Dont worry about EXT4, Odin will take care of it. just Odin back to stock ep4d.

If you need some in depth how to root instruction look here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1558392

Agree with buhohitr, go to stock, take the FP1 ota, and flash Tweaked 2.0

---------- Post added at 08:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------

You would need to flash back to stock ep4d .... from there the best way to root is to flash tweaked 2.0

Follow the link above to find instructions on how to go back to stock ep4d. Once you are done with that, and receives the OTA to Fp1, and you are done with the OTA you can look for instructions on how to install Tweaked 2.0 (which will give you root access)

Obs: If you go with your other option, you need to make sure you are flashing a rom compatible with whatever you have now. For example Ep4 to Ep4, or Fp1 to Fp1 .... Anyway every time you flash a new rom it is better to flash back to stock first ...
[Verizon Droid Charge] gsw721:
im back to stock

where do i find tweaked 2.0? i have looked and not finding it.

buddy is pissed that i had to restore his phone. but i warned him. better than a brick
[Verizon Droid Charge] Hindle1225:
How about Droid charge Android development section... Wow!
[Verizon Droid Charge] gsw721:
i give up

Hey again

went back to stock, then updated. found tweaked 2.0 an d installed. on boot up says galaxy s & lost my wifi. buddy going apes. going back to stock and doing update..then quitting.

maybe i'll try again in 3 days when we are back to work.

why am i having so many problems with this phone. it had su installed.

was my wifi just a temp loss or is this the norm with tweaked.

how do i do a back up without having phone rooted.

i probably have more questions...but might not

thanks for the help
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
I believe you may missing some steps in the process. When flashed back to EP4D stock rom, check your "phone info' settings for kernel/radio/rom version, make sure they all displayed EP4, Now upgrade to FP1, again after done, check your version again, they all should say FP1, Now you are ready to Odin tweakstock 2.0.

Any one else been having issues with the play store? Every time I try to download an app I get an error saying "error processing purchase". I'm getting this on both paid and free apps. Anyone getting the same message or have an idea to fix it
[Verizon Droid Charge] PaulN64007:
Try going into settings, applications, manage applications, all. Find google play store then clear data.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Done. Link removed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
No, you are not, take a look at item 6, you have a blue theme for FP1.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sasquatch080:
Anybody who has played with both kernels have a preference in kernels? I didn't make the full jump. Kept my pbj as I'm very happy with it. Would like some feedback plz.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
I'm running pure FP1 stock kernel and rom. So 4 so good... smooth. I only installed Go launcher Ex since I want more control over the stock launcher. But no lag and smooth as silk. Radio is working great too. I'm testing for battery usage right now, would take couple days for the results. Last night I have a quick brief with "true blue theme" on it but I removed since I just want to test pure stock.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sasquatch080:
Appreciate it. Does the kernel let you tether no problem? Ciq or other spy apps come with this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Ok, so currently you have stock GB kernel with Eclipse rom, now you want to flash FP1 eclipse deodexed/debloated rom? This is not a good mix. You should flash FP1 factory image, so now you have FP1 stock kernel and FP1 radio(most important with FP1), then you flash the FP1 deo/debloated Eclipse rom. Hope this help.
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
rooting

Hey i think i flashed CWM correctly, but whenever I try to install eclipse from SD card i just get the yellow triangle... i flashed CWM via Odin and it said successful... and then i boot into recovery. it says "android recovery" at the top. does that mean I did not install CWM correctly?
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Wifi tether is working fine, all my apps are working fine (included Titanium, mybackup, super user etc...). Yes, the FP1 allowed VZ to remote trouble shoot your phone, but YOU must accept the request, BEFORE they can connect. I ran some data connection spy on data, and there's no strange service/app accessing over the internet. I believe, VW would not dare to violate privacy policy, because they don't want to put themselves in a bad publicity situation/law suit.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sasquatch080:
Thanks so much. I'll probably end up taking the full FP1 experience tonight. Good thing there's a blue theme!
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Turn off your phone, remove battery, connect your usb from PC to phone, hit down vol button, you should see a big yellow triangle, reinsert your battery. Now open Odin 1.5 version on your PC, click on PDA, then browse to your cwm zip version

