Hi
Flashing cyanogenmod stable 7.0.2.1 using the Rom Manager method described on their wiki, I get stuck on ClockworkMod Recovery with the error: "signature verification failed, installation aborted". How to proceed?
I have the following options:
- apply sdcard:update.zip
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- install zip from sdcard
- backup and restore
- mounts and storage
- advanced
Which should I choose? I am worried I might do something unrevocable..
Thanks
David
 
You use "Install zip from SD card". In that menu is "Toggle signature verification". Once toggled off, you can then "Choose zip from SD card".

You will first need to wipe data / factory reset though, so I hope you have used titanium to back up your apps and done a backup from recovery of your rom.

However, before you do all this, I would suggest following the red link in my sig and having a good ole read of the rooting FAQ :)
