I was wondering if someone could tell me what I need to do to use a gingerbread theme on my fascinate. I don't fully understand the potential dangers of flashing a dj05 theme over a dl09 rom. I got the OTA dl09 but then flashed Blackhole 3.0 rom...so yeah I'm not really sure if that matters, but I would appreciate any help! Thanks guys.
You can flash the dj05 themefrom nitsuj/retrokid, but you have to immediately flash the dl09 theme fix. Other wise, your phone will not boot. Not sure exactly why, but something with an option changed from dj05 to dl09.

..... it can be found here.
When you say flash the theme fix immediately after, do you mean I have to set up a que in rom manager or...yeah i dunno what else. Usually when I flash a rom the phone reboots itself instead of returning to the CWM recovery screen.

Instead of booting into recovery from ROM Manager, turn the phone off. Then hold both volume buttons and the power button until the Samsung logo shows up. Release the keys. This will bring you to the stock recovery. Select install update.zip to get into CWM. Flash the theme first. After the theme is flashed, you'll still be in CWM. Flash the theme fix. You're done.

Then you are using rom manager, I suggest doing it manually, by putting the theme on your sd card and also the theme fix, its very easy to do,
Just apply sd card:update zip
Then select install zip from sd, then find the zip, flash the theme, then flash the theme fix, then go back and reboot system.
One other thing that helps me is fixing permissions after a flash anything. It is also an option in rom manager

Hey you rock for responding. One last question: Will this be compatible with the ROM i'm running and do you ever wipe data/cache before flashing a theme?

Yes, when you select the theme, you add it after.

No need to. Just flash.
So even though the link for the theme fix is in the super clean v0.4 thread, it will work for blackhole 3.0? Sorry to be redundant
yes it will work for any dl09 rom *when a dj05 theme is applied* but flash the fix AFTER the theme
Worked great! thanks guys
I have tried everything I can think of. Tried different radios, different ROM's, everything! I'm at wits-end! Every time I upgrade from DL09 to ANY 2.2 leak or ROM (and I mean ANY), the install goes smoothly but after the boot the screen sleeps and will not wake. I have duplicated it on every available leak/ROM and none work. Please! Does anyone have any ideas? I want some of that Froyo goodness.
Did you wipe both data and cache from CWM at least twice before installing any Froyo rom?

Are you talking about the first boot after loading the ROM, and the screen is black? The first boot always takes longer, and most of these ROMs don't have a boot animation. Are you letting the phone boot up completely?
Odin to DI01. Root with Adryn's new root instructions. Flash EB01 modem and your ROM of choice. Should fix everything like it did for me.
Yes. I wiped and wiped.

No, not the first boot. It boots completely and works just fine until it sleeps and then the phone wakes but the screen won't.

Ahhhhh. Now there's something I haven't tried. I will give this a shot and post the result. Thank you for your help in advance!
still dead
Ok. I Odin restored DI01 and rebooted. Everything went fine. I then installed the EB01 modem and CWM-all via odin. All good so far. I booted into Red CWR and installed super clean EB01 and rebooted. Again, the screen will NOT wake from sleep! I'm gonna pull my hair out!
HELP!

This might be a pain, but try doing all of that again but this time flashing a stock EB01 rom. Play around with it and make sure there's no issues, then flash a superclean rom.
That's what I did when I had your issue and it was resolved like that.
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.
Ok so I had my Fascinate running on the EB01 Kernel and using the stock ROM. I tried Kaos v5 ROM and tested it. Since many things arent working in that version i decided to go back to my stock EB01. When i wiped the data and cache and i restored my nandroid, it was mixed up with Kaos ROM still. So i decided to flash the EB01 kernel again through Odin and now my phone just keeps FORMATING/DELETING DATA. It stuck after the Samsumg logo and wipes data and reboots and keeps doing the same thing.! I dont know what to do i've tried everything i can think of and many things that i have make worked but im out of ideas! someone please help me out to fix this problem. (Hopefully my phone isnt completely gone!)
This is a hell of Development thread man congratulations

Did you disable voodoo? May have a date with ODIN full. Going back to D101 usually fixes most problems, but, you can try the DL09 package first.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I don't understand why people are so hesistant to use the full odin packages. 99% of the time it will fix your problems and in about 5 min you are back up and running.
DI01
DL09
You could also try this odin package to get you straight up to EB01 though I haven't tried it myself
EB01
I had a similar issue restoring a backup from CM7 alpha, phone just boot looped. The solution for me was to battery pull, go back into recovery, rewipe, and reflash an EB01 rom (i used superclean 2.4). Let it boot up, then reboot recovery and restore your backup.

How about post it in the correct place so people don't get pissed and ignore it?
ODIN back to stock. DI01 usually works for me. Or try one of the EB01 odin packages w/ root and CWM
Be sure to make several Nandroid backups because sometimes one is messed up. (Thanks Jensiz )
THANKS
Yeah i got it to work i just went and flashed DL01 and it worked perfectly thanks guys!
EDIT: Ok so I flashed it back to 2.1 stock, i'm gonna try flashing Bionix again, is there something I should do before flashing it? Am I in the wrong version or something? Help!
Ok so here's the situation:
I was running Axura 2.0.3 or something and things were ok, but I wanted to flash to something better, so I downloaded the Bionix Frost 2.2.1 ROM and flashed it. It didn't have any of my contacts or SMS so I went to flash it back to my last backup, which was 12/15/10, and Axura. I go to Clockwork Mod, and run the nandroid backup and now when my phone boots up, it goes through the screens, and freezes on the Galaxy S screen, then everything turns black and when I touch the screen, all the bottom buttons light up, but nothing happens, and the only way to get that to turn off is to pull the battery.
Is there any way I can fix this? I have Odin, but i'm not sure exactly what to do here.
flash a kernel. nandroid does not restores kernel.

First things first, calm down.
This is not hard, but it can seem that way if you freak.
Did you read the guides? Did you download rom manager, flash cwr, go to stock recovery and reinstall packages (twice maybe)?
i really think it's about flashing a kernel.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So what kernel do I need? I'm back at full 2.1 stock, and I want to get back to my Axura 12/15/10 nandroid, do I need a kernel?
That axura is 2.2 right? So any 2.2 kernels should be fine,
flash nandroid then before rebooting flash kernel.
In the phone information it says my Kernel is 2.6.29? It says firmware version is 2.1update 1.
If I just want to flash to Bionix, do I need to update a kernel or can I just go straight ahead and do that?
yes. you don't need to flash a kernel when you flash bionix.
You only need to flash a kernel when you are restoring a nandroid backup.
Thanks, you helped a lot.
One last question: how do I move my contacts and SMS over? Whenever I flash a new ROM I seem to lose it.
