It would be really cool if you responded to the multiple questions about the error message we are receiving (signature...install aborted, etc.)
Also, for the recovery file change you should make sure the permissions of the new file match the one you're replacing. That would be helpful for people to know.
@TheVerveIndex Sorry about not getting back to some people i have been really busy. But i will try to get to most of the people. I make most of my videos to be very user friendly & not sure why most people run into these problems. Thanks for the response!
@Rammstein874 Thanks for doing the videos - I'm sure most of us appreciate it a lot. It's just that this one error that so many people have is never resolved/answered. I've searched the internet and it's the same everywhere: people run into this error, they ask for help...and nothing. Weird.
Great video but I wanted to post that this method will not work if you're running a GB ROM like the latest AT&T update. You'll need to use ODIN to flash a kernel with CWM already in it.
For those who use ES file manager, if you get stuck on the samsung logo screen when you reboot to recovery its coz you have not made the permissions of your new recovery file the same as the recovery.old.
Flash to Stock using Odin
Re-root
do this stuff again, but be sure to note down the permissions and manually apply them to the new recovery file.
Excellent videos man...Well explained! What would be the reason I do not have a recovery file in \system\bin ? I am trying to do the 3e recovery... this file is not there :-/
I was told you had to check that the permissions on the new Recovery are the same as the old Recovery. I noticed you never altered the new Recovery permissions. Is this something important or is it not true. Even though you never altered the permissions on the new Recovery you were still able to Boot into ClockWorkMod Recovery. After watching your video I'm assuming either way doesn't seem to matter but would altering the permissions be a safer way to do this. Your Opinion?
omg u are helping sooooo much, so many ppl dont detail things for the noobs! But im having an issue. after i rename my recovery file (recovery.old) i try to paste the new recovery and it says a recovery file already exists, do u wish to overwrite it? i went ahead and said yes but there was an error and it didnt overwrite. so even tho it'll show a successfully name changed recovery file, once i try to paste the new one, the recovery.old file is now again just labeled recovery. do u know y?
i download it from the file listed and it doesnt shop up like it did on yours,i have the phone rooted ,also root explorer, for some reason when i open the file it shows file o 1 2 little confused here
so i seriously just spent 4 bucks on a app i cant use cause the button at the top to mount as R/W doesnt work..... any help would be appreciated so i can get this shit done.....
hey bro, i hope you read this post. i'm stuck on the samsung logo screen and it is frozen no matter what i try. any help would be very helpful. my phone is rooted, have root explorer and rom manager. can't get into my phone to access any of my apps. help............................
@chewmymangum Well i read your post. Only thing i can think of is that you did not put the recovery file in the right spot. Doing this will not let recovery work right
In case you're still having the issue, I had the exact same thing happen to an Infuse I was trying to install a custom ROM on. Apparently Google won't let me post links, but do a search for "How To Unbrick Samsung Infuse 4G And Fix Partition" and follow the link for the "addictivetips" website. The instructions there worked for me, but it returns your phone to stock so you will have to root it again after do this. Good luck.
@chewmymangum k what u need to do is a odin restore full look it up u will find it that the only way so dont panic there is a way out of this it just happend to me to
You need to unbrick your phone. Google it. It's a combination of Odin3, original rom and pressing the bottom volume key at the boot screen.... it's very easy.
When i first went into the computer folders on my laptop i went into the internal storage not the sd and accidentally removed the recovery file that was in there. I assumed i had put it there from the downloaded one, was that an original needed to be there to be overwritten? perhaps this is why i am receiving this error? I put the new recovery in the system folder and followed your video perfectly i am still stuck. Phone boots fine and runs, I am rooted.
I'm screwed!!! I followed your video to the letter- got to the part where you test recovery and boot into recovery screen. Mine is hanging on the samsung screen. Won't get past it. Can you help? Thanks Kathy
i installed the 3e recovery as shown, rebooted the phone and attempted to go into recovery ... got the same old four option screen ... didn't proceed further because I didn't want to lock up the phone ...
so i have already done this and installed miui. i tried to download rom manager to try out another rom and now clockwork mod doesn't work it just freezes on Samsung logo, but i can still boot normally. any suggestion. i really don't want to go back to stock and redo all this
@ochoa8394 Well i too also have Miui on my phone & you should not have to install CWM when you install Miui it installs CWM on its own you might need to start over! & dont use rom manager only if needed
way to go man,EXACTLY what i was looking for ..very helpful ..only thing was the camera was pretty shaky,but other then that minor thing,everything else was perfect..please create more of the infuse man.i will be rooting for ya lol. ;)-
Thanks for the video man. I really appreciate it. I've got it on my phone now and I'm flashing the bionix infinity rom to it. Again, I really appreciate your help with the modified 3e recovery. It was stalling me big time as far as flashing any rom's.
Awesome video, but I'm having one issue. When I go to "My Computer" ...my phone isn't showing up in there, either is my SD Card. I know my computer is reading that my phone is connected, because I just rooted it. Do you know why'd it do this??
you're the best! i've read the guide like twenty times on google, but i never knew what a "root explorer" was.. well i knew what it is for computers but never knew that there was literally an app called that. anyways, YOUR GUIDE = 5 STAR. perfecto'!
Video was awesome. Followed it step by step. Worked just fine. No issues whatsoever. Glad someone is taking the time to make how to videos for this phone. Keep up the good work.
I JUST WATCHED YOUR VIDEO AND IT SEEMS AS THOUGH YOU RAN INTO THE SAME PROBLEM I DID WHEN INSTALLING THE CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY, THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS WHEN I SELECTED REINSTALL PACKAGES, IT KEEPS GIVING ME AN ERROR MESSAGE OVER AND OVER AGAIN SAYING :"SIGNATURE VERIFICATION FAILED, INSTALLATION ABORTED".
Oh my GOD! THANK YOU!!!
3e Recovery is..a...bitch! :/
GREAT video man! thank you very much!
