yes, its possible.
He must root though.
He has to root, and install the clockwork recovery, then using clockwork recovery flash a kernel WITH VOODOO and then hes done.
Make sure to flash the correct kernels per firmware.
like..
most of the kernels you see on dev section are for 2.2+
2.1 kernels are on a thread made by supercurio about VOODOO kernels, im on a phone and cannot search so i'll leave it to you.

Pretty sure you don't need root to flash the appropriate stock+voodoo kernel in Odin via download mode.

I'm not sure if you can install it with the stock recovery because I use the ClockworkMod. You should just get Rom Manager from the market and flash it. It's simple. For Ext2 you can use it on a stock kernel fine with OCLF in the market. For Voodoo (Ext4) you need to flash a kernel that comes with it on a Rom that supports it. Like Bionix.

Whoops. Learn something new everyday. It didn't work for me on stock JI6 though, so I figured you needed a compatible ROM.

[Q] Can't install voodoo lag fix please help!

I have my phone running axura 2.1, my baseband is t959uvjk6, 2.2 firmware, and kernel version 2.6.32.9. I tried twice to install Voodoo Lagfix using the Update.zip method and after reboot i hear the voice saying compelete but the phone just stays on the 'Samsung Vibrant' screen.
What am i doing wrong ?
Which voodoo are you using? I hope its not jac's oc/uv one from a few months ago. Thats a 2.1 kernel and will never work on a 2.2 rom. Make sure you use one of the ones in supercurios thread for voodoo 5.x

This happened to me using the one from oclf. My solution was to wipe phone and install nero v3. That worked out. Check out supercurios voodoo thread.

Download kernel + voodoo from supercurio. The thread is here in the dev section or bible.

It was voodoo beta4 I believe.. But I like axura and would love voodoo lag fix.. So what should I install and how?

[KERNEL] EB01 Voodoo

Please find below a kernel based on the EB01 leak, packaged up with voodoo
This kernel only includes the Voodoo ext4 lagfix, as without source code, Voodoo sound and color fixes are not possible. Full credit to Supercurio for the Voodoo lagfix code, as well as the scripts I used to package it all into this kernel.
The kernel is also modified to support external bootanimations, ie: /system/media/bootanimation.zip.
The package will also flash a modified recovery, which can be used with both Voodoo and non-Voodoo installations.
Enjoy

Voodoo sound won't be possible until Samsung releases the source code.
Thanks so much! Can't wait for the next instalment.
Is the confirmation voice working? Can we disable in recovery or do we have to create the file?

Is this kernel different/newer than the voodoo kernel packaged with SC2.1vd?
