Question for everyone - Fascinate General

Does anyone else have like backround noise during calls on their fascinate? I didnt used to have it, I think it is from either the new voodoo kernel or the new rom i put on from jt. Not sure. Anyone else?

This does not belong in the the development forum.
Its noise caused from the backlights turning on during a call.

oh sorry, well now that you answered me. How do i make it stop doing that?

Take off backlight notifications.

I put the phone back to stock (removed voodoo kernel and took off JT rom) and the noise stopped

Can we just use the disable bln in Rom Manager? If I am not using a bln kernel than it should not matter right?

If you are getting BLN, you have a BLN kernel or installed a BLN mod. Using "Disable BLN" should fix it regardless.

Interesting that BLN causes background noise. I have background noise w/o BLN. There has to be a fix from Samsung.

I ran the uninstall bln from Rom Manager with no issues. I have not had a chance to test it though.

DJ05 kernels with BLN?

Are there any kernels that are compatible with dj05 that still have the bln notifications? I have the app to enable or disabe them, but evey kernel I have tried it said bln not available when I tried to turn it on in the app. I really can't live without them at work so I'm trying to figure this out by Monday. Currently running jt's 11/16 non voodoo uv and retrokids dj05 theme with stock ROM.

11/16 is DI01... Voodoo test 1123 1124 and 1127 were DJ05 kernels that had BLN, as I think was the non-Voodoo kernel packaged with Clean 0.5.
Sent from my Voodoo-powered Fascinate via XDA
The 11/16 I have is one of the ones from Rom manager that goes with Super Clean - I'm hoping to find a non voodoo one I had a bad experience with that once.

Ok this is driving me nuts!!!!! I have tried just about every kernel on Rom Manager and when I go to the BLN app it says BLN notification not available on this kernel! I really need this - I'm even willing to try Voodoo again if I can get my BLN back!
Stupid Fast 1.5.4 has BLN. The BLN control app may say the device isn't supported, but it works perfectly anyways.

I think I finally figured out - turns out there are something like 4 different versions of that BLN control app and you have to use different ones with different kernels. Now I lost my vibration but that's ok as long as I have my BLN!

No vibrate at all on fascinate

I am using jt's SuperClean Rom v 0.4 and geeknik's stupidfast v1.23 kernel all on DI01. I have no vibrate functionality at all on my phone. I tired enabling and disabling and reboot and that did not work. Any other suggestions for a simple fix?

Maybe you accidentally flashed a dj05 kernel? Try flashing a non stupid fast.

My vibrate stopped working, tried everything, called tech support and they decided the vibrate motor was dead. Two days later I had a like new, used but refurbed fascinate and all is well.

[Issue][5/16] Sound popping/crackling with small fix

Since recent updates I've been getting popping in audio. This ONLY occurs when I touch the screen. For example when I have a song on and I swype I can hear popping as I move my finger across the screen. Is anyone else having this issue? Using voodoo control plus with version 8 driver.
EDIT: Emailed supercurio. He is working on a fix and I am testing it for him. The only tweak he said he found so far to improve this is using the command "echo 0 > /sys/module/printk/parameters/time" in adb shell. He said it should improve noise popping and he was exactly right. The popping is still noticeable but has much improved! He said he will consider integrating it in a future version.
EDIT (5/16): To be clear, Supercurio says this is a flaw in the Froyo kernel whether stock or not. I recently odined back to DL09 to do OTA to EB03 and still have some issues. Being on complete stock, the issue is not nearly as bad and doesn't occur when I interact with the screen. The issue of sound popping occurs about every 8-12 seconds when playing back audio of any kind. Here is one of his exact messages in our email conversation.
"François SIMOND - supercurio to me

Hi Zachary!
This is an issue with the [Froyo]* kernel itself, which is poorly implemented.
Gingerbread kernels are not affected anymore. Is it really bad in ED01 ?"

What rom/kernel?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Community Rom and the included rom by nemesis2all. I just reverted from jt's alpha gingerbread and it happened on that too. Dont think it's a ROM issue but rather a voodoo sound driver issue. Just seeing if it's just me or if others are also noticing.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Yeah I'd revert back to the previous kernel with voodoo 7.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I too am having the same problem and it's driving me nuts! It's not only when you touch the screen, but whenever the processor load ramps up, so it's pretty much whenever the phone does any thinking. Very annoying.
Doesn't happen for me (imnuts -50). But I'm using MortPlayer, not the stock Samsung.
If you're on the nemesis kernel, try changing some of the enabled clockspeeds?
Doesnt help. This also happened when I was on CM7 when I wasnt on nemesis2all's kernel. I realized this didnt happen until voodoo driver version 8. I emailed project voodoo to see what they have to say.

