E-signature verification failed and struggling for a flashing of stockROM



I am facing typical problem and struggling for a solution. My Samsung grand 4.2.2 (build no. JDQ39.I9082XXUBNG3) is definitely going to recovery mode by various method ( by pressing keys or, adb recovery reboot ) but showing only options which is its stock rom option is giving as earlier . When phone is in normal mode ( i.e kept ON ), Odin is sensing it but flashing with any philz_touch_5.15.0-i9082.tar ,CWM-touch_i9082_chotu.tar.md5 OR, any other recovery_20120412.tar is not passed through completely and when run it in Odin shows as below and when flashed directly from device through stock ROM option with above tar file /md5 file in recovery mode it shows E-signature verification failed & does not happen any thing further. I am able to boot my device in stock recovery mode of samsung ( e 3) which is having very limited option and my device is also in working condition.

Guide for those struggling with 'Adopt SD as Internal Storage' in Marshmallow



The first time you boot up your marshmallow device, you will receive a notification asking if you want to use your SD card as Internal or Storage. If you use storage its like any other external storage. But if you choose Internal, it will format your SD card to ext4 just like you would if you were to use Link2SD.
Now most of the apps will be stored on this SD card. However some won't and that's when you'll start running out of space. But that's not the case. Hidden inside is the option to move these apps to the SD card as well (along with the entire data and obb files). This is what you gotta do:
  1. Go to Storage & USB

  2. Go to Internal Storage

  3. Go to Apps

  4. Select the app

  5. Select the option 'Change' and select your SD Card and then select Move from the 'Move Authenticator' and it's done!


Mind you, that the pre installed apps and the bloatware cannot be shifted this way. However it won't matter. you will still have around 900 MB free and even if the pre installed apps take up cache space there is plenty of space.
Enjoy!
