[Q] Failing to install lagfix, need help - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I downloaded RyanZA’s one click lag fix for the Galaxy S but it won't work because apparently I already have a lagfix installed.
Considering that I have the lag on my phone of a windows 98 PC with 128mb of RAM trying to run Crysis on full settings, I am at a loss of what to do.
Thanks in advance.

[APP] One Click Lag Fix APK

Hello,
I take no credit for this at all. I saw it on the I900 post. and it works on vibrant. It gets rid of the sleep->awake lag.
NOTE: YOU MUST DO THE UNLAGFIX. DO NOT RUN THIS IF YOU HAVE NOT!

I helped RyanZA test this when he was still developing it. This is the 1.0 version of the lagfix, not the newer version, but it's great for people who aren't comfortable installing 2-3 or one of the update.zip versions
coolbeans, so I should be set on installing this apk because I've never tried applying any form of lagfix before, right?
This works great on the captivate. All un-lagfix is is simply removing the lag fix.
Great to hear I'll try this or when I'm back from school or.. I'll download it from school woo

OCLF
Ok so after hours on end of deciding what to do about the lag issues I decided to go with the OCLF 1.0. Man did I make a good choice. I was barely at 900. I am now hitting 2100+. My firmware is stock version 2.1-update1. The baseband is I897UCJF6. My phone has lightning speed now it is truly amazing. For anyone debating on whether or not to do it I say go for it.
pardon my ignorance...but this one focuses on the sleep to wake lag?
This would be fantastic, it annoys me to no end that when I hit the power button I have to wait for it to respond...
is this required to root my phone?
Im sorry i'm a noob.
or need micro sd?
If I run this, will it erase any of my personal stuff?

unlag fix?
what is the link to the unlag fix so i can do this
Works great. Asphalt loads so quick now.
I ran this last evening, and at first boot there was a massive delay of the boot screen running, it stayed on the "AT&T World Phone" screen while all of the boot audio ran. Then the screen switched to the "3G" and "Galaxy S" screens. Rebooted a second time and it's back to normal. I ran Quadrant and found went from a 885 before to a 2160 after. The I/O is running thru 3X faster than it did before the lag fix, the 2D and 3D FPS didn't seem to have changed at all. In normal use, I do see the Music player opens noticeably faster.
Nice work, VERY simple to use.
Thanks for the hard work on this one
Seems to be stuck in between lag fix and undo lag fix
Hi,
I have a captivate that I bought from Rogers.
I rooted the phone, then I applied the lag fix using OCLF lag fix.
I decided to undo the lag fix in preparation of the rogers froyo release...
It seems that the undo succeeded (no obvious errors anyways)
When I went back to the OCFL app, the oneclicklagfix v2.2+ and v1+ are unavailble in red, when I "You already appear to have another lag fix installed! (/system/bin/playlogos1 less than 5KB)"
I did a restore boot animation to restore the playlogos1 file... but nothing changed.
the undo lag fixes (2.2+ and 1) are also unavailable
I tried Uninstalling ext2 tools (option available) I got this error:
Remove EXT2 Tools failed with error:Couldn't remove library libext2_blkid.so:rm:can't remove'/system/lib/libext2_blkd.so':Read -only file system.
I've checked the internal phone storage available space: 1.69 GB.
Can someone please help? Did the lag fix undo work? is it safe to upgrade to froyo with this issue (once it is release from Rogers that is)
Thanks
My girl has that on her Vibrant and she is always saying your phone is faster and better then mine.I'm running voodoo on P8

Looks like it removed parts, but not all. I'd be hesitant to do the upgrade. Back up your apps, and use Odin(the full odin, not the AT&T one click) to flash the stock firmware. It'll wipe any remnants of the lagfix off.
i897 OCLF install help ..pls
So I downloaded oclf.2.3.0.apk. Installed EXT2 Tools, however, I get an error msg when I try to run either the OneClickLagfix V2.2+ or OneClickLagFix V1+ (which one should I be using anyway?).
"You do no have a /system/bin/playlogos1//system/bin/ playlogo file!"
I try to run Restore Boot Animation and get:
"Restore Boot Animation failed with erro: ....No such file or directory"
Please help or point me in the right direction. Thx!
BTW I'm on Froyo Cognition V2.4.1
I installed OCLF, installed EXT2 Tools, then look at my screen1st pic)OCLF2.2 is unavailable! After I click on it, i get the "no space in data folder" error(pic 2). The 3rd pic shows the space available. So what do I do? I need that fix badly!

