I was wondering if someone could tell me what I need to do to use a gingerbread theme on my fascinate. I don't fully understand the potential dangers of flashing a dj05 theme over a dl09 rom. I got the OTA dl09 but then flashed Blackhole 3.0 rom...so yeah I'm not really sure if that matters, but I would appreciate any help! Thanks guys.
You can flash the dj05 themefrom nitsuj/retrokid, but you have to immediately flash the dl09 theme fix. Other wise, your phone will not boot. Not sure exactly why, but something with an option changed from dj05 to dl09.

..... it can be found here.
When you say flash the theme fix immediately after, do you mean I have to set up a que in rom manager or...yeah i dunno what else. Usually when I flash a rom the phone reboots itself instead of returning to the CWM recovery screen.

Instead of booting into recovery from ROM Manager, turn the phone off. Then hold both volume buttons and the power button until the Samsung logo shows up. Release the keys. This will bring you to the stock recovery. Select install update.zip to get into CWM. Flash the theme first. After the theme is flashed, you'll still be in CWM. Flash the theme fix. You're done.

Then you are using rom manager, I suggest doing it manually, by putting the theme on your sd card and also the theme fix, its very easy to do,
Just apply sd card:update zip
Then select install zip from sd, then find the zip, flash the theme, then flash the theme fix, then go back and reboot system.
One other thing that helps me is fixing permissions after a flash anything. It is also an option in rom manager

Hey you rock for responding. One last question: Will this be compatible with the ROM i'm running and do you ever wipe data/cache before flashing a theme?

Yes, when you select the theme, you add it after.

No need to. Just flash.
So even though the link for the theme fix is in the super clean v0.4 thread, it will work for blackhole 3.0? Sorry to be redundant
yes it will work for any dl09 rom *when a dj05 theme is applied* but flash the fix AFTER the theme
Worked great! thanks guys

Hi everyone, I decided to finally root and flash to axura today. I saw the one click vibrant root link today and did that one successfully. I did some searching and ended up with Austiclees instructional video.
My phone is currently rooted and after downloading Axura 2.0.6. I loaded it onto my internal sd. I downloaded the newest clockwork and when i click install from sd card it seems to be working. However, the screen just goes to android system recovery and I'm stuck having to choose between reboot now or reinstall packages. I'm very frustrated right now and was wondering how to get Axura to actually install..
BTW I did not root from one click lag fix.. I hope thats not the problem.. Any help would be appreciated PLEASE!!!
I just flashed onyx on my vibrant like a day ago.
When you have the rom on your phone you go to rom manager install clockwork i cant remember if you need to restart... after that you click reboot into recovery ...
wait for the prompt to come up and choose to reinstall packages the phone will reboot and open another prompt (you may have to repeat this step if you didn't get into clockwork recovery just click reinstall again.)
Once you are at clockwork recovery you choose install from sdcard and navigate to your rom.

The way you rooted is not an issue.
Click reinstall packages that should take you into cw recovery. Sometimes you have to click twice. Once in Cw recovery scroll down to install zip from sd card, then click choose zip from sd card. After that click on your chosen rom, let it do it's thing and when it brings you back to Cw screen click reboot now. Then enjoy your new Rom.
thanks guys... i figured it out... for anyone with the same problem, I just clicked reinstall packages twice; which put me into clockwork recovery. And for anyone deciding if they want to root and flash or not, let me just say axura's rom on the vibrant is undescribably wonderful. I love not having to reboot when I go to gallery, wifi problems are non existant, as for gps, I haven't tried yet but will be most likely flawless.
thanks ironlood and icandy...
sigh, why didnt i do this before -_-
No prob .. I was actually thinking about flashing Axura in a week or so ... just watcheda video that showed absolutely no lag

For me and my setup, Axura has been the best, and I tried most. I don't think you even need Voodoo lag fix kernel, I just could not resist. Stick with plain Aura 2.2 for now. It's smooth like butter.

Yeah I have read a few guides on Odin but the program itself is still hard for me to understand.
There needs to be a wiki or something that has a entire glossery for the program's terms.

