Root voodoo5 kernels are here

So a couple of days ago in my boredom/flash-happiness I installed Blackhole without disabling Voodoo. I wanted to kick myself as soon as I did it, but it ended up booting up fine and I haven't had a problem. Can you just flash ROMs over this new Voodoo?

Sure is I cannot tell you how many times I've disabled and the re-enabled vooodoo is the past two week [7-9 times maybe]. Each time has been flawless.
What a difference it makes having less stuff on the internal. Voodoo used to take 8-10minutes to convert with 500+mb of data with less than 200 its like 2-3 minutes, nice.

Oh man I have this thought in my head now but since this is a family friendly site I will have to save my thank goodness its made of gorilla glass comment for another time :o
 
We"ll the good as not so bad news is that I was able to run OTB_sv_1300 and no freezes, but didn't really use it more than ten minutes. The not so good news is that my experience was that is was slower than the sv 1250. Dunno if its the kernel or my SF.
Don't really care either. Was going to keep the sv1250 on but I guess the old OC computer days tells me to take it easy and don't go burning out the CPU prematurely. So I am running the sv 1200 and it is smooth as silk and extremely fast with no hiccups at all. Very happy camper here. Now can we please bring on the froyo leak for goodness sakes. :rolleyes:

yeah sometimes faster kernels just run slower....every phone is different and sometimes it just works out that way...see if you can run lv 1200 though...battery is obviously better ;)
 
I have tried the lv 1100 and 1200. They run fine but in about a half hour the phone starts to slow down. I have had great batt life with the sv's and this thing just seems to like the lil bit of extra juice.
