vG.1.1

-Voodoo color fix

-Voodoo sound v8

-Compilation optimizations

-Call audio through dock

Voodoo lagfix is next.
[Captivate Android Development] tehsam:
this is really moving along fast! thanks to xcal for the great work.

I noticed "call audio through headphones" isn't in the OP anymore. has that been implemented, or will it at least still be coming through in a future version?
[Captivate Android Development] xcaliburinhand:
Call audio through headphones is built into JVB stock. I removed it from the list since there is nothing I have to do to enable it.

Not sure if it was Samsung or Google, but it is nice to see it actually working from the get go.
[Captivate Android Development] tehsam:
awesome. thanks! looking forward to trying this out.
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
Thanks X,

Really been looking forward to your updates.

Great Job
[Captivate Android Development] Beny The Kid:
Hey all. Flashed to GB NEE yesterday using HaiKaiDo's package just swapping in Xcal's newest work and everything went smoothly. He has a really good step by step instructions with everything you need to get it done.

+1 for Xcal for all his work and Hai for his great instructions.
[Captivate Android Development] Rikusaki:
Yes, yes, YES!

You are awesome. Love it.
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
I have audio issues while running xcal's kernels, both 1.0 and 1.1. While listening to music I hear random cracking/popping on occasion. This problem went away when I flashed Dark Core 2.1. I flashed back to xcal's and the problem reappeared. Flashed back to Dark Core and it's gone. Anyone else having audio issues?
[Captivate Android Development] :
this is great thank you!

jvb is so smooth on my cap.. i duno how voodoo could make it faster but i cant wait to try it lol...

is it possible to incorporate the home button fix into the kernel so we dont have to flash it separately? its easy enough to do it separately but i was just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] MarlowXim:
@xcaliburinhand been messing with sources and changing yas magnetic sensor board number from 7 to 0, has improved the compass for me. It's under drivers -> input. See if it improves for you as well.
[Captivate Android Development] xcaliburinhand:
I thought about it, but decided not to combine the two since the home key fix only needs to be flashed once. Would rather not overwrite files if I don't have to.

I'll give it a try. Currently I am using position 7 with the mappings of position 1. Position 1 alone did not work correctly. I don't think I tried position 0, so it is worth a shot.
[Captivate Android Development] xfakexbloodx:
-Audio uses dock when available (use this app)

how to use the app ??
[Captivate Android Development] han.azuki:
I thought about it, but decided not to combine the two since the home key fix only needs to be flashed once. Would rather not overwrite files if I don't have to.

but then there's ppl like me to tends to flash roms over and over again :(
[Captivate Android Development] modest_mandroid:
It just flashes melfas_touchkey.kl, which is outside of the kernel and part of the rom. It's up to the rom dev to include it or modify their rom appropriately.
[Captivate Android Development] rjayflo:
How would I flash Simply Honey 3.1 rom from I9000 forum if its packaged with CFroot kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] zodiaxe66:
Hi

did u port this to int. gt-i9000

i tried a version about ten days ago(by mistake) and it worked well

no missing buttons.or do this work on int.g-9000 without the button fix

by the way.try sgs kernel flasher by neldar to flash tar files.much quicker and comfortable and works great.also zlmage can be flashed
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
i dont think you understand what this kernel is for. the gt-i9000 has a different button mapping and display rotation. this kernel is designed for the CAPTIVATE i897 to overcome those issues. if you use this on a gt-i9000 you may lose your button mappings and the screen rotation would be off by 90degrees. this kernel is meant for us captivate users to be able to run i9000 gb roms. there is no reason for you to run this on an i9000. just run any one of the kernels you guys have in the i9000 forums
[Captivate Android Development] zodiaxe66:
Sorry but i understand very well.that why i ask if this has been ported to int. Sgs version.i was given an earlier version which ran fine on my int. sgs,as stated before.kernels are being ported across sgs phones and forums.

but thanx anyway
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
This was ported FROM the I9000 to port it back it would just be stock jvb?
[Captivate Android Development] nuwayman:
You can run on a i9000 rom. I'm using gingerreal 3.1 rom from there as we speak. The button mapping is off but that is what the home button fix is for on the first page. It corrects the button mapping issue. Just flash an i9000 rom and then flash either this kernal or exists new kernal talon with odin. then go into recovery and flash the button fix. Both of these kernals has the rotation issue fixed also. Make sure you have already flashed the ginger bread rom with the new bootloaders first our you will have issues.
[Captivate Android Development] PuffinNugz:
Obviously he can run an i9000 rom because he has an i9000. He wants this Captivate kernel ported to the i9000 which is virtually pointless.

