I'm having the same issue. I did install the kernel, as well as the APK patch.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
Now I can't even odin anything on my phone. whenever I try I get a big red failed in odin. How do i get my phone back up?
[Verizon Droid Charge] IamIkari:
Follow this guide. Use the "almost full package" download.

Once it's done, use odin to flash the debloated EP1F from here:

To Recover

If you have tried using ODIN to recover and it failed you will have to use the samsung PST Lite software and the stock recovery option. you will find the files needed in the list of all roms at the top. it will take you back to the first release software that was sent out with the phone, from there you can reflash using ODIN to whatever you want.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
Tried this before I posted. didn't work. Am going to try using the samsung pst thing now.

[Verizon Droid Charge] IamIkari:
It has worked for me two times now. After following his steps with his almost everything package, the phone would reboot and hang at the samsung screen. Pulled battery, and used odin and the EP1F debloated leak, i'm back in business. I did the same thing after the initial flash failed going from Humble 2.1.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bcrider83:
Kernel Question

Since the Kernel is packaged seperatly in this release, would it be possible to have the kernel installed on a stock de-bloated rom w/o installing nameless?

I actually like touchwiz, but I know the other kernels (specifically ones that include OC ability) work a lot better. I know that kernels designed for EE4 will not work with this, but since this one was designed for EP1F I wonder if it would work on stock rom?

Thanks,

Ben
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
I am back to working order. Had to use the samsung PST program and phone is back to froyo :-( now gotta go back to GB again. lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
Feel free to test any kernel's I release in the OP. I'm working to figure out the reboot issue.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
I just tried your kernel on another gingerbread rom and same thing happens. When the phone boots up it goes right into Android system recovery <3e> screen.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrtruckincowboy:
too bad this isn't working hope you find a solution look forward to lagfix with GB
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
Just a stretch but do you think it is doing this because /system/etc/install-recovery.sh needs removed? This has been a problem with CWM recovery being overwritten by the stock recovery.
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
That is the case yes. On a stock ROM, you should remove:

/system/bin/recovery

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

FYI I have a tester testing with me on IRC tonight, and we're going to try to iron out the issue. After that, it's smooth sailing :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
if you need another tester, give me the IRC info and I will hop on too.
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
same here I'd like to help, am c0ns0le on freenode as well
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
Guys, I'm thinking the issue is related to the kernel script, I believe the bml devices are wrong. believe that the script should be updated to bml6,7 based on the stock pit. Im updating the kernel to tset. Will advise
[Verizon Droid Charge] kennydied23:
Really eager to try this rom, so console please keep us updated
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
so good news. after updating this code and re zipping.

phone booted just fine.

I'm not certain yet if its using the updated kernel our not though.

Ill post updated zip in a few
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
Okay am just creating a new build v3 with updated kernel script and added cwm recovery will flash in a few and hopefully report back
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
same issue as before, restoring to stock and will continue on.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kennydied23:
Alright that sounds good. It'll be great to finally have some ext4 with gingerbread
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
Hey c0ns0le, good work :) I was working off information from a third party, so I was thinking it may be something like this. I'll update the kernel and get a new build out today.
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
navendrob, check out my other posts, i updated the kernel 'updater-script' and threw in the latest cwr, phone boots into cwr and wont come out of cwr.

i'm still uncertain as to whats going on here.

am going to try again today without cwr and see if that works with the new bml locations. am really dumbfounded w/ this,

when you are building your kernel what git sources are you using and which initramfs. supercurio was the only one i knew who had the initramfs figured out for this.

i'm on irc if you want to hit me up.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Phlack:
so I installed this with the kernel and my phone wouldn't boot out of the blue recovery...I tried to odin back to ed1 and got fails all day long...i tried to used PST lite and got fails all day long also...now what? I'm gonna try and odin a couple of more times with different packages.

EDIT: Yep, I forgot about the battery having to be in for PST to work...that did the trick!
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
I had the same issue and had to Odin back to the ED1 stock Odin file using PST lite.

