will it work if I swap the zimage kernel in the rom for Dr. Honk's new KH2 zimage kernel? I'm not sure whether to use the zimage from the odin file or the zimage from the CWM file -- they are two different sizes.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
I'm sure that works. Many of us have flashed the KH2 kernel with Voodoo enabled without any problems. It just seems to lower my quadrant scores (2,700 to 2,300).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bbobarino:
So what is the benefit in flashing the kh2 kernal I have zero issues with this kg4 kernal I odined oringinally is there any benefit if so what is it?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sixmsj:
Had an interesting crash with Launcher 7 today. I'm assuming L7 crashed so it kept restarting back to the lockscreen. I had to turn it off with the power button and start back up but lost my edt/and some other settings as well as lost the use of my home button.

Home button still isn't working. Anyone have the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
I had a similar problem yesterday after a failed overclock. any time I made a change to the launcher or homescreen options, it would crash and reboot the phone. the home button also didn't work, and none of the lockscreens worked (they just didn't show up at all). Was using the touchwiz4 launcher that comes with the rom.

I backed up the rom, and then did a factory reset, which seemed to have fixed it. I then restored my data, and all the problems came back, so I'm guessing some data got corrupted.

I did another factory reset, and reflashed the rom just to be safe (disabled and re-enabled voodoo without a hitch). All is good now.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sixmsj:
Did you have to download busybox/disable/enable voodoo after the factory reset? I'm guessing it's okay to just download Titan and restore all the apps afterwards. Is this the wrong method?

kernel issue

I installed this Rom, it works although i think the kernel/bootloader, both KG4 and KH2 cause a ugly rainbow of colors during boot and occasionally. anyone know a fix for this, that still allows for cwm recovery? I thought i had read this in the past somewhere, but i don't know if it applies for this. otherwise this rom is great.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
Download FB's "installbusybox.zip" and put it on you sd card. flash this right after you flash the rom, and you'll be able to convert to voodoo on the first boot. you can then upgrade your busybox version later via the market if you need to.

if that doesn't work, follow all the steps in his thread:

I've been using Titanium to restore my apps. I did get the disappearing shorcuts once, but I rebooted to cwm, cleared cache, dalvik, and fixed permissions, and it's been fine since.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
I think that happens when you don't have the gb bootloaders.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] druhaul:
so I just flashed the KH2 kernel over Valhalla GB KH2 with voodoo enabled and it worked flawlessly, I flashed about an hour ago, but have testing my phone and here are my initial impressions...

-my only problem with this rom was that it seemed the GB task manager was killing apps way too quickly, I'd open up GO SMS PRO and as soon as I pressed home and then went to the task manager, the app would be killed. With the KH2 kernel this is no longer happening, apps are not being killed nearly as quickly and RAM management is just as good as it was previously when I was using the KG4 kernel with this rom

-quad scores have dropped 300-300 points which is really strange...my phone does not seem to be running any slower, if anything it's even smoother and more lag free than when I was using the KG4 kernel

-battery life seems to be the same, but I only flashed the KH2 kernel a hour ago, so I will continue to monitor that

All and all I would definitely recommend flashing the KH2 kernel. A little over a month ago I lost my Nexus S, I had insurance on it, but asurion had no Nexus S phones in stock, so they replaced my phone with the SGS4G. I never rooted my Nexus S, as I was content on stock, needless to say I was in for quite a shock when I had to use stock touchwiz froyo on the SGS4G I hated it. So, of course I had to root and flash some roms. I can now honestly say that with using Dsextons SAS/USAS tweaks, the KH2 Kernel, and running Valhalla GB KH2, my SGS4G has surpassed my experience on the Nexus S (something I thought would never happen)...big thank you's go out to drhonk, dsexton, whitehawk, and raver!

"Did you do an advanced data restore from from Froyo? If you did, that's your problem. Froyo advanced data restores on GB mess with the dialer (possibly other things too).

Your best bet is to restore your NANDROID backup of Froyo, backup using Titanium, follow all steps to properly reflash GB, and restore your backups with Titanium."

You don't need the paid version. The free version restores perfectly fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] xolanir:
Was wondering if it's possible to install a kernel that supports voodoo sound on Valhalla?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mad_fitter:
Not yet. Voodoo sound must be added from source, and there is no GB kernel source available yet. Everything is still being built from leaks.

Also, anyone who is having issues downloading .zip format files: this is caused because some devs are removing the think free office apk. This must be installed to dl certain formats. I think the app is being mistaken for bloat. Grab it out of another ROM and install it.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Tempott:
Thanks for the great rom. I'm just having one problem with setting wallpaper. I use 480x800 because it stops the wallpaper from scrolling. It is also one of the crop options when setting wallpaper. When I first installed the rom, everything worked fine. But now all of a sudden when setting 480x800 wallpaper, it sets it as 960x800 and zoom in on the chosen wallpaper. So the pic looks zoomed in and there's scrolling. I also had this same issue with ICBINB KH1 Rom. My wife's GS4 running the Valhalla rom still sets 480x800 wallpaper perfectly. Anyone know what could have possibly stopped my wallpaper from setting correctly?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KurlyK:
Problems with Dialer Re-Setting

Like some others, I too am having issues with dropped calls and the dialer 're-setting' itself when trying to make calls.

I went back to the original stock ROM, followed the steps on FBis' Youtube video and flashed KG4 and then Dr. Honk's CWM stock+voodo ROM. Then installed Valhalla over that, waited 20 minutes, installed busybox, robooted, etc. Also reset phone/user data then used Titanium backup to reinstall all of my apps.

Appeared that everything was working fine but once I started making calls, it would hang up on the caller and often would re-set itself when I went into call logs.

