DJ05 "officially" Fascinate ROM released by xda

Ok so i have voodoo lag fix but the thing that worries me is the process to get rid of it. the thread on xda says i will lose everything. Define everything i though it would just flash the phone to stock kernel not get rid of programs and contacts and such?? Does anybody have a clear cut guide for this.

Edit*** I did a backup through clockwork. Would it now be safe to flash back to stock then apply DJ05 then restore via clockwork
 
Restoring your nandroid backup will only hurt you... Make sure your contacts are synced with Google; your apps are also backed up with Google. Once you flash the new ROM you will have to set everyhin back up
 
Apps are automatically synced when you get them through the market. Also, you can download AppBrain from the market, and that will sync your apps as well. As for your contacts, load them all into Gmail (on the site) and everytime you sync your Gmail account to your phone, your contacts will sync
 
I c. Good looks there kind sir so then after this point so i use the manual or automatic uninstaller method for removing voodoo or can you use the disable lagfix method
 
I'm wondering if this is any different as far as fixes than DJ05 Clean 0.7 and the DJ05 modem I got from IRC a little while back. Going to be flashing shortly to compare. Will post back with results.
 
cool did that and rerooting the phone currently then going to hopefully apply the updates through odin
 
Yea i'm an idiot though my paid ones are there the ones i didn't pay for are all gone though. Which is weird cause they were their for a second and now they are gone. Go figure but the update was worth it.
 
Follow Up

What I did:
Flashed dj05modem (which appears to be the same one I got from IRC before)
Installed DJ05 Stock ROM
Reflashed StupidFast 1.54
Reinstalled Blackmod Enhanced theme

Compared to DJ05 Clean 0.7:
GPS/network signal level seem to be the same (haven't tried other locations)
Update check turns wifi off automatically, then back on when done
Updated versions of stock apps
Added power options from themes don't work (tried multiple themes)
Audio changes in hiddenmenu don't save (bootsound, volume key)
BLN works with BLN Control app
Music Player starts playing as soon as it's launched and pauses when plugging in/removing headphones

Assessment:
I like it enough to rule out the few negatives for my personal setup as I believe the full DJ05 benefits are more present than with Clean 0.7. I can also use stock odexed apps again which is big because the deodexed ones for other ROMS gave me a few issues. I'm happy. I'm keeping it.

Aali1011 As for your question of removing voodoo wiping everything


If you have one of the more recent versions of voodoo here was my experience (which left my phone intact)

1) I used disable_lagfix
2) I flashed the system, kernal, and recovery files with odin from this guys guide
How to Restore you Samsung Fascinate to Factory? ? Nyne Axis
*note* I didn't follow his guide or use the pit file, just grabbed those three files from there.

I would expect to use the voodoo uninstaller and follow his guide completely only if you ran into problems doing it the way I did it above.

3)at this point my phone seemed stock... since i flashed the recovery as well... clockwork recovery was also gone (this is what i wanted pure stock). the system image he had there was old so I updated via OTA back to DI01.

4) updating was a success, but I had to reroot at that point.

everythings golden and (again) I did not use the voodoo uninstaller program or the pit file. just the disable_lagfix and the system/kernal/recovery images.
i suspect the voodoo uninstaller or the pit file thing are what wipe your phone. Idk though. I'm sure a factory wipe after all of that would just be for good measure and what not... I didn't though. Ive had bad luck with nandroid / Titanium restores. they always seem to break something (like backup assistant telling me my pin is invalid even though its not after a TBU restore) so I hate using backups
 
I have Odin up (phone is rooted) and have downloaded the djmodem.tar. When I click on PDA, it will not find this file in the zip or just the regular modem.bin file either. Any ideas? It will show a lot of other files and kernels, but not the .tar zip.
 
Got it figured out. Scared me without the boot up Android. Thought I bricked it up reboot looking at a dark screen. Everything works great!
 
Ahhh this is so beautiful, GPS works within seconds!
Everything works exceptionally well.
Only bummer is having to set everything back up but I don't even care.
:D
 

They give 2 mirrors for each file for download options. If one doesn't work, try the other.

Ps. The first 2 links you posted work fine for me if I click on them here. If you can't get the kernel to download, you can get any DJ05 one from ROM Manager or other sources. I personally use geeknik's StupidFast v1.54 with no issues.

For some reason, Wifi won't work now. It is enabled, I am connecting to networks, but nothing is showing up. Everything else works great. Any ideas?
