This can be flashed regardless of what kernel you're on, as long as you have CWM available. You can choose to wipe cache/dalvik if you want, but it isn't necessary from my experience.

If you were on stock and had an update for My Verizon, you may need to use Titanium Backup to finish removing it as I found out. The same likely goes for any other apps that were in stock but were updated from the Market.

I'll start removing more things then as I figure out what it is they do and if they are necessary for normal use of the phone. There are some apks left that I'm not sure what they do yet, so I'm leaving them in for now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] s44:
If you keep the media hub, you should probably revert it to ED1 so the can't play on 3G "feature" is gone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] uefcommad:
wondering if you can look into what the application Keytrace 2.2.1 is for i see it in titinam backup
[Verizon Droid Charge] JKChad:
I'm gonna be the guy who ask whats needed to put tw back on here. I already dropped the tw30launcher.apk back in system/app but its not recognizing it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ZeppelinJ0:
Ok so after installing this im no longer able to send sms messages anyone else having this issue?
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Ah, yes I did. It seemed to be creating a wakelock for me, so I put it back until I can look into it. Unfortunately, I'm considering getting CWM fixed to be a little higher priority, so it may be a little until I can get TW replaced unless someone would like to help out. I've also heard another ROM may be coming soon similar to this (but likely better) so that will also be something to watch for ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
Yes, please. A fully working cwm would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PorscheGuy:
Haha, care to elaborate? :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Grillrd:
I think he's talking about gummy charged by kejar. In the works. Great dev.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PorscheGuy:
Ah, he must be because this is my first Samsung and I've actually heard of him and his Gummy ROMs before.
[Verizon Droid Charge] eljoker402:
if i dont want aspo lockscreen which verison do i flash? 23? and do i have to wipe data
[Verizon Droid Charge] Grillrd:
He worked on droid x(gummyjar...which led to Liberty). I think he also put out one for the thunderbolt. But his work on droid x was spot on.
[Verizon Droid Charge] froodyo:
So I updated and now some Apps don't really work anymore. Quadrant stops on encoding an my awesome pvz will load but can get into any game play :( that's all I noticed so far.

Any ideas?
[Verizon Droid Charge] PorscheGuy:
Loving it so far (still on 4 not 4.1), but after a day or so the phone gets so laggy trying to open apps that it's almost unusable until I reboot. This happens on both the included kernel and the PeanutButta Jelly kernel.

For instance as soon as I finish sending this message and exit the XDA App it will be slow to exit and then my launcher (ADW EX) will be blank and slowly reload. And sometimes I'll press an app shortcut on the homescreen and after a few seconds it thinks I'm holding it down even though I didn't. But what's weird is like now once I'm in the app it works fine including typing. If I reboot then it's fine for hours at least.

EDIT: After I posted that I decided to open the Samsung Task Manager and see if anything was going on and the phone froze up for about a minute and then rebooted.
[Verizon Droid Charge] siphyn:
I'm having the same issues. Neither PVZ or Gun Bros will play, also if I play a video that I recorded using the camera the video plays fine, but when I hit the back button to go back a menu the phone goes to a black screen and it sits there until I hit the home button.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ahyiah:
i'm having the same issues. reinstalling the applications didnt solve anything
[Verizon Droid Charge] bruther1:
Indeed. I'm having trouble playing any media on my phone. I'm going to flash back to v4. Hoping its the ROM rather than a corrupted SD....
[Verizon Droid Charge] froodyo:
I am going to guess that it is corrupted. I think I can deal with it till another updated or new kernal comes out.

What is the best way to go back to stock and make sure the SD card if formated before I reflash everything?

here was my plan:

Disable voodoo lagfix

use odin and go back to ed1 and reset to factory

Let me know if there is a better way.

froodyo
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
I know Kejar is working on a version as mentioned here, has he posted any news on it, and will he build his own kernel to go with it (inlcuding the Voodoo lagfix)? I am back on Stock Rooted ED1 (updated to ED2) and its process just to get back to that after so many work arounds.

