[Q] Quick DJ05 Question - Fascinate General

Hello, I looked around a bit and couldn't find an answer, so I figured i would just post this and ask.
I have two (probably) easy questions.
1. I'm on DI01 right now (superfast and superclean), can i go straight to DL09 or do i have to go DJ05 then DL09?
2. Can anyone give me a link to download odin? The link in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788099
happens to be broken for me.

anyone?

You can go straight to DL09. I have Odin shared on my Google Site page with instructions for upgrading as well, see here.

Thanks.
You think Voodoo is worth it or not?

I use voodoo as it makes installing apps a lot faster and lags the phone less. Since voodoo5 and red clockwork, it's been much more reliable and easier to use.

Dl09 was a success.. I'm on the non-voodoo kernel and I'll probally flash voodoo tommarow.

That's good to hear. The only thing you need to remember after moving to voodoo is to be aware that you're using it when switching kernels. If you flash a non-voodoo kernel without first disabling voodoo, it can be a big headache. However, with the current state of development, most things are moving toward voodoo since it has become more stable and reliable.

Yep yep. Thanks for the quick replies and all the help you have been. I have the voodoo zip file on my sd card (the one from the DL09 thread). All I need to do is flash that one right?

Yeah, flash it the same way you did the other kernel and rom. When you restart, there will be a voice giving an approx. time to convert the partitions to the new file system. It will hold on the Samsung logo while doing the conversion and then go to the boot animation when done. I think the time to convert is anywhere from 5-10 minutes, depending on how much data you have. Disabling voodoo will take a few minutes longer and has the same voice time estimates.

Alright. I might just do this right now then.

Voodoo took about 5 minutes to get to a fully usable phone. Thank you very much! My phone feels brand new and ultra fast

i just installed dl09, and flashed the right rom. I restarted and am wondering how long it takes to load the rom. I did not flash the kernel right away. I was going to do that after the rom. So far I only have a black screen about 3 minutes in. Whats the deal?

You need to flash the kernel too
Swyped from my SCH-I500 using the XDA app.

just restarted flashed rom and then kernel both. black screen with bottom buttons all lit up for about 20 minutes now. help.

What rom and kernel did you flash? And you flashed the modem in the pda section of odin?
Swyped from my SCH-I500 using the XDA app.

yes i used the pda section and it passed just fine. i then unplugged phone, put batt back in. started phone back up and used rom manager to get to recovery. at first i just flashed blackhole 3.0 rom but i had his kernel and several components downloaded. i was paranoid so i flashed rom then reboot. black screen after samsung for a long time. i then reflashed rom w/ kernel. still got hung. then i went back and flashed everything i had dl including boot animation, digital clock, everything along with rom and kernel again. this time got to blackhole boot animation then has been stuck on that screen for about 40 min. it is the boot with the galaxy and stars with a small android robot in the lower right corner. thinking of doing the odin d101 package. wont that return me to stock. i don't want to but any suggestions.

What is the best kernel for vibrant

Guys im ruining on nero v3 and jk6 modern and the voodoo 5 stick kernel that came with nero v3, with voodo enabled. so problem is that I run out of battery fast faster than stock jl6 on 2.1,so what is the best kernel with good battery life and performance. Stock kernel gives me some lag. So il avoid that one.
FYI: Voodoo will ALWAYS drain your battery faster than stock.
it happened to me too. i went in recovery, advance and wipe the battery stat and now the battery last much longer.

Why do you say? Voodoo uses stock kernels except it converts partitions to ext4.

I'm not entirely sure why but I think its because the system has to constantly convert the data to ext4 rather than having a native rfs. Don't take my explanation as fact though. But from personal experience and countless posts from others, its known that Voodoo will always drain faster than stock.
The easiest way to root your device would be to go into the development section and there is a post at the very top that says the vibrant bible and download the one click root or one of the other methods listed. That will root your device then u need to go to the market and download Rom Manager. Then find a custom Rom that u like and put it on the internal sd card. I am using Eugene's macnut r14. After u put it where it goes then go into Rom Manager and click flash clockwork mod recovery. It will have a list of phones click on the vibrant. After it downloads click on boot into recovery. It may take u to the stock recovery, if it does move down using the volume down button and select "Reinstall Packages" using the power button it should then take u to clockwork mod. In there click install zip from sd card. Scroll down using the volume down button and select it using the power button again. Then once u find the rom click the power button again once it is highlighted. It will ask are u sure that u want to install this. Scroll down and select yes. And that is it you are then done and now will have 2.2 if the rom u picked had it. Also before u install the rom but after u root the device download Titanium Backup and make a backup of all your apps and that will also save your data with those apps. If u need any help feel free to P.M. me because that is easier then finding this thread again.

