[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
thats what i thought to, but having ext4 on gb is worth the hard work and stress lol once you have ext4 on gb there is nothing better HANDS DOWN
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
I've failed on conversion probably 12 times on kg4 and at least 15 times on kg6. My space in voodoo log says -1236 when I have over 6gig free on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
how about doing a quick format on the sdcard, then put the voodoo folder on your sdcard but erase all the logs in it so its an empty voodoo folder, flash kg4, disable voodoo, download busybox 1.17 download the voodoo app enable voodoo power off your phone WITHOUT QUICKBOOT, go into cwm and enable voodoo :P
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
I would do that but I don't own a pc to back my files up. I've used two different micro SD cards an 8gig and the 16 gig my phone came with. Is there a kernel problem with voodoo causing all of this trouble on conversion?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mbernusg:
I tried my 16gb .. no good .. an old 8gb from my mytouch slide

. No good. A formatted one gig worked lmao

sent from my Real Gs move in silence like lasagna
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
I did it on my 16g so its more like finding the sweet spot, drhonk said he was fixing the issue
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Ok funny thing here I was trying the ext4 conversion and kept getting sdcard full from Linda. Well I checked a few things and voodoo folder was one of them and I saw the file system-to-rfs. So I moved it to the root and tryed the conversion again and got the same error from Linda. Well I decided to check xda for a solution and saw you guys talking about the file in the voodoo folder so I went to check them again and it was gone. Funny thing is is I did move it back but that was all, I didnt delete it. So I rebooted into recovery and tried the ext4 conversion again only this time with success. So maybe those files are not needed at all.

***edit***

Ok so I checked my voodoo folder since ext4 converion and their are still no other file except for the log folder.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
Cool I will wait for drhonk to fix it as my phone right now is almost as smooth as froyo.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
That's all that's in my voodoo file on SD is logs.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Yea but at one point there was another file not a folder and it was (system-to-rfs) I moved it to the root to try the conversion process and and it didnt work so I put it back then the next time I checked it was gone so I tried one more time and it suceded.

Just though maybe it would help deleting it but of its not there what can you do.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
If I knew that answer my voodoo would be working.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Well no ****
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
I wasn't being rude I just wish I could get it to work.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
exactly why you need to mess around with voodoo a little bit so you can get that system-as-rfs file
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
I got the one file to appear if I convert data only. System as rfs
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
rename it to system-as-ext4 then try enabling voodoo make sure busybox is there as well, im sure you know already
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
Tried it same annoying error.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] wizardslovak:
everytime i flash this kernel i loose root ....hmmm
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
what rom are you using ive never lost root to this kernel
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] wizardslovak:
i tried kg4 and kg6 .... flash rom then flash kernel and baaam "no root "
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Part Four:
Got the file and renamed as you suggested, but still no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] osugsxr:
decided to enable lagfix coming from leak odin kg4 rom. Quadrant scores were 1300-1600s or so on average. Ran lagfix, and didnt have any issues just converted no problem, quadrant is up to 2200. No OC or anything, seems to be fine for now.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
My phone reset and now i have ext4. The phone flies now it is so smooth, almost like a new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ttngu234:
So I tried flashing this over my setup and it gets stuck on the Galaxy S 4G screen. Am I supposed to wait for it to load, do a battery pull and attempt to get it into recovery, or what?

Tried to ODIN it back to GB leak, ODIN it with root image, installed busybox, then ODIN with this kernel update in the PDA section.

What am I doing wrong here?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dtowngs4g:
Honk's kernel gave me root and red cwm. But when lagfix & system lag are enabled my sd card space shows as unavailable. So guess i will be patient and wait for update or try sextons ext 4 mod. TIA
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
People, When voodoo is working, it will be stuck on splash screen and Linda will speak. Note, sometimes it may not speak. But don't be worried. If you have done everything right and your system boots without lag fix enabled and you have busybox, then if you get stuck, that means it is working.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ttngu234:
So are we supposed to do a battery pull and attempt to boot into recovery or wait for it to complete? I waited 10 minutes with nothing happening on the splash screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] htaak:
Okay. I had this working, then decided to mess with it and ended up with the same situation.

