Hi there
The kind of kernel published here are only stock kernels, which means the exact same code build by Samsung for Vibrant phones.
Of course, there's a difference: Voodoo lagfix 5 stable has been injected in them, with its extensions and also ClockWorkMod recovery as default recovery.
Voodoo lagfix converts /system, /cache, /dbdata and /data to Ext4 with optimized parameters for speed but also guaranteeing data integrity.
Also, it configures the write behavior of Linux to prevent lag from happening, plus apply some memory management providing a better balance than stock settings.
Also supported: custom boot animation, init.d scripts and an improved adb shell (new!)
This kernel also installs the su binary for your convenience. Only activated once you download Superuser App from market. If you don't want to "root" your phone, skip this part.
How do choose the version?
The best version is the closest to the one of the ROM / system you run.
If you use a custom ROM instead of an official Samsung one, ask your ROM dealer which one is closer
update.zip you can flash with ClockWorkMod recovery (not 2e or 3e) or SGS Kernel Flasher
JL3+Voodoo http://dl.project-voodoo.org/stock+...+Voodoo-Froyo-T959D-TLJL3-unsigned-update.zip
.tar you can flash with Odin or Heimdall
JL3+Voodoo http://dl.project-voodoo.org/stock+Voodoo/tarballs/stock+Voodoo-Froyo-T959D-TLJL3.tar
Note, please disable any other lagfix previously installed, especially OCLF-kind (the conversion to Ext4 would take ages)
These kernels are only for Telus Fascinate (T959D), sorry Verizon Fascinate pals.
EDIT: How Lame, I created this thread in the General section after seeing other T959D threads here ^^ A moderator help is welcome
Thank you!
Just flashed this and enabled the voodoo lagfix! So far so good! Just a note...I have SGS Kernel flasher and it won't flash the .tar, it will flash the .zip.
Quadrant score: 1517 first try, 1577 second try.
Just sent you a little donation, thank you again.
Thank you, I updated now the post, also to say it's tested
THANK YOU!!!
Glad to see you on the fascinate, even if it is not the verizon version.

Wow wow wow.....thank you so much for this.
Custom roms for the T959D, YES?!?!!!!
Anyways, i appreciate your hard work. Is there any common issues?
is there anyway we can get this kernal overclocked and undervolted? im not giving up my 1.28ghz so i can have a working home button
Flashed this last night and everything is working fantastically. Many thanks as well as a donation later today.

An overclocked version of this kernel would be fantastic as well, is that in the realm of possibility?

Im running Nero v5 ROM which I understand is KA5 with the Speedmod Kernel on my Telus Fascinate T959D and its running superb
If I flash over the KA6 kernel, will I lose the Speedmod Kernel along with all the TWEAKS ??
With all these kernels around including the Voodoo injected T959D just posted by supercurio Im wondering whether which will be the best combination with Nero v5...Voodoo 5.2 lagfix is also now available so confused...
Question from a first time flasher.
Do I have to rename the zip to "update.zip" in order to flash?
Never mind. Apparently not!
ok so i've went through the threads here and pretty much got a handle on what's what but some are little outdated. though since i'm new, i've already applied the ED01 froyo OTA update from stock as soon as i opened it up and a lot of the stuff here are applied to older firmwares. so first things first, i tried to root using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790004 using the fascinateRootv02 but no go. i hear you can use superoneclick but looking at the superonelick thread, samsung fascinate is not supported? so if someone can point me to the right direction, i would appreciate it.
so with that said, i know there are a lot of roms available. i want to just stick to one that works well and avoid much as possible in keep changing roms. so what is the most popular roms out of the bunch?
thanks!

You are correct. You can just odin a CWR of your choice and then flash a ROM with the Super User package already in place and kaboom rooted
Superonelick (version...let me look here.....ugh... version 1.8) is fascinate compatible and I myself have used it before.
cheers.
** Edit **
To answer you question OP, the most popular ROM is Ultimatekangbang (Community ROM v1.x), Evil Fascination, and CyanogenMod 7 (Koas or CM7 by JT **Gingerbread**)
Quick break down
Kangbang (Comm)
-Community developed and updated frequently
-Most popular
-Comes with an overclockable/undervoltable kernel (up to 1.6ghz)
Evil Fascination
-2nd only to Kangbang
-Great ROM very clean
-No kernel (since I last checked could be wrong)
- Just use one of the PBJ kernels that are under volted for better battery life
-beta testing the LG android launcher
CM7
-Gingerbread (2.3)
-Camera, MMS, and BT do not function until a 2.3 official leak is obtained
-Smooth and completely open source
-heavily customizable
I use Kangbang 1.3 with the 100uv PBJ kernel and I see no crashes or force closing issues alongside 25 to 30 hours of battery life under normal use.

