I'm not going to preach the morals of piracy but just remember it's normal people making most of the apps, not some faceless mega rich software company.

There's free versions of most of them anyway... or you could support the hard work of the developers and pay the small fee. Most are only about £0.63, which is hardly much. You can barely buy a bar of chocolate for that these days!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futur1sm:
Well said, I'm normally the first one to find the price of games, movies etc. stupidly priced these days (and normally wait a good while after they come out so I can buy them at a reasonable price). But the apps are very useful for the cheap price most of them are and I'm very impressed with the Android market! :D
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konflikt1911:
I just came from the hd2 and for some reason i cant get anything right on this phone but i did on that one i cant get perma root to stick and i was wondering if anyone knew of a good vanilla 2.2 or 2.3 that will also support my web chats like tango qik and etc?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jggimi:
Qik does not run on Gingerbread (2.3) based ROMs. Tango requires a properties file change to operate correctly on CM7 (2.3), see the CM7 FAQ for details.

It is not clear from your post if your problem phone is the HD2 or the MT4G, but you will not be able to load a custom ROM without permanent root.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Cyanogen is the best AOSP ROM you can get. CM6.1.2RC2 has everything working correctly. Qik, Tango, ooVoo, all work w/o flaw.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konflikt1911:
yea the problem phone is the mt4g i cant get the root to stick is there an easy method i did one i found on youtube using visionary but the s is always on, and thanks neidlinger if it doesnt work out are the factory stock roms still around to restore and if you know of any youtube tutorials id appreciate im a visual learner but thanks for the help
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hughitt1:
Is there a list anywhere which includes all of the ROMs being developed that are compatible with mt4g?

Thanks :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
As far as "s=on" sticking to your phone. I cannot answer that. I've personally tried every method posted on this board and the Cyanogen Wiki and i've yet to encounter a problem with any of them not working. All of them have worked properly. Yes i've unrooted and rerooted my phone SEVERAL times.

You Tube has several good videos on how to turn S=off, from what i've read. But i cannot recommend one. I've never used one. the ADB/VISIONary methods are top all i've done.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oscarkb:
I was wondered the same. I might try CM7

Thanks
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Snarksneeze:
Well, this is one of those times that searching did me no good at all. Now I'm even more confused than when I started ;)

My current ROM is missing the "Location" widget (4x6) from the Sense set. I personally don't use it, but my friend swears by it and this is the only thing holding him back from switching to the new ROM.

Before you suggest that I go to the ROM's page and request there: The chef is very busy and never replies. The other users don't seem to know where to find it either.

Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobe. You're my only hope!

http://www.tabbal.net/files/Dragon-Kernel-Voodoo-OC-v3.2.zip

Just to keep the OP short, description and such are here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=922510

Changes from 3.1.2:

Voodoo Sound v4.

OC the bus slightly at 1.4Ghz, still deciding if it's worth while.

Increase the refresh rate for the GPU. Increases FPS cap to 65. Turn off the screen once after boot to make sure it's working.

Convert Android logger to a module, disabled at boot. insmod /lib/modules/logger.ko to enable.

Enabled charge current readout.

Increase kernel Hz to 1000, seems to smooth things out a little more.
[Vibrant Android Development] bartek25:
FIRST ! , on it

and first to downmlaod too ;P

hey quick question will voodoo colorfix will ever get added ?
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
I haven't seen any reason to mess with it honestly, I'm quite happy with the screen colors. Maybe if there is a control type app released for it so people can configure it.
[Vibrant Android Development] FRuiTBoOT:
Is there a non OC version?
[Vibrant Android Development] hazard99:
You can use the voltage app to limit the cpu to 1ghz.
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
I'm trying to avoid maintaining another branch without oc.. The kernel self-limits at boot to 1Ghz, so it should act like a non-OC kernel unless you load up the Voltage Control app and enable some OC states.
[Vibrant Android Development] ivanmmj:
What about the voodoo sharpness mod? I'm excited to try out the 1000hz. Did you ever disable the fm module? Did you ever get a rom booting with full preempt like other devices do? I haven't had a chance to mess with it myself. :-(
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
I haven't done any of the voodoo screen stuff... Never seen a reason to. I might look at it. One of the things I would want to see is a userland control app so people can adjust to what they want, like Voodoo Sound does. The screen is just too subjective. Everyone is going to want something different.