EDIT: I also make sure I keep the battery in the Phone when flashing an Odin file that will rewrite the radio/modem on the phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrtruckincowboy:
maybe until a stable flash is made the download links should be removed to keep people from bricking there phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
LOL, the first thing they see when they open the thread is a BIG RED "NOT WORKING YET". If they are feeling lucky that is up to them.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Phlack:
yep I saw the big red sign! It is still fun to play around with new stuff!
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
New build is coming tonight with fully working kernel and recovery :)

Hard working testers:

Thanks guys!

Stay tuned.
[Verizon Droid Charge] asenduk:
Thank you!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrtruckincowboy:
Awesome on new build and yes I new the red writing was there but some people just don't pay attention to warnings you know.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
Hmmm, I guess I better get to bed. Doesn't look like this tonight release is happening tonight.
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
Sorry for the delay, pushed it back until Sunday as some testers had to leave for the night and I had no way to test changes.
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
Test Build #3 is available in the OP.

Known issues:

Setup Wizard may FC

Bluetooth not working

Physical home/menu key may not work

If you can confirm these issues or find other issues please post your findings here :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] dspolen:
Downloading now. Will report back with what I find. Thanks for your hard work.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Joe T:
Stuck on Galaxy S spash screen ~15 min, no voodoo voice. Is this normal for conversion?

Edit: Pulled battery and booted fine! Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] cujo6801:
let us know how you like it....PS glad you got unstuck
[Verizon Droid Charge] dspolen:
Yea same for me I had to flash back to gcharged.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dspolen:
What rom were u using before you flashed? And what recovery. I was in gcharged 1.5 woth the newest recovery ( light blue)
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
No voodoo conversion sound. You should ve wiping cache,factory,dalvik befor this. Also make sure you do a sanity reboot after first boot. First boot should take a slightly longer time than normal.
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
the recovery best used for this is 4.0.0.8, 4.0.1.0 is a bit flaky while I was testing.

Ill post an odin fix if needed or maybe gunnermije can for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dspolen:
Can I flash this using the newesy recovery (light blue) ? Do I.need to make any special files?
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
After the first couple boots ypu should see better performance. Lcd_density lower than 190 caused some fc's. During testing
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
Try the link below flash with odin3 v1.82

Use imnuts process of battery pull and no reboot, make sure to specify update bootloader

[Verizon Droid Charge] asenduk:
Installed fine, but yes.. Home and menu keys are no go
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
they start working after awhile not sure where tge issue is. We had em working and nav had to rip

Several things to get other stuff working, figute when I get back to the house well get a few other items fixed
[Verizon Droid Charge] asenduk:
How can I verify ext4? Cwm?
[Verizon Droid Charge] LANAtron:
Did you confirm your'e converted over to ext4?

Type 'mount' from terminal emulator...4th or 5th line down.
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
Ext4 worked for me no issues
[Verizon Droid Charge] dspolen:
Thanks ill give it a try...
[Verizon Droid Charge] davnynoel:
I was trying to do a ext4 conversion and I couldn't get past the initial boot just a freeze at the splash screen this is my first kernel so I'm still learning... congrazt for getting it to work I'm going to keep working on mine maybe I can get hardware buttons to work I will keep everyone posted...

Sent from my mom
[Verizon Droid Charge] Joe T:
Is video working on google talk? I've had several force closes.
[Verizon Droid Charge] LANAtron:
Does running ext4 on GB feel as big of a bump up as it did on ed1/ed2/ee4?

Thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Would be very interested to see some benchmarks from this rom.
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
My early quadrants were mid 1300s

Switching to ioschrduler of deadline with the givenor of ondemand increased that
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Huh?

I'm getting more than 1300 on GB GBE. What would the benefit be of a switch?
[Verizon Droid Charge] bcrider83:
If you flashed GBE coming from a Voodoo kernel already then you still have some voodoo system installed, I have installed GBE from complete stock and get score of just over 900, install after voodoo install and it jumps to 1200+ imediatly. GBE keeps some of the file system intact.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
I don't claim to be an expert regarding file structures, but that doesn't sound accurate at all. Either you are on EXT4 or not. I don't see how "some" of Voodoo would remain. Can anyone else confirm this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] bcrider83:
I agree, it doesn't sound like it should do this, but over the last 2 days I wiped my phone and reverted back to ed1 then flashed straight to gbe bloated...953. Then back to ed1 straight to gbe de-bloated, 960. Back to ed1, upgrade to ee4, install voodoo, the to gbe bloated, 1266. Numbers don't lie.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timgt:
I just ran a quadrant test on my Gummy GB and I got around 1300 also. Seems like this should be higher if it truly is ext4
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
This is completely untrue
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
Just tested the kernel only.. Hard button keys worked for me although USB mounting didn't...

