stl110

Folks seem to be having an issue with this, so:

mount -t rfs -o nosuid,nodev,check=no /dev/block/stl10 /dbdata

In stl10, the third character is a lowercase "L", the fourth is a numerical one.

Some fonts seem to be making it hard to tell. It looked like evanl81's post had it wrong, and I know I was typing it in wrong until I finally gave up and copy/pasted it into my CMD window. (Lo and behold...it worked.)

Hope this helps some folks. (restoring to a CWM or Nandroid backup seems to be key...everyone made a CWM backup immediately after rooting...right? ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] Sithben24:
Thanks a lot. I've had trouble everytime but this worked perfectly.
[Fascinate Android Development] dricacho:
How do I verify that the voodoo lagfix has been disabled?? I used the automatic uninstaller using voodoo_uninstall_1_4.zip.
[Fascinate Android Development] Sithben24:
If it starts alright probably. Haha
[Fascinate Android Development] Njzkrish:
Thanks the .zip uninstall worked fast and without any problems.
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
LOL...yeah, thats a good sign :D
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Just run a quadrant. You should be close to stock Galaxy S scores.
[Fascinate Android Development] starscream84:
Ok, so after step 4, phone boots up... can I then reboot into recovery and restore a nandroid I made, or do we have to go the re-set up everything and Titanium? I just ask because a nandroid would be quicker, but I didn't want to mess anything up.
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Providing the nandroid was created with voodoo disabled, it should work.
[Fascinate Android Development] starscream84:
Voodoo disabled nandroid, check... I guess ill find out if it will work in about 10 min =)
[Fascinate Android Development] Mageta:
I used the Uninstaller and it worked perfectly!

I did lose root, but a small price to pay if you ask me.

Thank you, to all that made it possible for scrubs like me to be able to FUBAR their phones and bring them back!

I will donating to someone, hopefully to the person that deserves it. I assume the OP of this thread?

:D
[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
Your assumption would be correct on if you want to donate the op of this thread would be the one to give the donation to.
[Fascinate Android Development] cckeeler:
This may be a dumb question. But do I need to disable voodoo before doing this? Also, if I am going to use the unistaller, do I need to have the other two files downloaded, or is that all part of the unistaller?
[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
The first thing you need to do is disable voodoo. If that goes smoothly then you won't need to run this uninstaller.
[Fascinate Android Development] Protonus:
Thanks for this. I trid to disable lagfix today, but as many others had issues, I did as well. Hung for 50 minutes at a blank screen with the key lights lit, after the VZW logo dissapeared... saw many others with this issue too. Finally pulled battery and used your auto installer and i'm back up.
[Fascinate Android Development] cckeeler:
I haven't tried to disable voodoo yet, but I want to be completely rid of it, is it just a matter of disabling and flashing the stock kernel, or do I need to go through this process?
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Instructions in the first post. The OP knows his stuff, this is it.
[Fascinate Android Development] cckeeler:
I just want to say thanks. The uninstaller worked perfect. Just one question, am I ok to delete the mbr folder after its complete?
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Yes- perfectly fine to remove.
[Fascinate Android Development] mattstakilla:
I backed up my information, ran the .zip, but didn't clear data or do data reset in stock or clockwork. Just did step 1.

The phone started up no problem (without the voice of voodoo) and I had no problems. No fc's or anything. Ran quadrant and I'm def back to stock.

My question is, was it necessary to do the data resets? Should I still go back and do them?
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
As long as you are booting, I wouldn't worry about it. The steps are somewhat redundant, but cover all scenarios.

For instance, Ive been able to get away without wiping, only to not be able to get away with it the next time.
[Fascinate Android Development] mattstakilla:
Gotcha. Well I hasn't had any problems and even flashed a new rom without any problems so I guess I'm clear. How people could mess this up is beyond me!

Thanks for the fast response

For those of you who have any doubts. Adrynalyne is the effen man. He knows android better than most in this forum. All hail adrynalyne!!! OK adrynalyne I don't worship u but ur my buddy
[Fascinate Android Development] ellisz:
Stupid question...

