it's look bad the first time. But after some minutes, you realize that the colors are more balanced. You will notice that in videos mostly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tof9:
Is it possible to seperate the fixes or will all future releases force you to take both or nothing?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
I really like it, it is so vibrant!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ppeccin:
I really like the whites on my SGS the way they are (stock). Maybe some phones are different from others in this issue?

Comparing to my friends' Droid display, mine looks really white while his looks yellowish.

Its like when you look at a car's Xenon headlights (really white, not the blue ones), if you are used to look at the normal and old headlights which are in fact yellow.

I think its all relative.

I wish I could have the Voodoo lagfix and the other improvements without this color change.

It would be very nice if the independent fixes were somehow configurable.

I look forward to see this in future releases. For now, I'll just have to wait I guess.

Thank you and congratulations for the amazing work.

Don't like the color/brightness changes here too! Going back to Beta1.. Hope we will have separate fixes in the future!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Inios:
just installed voodoo on an existing ROM of JM7 (Tayutama Edition v1.2) and am loving it - thanks supercurio!

the color settings at 100% take some getting used to but then you realize the original settings had a bluish tint to everything!

cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kingkero:
can i use voodoo on superslim mod rom base on XXJPC?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] smartwild:
howz the battery like with beta 2?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] asgard:
Wow, can't turn off or uncouple the color mods from beta 2? Yuck... won't be installing :( Seems to me like theres plenty of h/w variance in color/screens across the world - the reputed blue tinge supercurio has on his is not remotely present on my pristine "whites are whites" Australian bought model, so any color dicking will just degrade here, its perfect as is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eRajesh:
I had once compared screens of mybajd my friend's Galaxy S. His screen had a blueish tint which was not there on my phone. So here is definitely dfferent revisions of this Super-AMOLED screen being used in all the Galaxy S out there.

Since i use a constant brightness setting, the color modifications don't really affect me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Here comes the backlash..... :D

Maybe it's not a good idea to be jack of all trades, master of none. Color tone is a very personal thing.... Thankfully I'm ok with the changes, but I can see why some would be unhappy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Sim-1:
Anybody? :o
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kalpik:
Yes, you can use voodoo with that ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kalpik:
+1!

Even mine was perfectly alright on stock! The color mod has ruined it for me :(

PLEASE release the color mod separately for those who need/want it!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
For those that doesn't like the color tone, the code is open source to modify it. And besides it's not only the color tone is also the filters in video playback and the ultra-low brightness when this is set to low.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Sim-1:
Thank you ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bandis710:
Can somebody please help .. I wanted to disable the lagfix but I can't !! There is no Voodoo directory on my sdcard visible !! When I want to creat it it says that it allready exist althought it isn't visible !!Not even with root explorer .. I only have a file called voodoo on my sd card with some errormessages in it :

init.sh: line 383 : can't create /sdcard/Voodoo/voodoo_log.txt: nonexistent directory

As I said before a dir called voodoo simply can not be made ..because it says it allready exists but it isn't visible ..and the script says it can't be created because it doesn't exist ????

Edit: problem fixed !! Thanks to @knowsnotmuch on irc .. when you have applied the lagfix a standalone logfile called Voodoo is present on the internal sdcard, because of this file you can not make a folder called voodoo ( and put disable lagfix file/folder in there to disable the lagfix) .. This can be solved by renaming the voodoo file to voodoo1 ( or any other name) after you renamed the file you can creat a folder called Voodoo ..

This should be in the faq I think
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] diehard2222:
do you know how we can revert it to normal?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tschmidt84:
hi! does anyone know when and if support for clockwork mod is coming? cheers... thomas
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Sim-1:
There is something wrong with it though: it keeps crashing..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TDO:
After all this talk about color tone I measured the color of two SGS.

All I can say - holy **** - what on earth has Samsung done?

Red: 54%

Green: 110%

Blue: 130%

And the white point is way above 10000K
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
The voodoo file in the sdcard is just a log you can rename it or delete it. From there you can create the Voodoo folder,

Just uninstall the lagfix and flash another FW.

Screen color calibration

@supercurio:

Won't the work on color calibration be a repetition of what appears to be already available for Froyo-based ROMs (http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...universal-version-takes-aim-at-more-phones/)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ferdimage:
how the hell do i remove my previous data from beta1!!

it keeps restoring my previous installed apps and settings (beta1) when i update to the new beta2!!

annoying...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cba1986:
did you create a file with no extension in the sdcard called "disable-lagfix", to remove beta1?

did you wipe your data via recovery, to erase all your data?

did you even read the FAQ, in the voodoo webpage?

http://project-voodoo.org/faq

Come back when you do all that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MrBusiness:
Please disable Launcher Pro and show Touchwiz in the next video ;)

And you are really moving like it is speeded up ;) perhaps you should show a normal clock in the video or anything :D

Is voodoo ok to use on JM1 firmware?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
I believe it will run on any 2.1 firmware.

Duplicate post
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lokhor:
Wow I just installed it and now my phone is blazing. I was using oclf before but this is so much smoother I get zero lag ever and all apps open instantly. I'm definitely happy with this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Another duplicate, sorry.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jersr:
I thought Voodoo was a permanent lagfix. Now i read within the projects FAQ:

Does this mean Voodoo is uninstalled after flashing new firmware?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tranhq:
im taking screenshots of the SGS using shootme and i get this weird colour which is nothing like the screen.. i've tried another program and i get the same effect.

could this be the cause of the colour fix? or am i just using incompatible screenshot apps
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ethanfel:
if you use the "repartition" option, yes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EarlZ:
Sorry if this has been asked but if I perform a factory reset via privacy options or recovery mode, will this wipe/damage/mess up the voodoo fix ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] CazeW:
Sorry to say but the video is speeded up. Just watch the show you see on the TV in the background and it's pretty obvious.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oswade:
I don't know if my mind is playing tricks on me, but I don't remember having a blueish tint before voodoo fix.

It might just be that having seen the voodoo colour fix (on 100%) I have finally noticed the tint lol.

But anyways, LOVE the new low brightness mode and video settings. Videos look 100x better!!!

some screenshot apps produce inverted colours on the galaxy s (at least they did when i was trying them a while back).

There should be a few screenshot apps which have the option of inverting the colours (which will fix it)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] marty31:
Nickel le lag fix.

C'est le premier que j'esssaye et je dois dire que j'ai carrément vu la différence niveau fluidité.

Et en plus made in france :)

félicitations !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kindaichi24:
erm is it just me or anyone else think that the screen become smaller abit? like sort of 3.8 inches instead? though i must admit the sharpness and the video colour is great =D

KIES mode broken?

I am using the JM8 fw, until flashing the voodoo kernel Kies works normal.

After reboot Kies is not able to connect to the phone anymore, it just gives an error that the device is in debug mode. Well, USB debug us definitly disabled.

Could it be that voodoo breaks the Kies USB mode?

Regards,

Dan
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MasK:
K.... Just applied beta2 and the speed is definitely awesome. There is a different from the OCLFs.

Besides that, I'm not too bothered about the bluish tint.. perhaps I'm not too sensitive to it (or maybe it was already like that before the fix). I can only feel the bluish tint when I move the brightness slider to the max and suddenly theres a warm tint.

I usually set mine to auto, but with this fix, there seem to be 2 levels of auto brightness only. Not a big fan of the new low setting, but it keeps switching high and low and the difference is drastic. So botomline is that I can't use the auto setting.

I'm using about 10% manual setting. It seems that theres a huge difference betwwen 0% and 10%... hmmm

Anyways.. the speed is definitely a plus point. Id also suggest to have the lag fix separated :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gh0stw4lk3r:
nvm, didn't look good enough
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mundano:
Too bad the color corrections and the lag fix aren-t separate projects... I just want the lag fix..

Wainting for beta 3... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kindaichi24:
how to completely remove this lagfix? create a folder name voodoo and a folder name disable lagfix inside am i right? i did this and reboot but the brightness is still zero percent? However the lagfix has been disabled
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dkcldark:
It's probably because the colour fix is built in the kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bilboa1:
justinstalled the kernel anditworkswell.alotbetter than regular lagfix inmy experience;)

yes myspacebar is broken.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] miragebg:
Can I remove already applied lagfix via nandroid restore, made before?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Beast11:
Ummm my browser just broke... basically the internet icon disappeared but the .apk and .obex are still in system/app/. I uninstalled it, removed the two files... and then tried installing again... and now it wont install cause it says insuffient space...

I am pretty sure its cause of this fix cause i havent done anything else with my phone all day...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] miragebg:
The question is how could you remove it without using Odin?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheTodFather:
Man that video was gay!!! DUde if you are making a video of something to demonstrate something like curio"s speed fix don't speed up the video. That was retarded...i'm sorry. LOL
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
Hope u will make a JPC Verion too.

:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ewok666:
1) You need to remove the lagfix be creating the disable-lagfix folder (unless you want to wipe cache and data anyway)

2) You need an update.zip with the original kernel inside
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] elghouchd:
Captivate?

Is this safe to install on a captivate with stock firmware??:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Umm, feel free to try :rolleyes:........but it says clearly on the website which versions it works for
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bub181:
Hi curio, thanks for all your work. I'm using the lag fix with JM8 and it's working well. For the next version could you make a kernel without the colour corrections? I don't have any issues with Samsung's default settings for the display.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] achio1115:
Running beta3, my SGS is basically lag free now. Loving the new color as well, but I barely use it on full brightness settings. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Its not likely to be the fix but something else that has been done or not done. Hard to say with your post.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tof9:
Thanks for your efforts supercurio but as per other requests, are you able to seperate the fixes in future releases?

I also see you have beta3 up on your site now. Does beta2 have to be removed before applying the beta3 update.zip or can it just go over the top?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] diehard2222:
are those the original values without the colour fix? if so what are the values for the colour fix from curio.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
I flashed beta3 over the top of beta2 this morning as update.zip file and it worked flawlessly and only took about 30 seconds.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ace518:
I'm running this with JM7(I think, not sure off hand) on my captivate. As well as using the JG8 modem which gets me HSUPA

Its got some quirks.

Have to disable auto rotate in settings, as it thinks it is turned 90 degrees. Doesn't bother me, but could be a problem for games. Also it did not connect to data right away.

Heres how I got the data working
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TDO:
Yes this are the original values.

I haven't tried the color fix yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] matty___:
Can I update beta 1 to beta 3 without problems or do I have to revert the beta1 first?

Looked back but didn't get a real answer because 1 poster seemed to have some troubles as other didn't.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ziadau:
EDIT: disregard... is working after a reboot
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ferdimage:
Great work Supercurio! beta4 request please split lagfix and color fix, im sure alot of users would like that too

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] een625:
In case anybody was unable to setup an exchange account with voodoo beta 3, remove it first, set up exchange, and then reenable with update.zip.

That works for me.

Other than that, this is the most responsive lag fix from all the other that I;ve tested
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] asgard:
+1 for this, Super... if you really want everyone to love you, just give us what we want. I am sure heaps of people appreciate the color fix, but some just don't want it, I know from personal experience being a dev and trying to force your "baby" onto users when they want something just slightly different and not doing so just out of pride/whatever issues is a common but silly thing a lot of us types do, because we've put the work in and well "just take it as it is damnit!!!"... lol, decouple them plz!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Daley87:
Love the new lag fix, it is giving the smoothest results when using this phone, much smoother than my old iPhone 3gs, I am running the new JM8+Voodoo B3+Autokiller. Like others the one thing I would like is to have the colour and fix split into two updates, I like the new colours but I don't like having my battery raped at 100%. Amazing lag fix though, makes you wonder why Sammy can't just do that in the newer updates.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] iammichel:
Updating from OCLF to Beta 3 as we speak. Of course, I forgot to disable OCLF before running the update.zip so I am waiting and waiting for the fix to be installed...

Just one question. I read a lot about the color fix that originally was applied to the 100% brightness setting. Does this mean that the default color scheme is available at all other brightness levels? Or are the schemes for these levels messed up?

Edit: Beta3 fully installed. I see the difference when moving from 99% brightness to a 100%. I also really like the ultra low brightness! Answering my own question, I believe that lower brightness levels still use the default color scheme. I don't know why people are having problems with the included color fix then; you now have the ability to select an ultra low brightness, 100% brightness in more natural colors, or any other brightness that was previously available. Those that wish to use maximum brightness without the new color scheme can simply set brightness to 99%...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dagrim1:
My main problem with the color fix is that when brightness is set to auto it defaults to the lowest brightness way too fast and in general use it's too dark for my liking.

The only time I'd like to use a brightness that low would be in the bedroom when the gf is already sleeping or some other areas without any light. When sitting in the livingroom it's way too dark...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EarlZ:
Love the lagfix, hate the color calibration.. decouple them please!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
Okay, just had a crash (unrelated to voodoo, but power was unexpectedly cut off) and there is definetly data loss - Launcherpro stopped working properly, astro file manager gave FC on start - didnt check anything more, went to restore back up).

