oke, I been seeing a lot of people messing up there phone cause of Voodoo kernel. Please find below step by step guide on how to disable voodoo and flash phone with new Rom. Just trying to help folks around here.

THIS TUTORIAL ASSUMES YOU ALL ALREADY HAVE VOODOO ROM FLASHED.

Step 1)

Go read this tutorial on Team Whiskey website. It has a lot of useful information about voodoo patch.

http://www.teamwhiskey.com/installation-guide/voodoo-rfs

Step 2)

Download the following file posted on there website with disable voodoo.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10700321/disable_voodoo.zip

Step 3)

Place the disable_voodoo.zip in root directory of your 16gig internal memory

Step 4)

Download the new bionix rom with voodoo kernel and place in the root directory of your 16gig internal memory

5) Now with clockwork recovery flash disable_voodoo.zip, you will flash this same way you flash a new rom. This flash will place necessary files to disable voodoo.

6) Reboot the phone and you will hear Linda say that" file system partition being converted to ext2". This takes couple of minute and bionix will boot with voodoo disabled.

7) Now reboot the phone into recovery menu using rom manager.

8) Flash the new voodoo rom as prepared by Bionix.

10) Once the new rom loads up, mount the usb drive and DELETE THE VOODOO FOLDER and reboot the system.

11) Now with the phone rebooted you will hear Linda say " Converting file system to EXT4"

12) Enjoy your new voodoo enabled Bionix Rom

Go into Clockworkmod Recovery (it will reboot your phone and take you into a text based menu-use the volume buttons to move the cursor-power button to select), go to advanced settings, clear dalvik-cache. Reboot, and wait 5 minutes. Then go into Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, Hit the menu button and select filter/all, find Market, and hit the button to clear the cache. wait 5 minutes, then reboot. I had the same issue and did this successfully.

Hope that helps you out.

EDIT: Err, I actually had it tell me that it couldn't find a network connection...my bad. But try the above anyways and at least try to fix_permissions. That can be located in the Clockworkmod Main menu (not the recovery text-based menu, although it is there under the advanced settings i think)

Good luck!

I grabbed the stock kernel version this morning and flashed it this afternoon before I read the posts again. After I flashed, I tried to restore my nandroid (I always make sure that I can flash my backup) and I got stuck at the Vibrant screen. Re-flashed bionix and booted up fine. Will this fix this issue?

[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Not when you flash the Froyo Rom, but it does say to check it when you flash the stock rom:

1. Download Eugenes 'Froyo that does not brick' file.

2. Extract the files.

3. Open Odin, plug in your phone, then put it into download mode.

4. load the PIT file in appropriate area.

5. load the .tar file in the PDA area.

6. DO NOT check 're-partition'.

7. Click start, let it finish. Your phone will load and reboot into stock recovery. It will error out again. DONT panic! This is what's supposed to happen.

8. Now, pull your battery.

9. Download the 'True stock 2.1 firmware for the vibrant'.

10. Extract the files.

11. Once again, open Odin, plug in your phone, put into download mode.

12. Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.

13. THIS TIME you want to check the 're-partition' box.

14. Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine! BAM!

Quick question on your upcoming version when you say no touchwiz do you mean you have removed the launcher or the entire touchwiz system? and which launcher will you be using... please say zeam.
[Vibrant Android Development] rmarquez1974:
Dragoth12,

You my friend sure must be getting tired of re-posting this kind of stuff. That and everyone else. Thank you for your sacrifices!

Not trying to knock the noobs, or people who are looking for a fix using the mobile app (which doesn't have search), but seriously folks...

THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE PIECE OF HARDWARE!!!

Read the instructions multiple times and get an idea of what is needed.

If your on your phone using the mobile app, WAIT until you can get to a PC and do a search!

If you screw something up while nowhere near a PC, you will have to wait until you can get to one to fix things...just easier to be near one so you can search and read, and read, and read....oh yeah, and read! /endRANT
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Oh, well, I pulled that from the OP, not the Larger Nand Voodoo thread. So meh. I would assume it is the same procedure, perhaps it was un-intentionally left off the voodoo thread. Perhaps your not supposed to repartition if you are trying to get teh voodoo to work in a larger nand model. I don't know for sure because I don't use Voodoo. (Bionix lives inside voodoo as a dragon and plays mean tricks on you).

EDIT: After reading the statements that aren't crossed out on the voodoo thread, I would come to the conclusion this was an un-intentional omission. (Also, the voodoo thread would be the appropriate place for the questions, as they don't relate to the ROM in any way, just FYI for future reference).

Not a noob here, my friend. I've been using this ROM since 1.5, **** happens.

