Yes already read that and flashed it but hung so I obviously had corruption caused by 7.6.2 :(. Then tried curios automatic fixer but that failed to fix it like many others. Attempted a few other methods posted around - failed. I then decided just to flash a stock rom with Odin and start from scratch, flashed 7.6.2 let it boot, amazingly after one boot it caused enough corruption to stop k9 from booting.

besides all that, it obviously makes no sense not to upgrade them to roms that dont corrupt your phone :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
This is a very nice ROM!! Used it for my second flash (first flash was the i9000XWJM9) and I must say this is the next best thing after the official Froyo release XWJPA for my country. It's build oppon that official one, so I'm very satisfied and want to thank you for bringing this ROM to the masses! Not interested in v8 (yet). This will be the one to rely on (as far as I'm conserned) for at least a few months until the next official Froyo pops up. It would be nice to see this official XWJPA being even further updated/debugged and tweaked. Love what you are doing and following this thread (and many others) until my eyes fall a sleep and I can no more.... Keep up this amazing work!

Hey mates, using xxJPO v7.6.2 for a while and loving it, so far everything is smooth and perfect.

I have one question though regarding the Kernel thingie.

Given that I am not a developer and I my knowledge regarding Kernels and stuff is below average, I would like to know in what way does the problem appear.

I mean, I have understood the consequences of the corrupted system, but what I fail to grasp is the pattern that that the problem occurs. In other words, what do I have to do in order to get the problem, so that I will avoid doing it.

Or is it just random?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omnia-one4all:
I think it's way to early to incorporate k9 in doc's rom lets see what the dev do in the next week to make the transition smoother. You might end up with a phone that doesn't work if you use k9 now. Some even say that there isn't a problem and the problem will occur when you upgrade to k9, but just wait a little while I'm sure there will be a much smoother transition to k9. You can read about it in hardcore's thread and threads from supercurio
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mopral:
As I said a few pages back, it is not hard to update Doc's rom file with K9 by yourself

And if you want to be sure that you are "corruption free", you should flash this "modified" Doc's rom on top of a fresh flash of stock rom with repartition
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omnia-one4all:
:) second that
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
If you are on 7.6.2 and did not set up any lagfix followed by the K9 update you are perfectly fine. The bug should be fixed now but others may pop up, that you newer know (and I hope they do so things can fe fixed and software wirks even better) fully testing 7.6.2 the next weeks and will report as many bugs/ issues as I can.

Ok, kernel bug. Easy fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] YG007:
DocRambone:

Nice to see you had a safe trip!

Basically, there was an issue with ULF and /system getting corrupt. Supercurio found it, and Hardcore released a new speedmod kernel.

It could happen to other people running other lagfixes. Personally, it happened to me, and I had no lagfix (could have been some other problem, but something along the same lines happened to me).

Anyways, theres a new speedmod kernel (K9). People are upgrading to it, but if there is any corruption to /system before upgrading, the phone won't boot anymore.

I ended up getting my phone working by flashing a low level stock rom using Odin, then flashing your JPO 7.6.2, upgrading to full, installing UGJK3 modem, and then installing the k9 speedmod kernel.

Apparently some other people are having problems going to k9.

BTW, your JPO 7.6.2 ROM is amazing!! I'm using it with the UGJK3 modem to get 850MHz 3G band, and everything is perfect! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tricky103:
There is a new Kernal K9 from Hardcore that fixes problems on old ulk lagfixes corrupting systems. If you try to flash K9 and your system is corrupt then it will stick on the Samsung screen at the start of boot up..

Easy to fix, just reflash a stock rom via odin, root + cwm and then apply Doc rom of choice. Then flash new kernal.

Otherwise not much

Probably worth a read though Doc
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
Oki, i had some updates waiting, so expect new JPO/JPA v8 tomorrow.... if i find a descent kernel ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tricky103:
Oh Yeah

+ I have managed to erase my bootanimation whilst cooking on the UOT Kitchen..

Just for fun of course..

Any new Ideas Doc.. My phone has been wearing the same skin for a few days now.. I am bored of it.

Updated 1st post!

ATTN: DUE TO A FOUND BUG IN THE KERNELS

Fix:

Reinstall rom (NO WIPE, no reboot)

Install new kernel, ex Hardcore k9 or later.

Reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
heh, way ahead of you pal, i did that this morning with barebone and it worked perfectly. then flashed the fixed YA-OK kernel and all running smooth as silk.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
Yes, so easy to fix, why all buzz?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
because people started to panic due to some very sensational thread titles! yeah, no problems at all.

one thing i've noticed is there are now SO many non technical people on here and it's because lots of xda stuff is broadcast to the world by the androidguys and engadget websites. those readers then come over here and decide to try out their luck.

it's getting crazy...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jjwa:
Please be careful with this ****!

I think it's not as simply as you are thinking now. Because the issues only start breaking things when you flash to a new kernel without the bug. The old kernels work fine with a corrupted /system, it's actually the fixed kernels (like K9) that often refuse to boot with issue-affected phone. So if you recommend people to flash to K9 without first fixing their corrupted /system, many users will be staring at a non-booting phone!

Please read the first 2 posts of this topic before you recommend anything to anyone:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=848471

And I suggest changing your recommendation for people to something more like:

Download K8*, K9 and curio's fixer, flash curio's fixer and run it, then flash K9.

(*Or an other not-fixed kernel, just in case you need to flash back to something when you are stuck with a non-booting K9. The bugged kernels can still boot while the /system is corrupted (which is why this bug did not get so much attention before.)

For a nice kernel, maybe you should visit trasig in #project-voodoo >: D.

He made this awesome kernel: http://kernel.1ug.org

He made no XDA topic, but until someone starts doing pretty miracles, this is probably the stuff I will be using for quite a while now :).

(Also, this issue was precisely what was keeping me from using Voodoo all this time I used Doc-ROMs, so yay! Voodoo for me! :))
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
That said, why wait for a descent kernel for JPA/JPO when Hardcore allready updated his one and is working great btw? I found it a descent kernel/project with Hardcore working very hard on it...

Kalpik,

why is it suggested to flash a 2.1 ROM before reinstalling Doc's ROM?

Why not a 2.2 stock Froyo? Thats one thing I never really understood. Why down and then up again?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SamHaLeKe:
U think? If this will continue XDA can loose it's status as developers place?

Perhaps there should be a personal website and forum for people with succesfull ROMS then?

It is as it is, and there is allways action-reaction, evolution etc...

If many developers feel some way, things will change or new forum will rise ;)

i think jjwa is right

i doesn't work for me..stucks before the galaxy S logo (in the first prebootanimation)

but i've always an other kernel on the sdcard ;) i1.1 :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
actually you're right.

stupidly i forgot to mention i ran supercurios RFS fix AFTER i reflashed doc's barebone rom. then rebooted, then flashed the new YA-OK kernel and all ok.

doc, because the kernel is still not compatible you actually should run voodoo's fix kernel first to make sure. then flash the latest kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
I tried an old backup with to corrupt system, a k9 install stuck on boot, restored old kernel, boot ok, falsh rom on top, boot ok, flash k9 , boot ok.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
ah, so the rom replaces and formats the system filesystem anyway with a WIPE on barebone but what about the full versions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
same same...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hensk:
i will wait for solution,not flashing anything now:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
then that's why it works. you should make it clear to everyone that your rom install completely formats SYSTEM therefore fixes the RFS problem. as long as you then immediately flash the latest FIXED kernel (K9, YA-OK #31, etc) then all will be good.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
Exactly as i wrote in 1st post...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] CroSladi:
but why didn't it work for me..i was on v8.4 RAW beta and then i installed the ROM and didn't reboot but installed the k9 hardcore kernel..but it didn't boot :S
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Driekes:
Unfortunately that doesn't seem to work for me. I have tried k-9, doesn't work. I reinstalled k-8, the phone boots. I flashed a fresh rom on top, immediately flash k-9, doesn't boot. Flashing back to k-8, it boots... I don't know what I am doing wrong, but somewhere it goes wrong. All the flashing is done through CWM... Should I maybe restart it in between somewhere? Phone and/or recovery?

Edit: Or could it be that there is more damage done than only /system?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nofam:
Hoping you good folks here can help me - my SGS came with Eclair JH1, which I decided to update to Doc's Froyo ADJP5. I backed up prior to the change with CWM, and the update appeared to go fine.

I soon discovered that I couldn't receive calls however (very quick force close error, followed by call disconnection), yet I could make calls and send/receive sms perfectly.

I then discovered my IMEI had changed (there was still an IMEI, just not my one!), so I restored nv_data.bin from my /efs backup on the external SD card.

