Yep, same here. I should get about 14-15 hours today with all of my playing with live wallpapers, wifi calling, etc. Normally I get 20 hours which I find beyond acceptable. I think most people have poorly coded apps running along with all the T-Mo bloat.

If we didn't have SAMOLED's I think this sucker would go 36 hours easy. :)

Edit: I also wonder if some people just have crappy batteries. I may order some OEM replacements just for the heck of it. I have two off brands that work OK, but I don't get the same kind of life as my OEM.

Do I need to use a PIT file for KA7 .tar file? Or can I just flash with just the .tar file?
[Vibrant Android Development] khupp:
I flashed ka6 voodoo using odin. Now I can't disable out. I go into recovery and set it to disable. When I reboot out days diabling but quickly boots. I go back into recovery and it says disable on next boot. Should I odin and reformat?
[Vibrant Android Development] stevedrz:
Team, please check the new kernels by eugene373 and barakinflorida:

If we could have voodoo injected, if possible that would be great... Eugene doesn't do voodoo, but he says this : @stevedrz Just FYI I don't use Voodoo... The support is there for people that is willing to edit the CPIO! It's that Simple.

Can someone either assist me in editing CPIO, or edit the test4 and 5's kernel for cpio? Per supercurio: Voodoo initramfs directly. = Dragon

New kernel link: (non-voodoo, only RFS at moment, needs voodoo intramfs)

There is a free app in the market called voodoo reboot button or something close, try that, should reboot you without voodoo enabled
[Vibrant Android Development] BorisZX6R:
Please have some patience with me, but I want to ask before I screw something up...

1. Can I take the .tar file from the first post in this thread, the "Official Froyo release KA7+Voodoo" and use Odin3 to flash it to my phone? Currently I am on official KA6 updated through kies mini.

2. If I am able to do that, is the 512 pit file required as well for odin or do I just select the tar file using the PDA button in odin?

3. If I was to select re-partition in odin, would I benefit anything from it?

4. After this will I be able to revert back to complete stock through odin and possibly receive future OTA updates or kies mini updates?

Thank you.
[Vibrant Android Development] drhonk:
It looks like modem has a lot to do with battery life issue on both KA6 and KA7 based ROM. I down graded mine to KA6, even though the battery life is worse than KA5 but still much better than KA7.
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
Please have a little patience. I want the same as you, but let's be realistic. Eugene's already gone through 5 test kernels in 13 hours and has reported a 6th coming out to fix issues. Let's wait until he's settled on a build for a little while so we don't waste anyone's time and also don't confuse test results.

While voodoo (ext4) doesn't seem to affect battery life on any current builds, Eugene's also asking for linpack and quadrant comparisons. The last thing we want to do is muddle his tests with conflicting reports from people using voodoo injected versions of his kernels.
[Vibrant Android Development] khupp:
You're awesome, thanks! It did the trick.
[Vibrant Android Development] phrozenflame:
Hi,

I just updated from Rooted stock JI6 to KA6 using Kies Mini. Obviously, I'm no more rooted. :(

Anyway, so I read this:

Can anyone guide me in this regards? I have downloaded ODIN, as well as the SC KA6 Voodoo kernel in the OP.

I'd like to know:

- How can I flash that Kernel using ODIN? (ATM, I'm not rooted btw)

- Will flashing the Kernel remove all my apps etc? (I'm assuming it wont, but pls confirm :) )

- Any prerequisites before I use ODIN?

- What are the chances I'd brick my phone using ODIN? I've heard it isnt reliable.

Many Thanks :)
[Vibrant Android Development] khupp:
I was wrong. The same thing happens when I use the app. Is there another way to disable voodoo?
[Vibrant Android Development] Martezgarki:
Just use the CWM one... which you can just install ROM Manager and flash with it directly. Of course any flashing will need your phone to be rooted.

If you're just flashing kernel, it won't wipe anything :)
[Vibrant Android Development] phrozenflame:
That is the actual issue, I got 2.2 from Mini Kies and its unrooted, to root 2.2 official, it means going in bit of a loop. Cant root easily, also CWM isnt as simple, needs 3e or something, so I was wondering that just flashing with ODIN likely would be simpler...ofc I might be wrong here, pls correct me if that's the case...
[Vibrant Android Development] xxxSuperserieSxxx:
oppsss...edit my reply sorry
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
Yes ODIN is simpler....and this kernel will flash via odin without being rooted..just place the .tar for the version you need in the PDA line

For the other fellow...do not use Voodoo toggle app.. it won't disable and you'll get a nice brick out of it...been there, done that..you need to boot into the (red) recovery to disable lagfix
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
If you flash this you need to go to the market and d/l the superuser app...to root..