Very frustrating and not sure what I did wrong or what I can do to correct it. Anyone having similar issues and its resolution, I would welcome any help you can offer. Thanks!

I've had problems with the phone randomly rebooting. I moved from drhonk's kg4 to kh2 kernel, and it seems more stable. It dropped my quad a bit, but I'll side on less quad for more stability. Still able to OC to 1.4. If I can find a way to consistently repro the reboot (which might mean going back to kg4) I'll send a logcat, amongst other info.

Whitehawkx gets my thanks! Awesome rom!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
Okay, loving the ROM, only things I've changes so far was to go find my Jameson wallpaper from Black Ice and put it back (loves me some Jameson, the whiskey, although Jenna's not bad either..) and added Dsextons SASv6 tweaks..

I had to check speeds after the upgrade, Dr Honks H2 kernel, and the H2 modem, wanted to be sure all was well... so her's how it panned out this morning...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
Are you using a task killer? If you are, stop using it. It causes the random reboots by killing essential processes.

You could also fix permissions through CWM and see how that works.

Hey guys,

Those of you that have had this ROM for a while now can you report on the GPS and Wifi performance? I would like to use this ROM but am concerned about the GPS performance primarily. Currently, I get great GPS and Wifi performance on Froyo.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
GPS has been fine for me, wifi seems okay as well.

I really only use Wi-Fi at the office and the house, and my office is near an AP so no help there, signal is always running in the -10 range.

At home, it may be a little weak, but it's hard to say, if it is, it is not by much.

i have a GS4G with currently the stock ROM installed, it's rooted and has CWM as well, could someone let me know what steps I need to take to install this? do i just install the zip from CWM recovery? or do i need to still flash the KG4 with Odin first or something? if so how do i do that? says i need to have GB bootloaders installed, how exactly do i do that and which is the bootloader? sorry im pretty new to this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] QUIETLYloud:
When you install the kg4 leak you'll have the boot loaders, then Dr. Honk's kg4 kernel, which gives you root. Both are flashed via Odin.

Then it's a matter of following op instructions.

what type of problems am i looking at without installing this over a gb rom? i had some trouble doing it with the kg4 leak and the original instructions, i just flashed the stock Froyo deodexed KD1 using ODIN, and then i just used CWM to flash this Valhalla rom, and it all installed fine and everything seems to be working, but original post says i'll have problems so just wondering did i actually do it right? or is there any issues that i'll be running into that i should know about?

also had a question about ext4, i know i have to do some extra stuff to get ext4 properly working with GB, but when i flashed with ODIN i had 'Re-Partition' checked, does this mean that it took the ext4 i had from before out? is ext4 required to use with GB or is it fine to use like this as well? i just want to make sure i did the process right and want to know if there's any problems i should be aware of before deciding to keep the rom or not, thanks.

Rebooted once and market issues are fixed.

DL titanium batch restore apps

Everything works.

Called myself to make sure.

Nice job whitehawk and raver

Now can I flash back to FTW?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] farwek:
Looks like alot of the problems with stuff rebooting and the dialer tab not working has to do with tw4.5 becuz I just put tw3 in there and it works great. No random reboots and no more dialer issues. I did find out that the dialer random closes is most likely not the tw4.5 becuz I cleared the init.d tweaks and had no more dialer issues. It seemed as if the phone had less random reboots but they still happened everyonce in a while along with some random lockups while using miscellaneous apps. But like I said its just the launcher cuz tw3 never does any of that.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ptclik85:
So did you delete tw4 from system apps? I tried pushing tw3 into system/app, fixed permission and moved tw4 out of system/app but I can't get it to work

For what its worth, I was able to upgrade to 1.1 without having to convert back to RFS (aka disabling Voodoo). Not saying everyone should try this, but it did work for me, phone is running flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ptclik85:
Tried that, it was a no go. Im using touchwiz30.apk, could that be the problem, if so, do you where i can find another tw3 launcher?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Whitehawkx:
Do this. Open up the market and install ANY launcher (like launcherpro). After you do that make it your main launcher. Then go to /system/app and delete the TW4Launcher (if you haven't already). After you delete it REBOOT. When your phone boots back up THEN put the touchwiz30launcher.apk back in /system/app and make sure the permissions are rw-r--r--. If you are still unable to use it, reboot one more time. Now you should be able to use it NP.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ekcivic2000:
can we put swype back in?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
have you tried renaming the touchwiz30.apk to TW4Launcher.apk (I believe that's what it is in Valhalla) and then pushing it to /system/app? I remember doing that once, but I can't remember if I did it while the rom was on my phone, or still in the zip file.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Whitehawkx:
Have you tried the swype beta? It's MUCH better and very easy to install. I attached the installer to the OP. Just download it, set up an account and log in and download the latest version. Trust me, its WAY better than the stock one. :)

Ok I installed this I'm in love :D

Though, my phone froze and rebooted when restarting and saving homescreen options, I think I did it too close to another "restart and save", which must have caused this. But after boot, it all was good again. I think to avoid this, one must wait a reasonable time for launcher to save and load itself again before saving new options.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mikeflash:
I was able to advance restore with fewer steps. After installing busybox, I reboot to get ext4 conversion (went OK), then after checking everything was working I rebooted again into recovery, wipe factory reset, restore advanced backup (/data), then advanced > fix permissions and voilá. My apps were all up and running.

However, homescreen links were not present. No big deal, just re-add them from the drawer. And also lockscreen wallpaper wasn't the same as my backup, but I fixed that setting my own at display options.

So far sooo good! My contacts are the same, already merged, apps are working and I feel fine :D
