I consistently got freezing/lock ups requiring battery pulls on jt's 1200. In Quadrant every time coming up those stairs in that 3D test. Also once or twice a day if I got a text or email at the same time I was opening another app or browser I'd lock.

I've had no issues at all whatsoever with Dirrk's 1200LV [tried the SV too but since I can run the LV might as well]

The boot animation trick "/system/media or /data/local" is not working for me. I used the extracted bootanimation file from the download at the top of the page but nothing happened. Same damn boot animation.
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Just to double check, did you pick the kernel download with boot animation capabilities? What are you using to copy the file over? Are you unzipping it? Because for this, you do not unzip the file. And lastly, make sure you are not copying it to sdcard/data. ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] NuclearEMP:
Not sure if anyone else can test this but when playing N.O.V.A. with the Voodoo 0.2 kernal I seem to be having a slight glitch with the multitouch. When moving around the onscreen controller keeps getting stuck when walking and then it will stop, I didn't have this issue before just wanted to see if others could try it out.
[Fascinate Android Development] kupdegrove:
Thanks tats,

I did as you instructed but still nothing but the galaxy/verizon boot screen. What am I missing? I notice that the zip contains a couple of other folders/files as well. What are these for?
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
The only thing I can see from you message is that you extracted it...but you should not extract it. I have done the boot animation change many times and it always worked. Are you using root explorer?
[Fascinate Android Development] saps:
Thank you kindly sir. You are the man :)
[Fascinate Android Development] cesium:
Hey, hate to ask a real noob question... To flash this kernel, I place the zip on my sd card and flash through cwm? Do I have to flash the hacked stock kernel first? Thanks!!
[Fascinate Android Development] CheetoDroid:
I want my phone to talk like that all the time!
[Fascinate Android Development] Gitykins:
This has it's own kernel. You don't need to do anything besides be rooted and have cwm.
[Fascinate Android Development] Tkun:
Thanks, I appreciate the quick response. I'm going to flash the kernel right now. :)

I know I love the female 'droid' voice. Nice touch jt :cool:

Also getting this while charging
[Fascinate Android Development] Tkun:
I saw that battery not connected thing too. What I did to fix that was unplug any cords connected, turn off my phone, take out the battery and reinsert the battery. Once it booted up again everything was fine! :)
[Fascinate Android Development] ksizzle9:
how do u disable lagfix n this? Just for future reference? I should ask this in irc but I'm not in by the PC right now
[Fascinate Android Development] dlongb13:
This worked for me as well.
[Fascinate Android Development] Gitykins:
adb shell

touch /sdcard/Voodoo/disable_lagfix
[Fascinate Android Development] itstee:
its on the first post

"Once you've flashed this kernel, don't just go flashing other kernels. Voodoo changes some key parts of your system and you will have fix them by hand if you flash another kernel without removing voodoo first. To remove, simply do 'adb shell touch /sdcard/Voodoo/disable_lagfix' and then reboot. If you want to re-enable voodoo, then remove that file."
[Fascinate Android Development] kupdegrove:
Am I supposed to just rename the downloaded file to bootanimation.zip or extract the bootanimation.zip contained in the file? I did the latter. Maybe that's where I'm going wrong?

Also, there were three files. I see there is a kernel image in all of them. Are they different? I used the file without the animations because I thought they were "add-ons" and not inclusive.
[Fascinate Android Development] kupdegrove:
Samsung Fascinate Boot Animation

Was I just supposed to rename the downloaded file to bootanimation.zip or extract the bootanimation.zip file contained within? I did the latter. Maybe that's my mistake?

