re:

Boot into recovery and use the Fix Permissions feature. Sometimes this will fix problems with force closing. Best of luck to you.

If that doesn't work you can follow this thread from XDA on returning to completely stock if you wish, but it shouldn't be necessary. I'd just try reinstalling the apps if the permission fix doesn't solve it.

Odin Restore files to get you to stock

how do i boot into recovery? sorry. have only had my droid about a week. im starting to pick stuff up. i feel like if i can start from scratch i can get it right. i also want to try to fix the problem with out starting over first. i feel like i can learn more that way. btw i tried the recovery thing from xda and still didnt work. it didnt recover anything. still had the same system i had before.

Power off, hold both volume buttons down and power back on. This will put you in recovery. From here you want to select "apply: update.zip" which will take you into CWM recovery. Select "fix permissions"

 

[gunnermike53]

it wont select. i highlight aply update.zip and use the power button to select it and nothing happens.

 

[gunnermike53]

btw, what will happen if i select wipe data/factory reset at this point?

 

[gunnermike53]

the home button is the selector. it says file not found. how awsome is that?

 

[gunnermike53]

i reran the clockwork install and the same thing. file not found

 

[gunnermike53]

i reran clockwork mod through odin. i did the stock recovery in the xda forum and i still dont have the update.zip.

If you want help, you need to say exactly what you did to your phone. Which Voodoo kernel, and how you uninstalled. Might be best to post in the xda forums.

Can you install anything from the market?

There is an update.zip in this thread if you want to try putting that on your sd

i followed the instructions in the how to root thread. clicked on the links at the bottom for voodoo. i can install programs from the market. i can uninstall super user and reinstall but it continues to force close.

 

[NOsquid]

How did you uninstall voodoo?

Do your root apps still work despite the su problems?

 

[gunnermike53]

i did the disable thing "disable_lagfix" file in the voodoo folder. i realize this does not uninstall voodoo, however there is no longer a voodoo folder on my sd card.

 

[gunnermike53]

none of my su apps work

 

[NOsquid]

How are you installing superuser? Dirrk's one click?

You did the disable file, then reboot (this took a while?), then back into recovery and flashed a non voodoo kernel? Which one?

 

[gunnermike53]

that is exactly what i did. at first i did not flash a kernal. after i crapped my pants when my phone wouldnt start, i got myself together and installed the stock app from the xda forum. and my phone started working again, just with the problems mentioned here.

 

[NOsquid]

What is the stock app you say you installed? You got your Voodoo kernel from Dirrk's thread here?

 

[NOsquid]

So wait, you say your phone wouldn't start, did you pull the battery during the voodoo disable?
