Hi all
I am really a newbie to this Android world, I recently bought a Google Nexus S (I9020T), and I have been looking for some ways to maximise its ability, and I came across something called Voodoo Kernel.
What is it exactly? What is the benefit of using it on my phone please?
Thanks
It's an optional feature of a kernel which provides a much better driver and config for the sound equipment in the nexuses.
Voodoo colours allows you to change the white balance of amoled displays (all nexus s besides i9023).

Thank you very much for your quick reply.
So voodoo kernel is basically a kernel contain Voodoo colours? That's all?
(btw, how is kernel different to a ROM?)
So in order to get this feature, do I have flash a completely new ROM please? or I can just download it and install on my phone?
Thanks

A ROM is the Operating System.
A kernel is the interface between the ROM and the hardware of the phone.
You can install a ROM with its own kernel,and after this,flash a new kernel,leaving the rom intact.

No, it's not just colours. As Harbb said, it contains a better audio driver too...you will feel the difference if you often listen to music on your nexus.
Don't think that you will need another ROM. Just flash a kernel that supports Voodoo and get the Voodoo Control App from the market. Given this app, you can change different voodoo settings.
I think I may get it now.
ROM is the operating system, like windows 7
Kernel is similar to the drivers in windows.
so all I need is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876132 ??
and installing/flashing a kernel will not wipe out my data, is it correct please?

Almost . Kernel is like the engine of your ROM. Flashing a new kernel will not wipe your data. Just boot into recovery then wipe cache and wipe dalvik-cache. After that, choose zip file of the kernel, install and reboot.
The link you posted is not the only kernel which supports voodoo. A lot of kernels have this feature like Matrix, ICUP, Glados,....
A ROM is the full OS with both kernel and apps, like a installed copy of Windows 7. The kernel is the part of the OS that manages many things from talking to the hardware, managing tasks/apps executing concurrently, managing memory, etc. I don't know if the kernel in Windows 7 can be easily replaced, but it's very simple for Linux based OS such as Android.
If you want Voodoo, there are two ways to get it. You can root your phone, then download Voodoo Control Plus (I think it's still on special price right now), it will load the Voodoo Sound driver for you. You don't need to flash a custom kernel. But this will only give you Voodoo Sound, not Voodoo Colour. For Voodoo Colour, you must flash a kernel with Voodoo built-in. Depending the ROM you are using, you must pick a kernel suitable for your ROM. Ie. ICS ROM must use a kernel built for ICS, the same goes for GB.

Thank you for your reply.
I have looked around in this forum, there are a lot of kernels I can see.
As I know very little, can you recommend me one that is good for Android 2.3.6 in terms of the performance and battery life?
(I know it may sound a bit too much, but I just want to have a guide.)

Seems, as if Si_NZ is far more expert than me. I didn't know that Voodoo Sound works without a proper kernel .
Regarding a good kernel for GB, I like the Matrix kernel. It's a good combination of performance, battery life and stability. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100448&highlight=matrix, try the cfs version) But take into account that this is just a personal opinion and that there are a lot of good kernels out there. Have to go to sleep now...

does it matter whether my Android is 2.3.6 or 2.3.5 please?
By the way, why would you choose Matrix please? GLaDOS seems quite good as well (lots of features), also Netarchy seems good as well.
(Just wanna gather information and learn from other experts!!)

Yeah, that's the right one. And no, I don't think that it makes a difference if you have 2.3.5 or 2.3.6.
Of course, Glados and Netarchy are decent kernels too. I chose matrix because it gave me a really good battery life (lost only 3 percent during a whole night) and it's overclockable to 1,46Ghz and I think it has all the mods from glados builtin too. but just try the others too...
Thank you so much, I will find a time to flash a kernel today, may report back my experience.

I'm not sure if it works with ROM Manager, cause I've never used this. I've always used Clockwork RecoveryMod to flash ROMs and kernels.
Are you rooted and have ClockworkRecovery installed? If not, go to the Nexus S General Forum and there you will find Step-to-Step Guides how to do this.
If you are already rooted, boot into recovery and you'll find a backup option in the menu. When it's finished, just follow the steps I described a few posts earlier (wipe cache, wipe dalvik_cache, install kernel).
Thank you again!!
I just love this forum, people are so willing to share and teach!!

