THANK YOU!

Indeed, you are abso-FRIGGEN-lutely correct. I can't tell you how many times I've used the search function with no results. Spent an hour reading and reading and reading until I found and answer on page 1,455,325. Simple questions that shouldn't require the reading on an encyclopedia to answer for fear of being flamed for posting a question that may have already been answered.

Here's a stroke of genius. Take the 10 or 25 or 50 most popular questions and post the page links to their answers on the OP. This should significantly reduce the excruciating pain and suffering these uber-riods must endure in answering a question more than once!
[Vibrant Android Development] jdcooper:
Ha Ha, nice one, I "wants" 4.1. Im on a flashing frenzy! I love this phone now! quick question though. I litterally JUST finished flshing V4 and it is the 1st time i've used Voodoo. I heard the voice confirming it on bootup, so is the lagfix applied? Is there anyting else i need to do?
[Vibrant Android Development] Telanis:
Hmm so I screwed that up. But yea, I can't even boot my phone right now, so that won't help at the moment :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Telanis:
Reboot once more before trying to do anything (especially restoring apps with Titanium).
[Vibrant Android Development] Rotwilda:
Great ROM with the OCLF is much faster and smoother.

@MoakedMadness from Vibrant with Obsidian v3
[Vibrant Android Development] jdcooper:
Awesome thanks for the quick reply Telanis, I had just started to restore my apps so i canceled the operation, and started my reboot 1st. Good looking out buddy
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
Odin back to stock and reflash your favorite rom. Don't use voodoo if you don't know how or don't know the consequences and the recovery methods.

You will be fine though. Just Odin back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] Slide1340:
What a stroke of genius!! Why don't you do that for all of us?
[Vibrant Android Development] jdcooper:
Holy S*** bootup was insane fast! This rom is nuts. I feel like i just found my soul-mate
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
The OP is written by someone who is slaving night and day to pump out these amazing roms. I doubt he has the time or patients to read all these petty posts and to constantly update the OP with your "wants." If I had the second or third post of the thread, I would be glad to do this for you, so maybe the next time a new thread is started on a new amazing rom, I'll try to get one of the first posts. Until then, I think everyone should quick acting so incapable and start reading.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrizk07:
You act like taking the 10, 25 or 50 most popular questions is something anyone wants to waste their time with.

Even if this was done the questions would still come. This isn't meant for everyone but sometimes a question was just answered and 2 posts later someone else posts the exact same question.

There are no hard feelings towards anyone, this just gets extremely annoying.

I hope you guys are "searching this thread" and not just searching at the top of this page, that would explain why you don't find anything. Or try different key words.

Ok, now i'm going to help you but just so you know this has been handled many times already as well.

If you guys do not know what you're doing with voodoo GO BACK AND READ AGAIN before you start trying to flash or make any changes ESPECIALLY if you do not know what the consequences will be.

Now, I believe her name is now Millie. She won't be activated twice, she'll need to be deactivated before you hear her activate again.

In order to properly disable voodoo you have to create a file with no extension in your /sdcard/voodoo folder named "disable lagfix"

Then reboot. That's it, on startup you'll hear millie disabling voodoo and going back to rfs. At this point after the phone starts up again you can then go back and reflash.

Telanis,

It sounds like you mixed up the kernel's and soft bricked the phone. You can try flashing the STOCK JK2 kernel to see if it can at least boot you back into the phone. If not you may have to ODIN while in download mode. Using that method will not brick your phone. You'll be back to working in no time.

Hopefully we can all learn from our mistakes.
[Vibrant Android Development] Telanis:
No problem :)

OK, thanks. I thought I did understand voodoo, but the info is pretty scattered. It's really just that I didn't know the voodoo folder for disable-lagfix was "/sdcard/voodoo" and not just "/voodoo"
[Vibrant Android Development] jmartiuk:
quick question

it was brought up in the thread but never answered is the core kernel ok to run with this or is is strictly for the eclair build i am currently running fusion 1.2 with the core and love it my phone took to it perfectly. I would really love to try my first froyo build everything i have ever flashed has been from som, team u guys deff rock. Also real quick do i have to revert back back or can i just flash this over my current fusion rom seeing how it already has the stock kernel and performs a wipe. Well thanks for any input its very much appreciated.

