Everytime I try to run setcpu i select the hero option since Eris is not listed then it just takes me to a black screen and force closes. So I did the auto detect and it does the same thing force close. Can someone please help me? My friend rooted my phone so I know very little so please be specific!
Thank You
ok, first off you might want to uninstall setcpu to get rid of any previous settings you have. then reinstall it and follow these instructions from a previous post
1. Install SetCPU, if you haven't already. It's available here on XDA for free and for $0.99 on the Market.
2. In SetCPU, choose the "HTC Hero/Tattoo [MSM7k Turbo]" option from the device selection menu. The CPU will happily ignore you, but setting it to this means that you won't enter a reboot loop after patching when SetCPU starts and overclocks your CPU entirely too much.
3. Make sure the "Set on Boot" option is unchecked, until you're absolutely certain that the settings you've got won't freeze your phone. Also, turn off profiles.
4. Flash the latest kernel-overclock-update-v*.zip below, using your favorite method, and boot your phone. Note that this kernel update will not overclock your phone until SetCPU tells it to -- the default policy is 245.76MHz min, 528MHz max, ondemand.
5. Start SetCPU, hit menu, and go to device selection. This time, select "Autodetect Settings". Change the governor to "performance" (which means it will always use the highest frequency in the range), and start incrementing the max up from 528MHz, one step at a time, releasing your finger each step (SetCPU applies the change when you let go of the slider), until your phone freezes.
6. Remember the bit about not checking the "Set at Boot" option? This is why. Reboot your phone (this will probably involve pulling the battery, if the phone didn't reboot on its own), and start SetCPU again. SetCPU very nicely shows you the last settings you saved, but does not apply them, which is nice because those settings will lock your phone. Lower the max setting to something that won't lock your phone, put the governor back to "ondemand", and set up profiles how you like.
after you have done all of this you can then have set at boot checked

No idea how to do that or what rom to pick. My frined literally did everything yesterday I sat there and played xbox lol.
so you really have no idea what was done to your phone?? and the roms are simple to install, look at the different rom threads, see which one you think you might like and follow the instructions on installing them. make sure you do a nand backup before you install them though. instructions for all of this can be found in this forum

first download a good ROM like Ivan's Eris_Official 1.0, unless you already have (it's a .zip file).
Put that on your SD card (do you know how to do this? if not, then stop here, and ask, otherwise go to the next step).
Turn off your phone. Hold the VOLUME UP botton while powering it back on. It will boot into Recovery. Go to Backup/Restore. do a 'nand backup' of your phone. It takes 2 minutes or so.
Then use VOL DOWN to go to the last menu (it tells you at the top to do this). Then go to Wipe and then select Factory/data reset. Then also from that menu choose Wipe Dalvik Cache.
Then press VOL DOWN to go to the last menu (it tells you at the top to do this). Then select 'Flash Zip from SD Card'. Select the .zip file you downloaded (Eris_Official_1.0OC.zip or whatever it's called). (It'll take five minutes to flash).
Then Reboot the phone (this will take 5-10 minutes, don't worry how long it takes. Any time you wipe dalvik cache, this will happen. it's supposed to).
Your phone will start up brand new.
If you've gotten this far, then you probably want to flash that kernel you have, Zanfur's overclock kernel. That one's a little better than what comes with Ivan's Eris_Official. If you get this far, then come back and post again.

I'm contemplating using RyanZA's OCLF app to root. My Vibrant has some issues that I'm hoping to correct with root access.
Anyways, does this app (from the market) still work post JI6? I've read that the lag fix doesn't seem to do much anymore, is this correct?
Also, When I run the rooting part of the app, is does it's thing and says reboot to the download mode or whatever, I get into that no problem, but then what do I do?? Volume up and down to move, power to select, but which option do I choose? Everything walk through I've found skips right over this tidbit.
If I remember right, one says reinstall packages, another is erase user data, etc.
Just a little guidance and assurance that this app still works would be great.
Thanks.

If you are rooted, have superuser, busy box installed & clockwork mod installed. then you should be able to select reinstall packages and that should take you rite into clockwork recovery menu.

It worked on my Vibrant.
When in recovery, the selection to choose is the reinstall packages.
I didn't immediately apply the lagfix after JI6, as stock did have some performances gains. But after a few weeks, I was noticing some of the old lag issues again. At that point, I installed the lag fix again, (I had it installed before JI6) and saw some good results, not as drastic as before, but the problem wasn't as severe as it was right after launch.

yes, use OCLF to root....there is no danger in it, then reboot into stock recovery and choose reinstall packages....then reboot and you are rooted....HOWEVER, after you reboot your phone, mount your sd card to your PC, and move "update.zip" from your internal SD to your EXTERNAL SD...this will make way for ClockwordMod's update.zip
^^If youre going to root it was 100% recommended that you flash ClockworkMod's recovery, find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734164