I removed voodoo with the remove_lagfix file via adb. Worked fine. If I want to keep it off, do I just leave the remove_lagfix file or should I load the stock kernel or another non-voodoo kernel? I deleted the file and locked up. Had to re-boot and now have voodoo again :)
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
Can't I just revert back using clock work... Like before I installed voodoo? Or will that not work?

[Fascinate Android Development] cckeeler:
I successfully removed voodoo with the uninstaller, am I ok to delete the voodoo folder on my sd card?
[Fascinate Android Development] barrettcook2000:
Saved my butt

Hey adrynalyne, I just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work. I tried the disable lagfix method and failed miserably. I guess it just didn't like my phone because all I was able to get to was the Verizon boot screen. I really didn't want to lose all the information I had gathered since I installed voodoo, but in the end I had to cut my losses and use your automatic uninstaller. It worked beautifully. Once voodoo was gone all I had to do was run CMW and I am back in action. Only lost a weeks worth of data.

YOU ARE THE MAN!!! THANK YOU!!!!

I will also let you know if I run into any issues that may have been caused by the uninstaller... But for now, it looks good.
[Fascinate Android Development] betcmrekoapl:
Thank you so much for the uninstaller!!! You're the man!!!! Donating now. Also, thanks to Phoenixpath for holding my hand and walking my dumbass through trying to fix my mistakes.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Been there enough times myself. This uninsalller really needs it's own "fixes yer sh**" topic. ;)

Beamed from my Zinc 1.1 Fascinate (Dirrks D02 LV 1250) OC.

MBR and Voodoo folders are safe to remove.
[Fascinate Android Development] bL33d:
will this restore stock kernel so i dont need setcpu to run at 1ghz?
[Fascinate Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
Yes.

This should be a sticky or be in one of the sticky threads.

[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
This un-installer needs it's own NEW thread, titled along the lines of, ' This WILL fix your phone unless you bricked it permanently.'

Now all we need is a version of this that comes with and restores a nandroid image. (Make a ROM out of it, like jt's clean, download via rom manager with options)
[Fascinate Android Development] bL33d:
this worked thanks adrenalyn :D

HELP!!!

Iam still getting the voice command of vodoo. what do I do to restore my phone back to normal??? i need my market back.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
If you are still getting the voice, you need to use the zip uninstaller from the OP.

Follow the instructions given to copy it to your SD card and install it via CWM.
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Follow the directions in the first post?
[Fascinate Android Development] barrettcook2000:
Saved me again

The uninstaller has saved me twice now. Thanks.

So it is now obvious that my phone does not like voodoo, it will not let me disable it to do any backups or anything for some reason. So I am now asking the community if anybody out there knows of any non-voodoo OC kernels for the Samsung Fascinate? Do any of them support custom boot animations?

Thanks all.

And a special thanks to the OP.

P.S. still not finding any problems with the uninstaller, works great!
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Voodoo is great when you don't F with it. I flashed a theme with voodoo disabled and it didn't like that. Stuck on black. Uninstaller worked like a charm. Good thing I had a pre voodoo post root/cwm nandroid. Thank you very kindly adrynalyne.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
Help ?

so do i just put the uninstaller file on the root of my SD card like any other zip file and run it in clockwork ?
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Yup. And follow the other steps verbatim.

good day. From the Fascinate sporting the XDA app.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
hmm I guess I'll give it a try, thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
ok so I just ran and it said it worked, but then when i booted up I got all the way to the verizon splash screen and it stayed there for awhile then the screen went blank. the soft keys are let up...
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
And you are sure that steps 2 and 3 were done properly. Meaning you went back to stock recovery (blue text) did what it said and then went back to clockwork (green text) and did what it said?

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
yea i had to do the data wipe... but o well thanks for the help.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
now i cant log into my gmail account... lol... and yes i did #228...
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
No pre voodoo nandroid you could restore?

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] seanatsb:
Thanks Adrynalyne. Saved my ass as just simply trying to de-activate Voodoo put my phone into perpetual reboot. Stared at a droid pissing on an apple for an hour and a half before I finally pulled the battery and had to wipe my device. good thing for nandroid backup before i installed voodoo. bought you a beer (a beer at happy hour). check your paypal.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
Yup thanks to uninstaller and a backup I'm back and running.

