Tried to flash a custom ROM for the 15th time or so, with the same result. E: Can't Symlink /system/bin/su
Failure at line 16
Have researched this error, thought I had it figured out. Obviously not. Feel like an idiot. I never had any problems loading custom ROM's on 2.1.
BTW, I am rooted thru S1Click, have backed up thru nandroid and Titanium, have installed 3e custom recovery, everything I have read I could be doing wrong I have changed. I have tried different makers- Bionix, Axura, Eugene, all with hte same errors, so I know it's not just the ROM file.
What am I doing wrong here?
I don't know.. but let's save everyone the trouble of answering this and let you odin back to stock.
It might be something you flashed etc..
tried that too. tried loading these ROM's right after rooting and adding ROM manager. It's just weird that know one can answer a specific problem like "failure at line 16". Surprised there isn't an answer to look up based on the Line 16 error.
I'm not pointing any fingers, because I don't know the answer either. Just know that if you you give me one of the basic replies, like try ODIN to stock, I've probably tried it.
What are you odining to? I've always had success going to back to jfd. Doesn't seem to be any issues with rooting or rom manager.
Trigger + Overstock = Awesomeness
yep. Odining to jfd.
One thing is that I always install 2.2 via mini-kies before attempting to install custom ROM. Reason being that for whatever reason, the super one click just does not want to install on 2.1. Could that be part of the problem?
Here's what I do and it works every time for me.
1. Odin to jfd
2. Root then install rom manager
3. Flash clockwork recovery
4. Download rom of choice to internal sd
5. Flash rom thru clockwork
6. Enjoy
That has never failed me.

I did it. FINALLY.
Loaded Simply Honey 2.5, and this thing is FAST and awesome. Such a cool ROM. I was so pumped when it actually worked. Thanks for all the help, guys. And all the great developers that put in hte time and work to make our phones what they should be. Good job, guys.
Glad you got it working. The first flash is pretty awesome.

I had this happening yesterday, find and Odin Eugene's froyo that doesn't brick, followed by a stock Odin flash with checking repartition the second time to fully clear the problem, or it will happen again probably the next time you go to flash a rom.

This is the safest way and the best way.
okay, right now I'm running the EB01 stock kernel. I'm hoping to go to the EB01 voodoo, or EC10 voodoo kernel. my question is, I want to be able to go back to stock so I can take advantage of any warranty issues that may pop up in the next 6 months that are left on it. I have read you can't flash a non voodoo kernel over a voodoo kernel? if this is true, how can you get it back to stock?
Odin DI01 stock.
thanks, is there a stock dl01 rom out there, somewhere? I don't have any stock roms left after my hard drive corrupted (stupid sandy bridge)
Make sure not to install by CWM, just to remind you.

hi
im new to Samsung and android, i want to test out some
ROMS. my phone was bought secondhand and it came pre
loaded with the details in my signature.
i have read through most of the newbie guide lines here on
this site on how to flash but nowhere (as for what i saw)
does not mention on how to test if your phone has a lagfix or by
which method.
as i have read you got to turn off the lag fix before flashing ROM's
so how do i turn mine off.
thanks
HtcDia
*** my current phone details are in my signature ***
Thank you for posting in the correct section and reading some material before posting!
As to your question, if you are completely stock (rooted or not), your Vibrant does NOT have a lag fix enabled. Most of the newer Roms allows for flashing over a lag-fixed (Voodoo) enabled kernel, but only if it comes equipped with a Voodoo injected kernel.
Basically
No lagfix enabled -> Can flash any rom (voodoo kernel or non voodoo kernel)
Lag fix enabled (Voodoo) -> Can flash roms with Voodoo kernel without turning off Voodoo | Must disable Voodoo to flash non-Voodoo kernels
edit: I'm not sure if that is the answer you're looking for but if you go to the red CWM recovery, you can go to Voodoo -> Disable Voodoo. If you do not have a red recovery, then most likely you do not have a Voodoo enabled kernel, thus do not have a lagfix in place. (I assume you also did not use One-Click Lagfix)
thanks anthonys2r
i have not seen either voodoo or anything pertaining to it on my phone nor
have i done the one click fix.
so i can safely assume that i do not have one in place.
thanks for the answer it is perfect
HtcDia
^ You may want to start "fresh" and use ODIN to go back to stock... very easy process (check my signature).
You likely DO have a lagfix (ext4 "voodoo"). But, if your next rom has voodoo enabled, it will not matter if you disable it or not.
There is an app, Voodoo toggle in the market you can use... or you can reboot into CWR and go to the voodoo section. It will also tell you.
Here is the Simply Honey ROM THREAD
Not sure if you were planning on updating or trying a new rom... if the latter, really recommend going back to stock again. I would also encourage Trigger 3.2... its 2.2 but it's stable/themed well!
opening a terminal emulator and typing the command: mount should tell you what file system you're running. Unless everything lists RFS you have a lagfix enabled. If not just 3-button to recovery and scroll down to voodoo... It will tell you inside if it's activated or not.

