Ok well this past Saturday I spent atleast 7 hours flasing this phone and trying different combinations of kg4 leak and kg6 leak. I would just like to share some results ive had with mixing the two.
First flash in Odin:
I used the entire kg4 leak except I swapped the pda kg4 file for the kg6 leak. That resulted in being stuck in 3e recovery and trying to reboot brought alot of cache and data errors.
Second flash with Odin:
Flashed kg4 leak with all files. rooted using Odin with fugumod. In the end it said I was rooted but I never found the su binary. Flased drhonks kernel ontop of that and still no su binary but root check says im rooted. Also tried to get Linda to talk on this try but didnt hear a thing. Had sdcard unavailable error aswell. Dissappearing apps on reboot.
Third flash in cwm:
So I flashed kg6 deodexed and before rebooting I flased drhonks modded kg4 cwm kernel, checked mounts reboot. Installed busybox 1.19 and tried to convert to ext4 and got sdcard full issue. Back to Odin
Fourth flash in Odin:
Kg6 leak and drhonks kernel. Same errors as before with Linda and the sdcard issue.
Ok lots more flashes but ill gat to the one that got me stable.
Final flash with Odin:
Flashed kg4 leak let it bootup and didnt setup anything and immediately turned it back off. Odined kg6 leak with csc file from kg4, let it boot and again did nothing but tirn it back off and back into down load mode. Flashed fugumod for root let it boot up and off again and then flashed drhonks kernel. Booted up and finally did the setup, went to the market amd searched for superuser, there was an update so I got it along with voodoo control app. Made sure voodoo lagfix was disabled in app. Booted into cwm turned lagfix on. Linda did her thing in no time flat. It booted up and all my apps were still there(root check; titanium backup;ect) all seems great. Still cant fiNed the su binary but to hell with it this thing is smooth battery life is great and I swear there been sound improvment in the rear speaker.
So all in all im satified with my gingerbread experience. Had a lot of fun flashing and trying different things some work half ass and some not at all. So tell us how has it been for you?

About 15 flashes trying to get voodoo to work, multiple boot loops the crazy fc vibrations and reboots. Weak wifi signal. Are you using a different modem? How is wifi with it if you are? Other than the system converting to ext4 issue and weak wifi I love gb.

Got it done right the first time. No issues here. No hanging boot or anything. Went very smooth and would never go back to froyo. I did run into the problem of the voodoo lagfix. I used a spare one gig sd card from my G1 and it converted fine. Its like everyone says, its not working because your sd card had an ext4 partition from froyo builds.

This has been a very trying experience in getting GB working properly, but not that I have KG6 ICBINB working with the new S99partition mounts pushed, I am loving my phone again. Pulling 2400 Quad without OC. Formatting the SD card and eliminating an old ext4 partition from froyo was really all that I needed to do.
That said, there are some minor issues that still haven't been resolved. I am also seeing very week wifi signal. KD1 was very strong, but now unless I am in the room with the wireless it's almost doesn't even register.
The other issue I had was the phone would go into reboot madness if I had wifi on. I think it was the wifi calling feature causing the mayhem. The only way I was able to use wifi without it constantly rebooting was to Freeze wifi calling in TB. As soon as I froze wifi calling it worked flawlessly with wifi enabled or disbled. If anyone has a fix for the wifi issue I would greatly appreciate it.

4. Still on RFS
5. Flash ICBINB GB version (KG6)
6. Boot up still on RFS, Lagfix disabled.
7. Install busybox
8. Reboot to recovery
9. Turn on data and system voodoo lag fix ext4 conversion etc.
10. Boot up Linda talks ( had the stock 16gb sd card with 6gb free) and Linda converts
11. Load into the system and voila running great.
I did however, go back to just KG4 due to some FPS issues that I couldn't resolve. Right now on Whitehawkx's deodexed KG4 with Dr Honk slight kernel mod + cwm + ext4.

This was the first time I installed a custom ROM. I jumped into this a few minutes after the ICBINB ROM was posted so there were no clear instructions and I didn't take the time to read enough. I skipped steps 2-4. So I learned how to use ODIN and how to get into download mode by taking out the battery and holding the volume buttons.
Everything works great no reboots, WIFI calling works great and my Quadrant scores are high (2400+).
My only problem is a weak WIFI signal. I don't get a WIFI signal in a room where I used to get a signal.
I have spent the past few days flashing and experimenting and Dsext can confirm through the PMs we shared that I've had quite a few issues and I have just about everything down to a science. While running the ACID KG4 with ext4 support everything worked great except wi-fi calling. If you've read the thread on here and rw, you can tell this has been a huge issue for me and I hope I can clear this up for all.
When installing busy box, I tried using this JRummy's BusyBox Installer. Busy Box would never install properly (i.e. when you turn Voodoo on, you get a kind of bootloop that allows you to enter android then all of a sudden plays the startup over again and continues to do so.) When using Stericson's Busy Box, everything works flawlessly. I have not once had to format my SD card in any way shape or form.
As far as the wifi calling issue. I have finally settled into ICBINB GB Rom. I had issues getting it to work and here is my solution and explanation. When you flash this ROM, you'll get everything working. When you start to enable your tweaks, you'll find in the restarts your issues will come. I have found that if you leave your wifi turned on and reboot your phone, your phone will no longer connect to the T-Mobile network in any way (i.e. WiFi Calling nor through celluar network). If you reboot your phone WITHOUT wifi turned on everything works great. I believe the kink lies inside the wifi telling the phone that since it is connected to wifi, it doesn't need the data connection so therefore blocks that out. I have informed Dsext of this issue and he is checking it out and will hopefully have it fixed in the next week. Hopefully that helps anyone with those issues.
As for performance, well I'll let my screenshot cover that.

