Hi, I am new to all of this, but Im a quick learner. I rooted my phone and have superuser permission. I have installed multiple applications that will help me to perform ROM installs all of which still do not help. I even tried the three button solution, however I am still getting the same message when I go into recovery mode. It is as follows: E: failed to varify whole-file signature then under that I get: E: signature verification failed, instalation aborted.
I tried applying sdcard update. zip, wiped out cache partition, factory reset, etc...
I have tried everything. I tried using Mod Manager, I get the downloads but then when i try to install after I make sure to click backup rom and clear cache, it boots to the rom screen, (not really sure what you guys call it, sorry) and I get that same message, the signature failed, et...
my phone info is as follows: SCH-I500, I500 Commercial Package_DL9 To EA28 (I think verizon automaticly updated for the emergency dial) code 200
hardware version i500.04 firmware version 2.1update.1, baseband version S:i500.04 V.EA28, kernel version 2.6.29 and last but not least build number SCH-I500.EA28
Now saying all of that, I tried all of the above steps prior to this automatic update and it still did not work. I still received the signature message.
I even tried Voodoo, as well as DL30, Superclean, none of which will pass the signature autentacation. I want to try to get past this as I am having my phone replaced due to burn in and want to get the steps right so I do not BRICK my phone after it has been replaced. If this one bricks, it wont matter to much because I will have the new one on Monday.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I love this tecky stuff and want to be knowagable on how to get past this message so I can go full force on Monday.
Thanks,
EssyG
Also I checked the site and tried everything but still won't work.

You will need to flash a new Recovery via ODIN which you can find below for your Samsung Fascinate:

Thank you, up and running 2.2, will post screen latter! Now I need to get my old phone back to stock so I can send it back to veriazon. YOU ARE THE BEST!!
P.S. I love your idea about the 10 post allowence to post on other forums.

If o.k. I will post what I did and that way new users will be able to follow directions. I am a newbe but have become addicted to this stuff. THANKS!!
now I bricked my phone... lol
Now let me start by saying I loved 2.2, no problems with it at all. but when battery ran out I wanted to clean stats in cwm green and the screen would not come up, sd would not mount any how I tried to start over, flashing oden, all the steps, but my drivers will not stay for some reason after flashing I need to uninstall the reinstall drivers or they are not recognized, really sucks, any how I got frustrated so while in odin I pulled the plug, lol literally, and now have a pic of a "phone" then ".." then triangle with (like my icon here)"!" then ".." picture of "computer". I called verizon and there sending me yet another phone. lol my question is, will they be able to unlock it and see that I had 2.2 on it? does anyone know what they do with the phones we send back? Basicly I want to know if they can unlock that being I can't. and if so, will they see the 2.2? Any sugestions?
Anyone there?
Any one there? Also I am debating, do I wait for official release. I heard it was coming out 2/22/11. If I put dl30 on new phone again and they release the update, will I still get the automatic update via verizon? If so will I lose root? Any comments on post #5? I can't believe I had it running I totally messed it up. Thank goodness when I called verizon I got two girls at tec support, lol while I am a girl, I am a tech lover, I acted like I had no idea what happened, well they didn't either, lol So just waiting on new phone to come in, yet again so I am getting everything ready to quickly install dl30 to new phone again. Hopefully I do not lose drivers again, as it seems that once I flash in odin, the hardware icon disappers as if drivers are not installed. any how, I was just wondering if anyone had an answer to post #5 so that when I return the phone, I am not caught, lol that would really stink! Plus I am board, took off of work because my kids are sick and now I have a bad cold also, so any comments would be great!! Besides I need to be here to sign for new phone.
Thanks,

Ok, so i have a new Atrix that came stock with 2.3.4/4.5.91 from AT&T. I Rooted it, unlocked the bootloader, and installed this Recovery: recovery-en-goapk-0630-1029. Then I tried to flash CM& Beta, and all hell broke loose. on reboot, it got stuck on the Dual Core screen, and I can do anything else, because now i get battery to low to flash error. What mode does the phone need to be in so it will charge, and what do i need to do to fix this?
I have a Droid two global by Motorola and bricked it at one point in time. I had the same issue. I am not sure if this is the case with the atrix, but it very possibly could be. In his state often Motorola phones will not charge themeselves. There are a few options. The easiest is if you have a buddy that has the same phone as you. You can borrow the battery from his phone. You could also simply buy another battery. The honestly best, but hardest method is to buy or make your own Motorola factory cable. You can look that up online. After you have a charged battery simply find instructions to recover your phone via fastboot, or sbf. Hope you get it working
P.s. if this helped you, or you simply appreciate me taking the time out of my fourteen year old life then please press the thanks button
Well, I was able to rescue my phone lol. After the panic set in and I was calm again, I searched the house and found my microSD to SD adapter, and downloaded the "alien" ROM, entered recovery and was able to install it. After that phone booted up properly and went it charge mode....thank God lol. So now I'm left with another series of questions...why wouldn't the recovery install the backup I made, and wouldn't the CM7 beta not install, but the alien rom installed just fine? I might to go to the forum specific area for androids foe this one...

