[Q] Signature Verification Failure

Sorry Guys... I need a little help here. ...
Working with a new Epic 4g.
I ran the one-click root and got it to work .. however whenever i try install a ROM i get and error that says "Signature Verification Failure".
The process i used was to copy downloaded ROM to the SD Card root and rename them to update.
Is there something else i should be doing in addition to or instead of what i've done? Thanks

Try it without renaming the file. I've seen this before and I fixed.it by taking.the. zip off cause my file was. Zip.zip. just select choose zip from SD card. Just a suggestion. Also if you start to get a couple different rom's on your phone all named update.zip how do you know what is what.

Sounds like your using the newest clockwork 3 and trying to flash a non cw3 compatible rom. If that's the case you need to run a root program that still has cw2 in it and it will change it.

First off. You should be posting this in the QA section and not in the development section.
What it looks like doing is trying to flash a custom rom in clockwork using either "apply update from sdcard" or "apply /sdcard/update.zip." Neither will work with a custom rom because it requires a signature from Sprint or Samsung. What you need to do in recovery is "Install zip from SDcard" followed by "choose zip from sdcard" then select the zip you're try to flash.

ROM manager don't want to start new ROM

THIS POST IS COPY/PASTE FROM "DESIRE ANDROID DEVELOPMENT"...I THINK THIS IS RIGHT PLACE FOR THIS POST PERHAPS...
Hi there got some problems with ROM manager (latest version from Market)...
I put new LeeDroid on my SD card and when start ROM manager goes to "Install rom from sd card" RM asked me for directory and I "tell" him where the ROM is...when I tap on LeeDroid (.zip) ask me for ROM Pre-installation and I tick both options - OK - press Reboot into Clockwork Recovery and continue the installation. I press OK and nothing happened then
Then tried with untick both options - same thing...
Then I try Reboot into Recovery options and nothing happened again
Then download CyanogenMod 6.1.1. from ROM manager - same thing...nothing happened
But when I Reboot into Recovery mod (Hot reboot app) reboot was successfull and I was making System backup....
What is going wrong there
Please help me
Clockwork mode is 2.5.0.7.
P.S.
Sorry if my english is poor

If the ROM Manager is giving you problems, just install your ROM from the recovery menu

Ok...I'll try now
It's going on......and finished
What now?? Nothing happened after that....I have to put the battery out or what?
I was put the battery out and then start device...i'm in AlphaRev Recovery now and when press "Reboot system now" nothing happened??

You mean you have installed Leedroid from your SD card in Recovery?
Once successfully installed, you don't need to pull out your battery, you just need to find the option in your recovery to restart OR boot up your system.

PLEASE HELP ANYONE!
Finally
Reboot to fastbot was my option and then reboot

you should be selecting [choose .zip from card], then navigate to whatever you named your Leedroid zip.
After this installs and completes, select the option to reboot system, and you're good to go.

I wrote it in a post above
But thanks

Got new problem now...unbelivable...
Put LeeDriod on the device and don't like it....and want to back to my stock 2.2 backup...
But when in Recovery mod put Restore...said MD5 mismatch...and try again but now said: E: failed to seek in /cache/update.zip (invalid argument)
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
But how?? I was recover once today successfully...what's goin' wrong?

md5 mismatch could mean that the recovery is corrupted?
try turning signature verification off in your recovery to try to fix your signature verification failed problem.
OR try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114
But I have to ask, when you did you make that backup of that stock 2.2?

I don't really understand what you asked me
I found on xda forum 2.2 stock ROM (rooted) and put it on my phone and fixed all my problems

I recently installed LeeDroId using CWR.
Steps i followed >
1. Download LeeDroId onto SD card.
2. Boot into Recovery
3. BACKUP EXISTING ROM
4. Wipe old rom
5. Install LeeDroId, by navigating to the zip file
6. Reboot once installed
7. WAIT. 1st boot takes about 4 mins.
Done
That worked for me.

[q] help please! Rom

Hi,
I've rooted my HTC Desire HD and cuz i want to have louder volume.
The program "Louder Volume Hack 4.0" says that i need an custom rom installed so i tried to install it.
I putted the rom (.zip file) on my sd and did this:
I've got Clockmodrecovery on my DHD
- ROM Manager
- Reboot into recovery
- Recovery, Open update.zip or somethin like that.
Than i get the error: "Invalid Operation" and the DHD reboots.
Could someone help me please?
I also use the ENG S-OFF program anywhere here on the forum, dont know the exact name anymore lol.
Thanks!

You have to choose "install zip from sd" and then "choose zip from sd"

I don't see that option? The only options i see are:
- Reboot system now
- Apply sdcard:update.zip
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Wipe cache partition
thx for fast reaction!

I just noticed that when i go into recovery mode (Power of, hold volume down button while power on) that it says he's searching for pd98diag.zip and than it says: No image!
Does that cause the problem?
Thx!

You do not have clockworkmod recovery. Flash it using Rom manager.
Rom manager is not the same as clockworkmod.

[Q] Failed installing a new rom

Hi,
There are a lot of similar problems on this forum, but after trying a lot i still can't get my DHD fixed... I feel stupid atm..
It happened when trying to install the Sensation v2.1 rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131063)
I followed the guide from this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964996
I started with making the phone Radio S-OFF and ENG S-OFF. This was succesfull.
BELOW are the steps from the flashing guide, the BOLD marked part shows the part it went wrong..
- Tell any people that might call you during the next 10-15 minutes to not worry
- Connect your phone using "Disk drive" to the computer.
- Copy both your full-wipe-1-3.zip and your rom zip file to your SD Card
- Make sure you copied them correctly
- Check again because once you full wipe, you won't have a rom.
- Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Install and open Rom Manager from the market
- Tap on Flash ClockworkMod Recovery
- Wait for it to download (yes, you need a wi-fi or data connection)
- After it is done press "Reboot into recovery"
- If you get an icon with a phone and an exclamation mark in a triangle, remove the battery from your phone, reboot and then flash the clockworkmod recovery again
- Once you are in the clockwork mod recovery, you may use the volume keys as directional keys (up and down) and the power button may be used as Enter.
- I recommend you do a nandroid back-up. You must have at least 1 gb of free space.
- Select "Install Zip from sdcard"
- Select "Choose zip from sdcard"
- Select full-wipe-1-3.zip (It's right under those folders)
- Confirm by selecting the Yes option in between those "NO"s
- Wait for it to finish
- DO NOT REBOOT!!! In case you were not aware, you now have no rom installed
- Once again select "Install Zip from sdcard"
- Select "Choose zip from sdcard"
- Select your rom zip file
- Confirm your selection (just like with the wipe)
- Wait for it to finish
- Please reboot from the recovery menu and flash nothing else before you have rebooted
- Pop a champagne bottle, because it's done.
I was not able to select a file from the SDcard.. It kept saying "SDCARD NOT MOUNTED"
After that ive done some more:
- Format the card with SDFormatter and i've also tried in Clockworkmod itself but also there it said the SDcard wasn't mounted..
I've also read about a USB brick or something.. But to fix the usb brick u needed to put a file, update.zip, on your SDcard... which i couldnt load ofcourse.
At the moment i'm really frustrated because my DHD just wont start!!
It has no ROM.. At the moment it also stopped starting the Clockworkmod.. It shows a phone with a red exclamation mark when i press RECOVERY from Bootloader screen...
I hope someone can help me fix this DHD..!
Regards, Thijs

Actually, at the moment i dont care if the ROM i mentioned gets installed.
I'd be SO HAPPY to have the stock Android 2.3.3 with Sense 2.x back!!!!!

Oke it now for some reason found the SDcard and i succesfully wiped the device again with Full wipe 1.5 EXT4 and succesfully installed the Sensation rom.
At this moment the systems just won't boot.
It freezes at the first screen u see when you boot the DHD..
Anyone knows what this could mean??

I'm sure you have done this but I'm going to ask anyway.
Do you have a nandroid backup somewhere in your computer? If you do try mounting the SDcard with a cardreader...some laptops have a built reader. copy the nandroid folder to where clockwork backs everything up and try restoring from phone recovery.
Since you are hung on boot...see if you can do a factory reset and data wipe...a wipe sometimes clears a rom not booting. then again...I'm speaking with experience from other phones not the Desire HD or any HTC for that matter.

[Q] Help with stock ROM and unroot

I've searched for an answer to my problem for hours now and I've found a bunch of stuff, but non of it works so I hope someone can help me with my speciffic problem:
For a couple of months ago I rooted my phone and installed the custom ROM "Android Revolution HD 6.1.3". My phone is really slow and gets so hot it crashes apps. I have decided to install the HTC Desire HD stock ROM and have downloaded both the .exe version and the .zip version. The filename is: RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.3_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.15_M3_release_155032_signed.exe and .zip
I have tried with the .exe version first. When I start it, it says that it can't open the bootloader. Then I tried to copy the .zip version to my sd card, rename it "update.zip". Then I started the bootloader on the phone and choose "recovery" -> "install from sdcard" -> "apply /sdcard/update.zip". It starts to install, but just after saying "Installing update..." it tells me "Installation aborted."
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong and what to do?

You need to extract the Rom.zip from the ruu, rename it pd98img.zip, place on root of sd and flash through hboot. To extract the zip, run ruu on computer and leave it open on first screen. Type %temp% in cmd prompt and navigate to the folder with the newest date and time stamp. Look through this folder for Rom.zip.

One thing to note is you don't flash a pd98 through cwr. You flash it in hboot

Thanks for the answers, it worked!
