Well to be completely honest. Developers can't anticipate every single scenario with how you have modified your phone, Nor can they test every single scnenario.

If you want it to run well you should always remember the following (when in doubt if I can't get it to work):

1. ODIN back to a stock ROM

2. Root if necessary (KD1 deodexed is already rooted and a good point to start)

3. Read CWM Final thread to get CWM on your phone

4. Put the necessary zips onto your SD and reboot your phone into recovery

5. Install from zip and follow the OP.

The reason I had so much trouble is because I had done alot to my phone. ODIN'ed GB leak, ODIN'ED back etc....

Once I started fresh and followed the OP I had no issues. and FYI, the ROM is stable... Installations can always be a bit tricky depending on setup (mounts etc.), but it is incorrect to claim that the ROM isn't stable...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
I agree I only had issues due to my own way of going about it like trying to use the ext4 converter before flashing. But all is good now and the rom is definitely stable. Im very happy with it and it performs so well
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
the only issue i really have is the meida controls still say 8 7 7 blah oh well
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
N i do thank everyone for the time they put into these roms and or stuff for us to try even myself. Its not an easy task and we cant sit there and be at everyones phones to help. LIke war said we cant troubleshoot any and all mods u have done with your phone. IF you feel better revert back if you are unsure Enjoy stock as it was ment to be stock... There really isnt much more to say sorry for sounding rude...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
This rom with the new bali 3.1uv is smoking got a 1700 quadrant with a 1.2 oc
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
ya this rom is hawt.. Just getting fustrated we all have worked hard.

I tried with the gb rom Dsexton with his new phone even tried what we did the rom works but sometime pixle issues sometime its fine he reverted back but at least i tried..

White gave everyone a his verson

teamwiskey gives us well omg i just wanna nutt on my phone roms :P

we have also stated many times over and over and over how to revert back from ginger to kc 1 which is im my gb rom recooked post. I should prob get that file moved to its own thread to not confuse people.

I mean with reading this isnt THAT hard.. I just dont get it if u litterly follow the directions it does itself. sorry if i sound irritated..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
It took me 5 attempts to get the voodoo to work, it was very frustrating kept soft bricking saying no system found. I even bricked trying to put the 2.1 bali kernel in. Now everything is so smooth and great. I am greatly appreciative of drhonk and krylon360 and the whole team whiskey team.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Zixx:
krylon360 Thanks for the rom Im loving it is super smooth but i have a question im not much of a fan of the black an white theme would it brake the balance and stability of this room if i flash http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1079197 which is [UPDATED][6/13/11][v9.4][MOD][THEME][AERODKNG DEV TEAM]Gingerbread Theme also if i flash Drhonk 3.1 kernel would it affect CWM?

thanks in advance and keep up the great work man thanks for helping the community out :D!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
Sounds identical to my experience. ODIN is our friend. Additionally, took about 5 tries but then it was working great :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
I have the same thing here... i'm on attempt #9 of ODIN KD1, then trying to flash this... comes up and says, converting data... then "system is not available" this sux because my backups won't boot up either... :(
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RadFly:
Right

Sound irritated if you want, but I am worried about hard-bricking my phone...

If you guys have good issues with the current revamp of this ROM (ver 2), I will try again tonight and install per the new OP instructions. I am concerned with battery life, as no-one has really posted their findings, perhaps too soon to ask this?..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
here if u are having issues

Download the KC1 from my thread

use the pit phone pda and csc from it let it repartition the phone also dont worry its safe i have done it on my phone also. This will remove any and all traces of anything you have done before ITS a true factory flash.

Download From the fourms the KD1 rom and flash that using odin that will give u a stock rom with root access.

download the update.zip and stick that in the root of your sd card

once thats all said and done

download black ice stable

reboot into recovery with volume up down and power pressed at the same time

load cwm and check your mounts it should be

/cache : unmount

/data : mount

/sdcard : mount

/system : unmount

install the rom and let it do its thing.

once it installs

go back then choose voodo

make sure lagfix is enabled the bottom will say currently disabled but will be enabled on reboot.

scroll down to go back then reboot phone using cwm.

once the phone boots u will hear the voice that its converting this and that bla bla bla let your phone sit there go do something when its done u will come back and see your phone is up and running with the lagfix enabled after that u can go grab the 3.1 kernel that drhook was so nice to give up make sure its in the root of your sd card

then load cwm again

flash dr hooks new 3.1 kernel

reboot

enjoy your phone..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ke4peo:
If I can just say....I had this same issue. Here's how I fixed it.