Could you great guyz suggest me the best debloated and all stock rom which is smooth to operate, has great battery life and doesnt hVe any known issues.
I would b highly thankful for the help, pl link me to the threads guyz.

If you followed the steps by dnoyeb, then you are correctly set up on a debloated/deodexed ED01 ROM. Your baseband is the modem/radio and would not have changed after you followed Adrynalyne's post to get to ED01 quickly. You flashed imnuts' ED03 ODIN package which would have given you the stock ED03 ROM and kernel, but not the ED03 modem so you were still at ED01 modem which is fine. Then you followed dneyob's steps to flash the ED01 Debloated/Deodexed ROM which would have changed you to the ED01 build from ED03 build. For all intents and purposes ED01 and ED03 are the same thing. ED03 simply added in a fix for those people who could not receive the ED01 OTA update. The verizon and android both flashing at the same time is just an overlapping boot animation that happened because as I recall you could not do a complete data wipe/factory reset for fear of losing the verizon network while you are in India. So other than that little quirk of the overlapping boot animations, you should be exactly where you wanted to end up - a debloated ED01 ROM and with imnuts' -100mv kernel you should see better battery life if your phone can handle the undervolting.
Congrats!
i guess i did exactly as you have outlined,
i am now gonna caliberate the battery and will revert tomorrow about the backup and stuff
love ya

when i first was learning how to root and flash, the thread for the evilfascination rom taught me everything i know. it does a great job in describing the steps to root and then flash the rom. i personally stuck with the evil fascination because its been so stable from the getgo and i love the overall theme of it. I kept getting peculiar bugs with comrom that i did not know enough yet to try and fix.
I suggest you go to the fascinate android development forum, and read the evil fascination thread.
I updated my post on the first page with links incase anyone else was looking at a quick rundown with links on how to get to a fully rooted / debinged / debloated type setup quickly.
Thanks a bunch matey.
God bless.

so you mean u didnt go for debloated ed01 from adryn and not even the kernal ?
if yes then someday i might also wanna try this out, coz as and when i use 3G my battery drains like hell with the debloated setup as well.
would appreciate some more suggestions.

with EA28 and ED04 + PBJ sv 531 kernal i get pretty much good backup and good 3g speeds too.

I've been doing pretty well at flashing new roms and thought i had the hang of it. But when I went from a complete stock fascinate > root > Correct Rom manager install > to Cyanogen mod 7 rom. I can not send or receive sms. I have flashed a couple other roms and even the new nightlies for Cm7. Am I missing something? Is it kernel Based?
Sorry for the newbness of it. But I have been working on this for a couple days now.

I would suggest to use Odin to flash recovery, or VZW roms (when starting fresh or returning to stock, or if the rom is made for Odin flashing) and use cwm recovery to install roms, kernels, zip files or whatever and get away from rom manager...it doesn't work well with the fascinate and while some files and recovery's will flash through rom manager you'll save yourself a lot of headaches if you learn Odin and cwm, now....its not hard, you just have to read, and read and read, especially the stickies in the a and a and Dev section. ultimately though I think you're problem is based on using rom manager for you're install.
This will get you on the right track and all off the links for Odin, recovery, and instructions are in the first post.

EC09 has proven to have the best performance with all the GB roms (since it's a modem from the GB vzw leak). But it's not the newest since build date is E=2011 C=march 09th.
good day.
Hi all,
I have a few questions now I am running cm7. And I can't find the answers propably because (you're a NOOOB!!!) I lack some basic understanding of the relation between kernels, mods, modems etc.
First the situation: SGS2 (duh) rooted using CF-Root OXA KG3. Flashed CM7 nightly (88 or 89 don't know from the top of my head).
My understanding of the parts is limited to the rom (cm7) is running on top of the kernel. Where the modem fits in I don't know.
Now the questions:
1. Does cm7 have (and am I running) it's own kernel or am I still on CF-Root?
2. If I want to switch to another kernel how would I do it and where can I find kernels working well with cm7? (I know about Swi7chblades thread)
3. Where is the modem for and can I change and improve it? (sorry couldn't find it in the guides nor the glossary on the wiki)
And I thought I had more but will say what pops up when I read your answers.
I think CM7 has a own kernel but i'm not sure
SiyahKernel v2.0 will work for you if you are still running CM7

Yeah I am still running CM7 and plan to stay there until their is either an ICS version or another ICS rom. Thanks for the kernel suggestion will check it out.
edit: SiyahKernel v2.0 looks promising, I'll put it on the list of things to try.
I tried siyah 2.0 stable but it wasn't a success. I ended up going back to stock and flashing cm7 again. On the modem front I flashed to KI4 and things seem a little better. But I still don't really know what to look for. Anyone?
CM7 has the kernel from cyanogen dev codeworkz. I'm using siyah ATM though which is decently stable.