Yes, the FM module is disabled, no significant difference. No, full preempt doesn't boot... still not sure what Samsung did there... I'm still using voluntary preempt.

From what I've seen of Samsung's code and their shortcuts, I suspect something in RFS isn't threadsafe so they broke full-preempt. That's just a guess though, as we don't have source for RFS and they will never give it to us as they think it's valuable..
[Vibrant Android Development] thanharts:
Is kernel born to show our galaxy S power ?

And how is battery ??
[Vibrant Android Development] DannyDoan:
First page and the battery question is already asked..
[Vibrant Android Development] Thegreat520:
Dude I can't overclock my phone not one bit my phone freezes up and I have to pull the battery is there a fix for this thank you
[Vibrant Android Development] ivanmmj:
I like how you put it, "they think it's valuable.." lol

/efs still runs RFS so maybe that's just freaking out when we set the kernel to preempt.

As far as the screen goes, I definitively agree, but he did change more than just the color. He added a sharpness fix and several other settings. But I like the idea of it all being useland controlled.
[Vibrant Android Development] ivanmmj:
Not all phones are overclockable. Have you ever been able to overclock your phone?
[Vibrant Android Development] drmosh:
runs great so far at 1.2
[Vibrant Android Development] FRuiTBoOT:
Thanks, That what i did, actually this is the first of the OC kernels th I've bn able to get to1200mhz without the phone locking up. Thanked both of you!!
[Vibrant Android Development] uub11:
i haven't been able to successfully overclock this kernel using the voltage app.....if i use setcpu speed i can get to 1.4 ghz easily but anytime i use the voltage app i get a freeze....any suggestions??

EDIT* sorry i meant the previous kernel that the new update
[Vibrant Android Development] ivanmmj:
I talked with Supercurio and he tells me the OneNAND driver itself is what's causing the issue with preempt. In order for us to be able to use preempt, we have to either mod the nexus s kernel to work on our phones or backport the OneNAND MTD driver. That way, we stop using the FSR layer altogether. (Wouldn't that also cause an increase in file system performance as the FSR layer causes some mayor slowdowns in fsync?
[Vibrant Android Development] hazard99:
I love using your kernels as it allows me to underclock.
[Vibrant Android Development] Thegreat520:
Honestly this is the first time I've tried and I can't even put it at 1.12 without it locking up on me damn just when I thought I had a awesome phone lol jk
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
I honestly love you, my phone flies, and it never crashed ever! I love the sound, and the battery life gets better and better, I just need to learn about undervolting, is there a site where it can teach me about it?

I'm doing good at 1.4 also.

[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
I wonder what is so fundamentally different between i9000 and the US variants of galaxy S software wise. It baffles me that the kernel from one phone would drain battery power on it's similar cousins.

I been hearing good stuff about voodoo sound and really want to try it but unfortunately I need all the battery power I can get. However, I will try this kernel out when I get home. I suppose it's like the saying Curiosity kills the Cat... Thank you ttabbal.
[Vibrant Android Development] Thegreat520:
Ok so I flashed this kernel but I am about to flash another rom do I have to do anything special
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Disable voodoo if your new rom does not com preinstalled with voodoo. Your kernel will get replaced when youflash the new rom. You will have to reflash dtagon. :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
My suggestion would be to at least uninstall either set cpu or voltage app depending on which one you want to use. Or at least open the superuser app and deny root access to the one you are not using. You don't want them both telling the cpu what to do at the same time. My suggestion would be to use voltage app to control cpu. I use both, the voltage app to run clock speed and I denied set cpu root permissions and just use the set cpu widget to monitor temperature. Hope this helps. :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] uub11:
thank you i didn't even think of this i'll try the kernel when i get back home
[Vibrant Android Development] kaizasoshi:
Clocked at 1.4 for the last hr with no problems..hope this doesn't jinx me :)
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
Ohhh... That's interesting... Might have to try that. I think that means we would lose RFS entirely like the NS kernels do, not a big loss as the MTD driver will talk to the OneNAND partitions and we can then use yaffs2 or something on there...
[Vibrant Android Development] Dattack:
So far more stable than the previous.
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
One nice thing about the Voltage Control app is that it doesn't run constantly fooling with the CPU settings. It only changes things when you tell it to. While testing, it might be good to just run Voltage Control though, as SetCPU can't enable the OC states, and they are disabled by default. Just one less thing to have in the loop while you test things. Don't forget to use menu->set for now/set at boot to actually set the clocks and such.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
Excellent!