[Q] I9000M and Voodoo or OCLF lag fix

I was reading forums about lag fix.
I wanna install one but it seems like possibility of bricking phone after installing lag fix is higher in I9000M (Bell model) than any other galaxy s models.
Is there reason for it? Can anyone share their experiences?
Also, I read somewhere that JH2 fixes the lag. Is that true?
I was doing benchmark but never got past 950 with quadrant....
I had no problem with OCLF until I did an upgrade of th app trought android market. Then OCLF didn't recognise that I had a lag fix install and I tried the option to repair the fix and it made my phone lag like hell. Then I tried to flash and repartition with odin to wipe this but I surelly made something wrong cause it bricked the phone. I had to buy another one used over kijiji.
Been using OCLF since then and I didn't had any other problem. I even uninstall it completly a few hours ago cause i want to try froyo. I think it's safe but don't try the repair option ever and try to install and uninstall the fix with the same version of the OCLF to avoid recognition problem.

Sorry i didnt really get how you bricked yours. So were you upgrading any app with lag fix? Do you mean you shouldnt upgrade any app after you installed lag fix? So to upgrade, i should uninstall any app completely then re-install new version?
Thats one downside....
I'm not sure how I bricked my phone but it's related to the re-partition option in odin and me flashing a froyo firmware. I did this with XXJPH and it was after the problem with OCLF.
What I'm sure of, is that OCLF (the app from the market) didn't recognise that my phone had a lagfix and didn't allow me to un-lag fix it. So I tried the option to repair the ext2 tools and it failed. After that the phone was really lagy and a lot of forced close happened. That why I wanted to repartition with an odin flash.
The probleme is that I tried with the only firmware (at the moment) that requires to never use this option. I should have tried to go back to UGJH2.
For OCLF i'm gonna try something. I have an update showing in the market so i'm going to install the lag fix whit my application and then I'll do the update to see if it can still see the lagfix. Maybe it was my fault in the first place. You'll have feedback in 5 min.
Ok I confirm that everything is working fine. See screenshot. I don't know what was the problem I had but it seems to work fine and there is no problem to recognise the lagfix once updated.
Hi, my SGS is now running Froyo, and all apps and settings are restored. I thought that I should reinstall OCLF 2 again to maybe get some more juice from the file system, and after installing from Market and rooting the device everything seemed fine. But during installation of the actual Lagfix, I noticed an error during the "dd" command (unable to mount device, device busy, or something like that). I was offered to send the log to the developers which I did. I tried to run it again, but get the same error message. But this time the device was hanging hard and nothing I did made the error screen go away. So I removed the battery and restarted the phone. Now when I enter the OCLF app, I can only select the "Unroot device". Both "One click lagfix" and "Undo one click lagfix" are red and not selectable.
If I look (with Linda filemanager) in the root filesystem, there are two zero length files, /dbdata and /data, both created at the time that I tried to apply the lagfix. Do I dare to remove these to and see if they are causing the deadlock?

Try removing your SD card, and then run the OCLF
If OCLF can't remove the lagfix you'll have to flash a firmware with Odin and repartition you'r internal sdcard at the same time. Just be carefull and chose a firmware that you can use to option to repartition with. Usualy all the 2.1 firmware are compatible with this option.
Then flash back with your desired froyo firmware and try CF root before you start OCLF. OCLF should not be use to root 2.2 device maybe your problem was caused by this but I doubt it.
I used OCLF with XXJPM without any problem but I flashed JPM over a clean 2.1 firmware (fresh flash with repartition option and no apps install).
Did not help. Do/Undo both still red.
I will first find a tool to backup all settings and apps before trying a re-flash. The question now is - is it worth to go through all this just to get OCLF up and running.

Definitely!! Try Titanium Backup. It can backup all your apps and data attached. Moreover it'll be able to re-install them without prompting you for every apps. You just start the backup before the flashing and start the restore after and let it go by itself. But be carefull to backup only user apps if you go from 2.1 to 2.2 or vice versa as it's gonna cause a lot of force close if you try to backup and restore system apps that are not right for your android version.
I'm running with OCLF and I can assure you that you won't regret. No more black screen before you launch an app. Installation and or uninstallation are almost instant so your update are done faster over the market.

