What is 3e Recovery? Ive searched the forum and watched youtube vids but still dont know what its for
Do I need it? Im currently on TPCv3 ROM and about to switch to SkyIceCreamSandwich. I use CWM
I looked in my system/bin and have no "recovery" file whatsoever
Don't worry for rite now just flash sky ice. 3e only comes in role when you have corrupted internal sd card and just flash the rom through cwm.

3e Recovery is the stock recovery partition on 2.3.5 and 2.3.6. When you flash CWM, it replaces 3e Recovery. I believe it's located in /sbin.

Ever since I flashed to the unofficial release of Froyo for the Captivate, I get an error when I try to apply an update.zip file in 3e recovery. It won't even let me into Clockwork recovery. I've tried a factory restore with ODIN (JF6), along with a Master Clear.
The exact error I get is this:
--Install from package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:Signature verification failed
--Appling Multi-CSC...
Installing Multi-CSC
Installation Aborted.
Any help or ideas to why this is happening would be greatly appreciated
It won't work.
You need 2e or CWM.
Ok. Excuse me, cause i'm new to all this, but how do I get 2e back. I had 2e on there before hand, and as soon as I flashed 2.2 from Samsung it turned to 3e. Everything was working fine, cause I acutally had your ROM running but decided to try the stock Froyo to see if I could fix some problems with one of my apps.
EDIT: Gosh I feel like an Idiot. Never even tried recovery on 2.1. Sometimes I just get a bit ahead of myself. Guess I am gonna have to make do with a different rom if I want Froyo.
flash a kernel with 2e recovery
Use ClockworkMod Recovery to install your "update.zip" files. 3e recovery requires files to be signed. 3e Recovery is also standard on Froyo, so simply "flashing a kernel with 2e" means you'll be running a rom on Eclair (2.1).
For your phone to get into Clockwork, the only file named update.zip on your phone, should be the one that was downloaded through ROM Manager. Any other compilation of files that you want to flash to your phone must be named something different.
Phone to DL mode, use Odin (attached) put the attached file (unzip first to get the .tar) into the PDA slot and hit GO that will put the 2e Kernel on your phone use CWM to put the update.zip on your SD reboot install package and there you go.

Ok, my bad.
Now that's a solution for JI6. There are quite a few ROMs on JK3. Is that JK3 compatible? Bottom line is that Froyo is native 3e recovery. I'd rather deal with 3e recovery & use CWM vs. patching 2e recovery.

JK3 is a i9000 rom. it hasnt been out long enough, but since its an i9000 rom, you would need a reoriented kernel in order for it to work with the captivate anyway....which means that a dev that has made the kernel would have added that feature in.

Hi there,
I'm a newbie to android. Just got my i9000 (international version of Galaxy S) for two weeks which I like it very much and flashed it to the official Froyo 2.2 (Build ZSJPD, which to my understanding is based on the European JPO) straight away. But only recently that I find out that it can neither boot into the recovery nor the download mode via the 3 button method, which makes flashing via the Odin impossible for me. I tried to download the Rom Manager to install the Clockwork Recovery Mod but I faced the same problem as the top message of this thread, i.e. it cannot get into the unsigned CWM recovery as it is running the stock 3e recovery.
Nonetheless, thanks to the "Quick Boot App", I was able to go into the stock recovery mode by clicking the dedicated button. So my question is:
Is there any way I could flash the stock kernel back to 2e recovery, given the above condition, so that I could run the CWM recovery?
Is there any apps, which would actual install a different kernel so that I could bypass the stock kernel?
Hope big guys out there could give me some hint and show me the way! Otherwise, I would miss a lot fun and can't even apply the Universal lagfix.
Alex
I thought the i9000 had a different button combo to get into download mode?

i think you would do better to post this question in the i9000 forums, or better yet, SEARCH the i9000 forums for the answer as you are currently in the CAPTIVATE forums. we have different hardware buttons.

I have the samsung infuse 4g and I have tried the methods in these forums to replace the 3e recovery with the modified version that allows unsigned zips...but when i replace the reovery file in system/bin/ nothing happens it does not change the recovery at all and it will not accept unsigned...I also tried the odin flasher to put a infused kernal on it and it bricked my phone twice, but I used g2g's ultimate unbrick and it works excellent...what can I do???
PS: I am rooted and used root explorer to replace the recovery file!
EDIT: I did change the permissions, and when I try flashing clockwork mod recovery from rom manager it does not do it...also when im in the 3e recovery there is no option for re-install packages...there is restart phone where that is..help?

