Hmm,

This kernel as been working great but i have one problem.

If i try to increase the gain using voodoo apps, my notification and ringtone (which is always max) will cause me to go deaf on my earphone.

Unfortunately i need to keep my ringtone volume at max all the time, otherwise the speaker output will be too low for my liking.

Is there a way around this? To keep the gain considerably high and yet maintaining an acceptable ringtone volume via earphone?

Thank you mate. I will try to upgrade it with Kies.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dimitar_:
For example: Now I have JPX installed. I want to install Voodoo. That I know how to do (flash with Heimdall "stock+Voodoo JPX").

What happens when I already have "stock+Voodoo JPX" and I want to upgrade to newer firmware (for example JPY)? Or if I want to install voodoo 5.1 (that only works with JPY) What is the procedure than?

Thanks for your answer :)

p.s. btw is it safe to flash with Heimdall?

What are the preconditions of installing the latest version of the Voodoo lagfix (5.1) please? The Voodoo pre6 install guide says that 5.1 is for 2.2.1 only, though this is not the impression that I get from browsing various XDA threads? So which is it? In particular, can 5.1 be installed/flashed on an i9000M JL2 (FroYo 2.2), or not?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
I recommend you set digital gain for Media to the max and use the lowest analog headphone amplifier level that gives you the sound you want.

Notification sounds won't be an issue with this settings, and you will get the best sound quality.

PS sound notification level is adjustable in android settings.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gravityz3r0:
thanks supercurio,

i did what you said, i used the apps to control the gain directly for notification/ringtone volume (which is rather low), and then max my media volume control and i get the perfect volume that im always listening to.

awesome kernel Curio,i tested first trasig new 666 .2 OC but get FC & nonresponding screen at all SGS,I must say on OC 1280

than install your source 5.1 the newone,exelent

more smoothnes than Darkys 69.3 kernall without lagfix

I get less score on Quadrant about 100 points but become very smooth Darky rom
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Phk:
Exactly the same.

Darky's V8
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
I verify.

I would not be surprised if this is because of the "datadata.img" renamed to "dbdata.img" in backups

This useless change makes a few other kernels incompatible with... well, every other ClockWorkMod implementation on the planet including the official one !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
Confirmed, there is no ClockWorkMod recovery or Nandroid issue.

If you need to restore a backup made by a non-standard version:

- go to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/your-backup/

- rename dbdata.img to datadata.img

- edit nandroid.md5, and do the same in this text file.

It should work now.

Hi supercurio,

I've been using Voodoo 5.1 since yestarday when I saw the realease on Twitter. It is just amazing how Voodoo Sound improves the quality of our SGS headphone and speaker. Just amazing.

But since this afternoon im having an issue with the Kernel, at some point, the whole sound level of the phone goes really low, when in settings and on VoodooApp are not lowered, in fact, they are maxed. It really gets very low and makes notifications difficult to hear... The problem has happened to me twice, and a reboot on the phone solved it twice. Any guess why this is happening?

Thank you very much!!

Keep up the good work!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hilta:
I dont think its the voodoo sound, i have this issue with darkys 8.0 with speedmod..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Hmmm, Im also on Darky's 8.0, but Im not using speedmod, Im on voodoo 5.1. Since last reboot yeeterday at 11pm ive hadn't had the issue though, will be testing it a couple of days more, and I'll post some feedback.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] memphisraynz:
I came to reportreport the same problem, I am using jpu stock with this kernel.

I think you will notice that rather than the sound being low its using the front speaker rather than the rear, witch is why it seems so low.

still supercurio top work on this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Hmmm, didn't notice it was using the front speaker, it just seemed very low. I'll look further into this when it happens to me again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aqua1ung:
Looks like this has nothing to do with the kernel: I am having the same issue with JL2 and everything stock. I've noticed that sometimes after a phone conversation the routing of the sound remains stuck on the front speaker, instead of being re-routed, as normal, to the back speaker. To fix this, either re-boot, or make a call to yourself from some other phone, ant let it ring a couple of times (no need to answer). This seems to fix it.

Hi guys,

I'm interested in updating to the latest version of Voodoo but have got a couple of questions about it and the update procedure. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I have read a variety of sources, but since information on the subject is wide and varied I thought asking on here would be my best resort, as I am a somewhat a noob at this stuff.

- I've got Android 2.2 (FROYO.HVJP4) installed, will Voodoo 5.1 run on it? Most places I've looked I only find ppl have got 2.2.1 to run it and the Voodoo site claims that same

If the above is a YES.

- I've currently got "Voodoo-5-stable-RC1 installed" what's the best way to install the latest version of Voodoo? The way I installed the current version on my phone was using the oneclicklagfix app, which subsequently no longer exists on the market.