Battery is dead after 4 hours of gaming/browsing or standby?? Use Performance Control to set up the kernel right Android 4+ uses virtual ram taht may slow down the performance. Set swappiness in vm settings to 30. Keep in mind that zRam should be not more than 25% of the physical ram. Set sdcard read value to 512kb or 2048kb. Try different combinations of scheduler/governour. Don't overclock the cpu/gpu if the device already becomes hot.
In many cases the presetted kernel config is just kinda crappy and you can gain a lot by matching it to your needs

Hello community,
I am a rookie in the subject of kernels/roms and I would love to have some precious help from any1 that knows even the smallest of information. I recently installed CM kernel and CM nightly 0422. The thing is, I read in many forums (in here as well) that there is a kernel that can boost battery life to its max, Franco Kernel. But I also read that it is somehow incompatible with CM 10+ and causes bootloop if you install it with CM already in phone. What I can't understand is why can't I just simply replace CM kernel (like stock kernel was replaced by CM kernel) by Franco Kernel? What is the fact that I am missing?
ALL (and I mean ALL) help will be highly appreaciated, thanks for your time

first off.. there is no magic pill to give your phone for battery life. battery life mostly depends on your personal usage, your personal setup, your apps used, and most importantly the quality of your phone/data connection. everything else is minor for battery life, including kernels.
cm uses CAF as its base now, they went away from aosp(like most kernels here). so everything that is aosp based is not compatible with cm anymore. franco kernel is aosp based(most kernels are). there are a few kernels that are CAF based built just for cm and cm based roms.

Thanks for your time and your answer
First of all, I know for myself that there is no magic pill about battery life, I just read in too many threads that FK added a good portion of battery life (with same use of phone like when it had CM) ! Moreover it allows you to overclock (my) Nexus5 beyond 2.2GHz, something that CM doesn't allow you too (I know that overclocking kills battery, I just want to test something). What I don't understand is how can FK mess up with CM when both are different kernels and by installing FK over CM means that FK replaces CM. There is no CM in the end, only FK. Or not...? What have I understood wrong?
Thanks again

yes, franco would replace cm kernel if all worked right. but what you are doing is replacing cm kernel with franco kernel, but cm rom stays on your phone. franco kernel is incompatible with cm rom. since franco is aosp and cm is caf, your phone would never boot up all the way.

So, if I am getting your point right, since one is aosp and the other is caf THAT is the reason why CM doesn't uninstall and will exist together with franco? Is there a way to permanently delete CM in order to install franco? Maybe to go back to stock kernel then install FK?

its not about the kernel, its about the rom. they are different things. when you flash a kernel(any), it replaces the kernel thats on your phone(kernels come with roms, cm kernel with cm rom). cm rom includes cm kernel, both are built from caf source. franco kernel is aosp, it is not compatible with cm rom. it has nothing to do with cm kernel, it replaces cm kernel when flashed. but you will never boot up your phone because it isnt compatible with cm rom.

no, they arent compatible at all. you can not use franco kernel with any cm based roms. you can change roms and use franco kernel with it, any aosp rom or even the stock rom. but cm isnt compatible at all with franko kernel.

If your looking for a good CAF kernel to run with a PAC or CM based ROM. I'd recommend the ElementalX CAF kernel. It's very stable, rich features, great performance and great battery life. Make sure to read the OP for directions and if you decide to try it out download the ElementalX R38 version with the aromma installer (not the express version) As with running any new kernel run it for a few days minimum to allow for it by on settle in.
There is another option for you to explore too - http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/cm11-users-heres-how-aospnon-caf-t2626961
This allows you to run a script that will basically De-CAF your rom and allow you to run a AOSP kernel on CM11ROMs.. Be sure to read the OP. It works with many CM11 and CM based ROMs, but not on all the newest versions. Definitely worth checking out.

NOTE: I highly recommend turning off THERMAL CORE CONTROL! Use THERMAL TEMPERATURE THROTTLE instead. Thermal core control has been known to cause random reboots on this kernel before when gaming or during heavy use. You can use Kernel Adiutor to adjust these settings.