Also, there are three files. Each has a kernel image. I assumed the kernel was the same in all of them. I used the first file (no animation in the title). Am I supposed to use the kernel from the animated file?
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Do not extract it....just make sure file name is bootanimation.zip and copy it to the data/local or system/media. Devs sometimes name the files just to differentiate...so if it is something like redbootnimation.zip....just rename it and take out the "red" part. Does this make sense?
[Fascinate Android Development] kupdegrove:
Yes. I'll try simply renaming it and moving it into the appropriate location. So I should not need to worry about installing the kernel in the 1000...animation.zip file correct?
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
If you already flashed one of the voodoo kernels that allow a different boot animation, then don't worry about anything else. Find the boot animation you like and use it. ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] kupdegrove:
Awesome! All fixed. Thanks for all your help! Droid is now happily peeing on Apple :-) Can you recommend any good sites for other animations?
[Fascinate Android Development] jorge3687:
how do you make the disable_lagfix file in the phone?
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
I used Root Explorer app...open it, go to sdcard/Voodoo....tap menu>more>new file...then just name it disable_lagfix ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
I am glad it's working for you now...enjoy it!!!! :)

[Fascinate Android Development] Jeff5886:
just installed the 1.2 overclock kernal. everything works perfect.

questions...

1. where can i get a different boot load animation

2. i installed setcpu. do i just drag the bar from 8k to 12k and exit?

thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] 313:
Working fine but my youtube gives a force close notification after I boot.. Other that it work fine.. Any way to prevent this..

Appreciate any help this phone is amazing lol

Sent from my rooted, clean & voodoo'd SCH-I500
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
1. You can use any boot animation you can find as long as resolutions is similar. Nexus one has some nice ones, so does Droid.

2. Yep. If phone doesn't like it, drag the arrow back or switch to a different kernel. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] tonyb81:
Will this ever reach the point to where it doesn't need to be rooted to be installed.

from the faq of the site.
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
No.
[Fascinate Android Development] tonyb81:
any particular reason as to why?
[Fascinate Android Development] jt1134:
If you install voodoo and don't have root it would be very difficult to recover from any kind of problem.

help

I'm a noob and trying to learn. After reading everything over and over I tried to flash the lag fix. It rebooted in only a couple of mins with no voice. It seems to work (high quadrant score and very fast) but I am not able to download apps now. I restored and downloaded apps fine but everytime I flash same thing happens. Did not use a boot animation. Thought it was optional. Was I wrong. Flashed using ROM Manager. Should I be using Odin?

Are you talking about market? Try clearing cache...or force stopping market. Restoring will NOT restore your data as cwm data is broke with ext4. ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] jamiekuhn:
I am talking about market. I tried clearing cache and force stopping. Still isn't working. It's killing me because everything is so fast while installed and market is the only problem. Any other suggestions?

You skipped a step. see above.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] Sgtmack:
I wonder if you have the 0 internal memory problem? Go to settings, SD card & phone storage, and see what is says for Internal phone storage.

If it is 0, try this;

Read the instructions for flashing the voodoo kernel very carefully. If it failed, more than likely you missed something. Try flashing a voodoo kernel again, and see if you get the voice. If you do, use the "how to remove voodoo" instructions then flash back a stock kernel. If you don't, try this thread;http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=804457

It involves an Odin flash back to stock, so you will need to re install your apps, but it should get you working again.
[Fascinate Android Development] mikesaimname:
UGH!!

I'm not an idiot, promise...

I flashed the voodoo fix....does that install the kernal too at the same time i'm assuming...or do I have to do that seperately?

It definitely worked...i'm running 1700+ benchmarks and all...but no matter what I can't install one of these bootanimations...mine nor any of the ones people have made

any help appreciated
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Voodoo is a kernel...so you are good ;)

What steps are you using to run the custom boot animation...

A couple things I can suggest...are:

-do not unzip/extract the file

-copy to data/local or system/media...make sure not to sd card

-make sure the file is named bootanimation.zip with no extra letters

:)
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
I have rooted my d1 and 2 bunches of times, but I am now trying to root this fascinate and it seems to be fighting me. I rooted and then I flashed clockwork with rom manager. I tried to do a backup and it boots into recovery and then it tries to load a package and fails. So I tried to just go ahead and flash voodoo and it won't do that either, it appears to be looking for an update.zip file. Do I need to rename voodoo or what am I doing wrong?

Thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Do you have any 3g/wifi connectivity issues? Just to make sure. I know my 2.2 market is not working...just 2.1 and the downloads are fine. If all in all is not working, this is what I would do...

