JT has three kernels:

0.2 voodoo stock speed (1000)

1000 w/bootanimation voodoo

1200 w/bootanimation voodoo

So, if you flash one of the two with boot animation, then you can change it. If you flash the first one, then your boot animation is stock.

Dirrk also has kernels that do offer boot animation changes and ones that DON'T...so make sure you pick the correct ones if you desire to change it.
[Fascinate Android Development] cckeeler:
Can anyone verify that flashing a different Voodoo kernel over another one without disabling voodoo was successful? I successfully flashed voodoo on my phone, just the standard kernel, but didn't notice any difference and I am still experiencing the lag, maybe even worse, so I wanted to try out another one but I don't want to cause myself headaches caused by not disabling voodoo.
[Fascinate Android Development] tats_06:
Per instructions in op, you may flash voodoo over voodoo. ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] maahfu:
Does this Vodoo mod use large amounts of space like the quick lag did?
[Fascinate Android Development] cckeeler:
I have a couple questions in regard to voodoo. I understand that I have to disable Voodoo in order to create a backup, but what if I want to restore a backup, do I need to disable voodoo? I am scared to death to disable voodoo because of all the nightmare stores I have been reading. Also, if I want to completely get rid of voodoo do I have to go through the process of replacing the mbr and flashing the stock kernel, or can I just disable and then flash the stock kernel?

I appreciate any help anyone can give me.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrKows:
how ??

OK so heres my deal... I rooted then did the CWM thread to make a back up, then installed voodoo lagfix 0.2, now if i want to unroot my phone when 2.2 comes out can i just clockwork to before i had voodoo installed and then just unroot, or do i have to do all the crazy adb shell commands???
[Fascinate Android Development] jrobinsky:
so i tried installing D02-Kernel-SV-1200 and it doesnt have the higest of scores and froze one time, and crashed another. When i rebooted into recovery mode it had some error (E:can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (invalid argument) )

I tried to install both

D012-Kernel-LV-1200 and D012-Kernel-SV-1200. and They both seemed to work, but never heard the robot voice the phone instantly reboots, any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] Dan Ang:
So I re-enable voodoo by just removing the "disable" file in my SD card??
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Yaup.

[Fascinate Android Development] yonith:
is it really noticable though?

I'm really on the fence as to whether I should root and do the voodoo lag fix. I know that I definitely wouldn't want to overclock because I already keep my screen brightness on max and wouldn't be willing to sacrifice any more battery life. I do occasionally experience some lag, but I'm just wondering if this lag fix is really even all that noticeable. It seems like many just do it for the Quadrant score/bragging rights/just for the heck of it and that some report that they still experience lag anyway. Any thoughts?
[Fascinate Android Development] cckeeler:
Personally voodoo seemed like more of a hassle then it was worth, I ended up uninstalling it. I didn't notice much of a difference outside of quadrant scores.
[Fascinate Android Development] itznfb:
So I put the disable_lagfix file in place and now my phone just boot loops with no way to get into recovery.... I'd agree. Voodoo is more hassle than it's worth.
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Use uninstaller from HERE.

Pull sd and get uninstaller on card from computer.

Then follow steps from first post of voodoo removal.

You can still get to clockwork this way.

With device off hold both vol. up and down and push and hold power button to get in stock recovery (blue text) highlight apply sdcard:update.zip and hit home button. Now you should be in clockwork (green text). In clockwork the back button is accept.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
To most I would say simply, "Don't bother".

2.2 will be out soon enough (one can only hope) and we'll have a new batch of ROMS and a new batch of kernels...hopefully a bit more stable than voodoo.

After having gone back and forth a few times I can honestly say, at least for myself, the hassles with voodoo far outweigh any benefits. In fact, after several days of use, it seems as though the benefits lessen greatly for many people. The phone seems to slow down...to the point flashing out of voodoo and back into stock almost seems to speed things up a bit.

...at this point I am using blackhole ROM .0.6 from sonofskywalker. Boots before the animation can finish. A few tweaks using spare-parts (on the market) and the phone flies. I'll be using this ROM for the foreseeable future.
[Fascinate Android Development] itznfb:
Yea that's how I always got into recovery. After I disabled lag fix it went through the voice step 1 step 2 then just sat at the samsung screen. Then when I hit power it would just sit at the samsung screen. When I tried to get into recovery it would blink twice then just sit at a black screen.