Captivate users can use i9000 roms because of the reorient kernel. If an i9000 user flashes a reorient kernel, ie this one, their button mapping and orientation would be backwards. There really is no reason to reorient a reorient kernel, which basically is what he wants. He would be better off just flashing an i9000 kernel on his i9000.

He says kernels are ported across the other SGS. I've seen it done from i9000 to the other phones, but not vice versa as he implies.

Zodiaxe - I'd like to see which kernels were taken from Captivate source and ported to the i9000. (or Fascinate source, or vibrant source, and so on.)
[Captivate Android Development] nuwayman:
Misunderstood. Thought he had a captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] xcaliburinhand:
Install the app, open the app and verify the settings meet your needs, put phone in the dock.

App runs in the background, so it will automatically trigger when the phone is docked.

[Captivate Android Development] rjayflo:
so basically if a rom is packaged with kernel already (Simply HOney + CF-Root)...i would flash the rom and flash Reorient afterwards to replace CF-Root...
[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
yes, although you might need to flash it with Odin or sgs kernel flasher(haven't tested that) as those gb kernels use cwm 3 (which uses edify scripting) and you wont be able to flash this kernel through cwm 3
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
correct. and check and make sure the modem works for you too.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
You can flash it, you just need the proper script.

Something like this:

package_extract_dir("updates", "/tmp");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/redbend_ua");
run_program("/tmp/redbend_ua", "restore", "/tmp/zImage", "/dev/block/bml7");
[Captivate Android Development] rjayflo:
Thanks....ok, flash went well but i get a fc when i try to power off. says launcher is not responding.
[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
and it also needs to be named updater-script and include update binary correct?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Yes. 10char
[Captivate Android Development] han.azuki:
Ah! ic. i can just put in my rom then. i didn't even look inside to notice its just a folder haha.
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Can the .tar be flashed with SGS Kernel Flasher? I'm on Continuum 5 beta 1.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Yes. it flashes zip and tar files.
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Thank you sir!
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
Just be warned some people have said funky stuff happened when using it. Most likely should be fine though.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
What kind of"funky"stuff? I've used it several times, the only time it caused boot loop was when I screwed up by not disabling lagfix.
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Just used it, and everything it's supposed to do works great. First time using SGS Kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
I have the same issue with Talon. Issue not present on Dark Core 2.1. Any thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] zodiaxe66:
Suckerpunch for one.this kernel and i could go on its about tweaks hacks and stability and the dev choices to which kernel that is creatively made.all sgs Rom can be used sgs (i know some Rom have builb-in reorientation)its the kernel that is the catalyst.your dev's are just as good as European one.this is why i asked this question.
[Captivate Android Development] PuffinNugz:
Suckerpunch, just like this kernel, was built from i9000 source, so i still don't get the point.
[Captivate Android Development] silentheero:
+1. I am loving this so far, but there are a couple issues I am trying to work out. One is powering off. I have not been able to power off correctly. I hold the button down and it freezes and eventually soft reboots. If I hold the power and volume buttons, it will hard reset. I am running v1.1 of the kernel, the new bootloaders, Juwe's i9000 rom, Zeam launcher.

The other issue is the soft rebooting. It takes FOREVER to soft reboot (relatively). Like 3-4 minutes. Not sure what is happening. It's almost like it is rebuilding the cache each time, but I'm not sure.

Other than that, It's smooth and problem-free. No headphone, bt, wireless, or power issues for me.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
None of that has to do with the kernel. It's the framework files not being on the same page for the extended power menu.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
the rom doesnt control the reorientation...thats all in the kernel.

your statement is wrong also. not ALL sgs rom can be used on another sgs....try to load up a samsung fascinate rom on your i9000, as is with its kernel. oh, you might want to have a spare i9000 on hand for when you break yours doing so.
[Captivate Android Development] :
I cant tell if its from this kernel, the rom or both being built from the 2.3.3 source, but its so snappy/responsive... would lagfix even really do anything?
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
I thought the same thing. Then I tried talon with the lagfix, and i got wood it got even better.
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
I wanted to drop in to say that existz's latest update has fixed my audio issues
[Captivate Android Development] Rikusaki:
I am coming back from Talon to get the old CWM back. I flashed xcal's kernel with ODIN and now the phone is stuck at the i9000 splash screen. Can still access download mode. Do I need a pit file?
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I'm on continuum RC3. What would I do to upgrade and what problems may that cause me with future versions of the ROM? This uses 2.5 that uses 3.0.
[Captivate Android Development] rjayflo:
Yes u need the pit file...it happened to me
[Captivate Android Development] rlorange:
This will fix multi touch issues. Its rom related and one simple xml file replacement.

http://db.tt/vG7eyRS

One of the bugs in jvk/b fixed!