0302

(the latest). Uncheck "reboot" option on your Odin, click start to flash. Once done, remove usb, pull battery, then put back battery (do not connect usb). Hold down vol-up + Home button + power button to get back into new cwm. Once you in cwm you should know how to do the rest. Good luck.
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
wow thanks so much

this was my first time rooting and your instructions helped me a lot ^^ABOVE^^!!! IT WORKED!!! Now i assume i am eclipse with GB kernel?! Correct? Now i gotta read about PBJ and how to do that!! THANKS SO MUCH!!

it installed and formatted correctly but it seems to be stuck booting on a GALAXY S logo... eventually after 5 minutes it booted up.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Yes, it's normal for 5 min if it is the first time boot into the O/S. To install PBJ kernel it's pretty straight forward. Boot into CWM, select "mounts and storage" select everything that said "mount" after executed correctly, it should displayed "unmount" (you don't need to do the last one which is "mount USB storage". Next go back to the main screen and select wipe cache partition, scroll down to "wipe cahe partition then hit the power button to execute. Select "go back option" to go back to the main screen, then scroll down to advance -- hit power button to select Wipe Dalvik cachedata cache. Now you ready to use "install zip from sdcard" option, browse to where the pbj kernel zip file, executed! you're done.

up volume - to scroll up

down volume - to scroll down

power button - to execute

select "go back" option and hit power button - to go back to previous screen.

Good luck bro.

okay i got everything the way i like it and everything works pretty good except wifi...

i updated for FP1 completely stock, then flashed eclipse, then PBJ, and now wifi scans and then turns off.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
FP1 rom doesn't like custom kernel (pbj). There is a fix for it but it may works for some and not the others, you can give it a shot and please report back. Take a look at this in the OP: "Issue with FP1 rom using custom kernel ". Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
i don't know how to do that i just rooted first time, but will PBJ eventually release a fix for it?
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Yes, eventually in the future there will be something build that compatible with the new FP1. But if you download "root browser lite" from the market and learn how to browse/copy/rename functions and you can do it. Most of people preferred to use "root explorer", but this one cost money. You should learn how to use this tool, if you want to play with your phone. It's a must tool when come to droid hacking.

Trying to install my modem on Humble 5.0. Not working? Also, the file size i am downloading is 630kb. Isn't that a little small for a modem?
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
Okay I downloaded the root explorer lite. Seems pretty straight forward. Where can I find that file on the rom I need to replace and which ep4 rom do u recommend I take it from?

Nevermind I re-read and he says where it is. thanks so much!

Now should I just basically move the file over from SD card while phone is on?

I copied file from sd card while phone is on to that folder and it's a no go on wifi.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jfleegle:
Well, I messed something up somehow...

I followed 8, and flashed the latest CWM via Odin, then rebooted into Recovery and applied the Charge-FP1-DeoDebloatedRooted.zip update, then shut down and connected back up to Odin and installed the FP1 Stock Kernel.

Then I rebooted into Recovery again and tried to apply teh FP1 modem, but got an error. So I Odined the EP4D modem, then reboooted back into CW and applied the EP4D to EP1 modem patch and it was successful this time.

But when I rebooted the phone, it goes to the "Samsung" screen and never gets past that. Any idea what happened and how I can fix this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
After flashed this Charge-FP1-DeoDebloatedRooted.zip update, reboot phone make sure come up. Then shutdown and do the kernel.... Make sure you allow your phone to fully boot up then shutdown and do the second one. You can not flash everything at once.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jfleegle:
Crap... Well, I already messed it up, is there a way to fix it?

