Eh17 kernels with voodoo color fix? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I didn't read anywhere on chris's kernel plus version mentioning voodoo, not sure if that's a given or just not cooked in. I'm on stock eg22 kernel. I know starskys rom was going to have it but I don't want his rom, lol can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I know some EC05 kernels had it but I don't recall anything except voodoo sound being included anymore

I looked around for this a while back, and found a bunch of dead ends honestly. But I found a thread on XDA that says Supercurio supported the Nexus S on GB but not the Galaxy S line, running stock roms for the most part. Probably because none of us are legitimately on Gingerbread.

[Q] Sooo... Any update on ACS 1.3?

It's been a few months and 1.2 is STILL the best ROM in my opinion. Just... any new news on the development for 1.3?
John did mention a new kernel would be included with 1.3 but that it wouldn't be Vision Kernel as was expected a while back. Other than that, rjmjr69 (leader of ACS) hinted that 1.3 would be "coming soon" in the 1.2 thread not to long ago, so we shouldn't be waiting much longer. My GUESS (which should be taken with a grain if salt) would be that it's in its testing stages and being prepped for release, hopefully before Oct? We'll see what happens tho, someone on the inside is bound to tip us off with a teaser or something soon.

LOL ... yep , when rjmjr69 posted that , I got my phone ready , but still waiting ... LOL
Yeah, when they are trying to add a new kernel, new tweaks, Hotspot hack,etc it can get tricky. Especially the kernel part. You have to test so many configurations to confirm stability. For all I know, the kernel may not make it in. I will contact some people to try and get more details

It will be based on froyo, iirc, which would mean it'l be outdated at release. They may have considered that...

Thanks, Ceelos! That's what I needed to hear! In my opinion, I think ACS should just "strongly" suggest a good kernel for us to include instead of making one. But, I'm happy with 1.2 at the moment.
I tried the Hurricane ROM and the volume was waaay too loud. I reverted back to ACS 1.2 and I'm happy as a clam.

If it doesnt get released before official Gingerbread then maybe they rethink releasing it

Usually teams seem to recommend a fellow team,member's or friend's kernel but the one that is the most current is Genocide 2.0 that has Voodoo 10. Maybe I will go through all of the kernels and test for battery life,speed, and whatever anyone asks

Since it is so easy to flash a kernel, and they dont normally change anything else in my setup, I tend to have as many as possible on my SD to cycle through until I find the one that works the best on my setup
ehhh , im done with froyo .. i dont feel like backtracking now.

Man, I have more unreleased test kernels than official releases. Maybe Rodderik is working on something new. I know 2 others who are but I won't name them so they don't get bombed with ETA posts..lol

Just hearing the part about you knowing 2 devs that are working on kernels is a breath of fresh air to me. I've been wondering when new kernels would start to roll out again. I was hoping for an update to Vision and Genocide kernels, especially after the efficiency keyboard patch was released by mkasick. Hope to see some updated, and possibly new, kernels.

I agree 100%. I have as much fun messing with a new kernel as I do a new ROM. Its more risky testing them because you can fry your phone but that's part of the fun! Lol

They should not include a custom kernel. One of the best thing in 1.2 was the stock kernel. Custom kernels sometimes make apps to FC. I had issues,random reboots, FCs with custom kernel. That why I choose 1.2 because it have a stock kernel, no issues since first install(well in my wife Epic it lost the root).

1.2 did not have a kernel it keeps whatever kernel you had before. Im sure it lost root on your wife's epic cause it was probably stock and root is usually baked in the kernel

(REQUEST) kernel or ROM with voodoo sound support

I tried looking through a few pages of the dev section and didn't see anything regarding this feature. Is it obsolete? If I could make a wish list for features baked in, then here they are:
Stock kernel
No ciq
Cal's battery life mod
Ek02 would be good but el26 would be nicer
No themes
odex, but if it would be easier to deodex then go ahead
Nothin fancy. Thanks ahead of time if someone does this.

