hello, I have noticed that when you install rom manager and flash CWM with it, It makes the sch-i905 (SGT LTE) go into bootloop. I believe this is because the one that rom manager flashed was for wifi only... can someone explain to me how to possibly flash a clockworkmod recovery to stop the boot loop? or am I wrong and there's something else I have to do? Thanks for all the help in advance.
ROM manager isn't all encompassing when it comes to supporting the flashing of various ROMs and recoveries on all Android devices so what you're finding is what others already know; it doesn't support the GT 10.1 models well.
About the only reason I'd use ROM manager on my tablet would be to run the fix permissions from within the OS itself. Instead though, I just do it in CWM and I do not have ROM manager installed.
Dump ROM manager on the tab and use the latest CWM that pershoot distributed instead:

There's a link to his blog site in the original post in that thread. Download links for your tab version (SCH-i905) are there as are instructions for using Odin to flash it.
The app itself doesn't direct the files properly on where it needs to be pasted

It seems CF-Root v4.1 is the bees-knees when it comes to rooting the Galaxy S II, but unfortunately it is not ROM Manager compatible.
Is there an up to date method to root the SGSII that works with Rom Manager? I found this link: http://www.inspiredgeek.com/2011/04...ng-odin-and-superoneclick-step-by-step-guide/ but I suspect there may be a newer method.
Here are my phone details, just in case:
Android version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: I9100XXKE7
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF3-CL276555
bump......
Why don't you just install ROM Manager, then download latest clockwork recovery using ROM Manager?
It will then be ROM Manager compatible.
Because I need to attain root before I can flash clockworkmod. ROM Manager says "An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands"
I'm on the original galaxy and the easiest way I've found to root is to use odin or hemindall to flash a kernel with cwm. It roots and gives cwm in one action. Also theres a new super one click that I've had success with on many different brands of phones, hts, lg, moto

What I meant is, why don't you just flash CF-Kernel, then install ROM manager, then use that to install clockwork recovery.
There is a confusion that rom manager is not compatible with the kernel. That part is not true, rom manager is not compatible with the clockwork recovery that is supplied by the kernel, you just use the clockwork recovery that can be installed with rom manager. The cwm app is not compatible with the recovery installed by rom manager.
Flash codeworkx kernel, root it, and run rom manager to your hearts content.
I'm having this issue too.
I've spent most of the day trying different things.
Regardless of how I root, and what rom and kernel provides the base when I try and update cwm through rom manager then try and reboot into recovery through rom manager I get the failed to verify error.
I've rooted with the chainfire root, with codeworx kernal and then superone click, and it's made no difference.
I've also tried it from rooted stock firmwares, and custom roms.
Still cannot boot into recovery from rom manager.
I've also noticed that despite rom manager saying that I'm using the latest version, when I manually boot into cwm it shows the previous version.
edit: I even went back to stock and rooted using link in first post, then installed rom manager but same error.
Keeps going to 3e system recovery
God it's annoying
Further googling has led me to believe the issue is rom managers not being compatible with 3e recovery.
Apparently we need to have 2e recovery.
Any way to get that?
edit: Or can we disable signature verification in cwm?
re-edit: Well I found this in the cf root thread which will explain why I will never get rom manager to work
CF-Root includes a custom version of CWM4. I always make custom versions, as the originals often do not take some Samsung specific things into account.
CF-Root/CWM4 is NOT compatible with ROM Manager! Manage/perform your backup/restores from CWM directly or using the CWM Manager application included with CF-Root
Where is the standard version then?

Codeworx said himself that his kernel won't work with rom manager.
If anyone is able to install roms through rom manager I'd like to know what rom, kernal, and how they rooted.