Hey Everyone, I thought I'd share how I got 2.2 working on DL05 Fascinate.
I had voodoo5 installed, running cwred
1.) You need to download the rom, and the new CWR
2.) Disable Voodoo5 in Red CW and then flash the new CW GREEN, after you do that reboot your phone, let it disable voodoo it will take time (5 min) on my side.
Soon as it boots up to the fascinate, pull the battery, and reboot into the new CW GREEN.
4.) Flash new Rom, and then wipre date and cache! and done! It takes awhile to boot, I thought mine froze on the Verizon screen for like 4 min.
I have flash, and HID!
Please Do not hold me responsiblity if you brick your phone!
This is just personal experience if you have any questions please let me know, I hope i've helped you!
They've added some stuff, which of course we all wanted froyo. But they have a new app called media hub, for movies, tv shoes, and such. Also you can turn on and off auto rotation, and your mobile data from the drop shade! also you can now sync with yahoo, and hotmail. all share and has google search as your auto, no more bing!
Thanks! There was something about CWR not working on this build, is that still the case? And I heard (from a file apparently posted by Adrynalyne) that SMS and MMS don't work, is there anything else that's not working? Really tempted to flash for the HID so I can use my mini bluetooth keyboard. I don't use SMS anyway (only Google Voice).
Edit: Oh, kaos said in that thread that this isn't the ROM that was on IRC. Cool!
Also, the new dropdown thingies sound awesome, I've been wanting those two forever. And wow, no bing, really? That's really tempting then.
Edit 2: Where'd you get the new CWR?
There is a new CW, floating around somewhere SMS and MMS work great, Also found out you can change your font from the settings menu!
I had a buddy give me the link, hold on
New CWM

So if your just running a regular rom, flash through GREEN Clock work, wipe date and cache, and your ready to rock n roll sir!
I'm running blackhole 3 with a nonvoodoo kernel. I'm using standard CW recovery, I don't know much about these green/red variants.

Download the new Clock Work above just in case, flash it. reboot your phone back into clockwork, install foyo, then do a data and cache, RED was only for voodoo
Ok thanks, I'm not interested in using voodoo
Yeah, so it should be a easy process for you
If you aren't running voodoo, just boot into whichever CWM you are using and flash the rom.
I was running VooDoo, so I did the following:
Boot to Red CWM
Disable lagfix
Install Green CWM through Odin
Boot to Green CWM, wipe, flash DL30_leak.zip
I just flash CWM Green with the new zip file. easier to do it that way.
Ugh my phone is unable to mount as mass storage and its driving me nuts... Just says its a cd drive despite multiple reboots. Anyone know of a fix yet?
Edit: Hmm made it ask every time I connect and that actually worked for mounting so if anyone has this problem, try that.
Turn the USB into DEBUG Mode, should get you rocking

i believe if you dont flash the recovery either before or at the same time as dl30 you cant go back and flash it either...im not 100% on that though
I figured it out. You have to do DL30 first then New CWMR. Thanks
Oh, that's good to know, thanks Syn
Does anyone have a working link to the OLD Fascinate CWM .tar? The ones in topic here about is aren't working at all, they either give 404 or say that the poster's links are too busy and were disabled.

I flashed the New CWMR then DL30, I can get into CWMR with no problem.
I wish the new version did show a different version number though.
Both show the same, making it a bit confusing..

Just to clear up any confusion, the "new" CWM is also green, so don't think that the "red" CWM is the new one. The red one is just for voodoo kernels, and the last time I checked, neither the leaked DL30 stock build nor the Super Clean DL30 build supports voodoo, which means you actually need the CWM posted here: http://kaessa.com/files/froyo/DL30-cwm.zip
All of the above is true.
Be careful using that recovery, since it still uses koush's (BROKEN ASS) recovery.
I will try to put together a usable package tonight that uses the red cwm instead. That was a mear proof of concept test, not really meant for distribution.
oops, I totally left this part out but my cwm works perfect still, I never installed the new cwm package, I will now though.
I installed the new CWM first then the DL30 rom - this sent me to the TwLauncher force close loop of death. Reinstalled ROM 1st then new CWM and I'm now rocking 2.2 ...
"You know what the problem is with you, son, all of your brains are in your head and not in your feet."
hmm...I'm scared to even touch mine. lol. Followed one of adrynalyne earlier guides where you use odin to much cwmrecovery.tar and then flash clockwork mod in Rom Manager (can't seem to find it now). Rom manager says version 2.5.1.0 and I can still get into cwm.
I disabled voodoo, installed the new cwm, wiped cache/system reset, installed the super clean .7 with no problems at all.
I also rebooted after the voodoo disable and after I flashed the new cwm.
I can't wait for voodoo, the lag is driving me insane!
RubikS 1.7 - Voodoo 5 w/ Voodoo Sound!!
I can confirm that flashing the recovery after installing DL30 didn't work through Recovery mode. I attempted it twice to no avail. I'll retest with the new Red CWM when it's released.
ok. first off.
I just switched from dj05 voodoo with a sc rom, to sc2.3 voodoo eb01.
I made a back up in rom manager of dj05, and a tibu back up, but tibu, for some reason, didn't save to my sd. so I tried to go back to the dj05 back up, but it wouldn't boot. just got stuck on the samsung screen.
so I pushed dj05 back, tried to restore the back up, and still got stuck on the samsung screen. any ideas how to get this back?
ok. next. on sc2.3 eb01, I had neongt theme, decided I wanted revolution, so I downloaded revolution. put on sd, flashed, and boot looped. flashed neon gt again, it booted, and now I have both themes. dialer/menus from revolution, drop down from neon, etc. how would I go about getting just revolution?
lol ok next. so I kinda don't like how things are going with my current setup. would you recommend going with aosp v.7? and if so, would I push the eb01 voodoo kernel through odin then flash the rom through cwm?
thanks in advance for any help!