So install it immediately following root?
I installed RyanZA's OCLF straight from the Market on JI6, and so far I have to say the user experience is much more responsive. The JI6 update made things noticeably better in terms of responsiveness, but the OCLF has made this thing almost "snappy".
I haven't installed Clockwork recovery (yet) as I'm still puzzling over exactly what to do (what to copy and where) now that the OCLF rooting and lag fixes are installed.
Rooted Samsung Vibrant, Kernel 2.6.29 JI6
Ryan I installed your lagfix, but Quadrant Score almost identical than before lagfix install. I know many thumb their nose at these benchmark scores, but I was expecting a big change. Anything I could have done wrong?
thanks in advance for any help!!
****update*****
I knew something could be done to better this so I messed around a little. I originally installed OCLF V1+ ...... and the V1+ Quadrant score was the same as pre-OCLF around 835 ... uninstalled that and went to OCLF V2+ ....... OMG this is insane!!!
After going to OCLF V2+ - Quadrant score exploded to 2118 ..... wicked. I tried to swamp this thing but that's just not happening.
Thank you RyanZA
Hello. Please help me. my phone can not use the rom manage. I have used one once, but can not be used again. when I turn on the program, still connected 3g/wifi but nothing more happened at all. I have copied the program into the correct directory. My phone rooted.This phenomenon occurs after I Flast 2.1
What doesnt work? Does it not install? Why are you copying the app at all? Why not install from Market?
I installed the application from Market but I can not use the rom manage.

You have to be rooted to use it.
You can't expect people to help you if you don't tell them the problem.
So its installed, did you flash the clockworkmod? Should be the top most option.

Also, did you download it from the market, or did you steal the pro version from online? I am asking because you said "I copied it to the right directory"
Maybe I understand his/her problem. Rooted, installed RM but cannot install Clockwork?
Few options here, search for the standalone update.zip with Clockwork and do it that way OR wait a few hours and try again.
The 1st choice I had to do once because RM wasn't liking my phone and the 2nd choice sometimes the server is down.
First, my phone t959 rom UVJI6 normal. Then my rom to version 2.2 T959UVJFD. I do not feel satisfied so I returned to the Odin 2.1.
My phone has a normal root and fix lag.
but then, I could not manage to use the rom again.
Sorry for my english level is limited. I'm from Vietnam

If youre trying to flash another rom you need to disable the lagfix first.

My assumption is you have OCLF, try removing it then giving it a go.
Google a clockwork update zip that is pushable with ODIN, I found one the other day. I MAY have it still but I am not sure and I honestly have no clue where I found it, wasn't xda I am about 90% sure. It is not really a solid fix but will get you to where you have CWM. Rom Manager will not recognize you have it installed but when you go to enter recovery mode it will enter into CWM.
Did you by chance also flash a custom kernal? When I tested out a few I noticed my phone did the same thing, my knowledge currently doesn't expand far enough to know if they can even be related though. I am still learning a lot myself.

Always living up to your name...
I had mine fixed up through some trial and error hopefully this gets the OP in the right direction.
For all those saying that my instructions are redundant.
Please follow all instructions!
I understand that Nero v3 wipes your data and caches for you, but there has been many cases where it has not done that, and users have really messed up their phones. Please take the extra 30 seconds and wipe it manually to be safe.
As far as the Voodoo step. I undertand that when deleting the "disable-voodoo" file, that it will automatically enable Voodoo for you on the next reboot. However, there are also cases where this didn't happen. Please check to ensure.
My instructions may seem redundant to users who have done this a lot.....but this isn't for those users. Please follow the steps exactly to help avoid ANY problems, don't just assume everything works automatically like it's supposed to. Might as well take the extra 2 minutes to do all of my steps, then 2 hours arguing with T-Mobile as to why they won't exchange your bricked/modded phone.
STOCK 2.1 to NERO V3....SIMPLE AND SAFE!
First of all, thank you Team Whiskey for Nero v3. To everyone wanting Nero v3, but are tired of seeing all the confusing and long tutorials:
1. Ensure your phone is rooted (Google z4root if your not).
2. Download ROM Manager
3. Flash the 2.5.1.2 ClockworkMod Recovery
4. Download Nero v3 from a computer, and Drag-n-Drop the .zip file onto your Vibrant SD card.
5. Restart your phone in CWM Recovery via ROM Manager
6. Click "clear cache", and "wipe data", click Advanced, click "clear Davlik cache", click "install from SD", click "install a .zip from SD", then install the Nero v3 .zip
7. Reboot, WAIT 15 MINUTES WITHOUT TOUCHING YOUR PHONE...REBOOT AGAIN... and you should be good.
8. To enable voodoo, open SD card from phone, delete "disable_voodoo" under the voodoo folder, reboot to recovery (NOT FROM ROM MANAGER, BUT FROM THE HOME SCREEN USING THE POWER BUTTON, THEN SELECTING RECOVERY) (SHOULD BE A RED RECOVERY), goto voodoo lagfix, press enable, then reboot....REBOOT WILL TAKE AROUND 10 MINUTES, DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE!
FOLLOW STEPS CLOSELY
P.S. Don't Forget the THANKS button.
Looks nice, concise, & noob friendly (I should know).
Kudos.

