Hi, I just recently rooted my phone and am seeing a lot of talk on Voodoo applications that enhance many different features to the SGS4g. I'm pretty new to the android world and I need some help getting it to work.
I downloaded Voodoo Control from the Marketplace, but I don't know how to get it to work with the kernels and such. I did see multiple threads on this but it was pretty confusing, anyone have any clear cut instructions on how to get the lagfix/sound/color/display to be improved using Voodoo?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You need the pro app on the sgs4g, since it only has stock kernel.
Hello I just picked up the samsung replinish and need to know if I can add flash support somehow. Do I need to change my kernel? Or add a custom rom? I had the evo and got this for the keyboard but really miss the flash support... thanks in advance

Any luck?
Did you have any luck getting flash support? I'm considering this phone for my son, and flash would be good. Maybe an alternate browser would work. How about Dolphin? Also, if you want to try to get flash running, you could try sideloading it. Android Central, which sings the XDA praises all the time, has an app for sideloading called the wonder machine. I haven't used it, but it might be useful for you. Good luck.

I can't imagine that flash would work on this phone, only because the screen resolution and processor speed are both so low. As an employee, I cannot tell you to try "rooting" the phone because that would be in violation of Sprint T&C's, but that may be the only way to attempt what you are looking to do. It is not meant to be a high end handset, but more of an entry level device for 1st time Android or smartphone users. Now having said that, for the non-Uber-user, the Replenish is a solid phone that provides a mid-range smartphone experience for the feature phone convert, or for antiquated smartphone upgraders. I would say it is NOT the way to go if you are "upgrading" from an Evo or Epic. It does offer some significant savings, not only in capital investment, but also in the MRC.
Quite honestly though, I have not tried to get flash to work, nor do I expect it to.

I was able to download Adobe Flash 10.1 (found the apk on xda somewhere) but it causes my browser to crash--also, the whole reason I got it was in hopes that THAT was why my modded Netflix app still wasn't working (got the no-device-checker mod from xda as well).
For the record, I've rooted my Replenish--but haven't seen much performance boost at all. I got an overclocker but all I could really do was switch the profile from the standard one to "performance"--so it does seem to load up a little faster.
Also, Wireless tether is neat....but thats about it!

thats because your using a stock kernel if their is a custom kernel that allows overclocking then you would see a difference
Replenish is NOT a multimedia phone. It has multimedia capabilities, but just the physical specs themselves (600mHz processor, 2MP camera, LO-res screen) screams "don't use me for video unless you're witnessing a phelony, and then you may have trouble getting it to stick!".
The reason that apps like Netflix, Angry Birds, and other software are not available or won't run on the Replenish is because those programs require a minimum hardware performance level.
Getting back to Flash, I think it won't work for this reason. Even if you can overclock it with a cooked ROM, your resolution will still stink, and you may even burn out the screen and/or hardware by trying to run full video (conjecture, not really knowing...).
If you get it to work and it's stable, obviously I'd like to know how because I don't think the manufacturers or Sprint meant to "reserve" any computing or performance power in order to enable higher end processes and applications like Flash video or bird catapults...

Angry birds (the original at least) runs just fine on the replenish. Tested it myself.
A custom rom with some of the crap removed would be nice.

Here is a WORKING DEODEXED PhoenixRom that I just made about an hour ago. I got to playing around with FireHak's build. I didn't change NOTHING, but deodex. I noticed the boot animations didn't work so I added bootanimation.zip functionality and it still doesn't work. At least on my wife's phone who I tested this on. I downloaded Anim Mod from the market to change the windows animations and transitions. It also modifies the system framework, so I tested it on her Replenish and EVERYTHING is running good so far. Now we have a deodexed ROM, let the customization begin.
I am not in anyway trying to take Firehak's glory. That is why I left everything the same.
Things we need to work on:
Custom Bootanimations
Disable the annoying System Update message
Fix recovery to fit our screens. (I noticed the Clockwork Recovery is oversized)
Customization
Flash like you would normally a ROM. Use Firehak's instructions here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-replenish/148702-acs-rom-phoenix-rom-0-2-a.html
But instead, use the Pheonix 0.3 zip include below.
I made it to where it WON'T wipe data, but I noticed it still does. PLEASE BACKUP FIRST! After I flashed this ROM I did an Avanced Restore through Clockwork and only restored DATA. Everything seems fine. Wipe Dalvik and Cache, just in case.
AS WITH ALL OTHER ROMS, FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Please let me know if anyone has issues.
Now what we all been waiting for, here is the link to download:

Hope you all enjoy!
PS. Thanks Firehak for all your hard work
EDIT: Because bootanimations didn't work on my wife's phone, it will look like the phone shut off. Just let it sit. It will boot up.
Hi. I am asking these questions for my dad. First, he seems to be having the "Sleep of Death" issue. He is running rooted stock EE19 Leak. Any suggestions to fix that? There is no custom kernel/overclock/set cpu profiles set.
Also, if I were to flash CM7 to his phone, is there a way to get the Samsung soft keyboard on it? he likes that one a TON more than the Stock android one.
As for the SOD issue. If its straight stockd then really the only thing you can do is either reflash it back to EE19 or try a custom kernel.
As for the keyboard. I don't think that would work but you could find one on the market that is similiar. The stock gingerbreak keyboard is pretty nice and there's one on the market for a dollar that allows you to change the skin and key size and all that good stuff. I've used it for a while and love it. Hope that helps. Also if you flash CM7. That may very well fix the SOD issues as I've been running it for a decent while now and haven't had that happen yet.
Tap-a-Talked from my CM7'd Mesmerize
I've been searching the forums to see if I can find any info on this, but so far I haven't seen anything. I apologize if this has already been asked. I really love the CM7 Rom on the Infuse, and I really want to stick with it, but I've noticed that it won't detect the Infuse desktop dock, therefore it won't launch any sort of dock app I have installed. It works just fine in the Infuse car dock. I was wondering if anyone has found a way to include the Infuse dock detection in the CM7 Kernel, or even modify the desktop dock so that it will work with whatever method of dock detection CM7 uses. I can't even use a custom kernel with a stock AT&T Rom, because that won't detect the dock either. Is there something wrong with my phone, or am I just missing something?
you arent alone, I have the same issue
I rooted my galaxy s2 a couple months ago. It is now running the blazer ics 4.0 rom. It all works great except i always get an error in the android market saying my device is not compatible. Ive had all the apps before that im trying to download. I also rooted my friends epic touch the same way and his never says this message. I dont know if i changed a setting in the rom somehow or what but i need some help with this error.
Sounds like a dpi issue if not @ 240 then the market plays up do a search of the ROM thread as I'm sure there will be others with the issue.