Lagfix enabled = no SD card / no conversion on startup.

Lagfix disabled = Sd card present but erh....no lagfix.

Tried just about every combination of every suggestion on every thread both here and at rootz on this topic...no luck.

Here is how I got it to work.

1) Partitioned 16GB SD to 2048/256 in CWM.

2) Odin http://www.multiupload.com/0Z4FSRLD5L from Chadster214

3) Boot/Shutdown/Put into download

4) Odin http://www.multiupload.com/VAVL4BXBE6 from corradokng

5) Bootloop to fugu fish/pull battery and put into download

6) Odin http://www.multiupload.com/VBZSMM133B from corradokng

6.5) Install busybox 1.17.1

7) Let boot/shutdown/Put into download

8) Odin http://www.filefactory.com/file/cda5f9b/n/Kernel[ODIN]_KG4_inc_CWM_ROOT.tarfrom Drhonk via VICosPhi

9) My phone freakin reboots, goes straight to Linda converts everything to ext4 flawlessly!

10)Backup!

No busybox install, nothing not listed here.

Any deviation from these exact steps caused everything to fail. I know I'm rooting the phone twice but when I skipped the corradokng root and just used the kernel auto-root I was back at the no SD card / no lagfix circus.

The way this GB voodoo deal is right now I'm sure it's not going to work for everyone as nothing seems to, but wanted to post for those of you still trying to get it to work. In getting to this point I had previously flashed every GB rom that's been posted in the last week with no luck. Even the samfirmware one that I used successfully this time did not work for me when I was doing the whole disable voodoo/install busybox/ enable voodoo thing.

I hope this is some help to someone.:)

EDIT: Pushed the crt animation and phone is bootlooping - going to re-flash everything and get busybox installed properly before rebooting. I'll update.

UPDATE EDIT: Installed busybox 1.17.1 betwenn steps 6 and 7 = no boot loop. Nand backing up before pushing crt

UPDATE: Bootloop was caused by me not fixing permissions after crt push.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Part Four:
No. When it's stuck, it means it's stuck.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
Sometimes it takes a long time to convert. Like in the area of 10-15 min. On the other hand sometimes it is stuck.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ttngu234:
I thought it was stuck, but I gave it another try.

-ODIN stock leak

-ODIN root zImage

-ODIN zImage

-Install busybox

-ODIN kernal

Exception this time is I waited a lot longer, and it finally went through. In my case, I waited for a very long time and did not hear anything. Seemed like it was stuck, but it went through.

Hope this helps. Be patient.

:::::

Edit: Rebooted phone in attempt to get it into recovery. Taking a long time to boot again and I don't know if it is stuck or doing the same silent process again.

It was a super long boot...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] crackpot:
Did you CHMOD framework-res.apk to 755 before restarting, that's likely the reason for boot looping.

Open a Terminal emulator (or adb) and enter:

su
mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/stl9 /system
chmod 755 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/stl9 /system
reboot

This assumes your system partition is ext4, if not replace "ext4" with "rfs" in the remount commands.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] htaak:
Nope..I sure didn't. I was in a rush to get everything finished in my lunch break. Thanks man.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lufc:
Please keep this thread on TOPIC there should be no need for that amount of Cleaning Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] perknite:
This worked for me as well. Thanks for laying this out. It was so good, in fact, that I copied and saved it for my personal reference. The only thing I would change is that the mode you have to enter to ODIN anything I believe is "download," not "recovery." I could be wrong, but I believe that is the case. Great instructions! Made me brave enough to try it and all is golden:D. I took a step back from KG6 to do this, but I believe it was worth it. I mean, 1950 Quadrant score out of the box (no oc or additional tweaks)... wow.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
Score with voodoo no oc