[Fascinate Android Development] andrew1263:
Sorry if this question is dumb (not too familiar with clockwork) but when I reboot to get into clockwork (holding down the UP+down volume and power button) I get to the clockwork screen and see 4 options: Reboot, apply sdcard:update.zip, wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition. Do i need to rename the uninstaller "update.zip" and run it like that? The only way for me to see the voodoo uninstaller.zip is in ROM manager, but i'm not supposed to use that...
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Do not rename anything and leave that update.zip alone. In stock recovery (blue text) highlight apply sdcard:update.zip and hit home button. Now you should be in clockwork (green text). In clockwork the back button is accept. Then continue with steps from first post.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
chopper,

Thanks for helping out in this thread. It has been very, very helpful.
[Fascinate Android Development] andrew1263:
Thanks Chopper! That really helped. I noticed that my battery indicator hasn't changed (I change it to a more accurate one that displayed the %ages), which I thought would be erased..

Does anyone else notice the market being a little slow in terms of downloading and installing? Also, all my "stock apps" are gone, like the ones I removed via Titanium, is this normal (since I thought it'd update it back to stock)? I was hoping to fix the problem I did of removing the apps instead of freezing them...
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
andrew1263 you are basically back to the stock kernel (which is good). And unlike winmo android does not store an image of the rom so when you titaniumed those apps they are gone. And yes freezing is the sweetest option because memory is not even an issue on this device so no real gain by deleting. The best thing you could have done was a post root/cwm/titanium/before anything else (especially voodoo) nandroid and then every step in between. But obviously there are options to get you back to stock in the forum as well. Was the market doing a complete batch process of all apps? But be glad it's working I guess.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
No more voodoo kernels for me. Had to do a complete restore of my phone again today after disabling the lagfix the normal way caused a boot loop.

Thanks again adrynalyn, for this AWESOME fix. Saved my ass again.

Probably won't need it again, unless voodoo gets cleaned up to the point where it doesn't inexplicably break a flash that is working perfectly.
[Fascinate Android Development] ehasley:
If I have a nandroid back up that is pre-voodoo can I just go back to tha with out disabling the lagfix first? Or do I have to get rid of voodoo no matter what?
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Remove voodoo first. Then do your nandroid restore. Good thing you have a pre voodoo nandroid.

good day.

good day. From the Fascinate sporting the XDA app.
[Fascinate Android Development] hyann:
okay sorry guys, I have been at this for 5 hours and am getting nowhere.

I have totally messed up everything due to following and failing all the posts.

basically, I had voodoo+root, decided to unroot to wait for 2.2 (mistake 1), did not know to disable voodoo first (mistake2), and went back to odin stock. That led to the 0.00 internal memory issue. I followed the steps in the post for fixing the 0.00 and failed at the re-rooting step. I have reflashed odin stock/recovery/kernel multiple times and already added a folder disable_lagfix. But below are my symtoms now.

1. I have no phone reception. I'm sure I did not click the phone each time in odin, but I still have no phone.

2. I have no internal memory, 0.00 again.

3. I am now at stock version UI.

4. Each time I reboot, the metallic female sound comes again "data partion wipe detected, converting data partition ...step1....step 2....conversion successful. Then it boots. And if I reboot it again the sounds starts the whole process again.

I have no root, and no memory so I cant do clockwork recovery.

I have all the odin files, the voodoo uninstaller is on my sd but I cant use it, I have the adrynalyne stock.zip, but original.mbr looks weird (512 byte?is that right? if you use right click it shows as a html file and if you save that thats 512 bytes).

And I dont know how to use adb or IRC.

Is there any way I can get out of these? please? I am so defeated now....
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Oh boy aren't you in a pickle. Even though you flashed the kernel in odin you are still on the voodoo kernel. Because you still hear the *****. Lets see where below gets you.

Hold both vol. up and down and push and hold power button to get in stock recovery (blue text) highlight apply sdcard:update.zip and hit home button. Now you should be in clockwork (green text). In clockwork the back button is accept. Then continue with steps from first post.

