Hi, I've just flashed this rom yesterday and I found it perfect. unluckily sometimes on boot it freezes on "void. loading modules" and there's nothing to do to let it go on. The only thing that works is the nand restore if works, otherwise flashing rom again is the only way.
does any one have any idea on how to pass through this problem?
Did you follow the procedure correctly while flashing?
I think not or maybe problem is with sd.
did you create any of the folders in void/settings? what version of void did you flash? any custom kernel applied?
I've installed void-echo, of course I made the correct procedure.. there's one way i think..with custom recovery, right? I've created folders on void/settings, yes.
i don't think the problem is in the sd.. but it could be everything, it is an 8gb class 4 btw
What's the overclock frequency u set?
default of setcpu. 728 i guess
When you flashed it, did you make sure to wipe all the necessary components beforehand? The old settings can cause error since they have conflicting issues with void.
Default is 600 mhz not 728 mhz.
Maybe you.used set on boot...big mistake..
Try reflashing void thru custom recovery..
hope it works..
i mentioned that i've created folders on void/settings, than of course there was a cpu tweak from 600mhz to 729 as the kernel set on default after the folder creation...
when it started to freeze i've tried also to wipe everything before flashing it again, but problem persists..
I had faced the same problem on Void delta, deleted all the folders inside void/settings and reboot the phone and then recreate the folders inside void/settings and reboot. worked for me my be its has something to do with over clocking, not sure.
I set from setcpu 600mhz on boot but frozen again. i'm flashing it again.. it's going to be pretty annoying..
tried also not to install kernel and many other stuffs, only gingerbread luncher and gapps, same thing. frozen again on loading modules. can't handle it like that anymore..
helppppp
Try it without gingerbread theme, I heard it lags and can cause startup problems. Sorry to hear you had so many problems with void, its actually one of my favourites, and I'm sure once you get past the initial problems, you'll love it too.
I already love it, and can't imagine my p500 without it.
I think I made a big progress with my bootfreeze problem, and I'm sure it's not because the gingerbread theme.
I made so many changes of microsds and many other stuffs. I came to the conclusion that the problem appears after have all apps moved to sd. there must be some missing line when the void loads modules that it can't find something anymore. I should check what's the app (or more than one) that once moved cause this bootfreeze, but I'm quite sure this is the key to solve this problem and avoid it to happen again.
in void there is no need to move sd to apps, if u created ext partition and a2sd folder :|
never worked for me :/

In a world of trouble now. been on sd 1.9.0 (initially on 318 official), everything was great for some time, then, after a month or two, phone started acting funny (frequent random reboots, hangs, could not start for hour or two when got into dell logo loop...), so i decided to do factory reset. did it and after that could not install any app or recover any titanium backuped apps. when installing any app, install process will continue endlessly, with progress bar always on start (but not freezed, bar is moving, but there is no progress). same thing with titanium backups - could not make any restore - also it starts, but no progress.
later tried new rom flash (sd 1.9.0), then 1.8.1, then 318, then simplestreak 1.2, then again 1.9.0, all with factory resets - could not fix my problem - could not install or make recovery.
hardware-wise all seems without malfunctions. been thinking that maybe internal sd is defective, made check from engineering menu and all seems ok with it.
got no more remedies, made around 50 reflash attempts today, no luck.
another idea that buggs me: could it be that app folder on internal memory is somehow not writable? what are normal permissions on internal memory folder structure?
looking forhelp - solutions or ideas. do you think that is hardware or software defective?
got some kind of warranty, but i'm not sure that i could enforce it...
Can you install apps normally though the market or sideloaded?
It could be that your backups are bad if you can install other stuff
Need a little clarification. Does your ROM after the flash run OK? If it no longer reboots on its own or hangup, doubt you have a problem with your internal SD.
I would recommend scrapping Titanium, I quit using it and started using MyBackUp Pro and haven't had any issues since when I recover apps.
You could do one of several things...
1)Use the QDL tool to get back to a stock ROM, then flash StreakMod and then StreakDroid 1.9.0 and see what happens.
2)Try replacing the internal SD with a 4GB class 10 which will improve performance and do away with the trouble if that were the problem
3)Use the QDL tool to get back to stock ROM and send it in for warranty if all else fails

No, i can't install via market. When i connect to market, it instantly start to download updates (Gmail, Maps etc.) and, when downloaded, it will start installing, and progress will endlessly be stuck on start...so basically same thing like manual install or Titanium recovery.