Thanks the fng.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Oh...there are plenty of patients out here! Some of them appear to be terminal at that! :D

You do realize, moonfire711, that I am teasing about the typo? I admire your help in these forums.

I'll send you some Slurpee money when the funds clear PayPal. Keep in mind however that if you ever come to SoCal you will NOT find a Slurpee for a dollar!
[Vibrant Android Development] vapotrini:
Love the ROM, unfortunately the battery life for me isn't all that great. Applying all my freezes and tricks doesn't help much. I'm now at 50% battery after 8 hours use. With pretty much identical usage on Bionix Final, it was taking me an entire 24+ hours to get to 50%.

Can't figure out how people are getting great battery life. Are you guys coming from stock, or other bionix roms? I'm thinking stock. Also, same modem being used or J2?
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Negative. Do not use a Core kernel with Obsidian/Onyx. Core is for 2.1 only. If you want to try 2.2 out, I'd suggest Obsidian without Voodoo. Do some serious reading on Voodoo before trying it out.

If you're not running Voodoo go ahead and flash away. You ARE backed up, yes?
[Vibrant Android Development] jmartiuk:
Thanks yea I never use voodoo just the oclf so can I just flash from this rom and and have it do its thing thanks for your patience. And yes I am completely backed up titanium and a nand back done of my orginal stock rom and my fusion rom lol I have a feeling I'm gonna be coming back to this rom I love it but really wanna try a 2.2
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
I'm glad to see someone put a funny spin on my typo. Running on about 4 hours of sleep. I am kinda surprised I have not been picked apart for other strange things I may have said.

I mostly put the donate link up so that I can justify sending money to team whiskey. We don't have much, so if I can get a little, it makes it so i can give a little. Heck, there is no way I could have afforded this phone, except that I broke my old phone while fighting a wild land fire a few months ago, and my Chief paid most of the cost of the new phone. :D When I learned how hard it was to truly brick this thing, that is when I decided to take the risk of modding. I'm glad I did. It's been fun.
[Vibrant Android Development] Telanis:
Yea I knew everything except that it was the folder under sdcard and not in the root. I tried JFD but of course that didn't work, so I am doing JK2 as you suggest.

Edit: Looks like JK2 is working, though I still have the issue with no free space.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
One thing to keep in mind...if you flash a 2.2 ROM then decide to go back to 2.1, you will need to flash a 2.1 ROM with kernel first before using your nandroid backup. Otherwise you'll be trying to use a 2.1 ROM with a 2.2 kernel. ¡No es bueno! You will brick your phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
In case that doesn't work, here you go. This should get you back to square one.

End All Fix All Solution to Every Question
[Vibrant Android Development] jrizk07:
What's the exact error again? with root explorer right?

Have you tried with astro or any other file manager?
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
I would, after making sure you're backed up fully of course, use Odin to flash back to stock and make sure to check "Re-Partition" in Odin before flashing. This will wipe your internal SD card but I expect it would remedy the situation.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmartiuk:
Lol now I know I'm being a pain but I can just flash this from this rom no need to back step in anyway just boot into recovery and flash the the kernel and everything should switch over from there correct. That's the last question I swear lol : )
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
What does the text in blue refer to?
[Vibrant Android Development] jmartiuk:
Not sure I understand the question what blue text.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
You mean flash Obsidian/Onyx straight from Fusion? No worries on that one. It will wipe the caches and your apps, but if you're backed up it's a simple matter of using Titanium to restore your apps + data. Do NOT restore system data however; it will cause you grief, despair and dismay. Check your apps when you restore...I avoided restoring anything that had "2.1" in the name. Dunno if that was necessary, but seems logical anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] Etrnaly:
All TW ROMs flash the Kernal, so going from Obsidian to Fusion (and vice versa) works fine. Just flash it from CWR. However, do not flash any of the Project Core files since they are Kernal mods. Flashing a Project Core Kernal on Obsidian/Onyx will not work. Also, if you are trying to restore a back up from Rom Manager AKA Nandroid backup, you will need to flash the full ROM first before restoring since a Nandroid restore does not flash the Kernal.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
You know, we have commercials here in Utah that say happy cows come from California. Looks like they are smart too. I didn't have a clue what that guy was running at the moment by referring to it as "this".

