I flashed i9000 on phone in odin and i got issues!

No not yet. I'm around working on other projects for the Site. I have backed off the fascinate forums because I think we have a lot of talent there and I'm not needed so much. But as soon as I get mine fixed ill be back with some new packages :)

I have 3 hds on my comp...I have put post 43 on all three drives and also put it on a flash drive. Don't have a printer, but if I did would print and save in a safe place.

:)
 
I guess I had to try...

I flashed a stock ED01 ROM that I thought was supposed to be for returning to stock on a Fascinate to recover from incorrectly going from Voodoo to non-Voodoo. To make a long story short, after rebooting I saw a boot screen for the i9000. I knew this was bad and wrong. I have spent two days crawling the internet before I stumbled across this thread offering the most promise so far. I have attempted Adrynalyne's process for it to only hang at 32% on the Heimdall step, step 5. I have PM'ed Adryn, but decided to post here as well just in case. I have the OG Droid luckily to fall back on but was really liking the speed and size of the Fasciante. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Me too?

Lots of convoluted bullcrap.

I gave him an Odin to use (similar to the DI01 all in one), and we flashed via Heimdall. Then we repartitioned and reinstalled through Odin.

Doesnt sound like it took long, but we tried many different things. That was ALMOST a brick.

Adrynalyne, it sounds like you're the only person who can help me too, then.

I did pretty much the same thing as CompGuy - I flashed my i500 to an i9000 firmware and used the 512 PIT (all from SamFirmware.com). After I realized nothing there was for North American phones, I panicked...it did, however, seem quite content to run on some Austrailian provider's ROM at the time.

Once I realized my mistake, I tried flashing it back - I've tried EVERYTHING under the sun (most of it your threads on XDA) but nothing seems to be working. I've finally gotten it to a point where it's running the EB16 SuperClean 2.9 with CWR3, but I'm still showing 0.00b internal memory. I seem to be able to move between most of the ROM's you mention, but it hangs on anything which contains MOVINAND.bin. I cant mount my SDCARD from CWR3, and I'm just about at wits end.

I know you're terribly busy (and popular to boot), but if you can find your way to helping me get this squared away, I'll be putting $20 towards your next case of brew. :)

Please PLEASE let me know!!

Thank you!


UPDATE: I found your walkthrough 2 pages after the above-mentioned quote.

I have gotten through the HEIMDALL part fine, and am now in the ODIN part. Two issues to mention:

1> ODIN is stuck about 75% of the way through the "MOVINAND.bin" file, which I noticed was not used in the HEIMDALL flash.
2> After the HEIMDALL flash, I did not get any errors about wiping - in fact, I was not able to boot into recovery at all.

I know I could flash with ODIN using your DI01 package with the MOVINAND.bin file removed, but I'm sure I'll still be at 0.00b internal space, which is my biggest problem. Oh, and to bolster my problems, when I have CWR3 recovery loaded, I cant mount my SD card to install updates..

Any guesses?

If you can flash superclean 2.9 I don't think you need to do hiemdall. You just need to flash this recovery CWM-recovery-all-3-30-fix in ODIN. You can't use CWM 3.0 with superclean as it is in Amend script which requires the recovery I just listed. After you flash that in ODIN, put the battery back in, but don't power up your phone. Hold the volume down, volume up, and power buttons until you see the samsung logo flash twice. When you see the samsung logo flash for the second time, let go of all three buttons. This will take you directly to CWM. Scroll down to voodoo, hit the power button, scroll to disable lag fix, power button, then menu soft key once, power key to reboot and you should have your internal memory back

I'm trying what you said, but when I get into the recovery, it doesn' have a VooDoo option....it's blue, and at the top says "Android System Recovery (3e)", and the only options are reboot, apply update.zip, wipe data/factory, and wipe cache.

I'm pretty sure I'm not getting into the right recovery....I'm holding VOL UP, VOL DOWN, and POWER until the Samsung logo comes up the second time...same happens if I hold it until it goes AWAY for the second time, but then it comes up again and goes to the same recovery....