Haven't read that thread but i thought that was the whole point of his kernel, oh well.
Well I finally found a fix.
This time I can boot into recovery from rom manager.
No more failed to verify errors
What you need is this version of clockwork recovery

Flash it with odin, then use superoneclick version 1.95.
When I try to download the ROM from ROM manager, it tells me that I need install Clockworkmod Recovery, but when I pressed install, it came up with a Confirm Phone Model page which does not have Galaxy 5 as a option. So I am now just stuck here, what should I do, or is the free version of ROM manager pure not very useful?

did you root your phone?
what rom are you actually using?
did you try to update Rom Manager to an earlier version?
I assume your phone is rooted already. Don't continue if it's not.
I thought there was an official one released for the phone. Are you using the newest version of ROM Manager?
If yes, and our phone model is still not listed, then you'll need to install Clockworkmod Recovery by following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151396
It involves downloading a program called ODIN. You need to flash (transfer) the Clockworkmod file to your phone through USB. It's all in the thread above.
I had the same problem - installing the latest Rom Manager (free version) from the store didn't have Galaxy5 listed as a ClockworkMod possibility.
I flashed the whole thing by hand with ODIN and installed CyanogenMod - and presto; the version supplied with it had Galaxy5 support and I had no problem doing the "read only partition" installation.
Rom Manager is pretty crappy anyway - I prefer manual installation over it...
DO NOT - i repeat - DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER.
Theres no compatible version of CWMR it does offer. Flashing any of the other versions, which are made for other phones, might brick your device to the state that Im currently trying to revert (d/l mode only, but seemingly unflashable).

Why did you say that??? If the phone is rooted you can download CWM by RomManager without fear.. the important is that when the popup with phones versions come up, you choose only - ONLY! - Galaxy 5 voice! If this voice is not present into the popup, don't choose nothing at all! Choosing another phone might brick yours!
I downloaded and installed and even only update CWM by RomManager a lot of times and everything was always fine! No problem at all!!
You cannot scare people for nothing: your problems are not bug or issues, but only YOUR problems! and YOUR errors!!!
So, boyz, don't worry installing CWM by RomManager.. but remember to choose only Galaxy 5 voice, no other phone, 'cause you could brick your phone selecting a CWM that is not compatible with our GT-I5500..
Is it possible to install CWM on Galaxy Tab 10.1 without the help of ODIN? Can one simply install ODIN through the recovery mode for GT 10.1?
Are there any tutorials available online? I searched, but could not find any.
Use an update.zip to root it (find it in a sticky at the dev section), install rom manager from market, and flash cwm from there. When I did that though, my wifi module became corrupted somehow and a factory reset fixed the problem.
Btw: I have a 7500. Don't know if the update.zip works in other models, but it should. Read the thread carefully!!
EDIT: Search the dev section for a thread by Lorddeff07.

I recall reading somewhere that installing the CWM recovery rom included with Rom Manager (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager) on a YP-G70 (USA 5.0) results in 'bad things'
My questions:
Is this true? Will it make a mess of my device that's a headache to fix?
What is it about that version of CWM that causes the problems?
1. I've seen people have problems when the flashed CWM intened for another device.
2. Every CWM seems to be custom made so another CWM won't work on our players
There is no "official" CWM for player 4.0, 5.0... ROM Manager is useless (unless you want to use it to easily boot in recovery once you have CWM). You'll need to flash a custom kernel in the dev section that includes a modified version of CWM to work with our players.
Thanks Chris. I'd already flashed Entropy's CWM release so no problems there. I was just hoping Rom Manager's might work, so I could do some that stuff without rebooting (at least until after I've told it what I want to do. Non-touch interfaces are sooo low class, don't you know?)
Yes, I did read other posts before posting myself, and I still have no clue what to do.
I have CWM v5 something, along with an associated SuperSU I have installed onto my phone.
I have the newest CVM 6.0.3.1 version .img file installed from their website.
What do I do now?
ROM Manager doesn't work, as my device is not listed.
I don't know where my /sdcard/ folder is located so I can't drop the .img file into that folder, and can't use a line of code for the terminal emulator.
Help!!

You should be able to use the same method as you did when you first installed CWM, do you remember how you got the rom manager up originally? Did you flash it over usb (fastboot method)?
What phone btw?
Fixed it
Tried a bunch of methods,
Went into GS3 Toolkit and got a new-ish version of CWM (6.0.2 something, not the newest 6.0.3.1).
Regardless, this was an upgrade from my 5.x.x.x version, which allowed me to install the stable build of CM 10.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-I747m with Rogers.
People should really create tar files from the img files.. but anyways, i got it !