Haven't tried pandora, but my music player was crashing. And last time this was happening, it was both crashing. This was back when 1.7 was out. Then installed 1.8 kings and it fixed it. Now with 1.9 kings im having the crash problem again. Hopefully the settings fix will help. If not will ref lash...
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
The launcher. Unfortunately, right now TW is too deeply integrated into the system to remove everything. We will have to leave certain things intact.
[Vibrant Android Development] rmarquez1974:
PepeLasNoches, I'm not calling anyone out. Just saying that people (me included because I have been a few times re-tarded *can i say that in here, lol* and just learn very quickly from my mistakes) should read things multiple times. It really isn't rocket science...

I apologize to you Pepe...**** does happen, but wise man has looked to see he has butt-wipes before sitting to crap... ;-)
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
No problems with Pandora or music player. No crashes, freezes, FCs, etc. My best suggestion is to start with a clean slate in your situation. Odin to stock, root, flash rom. Sucks to do it, but it might be your best bet.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Is this coming anytime soon?
[Vibrant Android Development] Chamgea:
Ok who wants to be awesome and help me out? I've tried searching this thread but it's out of control and hard to find things.

1. How can I adjust the call volume level? It's extremely low. I've tried the HAC

2. How can I remove the voice greeting on start up and shut down?

Please help me out...this is an awesome forum with lots of wisdom ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] coltfoet5:
I have been running this rom since 1.7 and have not seen one crash or freeze. I use pandora and music player daily also. In 1.9 I do see a big improvement in the GPS. Great job on the rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] adm1jtg:
Any chance to have zeam as the replacement launcher?

Also on 1.9 I love the rom and in sleep mode the battery life is beyond stellar however when I started to use gtalk i lost 20% battery in less then an hour. I assume if I wanted to use the J@ modem I could just flash back?

One last question I dont see any way from the about screen and such to tell what modem I am running (I know 19.9 is ji6) just wanted to know if there was an easy way to check modem version
[Vibrant Android Development] Kwintar:
I have a quick question, since you most likely wipe your phone and re-flash then the rest of us.

Do you think its good to also format the phones internal SD card? Of course make sure to save everything before you do this. I have been doing this before wiping to the newer version of your ROM's and they seem to stick or install quite well and I don't have any problems with the app that I use.

By the way nice Job!!! And Thank You very much.

Larger NAND Flashing 1.9 to updated 1.9 Bionix

Forgive me for not remembering if I did it or not, but how can you tell if you "Checked" re-partition when you flashed the stock one?

What happens if I didn't? I'm leaning more towards that I didn't do it, but I've been flashing back and forth for over 7 hours until about 6am this morning, and I don't remember.

BUt. I DO have 1.9 Voodoo working (the version before all the FC issue's were fixed)

Now I also have a question.

I read someone post earlier that you can simply disable-lagfix, reboot, flash, enable voodoo, and it will work.

Or do you have to do the whole process of Froyo no brick, stock, then Bionix 1.9?

I also have the separate settings19_fix.zip that Som posted.

If I go quick fix route, will I lose anything beneficial from the updated/fixed rom?

I have a Big NAND. Unfortunately it won't help me get more girls. haha...

p.s......

I'm only asking this because I don't really know how having the larger NAND affects flashing with voodoo.

...and just need confirmation so I don't mess up my phone.

Not that I haven't read up and know that I am supposed to disable voodoo before flashing, etc...

Thanks

For the sounds, try this thread, first post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7950869&highlight=startup+sound#post7950869

As far as the sound, I have seen some have fixed it with a flash back to stock through Odin and root/reflash of the ROM, but I don't have the issue so IDK.

EDIT: Actually found this for people with the HANDSET volume being to low to hear, although I don't have that issue, I cannot vouch for it:

[Vibrant Android Development] glacon175:
Hey all. I've been getting freezes on my phone every time I play a game, go on the internet while listening to music, among other times. It happens regardless of the kernel... So my question is, do you think I should flash to stock then try reflashing? I also have the larger NAND so can I kill two birds with one stone and follow that guide to go back to stock and allow me to use Voodoo? Hopefully someone can help :)
[Vibrant Android Development] rmarquez1974:
I would definitely give that shot. I personally don't use Eugene No-Brick froyo method for this, I have had good luck with ViralBlack's method...but it is all basically the same thing.
[Vibrant Android Development] glacon175:
Ok I'll definitely try it out. Thanks :)
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
Even though I have flashed 1.7 and 1.8 with different kernels in less than 3 days :(, I think you just pushed me over the top with the 1.9.1 updates. You just can't sit still for more than a second can you. You're gonna get carpal tunnel real quick and we are all going to freak when go down for more than 10 seconds. Nice work!!!!

