Please find below an update.zip containing a stock DI01 system with root and busybox. Stick it somewhere on your sdcard and flash with clockwork recovery. Now you can bring your phone back to stock without having to use Odin.
The system update will NOT flash your radio. I've replaced the radio attachment, it should work now.
This update does not remove any bloatware. It should leave you at a complete stock DI01 system with root and busybox. It will completely reformat /system, so it will work regardless of changes you may have made to your phone.
I've also attached a few apps built from aosp with a few mods. Included are the DeskClock, Gallery3D, Mms and Music apps. They will REPLACE your existing versions so back sure you have a backup in case blah blah.. The Music app is forked from Eliot Stocker's music mod (CM), and the Gallery3D app is forked from code aurora forum. DeskClock and Mms apps are forked from aosp with a few slight mods (black background in mms,etc).
DO NOT put this on your sdcard as /sdcard/update.zip. That's where clockworkmod lives.
stock DI01 system update
Thanks man working on flashing it now!

This meant to be flashed on a completely stock system. If you have trouble with missing apps or signatures, then flash back to stock using the odin file here.
This update will NOT flash your radio. If you applied the previous fix I posted that included the radio update, you will need to put a stock DH12 build.prop back into /system or the attached update will FAIL.

EDIT: also attached is the radio update for those who may need it.

i think the radio update you attached has something wrong with it.
so where do we save it? also is this zip already rooted? or will I lose root access?

Doesn't matter, just use the "choose zip file" option in CWM recovery. Original post says it has root and busy box so I'm sure you're safe.
I'm having errors trying to get clockworkrecovery to work

Did you have it working before? Like were you able to make and restore backups?
mine just gets stuck after it reboots into recovery and says it's installing the update but then nothing happens.

Seems like flashing /system might be a good idea for anyone unsure of the status of their renames/deletes regarding the bloatware; after that, seems like it'd be easier to hit the OTA without any worries.
Apologize for being dense and perpetutating "confusion" as you describe in an earlier post, BUT the Q: If I (being rooted and having removed bloatware, etc.) installed your patch from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789823, is it at all beneficial to revert back to stock and install the zip from this thread? Thanks.
Thank you.
I restored all the removed apps, installed the updates, and after reboot removed the crapware again.
Worked perfectly.
question about included apps
I was very excited to see the changed desk clock and music app. So I installed them, and all the of them worked except the desk clock. I tried it again, and still the same samsung desk clock. Is there another way to install that? I really want the old style desk clock. Thanks!
Just pull the deskclock.apk from the zip and put it in /system/app

Those of you who need to restore the stock image, but don't want to do it using Odin, there is a stock Nandroid image available here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789868. I flashed that with Rom Manager and then installed the update file, also with Rom Manager, in the op of this thread.
Does this update fix the signal loss notification?
Couldn't tell you, I haven't experienced it.

Changed? What's different?
I ran the update to DI01 and everything it working well. I see the note that in order to upgrade the radio I must have the DH12 buildprop file... Can I still do the radio upgrade if I have already updated to DI01?
Hi all, have a question for ya.
I'd like to know how I go about returning the system font back to stock. I installed a theme over KaosFroyo that I really like (BlackMod from the Heroc forum, it's friggen sweet) but the theme changes the font to something taller and thinner, which is a little more difficult to read on our tiny screens.
So, can anyone throw me a bone here?
Thanks,
SSJ

Type Fresh is what you need sir. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6103587
I'm using it to run a cool looking font called SF Gothican on my Droid, but have previously used this app on the Eris as well. Really easy to use. Just download it from the Market (it's free - and you will also need AndExplorer, free as well), open, give Root access, back up fonts, put a ".ttf" file of your choice on your SD card in the folder named Fonts and then tap on the DroidSans and DroidSans-Bold fonts in the app, it will allow AndExplorer to browse your Font folder, and just pick the one you want. Hit your soft Menu key and choose apply fonts, reboot, and enjoy. Hope this helps...
This didn't work YET, however I don't think I can get the fonts back to stock until I wipe and ROM again, backup the stock fonts, then flash the theme and replace the fonts with stock. I'll update you and let you know if that works.
Thanks!
UPDATE: Got it. Wiped and reflashed, backed up the stock fonts, flashed the theme, restored the stock fonts from backup. Thanks a lot, dude!
I've spent a lot of time on here the last 2 weeks reading as much as possible about flashing. I finally took the plunge and flashed Axura 2.2.6 onto my Vibrant, and I love it.
Now, I am intrigued by the new Bionix-V ROM out, but I am not sure I understand everything I need to do if I want to change ROMs. Also, I have a few questions I can't seem to get a grasp on.
1. Before flashing or anything, I rooted with Ryan's OCLF. When I flashed with Axura, did that install and enable voodoo on my phone? Did it override OCLF? I know you are not supposed to be running both.
2. I cannot figure out this kernel thing. Do I just let the ROMs handle them, or am I supposed to be updating on my own?
3. I don't do anything with the modem (e.g., KA7), correct? As I understand it, the ROMs are based off of this.
4. I have read some stuff recently about how Titanium Backup has caused some issues. Should it not be used when going from ROM to ROM?
5. I have read some stuff recently about the battery and cycling it. Should this be done if I want to change ROMs?
Thanks in advance.

