[Q] EB16 Install Question - Samsung Mesmerize

phidelt82 has just posted the steps to get to EB16 installed using ODIN for the mesmerize.
First great job phidelt82!
I have already installed EA11 stock+root+recovery and have the EA11-voodoo kernel installed and working on my mesmerize.
Following your guide are we to disable lagfix before any of this and reboot right?

Doesn't matter

This will be the same as for ea11, everything done to your phone will be completely erased when you go to eb16.

Always disable lagfix as a precaution. Especially when you are doing an Odin flash.

To re-enable lagfix do I just reflash the voodoo.zip? I tried enabling it through CWM but no dice.

To re-enable the lagfix, just go back in to recovery, select voodoo, then enable lagfix and reboot.

Since the partition is written as ext4 then you are just flashing it with rfs without converting it back. I can't say that it's going to happen every time, but it's possible that you can cause problems that are really hard to fix. From what I've seen it really sucks.

Voodoo lagfix toggle

I have a voodoo kernel installed and wanted to know if the either of the voodoo lag fix toggles in the android market would work on a samsung galaxy s showcase. Also, do I have to disable voodoo to update my kernel to get the voodoo sound? And when I do update the kernel I can flash it with clockwork as usual? I just want to make sure of the procedure. Thanks.

I wouldn't use the app, its easy to flash into recovery with quick boot.
You do have to have laggix disabled. If you don't...lets just put that into the bad idea column.

Ok i will disable voodoo. Thanks for your help.
Ok thanks i will disable lagfix and won't bother with the toggle. Thanks for the help.

It need not be disabled flashing Voodoo to Voodoo.

Don't confuse them dcow. It's just good practice to disable lagfix. If something goes wrong and you have to do a restore, you want lagfix disabled.

I agree that it is good practice. I just thought flashing Voodoo to Voodoo and not disabling the lagfix was a pretty standard thing to do. Sorry if I confused anyone..

[Q] Do I reflash and what steps do I take?

I have had 2.1 rooted with voodoo for 2.1 for a while not, but am getting forced closes and automatic restarts while I am in the middle of a task or even when just charging overnight. I have heard reflashing fixes the issue. I am not sure the steps needed to reflash. Do I need to undo lagfix or can I just reflash without doing anything?
I have tried getting question answered in fascinate forum where our 2.1 voodoo kernal is located, but no one has answered for over a day. I do have a mesmerize and is mesmerize kernal.
Thank you in advance.
Anyone? Do I need to delete voodoo to re flash voodoo?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Yeah you should always disable voodoo before reflashing, but you should update to froyo eb16. It is much better.

[ROM][EC01] Evil Fascinate ver. 3.1 and 3.3 Fixed for Mesmerize

I made the edits for this to use on EC01 mesmerize.
Per the norm, I am not responsible if you jack your phone up trying to use this. I have done nothing to this other then edit it per dfgas's instructions to use on my Mez.
Original Thread here.
Read the original thread for any problems you have. I am not a dev, so you will not get a helpful answer from me.
All credit goes to nitroglycerine33 and the others that did all the work on it.
Download fixed 3.1 ROM here
another update was made this afternoon. I will try to have it fixed and posted tonight.
Download Fixed 3.3 Rom here
***Do not Theme this ROM. Works good the way it is. I themed it and ended up having to re-flash it.
thanks will give a try
So I need to flash ec01 radio first?

Yes ec01 radio first.

You also need an EC10 source Kernel
sent from my SFC+FIX, EC01, voodoo enabled, Samsung Mesminate.
OK... So, let me get this straight... This is what I need to do to flash this:
1. Disable Voodoo
2. Flash the stock Mesmerize EC10 image
3. Flash the EC01 radio using Odin (Flash it to where? PDA? Phone?)
4. Flash the Evil 3.3 rom
I feel like there's something missing here, or is there a kernel built-in?
Flash the radio to pda in ODIN.

Go to settings>applications. Choose app that is FC, and clear data. Email and keyboard need to have this done or they willcontinuously force close.
The original thread explains this. Also there is another update out. I'm probably not going to be able to fix it till next weekend. If anyone wants it let me know and I will try to do it sooner.

I'm the same tried 2 different ones and all I get is first time it attemps to boot up with losts of fc's the goes into a boot loop.

Go to > settings> applications > manage applications. Select all apps tab. Find app that is force closing. Select it and then clear data. One this is done it should stop force closing. Email and keyboard did it to me. Cleared data and no more problems.

I flashed this but I'm stuck in a boot loop and when I have gotten it to boot it constantly force closes different apps... Do I need to flash a kernel or is one included? I think that's where I'm stuck.

You need to wipe data before flashing. Backup your apps first tho what kernel are you using?

Remember, disable Voodoo as it says in the post.
Credits:
Krylon for the ROM
Whitehawkx for deodexing
Chainfire for decryption (sorry for not crediting originally, i got so excited i didn't read the rootzwiki post where whitehawkx credited you -.-)
and
drhonk for the kernel (i don't know if it was included but either way, thanks for your work!)
Awesome, its been a big week for the sgs4g. Looking forward to this.

Is it possible to convert the og gb leak with bootloaders to cwm
From a sammy with no hammy only jammy..
I got the KG4 kernel to work with the new leak, which let me restore my data and flash the deodexed KG6 leak, but once I booted KG6 with the KG4+cwm kernel, it f'd up, so I'd say wait for a proper custom KG6 kernel.
This is awesome but what is the difference between KG4 and KG6 anyone know?

Used advanced restore, restored /data partition, then wiped dalvik cache and rebooted.

CM7 to Zeus

So as the title says, I'm trying to go from CM7 to Zeus. I looked in the forums but couldn't find anything on the topic...
Can I just flash from blue CWM? Or will that not work?
Thank you!
It should go without saying, but what the hey.
Remember to backup your contacts.

Should be able to wipe and flash...when it boots up you will hear a voice activating voodoo lagfix...don't trip, its normal...when it boots up if you have any issues then you will need to go back to stock

I don't think it'll be an issue.
The reason why I suggested the full method is that it'll ensure a clean install without glitches or heartaches later that will require you to wipe after you set up everything.
edit: dman may not have much glitches because he odin's his phone every few days or so.

Very weird...so I factory wiped/reset, then flashed from blue CWM. It did NOT do any "installing voodoo" like it did when I put on Infused 1.x months ago.
Took about 3 or 4 minutes to boot up, and it seems alright so far.
I'll let you know.
Its probably because voodoo was already enabled...but that's strange...it always reenables voodoo when coming.g from cn7 or miui....

I just made this change and had to go to stock first. When I tried it without stock I ran into too many glitches. The choice is yours but you're always safer going to stock
