OK everything I flash is giving me a sig verification error please help! This is not my phone I was working on it for a buddy I need help PLEASE!!!
First, make sure you have a good downloaded zip. If you are short on space on the SD card, it may not necessarily give you an error. When you're sure the zip is good, filesize is correct e.g. then just set signature verification off in the CWM choose-zip-to-install menu. There is an option for it, turn it off and proceed to flash. Good luck
It gave me an error can't open file this time! UHH man! Should I just odin it?
I odined it with design gears ics leak... it worked THANK GOD!!!!

Anyone able to help with Root ? I picked up a link in a HTC thread on Whirlpool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1192300
got as far as S Off (Security Off), Updated Clockwork Recovery mod- v4.0.1.4, Now I am stuck on To permanently root your Sensation part 3. When trying to update: When I go to flash clock work/Revolutionary it says: (bad) Can't open Install aborted, though that said some users are having this error and the root is still successful according to XDA however for me I got Root check off the Market and it returns a failed result on Basic and some times a pass on Advanced but some times not. Busybox,Super user,Titanium back up are all saying I'm not rooted to don't have Root permissions.
Have a look at the link below it contains 4 photos of my sensations screen as I went through the process it will no doubt give you a better idea of my problem. It's a link to my blog BTW. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not a member of XDA so thought I would try my luck here before having to create yet another account somewhere Thank You.
Best look at the photos from bottom to top as they uploaded back to front, order of process is bottom to top.

So did you download this http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...8&d=1311991644 file and flashed it via recovery?
I have S-OFF and I flashed that file I have full root. I then used ROM Manager to flash clockworkmod (CWM) because ROM Manager doesn't see the recovery that came with the S-OFF.
I just backed up my Telstra ROM. It just finished a minute ago.
Yes I did flash that via Recovery inc. the old su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip AND the new su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip.version I've tried the other couple of suggested methods on that link I posted and nothing seems to be working. Sadly can't see were I have gone wrong.
Here is a link to another two photos with the error message I am getting.

Did you install ROM Manager? I installed ROM Manager and used that to flash CWM and all is working fine here.
EDIT:
My bad. You did say you can't get full root. Don't really know why it won't work for you. Mine worked first go.

Yeah I have Rom manager but I can't do anything with it everything returns an error.

I just figured that out, my bad. I understand that rooting doesn't stick.
Phenomenal MATT
Sounds like you were one of the lucky ones cause if you read the comments after the steps many people are have minor issues. I'm ashamed to say I've being at it all day VERY FRUSTRATING !!!
Yes I put the ZIP file into 'The Root' of the SD card (Main section of SD Card) and yes in recovery I can see that zip file but when I click open it says:
Can't open /sdcrd/su2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I've tried over 30 times same thing every single time. HEADACHES !!! lol
Sooo looking forward to a solution. I might have to creat a XDA account and post it in the questions section there, looks as though questions are getting answered pretty quick (Good support) ...WITH ALL THAT SAID IF ANYONE HERE CAN HELP I WOULD BE MOST GRATEFUL.

You've probably already tried this, but if not, have you downloaded the su zip again? could it be corrupt?
EDIT: I am really new to Android. Got my phone the day it came to Telstra. You are probably better off on the XDA forums.
Phenomenal MATT
I signed up for XDA but they expect you to make 10 posts elsewhere on their forum before allowing you to comment on the Sensation Dev. one (The comments under the instructions in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1192300
Yeah I downloaded it on PC, Mac, Mac with Boot camp, Zipped, un Zipped and even tried the old Zip file it says to try in trouble shouting section then followed buy the new Zip file.
Awwwww Well Patients a vertue ... Hopefully it's all worth it.
Seems like the guy already gave you your answer. Just download the zip again. You probably have a corrupted download. And make sure that signature verification is off in recovery. Should work.
I've downloaded over 30 times on 3 different computers + straight to Sensation as a hard Disk tried Zipped, unzipped you name it... PC - Mac Normal sd card, Micro SD card... & Also like to add Sign. verify is off too tried it on and off, I a award the file needs to be zipped and that needs to be off just trying everything here pulling my hair out.
Do You go CWM > Advance . backup ur Rom ?
I'm using rev. And I go to backup and restore click on back up after its complete 10 minutes later I go and try to get the zipped file but it fails every time.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710a using XDA App
Finally got it to work. I had to download it from the net with my phone to download folder as opposed to with a pc then moving it to main root folder on SD card. Question is now what ? I want to over clock but I want to keep sense. Do all Roms remove sense ? Leedroid ? What else is recommended now I'm rooted. Btw thanks again everyone for your help.