Have you checked the scheduler you are using? It almost sounds like the phone is decreasing the priority devoted to decoding the mp3 too much or it is giving too much cpu to the ui. Drivers

I've noticed popping only since I flashed Jt's CM7 rom. I'm not currently on the rom, but the problem still exists. I'm thinking there's something in that rom that has messed up my phone's audio (hopefully not permanently).
Im having this strange pops too. I have a SGS i9000 and am using the Voodoo control plus app. Theyre very noticeable when i put on my headphones, horrible really. Id like some help or feedback on this. I wont mess with internal stuff since the app supposedly loads on top and doesnt change anything per se.
Try switching to the CFQ scheduler in Voltage Control app, if the problems did improved and rarely show up then switch to BFQ.
BFQ is the best for latency dependent data transports. I'm using the latest voodoo sound without any crackles or pops.
sound pooping; ehrrr... "popping"

an interesting theory - I've now got the popping-when-touching-the-screen issue too. although i'm currently running imnuts 100 kernel; the voodoo 8 (plus) app; and stock ED01 debloated - I did tryout the cm7 roms recently also.
I expect that's just coincidence - many of us here play with various roms and such...
also - the popping issue happens with all the sound apps I've tried (tw music player; pandora; npr; tunein radio, etc).

I believe JT1134 and imnuts used the same SIO default scheduler, you should verify with imnuts.
Changing schedulers doesn't work. I emailed supercurio and its just an issue with froyo kernels and his driver so it wont be fixed until the new version of voodoo sound most likely.

I don't know if you have this issue or not, but I didn't spend time writing this thread for nothing. I've done troubleshooting and have followed steps to fix it and even emailed the man who created the drivers. He mentioned nothing about schedulers just said that the Froyo kernels are poorly implemented and he will have to find a work around for it. He also mentioned there is no permanent fix for it, only what is in the OP. I can sit here playing with schedulers all day (as I have done), but nothing will change.
i also experienced this after flashing jt's cm7 so im pretty sure it has to do with the voodoo sound driver in the newer kernels as stated above. even after odin back to stock didnt fix the problem. hoping next voodoo update fixes this issue
*edit
problem fixed after going back to stock then installing official froyo

Hi,
I flashed this ROM, and then the "Samurai Kernel 1.3". In general, things are working very well. I however did notice that when making telephone calls while I'm using headphones, only the right channel has audio. The left does not. I don't have a chance to reflash to see if the "Samurai Kernel" is at fault yet..... I remember seeing (or maybe hearing???) this bug a long time ago on CM7 with an older version of Voodoo Sound, but this kernel doesn't have Voodoo sound.... I'm wondering if any other people have seen this issue, or if anyone can tell me that it is the Samurai Kernel 1.3 that is at fault.

Well the "issue" is how headsets are designed. You have your "normal" headsets used for listening to music and have two bands and your hands-free headsets w/mic which have three bands, but the issue that arises are the single ear pieces w/mic which have two bands like "normal" headsets. Since the "normal" headset jack and the single ear piece w/mic jack are designed identically (as far as I can tell) there's no way for the phone to differentiate between them so your phone sees your "normal" headset as a single ear piece w/mic while in a call. Thus audio only out one ear piece while your phone thinks the other is the mic. Course I'm no expert on the matter. This is just a conclusion I've come up with based of what I've seen/read (which honestly isn't much) so I could be way off.

Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Well we don't have a notification light. There is a thing called BLN but the kernel must support it. I don't know of any ICS kernel that supports it currently. Not sure about speedmod and franco's.

It works on some Gingerbread kernels. But, from what I know, when you add BLN support (which is what you talking about), you lose performance or other tweaks you can make. So a lot of devs just don't want to bother with it. That, and it can be a huge battery drain.

It holds a wakelock when notifications are active, and also frequently misbehaves. On I777 it would often cause the touchkey backlights to fully disable until you toggled the screen off/on.
One developer attempted BLN without wakelocks, but later testing showed that in that case, standby drain went way up even when notifications were not active.
A simpler summary is - no developer on the Note likes the feature enough to bother with it so far, especially given how easy it is for it to cause problems.
