Failed to verify whole-file signature

Added by Jordi Cerdan over 3 years ago

Hi,

I think I have broken someting on my phone :-(

I wanted to test other ROMs (I know, shame on me...) and tried to install them but allways got signature failed. Then I wanted to come back to Replicant as this one got installed easily the first time (I even upgraded it once)
Nou, after flashing recovery ok, If I try adb sideload the image I allways get
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature

I think I uploaded a .pit file to try to install lineageos 16 and maybe that changed something... I don't know.

Is there a way to debug that and see what's happening?

I have followed all the steps 3 times. Checked the commands. Everything I do seems ok, and Replicant recovery has been installed ok, as it boots into it after 'heimdall flash'
I'm trying to install the stable image Replicant 6.0 0003.

Best regards.

You mentioned having upgraded Replicant once. The issue you are having suggests to me that the version of Replicant's Recovery is different than the version of Replicant that you are trying to install. Can you try to install both the Replicant 6.0 0004 rc1 Recovery and Operating systems here? https://ftp-osl.osuosl.org/pub/replicant/images/replicant-6.0/0004-rc1/

Hi Kurtis,

You are right!!!!
I think I downloaded previous files from the wiki page, but maybe I'm wrong.
With the files you pointed me it went smoothly at the first try!
Thanks!

Best regards,

Hi Kurtis,

I wanted to try /e/ from the e.foundation as posted here:

https://community.e.foundation/t/unofficial-build-unofficial-pi-e-community-build-for-samsung-galaxy-sii-s2-i9100/14548

Can I try instructions there and then go back to Replicant after testing safely following the Replicant wiki and the files you pointed me?
Can the new .pit file from /e/ cause a problem?

Regards

Hi Jordi,

Can the new .pit file from /e/ cause a problem?

Yes, do backup your current PIT. You'll need it to flash back Replicant.
