[Q] What hacks can I put in a rooted stock JW4 rom? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just upgraded my I9000 to 2.3.6 JW4 and added a rooted kernel.
Since no kernel with features are available for this firmware, what hacks can I make manually?
Stuff like Voodoo sound, BLN, etc. (links to the corresponding threads would be nice).
Thanks.

Voodoo sound.. Search up in market

Yeh those mods worked a treat for me - I also installed this:

Odex version worked for me - my favourite aspect: landscape home that actually rotates quickly for once
This (and plants vs zombies) is giving me a hard time deciding whether to go back to aokp ics ...
That rom started randomly freezing up on my so restored to a nandroid version with just the mods - still enjoying jw4, contemplating slim ics...

Don't I need a kernel with Voodoo support for this? Or having root is enough?

Voodoo Sound Plus doesn't need kernel support. Just having root is enough, though it's a paid app.
Also consider installing ThunderBolt! for some speed/battery life increase

pantrif13 has some good hacks and themes for jw4

[Q]Looking for a none themed JPM/JP6 w/ voodoo pre6,2e,ect ect ect..

Im looking for a ROM ( or FW flashable from Odin3 ) that features JPM/JP6 w/ voodoo pre6,2e,superuser,busybox,zipaligned,deodexed and no other extra gunk installed.
I've used a ROM with all of the above present but the theme on the ROM hurts my eyes after a while so I need to go back to the stock samsung look.
Same here need a lagfixed froyo rom without any theme, please help.
Same here, just want a pre lag fixed rom with high benchmark scores running 2.2

I already have Voodoo 5 Pre6. Before flashing to Voodoo 5, I flashed CF Root which basically gives me Recovery 2e.
Does that mean, I already have Voodoo 5 & Recovery e2? If yes, I am a happy camper!

[Q] Xcaliburinhand's reorient Kernel advise

So i got the reorient kernel so now i am wondering which of the i9000 rom's to flash? most of the Rom's over there have their own kernels built in so besides Tayutama's i can't find anything to try out
Voodoo/z4 compatibility preferred.
You can use pretty much any one of the roms that are in the i9000 forum. Just flash the rom and then the kernal right away afterwards through recovery mode. Right now im using Darkys raw steel edition v3.0 with reorient.

You may want to follow this thread since you will be using JPM modem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818981 (talks about other options for modems if you have problems with reception) I am currently studying it for possible changes.

May the Force be with you
Why don't you have a lag fix
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Doc doesn't use then because out is fast way it is. I don't like to hassle with voodoo whet you have to disable brite you flash another rom.
Now moved to jpa. Newly out yesterday so not tested yet.

[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.

[Q] Need help understanding modifications

Hello!
I've been trying to find out is it possible to flash roms/mods if I have flashed voodoo kernel? I flashed it few days ago and phone goes like racing car
I'm not completely newbie, but what comes to android hacking... I haven't found out few things like: What's the difference between mods, roms and kernel. Well... For example.. Can I flash tw4 if I've flashed voodoo kernel?
I don't need "how to" answers just I'd like to know more about these things.
Allso.. If someone knows websites telling huge amounts of info about these things please ad those too
Thanks.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
you can install TW4 if you are on a samsung based ROM,
samsung apps will not work with ROMS such as Cyanogen and MIUI.
And you dont need to remove lagfix unless moving ROM or Kernel, if you are just updating to a newer version, its not necessary.
the best place to find your answers is here on XDA, you would be surprised what comes from the search bar
Thank you for the answer.
I tried to find answers with search. Some I found sme I didn't..
I cannot find info about project voodoo's voodoo kernel 5.5. Is it just lagfix and can I flash darky's rom without deleting/uninstalling voodoo lagfix?
I didn't find voodoo on roms list so I think it's not rom?
I'm asking becouse I findout that darkys rom... Well darkys voodoo seems very nice but it uses same kernel modifications as voodoo kernel but has much more modifications (improved gallery etc. etc.) I'm asking this becouse I really like voodoo lagfixs voodoo sound improvements....
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
yeah, voodoo is the kernel.
but darkys roms come with voodoo kernel built in, you can select this using his 'DarkyROM' app found in the market (free), you select what you want, i.e boot animation, theme, kernel, added extras. Hit save and then flash his rom and it will do the rest for you.
If you want to use darkys ROM 9.2 or higher. Flash his resurrection ROM via odin, and that will give you the base package to move upwards
Oh right! Tanks!
It really seems I'm quite newbie
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
we all was at one time, dont worry about it.
The key thing when doing any sort of modifications is be sure you know what your doing. and always have a backup plan.
That's right. It's why I have not done rom flashes or anything else before getting enough info. Tough I've heard that!"while doing you'll learn" but sgs is too expensive to do such experiences.
Thanks for all the answers!

CF-Root kernel.
Don't use cf-root kernel. JVH uses changed RFS filesystem. For now best method is using voodoo kernel for JVH

Yep, no need for kernel, as long as you're rooted you just need Voodoo Control Plus, supercurio's made it easier than ever to get great sound, buy the app, support the legend

The free version requires a custom kernel. The paid version does not. Read the description of the apps in the market for more information. Be sure to rate the apps 5* as well because they work great.

I always thought you HAD to have the Voodoo kernel installed, he's even more brilliant than I first thought. He is a legend, he does some great work

I'll rate it as soon as my get my SGS working again. I've been installing a few different custom kernels and mods just trying to find one that I like that had the Voodoo kernel. I can now go back to stock JVH! WOO!
I installed the voodoo control plus from the market and it works very well.