Gonna answer my own question here...I had the wrong recovery installed. For others wanting to install CM7, use rom manager, and install the most current version of clockworkmod recovery and make sure to update it. This was my golden ticket to CM7 love
Yep so I tried to install CM11
and the last thing was to:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and that was it. Cannot restore my Nandroid backup - it doesn't boot back up.
Just gets stuck at the HTC page with "This build is for development purposes".
I think I need the stock boot.img but it is no where to be found.
Any help??
Just paid someone to get the RUU and restore then phone. I have no idea how he found the RUU since no one else here has it. If they have it they are not sharing it.
Who did you find to restore your phone?

I have the same problem. Who did you find to restore your phone? Is it possible that I could contact them?
so basically you paid a guy to google the right RUU???
all you had to do is check your CID (its written on fastboot) and search for that, they really arent that hard to find!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140967
also if you're going to keep flashing different roms its also a good idea to keep that RUU on your pc somewhere!!
There was no matching ruu. What no one told me was that you could use a newer ruu than the one you have. Another thing, before you judge, there were no replies to help me so I had no choice. Since then look how many times I have helped others.

As I previously posted, you can use a newer ruu than the version you have installed. That's what the guy did.
In not judging at all man, i just couldnt understand as to why you couldnt fine the info... They guy you paid is no different to you or me, che just searched harder... As for the ruu the name itself tells you its an update... No biggie im glad you got it worked out in the end

Did you not read what I said? THERE WAS NO MATCHING RUU! Read OK????
No one told me you could use a NEWER RUU.
If someone - perhaps you had told me, yeah fine, I could have done it. No one helped ok?
BTW: I did a nandroid backup, I had installed custom recovery, rooted with superSU etc... I had adb, fastboot working too. Because I couldn't get an answer I paid someone.
If you have a JTAG machine and you were running a business then maybe you are just like him.

dude theres no need to get fassy about anything... unless your one s is knock off means that there is a RUU for your device and that you simply couldnt find one in the small amount of time that you searched for one...
and just to gnaw a little more at your flawed logic and sour attitude RUU means "ROM UPDATE UTILITY" so i guess your right in not being able to use a newer one... :good:
AND BTW.. i dont have a jtag but i do run a business and in my line of work we see folk like you everyday, ever so quick to get pi**ed at someone for THEIR OWN mistakes!!!
and maybe if youre that impatient and wound up for your own calamities it serves you right to have paid for a simple task..

Right and that's why I have more thanks and posts than you for helping people.
Yes, I know that a RUU has a version number too. I know what it means. If you even took the time to realize that after having to pay, I helped out other people after that so they wouldn't have to pay.
I guess you don't read. I said you COULD use a newer version of the RUU but no one told me.
Where were you when I asked for help? Never mind, you go about yourself and I will continue helping.
In my line of work I know people like you too. You are the type of person people avoid so create your own thread and stop jumping in with unhelpful info.

about your deluded logic: paying a guy to fix your mistakes is the right info??? seriously?? and thats supposed to help the next guy more than directing him towards the right RUU??? boy you really are a contribution to the comunity...
about your thanks rating: i signed up last month and youve been here since january if youve ever contributed anything on here then you should have more thanks than me, its basic math, also i think i should point out that its a forum and not "thank marathon" nobody wins a prize for them...
as far as helping people: i suppose you have, i dont really care that much either..
lastly: i came on your thread infact to lend a hand, until i saw that youre actually lazy and ready to fire off your mouth at strangers for nothing apart from stating the obvious truth...
so as of now you can take your all your thanks and try and cash them in for the next phone you softbrick and "need" to pay someone else to fix...or maybe not!!!

