I just reverted back to DJ05 to test voodoo sound, color, and lagfix and I must say it's amazing. I hadn't really messed with voodoo until superclean 2.9 EB01 and it was ok but nowhere near as fast as DJ05 with voodoo. With EB01 I wasn't experiencing that snappiness that everyone is talking about but now I know. The headphone amplifier in the voodoo lagfix is AMAZING and lets me use my Klipsch Image S4's to their fullest. I don't think I'm going back to FroYo until the source code is released and awesome custom kernels like the one I'm on now get developed. Sorry if this is a pointless thread I'm just super excited and amazed.
For those interested in trying it out there are links below. Be sure to wipe data/cache and dalvik cache. If this is your first time using voodoo do not use this post as a reference. I do not want to dedicate this thread as a voodoo how-to because I have only been on voodoo for a week and I am inexperienced. Search threads to find a voodoo how-to thread and come back once you figure it out (it's easy). This is for those on froyo who have not yet experienced true voodoo custom kernels or simply just want to return but can't find good links.
Good things I've noticed.
-Snappier.
-Instant GPS lock!!!!(Just realized this). I know it didn't work on DJ05 before.
-Higher Quadrant scores.
-Market is smoother, apps download and install way faster.
-Good battery life. going on 12 hours now and still at 63% (Would be in the 40's on EB01). This is with the screen on full brightness!! On EB01 I had the brightness always at the lowest setting.
-Messaging is less buggy. Messages I send are received every time.
-SD scan is faster.
-Boot is faster.
-Sound amplifier/driver is amazing!
-AMOLED screen looks better overall.
-Better signal/speed.
Bad things I've noticed.
-Swype is being a pain. Said my trial expired. Other methods of reinstalling it I've used before aren't working. Swype beta says trial expired also when I try to install. To fix this see below.
HOW TO FIX SWYPE:
1. Download a swype.apk WVGA resolution from the interwebs. (Can't post it here)
2. Change your default keyboard to any keyboard other than Swype.
3. Using root explorer, go to system/app/ and delete Swype.apk
4. Go to system/lib and open the search method in the menu and type in Swype. This will search for any files containing the word Swype. There should be two of them one of which is swypelibcore.so and I forgot the other. If you don't see either of these then you are fine to continue to the next step.
5. Install the swype.apk you downloaded earlier and let it do its thing. If it says your device isn't supported you downloaded the wrong swype. It needs to be WVGA because that is the resolution of our device.
6. If you get force close after installing, restart your phone.
-Lower MFLOPS benchmarked with Linpack.
-Cant use FPSe(New Playstaton emulator on market), it's for 2.2+ =(.
Please, please only try this if you are comfortable with flashing. I am not responsible for those who mess up their device by lack of research on the topic.