Ok, you do understand that if you are allowing the market to install all the updates you had on your phone before, it could take a considerable amount of time, and may seem to get stuck. It doesn't download and install one by one, it begins downloading everything you had in your market account (something I hate about the market), so it may be trying to install 20 or 30 or 40 apps and updating others that are part of Android ALL at the same time. It could easily take an hour if you have a hundred apps or so on your phone.
Just a comment, not sure if you have taken that into consideration.
But I doubt you internal SD is bad, if it were, you wouldn't get as far as you get without some force closes, or maybe not even boot.
Your issue is software related in my opinion. But I could be wrong.

ROM(s) working (relatively) OK. Have some FCs on some ROMs, no frequent hangups and only some reboots. Didn't have any of them for a long time because i was trying to find some solution for apps install because without ability to install smartphone is useless.
I heard some bad things of Tutanium, but i was happy with it so far, and i think that it is not his fault.
1) tried that (318 and 351 stock), and others combinations, and always ended with same problem
2) and 3) if i try to replace internal sd, then i will void my warranty
if anything else fails, i'll try my warranty, but i don't know if i'll succedd, but i'll like it better to fix it on my own, if it is software problem, not hardware
Breaking News!
Interesting turn of events: out of pure despair, i tried to flash Streakdroid 2.0 (Gingerstreak).
Out of blue, i could again install apps! I played a little, and tried to flash SD 1.9, hoping that it would be "fixed" now. But, sadly, it isn't! I still cannot install apps on SD 1.9.0! I flashed SD 2.0 again, and found that on SD 2.0 i CAN again install apps (Titanium also works, although it is basically useless because most of backuped apps and settings don't work on GB).
Here is summary:
- on Froyo builds (318, 351 stock; SimpleStreak 1.2; 1.8.1, 1.9.0 SD) i CANNOT install apps (endless install loop) and restore Titanium backups
- on GB build (SD 2.0) i CAN install apps and restore Titanium backups
This is completely puzzling to me. I though that is probably hardware fault (internal sd or something else), but if on SD 2.0 everything works, and on Froyo builds not, it seems that is some kind of software error?
I suspect on some kind of folder permissions error. Does anybody know right permissions for internal system folder etc.?
Is anyone else having this problem? I follow instructions to a T and still I get various major problems when using any rom. They lockup frequently, I can't play a any games at ALL, causes phone to reboot. I am getting very frustrated I don't know what the problem is. Can anyone help? I've cleared the cache (dalvic and program cache,) done factory wipes, restored to original stock vibrant rom. Absolutely nothing solves the problem..please help.
Sounds like a CPU problem. Try downclocking via SetCPU to 800mhz or lower. Increase voltage a bit with Tegrack Overclock.
i had the same problem, try bionix v 1.3.1 and you will have the most stable rom ever
Occasionally a total reformat of your internal SD is required, especially after several months.
To do this you want to move anything you want saved to your computer including titanium backup folder. After you've saved everything boot into recovery and go to mounts and storage there you'll be able to format. When done you'll have to boot download mode, go to voodoo section of recovery. Now Odin stock firmware and the flash whatever Tom you want, rejoice and click the thanks button.

Here's the deal:
1) Use only "proper" releases, by which I mean, NO PORTS and NO CM7/MIUI based releases. That would me no 2.2.1 or 2.3 versions.
2) Do NOT overclock. AT ALL.
3) Do NOT undervolt. AT ALL.
4) Format your SD Card. Also try removing it temporarily to eliminate it as faulty.
5) DO NOT EVER RESTORE ANY SYSTEM DATA USING TITANIUM BACKUP! IT WILL CAUSE CRASHINESS.
5) All else fails, ODIN to stock and see if the phone is crashing. Make sure it is stable BEFORE installing a bunch of apps. Some of those apps could be causing issues.
If step 5 fixes it but nothing else does, then you are missing a step. Go back and re-read and try again.
If, however, it still crashes after step 5, then you have a faulty phone. Do a warranty exchange.
Hi guys i've customised sony ericssons before but i am a total noob when it comes to this. Can somebody help me I am running on 2.3.3 on my new galaxy ace phone. As far as I know its not rooted I bought it from the shop, I want to overclock from 800Mhz to the possible 921Mhz, and I would like some better visuals. Can somebody help me choose a good rom and give me a quick guide on how I will install it without cocking my phone up ?
Many thanks,
Rob

