Thanks for the Kernel Imnuts, used your kernels back in the fascinate days and loved them!:victory:

So I flashed this kernel, found the following.

Using Beans ROM, getting Black screen of death periodically, maybe 2 times a day doing simple stuff like e-mail.

Primarly I want Voodoo Sound/Boeffla sound. Basically boeffla sound is broken, the EQ does not function, nor the special sound tuning stuff like Bass tuning and Oversaturation fixing.

I will send you my firstborn if you can fix Boeffla so it sounds like the old Voodoo sound. I think basically you just need to fix the EQ and Bass tuning with oversaturation fixing. After that I will be paypaling monies.

THANK YOU!!


PS. best battery life ever ever ever

Unlike Voodoo Sound, Boeffla sound does not keep Digital Sound at max volume, it only kicks the extra headphone amp in after Digital is raised to max.. This sucks and removes the greatest benefit of Voodoo for some reason :(

You can use Boeffla sound to directly control the headphone amp and so I am doing that, keeping media volume maxed.. sounds GLORIOUS and pretty much dead on with my old Fascinate w/Voodoo sound 10

I wish there was some compromise :/

Here is a custom kernel based on the latest GT-N7100 sources for the Note 2. I've taken a lot of stuff out, so if you like playing around with changing 500 things on the kernel before you start using your phone, look somewhere else. It pulls in Beoffla Sound and Simple IO Scheduler and removes as much debugging stuff as possible, non-default CPU and IO schedulers, and Ext2 Support (Ext4 handles Ext2/3). I've also gotten rid of recovery over-write on boot and enabled adb root by default.

There is no overclocking support, overclocking is useless unless you're pumping up your e-peen. There is no undervolting support as it hasn't been shown to do anything useful on multi-core systems from everything I've seen. There is no init.d support as 90% of the init.d scripts are useless. It will continue using stock boot animations as well, though I'm sure it wouldn't be to difficult to make stock android boot animations work. That may even be possible without any kernel changes anyway.

The only issue I've run into is that exFAT SDcards may not work with it. I've been trying to figure out why, but it is slow going when I don't have an exFAT card to test with. If anyone would like to help fix it, flash and get me full dmesg and logcats. If you don't know how to get those, but still want to help, see my SDK Guide for a general overview of what to do.

This kernel is built for TouchWiz ROMs, and should work on any available VZW ROM currently available. It works for VRALJB, VRALL4, and VRAMC3 from my own testing, let me know if you have issues on a TW ROM and I may be able to fix it. For a download, see below. I also am not posting in original development because IMO, that entire forum is useless and confusing.