1. Disable voodoo lagfix

2. Run a nandroid backup

3. Wipe data/cache

4. Reflash the rom

5. Set things up and reflash voodoo

Or you can try pulling the market app just itself and copy it over into system/app...its the vending.apk.

Here is the voodoo thread, just in case... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=807088
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
When cwm is flashed, it leaves an update.zip on root of sd card. Whatever you do, do not delete that file. What I would do is download rom manager and flash clockwork recovery from it. Then it will restore that update.zip file. If you have the update.zip file, try selecting "aplly update.zip from sd card" and that should take you to cwm recovery. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] mikesaimname:
I promise I have done all of those things....i tried copy and pasting via root manager...even tried via adb...and nada...

My bootup sound changed no problem...but the animation still wont...

any other ideas anyone?
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
well I screwed up I guess. I have rom manager pro from the market. I had deleted the update.zip file, but I did a reflash of clockwork and it put it back, it still fails to verify the whole-file signature and signature verification failure.
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Ok..so, when you are in stock recovery, and you select "Apply update.zip from sd card"...it still fails?

I would just re-run the steps to flash cwm.

Link: ROOT, Recovery, Update and More... :)
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Where does it fail? when you are trying to flash the update.zip or the kernel itself?
[Fascinate Android Development] t3hjonneh:
ohfire, You need to use odin to flash the fix to the recovery manager that allows it to accept full text signatures. This can be done by following the steps on this page: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788099
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
I just finished loadin odin and flashing, I had not done that before. I rooted using the one click method. I will try to do a backup now and if that works, I will give voodoo a try
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Let us know. Just make sure and read the How to stickied at top a few times...many people have really messed up by not waiting sufficient time or missing a step or two. Definitely ask questions. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
Got is loaded and it is doing a backup now. Looks like that fixed it. thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
it is running through the backup right now. I will definately give the sticky another read before I flash voodoo. Thanks for all your help, I will let you know when it is complete.
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
Hey! Looks like all went well! It completed, rebooted and all seems to be in order. Ran a quadrant of 1689 so I would guess that voodoo is doing its thing. Thanks so much for all of your help. Droid 1 and 2 was pretty easy compared to this, guess I need to do a bit more studying and get this animal figured out a bit more.

Thanks again!
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
It sure is more complicated than other droids I have used for sure... That quadrant score is indicative of voodoo...without it, they would be 900 or less. I am glad all is working for you. Reading definitely helps...Even though I have had and heavily modded other android phones I had...I do feel like a noob sometimes :o

With voodoo...just remember to disable it if you want to run full nandroid backup, as ext4 does not work with cwm recovery...and if you want to flash stock kernel or a non voodoo kernel, disable voodoo first, otherwise, you will run into more issues. Otherwise, enjoy your phone!!! :)
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
I will keep all that in mind. I think the only thing I will be looking for now is the FROYO update, but to be honest, as well as this phone works, don't care if it ever comes!
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:

thx in advance
[Fascinate Android Development] Protonus:
Don't have this issue. Not sure why you would either. Do a full backup of system+apps in Titanium backup to be safe. Go into CWM, and delete Cache, Davalik Cache, and than Fix Permissions. If it's still doing it, outside of that, might want to wipe user data, but you'd lose basically everything doing that. May want to consider it a good excuse to try a new ROM, like the AOSP / Clean Rom's that are posted in this forum, if you're considering a wipe anyways.
[Fascinate Android Development] BeeDubs:
So issues with v0.2 are resoled? I was reading about people having some issues and was wary of installing the lag fix.

But my phone has been lagging quite a bit and I'm really sick of it...

I think I might install this tonight if all seems good.
[Fascinate Android Development] Protonus:
I am not aware of any issues with .2. I flashed it before it was even released here as did many others and have no issues. The only issues with these kernels that I'm aware of, are due to people not reading directions, or not being patient during the conversion.
[Fascinate Android Development] Zirabius:
Hey guys Since I installed this as soon as I connect my fascinate to the pc I get an error saying

[Fascinate Android Development] BeeDubs:
I read that v0.2 messes with CWM. Is that true? That is, I've read that people can't access CWM or can't perform nandroid backups (I believe).