I'm sure you are aware of this, but overclocking is a big no-no. Overclocking should only be done if you want to push your device to the absolute physical limit, not to improve performance. A lot of people (including me) reported random reboots and shutdowns and touchscreen malfunctions, even when using a 804MHz clock speed.
If you want performance, the safest way to go would be applying (and flashing) tweaks. I use GadgetCheck's V8.5 Turboboost along with Slaid's FastMOD. It's cool and the change is quite noticeable.
Okay, enough of the OC rant.
Firstly, you need to install a custom recovery. For the Ace, we have ClockworkMod's Recovery, available in two versions: 4.0.0.9 (official support) and 5.x.x.x (non official, but it works just as well).
Secondly, BACKUP your device with CWM Recovery, just in case anything unfortunate happens. If something ****ty does happen (and trust me, it WILL happen), you can just restore your backup you made earlier.
Now, you just need to choose your preferred ROM. Here some of the most used ROMs:
1. Custom stock ROMs.
They are mostly stock ROMs with a lot of visual and perfomance tweaks. It won't outperform CM-based ROMs, but battery life is [relatively] excellent.
2. CM7 ports
Currently, we have 3 (or 4 was it?) CM7 ports. The original port of CM7 was compiled by Behrad (he's not developing for Ace anymore, unfortunately) and is quite old. Another one by Grif_07. Those two are based on CyanogenMod 7.1 and are quite awesome and stable. Then there's a newer one by Axel based off CyanogenMod 7.2. Seriously, I don't notice much difference, except for a slight improvement of performance.
CM7 ports and ROMs are also famous for their miserable battery life (on the Ace, anyway. I don't know on any other devices).
3. Ice Cream Sunday Final Based on Axel's CM7.2 port
This ROM is renown for it's absolute blazing speed and lightness. I can't even comprehend how Jusada managed that. Even without flashing tweaks, it's still lightning fast.
But performance requires sacrifice, and ICSunday Final is no exception. Although it has some fancy transition animations, it's barebones, meaning that non-important apps are removed. These include the default File Manager, DSP Manager and the Spare Parts utility for Android.
4. GingerCruzt 2.3 Based on Axel's CM7.2 port
This is quite a semi-antithesis of ICSunday. It's not as fast, but it's really, very, extremely beautiful. Apart from that, it has some Sony Ericsson features such as the Bravia engine and xLoud. It's also not barebones, so most of the default apps are still there. Developed by nims11.
5. Infinity ROM Based on Axel's CM7.2 port
A newcomer (released, like, three days ago). If you thought GC2.3 was beatiful, wait till you see this one. Developed by the same developer, it's ungodly gorgeous and I love it half to death. Unfortunately, the reason I'm not using it right now is because it's too transparent. Not 70% or 75% transparency, but full blown 100% transparent, which causes some text difficult to see.
Okay, I may or may not update this post with links, but hopefully I will.

See my sig and then decide if you really want to overclock
Do NOT overclock. I repeat, do not overclock
Not stable on 921mhz.
Everyone cool down.dude in ma opinion try ics final which has Oc kernel from beginning .but if u want to try another rom which don't have oc kernel flash ketut kumajyas Kernel patch. Remember oc kernel will only work on cm7 based roms. To change frequency go to cyanogen settings > performance than first try frequency of 844 as min and max both. never ever check the box restore settings on boot. Now on each frequency do tests like playing games to see your phone is stable or not. When you got the frequency on which your phone is stable check the box restore cpu settings. Now you have perfect oc
If I helped u in any means hit the thanks button..........

It depends on the device. My phone can handle overclocking up to 840MHz or so, while my mother's phone (also SGA) can't even handle an OC kernel, even though it's not OC-ed.

hey thanks for the replys!
I have managed to install Clockworksmod recovery 5 and I have backed up and saved the backup file to desktop.
I want to install ICS Final and in the instructions it tells me to:
You need cwm5 installed, then wipe system, partition and davick. . . .then go to mounts and wipe data, system and cashe.
then install zip
after install, go through set up then set oc if you use and any other settings then reboot.
I can find the option for wipe data/factory reset
is partion on advanced, partion sd card? and my sd card is 2gb do i click 2048 mb?
then wipe dalvik cache?
Then is it format /data , /system /cache?
Then do i install the ICS zip from my sd threw clockworkmods recovery?
Thanks!