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Part Four:
I finally found my 2GB SD card. Popped it in, did a format via system settings menu, enabled Voodoo using the market app, powered off, powered on, and Voodoo is now enabled. The 2GB card did the trick, no problem. Go figure.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
lol sorry you used your card, we finally figured out what the problem was, there was nothing wrong with the kernel
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Part Four:
No big deal. It was an old card and I stumbled upon it in a drawer. Wasn't looking for it. So what was the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
we were still on ext4 even when thought we werent, so you probably had an ext4 partition on your sdcard
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Part Four:
Actually, I just read the thread where you posted the solution to the problem. Why be sorry that I used my 2GB SD? It was a whole lot easier and faster than flashing back to a different ROM, etc. I'm still wondering why this worked with a 2GB card but not with any of my other cards.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shawnshine:
Oops

So... I flashed this Kernel successfully in Odin for my KF2 build, without first upgrading to the ACTUAL KG4 yet. Do I need to somehow "unflash" this kernel before flashing from KF2 to KG4 in Odin? Or will I be okay? *n00b*
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] digitallure:
wrong thread
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] htaak:
You're correct man. I was so excited to get it working that I guess I rushed with the instructions. I did edit my orignal post to correct. Thanks for the catch, glad it worked for you.

I think it might be the formating the SD card prior to everything else that let it work.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jay Aristide:
I think it has to do with the size of the card. I used to think it was the fact that my 16gb card had a second partition, but after abandoning Link2sd due to the fact that it refused to work right on kg4 w/ext4, linda still *****ed about not enough space with only one part on the card, it seems more likely that it had to do with card size. No evidence to support that, just deductive reasoning :-)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
no because i have a 16G and i can convert just fine

GAMELOFT GAMES DONT WORK ON KG4 GingerBread 2.3.4

Hey Im having big problems using GameLoft Games such as Shadow Gaurdian and Dungeon Hunter 2. I load them from Titanium back Up with NO Data and let them run fresh agai when i open and start the games up. but then they cant make it all the way to the OPENING start screen or they just give me an Error back.

Im wondering does this have something to do with the MOUNTS in CWM. becuz sometimes they will play and sometimes they wont. I restart the phone and im charging the mounts and nothing is working. i never ask questions but ive spent days on this and know im going crazy.

whats the mounts suppose to be set on:

IM using VooDoo EXT 4 its working well on all Partitions. I reformatede my SD Card so i dont get no nore "NO SPACE ON SD CARD" Linda (computer Voice) Errors.

Are the mounts suppose to be:

M.U.U.M:

======

Mount

UnMount

Unmount

Mount

I dont know if its the KG4 2.3.4 or the Kernal or The Mounts. Someone Please Help........
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] elry567:
U need to check mounts before and after u flash mine changed after i flashed the rom took me bout 2hrs to figure it out hehe

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Yea it can be tricky.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Compxpert:
I check the thread and most elsewhere but couldn't find an answer for the problem I'm having. I'm on ICBINB GB and I even flashed this kernel and still my voodoo app tells me sorry, this device doesn't run a kernel supporting extended sound controls. Lagfix is enabled and all partitions are ext4 even /proc/mounts has /system /data and /cache as ext4. Not sure why voodoo isn't working.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chris....:
Lagfix doesn't equal sound hack.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lvnlegendinc:
hey guys... im kinda lost with all this .... ive ODIN'd other software and now i want to update to 2.3.4, since 2.3.3 gave me lots of issues!

My question is I am lost with rooting the software ([ROM-Leak][ODIN] Gingerbread 2.3.4 T959VUVKG4) so I thought about updating to this one.... can I just run ODIN and drop the software and let it install or is it more like ICING that u need to disable and enable stuff... thats all confusing..... the last thing I want to do is brick my phone.

If anyone has a n00bs guide to doing this... id really appreciate it.

