Dude Thanks!! I Splashed Myself a Good One!! lol Thanks

I just noticed in your sig that you are running rav recovery image, can I make the suggestion of going to cm recovery 1.4 so you have a recovery console, the image you are running is meant for a device that has no keyboard, while it has some great options, the console is what will save your ass in the future

i second this motion

does this count as bricked?

i was running sensehero 1.4, i decided to try out wesgarner's beta WGBuild9 for him. it booted and all, there were some bugs. i replied to his thread and then restored my nandroid from before hand. it just sat at the initial boot logo, not either of the animations, the carrier one. i waited quit a while and then pulled the battery. tried a wipe and reboot, no dice. tried fastboot erasing system, data then reflash, still sits at boot logo. no i am watching the logo while waiting to see if a different rom (cyans latest stable) will boot.. any ideas? recovery and fastboot still work fine.

If you can get into bootloader, or recovery, you're not completely bricked.

u r not bricked if u can get into recovery and fastboot, just perform your nandroid restore, wipe and u should b good, u might have to pull the sd card and reboot without it

Since you have so many posts I'm surprised you would post in the wrong forum. Anyway since your coming from a hero rom you need to follow these instructions http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Main_Page#How_do_I_upgrade_to_the_latest_CyanogenMod.3F and that includes doing this line "Download the Android 1.6 Recovery Image (it has "-ota-" in the filename): ". Even if you have done it before you must do it again.

What does post have to do with anything?
There were some issues with nandroid that were fixed in the new version, but you must wipe before installing the backup since the ext is also backed up.

You should have wiped and what method did you do to install the wesenger rom?

If you didn't flash the 1.6 recovery image then that's your problem. It's not the same thing as RA's or Cyan's so your not overwriting those recovery images. You must flash it first then the rom all without rebooting.

I've been getting these problems a lot lately for whatever reason. Anyways, I fixed it every time by wiping, then flashing the official HTC 1.6 OTA update zip. You'll probably have to dig a bit for it, since the links appear dead on the HTC support site. From there, you can flash a custom ROM no problem.

im just amazed we havnt been given a nice big REPORT button to stop people posting in the wrong place

lol i can only imagine, i just panicked. and the forums are so crowded. also when you search it doesn't link to the posts with results just the threads with post with results, would help if search worked better. just a thought imho
someone can delete this, i would but there is no delete for me?

When you search, there IS an option to give results as either threads or individual posts. I suggest taking a couple minutes just to play around with the advanced search screen... it's surprisingly powerful, but most noobs don't use it. The little drop down Search is useless in comparison.

Voodoo lagfix problem

This is my first post so since I need 10 to post in Developers forum I have no choice but put this here. I downloaded the link form the voodoo development thread here on page 90 I think. It will not let me post the link till I have 8 posts. Too many rules if you ask me. I have a Captivate with 2.2-update1, I897UCJH7, 2.6.29 kernl, Eclare.UCJH7.
Is the above link workable on my phone. I have put it into my root folder. I am rooted with z4root. I have used Odin before and tried different ROMS and went back to stock to just try The Voodoo Lag Fix with the original ATT System.
My problem is when I put the download into my root and change it to update zip. Then use the 3 button operation to go into Download which works. Still when I go to re-install packages it says failed.
When I look on my computer with the root drive it shows that the file is showing has update.zip. When I use the File app on the phone it is showing has update.zip.zip....Is this the problem. I tried to change it to just update .zip but it will not allow me because the file already exists.
I have ROM Manager and Titanium Backup and Super-User rights so I know I am rooted.
Thank You for any help in advance.

there are threads about update.zip.zip, delete the original update.zip, rename .zip.zip to .zip. Then reboot into recovery mode and say reinstall packages. I haven't done this specifically for lag fix but the double .zip is a problem others have had and posted about.
BTW, welcome to XDA developers. Don't worry, you'll hit 10 posts in no time.

If your using jh7 then you are on eclair my friend.... you need to find the version of voodoo that supports eclair.... the voodoo stable kernel that is in the dev section is for froyo and will not work on jh7

Ok..after reading this about 5 times I think I understand what you are doing.
You are trying to flash a clockwork recovery (update.zip) file. If you have not flashed clockwork recovery (using rom manager or downloading the cwm update.zip file ) and flashing using the stock recovery, you cannot install clockwork flashable zips
So, I would:
Go to ur sdcard and delete the update.zip files (all spellings)
Open rom manager and at the top, select flash clockwork
Re download the file u are trying to flash
Turn off the phone
Hold vol up and down, then hold power button for 3 seconds (while still holding vol buttons)
You should now be in clockwork recovery
Select zip file u want to flash

Thank you for the replies.
I went to the Voodoo developers site and I downloaded the ordinal link from there for the Eclair OS. I do have ROM Manager installed but isn't the file in the /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery-update.zip just for the ROM? I will delete it if necessary. But I do have the voodoo zip file that I renamed on the root drive and not in a folder. Besides it being a zip.zip are the interfering with each other?
I am trying to rename .zip.zip to just .zip but it will not allow me to do it. Like I said when my phone is connected to the computer and my drive is mounted it shows it is just a update.zip file. But when I DC the phone and look in the files folder it is there where it is showing update.zip.zip. When I try to rename it to just update.zip it will not allow me too. It keeps saying file already exists has update.zip.
I will do a search for the .zip.zip problem..All I did was search voodoo lag fix in the search here and didn't see anything. My other option is to do it through Odin but I really do not want to reinstall the ROM from there and I never tried the PDA before. It says in the Voodoo website it is not reliable to do it that way.
I also have SDK tools. Is it possible to do has a abd command? Understand I have only been fooling around with rooting for 3 days and I have watched all the videos and have been reading from the Android Central and Android Forums. To me this is the Big Boys Forum where the Developers hang out and I feel a little out of my realm since I am not a programmer or Developer. That is not to say the people on the other forums are not up to standards, because they are way above my pay grade there also......
Again Thank you for the fast replies

If u have already flashed clockwork recovery, then you do not need to rename ANY FILES to update.zip - once you enter clockwork recovery, you navigate to the file you want to flash..
Can you direct us as to what you have downloaded and are trying to install?
Sorry if u have,but I do not see this using xda app

Thanks all I did a search for update.zip.zip and I see what I needed to do. I just named it update and then saw it is a update.zip only file. It is now rebooting and I hear the voice. WIll let you know if all is working...Thanks again for the help

For some reason this Site is overwhelming, guess when I know how to navigate a little better here it will become more natural.

Im stuck at FastBoot mode. Please help!

You should read the cmw ported to lg revolution 4G thread. It has a link to a post that explains how to restore the recovery img and boot into it from an adb prompt. Once in recovery you should be able to restore your backup or the original lg rom. You can also check the irc #lgrevolution on freenode.net to see if any devs are available to help.

This should have been posted in the General section, not the Development section.
If you can boot the phone into HBOOT, then you can flash a new recovery image in FASTBOOT USB mode.
If you have more questions post in the GENERAL section after you have searched.