It's funny you should suggest that i should checked your signature
because most of the stuff that i have gathered initially till present
came from your links LOL.
thanks for providing them as they are great material for android scardy
noobs like me.
yes i do have voodoo. i actually found it lol.
if im right what i want to do is now upgrade my version.1 Simply Honey ROM
to another stable version just to get a feel of flashing and stuff
thanks

On a related question, i can't initiate voodoo for some reason. I read the log and it said "model not detected". Anyway to correct this?
I cant seem to enable voodoo on my phone I have trigger 3.2 and I flashed overstock 1.5.2UV, I'm coming back from CM7 and I don't have the red clockwork recovery either? What can I flash to get this going I have Voodoo toggle that doesn't work neither does voodoo control ...
Did you odin back to stock and then flash Trigger and Overstock?

Hm. When booting Trigger for the first time did you hear the voice enabling voodoo?
No Im sure it has to do with CM7 file systems or something...
If you odin'd back and checked repartition that should have wiped the CM7 filesystem and reverted it back to stock RFS.
And you are on Trigger and don't have the red Clockwork?

Try to use Eugene's odin rom, and then go back to stock JFD and see if that fixes it.
I got it you have to odin Eugene's froyo that doesn't brick, then I used Eugene's 2.2 Downgrade odin flashed that annnnnndddddd now I'm flashing Trigger and I can hear Lindas voice now
Happy flashing.
So I just rooted my wife's phone and froze as many apps as I could without glitching the system out with TB. The phone was super laggy from the box but now it seems better but she said today that it froze on her a couple times. I come from a Droid X with GB 2.3 rooted and it's pretty fast for me. Even when it was stock it was quick. I'm not sure what else to do. Since it's my wife's I would rather leave it as close to stock as possible. Any suggestions.
Also is there a list of apps that can be froze in TB without causing other issues. It may be possible I froze one to many.
Thanks for your time.

I read over it all and my wife's phone is ED04 which is not in his list. I think this is exactly what I am looking for. I understand most of it except the modem stuff. There are so many numbers and versions to use. This is so different than my droid x. If I would have started with her phone first, I probably would have never attempted to mod it. Anyways what should I do now? Would it be better to flash a rom that's not stco but stable and fast. Just for giggles I did a quadrant test on hers and mine. She barely broke 900 while mine is over 1900. Seems like a huge difference being both are 1g processors.
Thanks for the help.
Terry
Barely breaking 900 is normal if you are not using a voodoo enabled kernel. The rfs partition is what is the biggest bottleneck. If you truly want a snappy rom, jump to comrom or evil fascinate. I use both equally and both will give you the speed you are wishing to match from your dx. As for modems, your wife's modem is compatible with either rom I mentioned.
For now I would suggest keeping her phone froyo based as gb is still being worked on by our awesome devs, but isn't for the faint at heart just yet IMHO