You will need to boot into recovery (the red one) and disable lagfix and let it reboot completely. You will also have to let it reboot completely when you ODIN it.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
Let me see

1. Ummm use the KA6+voodoo flash in ODIN PDA line

2. Just the PDA line

3. No repartition....no benefit for flashing the kernel

4. Yes, you will need to boot into RED CWM recovery and disable lagfix first

Thanks for the quick reply i'm totally noob, should i rename the "stock+Voodoo-Froyo-T959-UVKA6-unsigned-update.zip" to "update.zip" and put into /sd card/ then reboot into recovery mode and then reinstall pacakage after that disable lagfix then reboot completely? sorry im totally ignorant and newbie.

Edited:

Now i found odin3_v1.3 apps from this forum now how to do this to root my phone. Need your advise if i'm doing correct or not:

1) What to do is open ODIN then using PDA browse "stock+Voodoo-Froyo-T959-UVKA6.tar" file in my desktop then click START, then wait until totally reboot my phone?

2) Go to Market and download SUPERUSER app?

3) Reboot into recovery mode (the red one) and disable lagfix and let it reboot completely?

4) Then that's it so my phone now ROOTED?

Note: I only interested to root my phone only so i can adfree and other stuff apps that require rooting access. Thanks a lot, i highly appreciate ALL for the help.
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
You need to flash clockwirk mod recovery to flash this. Then there you will flash the voodoo zip file.

You don't have to rename it, just leave it to your root of you sd card.
[Vibrant Android Development] xxxSuperserieSxxx:
sorry im totally noob, please guide me how to do flashing first thing to do is copy voodoo zip file into my sd card? then reboot my phone using 3 buttons into recovery mode? then what's next?
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
I assume your already rooted.

1. Download Rom manager. there's an option there to flash clockwork mod recovery, select "galaxy S Vibrant".

2. Put the voodoo zip to the root of your internal SD.

3. Reboot into recovery mode via 3 buttons.

4. reinstall packages. (sometimes you have to do this 2 times so it will take you to the clockwork recovery. This is the green one.)

5. flash zip from sd card, choose zip from sd card. then select the voodoo zip file.

after that it will flash now then choose reboot, you have to wait because it's converting the RFS to ext4, usually it takes 5 minutes so just wait.

2. Tick PDA radio button and select the kernel file I downloaded in PDA link.

3. Leave everything as it is (Auto Re-boot and F.Reset Time is checked, Everything else is blanked and unchecked)

4. Hit the Start button in control panel menu.

Problem with KA6 Voodoo

I'm having a little trouble with Voodoo and I am hoping some will be able to tell me what to do. I apologize for the length of my post, but I want to make sure I can give you all of the details.

I flashed stock JI6 with Oden last week. I then upgraded to stock 2.2 with mini kies. I read somewhere that I could achieve root by flashing KA6 Voodoo with oden. So I flashed, but it looked like I had root (superuser was in my apps) but Titanium would work or Root explorer. I also couldn't remove Voodoo when I booted into the Red Voodoo Recovery. I did achieve root through Superoneclick and everything appears to work except for being able to remove Voodoo. I boot into the Red Recovery and select disable Voodoo and reboot. When I reboot the phone says removing partition (or something like that) but goes right to the Galaxy S screen. When I boot back to recovery it says that Voodoo is enabled and will be disabled on next boot. When I reboot it does the same thing. I have also tried the Voodoo toggle app without luck.

Is my best bet to oden back to JI6 and click repartition? I have read this sometimes causes the phone to brick.

I really appreciate your time and help. I also really love Voodoo! It makes a big different. I just want to make sure that I am not stuck where I am right now forever.

Question about Voodoo sound

Do the kernels listed in this thread support voodoo sound? Loving it on Dragon kernel, but the battery life is awful..
[Vibrant Android Development] xxxSuperserieSxxx:
Thanks for your reply what i was trying to achieve ONLY is to ROOT my phone. I have tried Super One Click but no luck, now tried Odin with step by step posted in my previous post. Im totally noob about this so you mean "Use CWM; much easier" something like this correct me if procedure is wrong.

1) Should i put "stock+Voodoo-Froyo-T959-UVKA6-unsigned-update.zip" into my sd card/ ?

2) Clockwork Recovery, use the “down” volume control on the Vibrant to scroll to “install zip from sdcard.” Press the Vibrant power button?

3) From the second menu screen, down-scroll to “choose zip from SD card” and select with the Vibrant power button?

Im so upset why Super One Click and Odin doesn't work for me, is this procedure will achieve ROOT. Need Help !!!

dragon kernel 3.2 to stock+voodoo stable

Hi,

Just wanted to ask if I still need to disable voodoo via clockwork coming from dragon kernel 3.2 when I decide to flash this kernel (KA7 stock+voodoo)? Or am I good to go with flashing since both support voodoo? :D

Thanks

nvm,

disabled voodoo. flashed this kernel. re-enabled voodo. all's well :)

Supercurio,

Thank you for building the Voodoo-injected stock Vibrant kernels for us!

