Just wondering if anybody has heard any news about voodoo sound for our fascinates is gonna come through, also im on super clean2.6 eb16 voodoo, I tried setting up bln but its not supportes by sc... Any roms available that actually do? Ive spent some time looking but no such luck...

If you would have searched and read, you would have found that voodoo sound and bln aren't going to work until source is available...
And for the likely follow up question, source isn't likely to be available until right around the time 2.2 is officially released.

Yeah I gathered that so far but, my question was to those that arent arrogant but to those that might be able to contribute usefully up to date info...
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
That's about as up to date as it gets. No source code = no true custom kernels = no voodoo sound.

No one can give a date for source until Samsung and/or Verizon give us a date for the official update release. If anyone had a date, I'm sure it would be all over the place...

It alters the codec(s) that are used to process audio going through the sound chipset in the phone to make it sound better.

Voodoo sound is, to me, the best part of voodoo. The audio hardware in the galaxy s is fantastic, the samsung driver for that hardware, not do much. Voodoo sound corrects that issue

I'm new too the whole rooting deal, but I know I want to. I already downloaded the one touch program or whatever it is. I was really just wandering about overclocking my cpu.
I've read that I will need to install a new kernel but I don't know which one. I just don't want it to change the look or operation of my phone. I like the touchwiz and everything,i just want to speed it up. Does any one know what I should do?
Also if I root will I be able to do the 2.2 update when it comes out?
Thanks for any help I can get.

As a newb myself let me try and help. First off take some time and do alot of research on rooting, flashing roms and kernals. Read, read and read. There is alot of info here. It is possible to mess your phone up if you dont know what your doing. Now thay being said...... Using ryanza root plus lag fix is probably the easiest way to root. If your hard ware locked,well thats another story. And if you want to overclock you will need a custom kernal, remember what I said about reading. Now depending on the kernal you may or may not be able to get the 2.2 when it rolls out. Just take some time and educate yourself, and for goodness sake please make nandroid before you do anything drastic.

Like greggory said, you should check to see if you are hardware locked (cannot access download and recovery modes).
To check:
1 turn off your phone
2 Hold volume + and - and power buttons
3 Keep holding until you see the vibrant screen pop up a second time. Now release ONLY the power button, still holding volume + and -.
4 Keep holding volume buttons until you get to the recovery screen. Then release.
If your phone continues to boot normally, you are hardware locked.
If you are locked, go to the Bible thread and scroll until you see the hardware locked fix. Follow the directions there.
The Bible thread should have everything you need to know about modding your phone.

Thanks alot, I will check out the bible.
And good news for me, my phone is not hardware locked.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Thats good its not locked. The bible is a great tool for info. I also read some of the post by bionix , involving custom roms. Check out there website. teamwhiskey.com. Just be sure you make a backup thru rom manager in case you mess something up. This is a awesome forum with alot of knowledgable people. Unfortunately Im not one of them....

It looks like JAC's OC/UV kernel would be the best for overclocking. Does that sound like a good assumption?
Would that change the way phone looks or functions, in terms of regular use like touch wiz?

I like the JAC kernel and no, it won't change anything about the way your phone looks. It'll just run faster
Great. Would you suggest the regular kernel or the voodoo one?
And thanks again for all the help.

I'm still learning too, although I know I'll never really dip into programming. I use Bionix 1.9 with Jac's kernal. I did have a problem with Pandora and the media player shutting off, but after adjusting the min mhz to 400, it hasn't frozen yet. I love this stuff. I just wish I could get an asnwer on how to flash some of the mods in the other forum like the clear notification bar. I posted in Q&A and never got a response. Too bad. I can't contribute, but I would still like to learn.....
So you haven't had any of the lag problems?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Ok, I guess I'm going with bionix 1.9 with JAC OC/UV voodoo. That sounds like a good tried and tested way to go.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
What is the difference between bionix 1.9 w/Jac's OC/UV kernel 1.1 and bionix 1.9 w/Jac's OC/UV/Voodoo kernel 1.1?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
The voodoo kernel has the voodoo lag fix already in it. If im not mistaken.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Alright. Now I think I'm going to use bionix fusion 1.1. Do I need to flash that before or after JAC's voodoo kernel?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
so the stock kernel isn't that good?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
From what I've read the voodoo kernel just has the added lag fix to speed up your phone more.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So is there any order to needing to flash bionix fusion and JACs OC/UV Voodoo?

The two top dogs around here imo are bionex or axura. Each have their own pros and cons (barely cons). I'm personal to Axura myself, although im still on nero v5. Been getting tired of redoing my homescreens over and over again. I suggest going into the release threads, found in developmet forum, for the respective roms and taking a look at screen shots and youtube search video reviews.
You really cant go wrong either way. Check out the rom bible thread for more awesome roms.
I would defantly stick with the Auxura rom or Som's Bionex rom, Ive bounced between the two, Each rom has it's own feel, while Axura's roms are ultra fast, The Bionex rom has more Gingerbread feel and smoothness, Make your own decesion, but as the previous poster said you can't go wrong with either of them.
Just a word of advice, get in the habbit of disabling Voodoo each time you flash, I made the mistake once and ended up softbricking the phone and it was a nightmare for me getting it back to stock via ODIN.
Good Luck
Actually, if you already have voodoo installed and the rom you're flashing to also has it, you don't need to disable it. I speak from experience

This is true, but new. It has only been that way for a little while. Also it ONLY is true if you are going from Voodoo 5 to Voodoo 5 (meaning the one that has the RED recovery).

Noob question here. Does the ed01 kernel support boot animations with sound? If not which kernels do?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
I've been waiting for this too. AFAIK none of the available kernels support this. The last I heard, the devs needed the source to reenable this, so hopefully it will be possible soon.
That's what I had read but I thought getting a kernel with voodoo sound would fix this issue. I guess not. Well back to xda for some more reading. thanks for the info

It has to be written into the kernel. As far as I remember, Pershoot stopped adding it in last year. So the answer is probably "no." Search the forums. BTW- it's called "voodoo" not "vodoo" (that will help your search).
Well I mean the 3 usd app in market as it's not clear on what or what not its compatible with it... I'm pure honeycomb stock rooted and would like to buy the app.

I'm telling you, it needs to be written into the kernel. The app (if you're talking about the one I think you are) is just to change the settings.
Well maybe I'm stupid but read yourself
It says with or without custom kernel and I understand as non custom kernel stock kernel

It clearly states that it will work on "custom kernels implementing voodoo patches". According slack04 our kernel is not patched. And probably this is the truth, since there is no such thing mentioned in pershoot's thread. Maybe ask him whether the kernel is voodoo enabled.!
EDIT: it says that tab 10.1 is not supported, but it will be, read all the way down! And yes, you were right. It appears that certain customkernels are supported, at least that is understood by what it says!

voodoo extensions (from supercurio) is still in the kernel and enabled.
oops! I sort of remember some folks having issues with it in old kernels. My bad.
