Does MissedMessage indicate the type of message received (e.g., VM, email, missed call, text msg, etc.) or is it simply an alert that something was received?

In some settings, such as a meeting in a conference room, one might not want to power on the phone and fiddle with it to find out what type of communication was received.
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
Remember when you'd power off Windows and it'd run chkdsk when you started back up? I've actually corrupted my Vibrant by taking the battery out while the phone was still powered on. The idea is to power off/shutdown your phone prior to switching batteries or anything of that nature to prevent data corruption or loss of data since the information could still be hanging around in a buffer/cache somewhere waiting for a scheduler to fire so it'll write to disk.

I don't think it's often a phone will randomly power off without going through it's shutdown process. If you're battery runs dead, it'll still run it's shut down processes and ensure buffers flush to disk and then power off.
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
No, it's just a general notification. You have some control over what items trigger the notification. I really only use it for text messages. Email isn't all that important to me on my phone since I'm a programer and I'm chained to my desktop/laptop most of the day :)
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
"All those Linux boxes" are journaling, I can assure you. Have you ever had an app request "force close" on your phone? You just lost data.

If you could choose to "just shut it down properly," there would be no problem. Journaling exists to protect us against an imperfect software world.

EXT2, EXT4 are filesystem formats. Journaling is a feature that can be turned on or off on various filesystem formats.
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
Umm, Journalling isn't going to save you from a Force Close. The application crashed. Whatever data was in memory is lost regardless of journalling or not.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Sorry but you can't have both. You have to choose whether you want

A) Super IO kernel

or

B) JL4 Voodoo kernel

Both are excellent, but I myself prefer the undeniable smoothness and reliability of Voodoo. One thing to note is that the Super IO kernel tends to run best if you install it immediately after installing a fresh rom. Just a tip if you end up going with it. But rest assured, Voodoo will not disappoint. :) Hope this helps.
[Vibrant Android Development] GreggoryD502:
Thanks ice for clearing that up. I just flashed the jk6 voodoo and I got kinda worried.

[Vibrant Android Development] OmniNut:
Ohh, you know what, I got confused cause people always posted that 'nero + jl4 + super_io' was a great combination, so I guess they meant jl4 modem + super_io huh? Thanks for the info =). So I guess my question changes to...

If I wanted to install jl4 modem and super_io which would I install first?

and..

When you say "install immediately after installing a fresh rom" do you mean litterally right after you boot up, or do you mean you should install the kernel after installing a rom in general(meaning just install the kernel before you start tinkering with your phone?)

Sorry for the questions, I would just hate to mess up my phone :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
To answer your first question you will need to install Super IO first and then the JL4 modem. The order you install these normally wouldn't matter, but the Super IO kernel also comes packaged with the JL1 modem (which you don't want trust me). So that is why you need to do Super IO and then the modem, so the JL4 overwrites the JL1. Hope that makes sense! :)

And to answer your second question: What you need to do is flash the rom you would like to run through clockwork recovery. After it has finished installing DO NOT reboot your phone. Instead you'll want to flash the Super IO kernel and then the JL4 modem for reasons described above. Do this all in one sitting before rebooting and you will be golden.
[Vibrant Android Development] OmniNut:
Yeah, that makes perfect sense to me! Thanks tons man - very helpful.

I just flashed JL4 on top of Nero V1 myself. Restoring apps now. Haptic Feedback appears to work as well.

Hey guys I just installed a lag fix it seemed to work alright except now I cant install apps I just get an error stating there isn't enough space. I tried formating the data partition in cw and went as far as flashing a new rom but still can't install apps. Any ideas??
[Vibrant Android Development] GreggoryD502:
Id be curious as to what you think of jl4. Jk6 seems to be working great for me. I looked on my settings and under baseband it still shows jl1. I know I downloaded jk6 because Linda told me that voodoo was installing.

[Vibrant Android Development] tq745:

[Vibrant Android Development] smartmind:
does anyone know how to solve this?

