Needed help with lagfix - Verizon Droid Charge

I will try to keep this simple. I was on Altered Beast with the peanut butter jelly kernel. I wanted to get the EE4 update. I disabled lagfix, odin back to E1 and accepted the EE4 UPDATE.
I then flashed the new clock work recovery (the yellow one). I was able to get Gummy Rom installed and running. I went to try to enable voodoo lagfix inside clockwork and it won't re-enable. The weird thing is, I'm getting really high quadrant scores like I am lagfixed. I tried deleting the disable lagfiz file inside the Voodoo folder on my SD card. That file is gone now, but I still can't enable voodoo. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gummy rom doesn't have a kernel. Flash pb and j kernel with CWM.

My phone says that my kernel is :2.6.32.9 imnuts virtualbox #1. Using the new clockwork mod I still can't enable the voodoo lagfix. It shows as disabled in the clock work menu. Selecting the enable option make it go through the process but doesn't actually change anything.

I had a similar problem (problem with disabling it). If you are checking CWM Recovery and think Voodoo Lagfix is off because your font is yellow, then check ADB if Voodoo is enabled or disabled.
I know enabled, font should be red. Disabled font should be yellow. But I know I have voodoo enabled but my phone in Recovery is still yellow.
So check via adb.

I am guessing from my quadrant scores that I have the lagfix working (1584} but it still says disabled in the clock work menu.

[Q] Voodoo Lagfix problem

I just finally got my mez on 2.2 last night running EC10 Pnp v0.3, the problem as I see it anyways is that everytime that I boot into recovery I have to apply update.zip, I thought that once the custom rom was flashed I wouldn't have to do this anymore. Also in the voodoo menu it says
Voodoo lagfix is actually: disabled
I have read that it is just something wrong with the cwm that reports it that way, as long as it says Next boot: enabled everything should be fine. Well mine dosen't no matter what I do it says next boot: disabled. If someone could point me in the right direction to make sure it is working correctly I would greatly appreciate it.
What I actually see on the screen under the Voodoo lagfix menu options are
E:Missing bitmap progress_empty
(Code -1)
E:Missing bitmap progress_fill
(Code -1)
CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v2.5.1.x
Voodoo lagfix is actually: disabled
next boot : disabled
Options:
/system lagfix conversion: no
debug mode : no
Also slightly off topic but the rom I installed was ec10 but my system firmware says ea11 is that right?
So I flashed ec10-vlu-voodoo.zip and now I have the messed up boot screen so I know that the kernel is right plus I have quadrant scores around 1600 but it still says lag fix disabled on next boot so can anyone tell me if it is working and maybe it is just being reported wrong or what?

If your getting that quadrant score you must have lagfix enabled. Everytime you go into recovery it will show disabled and on next boot it will be enabled, if it doesn't click on enable lagfix.

Ok like I said it says disabled on next boot but I guess I'm ok. Any idea how to make it do that I don't have to apply the update.zip file each time to get to the red recovery?

I have never had to flas the update zip more than once I dont see where the problem lies

Did you apply cwm_froyo.tar with Odin? Thats how I got mine to work right, flashed cwm_froyo.tar (actually switched to the new one, cwm-recovery-all.tar) in Odin, then booted to recovery, applied update.zip, and haven't had to do the update.zip again.
Here is the xda page on the new recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942021
I never actually got it working right with ec10 but as soon as I put miui on it everything began working perfect until I had so many missed messages so I went to ASOP and now everything is amazing plus I'm getting quadrant scores over 2000 w/o oc' ing!

[Q] Gas Screwed My Phone Up?