Luckily there was a nice guy at the Verizon store by where I work and he plugged it in and used software that looked like odin but wasn't. Flashed it back to stock. Works fine now.

Again, I still wouldn't bother with Voodoo. I provides little to no benefit with very high risk. Even if the phone is recoverable it's a pain in the ass if the smallest thing goes wrong. On mine, I think it just lost power for a split second during the flash and that was it.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
I want...

[Fascinate Android Development] itznfb:
actually now that i think about it... it probably was odin just without the name in the title bar. it's the image he used to flash that i want.
[Fascinate Android Development] thefunkbot:
help plz

so i was trying to disable voodoo and when i did the restart i heard the voice and stuff and it went to the verizon animation, and then i walked away for a few minutes and when i got back the screen was black so i thought it was done and the phone was just asleep, but then when i pressed the power button all the soft keys lit up and have been lit up with a black screen for like 30 minutes...

Did i screw something up? or should i just keep waiting?

EDIT: idk what i did wrong but the black screen never went away for like 2 hours, then i just went into recovery and did nandroid restore...

EDIT#2: now everytime i turn the phone on the lady says "DATA PARTITION WIPE DETECTED" or something

EDIT#3: lol. deleted the voodoo folder and rebooted... the lady said all the same things as the first time when it failed but this time it worked and took like 3 minutes total.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Yes. the image. Why hasn't any Nice VZW employee provided that to us yet, I wonder...?

Anyone else having problems with titanium backup, i just updated it to the newest version, and now its telling me im not rooted no more? but the phone is rooted.
[Epic 4G General] coodaddy1:
Are you running a custom Kernel? I just had this same issue yesterday. Let us know if you get it working and if you're able to restore backups. I got it working, but could not restore backups. I keep getting a parsing error.

[Epic 4G General] tomfubarr:
Using stock kernal

No im using the stock rom and kernal. all i have done with this phone is root it and now once i updated the backup program now its saying that it cant get root rights.
[Epic 4G General] IBNobody:
Running superuser.apk?

Can you still get root from a terminal session (su)?

Are you using the latest busybox?

Have you tried letting it install its own app-only busybox?

All my problems I've had with TiB have been with superuser.apk and busybox.
[Epic 4G General] amosher13:
Might not be permanent root then, check other root apps like rom manager or something. Parse error is prob the version of busybox you have, clic problems in tb, then download busybox from within app.

On stock rom/flash a rooted kernel, search the dev section and check again, the joeykrim root is janky

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rnns1981:
Gents, good evening.

I already made my homework about rooting and limitations, but one question remais uncleared for me.

I know there's some differences between the international I9000 and the Brazilian I9000B, but, after rooting, will a I9000 rom (stock of modified) work on my I9000B phone?

I don't care about loosing the TV facility, but, as I'll use the phone in different countries in Latin America, I need to keep the 3 band 850/1900/2100 for 3G connection.

Thanks for your help on this.

I've tried to flash this "[ROM][FROYO] Tayutama Edition v1.0.0 [I9000XXJPM]" in my i9000B (vivo) and it wasn't a good expirience! :)

After rebooting, touchscreen stoped working, actually it almost work, I

had to touch a bunch times to get a response!

I had a hard work to flash my official ROM again!

Definitly there is something incompatible with our brazilian model!

I think we will have to wait the official update, there is a buzz that

samsung brazil will release on dezember (it's hard to believe, lol).

Want an advice: be patiente and wait the official update (through Kies).

Regards

No,

I Have de same problem when installed voodoo. Bad touch screen sensivity, no Digital TV, no Bluetooth.

Waiting for voodoo release or oficial froyo release.

Sad to know, the same model is being released in many south american countries, it was just released in argentina, and I was considering it, but if no custom roms work, it will be hard tio part with my nexus
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rnns1981:
Does anyone have the Brazilian stock rom (unbranded)?

I bought mine from Claro and after 3 days struggling with that f*cking Yahoo search bar and no GMAIL app I decided to flash a new firmware and the only unbranded I found for the I9000B was from Argentina, which works pretty well but I’d prefer a Brazilian one.

If no firmware is available, just the Product Code of an unbranded I9000B to use with Kies will do the job.

Thanks again

Go to page 12, there you'll find links for Brazil/TIM firmware (I tested and it worked fine) and Argentina/Unbranded (Which I decided to keep and use, as it has no operators crap and both, system ans Swype, have portuguese as option).

still only 2.1, right ?

and NO 2.2 on the horizon, much less custom roms ?

i still don't know if there are no custom stuff, cause theres little comunity, or because samsung has to release sources or something like that.

