Hey everyone,
Seems Supercurio has finally got a beta of his true fix for the lag on Samsung Galaxy S phones. The github is below.
DO NOT FLASH ON A VIBRANT until there is a Vibrant version. This is posted so developers can take a look at the source code and start implementing it for the Vibrant.
http://github.com/voodoo-project/lagfix
Hopefully JAC can integrate this fix into his OC\Stock kernels, and we can enjoy our phones without the typical "galaxy s" lag/stuttering.
HUGE thanks to supercurio for all his hard work putting this together
EDIT: lol, guess he hasnt posted the source yet. the ramdisk is available in the download section.
Enjoy! Happy coding!
This is great news, looking forward to it!

Nice! The other lagfixes didn't work too well for me.

It will take up ALL of the 2GB /data partition lol. Mostly kidding....sort of. Actually, it will change the file system of /data to EXT4 so you can use all 2GBs as originally intended, and without lag. Best permanent fix for "galaxy S" lag.....(I think the term "lag fix" is now dead btw, it has lost all meaning besides "less lag than stock")

I've yet to use one that improves the phones performance noticeably (ignoring all Quadrant results).
Really looking forward to this
Great cant wait to try this fix...... Also should I repartion my external sd card with a ext 4 for this or does this use the internal 16 gig and do it automatic...?

I don't believe anybody forgot about this, we are just patiently waiting for a final, safe version to be released. IIRC JAC was working on one but wanted to test it more. I'd rather have something take a while and be stable than have a phone that crashes or doesn't work right. Just be patient, it'll come.
I for one have not forgot about this at all, I was seriously waiting all day at work (slow day in the ITS dept. cause of the holiday) for it to come out. However I have overheard that they found some bugs, specifically dealing with flashing recovery back (correct me if I am wrong). This is the mod that I have really been anticipating, more so than almost any of then. But it will come out when it does. Next week I am going to buy some rum for eugene and jac for all their great work. But replacing rfs with ext is a huge step in the right direction and I am very excited to see the results and cannot wait to try it! It is the weekend though and they all have lives for this holiday, my phone is already rocking enough socks, I can wait a bit for a stable mod, and prefer to at that. I believe this mod will be one of the more significant that has been created so far instead of the virtual ext or external ext (currently running ext4 to my class 6 with jac's), not having to jury rig this stuff together anymore will be nice. Props to jac and eugene! (and anomalous3 too, don't know where I would be if I couldn't push apks from your deodexed rom)

And, it gets better. He seems to have found a way to correct the color by adjusting the overall color temp of the phone!!
I believe this will be implemented as well and hopefully ported over to the Vibrant. My two biggest gripes with this phone will be fixed in one fell swoop.
so i just flashed cognition 3.04, and i love it. so much smoother and faster. i was tired of waiting for the officail 2.2 froyo release. the only thing that i dont understand is that it says that the unlock screen should be the stock glass pane swipe thing. but its not. its just the standard froyo unlock screen. not a big deal just wondering about it. so i guess thats my question.
More people requested stock lockscreen over the glass one. It's really upto DG to change whatever he wants in his rom. I guess he likes to satisfy all his followers
yeah i am not upset with the lockscreen. just wondering if i missed something. its a really nice rom. now i am wondering what else should i add to the phone. i want to keep this rom but maybe overclock it next.

lol i did read everything in the change log. even researching the things i didnt understand, which was quite a few. ha. but your right. i mistook that for meaning the STOCK captivate lockscreen. and also the two large screenshots threw me off, since the picture posted by designgears of the rom layout clearly shows the lock screen being the glass style one. but if thats the only mistake i made then so be it. what overclocked kernal do you guys recommend with the cognition rom.

No worries man, just thought I would make sure you knew it was in the change log. I personally am not using a OC/UV kernel because every time I have it has killed my battery. I just left Serendipity for that reason. I have run both Hardcore and Glitterballs kernels and I just never had good luck like others have had.
yeah i probably will leave it alone for now. but i feel i want to do more. any suggestions for other stuff i can add/do to the phone now.

That is the beauty of these phones; I was running Serendipity and just yesterday alone I had to charge twice because it killed my battery. I was running extremely mild settings so I would try and help my battery and it still died. That is why I went away from it, but my phone has been that way with all OC/UV kernels. On the other hand with Cognition I flashed yesterday at 85% battery (yes everyone says flash from 100% and I don't care lol) and after 14 hours I am at 70% battery with normal use for me. If I were on Seredipity or any other OC/UV kernel my phone just sleeping would die. It sucks how much of a difference these phones have between each other.
15% drop in 14 hours.....normal use... :/

If you dont cut out the rest of my sentence it says at the end "for me". So simply changing the rom immediately made my battery better because i had serious issues on serendipity. Please dont take a part of what i said and try to twist it around.

