Hi Guys
I've got VillainsRom 1.1 installed, which was installed using Odin, I'm now trying to update to v1.4, but the file is in a .zip format, rather than the MD5 used by Odin. So I'm trying to install it using Rom Manager, but when it reboots into the install mode, it displays a message saying "Unable to verify".. Any clues on how to fix this?
Hi
Try unzip the file...in there you will find what you are looking for (md5 file)

why are you using rom manager? best to just reboot into recovery(I take it you have rooted via cf-root?) and flash it from there.
And don't ask questions in Development.

Please follow instructions in the thread. Do NOT use rom manager. You should install via CF-Root as guided

Just wait a sec
What do you mean with downloading
where do u try to flash the rom
via recovery odin or adb?
In general those error messages appear if there went something wrong with the signing procedure
this often happens with custom roms
Chances are a bad download, as above re download and try again before doing anything else

The zip file isn't recognized by the Rom I am using or recovery. I guess I should flash a Rom with fastboot: fastboot flash zip rom.zip.
I don't get it! I have flashed a stock Rom and these errors appear out of nowhere!? I guess I may have to format my sdcard.
Could it be a problem with sdcard partitioning?

How am I meant to return to stock now?
I have voided my warranty with HTCDev and now I can't use any ruu's at all, in case it does not work and my phone gets messed up.
I just had the same error... formating 3 different SD cards didn't work.
I couldn't do restore.
I couldn't use the rom I had installed a few month ago
It didn't make a difference the zip was downloaded by Internet Explorer or Chrome
Solution:The minute I installed a new version (i guess re-installing would work as well) of CWM it stopped giving that error.
no luck
No luck... Nothing works from here... I still get cant open (rom name) zip (bad) ... Any other advices?
I am v6 supercharged and i have riskey kernel 1.5 with stock rom. And btw samsung galaxy pocket

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Player 3.6 stuck on "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen
Today I ran into a serious problem. I was trying to flash the rooted ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1864741 : I have the US Version) using odin, and I followed all the steps. While doing it, Odin said it had failed, then I got the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen on my player. I can't enter download mode and my computer doesn't recognize it. The few times it does, it just says "Connecting.." in Kies and won't go past that. I've looked everywhere and couldn't find anything that works. Is there anything I can do? I feel like its just a soft brick but I really don't know. Please help.

Hello, I had that too
Follow these steps to unbrick your device:
1. Take the battery out of the device and wait a few seconds
2. Put the battery back in the device and wait a few seconds, again
3. Boot into Download Mode -> It will say "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select...." again. Ignore that!!!
4. If you haven't done it yet, download the stock ROM (Kernel and ROM) for the 3.6 US here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864741
5. Start Odin and select the tar-file from the stock ROM in the PDA section
6. Connect your Player, wait until the device is recognized...
7. Flash!
8. Disconnect it, and reboot
If this solved your problem -> Put "[SOLVED]" in your title
If not -> PM me!
Good luck, MrBrubble

Well. That's what I did that allowed me to get into download mode. The problem is it only got to 54% and then said it failed. My galaxy player booted into android recovery but it had a bunch of errors and I couldn't really do anything.

Well, the file uploaded successfully, but it still booted into the android recovery with all the errors. I'm not sure I have the right file or I don't have all the files I need
Update: I flashed the US version kernel found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2198234) and I got into CWM recovery. I don't know what to do from there though.

When you go into advanced, select show log and can you send me the output? Thanks.
In your situation, If you're loading attns stock ROM, you need to load his kernel as well.
And that ROM only works in Odin, no idea why it won't work in heimdall, but it won't.

If you are using single file in pda make sure "re-partition"is NOT checked.
If single file fails look for multi files with pit and try. If therer is pit filr re-partition will automatically be checked. Cheers
Hi,
I recently tried installing a new rom on my Samsung Galaxy SII i9100 with Lineage 14.1. The installing failed as there was a problem with some signature I didn't have.
I have since then tried flashing CWM recovery, multiple different stock roms via Odin, samsung kies firmware upgrade, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache yet nothing is working.
When I flash with Odin, everything flashes fine but after, when I try switching my phone on, the phone gets stuck in a bootloop. I can access recovery and download mode fine but cannot load my phone.
Please help as this is my main phone.:crying:

Hi again. After I finished flashing via Odin, the phone rebooted into the screenshot below. I didn't know where to type the code so I rebooted system and the phone returned into a bootloop. Any ideas?
Did you use the pit file u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit from the archive for Odin?
Do it again in Odin with the pit file u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit
Put everything in Odin like on the screenshot!