[Wildfire General] seshvasan89:
I am using Wildpuzzle 8.0.1 ROM and when i used Rom manager to partition, it fails!!!

First ques.. how to do a ext partition ?

2nd ques.. If there's a ext partition does every app I install gets installed in sd card ??
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
use GParted or ADB.

for GParted, just dl the iso from the site and install on cd so its like a live cd, and then restart computer and boot from cd, from there just make an ext partition to your needs.

ADB can also be used, i don't really know the steps but i know it works.

Umm i don't think ALL apps get installed onto the sd.
[HD2 General] PhoneConnect247:
It was a loop hole I'm sure hundreds of thousands of people exploited and cost T-Mobile millions but they were nice enough to take 2 and a half years to fix but for some reason people seem to think it was they're god given right to pay less then most and still get the same service. Anywho glad its over and if you were a good customer t-mobile are nice enough to give you a discount on a data plan
[HD2 General] Paten:
It's not closed. Mine still works. It was a maintenance error.
[HD2 General] xnifex:
ha this has been a thing since back when the MDA came out & it went out then for a few days/weeks & then came back. People are cheap & will do anything to save $$$ each month. I'm happy with my $20/month service
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
people think they are entitied to stuff and as a result get pissed when forced to follow the rules.

I am not buying that maint issue either. They ran a query to see what is up and closed it, (if it was a maint issue, one would have ever seen the message stating your plan is incompatable with your device and you need to upgrade message) they then "fix" it for the customer who call in and complain and the rest just update their data plan as requested.

Eventually they are going to close that loophole and that's just too bad if you don't like it and as a consumer you can take your business elsewhere if you think you can get a better deal
[HD2 General] Paten:
I never had to call T-Mobile. I hadn't used the internet all day and when I did, I had no issues what so ever. Everything was fixed before I even noticed.

T-Mobile Web (Unlimited T-Zones) $5.99 Restoration

Maybe they will close it but I'm sure they will let me know before they cut it off so I can pick another plan. In the mean time, I'll just go on saving $14.00 every month.

I think you're just angry because you don't have T-Zones.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
It's the principle of the thing. People are *****ing because something that have used for years, knowingly against the "rules"(or against what T-Mobile wants if you will) is finally getting closed off. I mean, I used to have SunCom, and got my unlimited data plan from them grandfathered in at 14.99 a month when they got bought by T-Mobile...but it would only allow me to get EDGE speeds. I was told upgront about T-Zones, but that if I switched to a "smart" phone(coming from SunCom with the Excalibur no less) I would have to upgrade to the "full" internet package at 20USD. I mean seriously, T-Zones is meant for feature phones. It's not there so that people "in the know" can proxy around the rules and get cheap internet, its so that people with non-smartphones(the poor souls) can just get online via a regular phone to do simple tasks...nothing super network intensive. The 20USD plan isn't just T-mobile getting more money out of you because they can, its because if you have a smartphone, you are more than likely streaming video or music, downloading programs, getting email...all that jazz, constantly, and it all uses bandwidth...which ain't free. And its MUCH more bandwidth than a dumbphone checking email or IM'ing uses. Anywho, thats my peice. Like it or leave it I don't really care.
[HD2 General] Paten:
I don't know what rules you're talking about. I bought my HD2 outright when it came out so I didn't have to change my plan. The T-Mobile clerk didn't tell me anything about having to change plans. Probably because I wasn't getting a subsidized phone requiring a new plan. If it makes you happy, if I upgrade to an Android phone on T-Mobile I will be required to upgrade to another data plan as soon as the system scans my IMEI number on the network. I'll bet they will have the same requirement for new WP7 phones when they come out. So in all likelihood I will be required to get a new data plan with my very next phone purchase, whether I buy the phone outright or not.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
might want to go brush up on t-mobile's terms and conditions.....they clearly state that certain internet plans are meant for certain phones....like I said if you don't like it, too bad you can go elsewhere if you think you can get a good deal. No reason to get all pissy about it. and yes you are ripping off t-mobile and you know it's wrong so you know what they say about karma.....
[HD2 General] Paten:
The only person getting pissy about it is you. Go back and read what I wrote. If and when T-Mobile requires me to change my plan, they will let me know. If they aren't telling me I need to change, then I don't need to change. It's really not for you to decide what the rules are.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
Not for me to decide? Wake up grasshopper I don't make the rules Tmo does lol.........(amd btw I never said it was up to me nor did I imply it was) I just told you to go back and read what TMo's terms of use are and they do not include using a $5 and $10 plan on the HD2

Do you guys think that for even a moment that it was some maint issue? lol....keep dreaming....

