Imoseyon kernel link?

I noticed this in new gummy. What are the advantages over imnuts kernel?
Link?

I love his kernel, only part I don't care for is the preinstalled overclock. Voodoo Color is nice though :]
edit: Heres the download http://cl.ly/9BnL/imoseyon_leanKernel_voodoo_0.13.6.zip

Do I install this through Odin or CWM?

CWM. Just "install zip from SD card"
Just FYI, this is already in Gummy2.0, so if you're on that ROM then you are on this kernel.

Overclock is not enabled by default. The kernel allows you to oc up to 1.4ghz with voltage control or a similar app. If you don't like it don't use it.

The way the changelog is phrased it seems like it's overclocked by default, not only that but when I started up Voltage Control for the first time the advanced section was up to 1400, general was 1000mhz though. Overclocking confuses me.

Advanced is for voltages, general is clocks.

Yeah apparently he's got voodoo color on it that's why the colors look different than IMNUTS' kernel. In fact, here's a quote from the man himself.
imnuts said:
It will work, though it wasn't a simple edit as the files that are changed didn't have all the same methods the files that voodoo color has and makes changes to. Imoseyon seems to have gotten at least some of the voodoo color changes built into the kernel though.

This is so awesome! Finally the colors look correct instead of way oversaturated !!!
Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk

Agreed! Also, according to what imnuts' said(unless I'm misinterpreting) that's not even the full Voodoo Color, so we can look foward to an even better version in the future :] Voodoo Color was made for Super Amoled and not SAmoled+ so that's why he can't just copy it over.

Did anyone take pictures of their Charge before/after voodoo color?

I read over at the Gummy 2.0 thread something about IMoseyOn's kernel not having support for HDMI output. I don't have a cable, I just ordered it, but can anyone confirm.

If it's true you can expect it to be fixed by the time your cable arrives.

I've had no issues with the HDMI out on this kernel. Used it to watch Netflix this morning on the big screen and it worked perfectly. I'm not using gummy, i'm on humblecomb. Perhaps it's a gc issue and not the kernel.

It's definitely the kernel. It works with imnuts' pbj kernels.

FYI about Voodoo Color: the color-correction only kicks in at 100% brightness, so if you're like most people and leave auto-brightness on, don't expect colors to look better because the calibration won't be in effect.
Super AMOLED+ also has much less of an inherent blue tint than Super AMOLED did, so I'm not even sure the difference is very noticeable at full brightness.
What would make a definite difference are the text sharpening enhancements (the Charge still applies an overly aggressive sharpness filter, much like the Galaxy S), but since text is far more accurately sharp on the + to begin with due to the loss of Pentile I can't really tell if that's active in this kernel.
So, bottom line: Voodoo Color was made for the screen on the original Galaxy S, and ours is a good deal different (and improved)... so don't expect it to make a huge difference like it did on the Fascinate. If/when supercurio makes a new Voodoo Color implementation specifically for the Galaxy SII, then we may see more of an improvement (but again, never as much as with the original Galaxy S because our screens are just better to begin with).

It's a huge difference. Colors went from oversaturated to balanced. White looks white instead of blue.

So just curious, I flashed this kernel and voltage control still says it's incompatible with my kernel. Also, when using any cpu app, it still shows my max as 1000mhz.
For the record I didn't get a wipe when I flashed it using cwm.

General Questions about Screen and Battery

Hi There!
I got my wife one of these to replace her Motorola Defy.. She has a few questions I couldn't really answer...
1) She seems to be having problems with signal and therefore internet connectivity. All our other 6 devices wireless fine. It's running 4.04 Android Custom ROM. I read recently 4.04 users were reporting issues with the signal strength and wondering if I should change back to 4.03?
2) She says whites are not really white and when I compare to the Defy it would appear she is right.
3) She says the text doesn't look as sharp or crisp and again I am inclined to agree. I am not sure if this is a Pixel Density issue or a setting we can change.
4) Battery life is shocking. I'd say she is lucky to get 8 hours if she talks on the phone for perhaps 45 minutes a day. I am interested to know what a reasonable baseline expectation is.. Right now she is barely touching it.
Thanks for any assistance.

Hi,
I have been using ICS 4.0.4 as soon as it officially came out and I haven't had any issues with connection (let alone hear of any issues for that matter.)
Whites are definitely not as white as they are supposed to and thankfully there is a software modification called: Voodoo Control while allows you to adjust the gamma settings to change the saturation and tone of colours.
Regarding the sharpness, changing the gamma settings may help in this department unless you'd like to change the pixel density via rooting/flashing custom ROMs.
To be honest, when I first owned this device I would disgusted from the battery life I was achieving. 8-10 hours per day. However, I am able to last about 20-30 now after a few modifications. In 4.0 you can view which apps are consuming the most battery:
System settings > Battery
Battery saving tips:
- Turn down the brightness 10-25% (Also turn off auto brightness if you can live with changing the brightness manually)
- Turn off data when not in use (switch to 2G if possible)
- Turn off auto-sync (or sync less frequently)
- Turn off GPS when not in use
- Turn off the screen manually before putting it in your pocket
- Turn off autorotation
Screen brightness is the biggest culprit so I'd turn that down to a comfortable level.
Basically, the more features you turn off that makes your smart phone "smart" the longer the battery will last.

BuglessBeast won't fix any of those screen issues you mentioned. Be sure to install a kernel which has voodoo support.

Can you recommend one?

Matr1x kernel has been around for a long time and is the most feature packed kernel. It also has been tested to save the most battery life compared to other kernels through built-in undervolt.

Is Matrix Kernel voodoo compatible

Yes, it's compatible. AirKernel is another option. There are a few on the DEV section you might want to check. ROMs, I would say: Bugless Beast, MIUIXperience, CyberGR, Brainmaster ROMs, AOSP+ and AOKPBlue 1.1

Where can I get this Voodoo Control? I only see a Sound Control App?

I answered your question in another thread. The color and sound controls are in the same application. If the kernel doesn't support it, it won't show up in the options. The name of the app was changed a while back.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to have to game run better. I'm using the official JB OTA and Air kernel r1. Any help would really be appreciated.

don't use air, its not very game friendly, also try over clocking. clear ram before starting the game, especially background services, like facebook and things. force stop the app if necessary.

Go Home -> Settings - Manage Apps -> Running, then note down each app that is running.
Then go into the "All" tab, find those apps, and click on Force Close.
Then start Dead Trigger, it ran super smooth on my stock JB after I did the above.

I'm using matrix and FCing apps and it seems to be running better. Before it kept lagging at random moments.