So its not that safe...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
Please keep the logs to help understand what happens (and obviously, what created the crash in the first place).

Crashs are very rare and i would not be surprised if what caused the crash causes the other problems you got.

I doubt this is related to Voodoo until i see the logs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Thanks Curio, love the lagfix, love the colour fix too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
You suggest that the low brightness mode should append on darker environmental conditions ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JuWa:
I suggest this at least. It changes too easily to lowest brightnes even there is a quite a lot of light. Sometimes even difficult to read from the screen. I love the ultra low brightness on bed when it's complite darkness, but this color fix changes it too easily...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
Okay, until I'll had time to code proper smooth gradations between brightness levels I'll lower the conditions to go to "low brigthness mode"

Ultimately of course there will be no special "low brightness mode", but a smarter brightness auto level algorithm (which requires more profound modifications that was needed to add a new auto-level state using the sensor values)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
It was caused by OC kernel (not really it, but me playing too much with undervoltage).

Had such power cut off's with both stock rfs and lagfixes (especially ext2, but I guess as it was based on rfs it was working without any problems) and never experienced any data loss.

Dont really have log, as did a lot of things after that including restarting, but if I manage to replicate this issue - will save the log.

All in all my post was just to inform you/people that data loss was very much possible (phone is usable, but most of the programs do not launch, so will have to reflash it).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EarlZ:
Would it be possible to see a separate color and lagfix or will both always be in 1 package ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
I have seen plenty of Galaxy S OC issue that lead to corrupted data on read & write.

The CPU looks like it work, don't crash but you know... the system has very unpredictable behavior.

Issue related to OC -> Not Voodoo, and you use an unofficial build obviously.

Please take care next time before pronouncing big words.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
Well, please don't get defensive over nothing, its unbecoming...

But I have been using OC kernel for galaxy since it came out, had crashes on all lagfixes numerous times and not once did I have data loss.

So it's very safe to assume that data loss was caused by combination of suddenly switching off (I took out battery) and converted to ext4 /data.

And please don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, I can restore it all without problems, etc. And I know that I was using a bit different kernel, so technically it's not your problem.

I'm just trying to be a good user and give a bit of useful feedback. So please take care and read and think over my post before trying to insult me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JuWa:
Is it possible, that this could accidently install on External sd card? I read on finnish forum, that someone has the Voodoo folder on external sd card and has a connectivity issues with mobile data network.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
I seriously doubt that. From what I understand, especially in second beta, there are a lot of checks on what and how is converted.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dekeijzer:
The voodoo folder on the sd card is created for the installation log and to place the disable_lagfix file in.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lafaya:
I agree with most people here. Curio, your fix is great but the Colour fix should be an option, not enforced upon us. The reason is that Colour perception is a subjective thing and although your intentions are good (and welcomed), the way you placed the fix on top of the primary product (the lag fix) isn't.

Verizon recently did this trick (Bing anyone?) on their fascinate, and many were not very welcoming of it :)

No one is having a go against your efforts in bringing this great fix but I am sure people give give you more praise and less whining if you separate the fixes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
Yeah ok I understand but when say "So its not that safe..." without saying that you use an unofficial build and that you already had numerous crashs related to Android, that's an quit incomplete bug report that leads user to confusion.

And i'm sure you are an experienced overclocking user as I am.

Overclocking instabilities, especially if they lead to crash (most don't) can produce ANY other problem, most common is data corruption, but you never know, those are purely random.

But i'm sure your next bug reports will be more detailed ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gangstachew:
Just to make sure.

I had voodoo beta3 working on JM7. Let's say i wish to upgrade it to JM8

are these the steps i need to take?

1) create disable_lagfix file in voodoo folder

2) restart to disable lagfix

3) Flash JM8 like usual

4) flash voodoo through recovery again.

Am i right? Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JuWa:
But shouldn't be in the internal sd, not in external sd? On my phone it is in internal sd, even I do have an external sd inside also.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] supercurio:
You know the real reasons why I did only 1 build with Color enabled is

- to get reports. yep, it's beta stage !

- because currently i'm 1 guy working on the code, and you know, time is a limited ressource, if i take time to build multiple builds, it's time loss for anther task.

But I've heard people, sure.

I just need more time ^^

(and why not, more support on paypal too ! curio@free.fr, any donation welcome)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lafaya:
That's a valid argument :)