Thanks Matt
Thanks for posting this, Phenomenal Matt. I had the EXACT same problem that you posted about. Copying the su zip file to my phone's sdcard while the phone was mounted as a drive did not work at all. I had to download the su zip file on my phone before Clockwork Recovery was able to successfully install it and give me root.
Hey, I've been working on rooting my continuum with the new froyo leak. Everything seems to be working just fine and then when I try to run cwm recovery it always has the following message: E:failed to open/sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory) E: signature verification failed Installation aborted.
I've tried starting over, renaming the zip file, deleting it from the sd card and putting it back on again, nothing seems to work and I continue getting the same message. PLEASE HELP!

Use "toggle signature verification" in CWM ?
Forever living in my Galaxy Ace using XDA App
I don't have CWM. That is what I'm trying to reboot into when the file keeps saying it doesn't exist.
I followed all of the directions exactly, but perhaps there is something that I should have done or had on my phone before attempting?

I even was able to flash MIUI which I was using for a few days before I eventually got this same error when i went to reflash it
Anyone here have a solution to this problem because I am starting to give up
Any help would be much appreciated
Disable signature verification, and see if that works. Most likely a problem with your ROM, SD Card, or some magical obstruction making the phone not read the SD Card properly.

You need root to install a custom ROM in all phones. This post might be helpful:
eMJaaay said:
Firstly you need root. Then you have to move a custom recovery to your phone's /system to allow you to install unsigned packages. You can do this using root explorer (paid app, but its the most simple and easy way of doing it) or you can do it using. You also need to have a custom recovery file, the update.zip which when you hit reinstall packages (given you pushed the custom recovery file to the phone's system) would bring up clockworkmod recovery. In clockworkmod recovery, there are many options, one of them being mounts and storages. Going on to that option will bring up your mounts and storages, where the most important one you need to check is SYSTEM which should always say UNMOUNT. If it says MOUNT SYSTEM, click on it and it should say UNMOUNT SYSTEM.
For ROOT, use SuperOneClick. You can download the file here -> link (scroll to the end of the post). I used version 2.2 and everything worked fine. Look at this guide by ayoteddy for more information -> link. You need to choose psneuter as your exploit. Windows detects this app as a virus so make sure all your anti-virus / firewall software is off. If it doesn't work, try and try again. Change USB cables and try some more!
Read the noob guide here -> link. Its REALLY good and gives you a step by step of how to root / get custom recovery and install custom ROM.
Go here -> link. For more in depth information about getting a custom recovery. And here -> link. for Krylon's recovery files (links on his thread aren't all working).
I recently rooted and got custom recovery and installed a fresh ROM (GOV 3.2) and all I can say is, be patient and follow everything step by step and you'll be fine. I'll also advise you to partition your SD card BEFORE installing a ROM just to be safe, because I've heard some people having issues with it. I did it and had no problem, but again I don't know if this is a placebo or actually helped. After installation / rebooting, etc ... don't touch your phone for a couple of minutes. If you reply in the appropriate threads, I'm sure someone will help you out if it doesn't work.

Did you put the recovery in the system/bin?
And the update in the root of your SD?

When it gives that message it usually means you haven't correctly pushed recovery to your /system. You can only push recovery after you have successfully rooted (get a free root checking app from the Play Store to check). Once you've rooted, you need to push the recovery file you get after you extract the recovery zip from the download links I've sent. You can move it from the root of your SD card to your phone using adb or root apps such as root explorer (very simple, but its a paid app). You also need to download the update.zip file from the link I sent (same place you downloaded the recovery file) and put it at the root of your SD card (don't unzip it). That should work!
Ok thanks . I'm going to try this now.
Whenever I try to install the clockworkmod on my phone manually it says: "E: Signature Verification Failed"
I have A Samsung Galaxy Exhibit t599n.
Please reply back if you have a solution.
You can toggle this when you go into 'install zip from SD card'. If you select 'toggle signature verification' it will display 'enabled' and then select again and it will be 'disabled'. That should work. If it doesn't, don't flash that ROM, try downloading it again, check MD5 sums, check that it is a ROM for your phone, and if all are the same, have another go.

Don't you need cwm to do that?

Oh sorry! I mis read! Only have a little screen you see. Try re flashing it? Or another method? That is bizzare. Sounds like the one you are trying to flash wasn't signed when it was compiled. So yeah, try another version of CWM
