I hope this isnt already in here somewhere. I am on xda app and search seems to search every single forum on xda. I didnt see this addressed while looking so sorry if this is elsewhere. But here goes...
Ok so last night I used odin and did my modem.
Next I flashed clean rom in cwm.
At this point all was fine. I did forget to wipe first but phone booted fine and all seemed well.
Next I tried to power down and volume down into cwm but it said, in red, couldnt verify or something and sent me back to stock recovery.
So I rebooted and used rom manager to reboot into recovery where I flashed jt's 1128 test kernel.
During reboot the voice came on and started with "this make take a few minutes" "step one", pause "step two" then a long pause and it repeated "step one" "step two". It never said success but after repeating the two steps it booted up.
The first time I installed voodoo it started with something about converting data partition or something and of course ended with conversion successful.
So now my phone runs fine. But my quadrant score is right at 900.
Am I running voo doo 5 or not?
I am guessing not and would like to know what to do now.
Help please.
Fascinate oc1.2 for now
Everything sounds good but the score its way to low so imo I'm saying no it didn't take..

i got 2080 on Quadrant running voodoo 4 ???
ya i get 1800+ on voodoo 5
Have you checked the voodoo folder on your sd card and verified the disable_lagfix file isnt still there from a previous voodoo removal?

good day. From the Fascinate sporting the XDA app.
It sounds like you didnt flash clockwork mod recovery from rom mang. I got the same failer notice when I deleted the update.zip off my sd card. I just flashed it from rom mang. And all was fine. Hope this helps.

Ok so I did flash recovery from rom manager with no change. I still could only get into recovery only from rom manager. Using stock recovery then the update didnt work.
Next I replaced update zip with the original file from when I rooted and it immediatley would load fine.(it was also red)
I tried selecting jt's 1128 test kernel again and it did the same exact thing..."this may take a few minutes"..."step one"..."step two"..."this may take afew minutes"..."step one"..."step two" then it booted up.
Same as yesterday
There is no disable file in voodoo folder so what the heck is going on?
Also when I flash jt's 1126 kernel it just boots. No voice at all.
Argh
Fascinate hopefully with voodoo 5 soon
I would try, disable lagfix, reboot, flash non voodoo kernal, reboot, remove all voodoo stuff on sd card, remove update.zip, install rom mang, flash clockwork recovery, and if all is well, then do the voodoo flash.im not sure about the dj05 tho. So this is all up to you.

You're doing it wrong. Make sure that there isn't a disable_lagfix file. Do an Odin restore back to DH12 system kernel recovery the whole thing. Leave the DJ05 radio. Root the phone and install cwm. Them look in the fascinate dev forum on removing voodoo completely. Do that. Once that is done reinstall clean DJ05 through cwm and then install jt's latest voodoo 5 kernel. It'll run through step one and step 2 twice. And recovery will be red that's the fixed recovery that has voodoo options so you don't need the disable_lagfix file and it has working nandroid backup and restore.

Would the modem.tar i used to get to where i am now be the dj05 radio?
Sent from my soon to be voodoo 5 Fascinate
this thread helped me a lot. i was pissed after going thru all the install stuff and whatnot from irc, and then it was slower.
but i forgot that i had the disable_lagfix file still in place. deleted that and booyah. fast little phone.
glad i read this thread.
Thanks for this info it took my quadrant from 1100 to the upper 1700s. Phone is super fast and responsive now, simply incredible.

Update:
So here is what i did. I went into cwm and disabled voodoo and conversion even though i don't think i was running voodoo.
Next i removed all voodoo files on the root of my sd card.
Then i flashed a geeknik kernel (love his kernels)
And finally i rebooted into cwm and flashed jt's 1128 test kernel and all is well with the world. I am now running quadrants in the 1700 range and my phone feels nice and snappy.
Woo hoo.
Thanks for the help
Fascinate oc1.2 for now
I'm a relative newbie and not very tech-oriented, and I appear to have screwed up big time. I'd appreciate any help that can be offered. To cut to the chase, when I attempt to boot up my Fascinate, it gets stuck indefinitely on the Samsung logo.
Here's what I did to screw it up. I rooted my phone when I first got it last year and did a lagfix. It unrooted with the update to JD05. Yesterday I attempted to root it again using two different 1-click methods, neither of which worked. I then followed the instructions in the "Modified CWMrecovery for Odin" thread, not having it work until finally succeeding in getting root using CWM Red. The phone rebooted and was rooted, and everything seemed fine, so I used Rom Manager to Boot to Recovery. This did something strange--it took 15 minutes to get to the recovery screen, with a digital voice periodically telling me how much longer it would take. When I got to the recovery screen the first thing I did was to perform a backup. I think this effort to be safe did me in, because the phone must have already been screwed up then and I think I backed up the screw-up.
I then attempted to reboot and since then all efforts get me stuck on the Samsung logo. I've tried almost all options from the Recovery screen: reboot system now, apply sdcard update.zip, wipe date/factory reset, wipe cache partition, install zip from ascard, and restore. All bring the same locked up phone.
I'd appreciate any ideas to bring my Fascinate back to life!
First off the only way to get to red CWM is to install a voodoo 5 kernel. I'm thinking the voodoo kernel and the one click lag fix don't play well together. I'm sure someone else will step in with more info however I would start by looking for a thred called how to completely remove voodoo. Then try odin to restore. Good luck.
Edit. I read your post again and not sure if u did one click lag fix or just an older voodoo kernel. Either way same result u have to disable voodoo 4 and one click to install voodoo 5. Odin it. The voice u hear was the voodoo kernel converting your system to ext4 if this was the first time you've heard this I think your first lag fix may have been the one click.