I also noticed that the init.d scripting was still not working..

BTW: I did not enable the lagfix as the current IMNUTS CWM (blue one) doesn't seem to want to turn it on.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrtruckincowboy:
Have anyone got bluetooth working like to jump on this and test but I drive truck got to have bluetooth
[Verizon Droid Charge] dspolen:
I think im just going to keep running your rom. Been running great.
[Verizon Droid Charge] gunnermike:
bluetooth is broke. he has it fixed. just not the one on the op.
[Verizon Droid Charge] K.AuthoR:
I am about to flash the test build #3. Will repost results. My only concern is battery life, but I'm definitely glad to see the ext4 fix for GB.

Flashed, only thing so far that really sucks is that Back and Power are the only physical buttons that work. Flashing back to Gummy until that can be fixed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
Just wanted to confirm that bluetooth and init.d has been fixed. Working on a few more issue resolutions. Once those get ironed out I will release a patch for Test Build #3, so look out for that soon. Test Build #4 is around the corner :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] calikorban:
Is gtalk video working with this one yet?
[Verizon Droid Charge] pentafive:
I flashed this from a fresh load of unbloated GB EP1F and it hung on the boot after the flash. Just sat on the Galaxy S boot screen for hours. Finally did a battery pull and rebooted. The booted into the ROM and the setup wizard FCed. Scored around 1300 on Quadrant.

Got a FC on Gtalk when making a video call. Voice call worked ok.

Can't stand not having the home and menu keys working. The poop color on the dialer is also a no go, please remove it quick!!! :)

Will look forward to newer versions of the ROM when the bugs are fixed.

-Penta
[Verizon Droid Charge] mbh87:
My guess is that framework and system apps from gummy charged will work on this ROM so you can cherry pick what you want from it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
When the bugs are fixed, are you planning to release the kernel as a separate download so that we can try it on other roms as well?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Shortbusdriver:
I would also like to see this kernel released individually cause I want to try this out with gummycharged.
[Verizon Droid Charge] gunnermike:
do a fix permissions for the fc's. that should fix it. the buttons will start working after the first reboot. the poop will be removed in the final version. we are more instersted in function right now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jonbloom:
I need to be able to rever the partitioning that this created, it has not allowed me to go back to any other ROM without ODINing, and I really don't want to go down that route.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pentafive:
Rebooted several times, buttons still didn't come alive. I understand about working on the functions and stability.. just don't want the poop on the phone lol.

Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] gunnermike:
You can flash gummy over it just fine. The kernel will still be nameless. Or you can wait until we have a more stable build. We are making great progress. Would be even better if navendrob had a charge (hint hint) ;).
[Verizon Droid Charge] theetimryder:
I just installed this on my Droid Charge, I was running the GB leak EE4 and upgraded thorugh CWM. Found that is is very nice... i only would like the option to remove or disable the home theme and stick to the stock one? I find that this home is laggy and a bit clunky... This appears to be the first release that I have played with which allows the use of the Wireless Tether app. Thank you for that!

The new market release looks very nice with this app also.

I'll be testing thoroughly and posting my findings here shortly.

Thanks for this!
[Verizon Droid Charge] calikorban:
This looks promising as i have been following it this. I see a few bugs that people are commenting on. This is just all the issues put together that I have seen so far. If there are anymore that I missed let me know.

1. Bluetooth not working (fixed in the next kernel release)

2. Home/Menu button dont work (i read that restarting should fix it. One person says it didnt)

3. Gtalk video force closes on video ( Fix permissions should fix this. No word on success yet) Gtalk Voice calls seem to be working.

