[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benoitb85:
I have the feeling the stock sound in CM7 is on-par with a Voodoo-ed stock Samsung rom.

While not implementing the Voodoo sound features in the standard kernel, does the CM7 kernel use similar techniques out of the box ?

Am I unable to tell the difference ? I could tell the difference between a voodoo samsung rom and a stock samsung rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josteink:
The Voodoo Control Plus app reports that voodoo sound is not loaded on my stock CM7 kernel and that a sound-module has to be loaded.

I can definitely tell the difference before and after on my overly expensive Shure earbuds.

Q: GTalk doesn't work with FFC?

A: We can either have a fully fixed camera without gtalk video chat support (samsung libcamera)

or we can have a buggy camera with gtalk video chat support (opensource libcamera). We went with the fully working camera without GTalk FFC support. Once we have updated libs from Samsung for camera, it'll work.

Well It sure isn't working for me. I can take photos without any problems. However filming is crap for me. The video gets unsynced after 3-5secs and gets more unsynced over time.

I'm using CM7 NIGHTLY 0515 with TGlitch V9A2. Might it be the kernal that's messing stuff up?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] utsmaster18:
I know its kind of late but though i would share my battery info as well. During usage, it is on par with Samsung roms. But during idle it seems to be worse by a bit. On samsung it would be around 1% per hour. Here it might be a bit faster, maybe 1.5-2% per hour. And for some reason it goes in levels of 2%. Like it will be on 91% for a long while and then just skip straight to 89% while barely being on 90%.

Maybe a few more cycles will smoothen it out. I'm on latest nightly with the stock kernel and KC1 modem.

Do you.mean a wipe, or a format? If you do a factory restore it will wipe your user data only....if you format the internal SD card it will erase everything including backups, etc.

I think you would have to do a fresh install after formatting the SD card....and even if you don't have to it would probably be best.

After a factory restore you just need to replace your apps and settings...no biggie.

From what I can find online, these are the formats supported by stock Android:

Right. That sounds like a botched install and a general failure at keeping your contacts somewhere not your phone.