You are my go-to guy for voodoo sound!!!!

TY
[Vibrant Android Development] ivanmmj:
Exactly. Although we should still be able to use ext4 like the ns does. I'm just worried about the efs partition.
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
/efs is jfs
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Awesome.. apparently iv'e been doing this wrong the whole time, I never actually had my clock set to 1.4, I just though it was, and then I went into the voltage app, and set the stats, and boom, lock up, going to keep testing.
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
hey TTab, has the micro over headphone issue fixed? Early kernels you can't talk using the micro on the headphone.

Been running 3.2 for about an hour, seems pretty good with stability, just monster battery drain as usual with an i9000 port. :( But, it has so much going for it, other w/ bln, voodoo sound, voodoo lagfix, it might be worth running with it until t959 source is dropped. :)

[Vibrant Android Development] mainecrab:
Where is the Voltage Control app? The zip did not install any package? Can you use SetCPU for this?

[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
They're not voodoo sound.
[Vibrant Android Development] hazard99:
I take it all back i guess I am hearing things.
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Figured Id clear up the confusion....Until Samsung releases the complete source (kernel included) for 2.2, we CANT make a Voodoo Sound enabled kernel specifically for the vibrant. Until then we have to use the i9000 base that all OC\UV kernels are using.

Voodoo lagfix is a totally different story, because it can literally be "injected" into a compiled kernel, where Voodoo sound needs mods to the original source code.

Why dont you try the kernel from the OP and not OC. About as stock as you can get for the time being.
[Vibrant Android Development] steelefriese:
Is this the only kernel with voodoo sound? The battery is terrible..
[Vibrant Android Development] hazard99:

although I prefer dragon kernel, I went back to ka7 for battery life, I now use Galaxy Tuner app(market) but will return once source gets released
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
um...wrong? That is Voodoo lag fix, you need to source to incorporate Voodoo sound and color fixes. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
Is Voodoo sound that much of a difference? All the review I read of Galaxy S/Vibrant states that the phone already has great sound quality stock. So what does Voodoo sound improve? Bass? Tremble?
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
I'm not sure what you are listening to on stock, the sound is awful. Along with all the crackling sound when you turn the volume up, it sounds muffled and just plain bad. With this, I can turn the sound up with no issues. Sounds clear and works really well, crisp. :)

question on voodoo sound

Guys,

just flashed this on my rooted vibrant (2.2 stock) and installed voodoo control app as well. what's the next step to get great sounds with voodoo, do I need to further tweak the voodoo control app or just leave it as is?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Had to remove, when using this kernel, when using voice search, it couldn't pick my voice up.
[Vibrant Android Development] cezzarmicu:
Sorry for bumping my post...

On another note, my headset can no longer control powerAMP even with feature activated after I used this kernel. Anyone else having the same issue?
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy25000:
Hey, open voodoo app, click head phone modifier, change from -10 to 2-3 and check the next two options...you'll see the difference :p
[Vibrant Android Development] cezzarmicu:
Thanks... Any input on the headset control though? I now tried to disable then enable voodoo (which takes a long time :D) but I still can't get headset control to work on powerAMP :(
[Vibrant Android Development] cezzarmicu:
Just fyi,

so i took out dragon 3.2 then replaced it with KA6 stock+voodoo and I got the headset control functionality back. must have something to do with the kernel i guess?:confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy25000:
That's weird =/.....I haven't had any issues other then battery drain....but the sound difference is worth it for me :p
[Vibrant Android Development] michaelh99:
First... Thanks for starting a new thread.