---------- Post added at 01:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

---------- Post added at 02:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 PM ----------

Well, I restored that backup from July and it booted. The modem shoed it was the FP1 version. I re-applied the Charge-FP1-DeoDebloatedRooted.zip update and now it loads to the Samsung screen, then keeps rebooting.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Use Odin to bring it back to stock EP4D, if not working bring it back to EE4, then odin to EP4D. Good luck.

After you're on EP4D, do this;

1. OTA upgrade to FP1

2. Flash FP1 debloated/deodex/root rom (I suggest you should try tweastock version2 instead)
[Verizon Droid Charge] jfleegle:
I tried Odining back to EP4D and I think I made things worse. The update failed, and now it's not even giving me the Samsung screen. It has a screen with a picture of a white flip phone with a dotted-line that has a yellow triangle with an exclaimation mark connected to a while picture of a computer.

HELP!

[Verizon Droid Charge] NotATreoFan:
Check out imnuts' site. You can try the EP4D ODIN file + the PIT file to fix partitions. Also try a different USB port, preferably in the back of the machine nearest the power supply.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jfleegle:
I downloaded the .pit file from http://www.imnuts.org/odin-packages and tried again with EP4D .md5 I got from the same page and it still won't flash.

So.... What's the easiest current generation Verizon phone to Root? Looks like I'm going to have to replace it. THIS is why I was afraid to try updating it in the first place
[Verizon Droid Charge] iXNyNe:
I've gone through all that with other Samsung devices. Its very unlikely that you're bricked. That flip phone screen is a low level download mode. Use the full factory ep4d to recover (the 548mb one)

Leave auto reboot on, basically just get to the flip phone screen while unplugged, open Odin. Plug in. PDA = ep4d stock. Start

Let it finish and it should boot itself. Then go to settings, about, update and do the ota update (over the air) then go from there for whatever custom stuff you want.

Samsung knows this type of stuff happens, flashing fails sometimes, that's why they programmed the low level download mode.

Make sure you have the latest Samsung drivers and don't have kies installed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jfleegle:
A friend suggested that I try flashing the firmware with the battery inserted in the phone, and it worked. I was booting into download mode by removing the battery, then holding the vol down button and plugging in the USB cable. I wasn't putting the battery back in before starting upload with Odin. Once I put the battery back in, Odin worked fine. My only problem now is that the FP1 modem update didn't want to install. I'm still trying to figure out why that is...

Edit to add: Once I got Odin working again, I flashed back to the original stock, then flashed an EP4D update that included the EP4D modems, and flashed another to update the Kernel to EP4D. How the FP1 modem update is failing.
[Verizon Droid Charge] BattsNotIncld:
So you want to be on the EP4 build + kernel, but have the FP1 modem? If you are on EP4 and just boot up the phone you can go to Settings>About Phone>Check for Updates to get the OTA update. That will put the phone on the complete FP1 build + modem and everything.

[Verizon Droid Charge] deafptl4ever:
Your screwed buddy. That's the norm here.
[Verizon Droid Charge] nitroglycerine33:
You are perfectly fine deleting install a recovery.sh. You actually want to delete this if you are running a custom recovery with a stock kernel. That script pulls the recovery from the kernel and overwrites the custom recovery.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Howdy sunshine - come to spread your joy again today?

This. If you are leery to delete that file for whatever reason you can always throw a .bak on it or the like as well, or change permissions on it to 000, etc. Like Nitro said, if you are running a stock (or modified-by-you version anyway) build you'll want that gone. Note though that some use that file to do other things - recent supersu installs use it to get around 4.3 root issues, you can use it to allow init.d support on an unmodified stock kernel, etc. In those cases you'd want to leave it be, but that likely doesn't apply here - just thought I'd point it out regardless :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Make sure you have R/W permission before you copied over the old file and you need to reboot after done.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Yes, the file size is correct, but make sure you are on EP4D modem (not EP4P) before flashing for it to work.
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
Okay I rebooted and the file I copied is still there so I assume I have Read/Write permissions, and the WiFi still doesn't work with the infinity ROM EP4 file I used.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
The modems aren't full modem files. They are patches only from EP4D to FD1. They require you to be on EP4D radios and will not work with any other version. If you are using a Humble 5 installation with no other changes, you are on EP4P radios, not EP4D.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
FP1 modem is definitely faster and better.

