Read the stickies, search for them on your own and find them. Then read them and be sure you know what you're doing. You won't be spoon fed.

Though I won't be spoon feeding.. But I will give you a few pointers..
Generally Custom ROMs are installed using custom recoveries unless otherwise specified in the roms OP.. So either CWM or TWRP should be fine..
The error you get is either due to a bad download or so signature mismatch..
You will have to see what the error statement is.. There would be a number like Error 7 or something.. Check that number and do a Google search for what that means... You will get an idea.. Most probably it is a bad download.. Changing recoveries will not fix it..

He has a stock recovery from the E:/signature verification error. If he reads, he should be fine. Look at everyone that knows what they're doing, they read. Everyone makes mistakes, but you can lessen your chances by knowing what you're doing.

There is a whole thread titled "do not use rom manager". You can't use it on our phone. I've had it work with nightlies after getting cm7 up and running the normal way. Look in the twice weekly cm7 thread for the latest kang. Oh and search is your friend. Prepare to get flamed

I actually tried to install it normally without ROM manager first but it gave me the same error.
Try wiping ur phone again, flash another aokp rom, then wipe and flash cm7. I used shep's miui, it worked flawlessly http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314581

I just tried, I wiped the phone again, then tried to flash MIUI and it gave me 1 of the 2 errors
"E:signature verification failed"
I just read somewhere that my issue can be caused by the Kernel and that you have to flash a custom kernel that doesn't check for the file signature or something? anyone able to point me in the right direction for this?

nah.....i see you sittin there
you see, i know you are really angry at me...in fact uprobablymadbro, but the fact of the matter is....in the amount of time that it took you to write up this topic, wait for the answers to come, and probably still sit there waiting on someone to feed you, you could have read the sticky, and followed all the instructions on how to flash a rom properly on this phone....
but instead, you would rather lash out at people stating the obvious.....so good luck with your dilemma.

Well, just follow the exact instructions the developers give when you flash something And always make a Nandroid back up first.
Furthermore: check for which phone models the roms etc. are (I9100 or anything else you have), to avoid flashing something bad.
If you're afraid for the eMMC brickbug: read the threads that are made for it for info about that.
Sent from the Matrix
The emmc brick bug only happens on stock kernel when wipe data is selected just flash any other kernel before doing anything else and then your safe. Don't flash a ROM for any other phone including the i9100G double check before flash the file name is usually .............i9100
Honestly ? Don't flash anything in the first place. Leave your phone stock & enjoy using it.
If the thought of breaking it frightens you, leave it alone.
Nandriod backup can't save you from hard brick. RTFM (or thread) is the only safe path if you can't stop the hacking itch, and don't be a hero to be the first one to try something new like leaked ROM. Good luck.

Well, then use the other advices that are given to you
But there's always a risk, so in fact it's a matter of minimizing them. If you want be totally risk free, then you indeed have to leave it stock.

I have rooted my phone with fake recovery, i want to install a speedmod kernel. I have stock recovery. Is it needed to install manually cwm first?? @Hardcore is writing that cwm is included, but im not sure that its written into this kernel or i need to download the cwm too, but where? There is no link in the topic So all i need to flash the kernel through the stock recovery and i'll got cwm and speedmod and done or download cwm from somewhere first and flash kernel through the cwm?

[Q] Problem rooting I9100p galaxy s2!! PLEASE HELP

Hello! Like it says in the title I have a problem with rooting. All I did was to upgrade to official jelly bean. I searched for like 3 days continuously in French, German, English and all I have found was some info about what I should do. So I know that I have to flash a new CWM and that's probably why I can't flash ROMs. I get into Recovery mode, I select "apply update from external storage" and then it says with red : "E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)". I found another method, with adb, tried it and failed, it says can't read file or open it, I'm not sure. With odin I tried so much CWMs... I can't number them. None of them worked. So I'm asking you, I'm mad to upgrade my android, to flash cyanogenmod, and I can't. Please help!! And please tell me how I know what version of cwm I need? I mean it's from Baseband- I9100PXXLS8 or Build number-I9100PXXLSQ? Please help! And don't tell me to search please!
How do you not know about philz kernel. Link below... Pls read it and flash what is for you're model and not the i9100.

I'm sorry I didn't know I did this thread duplicated. Maybe I pushed post thread button two times. I'm sorry. About philz kernel I know it, I said I tried so many versions... none of them worked. So tell me how can I know the correct version? What I mean by that is I saw at philz kernel a code like xwlsp or xxlsj. How can I know the code for my phone? Thank you
Settings > about the phone > base band version
Inviato dal mio GT-I9100 utilizzando Tapatalk
Thanks I'll try to flash it when I come back to school. My baseband is I9100PXXLS8. I saw some cwms with xwls8. Is there a problem? There says is nothing if is xx or xw it doesn't matter. Is that so?
Baseband is irrelevant because it's the modem. You need the build number, which is the kernel.

Ok so my build number is JZO54K.I9100PXXLSQ. What cwm should I flash? With what code? Sorry I'm putting those noob questions
Look Peter, do what I did and read up on stuff for a week before you flash anything.Do you realise all the things that can go wrong with the phone.
It will be you that has a phone that doesnt work and how will that affect you?.

Hello. Last night I installed cwm for my phone. IT WORKED!! FINALLY!! Then I flashed the 10.1.3 RC2 CyanogenMod stable ROM and I was a bit scared because the android keyboard was failing continuously and I didn't know why. And then I remembered I flashed the 4.3 gapps. So I downloaded the gapps for 4.2.2 and now all works fine. No problem. SO HAPPY I FINALLY GOT A NEW ROM!! thank you to all guys that helped me. You could kick me out from the beginning but you were good with me i'm new here and i really apreciate that. Thank you!!
NOW look at efs/nand backups...

Thats how it looks now. Really proud about it. Ok but what does those backups do? I mean just do like a normal backupor is something more?
4.2.2? Why not 4.4.2 . It's much better
Bk up efs with ktool from playstore
Nandroid bk up. Make that in cwm recovery. These are a must for you to do tonight. :thumbup:
BTW its free to get ktool so don't skip backing up you're efs. Also take a COPY of that folder and put it on you're PC. Copy... Don't remove it or delete that folder.

Custom recovery for Flame (reference phone)

Hi,
i have two Flames from Mozilla. Unfortunately, they discontinued FxOS for phones, so i'm trying to create my own Android custom ROM for Flame. I cooked something with Android Kitchen, but when i try to install it on Flame through sideload, i see only error about package verification - i think that custom recovery can solve this and ignore signature. I tried to find TWRP for Flame, but nothing...
No way AFAIK
Maybe this one can help:
