problem with backing uo current rom using rom manager

[duckydude]

Thanks for the post, but I had already read through it before posting my issue here. I was able to get CWM flashed through Odin though. The workaround was to use an older version of Odin. Worked on the first try!

Flash Clockwork and then flash sprecovery and then flash clockwork again. That normally corrects any issues your having with clockwork. You may also try going to one of the older clockwork versions. When I use clockwork, I use the 2.0.1.3 version. It seems to a really good one for me. YMMV!!

I know this is an old thread, but I joined just so I could let others who run into this issue know the fix (at least for me). The above worked for me. I'm running the latest version of clockwork (5.0.2.2) and I went from that to ra recovery and then back to clockwork and now I'm finally able to run a backup... and I just wanted to get another and into the sentence and

Thanks for the fix BayouFlyFisher!

Hi !

I wanted to update my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000B when I read I need to install the ClockWork Recovery mode using Odin. In fact, looks like this is a pre-requisite to run "Backup the current Rom" option of RomManager, otherwise I get that message; "E:failed to verify whole-file signature"; "E:signature verification failed"; "Installation aborted"...as I read in this thread.

Well, now I am in trouble !

I put the phone in download mode, and start the flashing the CMRecovery.tar. The process completed successfully. The Odin status is a big green PASS!.

The problem is now the phone is in a loop displaying Samsung in "normal" font and then Galaxy S Logo.

What I can do to get the phone working again ?
What I did wrong ? The CMRecovery.tar is not the right one to my phone ?

Please, tell me I did not brick my phone !
Any help is appreciated.
