[KERNEL] EA11 Voodoo kernel - Samsung Mesmerize

Once again, jt1134 has delivered the goods. This is based on the EA11 leak, packaged with voodoo. For those of you that have been asking for it, here it is.
This kernel only includes the Voodoo ext4 lagfix, as without source code, Voodoo sound and color fixes are not possible. Full credit to Supercurio for the Voodoo lagfix code, as well as the scripts that jt1134 used to package it all into this kernel.
The kernel is also modified to support external bootanimations, ie: /system/media/bootanimation.zip
This package will also flash a modified recovery, which can be used with both Voodoo and non-Voodoo installations.
Make a backup. I am not responsible for what you do to your phone. Flash in recovery.
EA11 Voodoo kernel

I love you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no homo
well quadrant got ~1400ish with this...so happy you guys got the initial release out...thanks again

Just flashed and enabled lagfix, quadrant score 1435 stock froyo leak. Thanks a lot!
Quick question seeing as this is built off the kernel that was leaked with the froyo this should work when we get our real official upgrade release right?

Ok, dumb question here. How do I flash this without ClockworkMod Recovery installed? I don't have an option to do it from stock recovery.

Um you might need to get clockwork mod to install this.. You can probably it with odin but I dunno..

Yeah, just read that in the Leaked Froyo thread. Red CWM installed.

Ok so I have to flash update.zip from stock recovery every time I need to get to red recovery.did that then flashed voodoo from red and no noticeable difference. Ntm tried to install boot animations just to see if voodoo went through and nothing happened. Im obviously missing something, any ideas?

Nice! Just flashed, rebooted into recovery via terminal (right to red CwM, thank you!) and enabled lagfix. One more reboot...sweet voodoo voice confirming it was working...
Nice quadrant and linpack scores. Very happy. Thanks devs!

Gotta enable lagfix after you flash the zip.

Ok so I tried to reboot to red recovery to enable lag fix. got hung up at the samsung screen. So I used odin to reflash froyo, followed by red recovery and reflashed voodoo , enabled lag fix and all is good once again.
You guys are the sizzle.

++ new issue.
phone does not ring for incoming sms.
not really sure whats going on. Anyone else experiencing this?
Dont know if it matters or not but i use handcent not the
stock sms app

dont feel bad...mine only uses the default text ringtone no matter what
guessing its a froyo bug
is this kernel undervolted?

atleast your working with a ringtone. i get no notifications whatsoever. no ring , vibe , or message counter in the notification bar. odd. ive checked handcent and the orig sms apps, everything is enabled.

YAY JT! Thanks for posting Phidelt!

1500 Quadrant. Kind of strange this scores lower than 2.1 Voodoo though.

I got 1692 last quadrant run, overclocked 2.1 with voodoo.

No, this is not undervolted and does not allow overclocking. To do either of these we will need the source code for the kernel which android has not released yet. once that is released, new kernels can be built with those and other mods built in.

Screen rotate problems after 3emod & voodoo?

Well after much hassle I finally got the 3erecovery mod installed and then rebooted to install voodoo 5 stable or whatever.....so 2 QUestions.
1. Its i9000 kernal correct? At least thats what my boot screen said
2. Screen only is in horizontal position...won't rotate to vertical now....is this normal? I hope not, its annoying. Please help. Also is there alagfix devised from captivate not i9000? Or am I just not comprehending something?

Exactly which kernel did you install? There are Captivate kernels injected with with a Voodoo lagfix initramfs and there are reoriented i9000 kernels with Voodoo lagfix.

[Q] 898 Quadrant Score

Just updated to 2.2 and my quadrant score is 898. Ive seen folks in the 1200 - 1400 range which is almost double. It stated to use the .pit file if thats the case. My question is do i need to reload both the .tar file and the .pit or just .pit via odin

As stated here, 900~ is normal for a non voodoo set up, enable lagfix with a voodoo kernel and expect 1200-1500 quadrant. With the AOSP rom/kernel, we're going to expect 2000+ ratings (right now the showcase shows that with their release) our build is still in the works.

E11. Is E16 worth my time in upgrading again? If it is, whats different?
2.1 to 2.2 is a very welcomed upgrade. I am extremely please with the speed and the small changes they have made in functionality.

EA11 was a previous "test build" of 2.2, test build only because it hasn't been released officially. EB16 is what we assume to be as close to the update that will be released from US cellular/Samsung. EB16 should be what you're running if you're running 2.2 at all.
"Voodoo" is referring to our "modded" kernel. Voodoo has many fixes/tweaks, one of which is called lagfix which when enabled changes the storage system to ext4 which in turn speeds up the system, this is the only one currently active in the EA11 voodoo kernel (which is compatible with both EA11 and EB16). Look for the post in the development forum, it's flashed in CWM. Once you have it flashed, you enable the lagfix through CWM and after booting you would see scores of 1400~ in quadrant.
i got a 1758 score with froyo eb16 pnp and vanilla froyo u guys should try it its pretty cool just some minor bugs though like no task manager, no youtube vids and thats about it i think

Greatly appreciate the info. Will be upgrading shortly.
if you meant AOSP, we haven't got a release for the mes yet but I heard it scores up to 2000, I'm sure we will have something in time