The dev work has been awesome here, and I liked how the Debloated V4 was running on my charge, but the amount of free space seemed low to me, I only had 1.08GB (stock is 1.12GB) I estimated there is at least 300+MB of junk to be removed so I thought we would have at least 1.3GB of free space after a fresh install. Does this sound correct?
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Stuff that is removed comes out of /system and not /data so the space savings comes there, as well as freeing up system resources and stopping stuff from running in the background on boot.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
ok, I guess I got a confused. When I had the ThunderBolt I removed the bloatware by cutting/pasting it into a folder on my SDcard for quick return to do the OTA updates. When I did remove it my available internal storage went from 2.31GB to 2.50GB. I naturally assumed if the same was done on this ROM or on a ED2 Deodexed ROM I would likely go from 1.12GB to 1.35-1.40GB?

Is Samsungs implementation different or am I just completely mixing things up? Is the bloatware removed, deleted or frozen? I'm just trying to understand better.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
It sounds like on the Thunderbolt, the /system and /data partitions were both on the same device. Samsung splits them up so that /data and /system lie on separate devices. We have 350MB dedicated to /system, so a ROM can not be any larger than this (and stock it's almost full). I'm not completely sure how much space is dedicated to /data but it is the largest block device there, I think about 1.5GB total? Most things that take up a significant amount of space get installed to the SDCard, or put the necessary data on the SDCard, like Google Maps and the Camera.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Thanks imnuts. So I guess what it sounds like is Samsung really hampered us by making the actual amount of "internal app storage" maxed out at 1.12GB and no further which to me is disappointing. I know I can put large stuff on the card, but its just unacceptable to skimp the way they do. So even if we strip out the bloatware it yields nothing in terms of extra space.

I did notice and it could have been an issue with my phone and all of the messing around with it last night that after I finally got your ED2 Debloated V4 loaded with Voodoo Lagfix and CWM I only had 1.08GB of available app space. This was with nothing else on it. What kind of app space are you seeing on yours from a stock build? BTW I really like yours, its simple, clean does what I want. I'm just having major issues with CWM and Voodoo lagfix post install.

I flash CWM, (oringal version for jt1134 not his test version) and factory reset, wipe data/cache, dalvik cache, battery stats, pretty much everything. I then install the .zip file with CWM and reboot. Seems to go well enough.

Then once I install Voodoo Lagfix (passes) and do the battery install and reboot it hangsup. I spent the better 4-5 hours yesterday just getting it to all work only to restore to try something else.

Do you have any suggestions on how to best install ED2 Debloated V4 or4.1 and which CWM should I use so it will work properly with Voodoo Lagfix. Sorry to bug you on this but your work is where I see my Charge running for a while.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ahyiah:
i went back to stock and i dont have any of the problems anymore. i wiped everything (cache, dalvik, etc.) and formatted my sd card. i pretty much started over.

i used the same plan you just mentioned. currently im on stock ed2 with the peanutbutta kernel from inmuts. currently i'm getting random resets and freezes, not sure why though. i plan on going back to stock ed2 again and using jt's kernel
[Verizon Droid Charge] dobo84:
I installed v4.1 and lost my browser and quadrant just hangs up any ideas
[Verizon Droid Charge] jojomcdougal:
Can someone please list the known issues for this ROM?

Thanks.

Samsung Hotspot issue

Imnuts, thank yu so much for your great work. Everything works great. Just called Samsung about an issue with their MObile HOtSpot application as it does not work. They said they are working to fix it and will have an OTA update in next 4 days (by June 13th). Evrything has been working so far.

Where do I keep up with your udates? Thank you.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Yes, the ZIP files are flashed in CWM unless otherwise specified.

Yes, but it will be a lower priority than updating the ROM and getting other things updated as well.

You mean the OTA that just came out last night/today?
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
@imnuts: did you update the ee4 debloated v42?
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Yes, updated to 4.2.1 to fix some issues I had with 4.2, and also put the sdcard fix in from kejar31 :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
Im on the older radio...is the only way to get it ota? Or has another way been figured out yet?
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
ATM, yes that is the only way to get it. I haven't looked into making a zip file to update it independent of the rest of the files.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Goronok:
I'm confused by the updated OP. Is 4.2.1 built on the new EE4, or is it still ED2 with some updates pulled from EE4?
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
I fallowed these directions and it updated baseband.

