Hi guys,
Tried searching around other threads but to no avail, This is my question:
I have running stock insecure kernel with setcpu to underclock it. I want to learn new stuff about undervolting. I am looking to new Franco Kernel as it will have undervolt function. However, in built within the franco kernel, i can overclock, underclock and undervolt, whichever i want. Hence, i know i do not need setcpu anymore.
What happens if i keep setcpu and only arrange the values from the kernel. Will the setcpu profiles interfere with the kernel behaviour? Is it a good idea that i keep the app, or just delete it.
Thank you all for your time.
Cheers,
Anjoid :fingers-crossed:
Personally I'd only use one app to control my cpu clocks. It might be ok to use two if they have the same settings but either way it just confuses things unnecessarily.
I use system tuner pro for all my clocking and volting. That way I'm not dependant on using any one kernel. I used to use set cpu but system tuner does everything it does and more.

thanks for your advise! mm. i guess if i dl a kernel that can do those i will just delete SetCPU. i am looking into franco kernel or maybe ninphetamin3. i'll have to do more research.
i'm sorry i am pretty new in the android scene, and i was thinking of flashing speedmod kernel for sgs3. i am using a mac, and seems like the only way to install the kernel is via odin. so, i guess that's a no for me right? haha.

Dude Google "mobile Odin" there is a thread right here on xda. You can use it to flash Odin files right from your phone, no computer necessary at all.

You can use mobile odin to flash (if you already have root). You can get it from the market (play store) or find it here on XDA for free.

Hi...
Greetings all.. Just joined the site today..That was a nice video intro to join
Am from india having this SGS II (GT - I9100) I updated the stock 2.3.3 to 2.3.6 by odin method after using the guidance in xda and rooted it using super user So far so good Now the thing is i searched the forum for 2days relating to this but couldn get any clear idea :
I want Voodoo LOUDER in my mob. I dunno which kernal supports it and whether any kernal has this inbuilt. Also i would be grateful if some1 tells me/ gives link to install such kernal
Btw wats the diff bet ROM and kernal ?
Plz help.. Thanks in adv..
Hi, welcome.
I don't know about every kernel but Voodoo louder definitely works for me on chainfires KK5 cfroot kernel and also on the experimental cm9.
More info can probably be obtained from the voodoo louder thread.
In layman's terms...
Firmware is all the stock software on your device.
A Rom for our purposes is a custom firmware compilation that has been modified in various ways to add or remove functionality. All are different.
A kernel is the basic operating system or brains of the device.
Im sure others will give you a more detailed explanation.
Good luck with it all.

SiyahKernel supports Vodoo Louder.
^ Yep, Siyah, SpeedMod K19, CF and Stock kernels are supported.
If I can read English right then Supercurio recommended Stock kernel.
Swyping from my GT-I9100 via Tt
I am currently using Siyah kernel latest version and then bought the voodoo Louder app from market. Download siyah and you should be fine. Regarding rom and kernel combination...Not going to tell you as you have to make your own mind regarding what is best....So many roms read have a look and you decide..Always read the first pages and then last ten pages to get a feel what people think of the rom...That way you can make your mind up.
Good luck anyway
Speedmod, NEAK kernel, Siyah, CF-root kernels( dont try it though since you are already rooted) are few kernels that support voodoo...but anyway il keep an eye on this thread to see how you get on

Thanks for the reply
I tried and installed the Voodoo Louder compatibility apk and it says 'Your device has been successfully configured' so that means it will work in mine correct ? I can proceed to buy it ? Or any other way to get it as a trial or free apk ?

what's a kernal?
The kernel in android is the linux kernel, it contains various drivers like the display, camera, bluetooth, wifi etc etc. its sort of the interface between the hw and the sw,
According to the changelog, VLouder should work with any kernel now.
Hi, I have Sensation 2 by Crisis on my SGS2 and Voodoo Louder says that its broken/incompatibile kernel. Can I install another kernel for this rom? I like it much so i dont want to change it :/
Yes but a kernel is going to be not the same but you probably wont notice the difference .
jje
So it doesnt matter if it be NEAK or smth?
Hi, I am from Germany and cant download Voodoo Louder from the market. It is not available in my country.
So is there a possibility to install it anyhow?
Does anyone have the apk file?
I really need this app! Why is it even locked?
Thanks!
Same problem for me. I cant Find IT even with market enabler.

