
I got Heimdall, but I am still unable to add the BlackIce_Voodoo.rar in.
It says "Tar header contained an invalid file size."
Edit: I just read about there being an "Audiophile" ROM for the T959V. Since I care about my music quality, I decided to get that.
I downloaded a zip called "redux 1.3.2.zip" from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195878&highlight=Audiophile
And I am clueless to how to flash a zip file :\
I tried extracting the files, and I am still clueless to how to flash those files/folders.

Your UNrar program... Guessing winrar, unrar'd the rar file and contained a zip file, that you thought was a folder.
You flash that zip file from cwm.

Thats strange...what are the two directories of the rar? it should download as a .zip...are you sure you downloaded the aeon rom? Did you use the link in the OP? what is the name of the .rar? Os it named aeon.rar or something like that?
also...i know your on a rooted stock rom, but do you have cwm recovery? That os also required for flashing roms...you cam easily get it by flashing qksters heimdall package of entropies latest kernel (heimdal is just like odin...except less steps involved...)
Also can you send me the link you downloaded from...either as a reply or pm doesnt matter...im curious what this rar is...

Not sure where you went for the AEON rom.
This is the main thread for AEON. It has a correct download link that is definitely a zip file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545239
thats the xact page i got it from but the 1st one listed kept taking me to a goofle drive page so i went on down the page and downloaded the aeon black chrome one. right under the change log stuff. also the rooted rom i have on mine has cwm red on it and i can access it through the recovery mode. the two files are meta-inf and system and they downloaded in rar format. i unrared them to my desktop and put them in afolder and renamed it update.zip. but i havent done anything since. also what is the fix permissions talked about on the aeon install instructions. the first rom aeon 1.3.1 from 5/8/12 is the one that took me to google drive. also the file said it was a winrar zip archive.
That's not the rom... Its a theme...
Anyways yeah just click download on the Google drive... Should take you to a Page that says can't do a virus scan... Then click continue and download anyway...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA
thx man, it was downloading while i was leaving for work. one more question. in the instructions on how to load it there is a fix permissions listed. i am not sure what that means, can you tell me anything about that.

He used Option C of the Odin packages I put together. That already has Entropy's latest daily driver kernel and CWM recovery. No need for Heimdall in this case.

buddy, there is Q/A thread for the same. I think you must use it first. But if you have made it so here is the solution for rooting:
Q. 4) How Can I flash CMW & Root my Galaxy R.?
A. 4) This is something Critical. Just Joking. Its so easy. If you are over GB then flash Superuser zip file(attached) & if you are over ICS then just flash Ardatdat's Kernel V4 or higher. it will automatically Root your Galaxy R. Link for Ardatdat's kernels in dropbox: → Dropbox ←
Also, one can follow this tutorial for Rooting ICS - > {Guide} Rooting Galaxy R on version 4.0.4 & for flashing CMW please follow this tut -> [Guide] How to flash stock FW and CWW and Root i9103
Also there is Q/A thread for your all questions(most probably) here → http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1983262

2. Place the zips in a folder inside the internal sdcard and try.

Duplicate thread.
Check. here
Flash ardatdats kernel v4 or higher (download it from here) and youll be done.
And if CWM Recovery is not recognizing zip files..
Dont put it in a FOLDER like
/sdcard/xyz folder/abcd.zip
Put it like
sdcard/abcd.zip
i.e. Directly in the basic folder of sdcard..
NOT in any folder like bluetooth,clockworkmod,android,DCIM etc.
This might solve your issue mate

Prefix [Solved] in subject..
Many links are bad to recoveries/ROMs/ and even the one-click links are dead. I had a back up on my home rig, so I got it rooted, but cannot seem to find/get/fix recovery.
I have 2 and tried to copy the recovery from /system/bin/recovery from the good one to the sd card, put it in the SK4g with factory recovery in the same place... to no avail.
I would even be happy to try out the MIUi recovery or whatever it is called...
Please advise. This SHOULD be in general, but nobody there seems to have old-school files/knowledge but devs.

If you mean the modded recovery files for the Orange CWM, they can be located here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2200896 <-- check the bottom of the first post for the recovery and update zips. Inside of the recovery zip is the "recovery" binary that you push into /system/bin.

I downloaded the recovery.ZIP, extracted the "recovery" and copied it to the sd of the phone, ran root browser. It said that root browser by Jrummy App Inc was granted Superuser when pasting the file "recovery" to the /system/bin/ dir.
Still factory recovery.
I seem to recall something where I had to run an update.zip to get non-stock recovery to work from a factory-stock-rom, or something.
PLEASE advise.
I guessed at the mounts from recollection, and it seems to be working.
Alright, I had to use update.zip and install the update.zip which sent me to the orange recovery. Installing custom ROM now. Thank you!!!
