I tried using all the steps about copying the Update.zip file to sdcard, it didnt work. Error message came when reinstalling packages is (Invalid Signature) in the recovery menu.
I tried z4root, didn's work either.
I am helpless.

I can help you
superoneclick. that is all
Careful!
SuperoneClick does it!
Careful with rooting my friend. I got a Galaxy S bricked within 1 week, hard bricked.
Do you have android 2.2 or 2.1 and do you have usb debugging enabled?

Have you tried using the toolbox?
root
Just find z4 root app install and it will root you.
I installed super one click. Its done!
But, I installed ROM Manager and cant flash it.
Did you open rom manager and hit the top tab and pick vibrant?
Its probably because you have 3e recovery! The easiest way is to flash back to 2.1 eclar, use z4root then flash CWM with rom manager thats how I did it

So I've was running team whiskeys bionic v 1.3 rom but after noticing some lag I decided to start from scratch and reinstall it. I disabled voodoo and flashed stock rom with Odin. Everything went well. Now here's my problem, I put my phone into recovery so that I can root it. But when I click "reinstall packages" I'm taken to the "clockwork recovery menu" (even though rommanager isnt installed). I try to install the the update.zip file from there (it works) but when my phone reboots, the super user app isn't installed and my phone still isn't rooted. Please help.
Are you going to try and flash a new rom or are you going to just root your phone and stick with the stock rom
Rom manager creates a update.zip file on your sd card that is the cw recovery update.zip If you want to root your phone using the update.zip method you have to delete the cw recovery update.zip file 1st
If you are going to flash a new rom then you don't have to root your phone just flash a new rom thru cw recovery and all the roms come rooted already
It is my understanding that the update.zip isn't a full root. Not sure how that works out...
Here is what i do. After u load the update.zip use the 3 button method to load whichever TW rom u want to use (I have bionix 1.3.1 and love it). This will give u full root access. This is what I do every time I load a new rom.
U should consider hitting up the TW crew on their IRC. They are great with help.

Hey guys thanks for ur help! Phones is now rooted and running bionix v 1.3.1 without problems. So basically all I did was a hard reset after flashing stock odin and then I just formatted the internal sd card which deleted all traces of ce recovery. Yes.it deleted everything else but I wanted to start from scratch anyways.
lOL MAYBE fixing permissions and installin root (superuser option in advance menu of recovery) form clockwork recovery WAS A EASIER OPTION ? but hey u got it anyway
I don't know if this is exactly the same issue you or not, but I did flash to stock rom (KB1), and now unable to root myself. I've used the superoneclick and still nothing happens. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Yep I sure did, still wouldn't work. I'm kinda scared to try a different one, i dont want to have to spend 150 dollars to get a new phone.
What exactly happens when you try to root with superoneclick?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
It goes through the norm and completes like norm, but when I look for superuser its not there
Well the way I got it to work was after flashing odin, I just formatted the phones internal sd card. After that I just placed the update.zip file into the sd card rebooted into stock recovery and installed the file.

Hello all, I'm hoping I can get some help. I cannot get passed stock recovery to Clockwork recovery. I am rooted and have done this many times so I know that you have to reinstall packages to get there, sometimes twice, but I have done it repeatedly and it keeps going back to stock recovery. Any ideas?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Maybe install ROM Manager and reflash the ClockworkMod Recovery?
You may need to check if you are indeed rooted check by manually going into Download mode, if that works you may need to reflash CWM, if not then you may need to reroot the phone
I've tried going though rom manager and it takes me to the same stock recovery. Reinstalling packages isn't working. I used Odin, went back to stock, used samsung kies mini to update to Froyo, Super one click root, and then 3e recovery. I'm not sure if I'm musing something but I've fine all of this before and had no issues until now.

I'm also having a problem with this, but it didn't start until after I flashed CM7 for Vibrant. Now the i9000 boot up goes before the Vibrant one, as well as not being able to get into CMW.
I finally got into recovery, had to reinstall packages about 45 times. Thanks for the help anyway

I flashed the alien rom last night and after I did that I wanted to flash the new theme so I went to the recovery mode but it wouldn't go so I went to check superuser and it said you do not have root. So my question is what do I have to do to get root back so I can flash the theme?
I don't know If it's the same for the atrix, but when I lose root on my inspire , I go into rom manager and flash superuser. Go to download rom and its in the extras tab

I can't uninstall superuser I can't flash another version from rom manager or can't uninstall from root explorer cause it says you have to have root access to do so. So what do I do root it again on my computer using fastboot it will that be a problem

Same thing happened to me yesterday when I went from GB to Alien 4. Only way to fix it was to re-root the phone.
Works perfect now that I re-rooted and restored the apps/data with Titanium Backup.

Try downloading the su from the market, maybe the one saved to ur phone is outdated and not recognized. Worth a try.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Su is useless because they phone is not rooted.
Okay so then what?
I rooted my device and unlocked it and then used tenfar's recovery to boot into recovery and flash alien like its suppose to. Then I get to the home screen and I lost root (no surprise 2nd time) should I reroot and then install the theme. Because it looks like I have the rom on my phone.
Please help me!

did you reroot and then flash theme.zip?

I was saying it may have the file path setup without the apk superuser. Alien should be rooted, I am on build 4.

I just started rooting my phone, and in one of the tutorials, it says to find ROM Manager from the Market.
I search it up, and don't find it at all.
I looked up ways to install it, such as AppBrain (says it could not be found when I tried installing).
Any other way to find and install this app?
You can probably get it on
www.4shared.com
You don't need it though, there is an update.zip you can flash in stock recovery to get cwm recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9375927

Hi, i have a Motorola Photon i Already Root the cellphone Works good then i download RomManager and then download miui rom and using rommanager I flash the cellphone by the option the rommanager have and try to boot into Recovery to install another Rom(miui) and every time i reboot into recovery it gave me and error or reboot into the normal Recovery the System Recovery 3e
is there is anyway i could install the Rom without the SDK.
Thank you
Google "root Motorola photon without a computer". You'll need to find photon-torpedo in the travels, but it's not hard. The files needed for computer root and Shabby's AIO root did nothing for me. I can look up the info if you need. It's pretty easy, just takes a few minutes.

Actually the phone is already rooted problem is when I'm trying to reset into recovery the options are pretty small to choose... So I'm thinking I need to unlock the bootloader because I can't work with the option listed in the recovery mod o3 something that came with the mot–photon, I'll try to upload a pic so you could have an idea