Funny how those of us who are on the supported plans for the phone did not get the "Please upgrade your data plan" message even though we were on the network at the same time as all of you guys who got the message...

I think it's funny when you get all of the whiners in here saying OMG I can't getz Internetz on my HD2 using an unsupported planz anymorez....even though they knew they were in the wrong....

If you are grandfathered in on a specific unlimited plan, that's fine but you have no room to complain when you go buy a $10 plan and try to use it with a smart phone and you get smaked down like a redheaded step child.
[HD2 General] Paten:
Ah, I see now. You're just trolling.
[HD2 General] mknewman:
Folks, I switched to the $20 plan yesterday after 4 days of almost solid outages. It would work occasionally, but mostly not.

One call to T-Mo the gal said there was a issue and they were working it, but when I called back later they said that there was a software change this weekend in order to cut off the access that we were using. I explained that I had the service for quite a while, back to when I bought my Dash, and she looked at my records and saw that I bought the HD2 as an upgrade and said my account had not been updated when I bought the phone and it was not eligable for T-Zones service, and wanted me to get the $30 service. I talked her into the $20 plan, and it seems to be working fine, although T-Zones doesn't show up on my plan online anymore neither does the $20 plan.

I suspect the rumor about the new CEO coming in and tidying up things is correct, and anyway, now mail works properly (SMTP outbound) and some other apps I have wanted to use as well.

[HD2 General] kidrythm:
tmo readz xda...

i have the $30 plan since April on my Leo, not gonna change cuz $10 isn't a big deal...

btw, no message sent to my toy.
[HD2 General] bogdatov:
Well ... yesterday I almost pulled a trigger and moved to $20 total internet package. And I'm glad I didnt, because TZones works again on my HD2. I know it is a loophole. And I WAS and WILL get pissed when they will close it.

Why ? In addition to be used to have it :) there are other things too

E.g. I'm on grandfathered plan with 600 shared minutes. I cannot move to 750 EM+ plan W/O a contract for the same price, because I will lose my TZones. I cannot add "kids free" lines to my account, because it is only for EM/EM+ plans. So I lose free extra line and 150 extra minutes a month just because I want to keep $5.99 TZones. Or I purchased my HD2 for full price (instead of 2 for $200 promo or 1 for $160 promo), because I'm not able to buy it subsidized from TMO w/o buying total internet and losing my $5.99 TZones.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
Ah, I see you're just ignorant of the facts as they are lol
[HD2 General] Paten:
No, that would be you. lol yourself.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
lol gee I wish I was like 2 again so I could think of something cool like that to say lol.......
[HD2 General] Paten:
Tell you what, you find where it says anywhere from T-Mobile that I need to have a different plan then T-zones for my HD2 and post a link to it and I'll admit you're right. You just saying it doesn't mean anything.
[HD2 General] Paten:
How does that apply to T-Zones on the HD2?
[HD2 General] kidrythm:
They will catch you using your hd2 on a dumbphone plan through high techery means that are currently being developed in the Tmo secret labs.

Then, they will adjust your plan, and send you the bill.

After you call and scream at some overworked and underpaid phone jockey, they will quote the BOLD print already posted here.

and you will be all angwy 'n ****e...
[HD2 General] Paten:
Where does it say I can't use T-Zones with the HD2 in there? I'm not seeing it. You only have to change your plan if you upgrade and they subsidize your phone purchase. They do not require you to do that if you buy your HD2 for full price off contract. Until T-Mobile calls me and tells me different, I am doing no wrong. If they ever change the rules, I will either change my plan or my phone. That's it. I promise I won't get angry or whine about it however much you may wish me to.
[HD2 General] djdanska:
I upgraded to my hd2 using the my.t-mobile.com site and got it at the full upgrade price and they never took off my t-zones. It just said it wont work until i get a proper data plan. I have a feeling if i called up customer care, they would have made me take off the t-zones. In fact they try every single time i call. "Your HD2 will be able to access the full internet if you let me change your data plan!" Don't touch my data plan. Im going to lose it in a few weeks when i give 3 of my lines to my family and transfer my line to my dell netbook account.