Credit to Wynalazca.

Kind of a tedious process, but here is what I did:

1) I disabled the lagfix (create a folder called 'disable-lagfix' in /sdcard/Voodoo)

2) rebooted the phone to disable the voodoo lagfix

3) ran the stock rooted ED1 ODIN file (which I created ￼)

4) took the OTA ED2 update and lost root

5) downloaded the EE4 update file (http://goo.gl/XTDA9) and renamed it 'update.zip' and put it on my sdcard

6) booted into recovery and applied update.zip and then let it boot

7) flashed JTs rooted voodoo kernel and his CWM in ODIN (you should probably delete the disable-lagfix folder after step 6)

NOTE: I didn't wipe at all during this process.

I have EE4 and JTs voodoo kernel and I've confirmed that I have root access.

Now it's time to get rid of this orange and brown crap... again :/

Sent from my Voodoo Charge
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Based on the info in the OP it indicates it is based on EE4, but no EE4 Radio update yet, imnuts indiated he hasn't yet built an independent zip file for the baseband yet.

Changelog

0610

Added some APKs back in

Fixed read-only USB mounting read-only on custom kernels (thanks kejar31)

0609

Moved to EE4 files

ROM is rooted and Deodexed

Browser is still with stock bookmarks (working to remove)

AOSP Lockscreen needs readded

Battery full notification will be back as well

Updated busybox
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
It is all EE4.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Good to know. ATM I am on Stock Rooted ED1 + ED2 Update. No CWM, No Voodoo at all. So it sounds like I should just install the EE4 patch manually so I get the new baseband radio and then I can move to other imnuts ROM he posted here (or other) ROM(s) and if they do not have the EE4 Write Patch just install that. Sound about right?
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
Sounds logical.

Sent from my Voodoo Charge
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Just making sure, since this is my Charge 2.0. 1.0 didn't survive the first 24 hours :(
[Verizon Droid Charge] Goronok:
Cool, thanks for the clarification.
[Verizon Droid Charge] NotATreoFan:
Using the file posted with the goo.gl link will update your baseband. And I has screenshots to prove it... :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] billku:
Quick question -- I read somewhere that the OTA update will only appear if you're on the stock TW launcher -- is that true? I've frozen that launcher and I'm on GO launcher, so I'll have to unfreeze the TW launcher to check periodically if that's the case... thanks in advance!
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Cool, I have the 10.4MB file named 1e96b63a1f25.SCH-I510_ED2_update.zip that was put out yesterday (I think) and of course have a copy of the EE4 patch (we don't need it on this ROM).

So I will follow the steps including CWM to flash 1e96b63a1f25.SCH-I510_ED2_update.zip then CWM this ROM then CWM jt1134's kernel.
[Verizon Droid Charge] binglejellsx2:
I was on ADW EX and still got the OTA notification, but I did not freeze TWL like you did... Apologies if that reply does not help.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chadness:
I saw it using Launcher Pro while I was on Altered Beast, which has TW removed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
this is strange.

I flash this version (4.2.1) and I get stuck on the Samsung screen. I restore to droidxcon's ee4 file that has root, re-flash v4.2.1 and im still stuck on the Samsung logo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] brian1972ct:
I put the VVM apk on my sdcard, but I can't seem to get it installed. How can I get VVM back?
[Verizon Droid Charge] rjcormier:
Hello to all!

I would like feedback on my plan. I am currently ED1 rooted and I froze some useless stuff.

Just for comparison. ..

I am thinking about taking the update to ED2 and hoping I get the ee4 ota. I would like to test the stock out so that I have a good comparison and don't just start flashing stuff at random boredom moments...lol.

Would it be better on the flipside to not do the updates that way and just start the flashing? I want to flash this 4.2.1 ver now....but I am not solid in my understanding of Odin or adb if I mess up...

