I was having trouble after i upgraded to 2.2 froyo (from eugene's thread) with axura and blackfroyo skin. after i had trouble, i used odin to go back to 2.2 stock. after i did this, i wiped all user data and chached data and rebooted. now when i try to go to recovery and click on "re-install packages," i get the error of "E:can't open /sdcard/update.zip (no such file or directory) Installation aborted." what should i do and how do i fix this?
I would put my phone in download mode, Odin back to JFD and get a fresh run at it.
oh i got it! downloaded rom manager, flashed clockwork mod, then rebooted into recovery and it fixed it =)

So just when i think my phone is inbrickable and i have flashed like 7 roms. All types of kernels and im running macnut r13 with the ulf which i love by they way. All is well i have a **** load of nandroid backups and roms and kernels on my sd. Then i tried to flash a theme the black froyo theme which is not compatible atleast not with mine anyway. I flashed it and my phone would just boot into a black screen so i booted into recovery tried to flash a backup and nope nothing happens. Then i try to flash another rom and no go i forget what is was saying but noting is working. I tried a factory reset from ulf recovery and nothing there either. Anyone got any ideas or am i stuck using odin to head back to stock also is flashing back to stock going to wipe my sd internal or external.
When i try to restore it says restoring system fine then is says data.img not found skipping restore then it says android_secure.img not found skipping sd.ext not found skipping. Then is says cant open /cache/recovery/log and cant open CACHE:recovery/log any help would be great.
and when i try to install another rom it goes through the process then says failure at line 12: copy_dir package:data DATA: installation aborted.
Time to break out Odin. Just load up JFD, get your phone into download mode and let Odin do it's thing. This way you get a fresh start. From there reroot and install anything you wish.
I was trying to install Bionix-V today, coming from Axura 2.1-2.2. I entered the recovery mode and fooled around there trying to install the ROM.
When I do "install zip from sdcard" and choose "bionix-v-voodoo.zip," the installation gets interrupted saying
"E: Failure at line 13:
copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:
Installation Aborted."
Right now I cannot boot Axura, however I can boot to recovery mode.
What should I do?
Odin back to stock sir and you should be good to go...

Okay, I did a restore and was able to boot into my older Auxra ROM.
Now, what do I do exactly in order to install Bionix-V? What's ODIN?
Pretty sure I helped someone with this same issue...it was a bad d/l of bionix. Try to redownload it

its soft brick not possible brick pP and you should rom manager back to whatever you had before and redownload broken zip with new rom and reinstall that rom again .
try installing the ROM from ROM Manager should work and I didn't even disable voodoo before flashing bionix 5 over axura.
I just rooted the phone, and installed the clockwork mod, using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788099, did everything correctly the only difference was that my phone did not reboot (at least I don't remember that it did, I believe I just had to turn it on myself). Anyway, I then installed rom manager and "flashed clockwork recovery". I later tried to "reboot into recovery" through Rom Manager and when it booted through the stock recovery (2e) It displayed the following "failed to verify whole-file signature" and it said some other crap. What should I do? My phone is running stock OTA 2.1 ea28 and I want to put EB01 or something of that nature. Help me please.
update: i just uninstalled Rom Manager, i just read that its not always compatible and creates problems...what should i do now? should i use odin again to reinstall clockwork?
Dont use ROM Manager, its not 100% fascinate friendly check out my guide @ androod development. Dl cwm in step 8 and flash it with odin
ok i just flashed it with odin using your file, but since I don't have rom manager anymore how do i access clockwork recovery, (in other words how do i flash roms now)?
you can boot into recovery for holding down the up and down volume buttons while it powers up, until the samsung logo appears. then choose "install zip from sd card".

it takes me to stock recovery(2e) and there is no option there to "install zip from sd card"...I'm confused...am i missing something?

xHoLyx, just tried applying the file you just gave me (I placed it on the sd card) through stock recovery and I get: E:failed to verify whole-file signature and E:signature verification failed. What should I do now?

Follow the steps.
yeah dude, you got it. you can flash any ROM of your choice.
But before doing it, go into Recovery mode and ALWAYS wipe Data(unless told not necessary), cache, Dalvik(find this in Advance)..!!!
Press "Thx" button and please leave post in my guide so others will know it works.
thanks a bunch! i don't know what i'd be doing if it wasn't for your help. running froyo now. thanks!!

Rocking Frankenclean 2.9.2 Voodoo/EC10+Sound/Nitro Ultra Honeycomb v3.1/XDA Premium
Hello all,
Let me first start off by explaining my problem:
So I was rooted to begin with and was running superclean 2.92vooodoo with a oc kernel. For some reason my phone wouldnt start so I ended up resetting it to the original 2.1 eclair (Kill me!).
Ok, so I have superuser access, but can't get the right clockwork recovery in there to flash over a new rom. It says I am on rom manager 3.0 whatever, I try to install 2.5 or whatever the one that I had working and it says "Could not download, try later" The other problem is that my recovery is still blue (when I boot into recovery, instead of red.) When I try to install update.zip or anything that would help it. I get the response
"E: Failed to verify whole-file signature. E: Signature verification failed installation aborted."
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Do not use Rom Manager for anything in here. You will need to flash CWM 2. through Odin.
Yup CWM ALL will do the trick through ODIN

Thank you so much guys, I was up till 4am trying to figure this out, i had that file downloaded and thought i was trying to flash it through odin but i think since rom manager was installed it was messing things up,
Thanks a lot for the help,

Trying to install clockworkmod but I have 3e recovery. I did it through rom manager which was a nub mistake but I didn't know 3e was going to troll me. So it says:
e:failed to verify whole file signature
e:signature verification failed samsung "3e"
I then followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16909269&postcount=12
and tried the Speedmod kernel to get rid of 3e like the person said but that rom is for the international version and now I can't connect to verizon.
So at the point I am thinking using Odin is my only option but all roms are .zip and not .tar. I am clueless as what I can do. Please help me.
So I tried the Odin method in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026746 and flashed the pit and stock 2.1 files. It passed with green in odin but when I put the battery back in it boots into 2e but says # Manual Mode # at the bottom. I am not sure if that means the flash didn't actually work or what. I am lost now.
Thought I'd update this thread since I finally fixed the problem and sucessfully put Cyanogenmod7 without using the stupid Rom Manager after about 8 hours of work. So just in case someone wants to know what I did. For some reason Odin was not working so I used Heimdall v1.83 and the EB01 Heimdall package and sucessfully flashed to froyo 2.2. I mounted the sdcard and put Cyanogenmod7 and gapps on it.
Now I used Odin to flash the CM7 capable CWM (I think its version 4). Booted the phone into download mode and then used jt1134's ClockworkMod Recovery found in the CM7 fascinate wiki. The wiki says use Heimdall but I used Odin and it worked. The CWM is now blue instead of Red. Next I did a wipe data/factory reset along with wipe cache partition. I selected install zip from scard and choose the CM 7.1 package. Everything went well and it boots into CM7. NOW TO INSTALL THE GAPPS. I thought I just boot into CMW using the volume buttons and power button BUT NO that is NOT correct. In CM7 you have to hold the power button and press reboot and then select recovery AND THEN IN THAT CWM select install zip from sdcard (choose gapps). THIS IS IMPORTANT OR ELSE GAPPS WONT INSTALL. I was bummed for like another hour.
So there it is how to install CM7 just when you think you have been to hell and back with the fascinate. Never again am I volunteering myself to help root and install CM7 on a friend's fascinate. The droid incredible was soo easy!