I understand how the RUU works and how to use it. My problem, though I hope not, may be slightly more unique?
I had previously rooted by ONE S T-Mobile version and it had been working fine. I then decided to try out another rom. I likely flashed an incorrect boot img because it would only reboot into fastboot, but would still allow me to go into recovery. I went to recovery and restored my nandroid backup; however, now the phone will get stuck on the opening HTC screen the red language on the bottom, "this build is for development purposes only." It will hang on this screen for about 20 seconds and then turn off. No loop. When I attempt to power up again, I get a quick horizontal flash of light across my screen and then the orange LED comes on in the top left corner indicating the phone is charging. I then hold down power and again the phone gets stuck on the opening HTC screen with the red language.
My problem is that I cannot get the phone into fastboot
I've received advice on how to enter the bootloader: power off the phone manually by pressing power for 10+ seconds. Then I' should be able to enter the bootloader and fastboot. (Vol down + power)
Unfortunately, no matter how many times I try, using the above method and a variety of other methods, I still can't get past "HTC developmental purposes only" screen. I'm not new to android and have experience with a number of phones, but this is my first HTC. Pretty frustrating thus far. Rather than spend many more hours pulling out my hair and continually going in circles with no progress to show for my efforts, I'd rather pay someone to make the necessary fixes for me.
Any additional advice would be much appreciated.

Thankfully I finally figured out how to consistently get my phone to enter into Fastboot; however, no the trouble I'm having is finding the proper RUU. I've tried the 3 T-mobile varients available in the RUU depository found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094414
But alas, while I am able to run the RUU program, which enters my phone into a mode where the screen is all black expect for the HTC logo in the middle, I keep on getting error codes. Are there more than 3 RUU varients identified in the depository?
Oh, I should note that I was also able to get into recovery, but my SD was unable to mount so I can't find my Nandroid

I believe I'm using TWRP 6.3.0...I'm at work right now and without the phone, but I'm fairly confident that's the recovery. I'll to get the phone into USB mode and see if I'm offered the opportunity to format the memory.

That won't help. You can fix the sdcrad bug by flashing stock recovery via fastbot and preform "factory reset + clear storage"

Not sure where to start asking for help. Here is where I'm at :
Twrp (2.8.6?) works great... Too good
Used it to create a complete Nandroid of my original (jb) system.. I backed up everything I could see.
Installed a blisspop rom that also worked.
Decided to return to the original system .
In twrp did factory reset, advanced wipe of dalvic cache, data, and system each time.
Did restore with md5 check. 6 md5's all good, no failures
Restore from Nandroid file on ext micro sd. Everything successful. No fails reported anywhere.
Reboot. System tries to start but returns to twrp instead of booting to system. Have done this 3 times with same results.
My stock was something like UEUCOI1.
I hate to have to start over but will if that's the best I can do. If so I don't know where to proceed from here. Where to locate a stock room
Any suggestions are much appreciated,
Best regards,
Dr Dan

Ok, I have seen what you have done. You installed and did too many things at once on TWRP! If you do that you will get a bootloop or a soft-brick which is very common. If I ever got stuck I just downloaded Samsung Smart Switch for Windows.
1st: Turn off your tablet/phone.
2nd: Press More then Emergency software recovery and initialization.
3rd: Press Device initialization.
4th: Take off your cover of your tablet/phone and see the sticker for the Model Number and the Serial Number and type it in.
5th: Sit back and wait for 10 - 120 minutes and it should be done!
(Not all steps have been written down in this post. You'll see it in the Smart Switch app for Windows.)
That should do it!
Hope I helped,

Hi Jonathan,
I got the back cover off and found something that I suspect is the serial number. It is SNR32CB01G4SN. Does that seem right to you? Inside the back cover (plastic) is KIGDSW1102 504B. Regardless it never asks for a serial number.
Your instructions call for a model number. I could not find one inside the back cover. The smart switch PC app is calling for a model name. There is no place for a serial number. The app will not accept GT-N8013 in the name space nor will it accept Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1.
I don't know what other info I can give it. What do you recommend?
Thanks for helping me get started,

Update :
After experimenting and pushing a bunch of buttons I was able to get it to accept the model name as GT-N8013 and the serial number as written above except that I omitted the first 2 letters (SN). The search then reported...
"'GT-N8013' does not support initializing. Please contact our service center."
Looks like I'm still up the proverbial Creek. Stuck in TWRP never never land.
Thanks for trying ,

Update. Upon reading about smart switch it says it is only good for devices with android 4.3 or higher. This tablet in its last update was 4.1.2. The last rom I had (Blisspop) was 5.1.1 but I doubt samsung would accept that as valid software.
Conclusion, smart switch is a dead end. I'm hoping to make either gnoba or hyperdrive rom work but am having a hard time getting the files needed. Also cannot make Sammobile site work so I cannot get the original firmware to flash.
I'll keep swinging as long as I can.

