R2 Gingerbread Voodoo Issues - Vibrant General

Dear XDA World,
I have just recently rooted my phone using the superoneclick root on my 2.2 Froyo Vibrant after a good month of research. Currently, I am running Eugene's R2 Final Gingerbread ROM, and I love it; it is very stable and intricately in tune with the Vibrant's functionality. Now, my problem currently is flashing to a voodoo lag fix (frustrating as hell). Anyway, I have tried the JL4 voodoo. zip, because that is what this ROM is closest to, I believe. When I copied to SD card, and went into clockwork recovery to install, it failed, saying, "installation failed," or something similar to that. I thought that voodoo wasn't working for some reason, so I tried to flash Nero v3's ROM: same outcome. If anyone would take time to help out a new user, I would very much appreciate the help. I wish to put voodoo lag fix on this R2 ROM, to be clear. Please be descriptive.

please redownload the kernel and reflash.

You need to make sure the zip is on the internal sdcard. This could be your issue.

u are wrong if kernel was on his external sd and since clockwork dont mount external sd he cant even acces it so its imposible to flash something that is on your external card.

Bartek, more specific, please.
And yes, I'm certain it's on my internal... Haha.

R E D O W N L O A D the file again and R E F L A S H , that is specific enough for You ? )

I have done that before. Same outcome.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

dude .when you went to clockwork to flash does it say installation failed or signature verification failed ? something like that didnt expain what your problem was

Yeah, read my first post again, I said it says "installation failed" and said it was aborting. This was all in clockwork.

lol redownload the file again , reflash , or can you download anyother kernel instead of voodoo 4 and try ? or odin back to stock JfD with pit file and chceck repartition or if anyone knows better ............please post .

You sould really make sure the zip package is ZIP package not TAR package too, ZIP=CLOCKWORK, TAR=ODIN ,

I don't use Odin, man. It's a .zip package; example: I am rooted using R2 Gingerbread .zip. Can I not voodoo because I am missing a script or have the wrong kind? I've seen this in a few forums.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Oh and another thing is make sure u have enough room on internal sd about 1gb or more

why wont you flash DEAD HORSE BY EUGENE since GINGER R2 is released by EUGENE and DEAD HORSE is released by EUGENE also they fit like glowe , and you get ext 4 or JFS whichever u prefer .

That sounds like a good idea. What kernal of Dead Horse should I get? Does it matter in regards to compatibility?

A link would be wonderful. Haha.

i cant recomend anything because , i cant because .... it mit wipe your internal sd but http://eb-productions.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=samsungsgs&thread=28&page=1#916 is the latest and safest before flashing read the thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936928

Good deal. I will look into that today. Thank you.

Put the voodoo.zip on your phones sd card, go into Clockwork mod recovery mode, choose install zip from sd card, and choose the voodoo.zip file, and the process will take awhile, so be patient

Voodoo works great on Axura. My phone has zero lag no matter what I throw at it.
Ill try it then thanks
i just did it, didnt take long at all. Does that mean something went wrong? Is there a way to see if its installed?

Go to the Team Whiskey site. There's a thread on the Voodoo install and uninstall. It very different then OCLF yet still easy just not as..
I don't even run a lag fix anymore, Axura 2.x is quite snappy without it. And I find Voodoo while it works well, it tangles up in my system more then I prefer because I'm always flashing something.
But that said, Axura and Voodoo and your flying.
Good luck.

Some questions about flashing a rom

i recently rooted my epic and am on 2.2 froyo dk28 build. i want to try the nebula rom. my clockwork version looks like to to low to be able to do the nebula rom.... How do i update it/where do i find a different version? and also where is the dk28 modem that it says i need. any help greatly appreciated!
Nebula rom is a great choice. You'll want to search for one click root 2.5.5 download it, unzip it, click run and it will put clockwork 3.x on there and convert all your files to ext4. Before you reboot do the wipe x3 then flash your rom everything should be good to go.
Editj Hey I'm sorry search for oneclickrootcwm3 that's the one you want. It's a sticky in the development thread.

i did use the 2.5.5 to root my phone, and it put clockwork mod 2.5.1.0 on my phone.....
edit: nevermind i found the cwm 3.0+ zip file. going to do that now, however, i still need this modem thing that they are talking about in the thread, does anyone know anything about that?
yeah I meant oneclickrootcwm3 sorry.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
so do i need to worry about that modem thing or is that included in the noobnl download of this cwm3.0?
No if you already have the dk28 rom on there you are good to go.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
thank you so much for the help! one more question, when i flash this rom, what option do i choose: "apply update from sd card" or "install zip from sdcard"?
nevermind, i did some reading looks like its "install zip from sdcard"
"install zip from sd card" then pick "choose zip to install" and it will let you install the zip without renaming it.

Also one last thing if you don't know how to odin back to stock I suggest reading up to it. It's very useful if anything screws up......there is a wiki page on it.

b-eock: I just want to get some clarification on the installation process. I believe the installation process for getting to MIUI changed a while ago where you no longer need to flash the cm7-initial kernel, efs backup, etc. You just have to be on 2.1/2.2 bootloaders and have CWM installed then flash the MIUI zip (someone please correct me if I'm wrong).
Would this process not be the same for GalaxySense or am I missing something?

Which kernel? When you flash MIUI, it includes it's own kernel correct? So would it be the MIUI stock kernel that you need?
And about backing up EFS, if MIUI no longer requires that step, as in it does this as part of the flash process now, why is it necessary to do it before flashing MIUI? Just trying to get clarification. Seems kind of strange to me.
This states using the new CM7/MIUI flashing procedures as well.
I will try this in the night!

GalaxySense has existed since April for the Galaxy S i9000 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044637). This is simply a port to run it on the Captivate (which has also existed since April or May by following the Escapists instructions).
Projects like this is why an AOSP based kernel is so important. AOSP removes all of Samsung's proprietary issues and allows any other ROM that has been ported to AOSP to be ported to the Captivate. CyanogenMod, MIUI, and GalaxySense are all using the same sources to build from..

Yes roms in the developement section here can all usually be flashed through cwm unless otherwise stated. And I've never needed to unroot, but odin is a windows gui for flashing tar's(which are roms usually official and modems). You use Odin when you want to go back to complete stock, or modems usually. You can do other things with Odin such as flash custom recoveries like cwm. Odin is your bestfriend if you mess something up, always make sure to use a premium blackberry or other thick cable besides the one that came with the phone when using odin.(most people have difficulties with stock cable.)

Just pm'd you with advice and the reason they pulled it from the market is cuz eclair 2.1 is not supported anymore. I used to use odin to go back to stock 2.1 and then i had a Overstock kernel that I used though odin and it would give me cmw .The only thing is that u need to dl to ypur phone the rom u want first,odin overstock kernel .tar (i think)
Download this update.zip file to flash CWR.
Exel, your everywhere man. Ok I have been spoiled by this app in the past, how do I flash it lol ? I went to recovery,but there are only like 3options and flashing a zip is not one of them... I felt like I knew my way around the vibrant until today. I feel like a total noob

No u have internal and external sds.unless u have a Vib 4g which only has external. Internal is where u have all ur files e.g. dcim, android ,data,download, etc.paste it onto that so u have a file called update.zip along with all those before mentioned files
