I just rooted my phone with the one click root and now I'm trying to flash clockwork mod onto my phone so I can flash the froyo ROM and a new theme but every time I click "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" it gives me an error saying that an error occurred while downloading your recovery. I even tried to use older versions and I get the same error. What am I doing wrong? I'd really like to use froyo.

I would recommend reading through the beginners guide which is stickied at the top of the general thread which covers rooting, odin, CWM, ROMS etc.; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=897889.
Alright, well I used Odin and flashed that .tar file and I'm still getting an error from clockworkmod. Any other suggestions?
Did you put the update.zip on your sd card? You shouldn't need to do anything with rom manager.
Edit: Further instructions... Place update.zip on root of SD card, flash .tar with Odin using PDA, boot into stock 2e recovery (blue) and apply:update.zip, which should take you into new red cwm

I did all of that and I got a message that says it failed to verify whole-file signature, and that the installation aborted. I guess my phones just not to be rooted....
No, I'm rooted. I used the one click root. I can use rooted apps such as ad free android, cache cleaner and Titanium Backup. I have the superuser app in my app drawer. I just need to be able to get clockworkmod to work so I can flash some themes and the froyo rom that was leaked.
OK, let's troubleshoot here...
You have done the following:
1. Download Odin, cwm_froyo-odin.zip
2. Extract cwm_froyo-odin.zip, place update.zip on root of SD card
3. Power phone down, remove battery
4. Open Odin, hold volume down and plug in USB to enter download mode
5. Select PDA and place cwm_froyo.tar and flash
6. Upon finish, replace battery, hold both volume buttons down and power on until you enter stock recovery (blue)
7. Apply:update.zip to enter red recovery
You're doing all these steps and still having a problem?

Yes, I did all of that just as you mentioned. Is it safe to go over them one more time? Or is it bad to keep flashing that file to my phone?