Im no noob when it comes to flashing but I flashed back to stock using odin last week, immediately afterwards I flashed back to nero v3. So today I flashed eugenes super io kernel after disabling voodoo of course, went into oclf to enable the lag fix but to my surprise its saying my phone isn't rooted?? So the option of installing the lag fix isn't available to me. Yet I've been able to flash custom roms???? I don't get it

Bluetooth

For some reason I can't turn on bluetooth. Here what I did. Flashed all in one dl09. Rooted. Pushed cwr through odin. Made back up. Flashed supah clean v.4. Flashed blackaosp theme. Flashed dl09 theme fix. Now bluetooth won't turn on. Anyone have any ideas to try? Thanks

It's recommended to use a dl09 compatible kernel, and if you haven't flashed one, that means you're probably on a DI01 kernel, which might account for your BT not working (and probably other things you haven't noticed yet).
I thought the dl09 all in one pack for odin had the kernel? Ok....now to flash a kernel. I have Imnuts -50 uv novoodoo kernel on my sd card. I may have to try it. Do any of the all in one packs for odin have the kernels in them?

Actually, I've no clue about that (not used an all-in-one pack before). I assumed (possibly wrongly) that you were still on the original kernel.

Anyone else having this issue with EB01/EB16?

I've asked on a couple boards and can't find an answer/solution.
Ever since I went to EB01 I've had one problem only...that is when I reboot ,for any reason, all my apps start force closing when it starts back up...i then have to re-flash the rom to fix it and re-install sgml the apps again.
Am I the only person that had this problem? Is there a fix for it? I'm currently on SC2.6, but have been on 2.4 & 2.5 with the same problem...i even went back to stock eclair and re-rooted and went thru the process again with no luck.
Any suggestions would be appreciated

Try the odin eb01 tar. After you flash the all in one odin file, you should be fine. It has to do with a corrupted dbdata partition.
Make sure you use pda when flaking. After you can flash whatever rom you like.
Ah...i didn't do the all in one package...i just pushed the eb01 modem via odin and flagged the rom separately...could that be the culpret?

If your pushing a all in one I don't believe you do.. I know you don't need to with the di01 all in one.

Yes, this is always smart to do.
Especially because the eb01 tars are not true all in one tars.
I've had the same issue, and I have tried reflashing the ROM and the EB01 modem. I also pushed the new red CMW, and still.. no luck. I will post back if going to DI01 and then to EB01 works. Right now, I am running FrankenClean 2.5, red CMW for Froyo, and EB01 modem.
When you reboot, all third party apps fc, and on boot, several apps fc before I personally open them. Also, many of the settings are wiped (brightness, volume, etc). BUT.. the home screens are the same, and all the apps still appear (but don't run). It seems as if something is corrupted or something, but I still need to dig further.
Does this information help? I hope I can find a solution becuase I much prefer Froyo superclean to stock DL09.
yep...thats the same thing that was going on with me...how did you go to eb01? seperate modem, rom, or the all in one package?
Thanks to RacerFXD, the problem is fixed! All you have to do is push the all in one odin package found here:
http://redirectingat.com/?id=1629X5...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html
then reboot into CWR and reflash whatever ROM you were running and all is well.
This is the Debloated/Deodexed version BTW. It's the one i pushed. I guess it really doesn't matter which one you do, seeing as how you'll probably flash a different ROM anyways...
Fixed
My issue is fixed (for now). Apparently all I needed to do was to go back to stock, and then I needed to reapply the changes. Something last time must have gotten messed up, but all is good now. If it comes back, I will use the EB01 all-in-one which should be quicker.
Here is my process:
Flash DI01 All-in-one package via Odin (adryn's Odin package)
Flash EB01 Modem via Odin (separate "just" modem)
Flash CMW red via Odin (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942021)
Factory Reset/Clear Cache/Clear Dalvik Cache
Flash Superclean 2.5 (aka FrankenClean 2.5)
Thanks,

Wow, that was an experience. Literally weeks of perusing the forums until I had a grasp of the concepts, then dove in. Rooted my stock phone and flashed to sc 2.6 non voodoo. Total noob at Android and it all works so far. Thanks to all involved with this site, it required dozens of threads to figure it all out. The most confusion came out of the fact that CWM gets removed when rebooting from stock. Another week of research and the themes will start. Thanks again.

[Q] Safe to flash a kernel with voodoo enabled?

hi. I have a samsung vibrant running the official FroYo rom. I flashed a stock+voodoo JA6 kernel and I cant disable the lagfix. I have created the "disable voodoo" file in the voodoo folder and when I reboot I hear the voice say "converting filesytem" it boots up, and when I run quadrant I see 1496, I've tried to reboot several times, and it won't disable. Is it possible to flash another kernel over with odin? I would like my phone stock again.
Do you have red clockwork? If so disable voodoo through there, but I haven't had a issue flashing kernels without disabling voodoo.
If you flashing a voodoo rom to a voodoo rom, usually not a problem ,but some of the roms are built very differently, and not knowing which rom is compatible with which, to me, it is way easier just to disable voodoo then flash
But i have flashed without disabling and and only got soft bricked a couple of times.......
when in doubt....disable.
i realize its a total pain in the ass, but whenever i got lazy and softbricked, i always ended up wishing i just showed a little patience and disabled.....no one wants to ODIN unless they have to.
OP,
Have you tried the Voodoo Toggle app in the market to disbale voodoo?
I have tried to disable it in clockwork, it just says its converting, but after running quadrant it still shows 1500

If you want your phone stock use the AIO toolbox to odin to stock and then use kies to update to 2.2.
Delete the disable voodoo file you made, reboot, try the app again

Voodoo lagfix, I messed up my phone, help!

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...

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

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.
