Dragon Kernel 2.6 - With Voodoo Sound

Normal: http://www.tabbal.net/files/Dragon-Kernel-Voodoo-v2.6.zip
OC: http://www.tabbal.net/files/Dragon-Kernel-Voodoo-OC-v2.6.zip
I rebased on the latest source from Samsung, JPX. Yes, it's still i9k based. Hopefully it helps a little with battery and such, won't know till it's been out for a while. The speedmod patch has also been updated, but the OC patch is the same. I also included my backport of the auto-group scheduler patch. So far, both of them are working well for me.
Both kernels are voodoo enabled and will enable voodoo if you don't already have it. If you don't want that, you need to install the voodoo-disable zip before flashing, or just put the disable-lagfix file in place before flashing. If you already have voodoo enabled on your phone, you do NOT need to disable it before flashing these kernels, as long as your current kernel has voodoo recovery (red Clockwork recovery), you are good to go.
Tested on Nero V4, but should work on other Froyo based ROMs as well.
If you are going to try the OC version, please download both of them and have the normal version ready, just in case. You can also use adb push from Clockwork if you can get it booted to recovery. Clockwork also has USB storage you can enable to be able to mount your phone's memory cards from a computer, so that you can put the non-OC version on there if you get stuck.

Nice. How much can the kernel overclock?

This sounds very cool, but it must destroy battery life?

I'm hoping it does, too!

Very nice!!! Thanks supercurio and ttbabbal!

I'm hoping it works out well...curse Samsung for not releasing the 2.2 vibrant source yet, though.

External SD Mount issue
Everything works great but I no longer can mount my external SD card. That's where I keep all my music. Anyone else having this issue?

I will probably get flamed... but what is the difference in the speedmod patch and the dragon kernal. I was a bit confused in understanding what the speedmod patch is and does. Thanks!

any way to make the new 5.1 voodoo sound kernels compatiable with the vibrant JL5 latest source from Samsung, JPx its not for vibrant kernel

Just to clarify, for full Voodoo Sound experience, will we also need to install the Voodoo Sound app from the Market?

That's right. It allows you to control the parameter, which is so far for Vibrant only the headphone amplifier level.

Installed the non-oc version on my vibrant, and downloaded the market "voodoo" app.
Looking forward to hopefully being able to one day control the microphone AGC on the vibrant!

Considering the DoW kernel made my screen shake / flicker and this OC one doesn't, I'd say yes. Voodoo sound is also a nice plus.

What should i do next?

hi, i'm new to android, and just get my captivate(rogers) few hr ago. and upgraded to 2.2
i did some research, mostly saying that 2.2 captivate has screen lag problem
and i know it can be fix, by lagfix, but how do i start?
i know there is some app in market to do that, but is it safe?
what happen if my phone become brick ?
if i use the ryanZA's one click lag fix 2.0, do i need to root my phone?
if yes how do i root? z4root?
please help me. thank you

Go to the Captivate Development section and the go to stickies and then read captivate directory. In there should be a link to a guide to rooting the rogers captivate.

yup! pretty much.. You should also look into the voodoo lagfix as it is much better than oclf.

I would avoid oclf. It is obsolete

i installed oclf already. will it cause problem if i undo it and uninstall ext2 tools?
also, i used SuperOneClick rooted my phone, is it good or bad?
i search voodoo and got this thread [KERNEL] Project Voodoo stable, lagfix.....
is this the right one?
which one should i use XYJS3, XXJPY, XXJPX??

That one would probably be decent. undo ext2 and uninstall oclf. Get neldar's sgs kernel flasher app from market and back up your current kernel, then install the new kernel. if any problems arise, simply restore your previous kernel with sgs kernel flasher. good luck!

thanks....and thank you so much, letting me know oclf is not good....
it take me some time to uninstall it oclf....fail few time when uninstalling ext2 tools...after researching on google, finally undo lagfix, uninstall ext2 tools, uninstall oclf.
and i installed sgs kernel flasher.
and which one should use XYJS3, XXJPY, XXJPX??.
it dont look right for my i896.
sorry for my stupid questions.

Hey guys, I'm also interested in upgrading from OCLF to the voodoo lagfix; how will flashing the kernel give me a performance improvement? Will voodoo work without the kernel flash?
*EDIT*- Also, does voodoo lagfix for the i-897 work for the i-896? I'm on Rogers.

i flashed to the firebird. works well score around 1450~1589

[Q] Darkys 8.1 question (humour me - im a bit new to this!)

I flashed this rom yesterday (after 8.0 wipe) for 2 reasons. Firstly as a path to get to v9, but also to take advantage of the voodoo sound improvements. This is where im lost.. i thought it came as part of the rom, but cant find any trace of it...
how do i find / enable it???
Cheers in advance
Simon

ASK Darky i dont know what he puts in his rom one would expect Darky to be able to tell you .
Or SEARCH VOODOO SOUND
jje

Thanks for your patience.

Download Voodoo control app from market.

Its part of the kernel not the rom ;p Darky just uses a kernel that implimented it. Any froyo rom can have voodoo sound as long as you flash a kernel that implimented it.

does that kernel support voodoo sound? by the look of it it doesnt, if that is the case you need to flash a kernel that does support it(most)...and then all will be good...go to the thread for that kernel and in #1 or 2 it should state the kernel spec

If u want kernel with voodoo, you must flash a JVQ or JVR, because all kernel's are on new source's and for 2.3.4 no for 2.3.3.
For JVQ/R are a lot of kernel's with voodoo sound support

I just installed voodoo control plus and now it works but i have one last question. Now i have 2 voodoo controls apps. One of them have to delete ?
P.s : for voodoo lagfix where i can find it ?

Turn on the Voodoo Control App, then you see at down Lagfix Control, or something like this, and Lagfix status: if enable ext4, if disable rfs only.

...i'm so nervous... i'm getting this message if i stay and do nothing on application, what to do ?

[Q] What hacks can I put in a rooted stock JW4 rom?

Just upgraded my I9000 to 2.3.6 JW4 and added a rooted kernel.

Stuff like Voodoo sound, BLN, etc. (links to the corresponding threads would be nice).

Voodoo Sound Plus doesn't need kernel support. Just having root is enough, though it's a paid app.