4. Setup wizard will FC (Not a big concern for me as I dont like the verzon setup wizard anyway)

5. As one person commented ugly poop colored theme ;) (easily fixed but not really required while debugging the build)

Really if this is all than that is amazing. I would have to say good job so far.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rnaiyc:
I think I'm holding off for the physical keys to work but has the newest build (#3) gotten rid of the issues people were having flashing back to anything else?
[Verizon Droid Charge] theetimryder:
I am having continuous FC issues with most of the GO applications, like SMS, Calendar, Contacts etc.... on start-up nearly every app has an issue which causes it to FC. The reporting of application errors doesn't appear to be working for me. Applications like Tango and Fring do not allow me to hear anything that the other person is saying and the person on the other end is saying they can't hear me either. Also I don't have the option to switch to the alternate camera as i normally would in other ROMs.

It also seems like those apps I use that require me to login do not appear to be saving the login credentials as it previously would. Like Netflix for example. When I close the program I have to re-login to use it again which is not normal. The "Beautiful Widgets" app has a weather app and it doesn't seem to remember my location.

Again to reiterate what others are saying the bluetooth doesn't work at all for me and despite what I had said earlier the wireless tether doesn't seem to be working either. I have rooted privileges and I can see the hosted server on my laptop but I can't ever connect to it. This appears to be the same as other ROMs.
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
1. Fixed and reviewing added bt features

2. still a crapshoot, different people have different experiences, though we are reviewing

3. Believe thay is correct

4. Weve been going through logcats to figure this one out.

5. Theming is underway

6. Keep an eye out you never know what youll miss in the releases. ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] theetimryder:
How can we provide you with some info of the crashes that happen so you can fix them easier?
[Verizon Droid Charge] pentafive:
If you can reproduce it over and over, detail your setup and how you get it to crash. I bet a copy of logcat would also go a long way.
[Verizon Droid Charge] c0ns0le:
We haven't seen many variances of the issues, everyone is complaining of the same issues.

At this point it isn't needed.

We'll ask. I promise, just give us some time
[Verizon Droid Charge] 3083joe:
Ok so first install didnt work but reinstalled and did a wipe and no problems. I was coming from Gummy 1.4

First great rom, will enjoy it down the road. The hard keys on the bottom do not work, problem as this is the way to get to many things apps in market, get out on another app, or any menu in any app. If this was fixed i would run this Rom as my daily driver.

Other things that ive noticed, audio goes up and down, ringtone, incall vol. etc.

it doesnt show ur call log well only got one person to show up after receiving 7 calls

Thats it for now thanks

[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
We found an issue with the install script today that caused some issues apparent in Test Build #3. We've corrected that issue, and that was probably the problem it was taking multiple installs for some people to get this working. Also, I finalized the kernel and it will be included in Test Build #4 along with the other fixes and changes we're making to the ROM. The new build will be coming out soon (hopefully in a day or two) so stay tuned for that, and I would just advise rolling with whatever setup you have at the moment until the new build is released. In the new release I'm hoping to include a more complete theme to the ROM so as to give a more enjoyable experience.

That's it for now! Thanks again!

Can you also incorporate the very accurate Battery Icon for the status bar? The default one is a little small and not as accurate.

Thanks!

[Verizon Droid Charge] foister82:
i flashed this today using the order advised -> format utility, rom, kernel, battery pull on loop and got in. It runs smooth and is very fast.

however i cannot get into recovery now. i try the 3 button recovery method and it doesnt seem to work now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] reflekt2099:
have you tried using the quickboot app?
[Verizon Droid Charge] foister82:
also i cannot get wifi enabled and when i do try to enable wifi, my data signal disappears. I have to then disable data and wait 10 sec and restart it. otherwise this rom is FAST thanks to your file conversion and kernel!
[Verizon Droid Charge] foister82:
thanks that worked, forgot all about that app :/ recovery boot attached to the power button in roms has ruined me :P
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
Hey, thanks for bringing this up. WiFi is indeed broken in this latest release as I released the kernel with a different WiFi setup so that it would be compatible with other GB roms like Gummy Charged. In the next test build of this ROM WiFi will again be working.
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
Any support is appreciated. Obviously I don't expect people to donate large sums of money. If you'd like to support my cause you do not have to donate, but if you do choose to, any sum of money that you are comfortable with donating is acceptable. As long as the community does not have a problem with starting a thread subjected to donating toward said cause, then I am OK with the idea and would encourage it. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] asenduk:
