What custom ROM? I hope you aren't trying to flash a i9000 ROM onto this.
Nope, I came across an HTC sense and some i9000 live wallpapers and to install them we need to flash their zip files from the recovery mode. The 3e recovery mode performs sign check and that's an head ache. Every time the update.zip fails to install.
Use adb or root explorer or any file manager with root access and having ability for mounting system partition.

all version cause the stock recovery doesn't let you install unsigned or non samsung signed zip
ok i have a samsung transform ultra from boost mobile
it was rooted by interdepth and shabbypenguin from ACS and AF
there working on recovery and i want to try and help out if i can
question is how would you go about getting a custom recovery for this phone?
looking for clockwork but if not thats ok
thank you
bump
any one willing to help out here?
If your phone is rooted, you can try to download clockwork's 'Rom Manager' from the Android Market. When you've installed the app, there is an option to flash recovery. But I don't know if your phone is supported by that application.
I have an EVO 4G rooted with Revolutionary and clockwork recovery. I'm still running the stock sense rom gingerbread 2.3. I want to flash RA 2.3.......is there anything I need to do b4 I flash this? I know my backups will no longer work and will have to back up again. I also want to flash the synergy rom which I think requires AmonRa 2.3 and something about sd ext2? So I think I need to partition my sd ......do I partition b4 or after flashing the new recovery? Thanks for your hep in advance.
The best thing is to format before flashing. If you have backupped everything you can boot into recovery, format and then do the flash.

Hi all,
when i boot my g2x into recovery (clockworkmod) and try to backup, it says it cant mount the system. first it used to say cant mount sd card but the solution was just taking out the sd card and putting it back in. unfortunately i cant do this with the system
anybody have any solutions
That happened to me too... download the update.zip from rom manager and boot that or flash the new recovery image
How do I get the update.zip though? And when I go on rom manager and click on flash clockworkmod, it flashes the latest version 5.0.2.0 but it only stays in that version if I click on restart into recovery. If I exit and turn my phone off then boot into recovery, I still have version 3.0.2.7 and the same can't mount system problem occurs

I just fixed this problem today.
The version of CWM that you have flashed as recovery doesn't have the capability of mounting an ext4 file system. Most likely your file system was converted to ext4 somewhere along the way. You need to flash CWM again and it can't be through rom manager since Rom manager only gives you what is considered a "fake flash", which is why you see 2 different versions when you boot into your recovery.
Use the search feature to find information about how to install CWM 5.0.2.0.
There is a one click installation script somewhere in the development section for the G2x with very good instructions on how to permanently flash a newer version of CWM that can handle ext3 and ext4.
Doing this completely fixed this issue for me.
Hopefully it will do the same for you.

NEVER, EVER FLASH RECOVERY WITH ROM MANAGER!
rom manager only does a FAKE FLASH on your phone, if you want a real recovery, always flash with NVFlash

hi all,i recently got cyanogen 9 on my galaxy s plus i9001,but when i go into rom manager &try to flash cwm.a list ofphones pops up,but not my one.any idea what i should do .any help on this matter would be gratefully recieved.thanks.
How did you install cm9? You obviously have root, I wouldn't play to much without a backup! Do you have latest cmw? If it wont work you could check out Amonra recovery, I use cmw so I can't tell you much about it. There are many threads here that will though.

its because rom manager does not support rom for our phone
You have to download a custom rom and flash it via odin or cwm
I was running Clockworkmod 5.x.x.x under ICS and everything was great. I have since moved up to JellyBean 4.1.1 on my Nexus S 4G and the Rom image included Clockworkmod 6.x.x.x. Whenever i use Rom Manager to create a backup and it goes to recovery Clockworkmod 6 has errors and stops. I can still run the Backup while in recovery but not from Rom Manager. The error says something about E: not available.......etc..
So the question is: Is it Rom Manager or ClockworkMod or JellyBean causing the issues?
Is it possible to go back to clockworkmod 5? If so how?
Thanks

I did find another thread addressing this issue and they believe a Rom Manager update is needed.

The biggest thing I like is the ability to name the backup before it starts. Doing it through recovery means I have to rename it after its done. Too picky I guess.
Rom Manager just did an update and now everything is working again under JellyBean 4.1.1 and ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0
