[Q] Need help after rooting

i rooted using exploit v 2.3.0 with superuser.apk and it worked on my epic since i see superuser. the problem i have is that when i download rom manager and install clockworkmod 2.5.1.0 from rom manager for my epic. then i proceed to backup current rom, i give it a name and then reboots my phone to factory recovery and this is what i see:
android system recovery <2e>
samsung recovery utils
-for BML-
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data cache
wipe cache partition
install from package...
finding update package
opening update package
verifying update package
E:failed to verify whole file signature
E:signature verification failed
insstallation aborted
can anyone help me backup so I can download new roms afterwards.
Clockwork didn't install bro. Try using the run last.bat, that one works when not rooted, I had issues when already rooted sometimes. You could also try selecting apply update.zip, I think flashing recovery in rom manager puts an update.zip on your sd which opens cockwork recovery when applied from stock rec

where can I find the run.bat file? I have looked in the clockworkmod folder on the sdcard, not there tho.
selecting apply update.zip also does the exact same thing

Friend, First of all - These kinda questions should be in General Sections.
Do not try from Rom Manager. Get into recovery mod. Then select backup.
Shortcut - (Volume up + Home + Power button)
Hi..
My apologies for being at the wrong place..
Even backup is missing in recovery mode 3e.
Neither i get an option "install zip from sd card"
I rooted using oneclickroot.
Regards.

Use amits universal root, not oneclickroot, it should install CWM recovery and the missing fields will hopefully appear

Failed to verify whole-file signature when updating with recovery

Hi,
I've downloaded the lastest nightly version for Nexus 5 for installing CyanogenMod into it. The problem is that when I loaded the zip into my phone using adb and the command "adb sideload <file>", it couldn't verify the file and gave me this message:
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.

I've been searching for a solution but I couldn't find anything.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
Well, it was simply my fault to not being properly informated...
The thing was that I didn't have my recovery image updated, so it couldn't install me a newer version because it didn't support it.
What I did was simply install a proper CWM recovery and thus, I was able to install my newly CM.
Hi Please can you send me the link to link to install cwm recovery. I have same issue stuck in e: signature verification failed