ok..
1. I dont know if Axura had Voodoo....but if you flash a custom ROM (weather its Axura, Bionix-V..etc..) it'll always be rooted
2. Some folks (like me) prefer going back to stock 2.1 with Odin...then flashing their new custom ROM...so they dont run into ghost files and kernel issues...but its not needed....some times you can go from ROM to ROM
3. the KA7 is the newest leak from Samsung for our phones....when a custom ROM is made...it is made from the newest leak...which now is KA7..this way the ROMs stay up to date
4. Titanium Backup is a great tool...almost a must use tool if you're going from ROM to ROM....Titanium Backup Pro is a lot more speedier and has more features that the free version...but the free one is also good
5. I personally make sure my batt is fully charged and is plugged in while i'm flashing so it reduces the time i have to re-condition...you should read a little bit more on that
1. Before flashing or anything, I rooted with Ryan's OCLF. When I flashed with Axura, did that install and enable voodoo on my phone? Did it override OCLF? I know you are not supposed to be running both.
It sounds like you just rooted with OCLF, no issue there. OCLF lag fix converts your file system to EXT2, voodoo is EXT4. If you heard Linda (lady's voice) at first bootup, your system is EXT4 via voodoo. You can download voodoo toggle from the market to verify it is working, and to disable (which you would do if you flash something that is NOT voodoo). Also, it is not possible to run both.... file system is one or the other. EXT4 is better (even though EXT2 will show a higher quad score).
2. I cannot figure out this kernel thing. Do I just let the ROMs handle them, or am I supposed to be updating on my own?
The ROM will handle this. You only need to flash another one if you really want to..
3. I don't do anything with the modem (e.g., KA7), correct? As I understand it, the ROMs are based off of this.
The ROM will handle this. You only need to flash another one if you really want to, ie, you have better signal with one vs the one included in your rom.
4. I have read some stuff recently about how Titanium Backup has caused some issues. Should it not be used when going from ROM to ROM?
Ignorance causes issues, not Titanium Backup. Check the noob guide in my signature to learn how to use it properly.
5. I have read some stuff recently about the battery and cycling it. Should this be done if I want to change ROMs?
Always. Also in the noob guide.
Thanks
Thanks. You guys rock.
Quick question/comment. When I used OCLF, I know that I rooted and I also ran the lagfix, because my quadrant score went up drastically. Not sure if this matters.
I went into Astro, and I have a folder for voodoo with log files in it, so this means I must have voodoo, right?
I downloaded the voodoo toggle, but I don't see it anywhere on my phone. Does it only show as a setting somewhere?
Voodoo toggle = Reboot Button (no clue why the dev did this). App works great though.
Hi guys. I was wondering a few things. When you theme your phone successfuly, Im under the asumption that if you re-theme it with another them it goes right on top of it correct? How do you remove a theme and is it possible to do that? Or if there are different thems out there you like, how do you go about switching them out? Just keep putting them on top of eachother? Any advice would be great. Thanks guys.

I appreciate the link. But all its showing me is how to actually create a theme. I cant find where the answers to my questions are for the person that just installs the themes but doesnt make them?
Depending on what version of software you are running (1.26, 1.57, 1.83 ATT) I think the best method to completely re-theme is to use a program like Titanium Backup * Root, free version from the market, to back up your apps and data. SBF flash the proper version of deodexed files for your current software version to completely eradicate the current theme. After that apply your new theme and then re-install Titanium Backup to restore your apps and data.
You will most likely need to use gingerbreak to regain root after flashing the SBF. Since this will, most often, result in a clean wipe of your internal and external SD card, make sure to back them both up to your computer before flashing the SBF and proceeding. That way you can just put anything back onto the internal or external memory that isn't put back by titanium.
Putting one theme on top of another really won't hurt anything most of the time, but if the new theme doesn't use all of the same files as the previous theme did then you will end up with items from the old version that weren't replaced.

