Then get clockwork back on it and restore your image (if it works). If not, you'll be back to stock and can then go install a rom.
thanks for the quick response to my post - but check out the update that i just figured out

Hello - I'm new to clockwork. I am running Eugene's Ginger Clone ROM, rooted, and undid OCLF.
I downloaded ROM manager from the Market and installed. I noticed I now have an update.zip file on the internal SD. I rebooted into recovery - but when I click reinstall packages, I get this error:
Finding Update Package
Opening Update Package
Verifying Update Package
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation Aborted
What am I doing wrong? I am DYING to get Nero v2 flashed!
Any help is much appreciated!!
Thanks,
fF
on ROM MANAGER did you press FLASH CLOCK WORK RECOVERY? its the first option. YOU MUST HAVE THAT.
if it still doesn't work, on TITANIUM BACKUP, press menu, and click CREATE UPDATE.ZIP and it'll re-do it, but u'll need to re-flash clockwork recovery.

I did Flash Clockwork before the error as Galaxy S Vibrant. I flashed again same error.
I went ti Titanium, created update.zip and reflashed clockwork. Still getting the same error.
Any other ideas - or can I get an update.zip that's known working?
Thanks!

try re-downloading the ROM and try again..

IDK how to fix this besides ODIN back to stock, and then re-flash it.
I SUGGEST you just do odin because it'll erase everything and it might be a small bug in your system doing this.
I even tried older versions of clockwork. I don't think redownloading the ROM would help because I can't even get CW to start.
Strange damn thing.
I guess I'll odin back to stock.
Thanks

yeah it happens sometimes, and you need to ODIN once in a while so your ROMS ghosts don't stay back and haunt your newer roms.
Good Luck on it working.
Odin'ed back and had to reset phone. Bone stock and re-installed Clockwork. Did the reinstall packages and it rebooted this time and looks hung on Installing Multi-CSC. I guess that takes a while? Babysitting...

same here
Yes I'm having the exact same problem. I'm running nero beta 3 and I'm getting the can't verify signature error with clockwork. I've read elsewhere that this has something to do with having 3E recovery vs. 2E recovery, but I'm not entirely sure what that means. It sounds like we need to Odin back to a stock version to fix this problem, but can anyone tell us which one? Can someone provide a stock version that has the CWM with 2E? Or a better solution? It would be much appreciated, and thanks to funky for starting this thread.
I odin'ed back to T959UVJFD.tar
That wasn't enough so I wiped all user data via recovery mode. Re-installed Rom Manager - and now I'm on Nero v2.
I figured out the Installing Multi-CSC issue by reinstalling packages again.
Some things just take time I guess.
Thanks for the help guys!

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.
Scott
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,

Hi All-
I'm trying to install CM7 so I followed their guide on their wiki (which I can't link to since I'm a new user, but the page is Samsung_Fascinate:_Full_Update_Guide#Installing_th e_ClockworkMod_Recovery on the CM wiki).
Those steps worked fine, at step 8 the blue bar came across and the phone rebooted. No apparent errors in heimdall or the phone- but when I try to install the update.zip from my sd card, I end up at a screen "Android system recovery <3e>" and it says the Installation aborted because the signature verification failed. The folks in the cyanogenmod IRC channel said it's because I don't have CWM recovery installed.
So, I'm trying to figure out how to install CWM Recovery. Apparently the steps in the CM wiki don't work, and I've tried searching around on these forums but the posts are either out of data or appear to only work from windows machines. I'm running Ubuntu 64-bit. Can anyone help out?
Sorry if this has been discussed- I tried googling and searching these forums. Appreciate any help, thanks!
I've also tried following the steps for Windows now (from my Windows partition); same problem, CWM doesn't seem to be installed. Am i doing something wrong or is it a problem with my phone?
Finally resolved it by flashing back to stock Eclair, doing all the updates, then using Odin to flash CWM and then running the cm7 zip from within Recovery.
What a pain, but it's done!
Ok guys heres the deal....i recently got a samsung fascinate from my sister cause I couldnt mod my inc any more. ok so....i got the phone rooted. i have su perm. i downloaded rom manager and installed it. now heres my problem. i can preform a backup no problem, but when i go to restore that backup it boots into clockwordmod and begins and then get an error about erasing boot img. or something like that. can tell exactly if i get some help from this. also cant install custom roms like i can with my incredible. i know it can be done cause i see roms and all for this phone. can someone please please help me.
Thats because cwm3 will not perform nandroid restores on stock roms. You need to flash cwm 2.5.1.x red recovery. Its the best recovery imo for any bml(touchwiz) rom. Go over to my guide in general section and you cand find cwm 2.5 in section 2&5. Oh and ditch rom manager...manually install cwm via odin!
If you're coming from an incredible, also keep in mind you don't have to be rooted to flash roms either, you just have to have a custom recovery. There aren't really any modifications like rooting procedures, S-OFF, etc, required for rom flashing, just odin a recovery and flash your selected rom.
Hi
I am running a Stock LSD 4.1.2 JB Rom on my I9100 and do not wish to Root my phone. Yes it was rooted once but I have a specific reason for not wanting to revert back to root.
On a few occasions over the past year I have wanted to flash an app via "Recovery Mode", a .zip file located on the phone's external SD card.
On trying to flash, the following is displayed in yellow: -
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
I have searched and searched this and other forums and although I can find many many instances when this has ocurred with other people I have not yet seen a generic solution to this problem.
It must ocurr because of a certain situation being prevelant within my phone and the references to it on forums usually suggest they are because someone is messing with a Custom Rom and/or a Rooted Kernal etc etc.
Could someone please tell what is happening, why this is the case and what can be done to sort it please.
I would say that my phone is just over 18 months old, never has had a problem, has been flashed with "Stock Roms" quite a few times and all without wiping or restoring to the factory settings. I do not want to wipe it to sort this problem out and am hoping an easy fix is available.
Hope someone can help
ps - I am trying to install the 4.2 Camera via the patched.zip and have tried to install the "Temporary" Clockwork Recovery" app with exactly the same problem. I stress I do not want to Root.
Anyone please?

You need root access to flash apps or modify your system

Ermm, do not think so. Please review this thread before making wild comments like this: -

I know in some way though that you probably thought you were helping.
Surely this problem has a cause and a solution?

u have to first flash the 'Temporary CWM recovery .zip' then select 'reboot to recovery' option in stock recovery to enter 'temporary cwm recovery' there u select the 'Camera zip file' to flash.
PS- after flashing 'Temporary CWM recovery.zip' do not reboot ur phone the normal way by doing so u will lose ur temporary recovery.
each time before flashing any zip file u have to flash 'temporary cwm.zip' file first.
Hi thanks but I know this.
Can we get back to my topic please? I would not have posted if I could flash the Temp CWM Recovery. zip file
I just need to know what causes the error I am getting and how I can irradicate it.

As the error indicates, it fails to verify the file's signature. You can't flash unsigned packages via stock recovery. The solution is exactly what was already mentioned to you:either root and install a custom kernel/recovery (you don't want it, that's fine), or use a temporary custom (non-stock) recovery. While I had problems with the stock recovery flashing unsigned zips (obviously), I never had an issue with flashing a temp recovery. Try redownloading and reinstalling it - it could be a corrupt file. Which recovery are you trying to use? I recommend the temp touch CWM by Phil (the dev of the PhilZ kernel; use link in his signature). Always works like a charm.

Nice one! Thank you
It must have been a duff file (temp touch CWM by Phil) as the one I just downloaded, installed without a problem. It was the very same program file but from a different source.
Just installed the 4.2 Camera too so now going to play
Thank you again