No matter which rom I use, Macnut R14 or Gingerbread clone R2, if I flashed Voodoo5 Jl4, my external sd card will be launched as a CD ROM when I connect my Vibrant with my PC. I can only read storage of the external card but could not delete or write any files to it, does any one know how to deal with this?
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
Mine also says JL1. I haven't noticed any issues other than 2 apps that won't upgrade. I think it's an issue with the market. I've seen this before but was able to get through it after a reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
Is it possible you have > 2.9GB on your SD's?
[Vibrant Android Development] smartmind:
The storage of external card showed in computer is correct, it's 7.4 G, but the problem is that it shows as a CD ROM but not a usb storage, so I cannot put any files into it from computer via cable.
[Vibrant Android Development] amdeus04:
Have you tried formating it from the phone then trying? I seen some where before this was a fix for another simliar issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I've seen this said quite a few times in this thread and just want to clear up the misconception that flashing a new kernel will change your baseband. The baseband is in no way, shape, or form the kernel. So when you flash the JK2, JK6, JL1 or JL4 kernel the baseband is not going to change because that is not what you are changing. If you want to change where it says baseband then you need to flash a new modem. The baseband = the modem, NOT the kernel.

Just an FYI - by using OCLF with the Super IO kernel you are not getting any kind of added bonus. You would get the exact same quad scores and performance as if you'd used any stock 2.2 kernel with OCLF. The Super IO kernel improves IO performance for RFS file systems. When you use OCLF you are creating an EXT2 partition inside your RFS partition. Everything will run as if it were on EXT2 because that is where all the data is transferred to. I don't understand why so many ppl don't understand this concept. Using OCLF in any kernel whether it be the Eugene's Super IO or Supercurio's Voodoo does not help or grant any extra bonus

AT ALL.
[Vibrant Android Development] supercurio:
Hi! This is an issue when vold.fstab (in the ROM) don't match with the kernel.

You may verify that both are the same version ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] smartmind:
So this means that the Voodoo JL4 is not compatible with Macnut R14 or Gingerbread clone R2? Do you have any ideas of how to solve this problem? Maybe by restoring the vold.fstab from other roms which are compatible with Voodoo? If it is true, where I can get the vold.fstab?
[Vibrant Android Development] hdub420:

Is it just me or do i get battery drain using this kernel..

I'm on nero v.1 with jl1+voodoo,

I used to get 16-18 hours on battery with Super io,

I received 16 hours but more than half of them were from stand by..

[Vibrant Android Development] Steeltippin:
Can someone give me a quick run down of the differences between the Kernels.

I Know JL does not have haptic which is what I am running now, but what do I gain from the other three?
[Vibrant Android Development] TunedFish:

[Vibrant Android Development] OmniNut:
Not sure if anyone is having this problem, and what the issue might be but... I go into my market and when I tried to go into "MyApps" and it gives me a server error. So basically I can't access "MyApps" from the recurring "server" issue. Seems others are having this problem too. Can anyone shed any light on what's going?

I'm running nero v1. + jl4 voodoo

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
I meant is there more than 2.9GB of data on the SD card. There's been some posts about a bug that if you have more than 2.9GB on your SD, you might not be able to get to it/mount it/navigate it. I have a 16GB in my phone, but I moved everything off of it-- formatted it-- and started over. I didn't move any of the data back on to it. I'll fill it up again and see what happens.

Previously, I kept getting errors "Parameter is incorrect" or "No space available" So we'll see.
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
I think the assumption is if you're flashing to JL4 the baseband/radio would match. At least that was my assumption when flashing a stock kernel. I can understand if you're using a ROM one of the teams/devs put together and they went with a different radio version as their default.
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
Lagfix confusion.

I don't think a lot of people understand exactly what the lagfix does and WHY it speeds things up.

As these threads get older, there's more and more implied knowledge that's assumed. They move fast and it's hard to keep up with what's what. It wasn't until recently I found out these ROM releases are separate from kernels and such. :eek:

There's really no where to find all this information out unless you spend countless hours reading through 115 pages of posts some of which have plenty of FUD. So it can be a little confusing. I"m fairly technical and a software developer by trade--- and I still have some difficult times understand WTF everyone is talking about-- where/what/why.. LOL!! :D
[Vibrant Android Development] icebrkr:
That's odd. I'm running the same setup without any problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
You are correct. The custom roms on here include both the kernel and the modem which is why the baseband changes when switching roms. Normally the modem isn't included with kernels, although I know Eugene included the JL1 modem (at first, could very well be JL4 modem now) with his Super IO kernel which is why the baseband changed when flashing it.

