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

I think it's called reinstall packages in the recovery and it might take a few tries for it to stick
Ill try it a few more times, place the file in DCIM correct?

No onto SD..
Edit have u tried rom toolbox...
Also I pm d u with more advice
That may have been the problem on my 1st try. But SD seems to be the external
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
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

Now dl cm7 build #182 completely on ur phone after that seach for" Overstock kernel zip"preferably on xda and dl that yhen open k.f. app and flash kernel,wait until it completes the ext4 partition (like 5 min) ,pull battery go into recovery which should be now green letters and install cm7

Ok, I've rooted my phone before but had to reset the phone to all stock because I downloaded an impaled version of angry birds to get the ads off and make the game run smoother....never doin that again lol. Anyway, I tried using the one click root like I did the 1st time but its not findin my phone. I think it says something like it does not recognize adf internally or externally. I downloaded the right samsung driver, put the debugging on, and used the usb cord that came wit the phone and it still doesn't work. I already have CWM (I pushed it on the phone wit odin) and have the stock kernel. now I just need root again

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

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.

Ok I've managed to get my device rooted and overclocked, I have Bootstrapper and Clockwork Mod. My question is am I deodexed and am I ready for themes now
No, you have three options:
1) Manually deodex your phone
2) Install a Rom that's already been deodexed
3) Download and flash your stock files for deodexed ones
Ok how do I know which themes have been deodexed already and how do I know what apex I have

If you browse the droid x themes and apps section of xda, the theme creator will tell you what has been deodexed or not. I know the 928 blackglass theme is deodexed already but I do not know of many themes that come deodexed. Of you wish to deodex your phone, search google for "xUltimate 2.2 Manually deodex your phone".
As for apex...this is a custom ROM, so this will not be running on yout phone yet, you would have to install it of this is the ROM you wish to run.

I have a feeling that after I deodex I'm still not done ...lol I actually tried loading the DXred theme the other day and it worked ..then I noticed that the dialer button didn't work then it killed my service ...ya think that happened because I was not properly deodexed?

Probably. After you deodex you should be ready for loading up a custom theme. Be sure to read any instructions specific to the theme you apply.

Ah, ok. Xultimate is an application that runs on your computer, not your phone.
If you have your phone rooted, and know how to use the Droid X bootstrap to install .zip files, then download this file:
http://www.mediafire.com/?gvvgnum0uma2huk
Run this with Droid X bootstrap and you will be deodexed, and not need xultimate.
Ok after a lot of research I finally understand the whole thing.....most if the themes I see on line you need a custom ROM to run them which of course I'm running stock therefore I have to choose from the stock ones which is cool. I found a pretty cool one called Executive Red and it's working perfect. Thank you very much for all of your help

No problem. Glad to hear you got where you want to be. I would recommend just doing some research, and when you feel like you're comfortable, try out one of the custom ROMs. I regret not jumping into one a little sooner. They really have a great advantage many times.
Look into themes from Bignadad. He does themes for liberty, rubix, and did one for the original 2.3.15 OTA. Check him out on twitter as well, and you can keep up on what he is working on. I would recommend Bignadad by far, he is in my opinion the most thorough with his themes, and they always look amazing.

Yes, it will say its there, but you cannot use it without paying (kinda). There is another mod, where you start the program, then put the plane in airplane mode, then disable airplane mode and it works as if you had subscribed to the service...
or there is the tbh hack.. which they say is unethical, and they don't condone, so please read the whole page before using this... just a disclaimer.

Absolutely. You download the zip and flash it through recovery. And for many roms, you can have ROMmanager do all the work for you.

Be careful with Rom Manager. It said it needed to update Clockwork Recovery and in the process of rebooting the phone, the recovery image is corrupted and my phone will no longer boot into recovery.
I haven't tried reflashing the recovery image via adb yet, but hope it will work.
You dont have to use rom manager, you can just navigate with the browser and download as if you use a computer. The file would be located in /sdcard/download
The only problem is the data speeds.

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.

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.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
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?
