All these volume control "problems" are caused by the new Voodoo App. supercurio has modified the way the hardware volume buttons work... if u don't like it, use the old version first. hopefully supercurio sorts it out soon.

P.S. The next version of SpeedMod will have selectable color temperature and brighter auto-brightness minimum in CWM, so it will be one version for all.

Sounds great, thanks hardcore!
one step closer to a completely user-configurable configurable auto-brightness

about the volume buttons: according to supercurio, the new behavior ensures the best sound possible:
FAQ:

How to get the best sound quality ?

The best quality for headphone is obtained:
1/ by setting the Android digital sound level to the maximum or close to it
2/ then using the new analog level to choose the sound pressure that suits your needs
This way, you will get the lowest hiss, best signal-to-noise ratio and lowest distortion.

Edit: I'v just updated to the latest version of voodoo control app and it does look a bit strange...

Guys having weird weird issues flash K12U again see if that fixes the issue. If not disable all tweaks boot into android and then go back into recovery and enable all tweaks again.

I know this should have no effect, but it has helped me and its not going to kill you to see if it helps you as well.

You just released K12U.
Does it have these color temperature & auto-brightness settings in CWM??

I just tried that, it didn't work. I even tried using Odin to flash the kernel, disabled tweaks... video recording still doesn't work.

hi hardcore, thx 4 ur great work =)

i've already posted this on the voodoo sound thread, but maybe you're interested too:

i'd like to suggest a feature. some people may remember it from the SE Walkman phones:
by long pressing the volume down/up buttons you could go to the last/next song without activating the screen (standby)

do you think this would be possible for the galaxy s too?? would be soooo nice
i know that the lock screen has sort of shortcuts for that, but with the volume buttons you would not even have to look at the screen any more (i.e. driving in the car...)

c ya, sonic5

Use a player that supports the headpset mic switch to change songs:
  • doubble press next song
  • triple press prev song
...or the opposite, don't remember. PowerAmp has this feature, but maybe other free players has it too.

For the car...use something like this: http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110635574278&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT using only the cable from the jack to the mic, and connect a jack<->jack cable to it to connect to the car.

Now you have song selection...by a click...and you only need a cable in you hand, non a phone ;)

does it matters if i applied lagfixes on O2 optimisations then changed to kernel with O3 ?

It does not matter. What the lagfix really does is convert the file system from one type to another. This means that if you use EXT4 you should be able to use any kernel with support for EXT4 without the need for "unlagfixing" in between. In practice there might be differences in mount options that might have some impact so follow the kernel developers' instructions.

you might have to do a back up and flash the Rom again. i was having a few strange issues with my SGS last few days. flashing the kernel didnt solve my problems either. i re-flashed the Rom, then the kernel and all is good again.

K12U was just out, but here is K13A-T1!

Changes:
- Single version for neutral/cold/warm color, selectable from Recovery
- Option to disable darkest auto-brightness level, selectable from Recovery
- Minor optimizations to brightness sensor driver

Otherwise it is the same as K12U.

You mean flashing a Rom like Darky's or Doc's? Or making a backup, wiping and then flashing that backup again? 'Cause I believe if I do that, the issue may not go away at all. I might give it a try though. Thanks for the input :)

Im assuming you have a custom Rom like docs or darkyys. i mean do a factory reset from CWM then flash Rom again then flash kernel. worked for me .

Is it just me or does apps look smaller now? Doodle Jump/Taskos/App Drawer for LauncherPro looks like it decreased in size and text look smaller? It has the same effect as LCD Density (note that I have already uninstalled LCD Density - haven't used it in months)
Could this be due to the new "AMOLED processing mode in MDNIE" setting hardcore? I'm using the latest Stable K12U

    Hi people. This kernel aims to be fast, compatible, stable, and have good battery life. It makes our Galaxy S run the way it should.

    This kernel is for the International Galaxy S (I9000) and Bell Mobility Vibrant (I9000M)

    The SpeedMod kernel for the AT&T Captivate is available here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=893880

    Note: Only lagfixes using EXT4 are robust. Other lagfixes run the risk of data loss on freezing, hard-reboots, or sudden power loss.

    WARNING: Before you try any lagfix, make sure that you have enough free space on your Internal SD. You should have at least more free space than data+dbdata+cache combined.

    Latest K13E (12-Apr) - Voodoo Sound v7. Lowmemorykiller fixes. Improved display sharpness using AMOLED processing mode in MDNIE. Support for voice calls through headphones. Check here for more info and downloads.

    >>> Click here for the installation procedure using Odin.

    >>> If you have questions, please read the FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions first!

    >>> What is the SpeedMod kernel?