So glad this thread was made. Its retard easy to flash this rom and get voodoo to work (it was my first and I have this opinion, which should speak volumes), I really can't believe the amount of people in the thread that just couldnt figure it out.
What do you recommend for backup/restore of apps and data? Will EVERYTHING get restored? I spent a lot of time configuring my home screen with folders and apps. Can that be restored?
Lastly, if I decide to go back to stock JI6 and my original setup, is there a relatively easy way to do that?
Thanks.
Titanium backup will backup all your apps and such, but to get your home screen back I'm pretty sure you just have to do it manually. I know that sgs tools lets you backup your home screens but I'm not sure if it will work across roms or not, you could try it, at worse it will give you an error message and just make your home screens all blank (well really at worse you have to reflash).
Titanium managed to back up my homescreen settings, both for TouchWiz and for Launcher Pro.
EVERYTHING (all my text messages, internet history, bookmarks, etc.) was exactly like before, but in Nero instead of stock.

Nero v3 already forces wiping data and cache. The instructions are redundant, no need to worry about it.

That's really all "enable Voodoo" in green CWM recovery does. The step is redundant as well.
The fastest way is after you flash the Nero V3.zip and reboot, hold down the volume and power buttons to go back into the recovery menu before anything even loads. Enable voodoo here, as theres little data it will need to convert to voodoo. Then once you boot into android, everything it writes from here on out will be ext4. If you load up android first, it'll have to go back and rewrite all the data you just created to the new file system, taking longer.
For all those saying that my instructions are redundant.
Please follow all instructions!

If you have a lot of stuff in the root then you'll need to scroll pasted the bottom. Like just keep scrolling down and once you see the ++go back++ then you're at the bottom. I just had this issue flashing nero v4.1.
Hey
I just got a update OTA however if I check i still have 2.1 JI6 Eclair
I dont kno what that update was but i kno alot of people have Froyo
I want to flash a rom .. but do i need froyo to use bionix v by team whiskey?
since i have eclair i have to use the bionix for 2.1 or update to Froyo right??
How would I update to Froyo.
No, it's actually better that you don't have stock Froyo on you, you can flash any 2.2 ROM straight from Eclair.
which kernel should i get with it?
ka7 with voodoo..
i want the voodoo and rom to optimize productivity
Go with [ROM] Trigger, I've been on it for a few weeks now and by far the most stable and reliable ROM I have tried, the latest is blazing fast + I added Over Stock to it and now my phone wants to fly off my hands.
Download RomManager from market and flash your recovery, you'll see the option.
Then flash the rom thru recovery and you are a happy camper.
Oh, yes, it comes with Voodoo as you wished.
Sorry, forgot the link:

well i have titanium backup set with everything backedup
but if i use trigger applying those setting would be dumb?
sry newb , ive been tryin to research for awhile
nm dumb question i think
i will have it and have my settings
You don't want to load any setting that you backed up from a different ROM, it will conflict the new one. When you flash, use these procedures to grant you a clean flash:
Download ...........zip and place on your sdcard
Boot into recovery and Wipe Data/Factory Reset Before You Move On
Flash .................zip
While still in recovery: Wipe Cache Partition, and inside the advanced menu: Wipe Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions - Do Not Factory Reset Again
Reboot
After about 10 minutes, you should reboot again.
Done!

You just restore those from TB after re-boot. Make sure you only restore user apps though.
Dev. Do not recommend restoring apps on their roms since it might bring the bugs to you

Just re-download them, that way it is sure they will work propperly.

You just make a batch in TB. So in TB just go menu>settings>batch> then RUN the batch the says "Backup all user apps". Devs only recommend you don't restore system data. User apps or third party apps are ok, atleast I do everytime.

Do the option "re-install packages", if it brings you back to recovery after that, hit it again and it will take you to CWM.
If non of the above works, consider this:

how do i go about finding that out? 'tis all bank (here i noob)
went through SE set up instead of closing it like I usually do, IDK what happened diff, )after factory reset, but that's my advice: if all else fails factory reset then make sure to go through the SE set up step by step

here's a simple way, download the attached zip, extract it and copy it to your sd card
so you should have this:
SD/ApnBackupRestore/something.xml
use wifi and download 'apn backup & restore' from the market
open the app
restore
select that back up you just put on your sd card
this is a backup of my att apn's that i know works, and i am on the .71 baseband
if you don't have wifi, here's apn backup and restore
download this, move it to your sd card, install it (hopefully you have a file browser installed). make sure you have unknown sources checked in settings > applications.
working
like i said not sure if it was the factory reset or the instructions followed. but i must report wiimote is working emulators working, boots are stupid fast...
"F!" ATT for keeping this from us. loving GB thanks DEVS for holding us over till this!
P.S. Can't wait till this gets modded
also, my connection started out slow, but now is "blazing"
more
logcat boot animation works (had bootloop troubles on custom ROMs before) did i mention its stupid fast? ADW launcher works as well as backup/restore settings from ADW app.
bed time
more tomorrow
updated to GB. Did not have data connection but I opened up my browser and pop up showed up saying att. Click on it and everything works now =)