I actually starting to think that twrp is just not the right recovery for Note 10.1. When I was trying to flash the original software it happened to me too. It just has a bug or insufficiency to install system on some roms. Here is what I did:
-Installed gnabo rom for a system base. I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU FLASH THE SAME BASED ROM WITH THE ROM YOU WANT TO FLASH.
-Wipe everything EXCEPT system.
-Flash the rom you want. In my case it was the stock rom.
Well, not a proper, solid solution but if it's working, who cares?
Hi furkey,
I also saw the gnabo room. I got 6 files...
Gnabo room v8
N801x+v6. Zip
Update-supersu-v1. 99.zip
Gt-n8013-kk-WiFi -fix .zip
Stock-gt-n8000-leaked-kk-boot.img-cwr-installer.zip (really a convoluted name?)
V8-final-fix.zip
I was unable to get the kernal. Each attempt sent me to the playstore to install Mega drive. I have it already installed and am fully subscribed but...
I wrote Mikyno (the creator of gnabo) asking for help but never heard back.
The morass of gnabo files is bewildering. I don't know what I need and don't need and how or with what tools to load them.
I'm pretty sure I need the kernal as I understand it the kernal is the interface between hardware and software. Without it and without some guidance or support from the creator I gave up.
Then I spent a couple of days trying to locate a 4.1,2 stock firmware (ready to give up on roms altogether) . There were several published but all links have expired and the posters do not respond. Sammobile requires a puzzle be solved to register. I spent several hours trying to make my tablet move a puzzle piece. No success.
Finally I gave up and reloaded the blisspop I'd installed to start this journey. It is a bit flakey at times but it's all I have. I cannot go forward and cannot go backward.
Any directions you can send my way are much appreciated.

Hello,
I too am experiencing this. I really can't throw this device away. I have even tried a stock rom from high on android. Downloaded and used odin to flash to no avail. I hope anyone will have an answer or another stock rom or anything!
Thank you!
Tony
Hi badteddy,
Perhaps we can work this out together. I'd like to try out the stock rom you have. I went to the site but was unable to search very well at all and could not find any stock roms. Can you send me a download link to it? I assume it is for the UEUCOI1 build. I think anything close should work. I also assume your tablet is the GT-N8013 Wifi only version.
Have you loaded the blisspop rom and twrp both? I have both working as advertised with a minor improvement.
Looking forward to hearing from you ,
Dan

i have not tried the blisspop rom. I believe I was using the latest twrp.
Just do what I said in the first place. It worked out for me and I have a strong feeling that it will work out for you too (well, hopefully). You can use just the main rom file, not thinking others are required too. Or you can simply flash the tab s sensation rom instead of gnabo rom. It can be found in this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-1/development/gnabo-rom-x-tab-s-feature-t3164779. Notify me if you succeed or not.
And do not forget to mention me otherwise I may not notice that you have wroten to me.

Thanks much for the links. That site has always given me grief. When I select download it simply takes me back to the same page to select download again etc. This time your 2nd link worked! Great day. I got the file, unzipped it, removed the ". Md5" extension and ran the md5 Checker. It failed. I hope you checked yours before installing it. Is there any other place I can get that file. Upon returning to the same page to dl the file again I got stuck back in the old circle I have always found myself in.
On anther note; I think furkey is stepping in to help. He wants us to try the gnabo rom. It looks good but there are 7 files needed. I don't know if furkey was referring to you or to me in his last post. I'll ask and see. I think he can easily clear the air on what is needed to load gnabo.
I also am using the latest twrp (2.8.6 I think).
I'll get back when I learn more.

Just do what I said in the first place. It worked out for me and I have a strong feeling that it will work out for you too (well, hopefully). You can use just the main rom file, not thinking others are required too. Or you can simply flash the tab s sensation rom instead of gnabo rom. It can be found in this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-1/development/gnabo-rom-x-tab-s-feature-t3164779. Notify me if you succeed or not.
And do not forget to mention me otherwise I may not notice that you have wroten to me.

