Root Step by step recovery screen

[mroien]

Could someone please show me or send me a link to a step by step way to get clockworkmod for my recovery screen. I have tried a few bat files and no luck at all. Is there a long way that someone know of I know how to do that. I rooted and ran a recovery on my hero, but can't figure out how to do it on my epic.

Thanks

It's really simple... it's a one-click method. What can't you figure out? Just double-click it.

What you don't think I tried that? That's why I'm asking the one click didn't work smart guy.

I'm having the same problem as you. I just rooted my Epic tonight, installed the wifi tether which I got to work so that got rid of any doubts that I may have failed at rooting the phone.

I then installed Rom Manager and used the one click method to flash the latest clockwork recovery and tried to reboot into the custom recovery screen. I boot into the default Android recovery screen, where it looks like it attempts to install an update.zip file but fails due to failed verification or something similar.

Anyone have any idea what to do?

What wifi tether are you using? The one for the galaxy S for me say I have the wrong kernal so it won't run my wifi tether and I have tried to lastest one from the market and still nothing.

I'm using "Wireless Tether for Root Users" I'm still using the stock kernal. nowhere in any of the walkthroughs have i been instructed to install a custom kernal in order to use clockworkmod but I have tried to install the Phoenix kernal as I read someone say that clockworkmod required a custom kernal, but with no success.

I'm thinking I may have to unroot to stock and try again.

Same problem here. Got a few errors during root but I can run Ttanium Backup and have superuser. BUt when I try to install rom I get file authitication error at boot. Very frustrating.

 

[mroien]

Has anyone found a way to install the clockworkmod??

Just clarifying, but you tried BOTH parts of the one-click?

Yes I tried both of them and when I go to boot into recovery it just boots into the stock recovery and not into clockwork. Like said before there is a verification error when trying to install a new ROM.

Let's start at square one then and hope we can get everything sorted out for you.

You installed busybox and the samsung drivers?

I have the samsung drivers installed and just installed busybox from the market, but had it already from Titanium backup. When I boot into recovery it says E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted

If you could get all this to work for me I'd be very appreciative.

How are you trying to get into recovery?

USB debugging turned on?

I have tried getting into recovery both way through ROM manager and when the phone is off holding down the camera, volume down button and the power button.

 

[Kelmar]

USB Debugging on?

Are you pushing and holding the buttons until the recovery screen pops up?

Did the .bat files appear to have run ok?

No I could not install either of the .bat files to my phone but in ROM manager it says that I have the laster clockworkmod

I did all the steps a few time, but I don't have a install from SD just a apply sdcard:update.zip ran that and still the same error message. I cleared the cache and did a factory reset and nothing.

This is the screen I get when I run run-try-first and when I run run-try-last after I reboot adb it say device not found and my phone is plugged in and everything.

ok so i'm not the only one having a problem with this. i've tried everything to the letter. i know i'm rooted. i did the one click and the andromeda successfully, but everytime i try the clockwork it never takes. my phone will run through the whole thing even reboot and the whole nine but nothing. i get a message like the person above me. i've switched usb cables, usb ports, reboots on both phone and computer both together and separately. usb debugging is on and my sd card is unmounted. totally baffled

Have either of you posted this in the thread on XDA? The creator of this mod is a member there and would probably be the best one to assist.

 

[jr_mfn_p]

no sir i have not, but thanks i'll look into it.

 

[Kelmar]

It'd probably be your best/quickest solution

 

[nyfinest32]

im having the same clockword problems. any solutions yet?

 

[jr_mfn_p]

well went to sdx and a guy over there told me to to try reinstalling the drivers and trying to install clockwork again. I personally haven't tried it yet cause I haven't had the time. that was the only response i got so...