I have seen the community based doc posted on the OP's first post in this thread about installation, but there is mention that it's not up to date and well kinda hard to take it all as gospel i guess. :confused:

Once again any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Sorry I forgot to mention I'm running z4root (to root the phone), have got superuser installed and enable and currently lagfix is active. Do any of these need disabling to update to Voodoo 5.1?

Advice: Voodoo and Busybox

I've noticed that the version of Busybox that comes with Voodoo (in /voodoo/root/bin) has far less commands than available in other releases - it's also very much smaller.

Can you advise me how best to get a newer and fuller version installed onto my SGS? Is the one that is also in /bin with the same version and size as in /voodoo/root/bin the same copy?

As a test I copied over the version from SuperOneClick into /voodoo/root/bin and it seems to work, but I'm not sure how safe it is to simply do this. I read with the Busybox app in Market that sometimes you need one specific to a ROM and I don't want to mess up my Voodoo installation.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
Hi!

Those temp file, used during conversion are created when Voodoo lagfix is in debug mode but not useful for normal use.

You can delete them safely.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
Yes, busybox version used by Voodoo is heavily optimized for size and it contains only commands used by the lagfix.

It's not here to be used by other software than the lagfix (even if you can use it manually of course;)

In order to install Busybox on your system, it makes no difference, you can get it the usual way. Thanks to Voodoo's path, it won't interfere with other Busybox installation.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jreynol2:
Forgive me, I'm still a bit confused....this fix requires changes to the Kernel? Do all the Lagfixes require this?

And if I'm understanding, the fix will not work until it is released specifically for the Vibrant, most likely by JAC (whoever that is?)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Not all lagfixes work this way, but all the "voodoo" code is in the initialization of the kernel, so yes, it does need to be specifically compiled for the Vibrant. JAC already has optimized kernels, so it made sense for him to just compile them for us (as he can actually test them)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EarlZ:
Im very interested in this, is tha lagfix firmware dependent?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Kernel dependent. It'll work with any firmware that runs with that kernel. Your kernel will be replaced by the Voodoo kernel, which is made from GPLed Samsung code. (Which kernel that relates to in Samsung version numbers isn't known, but judging by the date it's probably JF* series. Anybody know? It does have tweaks done to it though. :D)

So basically, the I9000 kernel version will work for any 2.1 firmware. The Captivate version will work with any Captivate firmware, etc. Flashing the wrong kernel to your phone could be very bad, but the install scripts should save you. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EarlZ:

Hey guys,

just a quick question. After "bricking" my phone via Kies (official Update...) I flashed the JPY Firmware via Odin. After that I flashed the Voodoo Kernel, Version "Stable 5.2". Well, suddenly I remembered, I wanted to wipe the phone for a fresh start. So I did a Wipe / factory reset and flashed the Voodoo Kernel again. Started the phone, no errors.

My question is now, is the LagFix now enabled? After first time flashing Voodoo I had to wait 3-4 Minutes during convertion. After second time nothing seemed to be converted....

So quick question, after Wiping and re"install" Voodoo (via Odin) --> Lagfix active? Or do I have to manually disable and re-enable the lagfix?

Thanks guys!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hardcore:
Hi supercurio, nice job on voodoo sound v2.

About the 128x oversampling, it seems like a good choice to make it default, but I haven't tested it enough to see if there are any differences in battery life - I guess that would be the main factor in deciding if it should be default or not.

From what I know, usually the clockrate, oversampling, and playback sampling frequency are linked. If 64x oversampling at 44.1khz/48khz can work with a lower clockrate, then maybe it's a good idea to lower the clockrate for the default 64x oversampling - to save some battery life (at the expense of the higher quality of 128x oversampling).

But maybe the differences are negligible - who knows?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] raphy972:
Yes I have the same problem when recording @ above 22,5kHz but when recording @16kHz or @22,5kHz no audio/video out of sync problem. Strange.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hardcore:
@supercurio

another thing. Is the drc applied to media playback? Is it possible to disable drc if it is?

EDIT: Hmm... okay I had more time to look at the code an I see that you're actually using the DRC to expand the sound for the "+1.5dB" feature. I'm somewhat of an audio enthusiast myself, and I think that it's best to disable the DRC if we want to achieve the "cleanest" output.... I think I'll email you directly about this and maybe we can exchange ideas.

Btw the sound is really good with 128x os.

Hi!

Lagfix activation/disactivation has no effect on the ability of the phone to enter sleep.

Continue investigating this analysis tool, and you may find the application / service responsible of the inability of your phone to enter sleep.

- But it's 100% unrelated to Voodoo kernel or lagfix.