Dammit! Afraid I'm guilty! Lol :p

You are correct though!
[Vibrant Android Development] jonwilly:
Flash multi Kernels

So if I have one of these Kernels installed with Voodoo active and want to move to another Kernel do I have to undo voodoo before flashing the new Voodoo Kernel?
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
If you are flashing to another voodoo kernel then you do not have to undo voodoo. You can flash right over the top and all will be good.
[Vibrant Android Development] jonwilly:
Thank you!

EDIT: [Removed] my tip for a fix doesnt work

just checked the market.. i got the same issue too. i cant access my downloads lol

anyways.. can you fellow members that are using this comment more on battery life? im tempted to flash but i've seen a couple of posts saying they've noticed battery drain.. runnning axura 2.2 stock for now.
[Vibrant Android Development] ljv:
What I'm seeing is that sitting idle, it looks okay. As soon as I start using it, I see battery going down pretty quick. Should be noted that I've got an accurate battery mod. Anyway I'm plotting the history right now with system panel to see what is running and using up CPU. Hopefully will be able to figure out from there...
[Vibrant Android Development] xtone:
cool! please keep us posted on that.

Also when you say "pretty quick" would you say around a 10% drop within 1 hour of moderate/heavy use? just wondering if that's a decent estimation..
[Vibrant Android Development] TunedFish:
I used Battery Left to test 3 kernels with 3g, google voice w/sync on, sipdroid on, among other battery draining apps. I browsed the net using the default browser and the j JL1 modem using GingerClone Final (original version) for 30 mins straight. The results from Battery Left estimate were: dow 1.3 = 2:30hrs; JL4 = 3:30hrs; super io = 4:00hrs. These were extreme tests to drain the battery for reconditioning.
[Vibrant Android Development] ljv:
That's exactly what I saw this past Saturday. 10% within an hour with moderate/heavy use. I ended up going back to JI6 due to my vmail not working. Got the vmail working by using visual voicemail on JL4 now so I'm running it for a while. I don't see as much drop today. But then again, I'm not using the phone as much and I don't have the exact same apps that I had before. Sorry, I know that's a lot of different variables and this isn't a "controlled test". I'm just winging it ;)

--edit--

One thing I just noticed System Panel showing is that Wi-Fi Calling showed 1.3% CPU usage for 1m 33s. Weird cause I thought I "froze" that app with Titanium.

--edit2--

Never mind, I actually didn't have wi-fi calling frozen. Sorry it's Monday and I'm ready for a vacation!

I don't believe there should be any issues with that at all. I think the only time you actually have to disable voodoo now is if you are flashing an entirely new rom. :)

Make sure the bootanimation is actually flashable through clockwork first though.

Having an issue with JL4 and Voodoo. Installed JL4 with CWM, no errors or issues. Restored apps but not system data with Titanium. Then after verifying all was working installed the JL4+Voodoo kernel. This also installed properly.

My device is still lagging, and when I do the quadrant test (I know its not the best) I am getting around 1200. I read that most are seeing 1600 with no lag.

What should I do? When I boot into recovery it shows the voodoo options in CWM and it says that it is active....

[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Supercurio stated early in this thread that you can only safely flash new roms without disabling voodoo only if that rom is voodoo (ext4) friendly. The current nero release has the voodoo kernel in it already, therefore can be flashed safely, thanks for testing that out, I was wondering about it. However, if flashing a rom with a stocked kernel, or not stated specifically as being voodoo or ext4 compatible, you should always disable voodoo before flashing.

Just saw your post right after that about flashing the voodoo kernel right after flashing the rom, I wonder how that would work with a rom not written with voodoo to begin with, such as macnut, gc, or a previous nero build, some that flashes with a stock kernel. Does it expect to write to an rfs partition, or does the flash not care of the partitioning, and its more about the kernel thats booted after flashing? If I had a pc handy I'd be testing this out with another rom.

Well, after running all day with system panel monitoring, I didn't find anything out of the ordinary. While it didn't drain as bad as it did this past Saturday, it definitely drains quicker then when I was running JI6. I'm sure the constant back and forth flashing doesn't help battery life either. Probably pick a release and just run with it for a few days before you can make a decision on battery life. Of course now that JL5 is out.... :D

I just installed Voodoo for the first time and got an error message of sorts -- it said "system partition space usage too high to convert to Ext4" and then "missing 2 MB" and then it canceled the /system conversion.