Hello everyone -
I installed the GAS EC10 PNP based rom through CWM after clearing my Dalvik cache. Now my home screen button doesn't work, my search key doesn't work, and I cannot download anything from the market (just says "starting download").
What should I try next? I can go back to Heinz 57 but I was looking for something FAST and my Task Killer still had me running at <130MB on H57 as installed.
Appreciate it. And check it out: this is my FIRST post EVER!
Happy first post! As for your problem have you tried a reflashed of that rom? Also did you do the prerequisite data wiping? And a note about your task killer and the memory being used....Android leaves applications in the ram even when not in use so they start up faster. That will not make a big difference in the speed of your phone. What will is your kernel, processor speed and what type of file system you are on. (rfs-stock, ext4-voodoo, mtd-latest aosp file system) Have you tried a voodoo kernel with lagfix enabled? Or one of nemesis's kernels that you can overclock?

Thanks for the feedback!
I have now flashed 3 ROM's and I am kind of freaking out because the home softkey and the search softkey no longer work in the ROM's. through CWM, I ran a "keytest" and they all gave me numbers so they did seem to work (whether or not the numbers were correct, I don't know).
Re: your comments on the speed and kernel, etc: I don't know! I followed this newbie guide and in my CWM it says "CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery". Does that imply I have the voodoo kernel? Is the lagfix enabled by default or do I need to do that as well?
ANY help would really be appreciated! I am hoping I don't need to flash back to the USCellular standard and take my phone into the store for service...

That doesn't mean anything necessarily. How the phone is actually running for you is what to pay attention to. RAM numbers can be misleading.

The text doesn't mean anything, they all say Voodoo Lagfix Recovery. To check if lagfix is enable just go to the Voodoo portion of recovery and it should show some text at the bottom saying if lagfix is enabled. And no it is not enabled by default. You would know if it was enabled because the phone will take a good 5 minutes or so to boot up during the initial filesystem conversion and the voodoo lady talks you through the process. You'd know if it happened.

Can't disable voodoo in CWM, what to do?

Hey, I'm having an issue. I followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122657 to flash my charge with PBJ Kernal (voodoo) and GummyCharged 1.8.5. Like it but I keep receiving notices saying that the android core closed unexpectedly, with several programs receiving the same errors. I decided I want to go back to the stock rom (just for now) but with voodoo still enabled. I plan to follow this guide to go back to stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1121201.
My problem is that i seem to be unable to disable voodoo in CWM whenever I try. After each try, I never hear the voice and my quadrant score is still around 1600.
How do I proceed, with my end goal being stock with voodoo enabled?
If CWM recovery is not working for you, try the Voodoo Control App by supercurio. There's a free or paid version.
Once you open the app scroll down to voodoo lagfix and you should see if it's active, then go in to lagfix preferences and uncheck everything and it should deactivate it on next boot.
Thanks
Good to know. I will keep that in mind when I get back to tinkering with the phone. I ended up following a link to another forum where a guide to get back to stock exist. I wiped everything from my phone that I could and went back. I was worried about not being able to disable voodoo, but it seems to have worked just fine. I actually prefer many of touchwiz (crazy, I know) so I decided to go that route. Everything seems to be working fine now, no errors every 5 mins and my quadrant score is back to the 900s . I guess what I want now is to just get voodoo and root on this rom, any recommended posts I should read?
So you basically want a rooted stock rom with voodoo. Yes?
That's exactly what I want.

market wont download after disabling voodoo

I used voodoo control plus to disable voodoo lagfix so that I could make a backup of my phone and now the maket starts to download a app and just stops without downloading the app or I should say any app. My phone is using cwm yellow and I rooted it with EE4dxvodo_DXC.tar.md5. Any help would really be appreciated.
fix.apk
I have been reading and did try the market fix.apk, but it still does not work. Does anyone have any ideas?
Reflash.

reflash the EE4dxvodo_DXC.tar.md5 or yellow cwm or all of it?

Phone dialer app just disappeared

I don't know how it happened but the phone dialer button in tw launcher has disappeared. Does anyone know a way that I can get it back? Its one of the default icons with touchwiz the green phone button.
You can check the themes and apps section and download a custom dialer
What ROM are you currently on? And what kernel, if stock or a modded one? And is voodoo enabled? (lagfix ext4)
You may have to wipe to factory defaults to get it back. Or you're free to try a custom dialer.
