[Q] Brick Wall - Fascinate General

So need a bit of help from you folks.
As soon as I saw the new blackhole (DJ05 version) on ROM manager I downloaded, chose to wipe, and installed and it had worked brilliantly until I noticed my SMS totally broken and it appeared no wipe had actually taken place. No sweat, saw the post on here when I got home from work and flashed the modem portion and SMS was restored along with GPS working as I had always dreamed it could be.
All had been working well until I noticed today that my market was no longer downloading (the same day that I get the new market pushed to my phone no less!). So I re-read the thread in regards to the DJ05 becoming public and it recommended a wipe. I decided now was the time. However I have been 100% unsuccessful in wiping my phone beyond user data. I have attempted through the phone itself under privacy, through ROM Manager (both factory and cache in either order), via adb rm -r /data command and format data/system/cache, restoring to my backup before the DJ05 blackhole and THEN attempting to wipe (which I had done successfully previously) and any combination of these in every order along with following. I previously had voodoo 4 installed but removed it through the guide the complete way via odin months ago. I also found a guide on xda in one of the other galaxy s variant forums in regards to clearing data and cache in regards to android apps like market, download manager, etc.
My question is after making a short story very long, aside from odin-ing back to original firmware and then redoing the entire thing...what the heck can I do?!

I actually had that problem too with the setup in my sig. Removed voodoo. Restored a backup and did voodoo again and I got the market to work. Clearly that won't work for you but figured if let you know anyways..

Appreciate the response anyway. Argh, if I have to go all the way back via Odin and pretty much redo anything I will but god that would suck.

Yeah but at least you will get your market back.

did you going into manage applications and clear market from there or even remove update from there? that usually fixes it

Certainly did. That was my first step.

Had this problem before as well. U could try logging into google talk if u are not. Or log out then back in. This is what fixed it for me. Talk seems to have something to do with market
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Edit just noticed backhole may not come with talk but u can download it from stock apps section then log in

I have it installed and re installed to be sure but it appears on open and instantly closes but without a force close.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

hmm. Well that may be the problem. U could get on irc and ask if sonofskywalker is on and have him help. Or flash jts .8 rom this is what I'm using works great. No market issues. He just put it up on the develop section
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

It is also up on rom manager

I did try the stock dj05 and that was the same. I think I just need a wipe but for what ever reason that won't work. But will try the .8 because I have very little other options.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

No luck with the .8. Guess I'll have to odin back to launch and redo everything. Fml. Haha.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

Lol you can at least titanium backup your apps so you don't have to spend forever on reinstalling them

Market not downloading apps, not failing either

My market just displays "starting dowload" indefinitely when i try to download anything. And my google talk closes the instant that it opens. Any ideas on a fix?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
+1 on needing a fix.
My market has the exact same problem.
Just started yesterday when i went to jts clean rom.

Have either of you done a titanium backup?

I had that problem yesterday I had to un-root the phone I can't post the URL but you can find the thread in the 2nd page of fascinate and devlopement forum
it was the only solution I found and it helped
Im Having the same problem. Happened after flashing JT's clean ROM.
It's from restoring apps with Titanium Backup. For whatever reason, whenever I do this, it breaks my market no matter what ROM and whether I have Voodoo or not. Restore to stock, re-root, and everything, and you need to restore every app manually.
I did not use Titanium Backup.
I posted a new thread about this, seemed to work for me and a few others I tried. Check "for anyone having market issues"
Been having the same problem. I used titanium to freeze then defrost Market. Then did the same thing to Market Updater. Market works perfect now, but it reverted from the Froyo version back to Eclair. But it's better than not working at all.
Promise this will work. Just go to titanium and click on Market and then click Wipe Data. Do the same with Market Updater. All will be fixed.

Got anymore? Did this, and the thread mentioned above and no change.
I will have to try reverting to eclair if i can't get this working. Argh

This is an old issue, with several things to try.
I would first suggest looking through your application list and uninstalling any 0.00 sized files left as ghosts of apps manually removed. There will possibly be other smallish sized files left behind as well if you can identify them.
Force stop and clear market cache
Boot into recovery, clear cache and reboot.

I tried everything you just said above exactly. It still has the same result: "Starting Download" indefinitely.
I also tried using Titanium Backup to wipe data for market and market updater, but that didn't work either. I'm pretty frustrated that I can't figure this out
Got a solution. I was having the same problem with my Evo. Go to applications, then go to installed on sd. Move everything over to the phone. Then go to all applications and clear cache/data/and force stop it. That did the trick. You can move everything back to sd card after it fixes the market issue and it shouldn't happen again.

I also had this problem, I had to remove lagfix, restore older backup and start all over. It worked and all is well for me now. It sucks but it worked. I hope someone else can find a better solution. I even had jt reply and he said he didnt have that prob. Hopefully some will figure it out.

Uninstalling the froyo market and reverting back to the 2.1 market resolved this issue for me on 2 phones ... Mine and the wifee.
I had this issue, and I found out something peculiar. I was running JT's Super Clean rom with Market 2.2 and a Voodoo kernel, and the Factory Reset ran, but did not actually reset anything. After turning Voodoo off, I was able to Factory Reset, which fixed the Market issues.
Same thing here...
I was having this issue as well. Had to install JT Clean rom w/ wiping cache and data. Tried every suggestion in the book but none fixed it but wiping cache and data and installing JT Clean Rom.