1) Odin stock KD1

2) After reboot, rebooted and let KD1 load up.

3) Rebooted into recovery and into CWM.

4) Flashed Blackice_Voodoo zip per OP instructions.

5) Immediately flashed Bali 2.5 Kernel

6) Rebooted and let it load up and waited 15 minutes.

7) REbooted into Recovery

8) Flashed Bali 3.0 Kernel.

9) Rebooted and let it load up.

10) Installed Voodoo Controls (free) from Market

11) Went under lagfixes and enabled conversion to ext4 on next reboot

12) Reboot again and let Linda go. Took me about 10 minutes for Linda to do her stuff.

After that, my phone rocks. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RadFly:
Right, this is insane.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
Dude, don't do it then.

Honestly, the point of mod'ing your phone includes the risk of bricking or soft bricking.

Again developers cannot know WHAT you are coming from (ROM, MOD's, Tweaks, etc!) so seriously dude, if you don't want to install the ROM don't.

For the rest of us who have worked through our issues of installing because we had heavily modded our phones, it's working great. I had about 2 hours of issues but then it was resolved.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
You could ask us if u are having issues..

But if you are to afraid to try it enjoying stock might be for u..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
This was tough really tough. I used to have a vibrant so this was way harder to do. The end result is I am pleased with how it turned out. It is so fast and smooth made me remember my good old vibrant days with team whiskey.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cybok0:
It's really not that hard, just takes some patience. If you feel nervous about it maybe you shouldn't do it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ke4peo:
PErsonally, the more I play around with ROM's, mods, and tweaks, the more Ikinda want to start learning how to do my own dev'ing. It's almost like a high when you're flashing a test build or something. Is it gonna brick it?!?!....or will it work? :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] caleoss:
ive always been on a rooted stock rom, i followed all install instructiuons right, mounts right, flashed blackice voodoo.zip, rebooted and heard linda thing, then loaded up a stock lookin rom...i also do full wipe before...weird, phone info still says kd, bali 3.0 and all
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ke4peo:
Also, just installed the Bali 3.1 kernel. WHOA! Like...mad insane speed. :)

And the kernel alone jumped Quadrant from 1200 to 1407 no overclock.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
did you happen to let it sit for 15 min then reboot or reboot then let sit for 15 min?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] caleoss:
just followed what the new red instructions said, tried it again just now and noticed during flash it said Deodexed Stock Kd1 by dr honk, finished anyway and rebooted and now its sitting on first startup screen
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
Same results as before... brick... must have a special phone :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
Tried this also (i assume you meant Bali 2.1 kernel) and it just sits at the galaxy S splash screen...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lostsauce:
Yes I have seen this about four times myself and was getting ready to ask if anyone else noticed it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stevm:
Installed no hick-up,realy smooth.Thank you Krylon360
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beefvvl:
Anyone else notice the battery usage in settings is off? I unplugged around 10am and it's 4:47pm and it says 3hrs 9 min.... Lol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Babyj303:
It resets every reboot
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
Mine is completely stable no reboots at all
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
Here ill make it more simplistic

make sure these files are on your sd card

update.zip

BlackIce_Voodoo.zip

Download the KC1 from my post and use

Odin3 v1.85

click pitt file load the

PITT=Hawk_Sidekick_VibrantPlus_831.pit

PDA=T959VUVKC1-REV00-ALL-low-CL933594.tar

Phone=T959VUVKC1-Phone-CL932707.tar

CSC=SGH-T959V-CSC-TMB.tar

make sure

Repartiton checked

reboot checked

time reset checked

then flash once its done

phone reboots u dont even need to let the phone load

put phone back into download mode

flash this in the the pda section of the phone

PDA=PDA_KD1.tar

u can get that off the fourms..

then flash that..

now the fun and magic happens

did u remember to put the Update.zip and the blackice rom on your sd card i hope so i told u to already :P

reboot phone into recovery mode and install from update

then it will load CWM orange

once u do that check your mounts

/cache : unmount

/data : mount

/sdcard : mount

/system : unmount

if that is how they look you are good if not change them using the up down and power button to change the ones that need to be changed to match those

then hit go back

then click install update from zip file

chose the black ice zip file and let it install

once its done u will be still in cwm orange make sure your mounts still look the same and reboot phone

at this point the phone will reboot convert bla bla bla

if it failes on converting the system partition thats ok so long as it boots once u are in the rom reboot to recovery and then goto

voodoo and make sure its set to lag fix on

bottom of screen will state current lagfix mode and what it will do next if it says

current lag fix is off

make sure to change it ot on so it reads

lag fix is off but on reboot will be enabled and convert

this will 100 percent convert it to ext 4 at this point let it do its thing ur done enjoy

the directions are bullet proof and you dont even need to load the rom at all to actually install blackice....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
Serious noob question I'm sure.