Hi furkey,
Thanks much for stepping in. I'm assuming you mean me instead of (possibly in addition to) badteddy.
I'd never heard of the tab s rom. It looks really good. The gnabo scares me a little. My concern is you likely have flashed more support software than I. What works for you may well crash mine.
The tab s rom was given without an md5 so I can only hope I got a good download.
Once I've rebuilt my courage I'll give it a go and report back to you (and badteddy) with results.
Best regards,
Dr Dan
I don't recall a stylus on the tab s. Does this rom support the active stylus? Do you know if there is an addon that will include support of not? I'll also ask the creator but I've yet to hear back from any rom maker save the sweet lady that made the blisspop rom.... Needy blonde.

It's not a Tab S rom. It's a Note 10.1 rom with Tab S features in it like new touchwiz, file explorer and etc. Your s-pen will work on this rom.

Hi badteddy,
Perhaps we can work this out together. I'd like to try out the stock rom you have. I went to the site but was unable to search very well at all and could not find any stock roms. Can you send me a download link to it? I assume it is for the UEUCOI1 build. I think anything close should work. I also assume your tablet is the GT-N8013 Wifi only version.
Have you loaded the blisspop rom and twrp both? I have both working as advertised with a minor improvement.
Looking forward to hearing from you ,
Dan

OK. I tried out the Tab S Sensation Rom. It is outstanding. Here is a link that shows what I did,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67440486&postcount=342
Furkey recommended it and he was spot on!
I was never able to dl the link you gave but I did find the file and checksum on a different mirror. I finally got it but have no use for it as the tab s room works better than the stock.
Enjoy,
Dr Dan

You are the greatest. That rom is everything you said it would be. Wish I'd found it 2 years ago.

Update :
After experimenting and pushing a bunch of buttons I was able to get it to accept the model name as GT-N8013 and the serial number as written above except that I omitted the first 2 letters (SN). The search then reported...
"'GT-N8013' does not support initializing. Please contact our service center."
Looks like I'm still up the proverbial Creek. Stuck in TWRP never never land.
Thanks for trying ,

Update. Upon reading about smart switch it says it is only good for devices with android 4.3 or higher. This tablet in its last update was 4.1.2. The last rom I had (Blisspop) was 5.1.1 but I doubt samsung would accept that as valid software.
Conclusion, smart switch is a dead end. I'm hoping to make either gnoba or hyperdrive rom work but am having a hard time getting the files needed. Also cannot make Sammobile site work so I cannot get the original firmware to flash.
I'll keep swinging as long as I can.

Hello, drdan123,
I am Jonathan Kang, and I'm using my secondary account.
So try to use Samsung Kies because it probably supports older devices. Smart Switch is for the newer devices. I hope I helped!
Hi everyone I just got a lg Stylo 6 from boost. I was hoping that as I picked mine up for pennies(50$) that there would be a way already spoken, that doesn't seem to be the case. I heard that taking KDZ rom info and splice the original r software and patch it through magisk. This can be don? I hope so . But what I was going to do was start a thread that supports having a TWRP
Built for it would be better, I've got (40$) onit being a new created re covery would be better, idk I haven't been online in years since
The J3 emerge was the last thing I worked on as a tester, that I could get a gang of people needing the TWRP too. Anyone down?? (7876006741) that's my work number for phones and like minded things. So anyone down to start this new project let me know I'll hit up Ashyx when I get enough behind it. Thanks
Its looking like there is gonna be a flood of people now needing a TWRP for the Stylo 6 now there is a bootloader unlock & root-I myself being one. Start(if you wish) to post what you need & lets get this baby rollin'!!!
I tried to contact twrp them selves but like they say on their site they rarely respond and I've got no response, I've used Hovatek's twrp porter tool and I've not had any success. My discord group is nearly done with the V60 twrp and I might be able to get the developer working on that to build one. I've got no experience building a twrp myself or else I'd give it a shot, but being a mediatek device with a-b slot It will be more difficult than a regular custom recovery build.

You're quite the intellegent fella. Have you tried to make any custom TWRP recoveries for any mediatek based chip-ed devices? (almost typed chipset. )
At this point, I wouldn't even care if Stylo 6 ever got a TWRP. Outta give it a try to a custom one yourself and see if you can add a new feather in your cap, war-locked guitar man? (ok ok, will never make fun of the awesome name again. Old habits, never feed the trolls after midnight!)
Whoops, just ran across this after the comment from earlier. This answers my question, I retract my previous comments and questions. Wish you a good day, dude.