Can you confirm that there are no issues with CWM?

Question. I am following the instructions from here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=807088 ) and I get to step # 6 ( In recovery select "Install zip from sd card". ) I proceed to do so and immediately my screen goes black but the 4 nav keys are lit. I let it sit for over 3 hours simply cause I fell asleep waiting for it to do something and it never did. When I woke up I saw the 4 nav keys were still lit, NOT plugged in being charged or into the computer and the screen still black. Did I do something wrong?

I am rooted via the 1 click root and have successfully installed CWM recovery...I have also backed up using ROM Manager...
[Fascinate Android Development] money226:
Did you hit the home button to select like in the stock recovery? If you did it puts the screen to sleep and you can simply push it again to wake it up. Use the power button to select in CWM.
[Fascinate Android Development] vecchioni27:
That would explain a lot! I hit the home button to "select" at least so I though and never thought that it was the problem. In regular recovery "non CWM" the home button is what I used to boot the phone back up and it worked fine which is why I assumed that is how it worked in CWM. I will give this a shot, thank you so much!

edit - made me feel like an idiot but thanks! Worked and now I am showing a 1591 on quadrant! Thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] schnyd:
Can I do this from Root explorer as well?
[Fascinate Android Development] saps:
Yes you can
[Fascinate Android Development] Jodiuh:
Some questions...

Do I need setcpu for the voodoo_kernel_0.2.zip?

OP mentioned including a 1.2Ghz kernel, but I only see the one listed above. Does this mean it runs @ 1.2Ghz by default? Or that it can run @ that speed?

I've tried using root explorer to put the boot animation in the OP's post into system/media, data/local, and both. I've also tried using the scribble animation, but nothing's working.

I'm doing what wrong, heh? Thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] Mageta:
Ugh, none of the OC kernals are stable on my phone. If I open Google Earth or do anything cpu demanding, it freezes and I have to pull the battery. Scrolling through my apps too fast will cause a freeze, or when I use my camcorder... The only one that is stable is the 1000 or just the voodoo 0.2.

:( Am I the only person with this problem?
[Fascinate Android Development] mattstakilla:
give it a week! classic!
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Was just mentioning in another post that different processors can handle the same kernel different ways. There were a lot of variations that I could run on my N1 that other's couldn't, and vice versa. Even with these, my GF phone handles Dirks without problems, but I occasionally borked when testing, so I run Jt's without a hitch. Try and test each one, and if you already have, then go with what works best.

Guarantee if you tried a different phone, you would get slightly different results.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
So I installed the droid peeing on the apple... How do I uninstall it and go back to stock boot up?

[Fascinate Android Development] bL33d:
I should have my phone soon and will root and install this lagfix as it seems to be the best but what is with the aosp bootanimation? do u lose the bootanimation normally if u use the lagfix?
[Fascinate Android Development] GoogleAndroid:
Can I simply remove the bootanimation.zip file from the downloads so that it won't replace the stock boot animation?
[Fascinate Android Development] ohfire:
I disabled voodoo lag fix as it said to do in the op. Now when I boot, it says data partion wipe detected????
[Fascinate Android Development] kupdegrove:
In my experience, this will only result in a blank bootup screen where the animation would have been. It doesn't affect the boot but, you won't see the original animation unless you have a stock kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] Jodiuh:
Same thing happened to me and I've been fighting w/ this for hours.
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Been through this a couple of times. Only complete solution I've found is full removal of voodoo followed by Odin to stock and a rebuild.

Thankfully that doesn't take long.
[Fascinate Android Development] kupdegrove:
Perhaps I'm misinformed but, isn't this normal with the disable_lagfix? I thought it had to do with which partition was being read by the kernel. Since the ext4 partition is now hidden, it appears as "wiped" to the kernel. Doesn't seem to have any other effect other than the voice.

That's what I thought anyway...
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Perhaps. Providing the phone actually boots and you aren't in FC hell.
