Can't get Verizon update any longer

Hello all,
Been rambling around the forums in ninja mode trying to gain enough knowledge to not mess up my phone before trying to mod it but alas best laid plans....
Anyhoo I was working to put the Froyo leak on my phone and everything was good till I did a cwm wipe of the phone and wammo it had problems. I managed to use Odin to get it back to barebones stock, lost my high score in Angry Birds too dang it.
Now that I am back to this point I tried to run the Verizin updates and it downloads and goes into install mode on reboot and it dies at Updating Modem section. At that point I saw I was rooted so I removed that and tried again, no dice amigo. Did a factory wipe, nothing. Cleared the cache, fail again.
If it helps its trying to do a dh12 to di01 update. Got any ideas?

When you went to stock did you flash the stock kernel and stock recovery as well? I had to do this when I updated to dl09

Good question and yes I believe I did, I followed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782204&highlight=return+stock thread to get the job done. Let me try it one more time.
Also I load the PIT file with each md5 correct?

Looks like I fixed it on the second time around. Not sure what I missed but the update went through. No worries. Might pay someone to hand hold my through getting DL30 on my phone cause even as an IT guy I'm missing something every time.

Strong thing is, once the DI01 update happens it actually doesn't find any other updates...wifi is off.

VZW pulled the DL09 update due to the e911 bug until it is fixed

Makes good sense. Sooo anyone wanna tutorialize me on how to de-crappify my phone? Its worth a donation from me.

You're on di01 right?
I would odin the dl09 package, then use cwm to flash super clean 2.2. Clean, debloated froyo goodness

Sounds good. The problem lies in me somehow fudging up the process at some point and having to set my phone back to stock again.

Where did you see this?
"VZW pulled the DL09 update due to the e911 bug until it is fixed"
Have any sources on this one? I really would like to see them.
Not doubting you, I have just been rebooting and *228 for 3 days trying to get this update only to see this quote...

VZW sent a message to all Fascinate owners the other night acknowledging the bug and a fix being in the works. Why would they continue to push it out after that?

New EA update is being pushed out.
Verizon told me to go to a store as some phones will not accept OTA updates. Seems stupid and like a lie, but whatever...

He's right. Google the source if you need it. Please don't take this response as me being snarky, I don't mean it that way.

I think the biggest issue people are having is not being careful and following the directions perfectly.
I was new two days ago and did this with only one hiccup.
1. I followed the Beginner's thread in this forum to get me rooted. First pass with Odin failed as the one click code didn't recognize the phone. 2nd pas worked. Trick was to just turn on USB debugging and plug in phone, do not then click the mount notification. Leave that off as USB debugging was all that was needed.
2. I installed Mod Manager and Titanium backup right after. This was part of the main directions and Titanium (though not mentioned) allowed me to save all my specific apps that had important data, like my 100% completed Angry Birds.
3. I then followed the directions in the developer forum for the How To.. install DL30 for Froyo. This scared me at first because the CW recovery stalled when wiping data. I waited over 30 minutes before getting the courage to pull the battery and start over. Figured its only deleting user data, should be ok. It was and then it worked the 2nd time without fail. I did reboot in normal recovery, but running the update.zip put it back into CW.
4. After that, I rebooted numerous times, checked all stock apps, upgraded firmware in camera, and used Titanium to add back my apps I bought or downloaded as well as restored my bookmarks and memo notes.
In the end I've had no bugs/issues as others have reported. Only functionality not tested is bluetooth as I don't use it for anything.
I hope this helps and if you are walking through it all again, I would be glad to help specific questions based on my experience.
I was DL09 stock OTA at first. I'd recommend getting rooted and using Odin to get the stock DL09 from these forums flashed before you try to put DL30 on. As a developer myself, it just makes sense to always put on builds that are in order of each other. So DI01, then DL09, then DL30.

superchunkwii, thanks for the feedback. When I booted into cwm recovery mode it hung too. I think my fatal mistake was I booted in regular recovery mode and did my wipe....sad. I should have just rebooted and went back in cwm like you did.
As far as freezing apps I did not know freezing angry birds would save its data. Boy was my wife is mad (she plays it the most).
I did everything else on cue so I will try again and see how she goes. IT CAN BE TAUGHT! As the genie says.
On another note I did download the EA28 update today, can I install the DL30 Rom or do I need to "downgrade" to DL09 to get this done? Anyone try?

