So I was messing with my Vibrant 4G and flashed a voodoo color and then it wasn't giving me any signal so I went into Odin and went to go back to stock with the AIO Vibrant Toolbox and totally jacked it up. I am able to get back to the downloading screen and Odin recognizes it but I need to get back to stock.
Hopefully there is a fix already or am I stuck with this like this till someone has something?
If I use the Hawk pit and then the tar for the VUV will that get me going?

Howd you flash a kernal with no custom recovery

I had rooted and also put clockwork recovery on it....I was so hoping you were going to say I could use those two files to get me up and going
I did do a nandroid of my rom before I flashed the voodoo...was working somewhat after voodoo until I tried to use Odin and then got into this mess.
Wish there was a way to just use my nandroid

Ya with the clockwork recovery that was through rom manager...I was actually able to get into clockwork recovery too which is where I flashed that vodoo fix but did a nandroid backup before. Not sure where the nandroid went cause it's not on the memory card

Your the first person I have heard that has a custom recovery on the Vibrant 4G. It's kind of hard to believe.
I would love to help you out more, but I need the truth as to how you messed your phone up.

Alright I'll tell you since I'm the first it seems.
Root - SuperOneclickroot
Then download Rom Manager - Install Clockwork Recovery via menu
Reboots into recovery and select "reinstall packages" it fails so I went onto google and found the "3e recovery installer" script.
That didn't work right off the bat so I did some more reading and then used the superoneclickroot and selected "Shell root" and then ran the 3e recovery installer script again. It worked and then installed clockwork recovery via menu again and rebooted into recovery...selected "reinstall packages" once again, it failed but then did it again and bingo went into Clockwork Recovery.
From there I flashed the vodoo fix I found on the site where it is and then got back into the software but didn't get any service so I went into AIO toolbox and ran reboot to stock or whatever it was and then followed those directions and now I'm where I'm at
Now I know I had a ton of stuff on my memory card but now after messing with Odin and doing what it did I don't have anything on my card but there is like 4gb of space it isn't showing...
**Edit, and to make matters worse is I just bought this on Craigslist so I can't just return it to the store which blows**

Are you able to hard boot into clockwork recovery? If so, I would say try getting into recovery, mount your sdcard, drop bionix 1.3 on it and flash...just to get you operational. Then search around for the stock KB5 Rom, if you cant find it, I will make one and post it just give me 30 mins
Or you can try to flash the dump I uploaded

How would I go about hard booting into clockwork? I've tried holding both volume down and power and releasing when it shows "vibrant" but nothing...
Power down the phone by pulling the battery
Replace the battery and backing. Now hold both volume buttons and the power button.
When you see the vibrant screen, release the power but keep holding the volume buttoms.
When you see yellow texr, release the volume buttons

I wish it was that easy, when I release the power button it just goes to a white screen and then back to "Vibrant" and samsung at the bottom and keeps cycling that no matter how long I hold any buttons down

So then you have a Vibrant not a Galaxy S 4G, because the 4G says "Galaxy S 4G" not "Vibrant"
Anyways, Im not sure how to fix that, I would advise waiting for the official Odin PIT and TAR

Phone doesnt need to be on/booted. Install the apx drivers, take out battery, hold down both volume down/up buttons, plug usb cord into pc/g2x then run the batch file from rom for recovery. This phone is 99.99% unbrickable!

Got a little question, any help would be verrry appreciated, uh I flashed cm9 on my infuse 4g from a red cwm and when I rebooted it got stuck on the samsung boot like it said it does, I battery pulled n retried it but it didnt boot up, so I booted into cwm recov. and it was all messed up, like a scrambled TV channel... I can't see anything, I tried to restore a backup just like from memory but it didnt work, I'm not sure which cwm version is used on cm9, but then I try to put it into odin mode and it doesnt go, can't connect to the cpu, doesnt go into odin mode, jus goes str8 to samsung screen and freezes. Anyone got any ideas? The scrambled cwm, from what I can make out, looks like its the one with the grey background... ne1 kno if thats the recovery cm9 comes with? Maybe I could restore my backup if I knew exactly how many times to press the volume up & down rockers and all that... idk. Again, any input'd b much appreciated

Sounds like you're still on GB bootloader..use Heimdall One Click by Qkster once flashed and return to stock GB rom then repeat procedure with tick mark on Flash Bootloader after that flash Entropy's kernel (all provided in the link) to get into red cwm then you can flashed your ICS rom after that.