Second... I really like the idea of this ROM but the battery drain is insane. I flashed it over Bionix-V at 60% charge and three hours later the phone was flat with very little use (a little email and web, mostly sitting there dark). I checked the controls in VC and it was maxed out at 1GHz and I hadn't changed any of the settings.

At 60% I'd normally be looking at another 8-9 hours of use with B-V.

Any suggestions?
[Vibrant Android Development] uub11:
isn't eugene using the official vibrant source in that kernel??? so if he is we should see an update soon on the dragon kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] adm1jtg:
I believe eugene is using the 959d source which is the canadian fascinate and has battery issues as well. Seems to be about a 5% drain/hour in sleep with his newest according to his posts
[Vibrant Android Development] secretseven:
Ka7 w/voodoo + galaxy tuner (market) app

And yes I will admit, I did go to sleep for 7 hours, but as you can see I did use it quite a bit, I even played some doom, this seems to be my best setup for battery life, ka7 modem with supercurios ka7 w/voodoo kernel

*edit* and I just wanted to add, over clocking will drain your battery more no matter what, thats just a sacrifice you have to make, if you just want voodoo sound? Then try a diff route until he gets a ka7 2.2 source, after source ttabbal is going to leave your mind bottled
[Vibrant Android Development] uub11:

[Vibrant Android Development] michaelh99:
As I stated I was running 1GHz max and hadn't tweaked any of the voltage or speed settings.

What are the settings you're using for both?
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
Guys, I told you in the OP that it eats battery. We know that. *****ing about it isn't going to chage it. If you want better battery you have 2 options. Ask Samsung for real 2.2 Vibrant source, or ask Eugene to share his changes. I am happy to give credit to people I use patches from, my posts should show that. However, in the past, requests for source have gone unanswered from most XDA/Vibrant devs. I'll try asking Eugene, but don't expect anything from it.
[Vibrant Android Development] hazard99:
boggled? I know that joke is from a movie cant remember which.

And also I think the people who are complaining about battery are those who dont know any better.

Otherwise they would know that overclocking "can" lead to a shorter life span in battery and cpu.
[Vibrant Android Development] michaelh99:
I'm not "*****ing" about the battery drain, I'm looking for feedback.

If 20% drain per hour while the phone is dark is normal I would think that's something that should be included in the OP.

Some people appear to be claiming much better battery life and I'm just asking for data so that I can see if I can replicate their results. My baseline right now is 16hrs on average with Bionix-V.

If asking questions is *****ing then f-it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Theonlyblackju:
The best thing to do is turn off everything that auto-updates (do everything manually), turn off haptic feedback (vibrating uses more juice), turn screen brightness all the way down and don't use auto-brightness, unless you're actively using them turn off bt, wifi and gps, use standard clock speeds as OC will always use more juice, use titanium backup pro and systempanel to analyze/freeze rogue apps, and TURN OFF ALL DATA IF YOU'RE NOT USING IT!

Honestly, managing your data state seems to be the big kicker for batt life on any rom/kernel I use. The standby is insane if left untouched. I personally just enable/disable data via the power menu when I see fit. It takes seconds and saves a ton of battery and I'm still able to make calls and text.

I do these things on every rom/kernel I try on the latest Nero I avg 30+ hours. On the old dragon 2.8 kernel (which I'm still rocking) I saw 20+ hours with my setup.

Oh, the modem might deal with batt. usage as well since some posters do notice a difference. I never test it so I can't say but it's worth looking into.

And sorry ttabbal about the wall of text, just figured people would never shutup about battery life unless something was posted.

Anyhow, love your work and much thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] sualpine:
This kernel, at 1Ghz - 50 mV, would that provide better battery life than the stock Vibrant kernel? I only ask because of i9000 source.