Market wont work after downgrading from dj05

OK. So thisnis my first post here. but I've been readingb up here for almost. 2 months now. Everyone here is very nice and very helpful. So I upgraded to dj05 the other day. Everything was fine burning could jot get my market to open
I cleared the cache, market cache, market download, davilk cache, factory reset everything. So I decided to revert back to di01 and just wait out the official update. I reverted back via Odin and flashed in a clean version of di01. Now I am getting a network error when I try to open the market. Failure to connect with network. Any ideas guys?? Thanks for the help.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Sorry did you factory data reset after you flashed di01? Try clearing everthing one more time. This happened to me a couple of days ago.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Ok ill give it a shot. Thanks.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
OK I tried the factory wipe and cleared everything again. And when I open the market it still give me a server error.

Did you update your modem.bin?

Yeah I did that too. I just don't know what's wrong.

Did you wipe from stock recovery and from clockwork? Adryn has said before that clockwork wiping doesn't wipe everything. Not sure if you already did both though =)

If that doesn't work, try this:

Flash thru Odin - use PDA button only!!!!!
Ok so I reflashed the di01 and then used a backup female when o first got the phone rooted. And it fixed my problem. Thanks a lot for the help guys.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
can i please go into detail on how you fixed this? i have the exact same problem and i cant figure it out. I reflashed di01 and did all kinds of data wipes and it still wont work.
EDIT: nevermind i fixed it

Okay, Second time in 2 days... What is wrong?

All of the sudden (beginning yesterday) my phone has been freezing, to where I have to pull the battery, when I lock it. What could be causing this issue?
What kernel/rom do you have?
None, just rooted with stock everything.
task killer?
None from the market, I use Superpower to help with battery consumption.
Just happened again except this time it was upon receiving a text message and the phone vibrated constantly until the battery was pulled. Don't know if this means anything?

wipe cache and dalvik and fix perms
I don't have clockwork, how can I do this?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Download rom manager and have it flash clockwork. Then use it to reboot into recovery. Apply update.zip. goto advanced. Select fix permissions. It will do its thing. Select wipe dalvik cache. It will complete that. Go back (with the menu key) and hit reboot. Hopefully this helps!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788099 Flash CWM the right way lol..
Then clear dalvik,wipe, fix permissions
If it were me I would wipe at this point and start fresh
SCH-I500 - DJ05/SuperClean .9/Nemesis OTB 1200lv/Voodoo5/Darkstar
Simply rooting shouldn't have caused any of this behavior. If it were me, I would try a factory reset of the device (from Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset), and if that doesn't help, take it in for a warranty replacement. Installing CWM to fix something not caused by flashing seems a bit extreme.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I wiped and installed CWM everything's working now. Hopefully it stays that way.

problem loading widget

every time i restart my phone i have to reload all my widgets. this happened for the first time a couple of days age. i thought i had it fixed, but it started again to day. i have tried flashing to di01 and dl09 stock. all that did was break my mount on my pc (thank you Lord for adrynalyne). i am running adys test 5 voodoo now. until the flash stock i was on imnuts voodoo uv 25. other than the flash to stock, i have not flashed a nonvoodoo kernel over a voodoo. i dont even have nonvoodoo kernels on my sd card. i have done data and cache wipe and a dalvik cache wipe. any ideas?

are you running a voodoo kernel?
i think it has something to do with either red cwm or voodoo. i disabled the lag fix and flash a non voodoo kernel with green. that fixed it. using green i flashed another voodoo kernel. when i restarted the phone it did not apply the lag fix. si i rebooted into recovery and got red right away. i enabled the lag fix. restarted and lady android applied the lag fix. when it was done my booted up with all my widgets!!!!!
let me know if anyone else has this problem or theory.
Yes at one point I had run one of the froyo roms/kernels and yes I'm running voodoo. An Odin restore seemed to fix it. Not sure what was the problem.
Sent from my SCH-I500
Several folks over on account had this problem. Getting of red so far has fixed it for everyone. I'm back on voodoo and every thing works great now. But I had to disable lag fix and flash green and flash new voodoo in green before it worked. I have red back but its over green. I didn't even have green before.

Market Download Unsuccessful after EB01

Has anybody had any issues with downloading apps from the market after updating to the newest leak? The market will download the app and upon completion give the error Download Unsuccessful, please try again later. Ive tried wiping data and Cache, reloading the rom, Odin'ing back to DL09 (which worked) but after following all the steps to get back to EB01 or even DL30 I cannot install any app from the market. I've looked through the forums and found a few things like clearing the download manager's cache and the same for the market but that didn't help. I also force updated the market to the newest version and that didn't help either. I've also tried intalling apps that are backed up on my SD card and they will not install. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, my phone isn't currently activated, I will be re-activating it soon, but I'm not sure if that could have anything to do with the problem.
Did you odin the ed01 radio?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I've not had any problems. Hopefully someone else can help you.
But remember, this is the developer's forum. Troubleshooting goes in the General forum, or in the thread of the ROM you are using.
Odin'ed the EB01 radio. Followed the instructions 100%. Everything else seems to work great. I'm at a loss. & my apologies for posting in the wrong place, can this thread be moved?

I think I've got it. I found another post where a guy had a similar issue. He also had a Fascinate that was not activated. I turned off the "Mobile Data" in the notification bar and apps began installing properly. It does seem to be a Froyo related issue (or security measure) of some kind. Seems to be resolved. Thanks for the help guys!!
Very odd, you could try going to setting, applications, manage applications, select market in the "all" applications section and clear data, on the market only.

Its just odd, mine works fine

Dude you needs to redo it.
Boot into cwm, wipe cache a couple time, wipe data / factory reset a couple of times, and the reinstall your ROM. Hope it helps.