Thanks for the thought, but I do not accept donations. I just tinker for fun, and have my own rewards. Besides, guys like @Mickey387 did all the heavy lifting, I just try to put the device trees and vendor blobs to good use, with a few edits here and there. Glad to know that my work is appreciated, though.
The slim 7 aklu kernel appears to be slightly unstable at this time. Please use with caution.
EDIT: Updated the kernel and fixed a few bugs that I missed in the first build. SHOULD be better now. Please turn off thermal core control for best performance!
Also, if you flashed superSU in Slim to root it, you need to flash the kernel, then immidiately flash superSU, then reboot.

On my MM kernels I did implement UV, but the way I did it in MM fails to pass in the N kernel. Not because it doesn't work, but rather that new build standards don't allow it. With the recent birth of my son, I have not had time yet to go back to it and figure out what was wrong yet. Are you familiar with kernel work? You could look at my github and my kernel source, perhaps you could show me where I went wrong?
If I can get passed that, I can implement the UV again. I also have the same problem for GPU voltage control, which I used to put on my MM kernels as well.
Perhaps when life slows down a bit, I can look back into it.

Oh I see, i honestly never looked at the structure of Nougat kernels. Any time I want to implement a change somebody does it better and beats me to the punch.. I will look at it just in case I see something..
On another note, these things however fun (development) not being trully important, may your family be blessed by the big guy.
Thanks! I'm always open to ideas on kernel improvement.

sim card not detected
Im on RR (7.1.2 micky387 build) but when i flashed the kernel, sim card isnt detected...anybody got the same issue? Any fix for that?

You could try the data fix zips in the 915t T-Mobile thread.

Hey guys have anyone tried to or currently using F2FS on the phone? Do you think it's stable? If so how can I change to F2FS (cause for the love of god I can't find any guide)?
My friend recently change to F2FS on his Mi6X and it's absolutely feels different so I'm quite interested in this atm.
Thank you in advance!

Goto the kernel ROMs section and look for arters thread. He has a guide on getting F2FS enabled on the data partition plus with his kernel. Recent reports show you're not bound to his kernel so you can experiment with what works and what doesn't.
Overall you won't expect that much of a performance jump since the OP6 is pretty great as it is but you can judge for yourself
I had the arter kernel with havoc os for a week and I didn't see any performance improvements, more so, the battery life got a LOT worse than with ext4. Also, you can't encrypt your phone with f2fs and twrp won't be bootable (unless you do it with fastboot boot).

I'm using f2fs now... Very stable... Very fast... No bugs encountered so far.... Used f2fs with arter kernel on 9.0.4, then moved with it to Radioactive kernel without any problem.... And now using f2fs with Elemental X 3.11(3.10)... Verrrryyy STABLE... USE IT ONLY ON DATA... AND CAN FLASH EVERYTHING WITHOUT PROBLEMS...

Hey man so what is your experience with ElementalX compared to arter kernel? I think arter is good since he build it from CAF but I also look for another kernel since I need Kcal, cuz iPhone screen spoiled me :v

What are you looking for in a kernel?
ElementalX is a very stable oriented kernel. Imagine it like a stock+ type of kernel that you can rely on. And if you like tweaking your own stuff it's perfect since you can do just about anything you need.
I personally have not used arters work but it's almost the opposite. He's moving away from the OP stock work since he disagrees with it. He does aim for better cleaner performance.

That's exactly where I'm confusing, OP stock or CAF stock (as Arter mentioned), I'm looking for battery life with stable and consistent performance (the OP is strong enough so I'm not looking forward to boosting it more)
I used Arters kernel and RZ, too with F2FS.
But at the end I stick with Smurf. Feels bit smoother at all.
so is there a howto
I tried changing it in twrp and rebooting and then just get dumped back into recovery.

The instructions are in Arter post in the Kernel thread, basically, you format your data as f2fs, and flash f2fa_fstab then boot.
Please look in the thread for detailed instructions

that didnt work either, his guide just boot loops recovery. But maybe his only works with his kernel.
But I tried the one in this thread again and it worked second time.