Did you change the permissions? Rename the original to something like "recovery.bak." You also need to install clockwordmod from the Rom Manager app(get it from the market) After that boot into recovery and select the "reinstall packages" twice, which should get you into green CWM.

i have some problem
use for copy file recobery "root browser" not "root explorer"
I you are rooted and on stock froyo, use SGS kernel flasher from the market. Use it to flash the community kernel v8. That will give you modified 3e recovery, and in my opinion its the easiest method.
PS. It will take about 10 mins to flash this first kernel because it has to change the partitions to ext4.
You can find detailed instructions in gtgs infused v2 rom.

not exactly,
it will give you cwm recovery voodoo lagfix edition and eliminate 3e recovery all together.
3e is stock recovery for froyo and gb on Samsung phones. what I must ask the op is what OS version and what carrier are you on?
edit: if that's a Rogers infuse as I see you are on Rogers then you may need to use a custom kernel to use cwm. take your pick of any gb kernel, they are all built on Rogers sources.
Okay, so my phone came with this build number already, KJ2, it's a sidekick 4g, and i successfully rooted it, but i wanted to install custom roms and other kernels to improve performance.
From what I understand, you need to have cwm to flash custom roms, I think. Well thing is, i can't even flash cwm. The phone already came with recovery 3e, which cannot install unsigned packages or whatever... and i see the only way to downgrade to 2e from what i've searched, is using that CF-root zip file, but well, there's no such file for KJ2.
I have wasted 2 whole days just trying to do this and trust me, i have searched, and i know how annoying it can be for noobs to be posting questions here, but sorry, i really have searched all over the place and i'm making no progress. I can't even get past flashing a custom recovery in order to flash other kernels and roms.
Is there any possible way to do what i'm trying to do?
since is rooted go to krylon360 dev thread and download the update and the recovery thingy then go to youtube and type sidekikc 4g all in one and it should be there and download and only hit the batch file
i did that, but it just boots to the normal recovery, not the clockworkmod. also if i pretty reinstall packages, having already replaced the recovery file and put the update.zip in the sd card, it tells me signature not verified, and the installation fails. also everytime i'm in recovery mode, at the bottom it says manual mode, and it says appling multi-csc, installing multi-csc, and it's just there, literally forever, nothing happens.
U got to use the fake flash by sdduvick on that thread

well i have a new problem. i used odin and switched the firmware to KD1, but the recovery is STILL 3e, not letting me do anything. how can you downgrade 3e to 2e?
Im not the best with this but did you repartition? Would that fix the recovery problem if so?
you mean repartition on odin when flashing the firmware? yeah i did that, and the recovery mode is still 3e, which will never let me move on. oh well...i see not many people know about this problem, i'm just one of the unlucky ones
In order to downgrade your recovery, you will need to use Krylon360's modded recovery.
Use my script from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15831175&postcount=124
double click on the .bat after enabling debugging on your phone (Settings>Applications>Development>Enable USB Debugging), it will set up recovery and reboot you into recovery, you'll need to press "Reinstall packages" to get into CWM.
his link doesn't work
Hello, i have recently installed the leaked ver of ICS for the skyrocket SGH-I727, unfortunately every root guide pertains to having CWM installed and working? (idk how without root, since you can't boot into CWM recovery without su) or the built in recovery that samsung comes with. When i reach the recovery mode the version is 3e, and i only have my external sd card available, i cannot browse anything within my internal sd card, and also i cannot install the superuser package because it fails the signature check, which i am seeing this common with recovery 3e since nothing will pass the signature check. How then am i supposed to either revert back to recovery 2e or root my device another way? I am pretty sure the zergrush method will not work with ICS.
Thank you.
You have to Odin cwm.
The above is correct you have to flash cwm through Odin

Go to this link (click on the word) and you will get the CWM that you will have to flash through ODIN and then below you will also find the Su files that you will have to flash through CWM to get a complete root on the phone.
After you are done with the root and everything I recommend that you use ODIN to flash CWM Touch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566613... I guess you can flash it to start with as well but since i did the CWM follwed by Su and then after getting root and going on a custom ROM i flashed the Touch I am telling you to do the same.. Your call
nvm

Place the .zip file on the root of your SD card, boot into recovery, flash the .zip file (no need to wipe anything) reboot recovery, you should now be in new recovery, reboot phone.