I have tested Odin and I do know how to pull a file in to pda and I have installed the terminal emulator on my phone. I have tested cwm via the three buttons....so with that being said do you guys think it is safe to say that I can get enough support here in the case of an emergency? Because I really wanna try...or should I keep studying the forums and just do the updates so that I don't bog down the airwaves with my problems if I jack this up.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
1428 quadrant on this debloated EE4. NONvoodoo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] billku:
So if we're on rooted ED2 with Voodoo/lagfix and imnuts PeanutButta Jelly kernal and want to wait for the OTA EE4 update, would this be the procedure -- disable lagfix in CWM, apply EE4 OTA update, reflash voodoo+lagfix with Odin, reapply Peanutbutta kernal with CWM. Does that sound right? Or will the OTA EE4 cause the Voodoo CWM to revert to the stock CWM, which would mean we'd have to ODIN flash the CWM tar again in between the voodoo ODIN reflash and the CWM PeanutButta reapply?

Thanks in advance, hope I'm being clear, this is a whole new language for me...

Droid charge EE4 stock to EE4 debloated 4.2.1

I'm on EE4 stock with stock recovery. Could someone post simple instructions on how to flash to EE4 debloated? I know I need to get CWM, but not sure how to get there.

Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JKChad:
Go into settings -> applications -> manage applications -> select all tabs -> select market -> clear data
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
I always do a force stop then clear data...if it is running when you clear data, there is a chance of something leftover :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
You need to use Odin to flash the CWM (get the red one for now) here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1092114 and then put the EE4 Debloated on your SDcard and flash with CWM. Reboot. If you are running a custom kernel you should install the custom kernel afterwards then reboot again.
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
ZOMG. Finally worked. I think my first download was incomplete so it screwed up my phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
you sure your NONVoodoo?
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
is anyone else's debloat missing Android Market?
[Verizon Droid Charge] brian1972ct:
Yes, I still have the icon, and it opens, but when I pick an app, it force closes.
[Verizon Droid Charge] brian1972ct:
I was able to fix it by putting this on the SD card, and moving it over to system/app via Root Explorer.
[Verizon Droid Charge] brian1972ct:
985 Quadrant score...seems low?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
Yes. In CWM I go into voodoo and both voodoo's are disabled.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chadness:
Argh, can't get CWM to load back up. *sigh* Not looking for help yet, just want to vent :-)
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
CWM is screwy. I dont see how you could get those scores with nonvoodoo
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
I hear you on that, you could go back to ED1, update to ED2, flash CWM. Its touchy.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Use "mount" or "adb shell mount" and if you see ext4 for /system, /data, etc. you aren't no-voodoo
[Verizon Droid Charge] thac23:
Will we be able to flash CWM if we're on EE4 or do we have to downgrade first?
[Verizon Droid Charge] brian1972ct:
Strange, I flashed this version without issues, but just ran a terminal mount and no-voodoo. I went into yellow CWM and tried to enable lagfix, but no matter what I press, it is still disabled for next reboot.

How can I voodoo w/o flashing again or this disabled on EE4?
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
I am not sure, I would say flash CWM before you update since it isn't rooting it should survive. Imnuts would likely know better than I.
[Verizon Droid Charge] das7771:
I am not getting any sound when using video out. Video plays fine but there is no audio at all. Any one else have this problem with 4.2.1
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
Yep CWM must be screwy. ADB says ext4
[Verizon Droid Charge] dobo84:
Im gonna wait till the morn on all this jazz
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
CWM is screwy.

I was lagfixed, and CWM wouldn't show it. I "reenabled" the lagfix in CWR to see if that would change anything, and it seemed to toggle whether I was lagfixed or not.

Just check your \sdcard\Voodoo directory to see if the "disable-lagfix" file (or folder) is there. If it is, delete it & reboot & get some of that "Voodoo that You do!" :-)
[Verizon Droid Charge] haza12d:
Hello all... total noob here. I'm not sure if these are correct steps in doing things but I've been reading up on the updates and development of these custom ROMs and Kernels and I'm feeling brave enough to give it a go. My head is just spinning from all the material that I gotta digest so I was wondering if anyone can tell me if these are the right steps in getting things done.