1. Not freeze.. that makes it so app won't run. Backup with Titanium Backup is what you need I think.
2. What is EA28? I don't think the fascinate has had that build.

Just got an update EA28 any ideas what it does
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

EA28 build is the update to fix the emrgency dialing bug in DL09. As I understand, it is otherwise the same as DL09. I am by no means an expert though.

Cool. Can anyone confirm this?

why does this happen?

After I odined back to stock like 2 times, I flashed bionix. At first I had to push the froyo jl5 kernel with voodoo because rom manager couldn't install cwm. The everytime I reboot my phone, settings reset. Why?

try the KA7 kernel w/Voodoo and see if you get the same result.. any reason you want to use the JL5 kernel that Supercurio stated causes some problems in the OP???

dont' use cwm just flash through recovery wipe completely first manually,

Sounds like you have some gremlins in your phone. I had a market issue that I tried everything on, and I mean everything. So, for kicks I installed the TW version of bionix and it fixed it right back up. Give it a shot. There's usually no clear answer for these things, but I always keep a version of rom manager and titanium backup on my external sd card for quick flashing. Shoot me a PM if your phone still gives you grief.

[Q] EB01 - Application not remembering preferencess

Hey folks, I'm hoping one of you can help me out with an issue that just cropped up on my phone. I've been running EB01 since it's release and have had no issues whatsoever except for today when I noticed my apps (Titananium Backup, Tapatalk, Root Explorer) we're remembering preferences anymore and/or every time I exit from them and launch again....it thinks it's the first run again.
Did something hose up my permissions/ownerships? Only think I did recently was flash the de-binged browser via CWM.
Any ideas??

What are you running? It may be a permissions problem. Have you tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it?

I'm having a similar issue. Help!

I was just about to start a thread about this. I'm having the same problem. I upgraded from blackhole 4.1 (DL30) to Superclean 2.2 EB01 with voodoo lagfix. I got the red CWM flashed via odin and proceeded to install the EB01 modem and the superclean 2.2v (EB01).
The first time I flashed was a disaster, there were issues with Odin completing the flash, so I had to do USB pulls about 4 times (which ended up giving me full "light blue" screens during download mode at times).
After getting Odin to cooperate, I was able to flash the Superclean 2.2v (EB01), and then I restored everything from Titanium Backup, which worked fine until I restarted the phone or left it alone for a couple of hours. Everything would force close (like ADWLauncer Ex, forcing me to use ONLY TWLauncher) and all my preferences were lost. Like gmail would have to resync as if it were new, all the EULA dialogs would come up (like in android market), my trillian profiles were all lost, if i turned off haptic feedback that would turn back on, my ringtones would go back to the defaults, etc.
So I read some other thread in the Development section which said to reflash, and do not do any restores at all. So I reflashed with Super clean 2.3v (EB01), but it happened again, all my preferences would be lost. I also tried to do "fix permissions" from RED CWM, but it just ran for like a fraction of a second and didn't seem like it did anything, as the problem persisted.
I'm planning to go back to DL30 or even DL09 to see if my phone functioned properly or not.
If anyone has a solution to this problem please help!
- Superclean 2.3v (EB01)

I'm thinking it has something to do with flashing either the De-Binged browser or the new market update. Maybe something in the framework-res is getting hosed up?
I just did a wipe and reflashed plain old EB01 and I'm not going to flash any changes and see if the problem comes up again.

I'm having the exact same problem. I've been all the way down to DJ05 to see what happens, and when I come back to superclean 2.2 voodoo-ed, I get force closes on everything the first time I restart - that issue was due to the new feature froyo added "automatic restore" in settings > privacy. I got that taken care of by uninstalling all apps.
However, when I restart now, my entire phone defaults back to cleared data. I'm talking every setting that I could think of (usb debugging, sound, brightness, contacts, security pin cleared). I don't get it at all. Everything else has been working right though.
Just thought I would share - I'm kinda still in limbo till I figure out what I should do.