What the front door am I doin' wrong?!

Thanks!

Did you flash the CWM-all file in ODIN first? That recovery should stick with superclean 2.9.2. Make sure you flash the cwm file in odin, don't let the phone boot, then do the three button salute. If did that last time, for some reason you have a stock kernel and you let your phone boot up before doing the three button salute. After you flash the cwm file in ODIN, unplug the usb cord before you put the battery back in, then do the three button salute.

Yeah, I made sure to unplug the USB and do the 3 button salute every time....I learned the hard way not to leave the USB in (I've been trying everything under the sun 8 hrs a day for the past 3 days....)

Is there any ROM you can direct me to that will work with the CWM3-VooDoo here - [RECOVERY][ODIN][4.22.11]Red Voodoo CWM 3.x UPDATED 4.24.11 - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum? THAT recovery I can get in to reliably, and it has the voodoo lagfix enable/disable stuff that I believe you're talking about...


By the way, I'm feelin' kinda froggy, so if you can tell me how your partitions are configured on your Fascinate with "parted -l" and "mount" commands from the ADB shell, I am at the point where I'm willing to risk doing damage to this thing, so I either get it working, or no longer have to worry about it....LOL

You can flash Community ROM, Evil Fascination, MIUIWiz, CM7, and Kaoscinate from CWM 3.0. I'll get back to you on the partitions.

Thanks...I'm trying Community now...

Just out of curiosity, if this works for me, I can just use the DISABLEVOODOO in CWM3 and boot, and I should see the memory, no? Or do I need to have a Voodoo kernel installed to make a difference?

If I DO need a Voodoo kernel, can you tell me where to get one?

PS - hold off on the partition thing for now. :)

Thanks for all of your help, Landshark...I really appreciate it. :)

A voodoo kernel is included in Community ROM - Nemesis2all's OTB kernel v 1.4

Ok, so I found this thread, which I believe is my solution:

[HOWTO] Fix for corrupted internal SD-Card - xda-developers

When I LS my internal SD, I get unreadable results.

So, I'm trying to perform this fix, but apparently, I need something rooted, and with Busybox in the ROM (my current ROM is refusing the LS command).

So, any idea where I can get and ODIN'able ROM that's rooted with Busybox preinstalled? Or any idea how I can get it on there, so I can carry out the commands in the post? I was able to do it yesterday, but I was at work and had a bunch of ROM's I was trying, and now I'm home and have a totally different set of ROM's to choose from. In this process, I've downloaded about 8GB of data, and it's getting hard to keep track of. :)

Any pointers? :)

Thanks LS!


EDIT: As I read more and more through the referred thread, I started to see a LOT of those people are using I9000's....accidentally flashing into an I9000 ROM with the 512.PIT is what got me IN to this mess, so I'm kinda hesitant to try any of this.

Also, here's what my LS looks like when I adb shell into it:

So, I'm thinking my internal memory needs wiped and redone...I cant seem to get any ROM to boot all the way now, so I'll try ANYTHING you got up your sleeve....

You don't need your internal memory wiped and redone. You just need your partitions repaired.
Put this in the PDA section of ODIN:
http://adrynalyne.us/files/stuff/CI500_VZW_DL09_ECLAIR.tar.md5

Put this in the PIT section of ODIN:
MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Look to the left of the PIT button and put a checkmark in the re-partition box, hit the start button. Let it do it's thing. When done, close ODIN, pull USB cord from phone, put battery back in phone, reboot phone. Phone should boot up to stock DL09 (Eclair) and your internal memory should be back. Then we will discuss how to get you to where you want to go.

And please stop looking for solutions in threads or sites for the i9000 version of the Fascinate. Our phone is the I500 Fascinate. The i9000 is used in Europe and is on GSM. Our I500 is used in the US and is on CDMA. Completely different networks and therefore different software.