What is a mirror? I'm going to flash this now and don't know if I should flash download or the mirror.

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
mirror is a extra download link if u are getting slow downloads off the first one or and or cant download it its just another place to get it without having to saturate the primary host.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:

after all that is done follow the steps i posted and or from the OP post it works.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Zixx:
Thanks man I really appreciate it =D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nodrogkam:
I'm assuming this is not good...?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
just hook usb and flash with kd 1 via odin u should be ok then follow op steps
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lphillips80:
that's another download mode. just odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nodrogkam:
ok i had to use another system. the one i was using couldnt complete odin for whatever reason. guess it's back. attempt 2 at flashing this!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Babyj303:
So is there any way to change the rom manager cwm to red cwm I can't do anything with rom manager cwm it keeps saying files not found when fixing mounts and stuff. So I have to boot into cwm through rom mgr then into recovery boot into red cwm then I can mount and backup and stuff. Not a big deal just wondering if Theres a fix for it?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
i dont think u should be using rom manager..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
+1000000 Do not use Rom Manager until told so. It will cause you problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
on a positive note using this rom with voodoo sound mod paid bali 3.1 kernel lag fixed even with yahoo mesenger running in the background facebook and web broswer and playing a game with the music off listening to my own god this phone does not skip a beat anymore at all ever mmmmm lovin it
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
All that are having problems do not dispare you will get it just have patience. Take it nice and slow and follow op,s instructions carefully. Good luck to all and once you get it you will see that all that trouble was worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shifty331:
i have read every post and i still cant seemto understand on flashing this phone... i did it to my vibrant with out a problem and now with the sgs4g i cant seem to do it. if anyone can help that would be amazing
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kuntri:
I followed the steps no red cwm or linda, voodoo , etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shifty331:
so then do i do what i did with the vibrant. get rom manager and all that.. what i am saying is how do i get the phone rooted first and then how do i install the rom
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Babyj303:
Rom manager is all I've ever used since I've had this phone everything has worked perfect for me even going into red cwm from rom mgr cwm
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
Just flashed with no problems. However when I go into settings> sound my volume level bars are green not gray as in the test version. That are green for brightness also.

Are they supposed to be green?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] de1packers:
learn odin..google it..once you learn how to use which is very easy.you can flash rooms when they first come out and not have to wait for cwm flashable version

Just go read the Bible and read each section on how to root and use CWM and never use Rom Manager for flashing CWM. I just use Rom Manager to Rename my backups but thats it lol.

I just flashed it and still see incremental battery and lost ext 4
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
@de1packers I still see incremental battery as well. I also lost ext4, but if you go into voodoo control, you can check an option to have it converted back to ext4 on next boot.

I couldn't even restore via cwm backups and I had several, not even after I odin... I gave up and am now on the same modded kd1 rom bit have the 3.1uv bali kernel with the lag fix enabled an out runs fine... Getting better scores than with manual ext4. 2300+ in quadrant @ 1.4ghz. Pretty happy still. Wish I could have figured this issue out though.

Are the unit.d tweaks in this rom any different than the ones posted? If so, will they work with deodexed kd1?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beefvvl:
I wonder if anyone else is getting tired answering the same questions that has been answered 10x. Maybe that's another reason Krylon is leaving this forum.

If people took the time to search for fixes or how to even use Odin and not have to answer it in this thread. Most of these threads wouldn't be so cluttered. I know people are trying to help everyone out but most of the answers people are asking are related to how to do what is answered in the OP and they should already have the knowledge to do what is needed to do and the knowledge of how to get out of a boot loop or what gremlins may come out on your phone.

Even Drhonk said not to flash KD1 because that ROM has dirty /system partition. I flashed KC1 through Odin and so has others and fixed any issue.