I wonder if it has to do with the type of EB01 we're using or the CWM. I flashed CWM red via Odin, rather than updating via Rom Manager or update.zip. Also I used the EB01 Walkthrough in the fascinate developers section, the link is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948722
***UPDATE***
I resolved the problem... I think. I noticed there was a difference in the file names of the EB01 Modem in the walkthrough link I provided on the last line of the paragraph above and the EB01 Modem given in the original EB01 stock thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948679). I flashed with the eb01a_modem.tar given in the stock thread and then upgraded to Super Clean with Voodoo (v. 2.4 as of this writing). The market DID restore all the apps, before I was able to stop it, but after I restarted, there were no force closes nor were there any loss of preferences. I hope the modem issue was what was wrong...

Started doing it again this morning. This time I did not flash any mode via ROM Manager. Only things I did was de-bloat using Root Explorer and Titanium Backup.
Not every app started forgetting preferences, some still reemebered. Any of the devs have an idea of what's going on here? I'm running the plain old, fully-bloated EB01 ROM. No voodoo, no de-odexed, or anything like that.

I think it's a dbdata partition issue. I can't say how to fix because it's above my paygrade, but you may have to wait until it is officially released.

Try the Odin back to stock...DI01, wipe everything. Reroot and and get cwm. Then ODIN EB01 Modem Tar followed by super clean 2.4 install through cwm. Be sure to wipe data and cache before flashing super clean.

I there a reason I have to go all the way back to DI01, or can I use any All-In-One Odin package that writes the ROM, Kernel, & Radio?

I suggest that typically before anything else b/c it seems to help most. I've never experienced these issues but many suggest this is a viable method to remedy certain problems. Don't see why you couldn't try the odin DL09 all-in-one and wipe the hell out of it and try again. Good Luck.

Is the corruption in the dbdata partition caused by an older version of CWM or a problem in the EB01 ROM itself?
Is it safe to go back to EB01?

I believe it's currently inconclusive. There is speculation about exactly what causes it hence the reason I suggest wiping everything and then flashing the most recently provided stuff. That way it'll narrow things down. Someone can correct me, but if you odin back to stock, I'm 99% sure super cleans 2.4 voodoo kernel includes the new cmw. I was on green cmw unitl I flashed the seperate voodoo kernel posted by jt. I haven't had any issues.

Its almost certainly dbdata corruption. The cause is...yeah questionable. Seems most common with voodoo with the current hack being used to get it working with froyo.

I've never run Voodoo on my phone, but I did my initial install of EB01 with one of the older "Green" CWM versions.

Any other suggestions or fixes?
I went all the way back to DI01, then flashed to EB01 using an Odin All-In-One and now 48-72 hours later, my apps (most notably Tapatalk, Root Explorer, and Titanium Backup) think it's the first time they've run every time I launch it.
Shouldn't have going back to DI01 fixed the corruption since it reformats the ROM partition? Also, something I notice was that flashing to DI01 or EB01 using odin did not get rid of the new CWM Recovery.
Would running the permission fix correct the issue?

No...are you running voodoo? And what rom are you using?

EB01 Fully Bloated, Non-Voodoo Kernel
Baseband version: S:i500.04.V.EB01
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: SCH-I500.EB01

http://forum.androidcentral.com/ver...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-15-a.html
Try This...
This will hopefully repartition and clean dbdata corruption. BTW, I couldn't get 2.2 to run on my phone until I odin flashed a ROM which allowed me to then flash Adrynalyne's 2.4.
DI01, DJ05, DL09 did not work for the fix. Eclair worked fine, but Froyo would not work until I flashed a 2.2 odin.

Do I need to check the "Re-Partition" option in Odin when flashing or does it do it automatically?

need help, several subjects lol

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?

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.

Reboot Loop

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!)

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!