This one fixes the touch button lights always staying on

Enjoy my captivate cousins! ;)

[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
Have not found that setting :( would like it back as the stay awake app seems to reset my timeout settings to none every time I put it for a charge
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
You do NOT need a pit file. It's actually preferable not to have one, because if you do "Re-partition" will be automatically check itself when the phone is plugged in.

If "Re-partition" is checked, and you're flashing just a kernel, you will have a soft-brick that's fixable only with Odin.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Probably didn't convert back to RFS.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
It's quite obnoxious that there is an ext4 kernel floating around causing problems.

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] jcr81:
IMHO, GR-10 is incredibly more responsive with the EXT4 file system. Just my opinion. Love your rom and work!
[Captivate Android Development] glitterballs:
Sometimes, it seems, the blind prefer to be led by the blind.

edit - @MikeyMike01 you have a 2048kb readahead script in your ROM right? Did you check the speed with that? When I was testing readahead patches, I didn't see any increase, actually a small decrease, in going from 1024 to 2048 for the external card.
[Captivate Android Development] jcr81:
I flashed the fix for the lights and they still dont come on when I touch the screen. Is this supposed to work in conjunction with keep the lights on?

Sent from my Samsung Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] bryman27:
The fix makes it where it behaves like previous i9000 builds, only lighting up when you press a button (when on a captivate). On froyo, this was eventually fixed so that they would light up whenever you tap the screen also, but I don't think anybody has fixed that in gingerbread yet. Without the fix you quoted, the lights would stay on all the time.
[Captivate Android Development] illini71:
I have this kernel installed on GR-10 and im still having these wacky issue with the auto rotation. Isnt this kernel supposed to fix this. Can some lead me in the direction for a fix.

[Captivate Android Development] ppalbicke:
What are your issues? I had this running on GR9 and now on 11 without issue.
[Captivate Android Development] ppalbicke:
Got it. I went in and messed with calibration and see there is an issue that prevents auto rotation. Only fix I did was reboot and all is well, but it is still an issue if you try and re-calibrate.
[Captivate Android Development] :
I'd like to get into this. If you need a guinea pig/student.. I'm looking for someone to show me the ropes.
[Captivate Android Development] modest_mandroid:
What's stopping you? Grab the source and poke around :p
[Captivate Android Development] Soccer_Dad:
That's funny. I've just decided to flash the even updates, and you are working on the odd ones.

It will be nice when someone writes a script that works on both recovery 2.5 and 3, or has a way to switch recovery from inside recovery. For now, I'm hanging on to 2.5, figuring that it's two odin sessions to test something like Talon and come back to xcals kernel. That's two more chances to brick my phone than I'd like to take.
[Captivate Android Development] momulah:
Hey guys if I convert system to ext4 and leave rfs for the rest with a different kernel then flash this kernel will it bootloop?

[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
There is no ext4 support with this kernel... so most likely... but I have never tried;)

[Captivate Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Cant brick your phone from flashing a kernel with odin. not a hardbrick anyway. worst that would happen is you would have to re flash the current rom your on now.

That's nice to know. Thanks.

I've been using sgs kernel flasher from the market to switch between kernels, and I haven't had a prob yet. I have found it a safe and easy way to switch them. I have used it on a couple of my friends phones too and they have no issues either
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
So this reboot problem is with the latest update which is 1.1 or is it also with the 1.0 release?
[Captivate Android Development] tcortinag:
There is no problems with the kernel, only is a problem if you flash this kernel with EXT4, if you have RFS you're good to go..
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
Tried to flash this back over Talon after converting back to RFS, but can't use the CWM zip from Talon's CWM3 because this still used amend commands instead of edify. Xcal, any chance that can be... amended? ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Ebvad:
I have been doing the same with sgs kernel flasher. Have gone back and forth between this and Talon no probs. Just have to remember to convert back to rfs on talons.

[Captivate Android Development] 305Freak:
I'm hoping the new one supports sound through usb for car dock support.
[Captivate Android Development] glitterballs:
Yeah...I really don't think that's it. Some of the developers can do little more than copy and paste, and some of them have a profound misunderstanding or lack of knowledge of anything to do with software development. And if people are happy with it, hey, great. It doesn't change the fact that some people have some really bad ideas. So that, and to be perfectly honest, the users. And it's not me saying that, and I'm not saying I agree or disagree, but look around on Twitter, it's not really a rare feeling. "I flashed this ROM/kernel/modem, and then my cat got sick? Do you think the two are related??"

As an aside - Can anyone top this? Two days of battery life on one charge, and when I plugged it back it I had just hit 9%. You'll see that my screen was only 30% of the battery which might seem very low, but I still had it on for over two and a half hours on screen on time. And all you need to do this is sensible kernel development and a decent knowledge of some of the tunables.