Now when I boot I have no phone/sms/3g connectivity at all (IMEI, Baseband version etc all show 'Unknown'), and when I try to manually change the APN setting etc in Settings==>Wireless and networks==>Mobile networks I get:

Insert SIM card to access network services.

The SIM card is in there of course.

I think the issue is to do with the nv_data.bin - looking at this with Root Explorer shows it's size as 0, yet in my /efs backup it's around 2Mb.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tkalli:
Followed Doc's Post.

Reinstalled XWJPA: V 7.6.2 with no wipe, no reboot.

Flashed speedmod-kernel-k9-300hz-CWM.zip

Rebooted.

Setup WiFi, etc.

Installed Titanium Backup.

Installed all apps and data.

Everything seems fine.

But I wasn't having any problems to begin with.

Good learning lesson.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Metalkill:
Just what I had to do, if some is in the same situation..

I backed up all data with CWM (had docs 8.0.1) installed.. wiped all data and cache, Flashed K9, and restored all via CWM.. that of course led me to the awesome logo hang up :P

So i just wiped all data and cache again, flashed with docs 8.0.1, reboot, all fine. Flashed K9, and enabled tweaks, booted all fine.. went into CWM, wiped all data and cache again, and restored my old data, rebooted and all works fine..

had to flash with JPP modem tho :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] achong20:
what worked for me:

install the doc barebone wipe rom through cwm

use odin to flash the latest zenkinz fixed 31 kernal

boot up and good to go

what didn't work for me:

flash the supercurio fixer kernal, here it said 'step1'.. i had waited 10 minutes for 'step2' but it didn't come so i guess it failed.

flashed zenkinz fixed 31 kernal

phone hanged onto the bootscreen so i assumed it failed.. i thus then proceded to what worked for me, noted above.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jetpackjeff:
zenkinz fix 31 kernal is not compatible with 8.0.1 as it is based on JP5 which is not currently supported
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] achong20:
Yes just to clarify to others, I am using the 0.1 Barebone Rom [not 8.0.1] which works with zenkinz/already comes with zenkinz
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chanw4:
Actually, I notice Doc's ROM always wipe /system and if you installed any system apps, you need to install them again since Doc's ROM always remove them. Thats why people keep mentioning the lack of system apps after new ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kalpik:
This is the correct way to flash:

1. Download K9 CWM file, put it in your sdcard, also put Doc's ROM.

2. Boot into recovery.

3. Flash the K9 kernel, DO NOT REBOOT.

4. Go to Advanced ULK options -> reboot into recovery.

5. Now choose mounts and storage -> Format system

6. Now flash Doc's ROM, and immediately after, flash K9 CWM zip AGAIN! (Without a reboot in between)

7. Select reboot after flashing K9 CWM zip. Now if you had a lagfix applied before, you will get a prompt about change in config. Just select "remove new config" here.

8. DO NOT FLASH any bugged kernel after this, or you will have to repeat this process.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kalpik:
Not the correct way Doc, use the method I posted above..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tkalli:
As Doc posted,

I Reinstalled XWJPA: V 7.6.2 with no wipe, no reboot.

Flashed speedmod-kernel-k9-300hz-CWM.zip

Rebooted.

Do you suggest I redo it following these steps?

I have noticed when doing flashes, the /system is formatted.
​
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chanw4:
I think the issue is blown out of proportion. It is more like a bug of incompatibility between ULF and non-ULF kernel. Nothing indicating /system is corrupted so far. And by using the word corruption, people panic and flash the new kernel without a proper upgrade method which result a unbootable phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
Hi Doc/Kalpik

Once again thank you for your great work.

Just wanted to ask if flashing some other modem would improve battery life (when I switched to v8.0.1. my battery life got worse). I'm not expert, and don't know if changing modem would improve b. life (I'm not having problems with sound like some people)... Also, I'm using zenkinz .31 because I always had best results with his kernel, but if someone have some suggestions...?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tkalli:
Most likely, it has.

I had no problems with my phone.

Most probably did not.

For me, it is a learning experience.

I am not a noob when it comes to phones, having started with

the Motorola v3, various Motorola p2k and p5k phones and

Windows Mobile.

But, I am a noob when it comes to android.

Just trying to learn all I can.

Will also probably flash whatever Doc releases tomorrow.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kalpik:
The problem with Doc's instructions is that you are flashing the ROM from a buggy kernel.. So even though /system is formatted during ROM installation, it is STILL mounted with the wrong mount options.. Hence you NEED to be on the correct kernel before flashing the ROM.. This is where my instructions come in :)