I have 3 reasons in mind: File corruption, bad flash or low memory. chose the one you need.
GL.
Yeah. i thought so too...Low memory : When i check on it its usually more or less 70mb, when i clear the memory it gets to around 141 to 150 mb, then at times it gets to 40 mb. what is eating all this ram? I have uninstalled a lot of useless apps.
does the force close happens after u upgrade the firmware?
Well yeah..after I upgraded to 2.2 by using kies, all these things have started. I am thinking now to flash a custom ron

LagFix Doesn't work? Can't Flash

Ok, so I have a stock 2.2 FW and I have really bad lag, especially with text messages. So I installed the OCLF from the market, installed the exttools, rooted the phone and did the lagfix v2. It didn't fix the lag. I still had the same exact problems as before. So others suggested using a ext4 kernal. However, my phone can't get into recovery or download mode. I have a phone I find out that will eventually have the shutdown problem. So I decided I would just trade the phone in.
However..the OCLF that has an unroot option..doesn't work for 2.2. So can't do this till I unroot. I thought about using the ADB Tools, but without a 2nd way to get into recovery/download, I didn't want to risk this.
Is there a different market app that can unroot since ryzes doesn't work? Also..any reason why the lag fixes wouldn't work at all? I mean..i get a text message..entire phone freezes for a good minute..recieve 2 back to back..yeah stuck for a while. Also..since I uninstalled the lagfix and ext tools..however..now I can't download any apps with error of insufficient space...I have 9 gigs free.
Anyone else have these sort of problems?
Appreciate the help, thanks!
Uninstalling the "lagfix" does not convert the file system back to rfs it is still in ext2, which is really antiquated btw, that is why you are getting the insufficient space error.
I'm pretty sure Super one click will un root you, it isn't an app, its a pc based program so you would plug your phone in via usb and unroot.
So how do you covert back? I UN did lag fix undid root undid ext tools but still have space problem.
I will try super oneclick. Was hoping to do through phone so could exchange today. The lag is really awful and making phone not able to unstall apps or save pictures wasnt good fix anyway :/.Curious as to why lag fix didn't work though.

that "lagfix" is super old. ext2 as compared to ext4 which is the current filesystem for "lagfix", that And the stock rom is pretty crappy also. and only goes up to android 2.2.
So think they would replace phone that is rooted if its in the O'Neil range of power problems?

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S Plus Lagging Problem

Hi Everyone,
I have been using Samsung Galaxy S Plus for a few months now and have noticed that my phone lags after a few days of use. I have quite a few applications installed on my phone and figured that maybe this might be the cause of my problem. I have used apps like "FMR Memory", AutoKiller Memory, Speed Booster to kill running processes which might be causing the lag but without any great improvement. I have even installed CPU Master and set the min CPU speed as 768 MHz but that didn't rectify the issue either. I have used Android Assistant to keep unwanted apps on starting at boot as well but without much benefit.
My phone is rooted, and im using the stock rom, namely XXKPE (Kernel version 2.6.35.7-perf [email protected]#1), firmware version 2.3.4.
The best solution i have seen so far is to reboot the phone. But this is just a temporary solution because after a day or two the phone starts lagging again. I almost always have a problem when i make a lot of calls on my phone.
Any help or tips which might help me resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Saf
Try to install latest XXKQE. Should help.
Also clear cache, but I don't know if that option is present in stock Android recovery.
Hi przemcio510,
Thanks for the reply. I have used 1click cache cleaner as well but didn't notice much difference.
I will check out the ROM you mentioned but i would really prefer not to flash my device.
I want to know the reason which causes my phones to lag and how to identify and stop it.
Saf
You may having lots of apps on ur phone. To solve this without flashing, buy a external sd and transfer the apps from internel to external. Check out App 2 sd after getting the external sd. Other way is to flash a kernel. Flashing a kernel will increase performance by overclock thus you will experience zero lag. After flashing a kernel you will be able to overclock. Increase the MAX VALUE, not the MIN VALUE. You can't overclock a stock kernel.