Yes this happed to me too. If i take it to the Verizon store will they know my phone is rooted and moded? i need help ASAP
Search the forums on how to properly removed the voodoo lag fix. Then you need to reflash dj05. Voodoo doesn't really do much except for show you a higher quadrant score and limit to what roms/themes you can install. Same thing happened to me. Just do a quick search, I think its in the development section. The easiest way to remove it is with and. Hope this is somewhat helpful.
so fresh and so superclean.
Don't bring it to verizon because you would be defrauding them for your mistake. see if you can access your sd card through the computer and put either a file or folder in the voodoo folder called disable_lagfix and try booting again. If that doesn't help (it is probably too late for that) then you need to flash back to stock through odin. find the thread in development on how to do that. Good luck. Your phone is not broken. Breathe.

Here is the ODIN back to stock if you don't want to bother with removing Voodoo. That should fix your phone with or without Voodoo. It's always worked for me.
THANKS SO MUCH its back to normal i cant thank you enough
Many thanks for all of the help.
Hey Everyone, I thought I'd share how I got 2.2 working on DL05 Fascinate.
I had voodoo5 installed, running cwred
1.) You need to download the rom, and the new CWR
2.) Disable Voodoo5 in Red CW and then flash the new CW GREEN, after you do that reboot your phone, let it disable voodoo it will take time (5 min) on my side.
Soon as it boots up to the fascinate, pull the battery, and reboot into the new CW GREEN.
4.) Flash new Rom, and then wipre date and cache! and done! It takes awhile to boot, I thought mine froze on the Verizon screen for like 4 min.
I have flash, and HID!
Please Do not hold me responsiblity if you brick your phone!
This is just personal experience if you have any questions please let me know, I hope i've helped you!
They've added some stuff, which of course we all wanted froyo. But they have a new app called media hub, for movies, tv shoes, and such. Also you can turn on and off auto rotation, and your mobile data from the drop shade! also you can now sync with yahoo, and hotmail. all share and has google search as your auto, no more bing!
Thanks! There was something about CWR not working on this build, is that still the case? And I heard (from a file apparently posted by Adrynalyne) that SMS and MMS don't work, is there anything else that's not working? Really tempted to flash for the HID so I can use my mini bluetooth keyboard. I don't use SMS anyway (only Google Voice).
Edit: Oh, kaos said in that thread that this isn't the ROM that was on IRC. Cool!
Also, the new dropdown thingies sound awesome, I've been wanting those two forever. And wow, no bing, really? That's really tempting then.
Edit 2: Where'd you get the new CWR?
There is a new CW, floating around somewhere SMS and MMS work great, Also found out you can change your font from the settings menu!
I had a buddy give me the link, hold on
New CWM

Is that specifically for voodoo or nonvoodoo kernels, and is it flashed with odin or straight through current clockwork?

So if your just running a regular rom, flash through GREEN Clock work, wipe date and cache, and your ready to rock n roll sir!
I'm running blackhole 3 with a nonvoodoo kernel. I'm using standard CW recovery, I don't know much about these green/red variants.

