Good evening all. I am wanting to go from Dark Revenge (Non-Voodoo) to Kaos V7. Anything I need to know before hand? I tried to sift through he Kaos thread for clues but couldn't find anything.
Any help would be appreciated.
I cant imagine why you would be on nonvoodoo, but for kaos v7 you must be on a voodoo kernel prior to flashing. However, with Jt's CM7 you do not need a voodoo kernel.

So i keep looking at all these threads about Fusion and i am really tempted to try it but i have one question, it seems that it does not come with Voodoo and that i would need to get it from somewhere else if i want it, i have Bionix 1.9.1 with Voodoo and i am satisfied with it no problems. I know Voodoo can be really tricky if not handled properly, so is there any way that Fusion will come with Voodoo in the future?

You can use voodoo with fusion, just pick to use the KK kernal or JACs kernal and do the same steps to enable it as you did the first time. Just ensure you disable voodoo before you try flashing anything.

thank you, ill give it a try soon.
Ive been using Nero v3 for a little while, and Im interested in trying voodoo. Since flashing, Ive installed a few tweaks (some updated apps from SGS tools), and a theme (SGB 2.2.2).
I know its damn near impossible to perma-brick this phone, but is it safe to enable voodoo now that Ive tweaked the rom a bit?
You should have no problems. I've done it a few times on nero v3.
Thanks, Ill be giving it a try later tonight, but Im debating on waiting til the new SBG comes out...
I've made a LOT of changes and voodoo + nero v3 play very well together.
Remember, its a stock kernel so it really is very safe. Just recall to disable before flashing anything unless it too is voodoo'd. ha
Took the plunge, thanks for easing my fear of possible dragons hah
Can you elaborate on what you can flash when voodoo is enabled?

Basically anything but a rom or kernel that doesn't support ext4 FS is safe. In other words, almost anything since most rom developers are packaging voodoo kernels now
So if nero v4 came out with the voodoo kernel I could flash the package and not have to convert to rfs and back to ext4?
^ yes, unless sombionix states otherwise.
Greetings! Just a quick question. I recently flashed bionix v 1.3.1 (just amazing).
I then had to take it to thee extreme and flashed destroyer of worlds kernel on it.( again amazing) my question is this. I notices after flashing the kernel my version changed from bionix
To nero w/destroyer of worlds. Soon is this still bionix? Or did the kernel flash nero b4 over
Bionix? Also if I wanted to try the dragon kernel out, can I flash over the down kernel? Or
Should I reflash thee original bionix back and then proceed to flash dragon as I did with
dow? Sorry im just confused why my build went from bionix to nero with a kernal and not a
Rom. Love it either way.
Have anyone put Bionix-v 1.3.1 rom on there Telus Fascinates? I'm new to all this and don't want to brick my phone. So far Ive rooted it and installed Supercurio's Stock+Voodoo kernel. Ive seen that if there is any bootloader in the rom it will brick. Is there any in this rom?
Thanks
Put this in Captivate, you may get more answers.
Samsung Fascinate, Verizon
EB01 Superclean 2.4
Kenesis' TransMyst GBKB (EPIIIIIC)
Mob87's Honeycomb Theme
Stock Kernel
Any one knows whats the biggest difference between Darky's and Bionix?
Thanks!

this might help actually.
read carefully about sbl.bin & family (!) if you don't want to brick your phone
Hey.
I thought i could offer some insight, even though i'm pretty new to the scene myself.
I had flashed bionix 1.3.1 onto my telus fascinate as well, and it did not have a bootloader. You might want o to follow the link v260 posted and double check the zip file.
I did not keep it for too long since as i read elsewhere on the forums, bionix did not give me a working gps. I'm not sure if others experienced it, but i also noticed a bit of battery drain (with and without voodoo enabled).
After I rooted my phone, I simply installed Bionix 1.3 on it and that was it.
Do I NEED to install a kernel? What does that do exactly?
Everything has been running fine on my T-Mo Vibrant with the Bionix, but would the kernel help in any way?
Thanks.
Read the ROM OP. A kernel is usually prepackaged. Understand your ROM first, then start working with different kernels. Go to the Bible stickied in the forum and you'll see links to all the kernels.
Kernels come with all custom roms. With Bionix roms, they all come with a stock + Voodoo kernel. Its is a stock kernel that has the Voodoo lagfix built in and comes preactivated. Custom kernels have more tweaks and features than the stock voodoo kernels, like Voodoo sound, Overclocking and Undervolting abilities, and more. I advise you research the advantages and disadvantages of installing custom kernels. Until you have done your research about them, i suggest you stay on the stock+Voodoo kernel for now. Once you think you're ready for a custom kernel, please choose one that is up-to-date and was built to work on Froyo roms, like Bali, Bali-X, Bullet, and Immortality.
Okay, so my question then is, with the Bionix them, if I wanted to install Bali 1.8v
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043947
Would I just do that via Clockwork Mod, then reinstall the Bionix ROM?
Or would that be too messy and possibly screw something up?
Thanks Mr. Apocalypse
You can flash kernels through CWR or SGS Kernel Flasher (in the market). Thing is, the I agree with Mr Apocalypse, you need to be reading and checking out things or your next post will be, "I bricked my phone, how to I fix it?"
This is directly from the OP of the Bionix ROM thread.
Optional Kernels:
NOTE:
Team Whiskey is not liable and takes absolutely no responsibility for any damages. Overclocking your phone adds additional stress to your hardware, so please understand the risks involved before you decide to overclock. Not all devices overclock the same, so please test the different clock speeds and see which one works best for you. Many times, certain devices will not accept an overclock at all. If you fall into this category, you will have to flash back to a stock kernel.
(all of these kernels have been compiled from official Vibrant 2.2 source code. They are include voodoo sound, voodoo color, and bln support. Bionix-v 1.3.1 already included the necessary apps for these features. Test these optional kernels and see which one works best for you!)

After you flash Bionix, then flash Bali. You can do that in ClockWorkMod Recovery or SGS Kernel Flasher, i prefer to use CWM Recovery because sometimes the app doesnt install some special files that are needed for things like BLN to work. But either way is ok, just dont reflash the rom afterward or you'll be back on the stock+Voodoo kernel
Bali is a great choice, drhonk builds those rock solid.
