Root voodoo5 kernels are here

The voice is nice in one regard cause you know things are working but it really freaked my coworker out. :D

haha yeah it freaked my boss out when she first heard it...i told her it was just my boot animation and i forgot to silence it..shes cool though about it as i rooted her eris in the office and cleaned it up

Sweet...thx nitsuj17....

One more question: the search button brings up bing since I flashed the stockdeodexed DJ05. I thought that de-bing was included with this deodexed rom ?
I am using ADW and DolphinHD browser, but no go when I use the search button.

yeah i dont think jt added enhanced google search back in yet

Kaessa can you confirm clockwork is now also peachy keen.
Also did you use test1 as you converting over zip or did you upgrade from a previous voodoo5?
Getting questions I dont have answers to so directing peeps here

I installed from cwm recovery, not upgrading from a previous voodoo5 (I wanted to make sure it was mostly working before I installed it). Clockwork seems to be working. I can't say for sure all features are working, though.

still on D101. can i install adrynaline's test voodoo 5 kernal or do i need to be on dj05?

afaik you can use DI01 kernels on DJ05 and vice versa but remember you wont get ideal performance and no haptic feedback.

and really with voodoo i wouldnt do anything other than whats recommended as it can be a real pita in a bad situation.

and personally with DJ05 if you are rooted theres no reason not to be running it now as that last "hurdle" was bypassed a few nights ago :)

the real question is why is anyone NOT on DJ05 now? :)
touche;), and nitsuj17 just to clarify re:cwr & voodoo5 is it fully functional or just usable for flashing. I thought backup and restore were still no go. Although admittedly, I logged out of IRC last night for the first time in like a week and havent been in in like 10 hours which is an eternity :p

thanks nitsuj17.
one more question. i disabled voodoo and currently running geeknik's non voodoo stupidfast 1.2.3
do i need to enable voodoo before flashing voodoo 5?

no, voodoo can always be flashed over a nonvoodoo kernel...just not vice-versa.

however if u never deleted the disable_lagfix file in ur voodoo folder ull have to do that

if i don't install voodoo 5 then can i flash geeknik's latest and maybe last kernal 1.5.4 on RM after i flash jt's SC v.5?

yes you can...just remember jts roms have kernels built in so flash the rom first, then the other kernel...unless u rip the kernel out of his update.zip

I need voodoo5 to run dj05? It won't run on a stock kernell?

you dont need voodoo5 to run anything...i was just saying DJ05 is easier to deal with than voodoo5