Side note: What do you think of this idea? What if I start doing a quick search for someone's answer and reply back to them with the keyword that found the answer they were looking for. Do you think that would help teach people how to search? Or, would it just be a waste of time?

[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
I tried Obsidian V3 and Macnut R12 and concluded that Obsidian has a better battery life in sleep (-0.2-0.5%/hour vs 3-4%/hour) but a bit worse in active usage if you are using voltage control on Macnut (10% vs 7-9%). Also Macnut ROM is smoother and a bit faster due to overclock. Also I love transparent TW launcher in Macnut (or Obsidian V2) more than a dark one here.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
With the long replies I tend to write, I bet this would actually be faster. I've at least got my brown belt in search-fu.
[Vibrant Android Development] Telanis:
No, it's just with downloading/installing apps in general. Lots of people have had this problem, but none of the solutions have worked for me.

That's what I did, but it didn't work. Some of my data is still there, oddly enough. Apparently the problem is with the master boot record having been rewritten by Voodoo. Others have fixed it by reinstalling Voodoo and then disabling it properly, but when I reinstall Voodoo it goes back into the boot loop.

Edit: OK, the 3rd time I flashed stock with repartition checked it worked. I have no idea why it didn't take before. Thanks a ton guys! Too bad you don't have donate links ... but moonfire711, enjoy your Slurpees when paypal clears ;)

If anyone wants to disable VooDoo easily, there is a zip file attached by a nice user on page 300, post 2994 that can be used with Clock Work Recovery and Instructions on the first post.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
Thanks man. It is very much appreciated. I usually check the re-partition box to make sure it's 100% clear. Just don't check it if you are just flashing a kernel or something other than the stock .pit and.tar files. You could really brick your phone if you do.
[Vibrant Android Development] sj_martin:
Is there anyway we can add a bunch of .apk's to the update.zip to get them preinstalled? I have 20 apps that I manually install each time. If i could drag and drop them somewhere in the update.zip that would be awesome if that could work. :D

Interesting idea about teaching search-fu. I would not have the patience for it myself, but if you can get the concept to even a few people...:)
[Vibrant Android Development] bigsquid:
I'll take a search lesson, I've been trying to figure out how to swap the tw calendar for the aosp calendar and but search tons of results that have little or nothing to do with what I'm searching for. I've posted in this and another rom thread and even started one in the themes/apps section and can't even get flamer love.

Show me your wu tang style :)
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
Your's is a unique question. The reason you are not getting answers or even flames is because there are few people who know how to do this and this question has not been asked by anyone else or at least answered by any one else as far as I have read. This switch is very particular to you as there are probably not many people who have done this. So, I will not be much help either as I have not done this nor have I read of anyone else asking about or doing this. However, I have read all 3 or 4 times you have posted this question.

My first hunch would be to replace the apk files in system/app folder with root explorer, and then long press the apk to set the permission to be the same as the other apk's in that folder. However, I think there are some syncing services that might also be required to get it to work for you. Give it a shot and see if it works. If it does, then let us know and tell us how you did it. Some things are just trial and error.

[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
+1 for excellent reference
[Vibrant Android Development] bigsquid:
@moonfire, thanks I have tried what you mentioned but it didn't do anything, wouldn't install the aosp calendar just removed my tw calendar. I just thought my question was so dumb nobody was bothering.

@jrizk, thanks for that I will give it a shot and report back. I didn't know about the com files and hadn't seen that thread before. I was always searching for "replace tw calendar with aosp" or some variant. Anyway, enough hijacking I'll see if this works. Thanks all
[Vibrant Android Development] jrizk07:
only a Jr. by number of posts :D

Hopefully it's what he's looking for, if not bigsquid you could replace the files with the apk's you already have if any and like moonfire suggested it's trial and error. If you don't mind flashing you could always reflash if it gets out of hand.

:cool:

Hey All, I briefly Searched for 3g issues on this thread and found a few. I am running V3 and when i was getting 5.2 +mbps speeds i'm now averaging .03-.08 mbps speeds for the last 3 days..