Are you trying to partition your SD card through CWM? If so, don't click on 2048, but on how big you want your ext partition to be. If you don't know what ext partitions are, you better just skip that part.
Yes, flash ICSFinal through the "install zip from sd card" option.
hey guys i really appreciate the replys but i have managed to brick my phone, i think lol. I backed up with clockworksmod recovery and flashed ICS final and all went well but I prefer the stock rom. I tryed to recover and when I did i just get stuck at the samsung gt etc... screen. So I have just flashed again to ICS and it seems I am stuck on this now.
My sd is stuck into the phone aswell so I cant attempt to take it out, anybody have any ideas what is wrong? Thanks

Wohoooo it is time for Odin flash.
OK solution-simple you can't use that backup. Go to sammobile website from there you can download latest firmware of your area(continent) and download a cooper. Ops file. There is a guide in sammobile on how to use Odin flash. Read it carefully if any problems then ask here. All above mentioned files can be found in website.
Reason -u can't use backup bcz stock rom flash our system with rfs format and ics with ext4 format. So backups doesn't not change system type.......

At first I thought that overclocking is cool and good but it just uses power and my sgs2 is fast enough underclocked to 1ghz, though if your phone has some lag, maybe then u should overclock slightly, but if it's lag free, I wouldn't recommend to overclock

I'm currently using sgs2 with stock gingerbread.
My problem is, my phone seems to be locked on a specific state dated march 3rd 2013.
whenever i format usb storage or reboot my phone, it always back the way it was
e.g. when i tried to un/install apps or deleting files (succesfully), and then i rebooted it, the apps or files are still there such way unharmed.
i remember its somewhat like deep frezee. but usually, something like this only works on settings right?
its really nonsense when i deleted 8 gigs of file then i do a format/reboot, the 8 gigs files came up again like nothing has happened.
Already tried factory reset and unchecked restore backup settings.
Never faced something like this before, help is much appreciated
Sound like a problem with the rom, best thing you can do is backup everything (data) and do a complete wipe through recovery and flash a clean rom again. Very strange but have never (in all my experiece of IT etc) come across stuck dates and data that wont dissapear.
Edit: maybe this is a damaged or corrupt filing system? Still, the fix for tha would to be a complete format.

before this, a had an issue with the sd card, it suddenly went corrupt and cant be read anywhere. maybe this is one of the factors too?
i do planned reflashing it with jelly bean, but i'm still curios what has caused this so i can prevent and understand the problem..
my phone cant make new memories as well, new files are nowhere to be found after reboot.

Alright, I hope I have this in the right place. I just recently flashed the TerraSilent Kernel for the Galaxy Player 4.0 US version. The Flash went fine, but my device was running extremely slowly. A re-flash didn't solve it either. I figured that wiping the cache partition might solve the problem - I decided to do this before running a backup, since no important data is stored in the cache (...right?), and since I was worried that backing up while I had this problem could make things worse - so I went ahead into CWM and did just that. Then, it reboots, and I nearly get a heart attack. The stock wallpaper is back, it's using the default launcher again (I had LauncherPro installed), and pretty much only system apps work, all the others have an icon with an SD card on it, and when clicked on, it says something like "application not installed". I did some searching, and it seemed like a reboot might help (although I didn't find anyone with a problem like mine anywhere). The reboot didn't do anything, so now I have it shut down, so that nothing can happen. The odd thing is, it doesn't seem to me like the system messed up and did a full wipe instead, either, because a couple of things I have are still there - for example, some of my bookmarks I made on the homescreen while still using the default launcher are still there. I'm really confused because I have wiped the cache partition before, when I was still on an unmodified stock kernel, and everything stayed the same, the way I thought it was supposed to. And now this happens. What do I do now? I exported my absolute most important data (Astrid Tasks and Calendar) before I installed TerraSilent (but I obviously wasn't able to do a full backup because I wasn't rooted, I figured installing TerraSilent would root it), so my absolute most important data is on my computer. I also did a simple file backup of the internal USB storage and external SD card to another computer before flashing TerraSilent. However, there is still a good deal of data still need, and a lot of data that would just be a pain in the rear to recreate, not to mention my (valuable to me) game data. What did I do wrong - or did something in the system mess up? And - what do I do to get back to where I was before?
It happened to me when I was on gingerbread with terrasilent. It's a known issue with this kernel. In fact, you didn't wipe the data, but the recovery contain a bug wich format the data as soon as you do an operation wich mount the data partition(I think it's this but I can't remind) but it doesn't wipe the system or anythin else, so the icon, setting and everything else stay there but without anything attach to them. I don't remind what was causing it, I only stopped using cwm with this kernel unless I wanted to flash something or to wipe everything. Sorry but I can't help you more as I don't remind everything, it's been a while since I've been on gingerbread.