Would it be possible for you to include Voodoo sound in your kernels going forward? I appreciate ttabbal's work with this; however many of us prefer stock kernels.

Thank you!
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
We cant really get voodoo sound without a source. Until we get it the devs can do some amazing things with it.

[Vibrant Android Development] Corvette Dave:
+1 I agree
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Voodoo sound requires kernel source in order to compile it in. This is why you only see voodoo sound in kernels that have had source released, such as the i9000, and is also what ttabbals dragon kernel is based off of. We have to wait for the 2.2 vibrant source before we can put voodoo sound in our kernels.
[Vibrant Android Development] tseada:
I once had the same problem with SuperOneClick.

Try running it with your SD mounted.
[Vibrant Android Development] Martezgarki:
Maybe not for the voodoo master...
[Vibrant Android Development] drhonk:
That is true but you won't get all of its features if you inject voodoo sound to the existing kernel.

Flashed voodoo on Axura 2.2.6 and I have 2 issues.

1. Now when I plug into my pc to do mass storage mode the external sd shows up as a cd drive and I can't write to it. I've tried formatting the card and all with no change.

2. Sometimes when restarting the phone a flash of color happens at the top of the vibrant screen and the screen freezes. I have to battery pull and reboot to get past it. Happens like every other time o restart.

Both these issues always go away when I disable voodoo

via XDA App

looking to use a voodoo kernal to get rid of rfs, but am confused as to which to use, I have the official 2.2, which says it's KA6, but in the OP, it says official froyo is KA7, so which one should I flash with odin?
[Vibrant Android Development] ssiddiqi1:
You could use either one of them KA6+voodoo or KA7+voodoo
[Vibrant Android Development] BorisZX6R:
I had stock KA6 via kies mini, and I flashed the KA6 Stock + Voodoo kernel using Odin, and it runs great, faster, no lag, just so much better...

Now I want to go back to complete stock for whatever reason, future updates or wahtever, how would I do this?

Do I just odin back to JFD and let kies mini update me to latest or would I have to disable this lagfix somehow and then ODIN back to JFD?!
[Vibrant Android Development] compuguy1088:
As of now the source has been released by eugene.

Now that the source is release, can we get voodoo sound, colorfix, and lagfix into a COMPLETE STOCK kernel?

After struggling how to root my SGS Vibrant, i finally get to root now thanks a lot highly appreciated your efforts and help me and others..
[Vibrant Android Development] All~G1:
Glad to see you feeling more comfortable with flashing your phone borris. I would say that in the 3 years I've owned and android phone, every "official update" has fallen short.

In the case that you do feel the need to flash back to stock then you'll have to odin back, not necessarily to JFD, as there are more recent tar files that you can flash to.
[Vibrant Android Development] BorisZX6R:
I understand I would use Odin to go back but does it mean I need to disable the lagfix before I do that or can I just go straight with odin?
[Vibrant Android Development] All~G1:
I'd say disable it just to be safe, but I dont think it's necessary.
[Vibrant Android Development] FRuiTBoOT:
Yes you need to disable voodoo before odining back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] BorisZX6R:
There are several options in the Voodoo lagfix menu...

disable lagfix (I think I need to choose that option)

but there is also /system lagfix off

do I need to choose that option as well?
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
Disable will get the job done don't need to turn off, but I'm pretty sure you can odin without disabling it, guess it doesn't hurt to disable first
[Vibrant Android Development] BorisZX6R:
I just wanted to take a risk and do Odin only without disabling.

used pit 512 and jfd tar file checked repartition in odin and voila.

back to stock jfd and then I used kies mini to get to official ka6

nothing on the external sd or internal sd was touched in the process.

so I formatted both the internal and external SD

I guess the internal sd portion is seen by the OS as external SD so it is left untouched even though there is an actual external SD as well...
[Vibrant Android Development] BorisZX6R:
Also not sure if this was mentioned before but my old videos taken while on JI6 were in the .3gp format, but videos I took on KA6 with the voodoo injected stock kernel is in the .mp4 format
[Vibrant Android Development] shehrammajid:
I think this has to do with the new camera software on froyo and not the kernel. Look around in settings for the camera software and there should be a way to switch it back to .3gp.

Remember to hit thanks if I helped :)
[Vibrant Android Development] BorisZX6R:
I can care less if it is .3gp or .mp4 I just did not realize until I recorded a new video clip...
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Well, technically you don't if you are using Odin, all you need to do is repartition the phone, this will overwrite all partitions and reformat them back to RFS. Just make sure that you have the dbdata.rfs file from the JFD tar in whichever package that you will be using Odin on... :)
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
No, it's hard coded into the Cam app. mp4 it is, more compatible anyway. ;)