Typo...I'm sure you meant he's not on GB boot loaders
Also to use Odin/heimdal you have to go to download mode not recovery
1) pull battery
2) put battery back in
3) hold volume up+down and plug in USB with out pressing power button
4) run Odin/heimdall

Don't remember exactly and don't have a windows computer in front of me
But, plug your phone as if you were going to download mode
Don't unplug it even if it doesn't go to DL mode
Go to "my computer"
I think you go to system properties
There should be a thing under system properties for hardware, drivers or it might be advanced...don't really remember
Locate the infuse under usb ...it will probably be gadget serial, or something like that...to ease the process disconnect all other USB that way only your phone shows up
Double click it that should open up a window of the driver settings
Uninstall the drivers
Unplug your phone, go to the ISET page which is sticked in the dev section and download the infuse drivers (don't use kies...)
Its not necessary but i like to reboot after installing new drivers
Now try to connect to download mode
Good luck, I'll try and clarify those steps later

When I restarted my phone manually my phone stopped showing the rainbow crack and showed the normal splash screen (I was foolishly optimistic) my phone is now stuck at the t mobile splash screen and I haven't been able to get it back into DL mode...

I have tried all of the alternate methods except ADB mode which I don't think i can because the phone wont go past the galaxy S 4g exclusively from t mobile splash screen.
if there is a trick for the ADB method please let me know cause if something is going to work at this point i think that's it.
Well there is hope, your phone is still turning on.
You could see if abd recognizes your phone if you have it. (usually the first things I do is make sure debugging is on when I change things over)
If you know someone with a jig that would be the easiest way but it is 1am.

Is it just me or is fix permission missing from CWM.

I believe koush decided to throw away the fix permissions button in CWM because he said it was largely placebo effect and had no real purpose anymore.

so do you know if external mics work on this Rom?
Ok guys i have flashed near every rom this phone has ever had and never ran into a bootloop problem. So i had CH 10.2 on my phone for 2 days with no hiccups. Then today after letting my phone die completely "battery death" i pluged it in and now it keeps bootlooping and i cant get it into recovery if i hold down volume down + power it loops at the galaxy s 4g starting screen. If i let it go of the power button at the correct time it just bootloops. anyone have any ideas?

The Recovery Is Volume Up + Volume Down + Power Button

Ok if i hold that combo it loops the galaxy s 4g splash screen if i hold the combo then let go of the power button at any time during the splash or right when it turns to black then it just normally boots into the Cyanogen boot screen then sits there spinning for going on 2 hours then i just pull the battery any ideas?

Battery Pull. Hold Vol Up + Vol Down + Power. Whenever The Samsung Galaxy S 4G Splash Screen Comes On, Let Go Of The Power Button And Keep The Volume Buttons Held Down. Should Take You To Recovery

OMG YES!!! I have no idea what i did but i pressed the combo when i plugged it into my computer and it looped the battery screen twice then went straight into CWM recovery did not go through the splash screen like a normal CWM recovery start but whatever i got to remove the rom and flash the new Slim Rom . Anyone have any idea what could have caused this just so i know what to or what not to do in the future ?
Try using adb

To get to CWM recovery on this ROM, simply download 'Quick Boot' application and use it to get to recovery. It works.
Apex launcher crashes as well. I think issue is ROM related. Also, ROM is very heavy, I couldn't find why.
Edit: ROM is snappier after using CM performance features and letting cache do its work.

That's not very helpful if you can't get past the CyanogenMod splash though.

I got through the splash screen on 1st try.
You should check if you worked according to ROM instructions.
I usually always format system as well as wipe everything twice before flashing any new ROM.
I was referring to :
1. the lack of recovery button on power menu.
2. The inability to use hardware keys to get to recovery after flashing this ROM.
Heimdall One-click (in download mode) and try again.
You're right - I missed that option in developer features - it's called 'advanced reboot options'.
I'd suggest you get to download mode - one click heimdall and reflash this ROM after dowble wiping dalvik, cache, and format system.
I've flashed numerous ROMS to my phone before but have never ran into a problem like this.
-I went back to stock
-flashed CM7, as recommended from the OP
-downloaded and flashed CM10.2 but it gets stuck around 75%
I've been on this thread, and the rom thread as well as waiting a bit, hoping to find a solution or it figures itself out. Nothing! Is it unsafe to pull my battery when its at 'Installing update' (75%) for an extended period of time?
Also, i am on CWM 5.0.2.8
Thanks
I flashed it from ICS (Ultragen) and had no problem.
You can try that as well.