Download the new Clock Work above just in case, flash it. reboot your phone back into clockwork, install foyo, then do a data and cache, RED was only for voodoo
Ok thanks, I'm not interested in using voodoo
Yeah, so it should be a easy process for you
If you aren't running voodoo, just boot into whichever CWM you are using and flash the rom.
I was running VooDoo, so I did the following:
Boot to Red CWM
Disable lagfix
Install Green CWM through Odin
Boot to Green CWM, wipe, flash DL30_leak.zip
I just flash CWM Green with the new zip file. easier to do it that way.
Ugh my phone is unable to mount as mass storage and its driving me nuts... Just says its a cd drive despite multiple reboots. Anyone know of a fix yet?
Edit: Hmm made it ask every time I connect and that actually worked for mounting so if anyone has this problem, try that.
Turn the USB into DEBUG Mode, should get you rocking

Should I flash this if I am on a non-voodoo kernel? And if so, how do I do it? Just flash via CWM and it updates it?
Im stil running dj05 deodexed rom and koushs cwr. Can i flash the dl30.zip using my current recovery or what is the easiest way to get this running. At work so i can't get to odin if i have an issue. Appreciate any helpful responses!
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
ok. first off.
I just switched from dj05 voodoo with a sc rom, to sc2.3 voodoo eb01.
I made a back up in rom manager of dj05, and a tibu back up, but tibu, for some reason, didn't save to my sd. so I tried to go back to the dj05 back up, but it wouldn't boot. just got stuck on the samsung screen.
so I pushed dj05 back, tried to restore the back up, and still got stuck on the samsung screen. any ideas how to get this back?
ok. next. on sc2.3 eb01, I had neongt theme, decided I wanted revolution, so I downloaded revolution. put on sd, flashed, and boot looped. flashed neon gt again, it booted, and now I have both themes. dialer/menus from revolution, drop down from neon, etc. how would I go about getting just revolution?
lol ok next. so I kinda don't like how things are going with my current setup. would you recommend going with aosp v.7? and if so, would I push the eb01 voodoo kernel through odin then flash the rom through cwm?
thanks in advance for any help!

Won't boot back to dj05 because you probably didn't do an odin complete back to djo5. I'm betting you just tried flashing the rom ontop of your eb01 modem.
Your theme/rom issues are stemming from a lack of wiping data more then likely before flashing over the new rom/themes.
If you're running voodoo, try super clean 2.4 w/ voodoo...really nice and fast.

I've pushed dj05 back via odin and still wouldn't boot.
what all do i need to wipe for different themes? I've wiped dalvik/data/battery/the other one under data that I don't remember right now.
do you have links for voodoo kernel and sc2.4? and steps? like push voodoo with odin and flash sc2.4 through cwm? and what do I wipe?
another problem I forgot about- i cant use tibu on sc2.3 cuz of a busy box problem, and busy box from market won't work.

To be honest, I've never used a backup software. I manually copy and paste. any apps I download to a file on my computer then transfer them back over.
Follow these steps though.
1. Charge the battery till it reads 100%
2. Place Super Clean voodoo 2.4 on your SD card on your phone and enter download mode.
3. Plug in phone to odin and using PDA flash over eb01 modem
4. Go into CWM wipe data twice/bat statistics and cache...then select locate super clean 2.4 w/ voodoo and install and enjoy.
If you already have the eb01 modem set up, just download the sc 2.4 w/ voodoo and place it on your sd card and reboot into cwm. flash data at least twice and cache on a full charge. Then locate the zip file and extract/load via cwm. Should be good.
ok thanks. once there, should everything be wiped enough to be able to flash revolution theme on?

If you're going to flash a theme over sc 2.4, I'd still wipe data twice and cache...that's just me though. It's always best to start fresh you know?
yeah gotcha. can you help me with the busy box issue? or should I just pull all the apps from my phone to my computer?

I've never really pursued anything that way. I run on flashed phones so there's alot more chances for things to get f'd up so I've always done things the extra cautious way unfortunately. That way if I get a corrupted sd card error or anything along the lines, I'm secured. Plus I keep a change log for prl and modem settings.
Hey guys,
I rooted my Fascinate successfully, then I installed Titanium Backup.
On TB, I tried 'force uninstalling' VZW Apps.
Then, my Fascinate crashed, and now it boots into recovery.
On recovery, I can't do anything. I'm planning to reset my Fascinate.
Do I need to re-flash CwM Recovery to reset?
Also, do I keep Superuser when I reset?
Android version: 2.3.5
Thanks.
No need to flash again. Since you are still on gingerbread you can use 3 finger method to get into cwm (hold power volume up and down to turn on the phone until the Samsung screen flashes)
You probably don't even have to flash a new rom and can just do a full user data wipe. The caveat to that would be if you tried to push the bad apk as a system app.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
Edit: I assumed you had flashed cwm to start since you said reflash but nowhere do you state that you actually have. In any case, try 3 finger. If you end up in cwm you arr golden. If its Samsung recovery then flash cwm.
Oh, and ALL decent roms come pre rooted so don't worry about that. And there's really no reason to use the Samsung stock from as both superclean and geewiz are based on it and include additional fixes and features not found in stock
Still some problems
Hey, thanks for the advice. I think I need to reflash.
Also, I have used the recovery system before.
