I d'loaded a voodoo sound kernel from the marketplace. i flashed the kernel through red recovery and everything seemed fine at first. My screen completely changed to the screen with the galaxy s and gt i9000 and heard what sounded like a lady talking but could not clearly hear what was being said. since then, it has been in that state. I have tried to connect my samsung fascinate to my computer countless times and it keeps giving me the not recognize error. idk what to do. If i cant get into odin, how can i restore the files. Has the voodoo kernel corrupted my phone? I just dont know what to do. Please advise.

can you get into download mode?

Also the screen says GTi9000 on it?

**Trumastah** · 02-23-2011, 04:45 PM

yes i can. but my phone wont connect to my comp. i have the correct drivers installed as well. I said in the earlier post that my screen read Gt i9000 actually i was mistaken. the screen shows samsung logo for about 10 seconds, and then reboots again. I can put the phone in download mode, but it is not recognized by my comp or odin.

So the battery is out phone plugged in and in download mode but no yellow com port in odin?

First, grab my DI01 All in One. You need an all inclusive package.

You will need odin3 v 1.30. Gonna assume you have it, considering the mess you are in.

You also need Heimdall.
There is a readme in the windows version zip if you get stuck. Drivers must be installed for it as well.

You also need a copy of the samsung galaxy s usb drivers, because Heimdall will remove them when you use it.

You will also need a PIT file from me:

Steps:

1. Install Heimdall and drivers.
2. Put phone in download mode and plug it in to usb cable.
3. Unzip the Odin file. 7zip can do this, but will give an EOF error. Ignore the error.
4. Choose each section in Heimdall and add the appropriate file, including PIT. Check repartition. Primary boot loader is boot.bin and secondary boot loader is sbl.bin.
5. Start. It should finish and will likely be in a reboot loop with a crap ton of failed errors on wiping data.
6. Reinstall Samsung USB drivers for Odin. This may require a PC reboot.
7. Put phone back in download Mode and start Odin, making sure its detected.
8. Load the entire Odin package, not extracted into the pda section of Odin. Include the PIT file. CHECK repartition.
9. Run the process.

If all goes well, you should be back to stock, crappy Eclair 2.1.

i will give it a go right now. will post up in a few.

**Trumastah** · 02-23-2011, 06:54 PM

i followed the tutorial to the letter. i am at the part where i put the phone in download mode and run zadig.exe file. when i go to the area where it says list all choices, it does not show samsung usb composite device. i downloaded the correct samsung driver files and it still does not detect my phone. I believe i am t totally screwed.

I would try getting my hands on a different computer

**Trumastah** · 02-23-2011, 07:06 PM

Droid, i appreciate your help. I am on my way to work right now. I will use the comp there and post back up. Is there any way my port on my phone is bad. I really don't think it is, but could it be damaged.

**Trumastah** · 02-23-2011, 07:18 PM

I don't believe it is. i am pretty good with phones and other things. I will post up after i try another comp at work. Thanks again.

The voice you heard was the voodoo lady. It usually says something to the effect of "converting blah partition. x minutes remaining" and can take a while before the phone boots up. I'm a bit confused as to what you downloaded though. Where did you get the kernel from? Which version of Froyo are you on DL30 or EB01? If it's EB01, you can try jt's kernel at the link below. iirc it's ok to flash voodoo over voodoo but nonvoodoo over voodoo without first disabling is no bueno so you should be ok.

And is anyone else getting 504 gateway time out errors out the wazzooo lately?