Wasn't that problem solved with a later version of the kernel though?
And, assuming that's what happened (what you describe sounds pretty much like what happened to me), would that mean that the only way to try and get it back would be by trying to recover the formatted data?

It was said to be resolved, but it happened to some peoples even thought. Maybe you can recover some of your data with your computer and some tools that let you get the erased data, but I can't guarantee the integrity of your data and you would need to replace every bit of data that was there before to get it running nicely. The easiest way would be to try to recover some of your important data, put it on your computer then wipe your player and start from scratch (wipe data/factory reset) and reinstall your apps. Then put back the save, or setting or files that you got back in your apps. Hope this help, I'm not a proffessional with data recovering or where to put it back after you got it, maybe someone else could further help you with this.

I managed to copy the partition with all the deleted contents over to the computer, and I'll have to study the contents some other time, because I've spent about 24+ hours on this problem in total, and need my device for more important purposes - those for which the data I managed to copy before the custom kernel and everything else. For those of you who have a similar issue, this is how I managed to save (or that is I am 95% sure this will have saved at least some, as I said I haven't studied it yet) what I hope is a good chunk of my data.
Have you tried flashing a different kernel? Terrasilent also gave me some weird in that after a few days my device would boot into recovery by itself then wipe all my data in that only my system apps would remain. So it's a little different than what's happened to you. I ended up using klin's R3 kernel or Steven's kernel that fixed the issue.

I've got huge issue with steve's kernel. You can get into recovery, but once you booted in it will simply bootloop. Then you have to flash back with odin. So if you go with steve's kernel, don't boot into recovery. As for klin's kernel, I've never tried it, and will probably never as we have some really nice jellybean rom that I recommend you.
I never got that issue with steve's kernel.

Actually, with my problem, my system apps did remain, so it's almost the same problem, only my device didn't boot into recovery on its own (seriously, it booted into recovery on its own and wiped the data? ). I only installed the terrasilent kernel to be able to upgrade to JB, so I'm now on JB, running into different problem (the wrong settings are being backed up from google backup, they're restoring from my galaxy mini 2), but thanks anyway. I am really not having any luck at all with this whole update . But ti-pich, I agree with you, that JB rom is awesome

Yes it did, after 1 week. I was like ???. I reflashed it again and it did the same exact thing, and it happened to me while I was at my college too.
I also had that same issue where it was restoring from the wrong device. I just had to reflash the rom, and install stuff manually because it was making my device horribly slow.

Wow that is some scary stuff, now I know why every kernel/ROM/mod has a disclaimer at the beginning ... I'm glad I'm off that now and on a stable JB build now. I found a way to have it restore at least some of the stuff from when it was on gingerbread (mostly apps and appdata, no WiFi passwords or other settings - at least I'm pretty sure, I'm still working on getting all the stuff up and running) - go into a terminal, and type
Code:
bmgr list sets
It will probably have two different sets, one for when it was on GB and one for JB - or that is, if you had the problem, there will probably be a third set for a different device (maybe more). Then, choose the one you want to restore from, and type
Code:
bmgr restore xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and replace xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with the apropriate ID from the command before. I'm having to type it several times in order to get it to work - I type it once, it restores some apps, then stops, I type it again, and it restores some more - but I'm hoping it gets as much possible onto the JB build. I guess this won't help you much, I've seen you saying on the ICS and JB threads that you've upgraded a while ago, but I guess if someone else comes along with the same problem, I hope it will help

hmmm. I'm about to try Terrasilent with my YP-G1 (US version) running 2.3.6. This is giving me second thoughts. Does this kernel still cause issues with SGP 4.0s running GB 2.3.6?? Maybe I should try the old Steves Kernel? I just want to use voodoo sound - thats really the only reason I want to root and get these kernels.