You can pull fresh copies of everything that the themes change (framework-res.apk, services.jar, blur-res.apk, are the main ones) and make a CWM update with those in it. Then you can install a theme, and in order to uninstall it all you need to do is go into CWM and use the backup update.zip.
To switch themes, I just keep all themes I have downloaded in a folder called THEMES on my phone. I just boot into CWM and use the backup .zip I made, then I install the new theme .zip and reboot.
If your talking about Gingerblur/Grey blur I think a SBF flash would be your best way to uninstall.
Thanks for the tip guys. I actually had GingerBlur installed before but wasnt all that fond of it. I went ahead and flashed the sbf of 1.8.3 back. Now I have the HoneyGlow theme installed and actually I like it a lot. I was just wondering what its like re-flashing themes over top of themes. I have Tansfers (I think thats the name) Recovery already installed with root access. I got the files already saved on the computer, but thats good advice to put the updates in folders on the phone and do it that way.
Yes, now On im gonna take that external SD card out when I flash. I also tried using Titanium and having a hard time with understanding how it works fully lol.

yes you can flash new themes on top of old ones. They just replace various framework files. all themes modifies the same set of framework files pretty much. so when you flash on top, it overwrites the current one with the new one, that's it. the important thing to remember is to flash a theme meant for your rom because framework files can change from rom to rom, so you may get bootloops (soft bricks) if you flash incompatible frameworks.
I downloaded matted blue theme earlier today and installed. I didn't like it. So after that I downloaded and installed the steel blue theme which I don't even know if that one is working right because the icons aren't different. Anyways I downloaded and installed the theme and didn't uninstall the matted blue theme because I wasn't sure how to.....now my Gmail wont load it keeps force closing and for some reason there is 2 text message apps that neither can't be uninstalled and I am getting double the texts at once....does anyone have any ideas to help please. I tried going into the removable drive via USB to computer and just deleting the folder that in boot menu I tried to update.zip and it said it was looking for drive e: and couldn't find anything....I am lost and fairly annoyed please help.
Deders *****es!!!!!!!
Why dont you reflash a SBF?
Use the un-theme CWM (found in the apps theme forum) zip. Or the deodexed CWM zip (found in the Dev forum). Some themes, such as MattedBlues, include themed apps, which won't be overwritten if the new theme doesn't include them. A tip to theme users: always check whats included inside the zip and backup your files. I personally did a complete backup after deodexing and before installing any themes so I'll never have to reflash an sbf.
I hate to say this but I don't know how to do that
Did a back up earlier today and am running it now well see what happens
im running back up now, can I ask you how to do that?
I hate to say this but even if you can swim you should first test the water.
I assume you know how to use the CWM zips since you've already flashed themes. I also assume you are deodexed since those themes applied correctly.
The deodex zip is the same as GladiAtrix or GingerBlur only minus the themes, they both convert an odex system to a deodex system.
Flashing the deodexed CWM will return you to a "fresh" system. The un-theme CWM is the same thing but it only resores the files themers go after. I would first try the un-theme CWM as the full deodex CWM may cause a few easily recoverable issues, such as unroot.
So my suggestion is flash this CWM first to return you to "stock". Then flash the theme of your choosing.
Good luck.
Hey thank you so much I did a restore, for a lil bit there I wasn't able to get into the boot loader. I appreciate it alot though I prolly will use that theme unloader quite a bit
ouch dude this was A VERY EASY FIX... all you had to do was go to manage apps click on gmail and clear data that fixes gmail. then just use titanium backup and uninstall one of the messaging apps(i specifically uninstalled "messaging 2.2.1")...
P.S. Nottach maybe you can add this bit of info in your post for the theme
Thnx a lot that was a huge help. I just got done backing everything up with TB....that really is a awesome app. And for the thread post idea thank you twice sir. May I ask what u replaced your messaging app. With ? And you didn't cause any instability in ur system hy deleting that message 2.2.1.? Since I'm guessing you removed the one that came with the rom. Thnx again.
Deders *****es!!!!!!!
I've had no preblems or instability issues since you're still left with a messaging app
Oh, well since I did a restore on my phone I have only the one message app. 2.2.1. Crazy stuff for real
Deders *****es!!!!!!!
So to clarify, the un theme cwm will work with the 2.1.1 ?
