[Q] Issues after trying to apply Voodoo Lag Fix.. HELP! - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried do install the latest Voodoo lag fix and am now stuck on the Vibrant logo screen.
I went into recovery mode, chose to apply the package, then when it restarted just sits at the white Vibrant logo.
I'm still able to get back into recovery mode and trying to reapply the lag fix results in the same

Odin. That is all I m going to say.

yes, i know exactly whats happening...i think
when you apply the voodoo, listen for linda saying she's going to apply extension for optimize 4, then step 1. this process takes about 5 minutes and it will sit on the white vibrant screen for what seems forever. just hang tight and it'll reboot
however, since you stopped the process in the middle, you might need to ODIN to stock. but try reapplying the voodoo lagfix. i hope it works for

this is all in the voodoo thread. Its been happening to people since day one with voodoo. I got voodoo to work once, and it was nice, but I like the convenience of z4mod. Same deal, but instead of being activated when you install the kernel it modifies your kernel so it supports ext 2 3 or 4 then allows you to change file systems by flashing a zip. And the fact that z4mod can change dbdata and cache as well is nice too.

CWM issues on FroYo...

No matter which FroYo Release I try, "Fix-permissions" doesnt seem to work properly. Regardless of what i try, it only fixes permissions for the CWM app itself. So its shows two lines of text for CWM, and its done. Any one know why this is happening?
Ps- I've tried completely un installing CWM and deleting its folders and everything associated with it but to no avail. I'm out of ideas...

I take it that everyones ClockWork's "Fix-Permissions" works perfectly fine? Any input would be nice. THanks
You need to get into the actual clockwork recovery and fix perm there. So, open ROM manager, select reboot into recovery, select re-install packages, clockwork recovery should boot up, then goto advance options at the bottom of the list and select, then you should see the fix perm option about half way down the list, select it and your done.
I have the same problem. I'm thinking it's to do with CWM needing to be updated for the vibrant. Since there is no current 2.2 official/supported release it will not be updated as of yet. I haven't contacted koush(dev), but I'm sure he knows.
Even if you do go directly into CWR you can select it, but it doesn't seem to scroll the script...
I am using the stock Froyo eugene posted and I am not having any problems with ROM manager or CWR. I have done two backups with ROM man and wiped cache, dalvik cache, and fix permissions in CWR and it worked. I even got the fix permissions log on my SD card.
This must be it, because same thing happens if i try from the recovery. Is there anyone that can get fix-permissions to actually run the entire script? Would be nice to know if its a select few, everyone, or just us two

Odin froze on EC01 modem flash.. what now?

I installed the EC01 ROM and sbrisson mod without issue, then went to flash the EC01 modem.bin via Odin 1.7 and it seems to have frozen up. Attached screenshot. What do I do now? I def don't want a brick for a phone.. I have a pallet of bricks outside which are much prettier, and red.
I have the phone sitting here still in DL mode, so the faster the help, the better

Just disconnect restart odin, go back to download mode and reflash, your not gonna hurt anything by starting over.

I know I have seen this same thing posted in the EC01 thread. Is your battery out? Quite a few people have gotten stuck at that point when doing ODIN with the battery in. I believe they have safely closed ODIN, pulled battery, reopened ODIN, connected with battery out, and flashed radio with no problems. I am still searching the thread to verify, so if you want to wait I will keep searching and let you know.
Same thing happened to me on the first modem flash, it seems a little glitchy. I just re-odined and it worked, good luck bro!
yeah they're right..it's the battery being in...was for me anyway...same thing happened..yank the battery, restart odin, re-flash and it should go through fine..takes about 20 seconds to dont get scared...
Thanks everyone. I did just as you recommended and all went well. I'm now on ed01 and loving life.

[Q] [HELP] [WTSR/SMPL] Bricked SGSII by removing Gmaps

Hey guys,
Pretty desperate here, and I've been searching the forums and other pages on the web for a solution, but nothing yet.
I'm afraid I did something pretty stupid. I wanted to update Gmaps, but Play Store gave me the 'not signed correctly, please delete older version' message. So I tried to uninstall the old Gmaps through Settings, but that didn't work.
Than I had this 'brilliant' idea to just hardcore delete Gmaps through Titanium Backup. Well, I did and... BOOM! Black screen, a short boot loop and after that... nothing.
I took out the battery for about 15 minutes and placed it back in, and now I get this weird message saying 'WTSR/SMPL'.
Phone won't start up in Recovery, only Download mode.
Somebody can help me out here?

Flash a stock rom in download mode with Odin, clean slate. Then re-root your phone & you can restore a backup (if you have one).

Thanks for your response so quick, appreciate it.
BTW, are you sure there is no other way? Did you see this WTSR message before?
No probs. No, I've never seen it. But thinking logically; you have no recovery, the phone won't boot normally & you can only get into download mode. You don't really have any other option other than the one I suggested, do you ?

Not sure. The weird thing is: when I press the home button repeatedly, the screen starts flickering from white to black and back. So there's still something alive, don't you think?

Intermittent black and white lines on screen

Hey guys.....
A friend of mine gave a Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) , but I have to fix it before use it... what's going on it.... Well... If I turn it on, it shows some intermittent black and white lines on the screen, as you can see

}
but, when I enter in Odin mode, the screen is ok
So, I assumed there is no hardware issue in this mobile.... so, i thought it could be just a ROM error or something alike.... so, I downloaded KIES and Odin ((3.07, 3.09 and 3.10)).... I started on Odin.... I tried to flash the stock ROM on it, but I went to the error missing PIT partition.... after I read what is a PIT partition, I downloaded only the PIT file and tried to flash it alone and together with the MD5 ROM file..... So, NO.... nothing worked....
So, I went into the KIES and tried to used the all 3 options on Tools Menu .... the first one, doesn't work ((or I don't know what to do...))... the second one works.... asks for the serial number and start the progress bar and everything. But, when it reaches 70% just stops and says there is an error
.. and the third one doesn't help... at all....
So guys this is it what I already done so far in here and this is what I know what it could be done.... any thoughts or ideas to help me here?
I'm using a windows 8.1 x64....
Thanks very much for any help and assistance here =D
I'm reading something about MSKIP Toolkit and Heimdal.... any of these works in my case?
I'm reading this thread too - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/solved-pit-bricked-dead-problem-gt-t2535367 - but my phone does not reboot.... so, i'm stuck on step 3....
and in here - https://www.androidpit.de/forum/545386/there-is-no-pit-partition-and-re-partition-operation-failed - these guys are facing the same issue as mine....
So, no further ideas to do.... any in your side?
Cheers =D
any thoughts or ideas guys??
any ideas at all guys?

This is currently looping in logcat. Any way to fix except of full reset and a reflas

Suddenly phone got 5-10 fps out of nowhere and not changing back.
Decided to get logcat and see if something interesting came up (this is maybe 40 min after when phone started to be a little more "normal")
It started ok with some warning but soon went to application error and then access denied to files?!
I did not use Instagram(the app crashing) for over 12 hours before.
Now the last picture is running over and over again (same things coming up, like it was looped)
So am I forced to reset and flash from start? Should I be worried about anything?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: it changed to some really worth and (to me) worrying things so a full reset is mandatory when I get home...

It seems your software has been corrupted somehow. Yes, reflashing your stock firmware should fix this.
