[Q] Voodoo Kernel (with lagfix) on JVK - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i installed JVK with bootloaders few weeks ago. Now my phone became very laggy. So I want to install the Voodoo kernel with lagfix (I already installed CF root).
What i couldn't find is whether the latest 5.5.3 release of Voodoo kernel supports this JVK firmware or not. if not how can i get some other kind of lagfix on JVK?
28/03/2011 : 5.5.3 release: includes Voodoo sound v7 :definite fix for the DAC direct call issue with much better audio path management, lagfix code updated.

PDA: I9000XXJVK
Kernel version: CL75655

Would you not be better waiting and installing official release of 2.3.3 first .

Do you think the official release would be very different from this leaked one? i mean in terms of speed and lag?

[Q] Kernel compatibility

Hi,
Can I flash a froyo kernel to an eclair rom and vice-versa?
Will I loose/get fonctionalities?
What I want to do:
flash a 2.6.29 kernel(eclair) to a JPK rom to run voodoo on JPK (I will propably loose some fonctionality since its an *old* kernel)
flash a 2.6.32.9 rev6 (asian froyo dxJP1 kernel) to a JPK rom (to get better battery life and smoother flash since I tried JP1 for a week and it was stable and fast)
flash a voodoo modified kernel to any 2.2 rom to see what happens (but I am a little afraid to flash an oc/uv kernel to a rom not designed for it since it could maybe, under some circumstance damage the phone...)
Any ideas or tests already run?
I am gonna try the JP1 kernel on then JPK rom tomorrow to see if it works and if I got improvements from the JP1...

And you will get a nice paperweight instead of your phone.
Pretty sure that won't work but if you have 3 button rec you should be fine.

I got the 3 button combo (thanks to richthofen and dadonali and others) so if the kernel is not supported I can flash back my original kernel?

Your Phone wont boot, but try it.
2.1 and 2.2 are different worlds.
franklin01, this thread belongs in the Q&A section, not in development. Take a moment and read the "STOP!! Before you post, read this NOW!!" thread at the top of both of these sections, it has clear guidelines for proper thread placement.

Early Gingerbread kernel selection. What kernel to choose dillema. Available options.

Hmmm...I'm sitting and thinking what kernel to use with JVK...
Supercurio's?
Hacked Lagfix/Ext4 Samsung Galaxy S Gingerbread - JVK
A well known programmer stands behind this kernel... Stable for sure...
Con: CWM 2, or maybe it's a pro for now?
He updated the kernel, you can now connect via adb in recovery.

Chainsfire's?
CF-Root 2.6
It's more like a stock kernel with root option.
- The kernel is fully stock and taken from the original firmware, with just the following added:
- Root
- Superuser 2.3.6.1
GINGERBREAD ( CF-Root >= 2.4 versions, JVK and newer )
---- Busybox v1.16.2androidminimal (from CWM)
---- Integrated CWM 3.0.0.5 / RFS

DamianGTO's?
DamianGTO Ultimate Ginger Kernel (Beta 3)
- Optimized kernel tweaks.
- Low memory killer minfree settings (60MB).
- Deadline schedueler (Optimized).
- Touchscreen sensitivity (High)
- CWM 3.0
- Auto Root (Busybox and Superuser)

The last two have CWM 3 injected, while curio's kernel using CWM 2.
CWM 3 has orange font color (speedmod-green, voodoo-red).
CWM 3 can be used to flash only updates.zip that contain edify scripting, so you won't be able to flash ie. current speedmod kernel in cwm version, but now Hardcore didn't come up with his JVK kernel yet.
You may find out if an update zip is CWM compatible by looking into META-INF\com\google\android\. If there are the below files then you may flash it in CWM 3:
updater-script
update-binary
In old ammend script updates you'll only see update-script file.
The only having sorta optimisations is DamianGTO's. But... I would love to hear your opinions. Which kernel is best for now, when no gingerbread kernel sources hasn't been released yet and no real hacking can be involved...
I vote for damian's kernel. Supercurio's kernel was unstable for me, but faster ofc. Using now damian's beta 2
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Damian GTO is the best so far...
Wouldn't it be a good idea then to use the damian kernel for daily use and use the SGS kernel flasher to go back to voodoo when you need CWM2 for ROM upgrade....?
I have to vote for supercurio's lag fix off. Stable for me and smoother scrolling

