The Title says it all, people. Lol
I've been trying to flash my phone all the way back to DI01. Every single time I try to flash the DI01.tar file, my phone's entire screen turns to a solid color. And it's a different color every time. I would watch the progress on ODIN as I'm flashing it and the green bar will move and stop, move and stop. When it stops, I watch my phone and I see the little blue loading bar move some. It does that for a good while, right before it gets to the MOVINAND part, that screen goes purple. Or green. Or blue. Or Yellow. A different color every time. I just unplug my phone and flash CWM back in and boot back up into KBCR.
Is it because my phone is using a Voodoo kernel?
No matter how many times I re-download the file and flash each one, it doesn't want to work. Perhaps my phone is on it's last leg?
What is the problem?
 
Wow, I've never heard of that before... The kernel shouldn't matter with ODIN, so I'm not sure what's going on. Have you tried redownloading the DI01 file?
 
Please say you were using the PDA button and not the Phone button.... ?

I'd guess he was, since he said he could reflash CWM and boot into KB, but have you ever heard about something like this before?
 
Yeah, I was definitely using the PDA button. Don't worry, guys. Lol. But I've tried redownloading DI01 and get the same results. So, maybe try flashing DL09?

Odin DL09 and use the pit file here http://adbdev.com/danknub/atlas_v2.2.pit-Put this in Pit

Put this in PDA http://adrynalyne.us/files/stuff/CI500_VZW_DL09_ECLAIR.tar.md5

Do that at the same time DL09 Eclair file in PDA and the pit file in pit and click re-partition as well its a box in options. Good luck This should work let me know!

Sweet, thanks so much!
I already have the DL09 Tar file already on my flash drive. I just copied it to my computer. could I just use that one with the PIT file?

LOL Your welcome buddy! :) :) did u go from :'( to :) ? hehe glad to help
 
But seriously, thank you so much for helping me out. I would've never thought of using a PIT file. Lol. I never have before.
I wanted to get that ED04 download because of the call connectivity. I always have my girlfriend get mad at me because my phone keeps cutting out. And it never rings. I just have a random voicemail pop up on my status bar and the voicemail she usually leaves is pretty angry. So I NEED this update. Lol.
 
[MODEM][ODIN][CWM]DL09, EA28, ED01, ED03, ED04 modems without ridiculous 100MB OTAs - xda-developers Try that link flash in CWM the one that says Dl09 to ED04 that should save u the time of no OTA!!! havent tried it yet, but Lttlwing16 says it works

Worked perfectly for me! I oden'd the DL09 modem, fully booted the phone and checked to make sure I had the DL09 modem. Booted into CWM 3.x, cleared both caches, flashed the DL09 to ED04 patch, clear both caches again and rebooted.

I don't know if this is a fluke, but I've never had three bars in my house since I've had this phone. It's always been one bar or no bars. I haven't had any bad experiences with any of the radios I've tried since I've become a flashing fool, never really noticed much of a difference between them, but I've just never seen three bars in my house before as I'm getting on ED04.

I agree, did this process last night...the whole phone in general is snappier and faster...GPS, Calls, signal...all great
