There is "not enough space to install" ROM Manager after the new rom is installed... What do I do?
Tried installing a new 1.2 ghz Rom through the third or fourth option on ROM Manager(Free) coming from a non-overclocked voodoo kernal
EDIT: Have since reverted to my voodoo ROM, though now I cannot communicate with google(syncing, or market) Any help on this? and I have none of my marketplace apps.
EDIT: Have now wiped using the autouninstaller for voodoo and all is well an good in the world. Im gonna revert to a pre voodoo kernal for the time being till 2.2 comes out. Learn from my mistakes ppl. dont use a nonvoodoo kernal on top of a voodoo kernal
I've searched, but couldn't find a clear answer. I'm rooted running JT's voodoo kernel (v4 I think) one of his ROMS, and the Matted Blue theme. Before I begin this process, I'm just curious if I need to disable voodoo/restore to stock before I apply the DJ05 update/voodoo5 (yes, I have the steps, and am competent enough to mod my phone).
I've got most of the requisite files, and was just going to do voodoo5 though the ROM manager when the base DJ05 update finished.
Thanks.
In my experience, it is alwaus a good idea to disable voodoo begorr changing rom or kernel. And have heard that some people could not get dj to take without disable_lagfix. Good luck

Dj05
Just my two cents and maybe it has to do with competence, lol, but I spent about 3 hrs yesterday removing voodoo to reinstall it because I didn't disable it initially when adding jt's clean .07 rom. Voodoo5 looked like it installed and it allowed me to use my bluetooth and a new theme I had just installed, but my haptic response wasn't there and I was getting a lot of FC's. I tried every basic fix I know and finally thought i got it only to get a quadrant score of 900.
tl;dr
I would uninstall any voodoo you have before you upgrade to DJ05
if you're going from an old voodoo to the newest voodoo, you will likely have problems if you don't disable it beforehand.

Does this apply if you are only going from an older voodoo5 based kernel to a newer version of that same kernel?
Thanks guys. I disabled, and updated to DJ without a hitch (so far at least). Probably hit up Voodoo5 a little later tonight. Do need to find a DJ kernel so I can get my haptic back though...
nmyeti, please do not quote me on this, but in my searches I did see people mentioning they were upgrading between Voodoo5 kernals without disabling. I probably would, just in case.
If you already have the dj05, can you install the voodoo 5 kernel over it with no problems?

If you loaded clean .7, you don't have a DJ05 kernel. Either load the voodoo5 or a DJ05 kernel(there are a few in rom manager) or load a Clean .3 - .5 - they have kernel built into them. Since you have your old DI01 kernel and DJ05, your haptic is broken.

I loaded the 11/29 kernel for DJ05 when i first flashed clean .7. This kernel had some strange audio popping etc, so i went to a geeknic version and that kernel had the same issues. I finally decided to try JT's voodoo 12/1 and that resolved the issue. I've upgraded to 12/2 without problem and then yesterday updated to 12/3 and all seems well.
are there any oc uv kernels that are not voodoo for the dI01 that are compatible with the stock rom? Ive been looking around and every kernel is for the newer phones
You don't need a newer phone to use the newer kernels. If you're running a stock rom, then you should be getting prompted to install the DL09 patch. I don't think anyone is working on kernels for DI01 anymore, because it's flawed, and the newer kernels have lots of bugs fixed. I would recommend either upgrading your phone to DL09 with the OTA patch, or better yet, install a DL09-based custom rom and kernel.

Ok so i just installed the new eb01 rom and i also installed the voodoo kernel at the same time. On initial bootup my phone seemed to freeze at the samsung screen, i was like oh awesome it froze lol, but then my phone started talking to me in this computer lady voice about how it is changing the file system. It kinda scared me at first. Not sure if this is a new thing or not but it was strange....
Just thought id let ya guys know what happened to me at 7 in the morning lol. Hearing my phone talk to me, ya know im awake and ready for my day
That was the voodoo lady. Letting you know you activated it.

Yep, all Voodoo kernels do that, in order to let you know that your phone is actually doing something, instead of just appearing to be frozen.
I was wondering if someone can post the voodoo link for eb1. I apparently don't have enough posts to download it lol. Thanks in advance!

Isnt it a headache to get rid of voodoo if you ever decide to go back to an ota build?
Ok so I know this comes down to preference... BUT I'm still in noob mode and haven't messed with Android at all. So what is the benefit of installing the lagfix? Is it really that noticeable or more placebo effect?
I'm running stock DL30 and was just wondering if it is worth the time and energy to "update" to EB01 and use voodoo as well....
Have any of you that have installed EB01 seen anything new and/or improved from DL30 and with or without voodoo? Odexed vs Deodexed?
Just looking for some opinions before jumping in... Have everything downloaded and ready though Thanks for any input!
Forewarning about installing VooDoo LagFix.
Just a heads up with installing VooDoo... Next time you install another Kernel or ROM, you should disable VooDoo Lagfix in Recovery before you flash a kernel or a ROM again. If the kernel you are upgrading to is a VooDoo kernel or the ROM you are install has a VooDoo Kernel integrated.
You do this by going into Recovery and VooDoo menu at the bottom. You enable or disable it there. Then restart to let the VooDoo kernel take care of itself.
And if you do manage to destroy what you did...
Use Odin to flash an all in one such as this thread.