Oh yeah, and the point about going and looking in other threads to "thank" the other devs is a good one. I have been glued to this thread as it changes so quickly, that I have forgotten to go and thank them myself.
[Vibrant Android Development] sfrench5:
It was awesome

Till i realized I couldn't change the lock screen,,,,,,,, AWESOME feature.... bring it back

Tried flashing 1.9.1 with KK (MD5: d18576345cad482cfd22fe911e228108), get the following error:

--Install from package...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

E:Can't open /cache/update.zip

(No such file or directory)

Installation aborted.

EDIT: Same thing happens when I try to get into ClockworkMod, so I can't get in there now either. I haven't done anything that I can think to mention since I flashed 1.9. I've tried going into ROM Manager and flashing ClockworkMod from there, and it tells me it flashes successfully.

he did, check the OP. its called bionix 1.9.1...

[Vibrant Android Development] DaSmittyman:
i flashed fine, try to redownload it. Also where you download voodoo or what...try just the stock with no oc or anything
[Vibrant Android Development] importbeats:
I just did all of that today. You're gonna have to flash to Froyo no brick, then to stock before you can flash a rom with Voodoo, so go for it. Plus when I flashed to stock, it solved any issues I had with freezes, FC's, etc... so what would it hurt anyway?
[Vibrant Android Development] blackoakx22:

[Vibrant Android Development] techpreneur:
You have a bad download. That happened to me with 1.8
[Vibrant Android Development] glacon175:
Perfect! Exactly the answer I was looking for. Thank you very much sir :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Were pretty sure thats a problem with mediafire, there is a solution being put in play.

As always please post your bug reports with logcats for diagnostics.
[Vibrant Android Development] opiomorph:
A bad download of what? 1.9? So now I'm locked out of ClockworkMod permanently? Do I have to ODIN to stock and reflash just to fix this?

Makes a good case for posting MD5 sums with files I think...
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Well, well, well...look who stopped by! :)

A buddy of mine that has a Vibrant forgot to disable Voodoo and flashed a rom. Is there anything he can do or does he have a nice paper weight lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
Of all the searching and reading I have done on this thread, I don't think I have found a clear answer to this. I hope I am not asking this in the wrong place.:confused: I have made nandroid backups with ROM Manager, and I have backed up all my apps with titanium. Should I be backing up system data with titanium as well so that when I flash a "new" ROM I can use the system data to reload all the icon settings and such?

Right now I am able to easily reinstall my apps with titanium, but I am tired of always reorganizing my home screens and such. (especially when I find a new build every other second)

I just don't want to introduce any bugs or problems by pulling in old data that should not be pulled in after flashing a new ROM. I clear my data and cache before each flash, and I have had nearly no problems with anything, unlike a lot of people on here. THANKS!
[Vibrant Android Development] opiomorph:
I'd love to provide y'all with logs of the error. I know how to work adb somewhat, but what's the proper syntax for the logcat command, and then where is the log stored so I can get to it?

[Vibrant Android Development] opiomorph:
Well, when trying to reboot into recovery, I get the error that it can't open /cache/update.zip because it doesn't exist. I looked in there myself with Root Explorer and sure enough, it's not there. This happens anytime I try to get into ClockworkMod, ie, using ROM Manager to reboot to ClockworkMod, trying to install a ROM, etc.

@Sombionix

You should add links to the threads of the other DEVs in the OP to make it easier for people to find them, and/or thank them for all the work they have done.

I went ahead and did the hard part if you so choose to add it.

And since I know you have many more important things to do than manually add all the links to the OP, I did that for you too so you can just copy/paste in the credits section. :) (I guess Cyanogen doesn't have a Vibrant thread yet, so I simply linked to the Galaxy S Forum on his site).

Click the button at the top of the main menu of Clockwork mod that says Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery. Choose your device (vibrant) and you should be good to go. (This puts the update.zip on your sdcard that allows you to boot into clockwork recovery) If you want to make sure it worked, check your sdcard for the update.zip, it should be there after you use the "Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery" option. First time you use "boot into recovery" you will likely be at stock recovery, simply hit re-install packages and it will take you into clockwork recovery. If I am understanding the problem correctly. (May have to re-install Clockwork Mod)

You follow those directions. In Odin, there is a spot that says PIT, you click it and add the .pit file; than you click the PDA and add the .tar file. Simple as that.

If you are referring to the Download mode, than do the above (open Odin, add the files to it) and than use adb to reboot into download mode. Make sure Odin recognizes it (there will be a yellow box that has COM and a number in it) and you are good to go.