Yeah, truth be told I'm not on the tweaks and everything is running great. Not sure all the tweaks are compatible with GB and there might be some issues there.
Stock Deodexed KG4 has been running pretty smoothly for me so far.
So... I left my phone off for 3-4 days, and when i turned it on, all my installed apps are gone. And the market force closes and the search function in the market doesnt work. And cwm recovery is gone too.
I dont have a computer right now, so anyone know how i can install cwm on the phone? any help would be appreciated.

Everytime i restart my phone, all the apps i downloaded disappears... Note that i haveny done anything to my phone before leaving it off for the 3 days. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Download this and flash it with Odin.

You might need to re-convert to ext4 afterward.
EDIT
It goes on the CSC section by the way.

What FBi said. Ughhh if only the cwm didnt get erased. Do you know the cause of this problem or is it just random...?
P.S. Currently running stock KF2 deodex. Rooted. :/. Ahaha. I was on kh2 but somehow it went back to kf2..
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
Only way it could've gone back to KF2 would be that you flashed it. The thing is that a lot of people reported having more trouble with the earlier GB builds, I'd stick with anything past KG6, so KG6, KH1 OR KH2 for now since that'll get rid of a lot of your problems.
If you do wanna stick with KF2, you'll have to flash the CSC file from KC1 through Odin, then do a factory reset. That should fix the disappearing apps problem. (Raver figured that one out).
u can factory reset from the phone if you can get into blue recovery also do factory reset and wipe cache then do it again from in the phone itself...
that should fix it..
@fbi. The thing is. I was running kh2 then after the 3days, it suddenly changed back to kf2?. idontevenknowhow. I did not flash anything or even touch my phone at all during the 3 days... And i cant get in blue recovery. Even with quickboot. . gotta wait till i can get to a pc.

I had flash multiple roms on the sgs4g and eventually flashed back to kg4 stock after having random shut offs and other issues with those roms and now consistent reboots right after it turns on. I wiped caches fixed permissions All I can do is get her into download mode and cwm voodoo red screen. At one point during the reboot it went on to AT&T network
The kg4 i have is a stock leaked version with ext4 installed on it. After a day of flashing the phone usually goes into a reboot loop. Has anyone experiences these issues before? Could my motherboard be fubar?
I wonder if your bootloaders aren't hosed? If you can get into CWM, I'd suggest turning off voodoo, get it into download mode, and ODIN chadster214's KG4:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183413
I've found that ROM to be a good starting point for GB ROMs. Let me know how it goes.
Thats actually the kg4 rom I am on and have always used for bootloaders. I factory restored it in cwm and it stays on chad's kg4 the rebooting has stopped for now. As for voodoo linda cant convert due to sd card even though shes done it before and its already partitioned to do so.I think the kg4 bootloaders are fine since they lasted this long until now. Can launchers and voodoo cause this rebooting and shut off problems? I'm going to odin it to chadster's again so it can erase everything.Ill give it a day before problems occur again and report back. Thanks for the response.
Firmware: 2.3.4
Baseband:t959vuvkg4
kernel 2.6.35.7-t959vuvkg4-CL385158
Build GBvuvkg4
1.So I flashed chadsters kg4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=1392615 with odin.
2.Then I successfully rooted it following the instructions from the link. Phone works fine no reboots after about 8 hours of use. (I fresh reinstalled apps from market no Titanium restore)
3.Next I flash the kernel stock+Voodoo-T959VKG4.tar from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194032 which gives me red CWM with voodoo ext4 lagfix. After flashing that kernel I start experiencing the random shut off when screens locked, and rebooting issue. Also I get the "can't access the system/tmb/csc error" everytime when flashing in cwm and reg recovery, and im wondering if thats normal.
So I guess its the voodoo kernel thats causing the issues for my phone. Before I started flashing other roms it was fine, now its acting up
Sounds like lagfix is enabled but is causing you troubles. Get into cwm and disable ext4 lagfix, that should keep your phone from reboots.

I no longer have voodoo installed since I i flashed Kg4 again and left it rooted. The rebooting has stopped. Now the issue is the phone shuts of silently on occasions when the Screen is locked and turned off in m. Then I have to hold on power to to turn it on again. Are there any other recommended stable roms?

KI3 seems to be the "newest" and most stable leak. I personally find the KJ1/3 leaks to be very unstable.
Do you use a task killer? If you do, remove that and never touch anything like it again. That definitely causes random reboots.

