[KERNEL] SpeedMod Captivate [K13E HPCall VoodooSnd7 SharpnessFix STABLE]
- Thread starter hardcore
- Start date
same for me. but this is not the original kernel -- this is what the current 500 mhz version shows when flashed through cwm.
What a fantastically pretty kernel. The UI is absurdly fast but I'm still benchmarking lower than I used to in both Linpack and Quadrant.
I have to say, though, this was an easy flash and one that's gonna stick. I'll sack the few extra points on a chart for a kernel that feels and looks smooth as hell.
ugh... before I even posted this I realized that I'm falling into the no-usb-mass-storage category. is this possibly because i need i9000 drivers now?
after some rebooting and connecting/disconnecting, i seem to be sd-accessible once again

Flashed using ODIN and CWM - cannot tell if I have it but I would think I do - possibly it is no different than the kernel with the 2.5.1 AUXURA ROM I was running...either way - nice work...speed is important and BATTERY LIFE is important is, too.
I think there's a bug here.
Am on the 256 HZ version of kernel.
1. Connect to computer with debugging on
2. Turn on USB storage
<do ur work here>
3. Turn off USB storage
<wait for some time, say like a minute or two>
4. Turn on USB storage
Here, though the phone says 'usb turned on', on the computer I am unable to see my phone disks. This happened every time I tried.
Even in adb mode, it says device is offline.
I need to pull the cable out and plug it back in to see the drives on computer or for adb to recognize device as online.
Is this a bug? Is anyone else too noticing this? I am di11igaf's 3.0.2 ROM. I didn't see this behaviour earlier on the default kernel of that rom.

Sounds like a modem problem? Try flashing one from the modem thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835272) and see if that doesn't fix your problem.
A bonus of this being an i9000 kernel should be compatibility with the i9000 modems. Hooray.

Will require help 
Flashed the SpeedMod K12H with HZ=500 CWM BIGMEM file using CWM.
No problems, booted right up.
45 seconds later, opened ROM Manager and clicked on "Boot into Recovery" as I was on my way to do the tweaks.
Now stuck at Galaxy S load screen for 10+ mins.
Any thoughts / suggestions here?

I'm not sure if rom manager supports 9000 fully yet.
I'd recommend going into recovery either using 3 button combo or extended power menu available on most 9000 roms.
If it doesn't do it within a few seconds something went wrong, if I don't enter download mode a certain way it does that to me, make sure odin is opened before u connect the phone...disconnect the phone pull battery, close and reopen odin, then enter download mode and flash again...the only way mine works is if odin is open, pull battery, connect usb and while having vol down pressed I insert the battery then it goes into download mode ..now on my last captivate it was different..I had to have vol up and down plus pwr then insert usb....so it might not work that same exact way for you
As long as you can enter download mode its not bricked, you just have to find that sweet spot for odin to catch it
Make sure you have the tar file in the pda slot

Thats not the correct odin, that's odin one click, that will flash you back to stock ...it will wipe everything, there's another version of odin on here, u will have to search, with it you can just flash the kernel alone and you will be back to normal (in most cases)

It's ok.
I downloaded another version of Odin, that ended up looking exactly like this version, and then the magic started happening:
<ID:0/003> Added!!
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/003> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/003> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/003> Sbl.bin
<ID:0/003> boot.bin
<ID:0/003> cache.rfs
<ID:0/003> factoryfs.rfs
etc.....
I'm on my way back to something I can work with, so I'll mash on it from there.
Even though I was scared, I was never reeeeally scared.
As soon as I did it, I googled and saw people getting themselves out of jams left and right so I knew there was hope.
On my way to donate to Odin devs.

*Edit
Just thinking about it all again, I still have no idea where things went off the track.
I'm going to duplicate every step as it is all still fresh on my mind and see if the results are the same.

I was flashing using CWM, and it went fine.
Afterwards, I attempted to use the ROM manager to reboot into Recovery to do the tweaks....and that's when things went south.
I'm pretty sure ROM Manager was trying to boot into the Captivate CWM Recovery when what you want to do is enter this kernel's recovery. I use Terminal Emulator and simply type "reboot recovery" (no quotes) so I don't have to hold buttons or mess with adb, or worry about app behavior.

i never use rom mgr to reboot to recovery. just hold the power button down & choose "recovery", its faster & easier

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.

>>> CLICK HERE to DOWNLOAD the kernels.11Updated test: K12Q-T7:
This version is unbelievably smooth!
Android Logger (logcat) disabled by default.
Kernel debug messages have been disabled.
Fixed the super loud notifications with Voodoo Sound.
Changes from K12P:
- Disabled Android Logger (can be re-enabled via Tweaks)
- Disabled all kernel debug messages (printk) for efficiency
- Changed boot logo to I897 logo for AT&T Captivate version
- Changed /cache to ext4nj in recommended ext4 lagfix to fix large Market downloads
- Optional IPv6 Privacy support in Tweaks
- Voodoo Sound v2 compatible
- Fixed loud notification problem with headphones
- Fixed popping / clicking noise when music and FM radio is stopped / started
- Better FM Radio sound:
- - Really removed the high pass filter and DRC from FM Radio (restores full bass)
- - Turn on 4FS mode for ADC in FM Radio (smoother high frequencies)
- - Turn on 128x oversampling for ADC and DAC in FM Radio mode
- Adjusted volume of FM Radio and Media Playback to be similar
- General sound quality improvements:
- - Maximized digital mixer output to improve SNR and resolution
- - 128x oversampling option in Voodoo Sound enabled by default
- - Explicitly disable DRC and NG during media playback, if +1.5dB mode is NOT selected
For the AT&T Captivate version, ignore changes for FM Radio.5Test version K12S-T3:
- Added 3-pole headset calling support: voice calls go via normal stereo headphones if attached, otherwise they go via the earpiece
- Fixed mic problem, now the mic works
- Voodoo app headphone amplifier control also controls headphone output level for headphone voice calls
- Voodoo Sound v3
Credit goes to xcaliburinhand for some of the source code changes.
Unfortunately xcaliburinhand's patch didn't work out of the box - the mic didn't work. I had to modify the driver further to get the mic to work.
*** Note: The voice call sound doesn't automatically switch between the earpiece and headphones if you plug-in or unplug the headphones while the call is in-progress. You have to toggle the speaker mode to make it switch.5SpeedMod + Voodoo Sound test version!
K12L-T5:
Changes from K12K:
- FM Radio sound quality improvement: removed 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!