Are you able to get to clockwork this way?

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] hyann:
Nope, sorry,

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

Is it possible that my update.zip on sd is incorrect?

where can I get a good update.zip?

Thanks man......grabbing on floating wood now....
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Update zip http://dl.dropbox.com/u/458252/Fascinate%20Files/update.zip

And you didn't do anything with the other i.e. rename or move?

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] hyann:
Thanks for the prompt help man. Unfortunately, it seems this update.zip is the same as was already on my sd, so I'm getting the same message. It just starts to apply update.zip and then hangs while verifying update package.

sigh....

Do you have a good post root / pre voodoo nandroid?

So once you get rid of voodoo you can go to that.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] hyann:
No, I dont have nandroid, (yes, thats mistake 108) but I can live with that. I just got my phone < 1 month ago so I can re-setup everything.

I'm now finally completely into stock with no voodoo and root. yay. But....I dont have phone. I cant dial *228 cause I dont have phone at all and it wont let me dial anything. I keep turning airplane mode off and it keeps showing back on. Did I brick my phone part?

Saved my phone! I neglected to create the uninstall file before trying to flash back to a saved image on my phone. Then it went into endless FC. This got me back up and running and restored to my pre-voodoo image.
[Fascinate Android Development] waroftheworlds:
Should i be doing anything more??

I uninstalled voodoo by creating the "disable lagfix" folder method mentioned on the voodoo site. But after the restart i still have the color fix thing enabled on my device :( which i dont like as the brightness is screwed. Should i be running this uninstaller to remove it??

If so can anyone please update me as i am new to this terminology.
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Yeah if you want voodoo color gone, you will need to completely uninstall voodooo.
[Fascinate Android Development] jamboy5590:

OK so i followed all the steps right to the one were I goto advance mode reboot into stock recovery now only the vol up button works and when i restart my phone it just goes back to recovery HELP :(

So if you still have down control can you get back to cwm by applying update zip? And will doing that restore up/down control?

[Fascinate Android Development] magitues:
I hope someone can explain what just happened ...

I've been running one-click root with 1.2ghz voodoo w/boot animation flawlessly for some time now. The combinations of froyo supposedly on the horizon and the new roms made me want to remove it.

My plans were to disable voodoo with the disable_lagfix folder, then run a titanium backup because I have a lot of apps installed after voodoo was installed. Then I was going to restore my pre-voodoo nandroid and delete the voodoo folder and finally restore my titanium backup.

So I created the folder disable_lagfix and rebooted, told me it was converting the file system and it said success. After boot I'm missing all my root apps except superuser it seems. CWM, titanium, rommager, and it looks like all apps installed after voodoo are also gone (which was A LOT). I deleted the disable_lagfix folder to enable voodoo and the apps are still gone. Everything thats still on the phone seems to work.

Im going to try the voodoo uninstaller directions unless theres something I can do but I need suggestions. I've apparently lost hours of work. (lots of financial data/budgets and such)

If there's nothing else I can do but completely remove voodoo and start from my pre-voodoo nandroid and titanium backup then I can handle that, but I'd really like to know why the hell this happened. Everything on this phone was stock except root and voodoo. All apps and bloatware were even untouched.

Thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
You should be fine with the uninstaller. And if you have a post root,titanium install / prevoodoo nandroid you should be golden. You might find some answers in the last couple pages about procedure.

gtood day
[Fascinate Android Development] magitues:
yeah I've got all the safeguards in place, even put the uninstaller on the sd card before trying to disable voodoo just in case.

but I wish I knew why this happened in the first place.

as always, thanks for your help chopper!
[Fascinate Android Development] magitues:
very strange, everything went well until after restoring my latest nandroid. After reboot I got a blank screen with lit up softkeys.

I tried my original nandroid and it works, so I think I'll try the other one again.

Also, after restoring both nandroids I got the following message:

restoring datadata

restoring cache...

sd-ext.img not found. skipping restore of /sd-ext/.

Put it back in the Fascinate and followed the instructions verbatim. Worked flawlessly after that, thank you so much Adrynalyne.