Won't boot back to dj05 because you probably didn't do an odin complete back to djo5. I'm betting you just tried flashing the rom ontop of your eb01 modem.
Your theme/rom issues are stemming from a lack of wiping data more then likely before flashing over the new rom/themes.
If you're running voodoo, try super clean 2.4 w/ voodoo...really nice and fast.

I've pushed dj05 back via odin and still wouldn't boot.
what all do i need to wipe for different themes? I've wiped dalvik/data/battery/the other one under data that I don't remember right now.
do you have links for voodoo kernel and sc2.4? and steps? like push voodoo with odin and flash sc2.4 through cwm? and what do I wipe?
another problem I forgot about- i cant use tibu on sc2.3 cuz of a busy box problem, and busy box from market won't work.

To be honest, I've never used a backup software. I manually copy and paste. any apps I download to a file on my computer then transfer them back over.
Follow these steps though.
1. Charge the battery till it reads 100%
2. Place Super Clean voodoo 2.4 on your SD card on your phone and enter download mode.
3. Plug in phone to odin and using PDA flash over eb01 modem
4. Go into CWM wipe data twice/bat statistics and cache...then select locate super clean 2.4 w/ voodoo and install and enjoy.
If you already have the eb01 modem set up, just download the sc 2.4 w/ voodoo and place it on your sd card and reboot into cwm. flash data at least twice and cache on a full charge. Then locate the zip file and extract/load via cwm. Should be good.
ok thanks. once there, should everything be wiped enough to be able to flash revolution theme on?

If you're going to flash a theme over sc 2.4, I'd still wipe data twice and cache...that's just me though. It's always best to start fresh you know?

I've never really pursued anything that way. I run on flashed phones so there's alot more chances for things to get f'd up so I've always done things the extra cautious way unfortunately. That way if I get a corrupted sd card error or anything along the lines, I'm secured. Plus I keep a change log for prl and modem settings.
EDIT: Ok so I flashed it back to 2.1 stock, i'm gonna try flashing Bionix again, is there something I should do before flashing it? Am I in the wrong version or something? Help!
Ok so here's the situation:
I was running Axura 2.0.3 or something and things were ok, but I wanted to flash to something better, so I downloaded the Bionix Frost 2.2.1 ROM and flashed it. It didn't have any of my contacts or SMS so I went to flash it back to my last backup, which was 12/15/10, and Axura. I go to Clockwork Mod, and run the nandroid backup and now when my phone boots up, it goes through the screens, and freezes on the Galaxy S screen, then everything turns black and when I touch the screen, all the bottom buttons light up, but nothing happens, and the only way to get that to turn off is to pull the battery.
Is there any way I can fix this? I have Odin, but i'm not sure exactly what to do here.
flash a kernel. nandroid does not restores kernel.

First things first, calm down.
This is not hard, but it can seem that way if you freak.
Did you read the guides? Did you download rom manager, flash cwr, go to stock recovery and reinstall packages (twice maybe)?
i really think it's about flashing a kernel.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So what kernel do I need? I'm back at full 2.1 stock, and I want to get back to my Axura 12/15/10 nandroid, do I need a kernel?
That axura is 2.2 right? So any 2.2 kernels should be fine,
flash nandroid then before rebooting flash kernel.
In the phone information it says my Kernel is 2.6.29? It says firmware version is 2.1update 1.
If I just want to flash to Bionix, do I need to update a kernel or can I just go straight ahead and do that?
yes. you don't need to flash a kernel when you flash bionix.
You only need to flash a kernel when you are restoring a nandroid backup.
Thanks, you helped a lot.
One last question: how do I move my contacts and SMS over? Whenever I flash a new ROM I seem to lose it.