I wanna run the OTB kernel from nemesis2all and it has cwm3 in the kernel is that going to conflict with anything?
Sent from my SCH-I500
The new OTB, shoudl be version 1.1b doesn't include a recovery in it, Now I did flash the one that had CWM3 in it from CWM2.5 and I didn't have any issues with it.
Now thats not to say you won't, so.
I'm running the new one without the recovery with it and its working just fine.
Alright the thing I wanted was bln, voodoo color and sound.

you need to download the respective apps from market just search for "voltage control" and "bln"... I've never used bln cuz I use noled but voltage control is really cool. Just don't choose to save as boot settings unless you are 1000% sure it's stable. The fascinate thread has a few posts with voltages to look at. My phone flakes out at anything over 1200mhz and will not even run 14-1600mhz without having to pull battery.

Mine will run 1300 no problem. Over that is gets iffy.
Mine will do 1300 but freezes when I go to reboot. Sticking with 1200

Just FYI - CWM3 would not be capable of flashing any of our flash packages as is, there is a script file located within META-INF in every flashable.zip that tells recovery how to apply the update files, since CWM3 uses edify vs. ammend scripting, our current one's are not compatible.
Phidelt has started converting the scripts (there would be 3, one for ROM flashing, Kernel flashing and Theme flashing.) However until CWM3 is used more (most people are still using the old scripts) we want to steer clear of CWM3. If you wanted that kernel (before the update which removed CWM3) you can use the SGS kernel flasher available from the market, to flash just the kernel from the .zip (it automatically picks it out)
If you do have CWM3, and want to flash something, you'll need to hop in IRC and ask around for the converted scripts - last I heard we had one complete (for ROM's) but I'm sure it wouldn't take long to get the other two converted if need be. Otherwise you'll need to revert back to the old CWM recovery.

i9020a overclocking

Has anyone been successfull? i have tried every OC kernel and as soon as i overclock it just reboots my phone to a freeze (only way out is to either pull the battery or adb reboot). That being said the UV kernel runs fine.
Not sure if it has to do with the I9020A series.
But overall, each NS phone can tolerate its own OC levels. Some phones can tolerate only up to 1.2 GHz, some may be able to achieve 1.4GHz (or beyond). And for some of the unfortunate, some aren't able to OC at all.
Thus this post. I hope my phone is'nt the issue. it would be nice to push a little bit more out of it if i needed it down the line.
I over clocked mine to 1.4 and it was fine, I leave it at 1.0 tho, this friggin thing is quick enough for now.
hmm how do you check your radio. I'm gonna try that as a last resort. And i can set mine as 1.4 but as soon as i run a resource heavy task (n64) my phone locks up and reboot freezes.

Not sure why a radio would affect your ability to OC but...
Menu -> Settings -> About Phone -> Baseband Version
the last 3 are what you want to look at "JK8/KB1/KB3"
List all the kernels you've tried. The best in my opinion is Netarchy's 1.3.0.3-CFS kernel using SetCPU
Try intervals of 1.2 GHz too. My phone can only go up to 1.2 GHz
Yeah actually i had tried all of the bfs kernels. I just succeeded in getting Netarchy's 1.3.0.3-CFS kernel. And i can run up to 1.4 . Maybe the brain fk scheduler does not play nice with 9020a's

i flashed the BFS first, and lost my boot animation. Then i switched to the CFS, and the boot animation still didnt appear.
Any ideas as to how i can get it back?
Also, is there anyway to recover the stock kernel? I'd like to have it handy to be able to go back to it.

Wipe dalvik and cache. Flash a rom that flashes stock. Like cm7 but netarchys is so much better than stock
You can also get ogdobbers which is stock + ext4 + voodoo.

Hey everyone,
This is an off topic question but does anyone know what happened to the 1.6 OC support for Netarchy? I loved to see the absurdly high quadrant scores and instantaneous screen transitions.

you're better off asking that in the netarchy kernel thread in dev forums.
netarchy could answer that... not a lot of phones can tolerate 1.6 GHz Oc

AOKP M5 and VOODOO

I can't seem to get voodoo sound to run on stock AOKP M5 with stock kernel.
I bought the voodoo sound plus, but when i load the driver i get a ''voodoo sound driver loading error''.
I'm rooted and it has the correct permissions etc.
Anyone have any success with this?
Perhaps the stock kernel doesn't have voodoo settings? Not really sure. The first thing I do is flash a kernel and voodoo everything is working fine for me.

Yes but i thought the whole point of the paid version of voodoo is that it loads the necessary drivers into the kernel :S
Doesn't AOKP on our phones have Pete's kernel as stock? I thought one of our members had the module loaded for Voodoo with Petes kernel.

No idea about the kernel, but definitely not working :/
Bumping this as i'm desperate.
AFAIK, voodoo module only loads on stock ICS kernel, not pete's. But check his thread in development, I remember there was a debate about it some time ago, don't know what was the conclusion.
Although if you're a fan of a stockish kernel, load up SimpleKernel from terryhau, it's built from stock ICS sources and has Voodoo & BLN added.