What VooDoo LagFix does is convert your RFS file system to EXT4. It also messes with the Master Boot Record or MBR. If you accidentally leave it in EXT4 and flash over it with a different kernel that expects RFS, your phone will lock your storage out. For those of you without Linux experience, EXT4 is basically a souped up NTFS where RFS is more like FAT32.

Not really. Just boot to Red CWM (included with Voodoo kernels), disable it. Reboot, and then flash whatever stock rom you want.

Um, I feel the need to clarify this. You DO NOT have to disable the lag fix in order to install ROMs, as long as you use the red version of CWM that the Voodoo kernel installed on your phone, replacing the stock recovery, and as long as the ROM you're flashing doesn't include a non-Voodoo kernel. Also, again using the red Voodoo CWM, you can install any other Voodoo kernel without disabling the lag fix. I have done it many times without incident. You only have to disable the lag fix if you intend to flash a non-Voodoo kernel, since the new kernel can't handle the EXT4 filesystem.

Curious though...sc 2.1 includes a voodoo kernel, but it's my understanding that voodoo isn't technically operational on ebo1 yet? Am I missing something here? Is the sc 2.1 voodoo functioning like regular voodoo?

You can only get voodoo for EB01 through the fascinate IRC channel right now. It is still being tested.
voodoo does come installed
There are 2 versions posted now voodoo and non-voodoo. I was wondering the same thing until i installed it. i think I read the same posts stating that it was not available yet. But it is! just not sold separately at your local retail stores. My phone talking to me, scared my wife when I was playing around with the lag fix in bed.
So if I understand you guys correctly, if I don't like the froyo voodoo kernel or want to restore a nandroid backup that doesn't have voodoo, I first need to disable voodoo in the red CWM using the voodoo menu. Once it changes the file system back to stock, I can then restore my nandroid backup.
Does that sound correct?

Help please!
Just installed voodoo lagfix.
And it is going through a bootloop... I see the Vibrant boot screen, then Galaxy S Gt-i9000 boot screen, and some lady saying "not enough space on partition." Does this loop over and over.
What did I do wrong?
How can I resolve?
Was running deodexed/rooted KB5.
I just went into recovery and I'm disabling voodoo, lets see what that does.
Well with voodoo disabled my phone boots up again.
What am I doing wrong with voodoo enabled?
strange, most of the stuff on my phone is gone, I don't even have an Android Market now.
Which kernel did you flash? there's one kernel specificaly for 2.2 KB5 that is absolute stock with the only difference being that it has voodoo enabled...
It worked for me! First, flash the stock 2.2 UVKB5 deodexed/rooted ROM, then flash the stock kernel with voodoo enabled, there shouldn't be any issues...

I went to voodoos website, and downloaded voodoo 5.5 for froyo.
At the following link:
http://project-voodoo.org/download
Did I download the wrong one? Wrong kernel?
I think I might have downloaded the wrong one, woops. I think?

Thanks, KB5 isn't listed though.
I'm going to try the link above posetd by ferhanmm.
I can flash the new kernel with current voodoo disabled without problems right? I don't have to odin back to stock?

It should be safe to flash this kernel with voodoo disabled if you're still on stock Froyo 2.2 KB5 deodexed. After flashing this, it'll take like 10 min to do its magic (you'll hear the woman's voice telling you the status).
Actually is the same as ferhanmm posted up there

Thanks, flashed it, but my phone is still acting strange. For example, Android Market is completely missing.
I'm going to disable voodoo again, flash deodexed/rooted KB5 back, start fresh, and try installing Voodoo again. Hope I don't mess something up again.
ps...your link didn't work

Man this isn't my day.
I disabled voodoo
Reinstalled deodexed/kb5 using cwm
then tried installing the voodoo kb5 kernel, and my phone is in some strange screen I've never seen before
There is a picture of a box, with an arrow coming out of the box, pointing to the android man, with a progress bar on the bottom, but nothing is happening other than the progress bar spinning.
errrrr

I suggest doing a full wipe and Odin back to stock!!! from there, flash 2.2 kb5 and then the kernel with voodoo.
BTW, how are you flashing the kernel? I used an app called SGS Kernel Flasher, you can download it from the market...
Ok I think I'm ok now.
Got voodoo working.
Phone seems to still lag though, got to play with it some more.
My quadrant score is now 1400, if that even matters.
I was using cwm to flash the kernel.
Thanks to everyone above for their help
Awesome! glad you could make it work.
I would flash eclair with odin and reflash get all the ghosts out of the system that always works for me.
