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.

but from what the OP describes, it sounds like he did an i9000 NONreoriented kernel....
ya, i downloaded the 5.4 off voodoo.org
i will do a bit more research

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.

I love you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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?
Swyped using USCC Mesmerize
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..
Swyped using USCC Mesmerize
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.

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.

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.
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

Just upgraded from Captivate to Infuse... so far, Infuse is a solid phone. Looking for a Voodoo kernel which is basically stock, but has the following modifications:
- CWM Recovery (Voodoo Red).
- Voodoo lagfix (it will convert /system, /data, and /cache partition from RFS to ext4 during first boot)
I'm rooted with SuperOneClick and have a few root apps working fine (TiBU, RootExplorer, SQLite Editor, SGS kernel flasher, etc). Also, I replaced the stock recovery with the modified 3e recovery. Here are my specs:
Firmware: 2.2.1
Baseband: I997UCKE3
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Build: FROYO.UCKE3
Not ready to flash new ROM yet, but would like to flash a voodoo kernel (similar to what I did with my Captivate... wanted to remove lag, so flashed Supercurio's "voodoo+stock-Froyo-I897-UCKB1-unsigned-update.zip" on the Captivate).
So, anyone know of a voodoo lag-fix kernel which plays nice with an INFUSE running Froyo 2.2.1 UCKE3?
Thanks.
Plenty of options if you spend just a little time reading the dev forum.

I have... plenty of modified ROMs... and kernels with various bells and whistles. Was looking for a kernel compatible with INFUSE 2.2.1 UCKE3 that is basically stock.. but modified to add RED CWM and ext4 partitioning. Don't want to brick phone flashing an incompatible Kernel to the stock ROM.

It's the Defuse kernel for Froyo.

Thanks for the link and appreciate your input. Does the Defuse kernel 1.5 have the BLN issue that 1.4 had (at least what I read in a few threads)? Can BLN be turned off completely?
No, and Yes respectively.
There is also the community kernel.

As I said - plenty of options. The Gingerbread kernels are reasonably clearly labeled as such.
Thanks for all the recommendations/ links. I opted to go with the CWM Community kernel... flashed it with SGS Kernel Flasher. It couldn't have gone any smoother! Took 7 minutes for voodoo to do it's thing... rebooted, and all is right in the world again. Used "CPU Spy" to confirm kernel flashed (RED CWM w/ Voodoo was also a big clue all was good). No more RFS... Thanks again for the tips.

OK... need expert help: I need to return to stock. I backed up my stock kernel using SGS Kernel Flasher right before I flashed the v8 Community Kernel. So my question: Can I simply disable voodoo lagfix, then reflash the stock kernel (using SGS Kernel Flasher) over the v8 Community Kernel? Or will I create a problem flashing the stock kernel over the v8 Community Kernel? Will this remove the RED CWM Recovery? Thx.
EDIT: Closing... posted question as a new topic
I'm on froyo as I can install the Red cwm with SGS Kernel Flasher..help me please

I just got the Captivate yesterday and I'm in love with it. I've been modding my Backflip for a while and I'm fairly certain I know what I'm doing. I've been trying different ROMs and I've currently settled on a rooted stock 2.2 ROM.
I want to change my kernel though, so I put my phone in download mode and flashed the Galaxian kernel via Odin, it finished and then my phone started boot looping. So I one clicked it and tried again with SGS flasher, boot loop. One click restored, tried with CWM, boot loop.
I've also tried Talon, Speedmod, Setiron and a stock kernel with all 3 methods. Nothing will flash without boot looping.
That kernel is designed for reoriented i-9000 roms

It needs to be a true captivate 2.2 kernel a lot are i9000's you just need to read the op for whichever kernel you are looking at thoroughly. 90% of the time the dev states if its an i9000 kernel.
The speed mod kernel here, forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893880 SHOULD work just make sure to wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery after install and it should boot.

Yeah. You were trying to install a gingerbread kernel on a froyo ROM. That won't work.
Thanks guys! I think I downloaded the wrong version of SpeedMod the first time, it worked this time. Firstly I didn't know that the difference between i-9000 and i897 meant that much. Secondly, I'm not really sure how to read the kernel topics, they're confusing to say the least :S.
I'll learn sooner or later but thanks for your help everyone.

Yeah some are very confusing the biggest help Is to learn the difference in firmware revision codes. Most captivate roms/kernels begin with k. like kh3, kf1 that sort of thing and from what I remember j is for I9000 eg jv1 etc...

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

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.