Shouldn't be hard to find something real close to that in the dev section already. I'm not sure if anyone has a kernel with voodoo sound support yet.
Would love to have voodoo sound. Made video recordings in a loud environment on my OG Epic possible.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Even if its bone stock with voodoo sound/screen capable kernel, I'd be happy.
One thing I just thought about, maybe our phones don't have the sound chip hardware that the galaxy 1's had. I don't know the specifics so I couldn't speculate. Maybe there could be a voodoo sound/screen driver for galaxy 2 phones. Like voodoo^2
And bln support too

That's my understanding too. I don't think we will ever see Voodoo on this phone unfortunately. I am using the paid PowerAmp. It has a nice EQ. You can also check out AudioBoost SGS2 and Equalizer apps from the Market

[Q] Where has kernel development gone?? D:

Sooo its been a while since i have seen any new MTD kernels besides one for CM9...anyone working on anything??
Because CM9 is where it is at.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
And they probably feel they have taken the kernels on TW EL30 MTD as far as they can go. Earthbound may have a newer MTD kernel on his IAP sight.
I don't get this. If custom kernelss have integrated many performance enhancing features then why do we keep needing new ones? Isn't it a good thing if we've gotten everything we need out of them and can just use the phones? I mean if someone finds something else that can be done I'm all for it, but this sounds more like a flasher addict's cry for a fix than anything else.

If you think about the stock kernel is a custom one too just someones kernel pre packaged is all and to think of it when something doesn't work out and needs tweaking what happens the dev's of the rom tweak the pre packaged kernel.
Seems like just because someone else's kernel doesn't mean they aren't going to do the same thing. Adding stuff to a kernel more features, makes it more friendly and helps in the long end dont you think?

El29 to fd16?

Ok I'm on blazer rom on el29. Im considering going to ics roms but I don't wanna screw something up. I'm fairly new to this stuff and I just need something to specifically tell me what to do and how to do it. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Check the sticky thread in general about how not to brick your phone. It explains everything 100%

The majority of the ROMs out there right new have very specific instructions on how to flash them.
If you're looking for a sick experience just use one of sfhub's one-click updates. They also have specific instructions on what to do.
Either way I'd still read the how not to brick thread. With all the leaks ICS for our phones is a constantly changing beast, anything you can read and learn from will help you prevent any bricking.
Good luck!
Is it even worth switching to the fd? I personally love the one im on but idk. Better.or worse then GB?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
My advice to you is never leave blazer rom until full Ics source and kernels are released. Blazer rom is the only rom with unbelievable battery life and performance, I have made the switch to Ics many times over battery life performance is just unusable. Hopefully phantom hacker can do whatever magic he did with blazer rom to blazer Ics.
I'll keep that in mind, thank you. I'll continue to stalk the threads until something better comes along.

{Q} Any themes for calkulin 1.6 ics?

I was just wondering if there was any themes for the calkulin 1.6 ics rom. I love this rom and calkulin did an amazing job on it but the theme is so...stock touchwiz..which i was never crazy about..I would love even the calkulin rom with the stock ics theme. If there are forums on this already I'm sorry. It's kind of hard to find exactly what you are looking for. If anyone knows of any theme please point me the right way. Thank You.

i know people love calks roms but since he's not here anymore (as in on this phone, not xda in general...) I might suggest just moving to something like mijjahs goodness or blu kuban... those roms are both largely de-touchwizzed and look and feel more like an AOSP rom. Both are built from ff18, as opposed to the older leaked fe22 and have tons of great built in features like rom updater, which makes it really easy to be lazy and still have tons of cool stuff... additionally they are still very much being actively supported and are gaining tons of new features now that the devs have source to play with... I know you were just looking for a theme but this would accomplish the same thing and put you on an actively updated and more current rom at the same time.... one last note if you do go this route be sure to flash one of agat63 or chris41g's safe ics kernels to flash from, or Odin back to an el rom as stock fe22 kernel can cause emmc bricks...

I highly recommend the goodness by Mijjah74, I may sometime flash another ROM but I always go back to his. He is making themes from his ROM so you can make it look how you want.