Ok I am really confused about this. So I just rooted my new Galaxy S II I got (the CF method using ODIN) and I was considering installing Cyanogenmod. However I changed my mind when I decided I could put a kernel on the stock instead. Now when I read thread for the kernel (as well as going to the website) it says it includes CWM touch Recovery with gesture support. Now does this mean when I flash the kernel with the recovery I got from rooting, it will also flash over the current recovery to the touch one? If I get OTA updates and apply them, will it remove the kernel and my root access? Also I am wondering has anyone had problems with this kernel?
Thanks for all the help.
Ainslie.
1) If you flash Siyah, it will overwrite/replace the current version of recovery you have, yes.
2) If you flash any stock firmware (including OTA updates), yes, of course you'll lose root. Any update will have a new stock kernel which will replace your existing kernel. If you do an update, you'll need to re-root your phone.
3) I've been using Siyah since about the 2nd week I got my phone (>8 mths) both Gingerbread & ICS and I've never had any major problems with it.
In saying that, obviously your experience with a given rom or kernel will not be exactly the same as someone else, because everyone has their phone setup differently/uses it differently.
So do a Nandroid backup in CWRecovery before you try Siyah, and if you don't like it, restore your backup. If you're going to use Siyah, I very much recommend you read the dev & discussion threads (certainly since Gokhan has been doing ICS builds at least). Any questions once you've installed it/started using it, ask them in the discussion thread (not the dev thread).
Ah cool thanks.
Also just one more questions.
When the new recovery is flashed with the ROM will the CF-ROOT custom CWM app work with it? Or will I have to download ClockworkMod from the Play Store?

Hi,
When u install siyah kernel, it includes the cwm app with the kernel. And the app is the same app you get in the cf- root kernel.
Siyah kernel is by far superior to cf-root. If you set it up right, you can get much better battery life. And it is so smooth. I would recommend that u use siyah..
Cheers

If you have siyah kernel installed, you can download an application from the play store called "extweaks"
If you open that you will find the option to under volt the cpu

Ps
And also, if you want really good battery life, go in to cwm recovery, go to "kernel specific options" and click on "battery optimised" that will set everything to get you the best battery life.

Cool! Thanks heaps for the help!
If im going to flash new kernel with my custom kernel do i need to wipe something or it will just overwrite on it it and i dont need to wipe?
Thanks for the answer in advance..
Just flash it, don't worry about anything else.
Sometimes there might be scripts in etc/init.d but not usually. Depends on the dev. Some rom devs have scripts there too.

I did flash a new kernel and it works perfect. I think its been overwitten. Thank you bro!
Oh sir one more thing my kernel is siyah s3 v1.4 how can i updATE it to higher version? Do i need to download the new version and just flash it or is there an update button for this and no flashing required? Thanks..
Just download latest version and flash it
just download and flash it
if download .zip version, flash using cwm recovery
.tar version then flash using either pc or mobile odin
Thank you guys!

Siyah is a good well developed kernel , it comes with a configuration app, but the default settings work great....from there is a matter of watching the thread, reading and learning about what all the various tweaks do, usual rules apply,....don't mess with stuff until you understand what you are doing
This may be a really stupid question but I'm still learning
So after soft bricking my phone once today already I have now backed everything up so I don't have to redo everything when I undoubtedly mess something up again
I'm trying to overclock my s3 but I know I can't do this on the stock kernels, do I need to install a whole custom Rom or can I just use a custom kernel. If so how would I do this? Thanks

Hi, firstly if I was you I would read all of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827635. This will explain about the dangers etc of overclocking on our specific device. Then, do you have a custom recovery installed? Like CWM? If you do and if you understand all the risks associated with overclocking, then you would look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709686 This is siyha kernel, I trust this developer a lot, I have used his kernels ever since he first released one for the galaxy s2 a couple of years ago. You should read the full OP, and if you feel you are ready you just download the appropriate kernel zip, as in make sure it is for the galaxy s3. Also, make sure you flash the right kernel for your android version, like an ICS kernel will not work with a Jelly Bean rom and the other way round. Then simply flash it in Clockworkmod recovery and slowly and safely play around. I can't stress this enough, only play around with things after you fully understand what it is and does as overclocking can cause hardware damage. I hope this helps you

You have to have a rooted phone to flash kernels. The Cubed kernel is a modified kernel for root users that gives you the ability to overclock your phone, better battery life and such. It is not the one that came with the DNA, the DNA is the stock kernel from the factory. Don't go by the numbers you see because they are 2 totally different kernels for totally different reasons...

I get random restarts as well on Cubed Kernel - untouched, didnt even change the governors. I guess a lot more optimizing needs to be done to it to support the variations in our devices.

This is the stock kernel but just modified to be able to write to the system while booted. It basically is the stock kernel and will work exactly like the stock kernel does. To switch kernels, just do what you did before when you installed the kernel you're on now. Just make sure you flash the correct module zip in recovery after you flash it.