Thanks!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
This is a modded kernel for the GB releases. As long as your on gingerbread just grab the Odin flashable file and load it into the pda section and flash. Assuming you know how to Odin you should be just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mbernusg:
Voodoo is working for you.. you get that error because gb kernel doesn't have voodoo sound support.. two separate things
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Compxpert:
Yeah I kinda figured that out after word. I assumed that since the kernel had support for the voodoo lagfix then that it must also support the voodoo sound module but not the case at all. I do miss having it but I can wait for a GB kernel that offers support. Which btw when could we expect to see something like that?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mbernusg:
Cm7 is coming.. that's why I'm stressing to hard on getting my phone just right.. especially as we get 14 GB leaks a day lol. then to have to tweak it all again with cm7 and start over ha

Cyanogen will probably be the last build I flash.. unless we get miui.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
1. in my opinion there is nothing SPECTACULAR about ANY cm7 build, it is a very nice build but nothing to jizz in your pants about, only thing special about it is its OWN kernel

2. there will be an miui rom that will come out, not sure how long that will take though, and if you like miui i dont know why you just dont get an iphone :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Don't forget about flashing the CM beta updates, especially the 4th beta which will require you to wipe your data partition, and the 6th one that will make your system unstable, but it's okay, the 7th one should have all the kinks worked out. :D

Keep in mind to calibrate your batteries too! :)

On another note, I am curious as to what the difference would be between the kernels... Anyone want to enlighten me?

EDIT: My quadrant scores seemed to have dropped significantly after flashing the KH2 kernel. I'm only seeing myself hit 2,300 tops. I used to hit 2,700 with the KG4 kernel. Even after pushing Whitehawkx's tweaks again, I still get the same scores. I haven't tried flashing dsexton702's SASv6 yet though.

EDIT #2: My SD card apps don't load after I reboot. They come back after I open up an app that's installed on the SD card though. After wiping the dalvik cache and fixing permissions, this problem seems to be solved.

Awesome, missed this the other day, glad I ran across it this morning.. off to flash it and see what it does for Valhalla...

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bbobarino:
Is it ok to flash through cwm or should I Odin? I am presently running Valhalla ext 4 on all partitions with the raw kg4 kernal from the oringinal op. I feel like I'm trying to fix what ain't broken I have no issues whatsoever with the kg4 kernal should I flash this kh2 kernal and will I get the same result if I just flash with cwm instead of the Odin version? Any insight or help will b much appreciated! !

I flashed the KH2 kernel via CWM on Valhala with ext4 enabled without any issues and it is running flawlessly. On a side note, its spelled "kernel".

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] neotoky:
I would also like to know the differences between the kernels as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Liquid Smoke:
i flashed the kg4 leak with odin before this and then used odin to flash this kh4 kernel, it flashes and reboots fine, and the superuser app shows which im assuming means its rooted as well, but i cant get into cwm recovery (holding down vol up+down at boot), does anyone know what im doing wrong? do i have to install rom manager and get cwm recovery from that manually?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lawful123:
Install a program called quick boot from the market. Then use that program to boot into recovery. This is a great program to use if the ROM you're using does not include boot options.

If this helped please hit thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Liquid Smoke:
i wasnt able to install any apps either, whenever i would install something the phone would just auto quick reboot
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] elinca247:
Can BLN be add to this kernel. I really miss it!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lawful123:
The kernel you installed should have given you recovery. You may have to Oden the kernel again. Make sure you are installing a kernel that you're ROM supports. What ROM are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Liquid Smoke:
I'm on stock Froyo (rooted) and applied a few mods in the past like the EXT4 partition, Fugu tweaks, Bali kernel, so I'm not sure if any of those are affecting it?

But I'm basically trying to install the Valhalla ROM, I flashed the KG4 leak over Froyo and then flashed this kernel over it so I can get it rooted and ready for Valhalla, but once I flash this kernel, it seems to root I'm guessing because I see Superuser installed, but I can't boot into CWM recovery it's not showing up and also when I try to install any new apps the phone just reboots itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lawful123:
Ok. Find fb's guide gb ext4 starter pack on how to go from froyo to gingerbread. That will set your phone str8.

Do you have busybox installed? .. Did you enable voodoo lagfix from CWM?

Yes version 1.19.2 and voodoo was already enabled, so I disabled voodoo and kernel booted up. When enabling voodoo Linda says converting system and then data, after that phone will not boot up unless I either disable voodoo or flash the kh1 kernel.