I only speak for myself and my stats. I was using that point based on what i have had happen. I have used my phone more today than the previous couple because the battery lasted. On serendipity which is a good rom overall i would lose atleast 35% during the day with airplane mode on. Working in a clinic att does not work in my area so i keep it on to help savebattery. Too bad my phone hates oc/uv kernels.
This is my captivate. There are many like it buy this one is mine.
well i havent charged the battery since i flashed it and its still at 42 percent. and i have been messing with it alot. so apparently my phone loves cognition. ha. but i was wondering if its possible to put the touchwiz app drawer back in. i liked it better since you can move the apps where you want.
Which Kernel do you prefer for your I9000?!?

this is a quiz?
So don't be lazy & look in their threads

Ubuntu

i prefere SPEEDMOD KERNEL coz battery life is very good .VOODO KERNEL hve used it for long time battery draines very quick
Will be an interesting discussion, please proceed.
But hardcore will win this poll though, he puts out a lot more updates then SC.
I don't think voodoo does a great job, yet I never used speedmod... I use setirons cause of the high overclock.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
I used Speedmod but without lagfix.. using lagfix with Speedmod, I experienced a lot of problem. EVERYTIME I disable lagfix it will always stuck. I'm using it coz of less battery drain.
But if I want to use lagfix i'll go to Voodoo. much more stable using lagfix.
I prefer the flames about gnome vs KDE, are much more funny.
really, in development??
speedmod +1
Why not Voodoo? because speedmod works for me... too lazy to move to Voodoo...
That's well said mate, we need try them & judge later
The devs were more than generous with us

There is competition either way, whether or not we have this thread.
This thread might actually make them work even better. Dont see no problem in that.
From playing with both mods... they run at almost the same speed... voodoo might be a little bit faster...
Speedmod does have more configs tho... so i refuse to vote for just one.... i vote both! lol

We know very well both developers are working hard to improve their kernels. Hence, there is no need to have such a thread at all.
It is precisely everyone tastes are different, and more often than not, people will try to enforce their opinions on others, resulting in a hostile environment. It will degenerate into something that might even pisses the devs off, so to speak.
The best way of course is to try out what is being offered here, does it meet your own expectation or not.
Once you are happy with whatever you have, then stick with it, until perhaps something better comes along the way.
Don't you agree?

YES indeed I do....
I don't see how asking people's opinion on two products would cause a problem.
As far as pissing someone off, I think that when someone creates something that is made public, they should accept all comments on that product, good or bad. If they do not want to hear anything bad about their product, don't make it public.
Besides, constructive criticism is good for competition.

It would be sweet if the fix gets the battery performance to be as good as that of Stock 1.2!
Waiting eagerly for the release. Using Froyo 0.6.8 R7 in the meantime.
is it just me or CM7 in general goes through a battery noticeably faster? I guess I can try doing a simple comparison using the browser or something.

Between the overclocked kernel and the fact that it doesn't go into a deep sleep, yes, CM7 currently consumes battery very quickly relative to stock. It sounds like the new kernel will address the latter, but you're always going to pay some cost for higher performance with an overclocked kernel while you're actually using the NOOK.

I'm running the latest nightly, and I highly recommend everyone at least flash up to n63. In there Dal was able to get the speaker to shutup when it's sleeping (you'll still hear the buzz when the screen is on, but when off...nice and quiet )
That, plus the 1.3GHz kernel, I'm getting MUCH better battery, and it seems snappier (and has since the base changed to 2.3.4).

Sweet, I prefer to stay as stable as possible but with these updates I'm pretty much sold on at least updating to your specified version. Unfortunately I'm away from home at the moment and this Net connection is slow. I prefer making an Image Backup before I update anyway, just incase. That way I can always Flash back if anything screwy goes on.

Glad to know I'm not the only one to see an improvement on 63, but... I have not been able to replicate it since. I had better than 0.25%/hour right after flashing but have been close to 1% in the day since. Oh well. Someday...

I have nightly 70 running now and the sleep issue can be put to bed. CM7 is now all it should be. I guess I will wait a bit longer for kinks (although everything seems fine for me) to be worked out and I can finally flash to eMMC and ditch the stock rooted ROM.

I need a little help. My I897 is running on MPD 2.0 ROM, w/ EyeCandy v 3.15 and Corn Kernel 7.06, and it is stuck bootlooping at the swirling optical illusion at start-up. I don't know why, all I was doing was playing a couple of games and it was really lagging, and freezing up and it has been a lot lately. I even posted about it yesterday or the day before? Whatever?
So tonight, it just froze while playing a game and it was totally unresponsive so I let it sit. After about 10 minutes, I noticed it was on the optical illusion and stuck with the illusion spinning away. I pulled the battery, restart the phone same thing. Goes through the first start up screens and gets to the swirl thing and goes no further.
I pulled the battery again and replaced it, went into recovery and hit the reboot device and started it up. Same thing.
Should I reflash the Rom? If I do, I have to do a full wipe and that will suck.
Has anyone had this problem on MPD 2.0?
Maybe someone has an answer.
Thanks, whoever tries to help me with this.