I believe you have to disable voodoo before flashing, else you may be stuck with some parts of the file system in ext4. I'm wanting to say I had problems after going from a voodoo kernel to a new ROM when I forgot to disable. I ended up flashing chadster's KG4 ROM, drhonk's KG4 kernel, going into recovery, disabling voodoo on everything, then re-flashing to a non-voodoo ROM/kernel.

I have advanced task killer but I don't use it (probably running in background). The only KI3 i can find on this forum is valhallas KI3 and that comes packaged with voodoo. As of right now I'm following stephens tip on flashing dr honks voodoo back and disabling system lag fix and voodoo lagfix, then reflashing to non voodoo rom.
I will report back on results and thanks a lot for the help guys I really appreciate it.

Alright thanks Ill try the ki3. I just did the recooked gb and put froyo back on and i still have the random shut offs while its in sleep mode. I noticed the more I use it or the phone is active it doesn't shut off. Chances increase when phone is put away or not in use.Its like a chuck norris powersave mode, turns itself off when im not using it.
When phone is charging it doesn't happen. Its very hard to duplicate the issue, and my heart races every time i click the power/wake button. Ill do some more research if not ill deal with it. Thanks again.

Sorry, I just lol'd when I read "Chuck Norris powersave mode", LOL! :x
Anyways, I would suggest you to remove your task killer anyways. In the worst case scenario, it might actually be faulty hardware. :/
To start I'm not sure if this is the right place to post considering I can't post on the development thread yet.
So I was running the quickwiz 1.0.3 rom and i flashed the dag kernel and accidentally did a data wipe, so I then restored it to a previous backup. Now there are random times where my phone will lock the screen and it won't turn back on. I've tried doing fix permissions in rom manager and cwm. I tried reflashing the same rom via cwm, and the issue still sticks. I have yet to try Odin and don't really want to. Any ideas?

To add on, the only fix I have for now is to remove the battery and manually reboot. Everytime I do this the battery will drop from anywhere to 5% - 20% sometimes the battery will slowly rise up again.

Yesterday my Droid Charge running Tweaked 3.2 would not boot, it would get past the samsung logo and start the boot animation and then turn off. Booting into recovery, several things were not mounting, was not able to wipe Dalvik cahce, only regular cache.
When I try to ODIN back to stock with PIT, it always fails on movinand.bin
I used Samsung PSTLite as well with the same result, failing on movinand.bin
I have tried flashing to ED1 and EP4.
I can flash ROMS such as Tweaked that do not have movinand.bin, but the phone does not start up at all afterwards.
Download mode still works.
What can I do??

What am I supposed to do after re PIT'ing? (which I have done, sucessfully)
Then flash any ROM, probably a stock one. Make sure the MD5 is good. Tell us your exact process for Odin-ing something.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
This is what I have been doing the whole time, same result.
I know my process for ODIN'ing to be correct, battery in, SD card out, PDA checked only.
Its something other than that, I've flashed return to stock many times in ODIN before...
Is there something else I can do besides simply ODIN'ing, as I've said, I've tried ODIN and PST Lite, both failing at movinand.bin
When flashing straight to for example Tweaked, it works fine, as there is no movinand.bin
At this point, it does not even show the samsung logo anymore, the screen just quickly flashes for a moment and then turns off. Download Mode is still working though. Recovery does not boot either.
Correction, CWM does boot, but none of the partitions are mountable.
Umm, The same exact thing happen to me couple of weeks ago, I got tons of error about mounting. I know I am not helping, but I gonna say my case anyway. I tried PIT (repartition) several times, didn't work! It was random! it worked one time, and I was able to flash the pit, but when I tried to flash the EP4D didn't work! I only was able to get to the home 2 times and got tons of force-closing warnings. I have insurance, so I got a replacement. I hope you are covered as well! Just wanted to share
A fail at movinand indicates a corruption at a hardware level. I've actually pulled mine out of death (had the same issue once upon a time) just by spamming PST over and over again but I seem to be the only one who had ever succeeded in that. You're probably going to have to end up getting a new device but hey, they won't be able to tell you rooted.

At this point it won't even matter. My phone broke like this and I got it switched in on the last day of warranty (luckily), and that was in August.
one last check:
have you tried using a different USB cord/USB port/different computer? I, along with many others, have experienced issues when flashing via odin with a bad cord/port (even though it had worked before). when I switched cords, it worked. but this mostly happens when the computer/ODIN fails to recognize the phone.
also, I did not remove the SD card in any of my flashings. I think once, I did remove the battery just to get the phone into download mode.
oh, and another option could be the kernel/partition/boot animation you were last on. I would recommend to try to make sure you are on RFS with stock FP5 before flashing anything.
but i suspect kvswim is probably right.
hope this helps.
ok, thanks for the help guys. I'm quite sure I dont even have a warranty on my phone, so that sucks. Might try to go into Verizon and see what happens anyway.
Do you think its worth sending it to MobileTechVideos for them to debrick, or is this outside of what they do, since it still can go into Download mode...