Perfect, exactly what's needed. So do I follow these steps even tho is says from ED01.
Install Instructions:
If you are coming from a stock ED01 non rooted build follow these instructions:
Download Evil Fascination and place it on your SD card
Download Odin: http://www.mediafire.com/?msnc375idu7xhqt
Download Recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/?pfuhk4ibn9uore3
Install Samsung Drivers for your pc: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=779238
Remove battery from the phone
Connect the phone up through USB and hold volume down during the connection
Your phone will be in download mode
Open up Odin and click on the pda button and select the recovery file
Click Start on Odin - phone will reset when flashed
Hold volume up and down and insert battery back into the phone and boot it up. Hold volume up and down while it boots up and it will boot into CWM recovery. If it has boot up to the startup animation you will need to start over and reflash recovery through odin
When you are in CWM recovery continue with the instructions below.
If so I'm ready to flash it.
Thanks
Terry
Yeah that looks good. Just use Odin (pda button) to flash your recovery. (Ensure you are using the PDA button. Cannot emphasize that enough)
Then follow the steps outlines. You're good to go.

Thanks a million. Will update after flash.
Terry
Just to make sure since there are a million different downloads is this the right one to download. (highlighted in red is the one)
CR 2.0
These versions will wipe your data, so make sure you back it up
This version contains the EC01 modem/radio and imnut's 05/31 PBJ -50mv nonvoodoo kernel
This version contains no modem/radio and imnuts' 05/31 PBJ -50mv nonvoodoo kernel
So this one would be without the kernel which is the modem/radio.
Then I do this patch for 2.1
Com Rom (froyo) 2.1 (patch, must flash on top of 2.0, no need to wipe):
md5: 725f94fa1cad7e562a767cd61ecd590b
And then this theme.
[THEME] Crysis Revolution v4.0 *Community ROM 2.1!* *6.20.11*
Is this all correct and in the right order. I want to 100% sure before I do this. Man is it so much different than flashing my DX.

this looks fine, no need to worry about the radio I believe it will use the one from whatever baseband you're at before you flash (ED04 I believe you said) or you can flash the one with ED01 radio... yes ComRom with imnuts' PBJ kernel is good, I would suggest the voodoo kernel one but its up to you, patch on top of that then theme after and you should be set
tapatalked from my GINGERBANGED Fascinate
As anoninja said. You should be good to go. Thing to keep in mind is that it is very difficult to brick your fascinate. Not impassible. But difficult. As long as you stay with fascinate files, never try captivate, vibrant, i9000, etc, stuff, then worse case scenario, you may have to odin back to stock and try again, but even that's unlikely. Good luck. Keep us posted with your progress

Hey thanks guys, feels better knowing it's not so easy to screw my phone up. I read a little about voodoo before work and yes, I do want to have it. So the majic question is, which one.
Thanks
Terry
Well if you choose evil fascination with the kernel, I think out will automatically convert you to voodoo so no extra steps other then to wait for the conversion after it boots.

After doing some more research I have decided to go with Com Rom 2.0 then patched to 2.1.
I am going to go with this one:
*Fixed* UKB 2.0 with -50 PBJ Voodoo Kernel ***6.4.11 (script fixed)
md5: 1092A4F02F668521D633670A80BA127C
My wife doesn't like the all black theme on the evil rom. Now I am still a little confused on the kernel thing. I have been reading for awhile now and will continue to do so. I'm not understanding if I have to flash the kernel first or rom first. I have been through the fascinate development thread over and over and while most put "how to's" in them, I still don't understand in which order things should go. There is so much to do just to flash a rom on this phone. But I know I will get it done even if I have to start over from fresh. So many roms, kernels, updates, 2.2.3.4.6._______, etc, etc...... What exactly is a kernel? I come from the droid x back ground where we root, cwr, then flash. That's it. Also to me Odin seems to be a 3rd party app that's needed to flash CWR. Other than that is there any other use for it. Sorry for all the ?'s but I like to do my homework before I do something like this. I am a pretty good self learner but the way things are worded for the phone is a little confusing at times. Maybe a step by step list if starting fresh.
EX- 1-root
2-odin
3-cwr
4-kernel or rom or both
Something like that would be easier to understand. Anyways I always appreciate any help I get.
Thanks

yes odin is a 3rd party program used to push installs, and most roms nowadays will root you and install kernel (most come with it built in unless otherwise specified) when you flash them so no worries about rooting or kernels... a little about voodoo here:

I'll try and make it simple, this is how I did it and had no problems:
1. obvious step, have all the driver, programs and packages you need ready to go: samsung drivers and odin on your pc, both ComRom 2.0 and 2.1 patch on sd card
2. assuming you're already on EB01 froyo baseband or higher, you wanna use odin to install CWR
3. from CWR make any backups you want then wipe data/cache/dalvik
4. flash .zip of rom you want (ComRom 2.0), select reboot phone once to ensure it took. Since you're flashing a voodoo kernel on first boot you should hear a robot lady saying she's formatting partitions, this may take a while but its normal
5. once it started up power phone off and boot again into CWR (or use power button menu to boot straight there with 'recovery' option)
6. flash .zip of ComRom patch, no wiping needed and select reboot phone

You are the shiz nik. Perfectly worded and the timing couldn't have been better. Phone has both files ready to go. I found some more literature on kernels and now understand what it does. Pretty much controls performance of the phone. And I see roms with and without kernels. For my first time with this phone I will go with a kernel/rom. The radio is stock ED04 which I will leave stock. Will update after I finish all of this. My wife will be stoked now that her phone will run smoothly. Thanks for the detailed explanation for me.

I just wanted to thank all of you that helped me here. Running Com Rom 2.0 w/2.1 patch. It's nite and day compared to how the phone was. So much smoother and no lags as of yet. My wife couldn't be happier now with the phone working like it should be. I did encounter one issue tho. I could not create a backup. It would read an error message. (forgot what it said) Anyways thanks a million for the help. The crt animation is awesome and I love the functions when powering off. Rebooting instead of powering off then on and especially booting into recovery without pushing the volume rocker. Well I am going to add a theme for her so richen it up and go from there.
Just got it to backup as I was typing this. After reading thread after thread it seemed like you either had to flash a kernel other than stock or flash a rom before it would back up. I even tried red, blue, and purple with no luck. Oh well at least now it's backed up.

sucks about the backup, the voodoo lagfix CWR versions are known to have problems with this and unfortunately I forgot to mention this, I tend to not do nandroid backups since I don't keep much on my phone in terms of data and apps, being the flashaholic that I am lol anyway good that you got it up and running, its good stuff and a million times better than stock

Hello,
I'm new to rooting hence I'm asking this question just to be safe.
I had Installed passion 10.6 through this route. Stock-2.1>CM7 Gingerbread>10.6. Every time I just wiped cached and installed the ROM form the zip.
What I want to know is if I changed my kernel?
I was reading on the instructions to install bionix and it was mentioned that one would have to disable the lag fix etc or disable vodoo. Do I need to worry about this or should I just flash bionix rom using the zip?
I'm not even sure my question makes sense. Thanks.
If you're thinking of going from passion to bionix then you should odin back to stock just be safe. If you odin back to stock you shouldn't have worry about the lagfix.
You can check what kernel you have by going to settings->About phone->Kernel Version. (i.e. mine is 3.0.1.5-ICUP ICS-Streamline #1). But if you odin to stock, this won't make a difference as flashing bionix will also flash the new kernel they have with the ROM.
Hope I helped a little.
You have to odin to jfd with re partion checked coming from ics, miui, or cm7. The partions are different on non touch whiz roms

Can't help but wonder, why are you flashing back to 2.2?
I so wish I did not have to. My battery wouldn't last on passion 10.6 and GPS wouldn't work. So for the time being I'm trying something else. Will try passion again next week(now that I'm hooked ) but I need a working phone in the next week