I'm not so sure what MPD is but Corn kernel is on GB. Therefor, there's no developping nor support being made for it, which could explain why you got no answer on your previous post.
Luckily, you can get in recovery. Make a backup, wipe cache/dalvik and try to boot up. If that doesn't work, back in recovery, wipe cache/dalvik, factory reset and reflash your ROM. Altough, I would suggest looking at the newer ROMs out there as we're up to JB 4.2.1 (you're on GB 2.3.5).
If you go ahead with the upgrade, make sure you follow the full instructions in the OP.
Thanks, I already reflshed and its running. I know that there are newer Roms I only flashed it because I hadn't yet flashed anything from the Collective and the eyecandy theme I wanted to check out also.
But after running great for a couple weeks, it started getting buggy. Now I'm gonna do something else. My SII is running darkside Evolution #5 4.03 by thederekjay w/venom kernel, and I wanted an older Rom in my Cap, for contrast.
I'm not sure what I'll do next. I just needed it running. It is my business line for my electrical contracting company. And it will start ringing in about a ½ hour.
Thanks, for your response and have a great day.

Wait, the collective? The Collective and The Family used to be one team.. Yet I dunno what you mean by MPD?
And if you're looking into something stable, I would highly suggest either AOKP or AoCP (4.1.2).

Oh I see, was made while I was away. Thanks for the clarification 4-2ndtwin
What would you recommend for a stable build? I use my Cap as my business line. So it has to be reliable. Camera, GPS, texting, etc..., all have to function. But I also like to have the little extras. As you know I'm on the kk4 kernel, and I'm OK with flashing, not okay with having to run anything that needs me to use Linux or do any command lines that kinda thing. I still new to everything. Thanks

Sorry, but I forgot to mention that it running pretty normal now. I got rid of the eyecandy theme. It is the culprit from what I can tell. Without it the phone is better. Still a little laggy though.

If you look up, I already made 2 suggestions
AoCP or AOKP (4.1.2)

There are also tweaks in recovery that u can choose from and even the ability to change the partitions to Ext4. Check the kk4 corn kernel's op for info on these things.
I use my cappy for work and pretty much have stock kk4, with Root, debloated, Ext4 on all partitions and the tweaks i have are sio Scheduler and smartassv2 Governor. Runs great !

I have it running on deadline and smartass v2 and it runs pretty damn well, I dont know too much about partinoning so I have stayed clear just in case I screw something up.
What about the kernel tweaks (ROM toolbox pro) the voltage controlsyscti tweaks? What is that for, signalling the different MHz -0mV? I'm an electrician and have been for 20 years but electronics is a new hobby and the phones my new medium. I would love to know more, so if you could tell me what I should read or??? That would help me learn more I would be stoked.
Thanks KK

OC = Overclock
UV = Undervolt
SoD = Sleep of Death
I don't suggest changing voltage on the cappy (UV). The processor isn't strong/fast enough, therefor it takes more time to process what you ask of it = more screen time = more battery drain. While screen off though, your battery will be better (can also cause black screen and SoD at unstable state). Screen on is the main battery drain for androids. So basically, reducing your voltage (UV) will lower your battery consumption, of course at a price = slower processing and despite you intention to reduce battery drain, it might increase it. The Captivate has proved to be quite unstable with OC/UV on GB and up.
Up'in your Mhz (OC) will make your phone faster but at the cost of faster battery drain and faster hardware usage. On top of that, both can make your phone unstable. Finding the right combination can take some time if you really wanna get into it. There are guides about it which you can find with a little search, altough, once again, I don't recommend it.
Thanks Bwolf, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain some of that. I have read some some of that stuff in other posts, over the past year or more that I've been on XDA, although it was Greek to me at the time. Now I knowwhat you guys are saying, I just don't know the hows or whys. In time.
I will follow your advice on the voltage and the OC and leave it alone.
There was a time a while back when I first started messing around and I changed something it might have been voltage, and my Cap went nuts. It was sucking down my battery right before my eyes, so fast and getting hot, I pulled the battery and I don't remember how I got it straightened out, but I did. Crazy! So, I know better, curiosity killed the cat (cap) lOL. Thanks Again

Hehe np. As for what happened before, pulling the battery most likely reseted your kernel settings (OC in this case) as it probably wasn't ''set on boot''. Probably saved you a lot of hastle too