My face book loaded 235 pictures in a flash, with the old modem usually took a few min, then row by row showing up, here the screen filled with all the pictures in a flash. My web browser is also kick-ass. Speed test is still the same, not faster, I have 20meg down and 12 meg up. No more cracking voice. I thought I don't have cracking voice, but after the new modem, I did have cracking voice. now I can tell it's a nice improvement on the voice. Definitely something is done right to this new modem.

Custom rom upgrade to factory FP1 with root and cwm (with FP1 kernel)

- If you are on Tweakstock/Eclipse and would like to move to FP1, first you have to ODIN back to stock EP4D, then download the Factory FP1 package (http://www.mediafire.com/?zxnfxmmcoky81sz), rename the this package to update.zip, place it on your SD card, then use STOCK recovery to flash this update.zip. Reboot phone then shut it back down then Odin cwm (0302 blue latest version) with "reboot" option unchecked, after completed, pull the battery, reinstall battery, hold down volume up+home+power to boot into cwm, flash Super user package zip (Superuser-3.0.7-efgh-signed.zip). Reboot phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] AndroidCraig:
So I Odined back to Stock EP4D, then flashed the stock FP1 with no problems.

I tried to flash the DeBloated Deodexed FP1 through stock recovery with no success. It fails. Do I need to Odin CWM then Flash Debloated FP1?

Help is always welcome.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mautai916:
got it! Thanks guys
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Yes, stock recovery is only use to flash stock FP1. You need to Odin cwm 0302 and super user, after flashed cwm, do not let your phone boot up, pull battery, then put it back in, then hold down volup + home+ power button to boot straight into cwm and flash deodexed/debloated rom. Everything you need is in the OP page.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PreceptorJR:
Hey all,

I've read through all the posts on this thread (and the other two). I have a question. I am running the ep4d stock deodexed debloated rom. I want to install the entire fp1 update. Can I just flash it via CWM? Or should I go back and start from scratch?

Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
I recommend you should do the following since I have no idea what kernel and modem are in your phone and you need to get back to factory stock EP4 in order to use Stock recovery:

1. You can go back to pure stock EP4D with stock kernel either with ODIN or CWM:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1366041

2. Download the Factory FP1 package (http://www.mediafire.com/?zxnfxmmcoky81sz), rename the this package to update.zip, place it on your SD card, then use STOCK recovery to flash this update.zip. Reboot phone then shut it back down then Odin cwm (0302 blue latest version- http://imnuts.net/zU2jkn) with "reboot" option unchecked, after completed, pull the battery, reinstall battery, hold down volume up+home+power to boot into cwm, flash Super user package zip (Superuser-3.0.7-efgh-signed.zip - http://www.mediafire.com/?dowo6gy34oclutq ). Reboot phone.

Now you should have pure FP1 stock rom and kernel with cwm and rooted.

One more thing. I can't flash in CWM now. I install it via Odin, but when I flash, it says "can't mount SD card"... when I try to mount it gives me an error.

Is there a reason why CWM doesn't stick after I reboot the phone. When I do vol+, home, power it takes me to stock recovery.

I got the answer to the second part, but not the first about the SD mount.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
After installed stock FP1, reboot the phone, once it completely up, turn it off. Then Odin cwm (0302 blue latest version- http://imnuts.net/zU2jkn) with "reboot" option unchecked, after completed, pull the battery, reinstall battery, hold down volume up+home+power to boot into cwm, flash Super user package zip (Superuser-3.0.7-efgh-signed.zip - http://www.mediafire.com/?dowo6gy34oclutq ). Reboot phone. Now you should have cwm and rooted FP1. The trick here is after you flashed cwm, don't reboot the phone, you must do the vol up+hom+power to go into cwm right away.