Is there a confirmation that this has been addressed or even assessed or is it an issue for anyone else at all?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
1st of all, it hasnt been answered here for ONYX so you must have not read either

2nd, if it doesnt apply here...then dont leave a feedback comment unless you're the "feedback moderator"

I know that other people were reporting a similar issue. I don't know what was causing it, but if you have the time, you could always hit the end all fix all link at the bottom of my sig and see if that gets you back to normal after a reflash.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
Hey douche, I didn't give a wrong answer. I simply pointed out that he could search segmented and find his answer. Secondly, when there is no answer, you have to make one. I never said you couldn't get it to work.

Edit: and you kinda proved my point when I remembered it was you who wrote this, "Can i flash segmented battery mod on this? The same one i was using for bionix fusion 1.2?" earlier in this thread and came back with a solution. I commend you for that.

I too was having the same problems. Currently using V4 (before it was pulled). First time checking and it looks like I'm getting normal download speed on 3G now (3775 kbps just now). I was getting only about 500kbps or so previously on Froyo ROMs. The one difference is I ODIN'ed back to stock before flashing V3 on Sunday morning. Maybe that's the key to getting the 3G speed working right?

home screen state not saved on reboot

I'm not sure if this has been addressed or not (searched but found too many hits relating to "home"), but when I reboot my phone, recently added widgets and shortcuts disappear from the home screen and I have to re-add them every time.

This is on the current v3 version. Anyone experiencing similar glitches to this ROM or know what's going wrong?
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
I think it was just a few pages back that someone was mentioning a similar problem. I ran Obsidian V3 for a while and didn't have that issue. Then again, I was using launcher pro.

I would flash back to stock, and then reflash Obsidian... Making sure to wipe of course... Should take care of things...

[Vibrant Android Development] geocepe:
Sorry for the noob queston but i have looked through about 75 pages and cant find the answer. Is this the proper steps to enable OCLF? Also what are the steps needed to disable OCLF to flash a new rom? DO I need to remove EXT2 tools or is Undo OCLF V2+ all you have to do? Thanks for the help.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmartiuk:
Thank u kindly for your speedy responses i do appreciate it and i do read and search forums often i do this day in and day out lol i spend most of my time at the computer hacking away and me being in the remote tech business just gives me plenty more time and reason to sit in front of my computer but sometimes u just cant get that answer ur looking for that makes u feel comfortable. Well anyway once this phone is done charging im gonna give it a shot i have not had to resort to odin yet but im hoping i get to try it out sooner or later just to be sure i know i can use it. Well thank u for all ur time is does mean alot and the reason i was referring to the rom as this was because my op stated what i was running so sorry for any confusion.

Thanks the F.N.G
[Vibrant Android Development] Pedamann:
I cant answer the OCLF not highlighting in green after boot animation correction... I havent seen that error before...

You do not NEED to removed EXT2 or Undo OCLF V2+ to flash a new ROM... Just flash directly over it...

Hi there, here is the zip for the blue segmented batt , enjoy your blue :D

Dont know if you have to disable voodoo before flashing but I would just to be safe, actually I think you do when flashing anything, I disable for everything.
[Vibrant Android Development] geocepe:
Thanks I was worried about flashing over it and bricking my phone. The only part of the quoted message i was talking about in my previous post were the 3 steps he had posted.

Steps:

1. Install Install Ext2 tools

2. Restore Boot Animation

3. OnceClickLagFix V2.2+
[Vibrant Android Development] Ahardin:
I just Odin'd to stock and reinstalled. Previously i had just CWM wipe and reformat and took off voodoo and lagfix. But still producing these slow speeds. And i dont think i'm throttled. Even if it was a throttle it would be higher than this. i'm going to try reflashing stock again just for the sake of doing it.
[Vibrant Android Development] ndeman2003:
Just one thing that i would like to add to that as i had a slight problem when using OCLF, when you initiate the OCLF V2+ it will ask you to set the size that you would like, make sure to leave it at the default, think its 843 or something like that. For some reason when you change it, it hangs up the process. If it freezes on you, just take out battery and try again, please bear in mind that it takes a while to install the OCLF, mine took about 7-10min to complete everything.
[Vibrant Android Development] geocepe:
Thanks for the info. This is my first time installing OCLF.