    Latest features:

    - Compiled using codesourcery 2010.09: Faster and more battery efficient
    - The only properly working Tiny RCU implementation, thanks to Paul McKenney
    - More efficient: Removed debug logging from kernel and Android
    - Most updated version of my Enhanced Universal Lagfix fork with improved stability
    - Full Android 2.2.1 ROM compatibility

    This kernel has:

    - Based on JPX Android 2.2.1 kernel source
    - Works on all stock Froyo 2.2 and 2.2.1 ROMs and popular custom ROMs
    - 340MB RAM
    - Enhanced version of sztupy's Universal Lagfix
    - Includes neldar's BackLightNotification 2.3 from https://github.com/project-voodoo/backlightnotification/tree/master/kernel_patches/
    - Sharpness (AMOLED mode) & color fixes for the screen
    - SpeedMod: Replaced kernel jhash2 with jhash3
    - Includes my Startup Tweaks from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=813309
    - Adjusted kernel HZ value to improve smoothness
    - Uses BFQ IO scheduler by default, from http://algo.ing.unimo.it/people/paolo/disk_sched/sources.php
    - Updated ext4 code in kernel from http://www2.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-patches/
    - Properly working Tiny RCU for better speed and efficiency from http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=ke...it;h=9b1d82fa1611706fa7ee1505f290160a18caf95d
    - Patched lowmemorykiller for compatibility with Tiny RCU from http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=ke...ff;h=5545554aac04918ece318270d63cbfcb015577a9
    - Optimized compiler flags: -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp

    --------------------------------

    FOR BEGINNERS:

    This kernel is based on sztupy's Universal Lagfix: Lagfix and root options are accessible by booting into the Recovery Menu.

    To get the best speed, it is recommended that you enable all Tweaks from the Recovery Menu. Tweaks are under SpeedMod features. Info on Tweaks: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=813309

    How to root: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8896862&postcount=90

    Kernel HZ value: HZ=500 is smoother, HZ=256 is Samsung default.

    THANKS: Big thanks to sztupy for his kernel compiler VM and ULFK, lastufo for testing compiler optimizations, ykk_five for testing memory configs, and others who gave ideas or helped.

    --------------------------------

    WARNING: If you use a custom boot animation, apps like One Click Lag Fix will not work because it disables the playlogos1 script hack.

    The files with ending with -CWM are for flashing using Clockwork Recovery.
    These other zip files are for flashing with ODIN.

    --------------------------------

    About USB Mounts:

    >>> Click here to download the USB mount fixes. Latest SpeedMod versions do not need this fix. The fix is for using K12E or older with 2.2 ROMs. It fixes the problem where Internal SD mounts as a read-only drive on the PC, or if the External SD does not get mounted.

    On 12A, the battery seems better - but only marginally so - i still see Wifi using 35% on a mostly idle phone. If I remember right, the previous usage used to be around 5% - definitely single digit. Something is still wrong with wifi with JPY ROM/Modem....
    Its not the ROM or modem. I think its the new Wifi firmware. I've started a thread to collect Wifi firmware versions.

    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=885903

    In the meantime, if you want u can experiment. I've created update.zip packages to update/overwrite the wifi firmware (it's in /system/etc/wifi).

    You can try to use the older (DXJPA) wifi firmware and see how that does in terms of power.
    If you don't like it, you can put back the XXJPY wifi firmware with the other package.

    Let me know your findings, if u try it out.

    DXJPA wifi firmware is working fine with my XXJPY rom. Gonna check out the battery usage.

    FYI:
    DXJPA: Firmware version = wl0: Jun 4 2010 14:21:21 version 4.218.214.3
    XXJPY: Firmware version = wl0: Nov 16 2010 08:56:21 version 4.218.250.38

    K12U was just out, but here is K13A-T1!

    Changes:
    - Single version for neutral/cold/warm color, selectable from Recovery
    - Option to disable darkest auto-brightness level, selectable from Recovery
    - Minor optimizations to brightness sensor driver

    Otherwise it is the same as K12U.

    SpeedMod + Voodoo Sound test version!

    K12L-T5:

    Changes from K12K:
    - Improvements to FM Radio sound: remove Dynamic Range Compression
    - Voodoo Sound v1: FM radio bass fix, controllable headphone output via app
    - rear speaker volume +1 for media
    - light sensor polling interval changed to 2s instead of 0.5s
    (saves battery, more stable brightness levels)
    - light sensor sensitivity adjusted so that the screen doesn't turn bright so easily
    (saves battery and reduces screen burn)
    - adjustments to IO Tweak (super smooth now!)
    - changed battery level polling interval to 60 seconds, from 5 seconds

    Note that you need Supercurio's Voodoo app to adjust the headphone level. If u don't install it, the default level is the same level as K12K (+1 from Nexus S, or +3 from SGS).

    PS. The FM radio sound is really awesome after those voice filters have been removed!