Anybody wrote opinion about CF-Root 2.6 , please ?
Regards
I'm using Supercurio's kernel with lagfix enabled - haven't had any speed (surprise) or stability issues

CF-Root is just for rooting and CWM.
Supercurio's with ext4. Some things (market, for example) are MUCH faster than without ext.
With JVK I went with CF-root (for rooting, and a CWM3-only update) and then Supercurio's for general usage afterwards.
So far I've done the same with the new JVB-firmware and it seems to work very well. Any opinions on this now that we have a new firmware to play with?
Supercurio's still the best? Or does Damian's have an edge in other areas which Supercurio's doesn't address?

[Q] Would Voodoo Lagfix works on Gingerbread 2.33, Gingerbread.DXJV9 ?

Hi everyone,
Need help on installing Voodoo Lagfix on my Sgs.
My device:
GTI9000
Firmware: 2.3.3
Build Number: Gingerbread.DXJV9
I had Voodoo Lagfix installed on Froyo, disabled it via Documentation (official Website) before I update the firmware. Somehow it didn't work after I updating to Gingerbread. Is there a way for me to re-active the Lagfix? Or is there an updates for Lagfix for gingerbread lately? Couldn't find the download link from the official website..
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks.
The Voodoo kernel that you used for the lagfix on 2.2 isn't compatible with Gingerbread and is removed when you flash to it. Supercurio has a new kernel for ext4 on GB : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=975349
There are a few other kernels around which have ext4("lagfix") supported in them(eg CFRoot, Fugumod)
The Voodoo lagfix won't work without the Voodoo kernel. When you upgraded to Gingerbread, you obviously reverted to the new GB stock kernel, and not Voodoo.. You can find several lagfix supporting kernel in the Android Development section here..

Appreciated your reply
According to the link, there are few options, which one do you think would suit Kernel version: 2.6.35.7- I9000DXJV9?
Sources from the link:

Voodoo-test-6.0-Gingerbread-JVH-GT-I9000-odin-pda.tar
Voodoo-test-6.0-Gingerbread-JVH-GT-I9000-unsigned-update.zip
/!\ Due to not up-to-date kernel sources given by Samsung, there is an incompatibility with the Front Facing camera.
I invite you to send new source release inquiry to Samsung open source site.

Once again, thanks mate
I would suggest you go with SpeedMOD over basic Voodoo. You can enable lagfix from CWM Recovery
Thanks dude, may try it later

Which Kernel am i running?

Im on GingerReal but im not sure about which kernel im running. This is what it says under kernel version:
2.6.35.7.I9000XWJVH-CL184813
[email protected] #Voodoo
Sat May 14 22:49:50 CEST 2011
Can anyone tell me what kernel it is please?
The reason i want to is because i want to update to 5.2 GingerReal but it doesnt support Voodoo Sound and i want it. So which kernels support voodoo sound that i can use on GingerReal?
You're with the hacked gingerbread voodoo kernel of supercurio. That's what's used in the GingerReal ROMs. You can generally use almost any other JVO kernel for the latest version of GingerReal coz almost all of the kernels have one or another version of Voodoo sound. And all kernels support voodoo sound but not all developers implement it. You can just buy Voodoo Sound Control Plus app and you'll always have the latest version of Voodoo Sound with any kernel you use.

Thanks for the reply. I take it that all kernels apart from speedmod have voodoo control?

Various kernels have Voodoo sound built into them , they say in the features list if you want to check. Voodoo control Plus though inserts the sound module into any kernel(even stock kernels) and as you update the app you get the latest voodoo sound module
try semaphore kernel for gingerbread...it has CF-Root + voodoo sound v9 + OC/UV + BLN
I'm sure if you had looked in the gingereal thread you would of found your answer! Worth a thought