My phone's background: Rooted on ED1 using GingerSnap method found here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103361

Here are the things/steps I'm thinking about performing:

1 - Flash Using Odin with the 4th Version found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1092114

2 - Flash Using Odin the Recover File also found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1092114

3 - Place 0610 v4.2.1 in SD Card and using CWM, install 0610 v4.2.1 found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1094304

4 - Using CWM, install 0602_charge_voodoo.zip found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1104634

I'm not sure if I'm asking for a brick if I do things this way. I'd appreciate any suggestions anyone may have. Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thac23:
I flashed CWM, it passed in Odin.. but I can't get into it? I might be retarded but we get into it the same way that we get into stock recovery, right?
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Three button combo of Vol Up + Home + Power. If you are on the stock kernel, it will reflash recovery on every boot, wiping out CWM. If you want to keep CWM, you need to flash a custom kernel, or a custom ROM (both for the most fun).
[Verizon Droid Charge] jdkzombie:
ODD...

upon reboot i always get this error message. com.sec.android.providers,downloads (process.com.sec.android.providers.downloads) has stopped working unexpectedly. then the only option is a force close. Nothing else happens. no other FC, no errors, no negative side effects that i know of. i have torn this phone apart in an attempt to find out what it affects to let you know imnuts but im comin up empty handed. if i find anything ill let you know brother,

other than that. this rom is *****in! kudos.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
I would disable voodoo lagfix (if enabled) and wipe cache etc and install again. Maybe something just didn't take right.
[Verizon Droid Charge] football0552:
I am getting similar things. I think this version of CWR isn't wiping data appropriately, as I keep getting FC's all over the place unless i do a stock odin
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Try using the original CWM (red version) and see if that helps. The factory reset, data wipe works, but do not use the backup/recovery and the button mapping doesn't work either.

Make sure you post your info in the thread imnuts has about the current build of CWM here.

I'm loving EE4, new EE4 radio, now I"m debloated and running pb and j voodoo kernel. My quadrant score is around 200 points higher than with ED2 based ROMS with pb and j voodoo kernel. I'm at 1678 now versus around 1400-1500. Antutu up from 1783 to 1830.

I hope the new EE4 radio will fix the occasional connection issues between 3G and 4G.

OK...I Flashed the EE4 Deodexed system, imnuts modded CWM, jt voodoo kernel (Rooted) Then I Flashed EE4 Debloated v4.2.1.

Is anyone missing the phone signal bars/icon? All I have is a black box.

EDIT: I found that that is caused by the accurate battery 3 .zip I flashed.

After Flashing the EE4 Debloated v4.2.1 again, the bars/icon returned.

Then I flashed accurate battery 2...did the same thing.
[Verizon Droid Charge] zerosignal0:
Hey Guys,

I have just updated to this rom and am having an issue with the market. So I had installed OTA EE4, Then I installed AB ED2 w/ root and CWM. I then flashed the OPs rom file and everything is looking good except I cant install anything. I know I had heard of some issues recently with SD permission which kind of concerned me but I don't think thats the problem. I have rebooted multiple time and also cleared cache data for the market but still no go.

Anyone have any ideas? Also is there a pack of .apks that were preinstalled so that we can get some of those things back if wanted (like samsung media hub)?
[Verizon Droid Charge] zerosignal0:
So I have reflashed multiple times with the same results. I have also attempted to flash back to a stock and still no go... At this point I certainly am thinking its my google account or market fail happening but its killing me because I can't install ANYTHING!

Anyone with any tips besides clearing cache for market apps let me know!
[Verizon Droid Charge] frankelweeze:
I'm running EE4 stock and the thing is snappier, better connection to 4gLTE, maybe I'm wrong but with animations enabled I'm not seeing half the lag I saw with ED2??

I'm shocked and impressed Samsung got something out that quick. Maybe this is going to be more fun than I thought...
