[Q] Captivate lag fix help

i'm loving my new Captivate, and i'm glad i made the switch to android. but one thing i wasn't expecting is the lag issues. i see that xda has more than a few solutions for me. but like i said this is my first android phone and the transition has been a little rocky. can anyone walk me through the one of the 1 click lag fixes? i'm on a mac so i'm already starting at a disadvantage. is there anyway i can do this whole thing via terminal emulator right on my phone?
Thanks

First, If you have access to a windows computer, try flashing this rom. its fixed alot of issues for me. including the lag.

If not follow the thread below.
but for the busybox step sideload this one cuz you need busybox 1.17.1(I've uploaded it here for you-http://www.mediafire.com/?z89f7zt9kyxb7n3)[the one in the market causes issues because its missing some commands)
follow the rest of the steps in this thread. this has worked the best for a few people I know. -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747397

OneClickLagFix V2.2 Install Error
Not sure if this is the place for my question but any who here goes:
I applied the lag fix as directed to my captivate froyo 2.2 and got an error. "Hit an error, undoing lagfix! OneClickLagFix V2.2+ failed with erro: Could not mont loopback device/dev/loop5! mount: Device or resource busy
What suggestions as to what I should do to correct this and continue the installation with OneClickLagFix? Delay my last...I found the answer I was seeking. OneClickLagFix V2.2 working as adverstised. Last benchmark test before OCLF V2.2 was 948 and after OCLF 1830.
Nice!!

Hi guys i have a samsung captivate . I installed froyo on it. Build number FROYO.UCJI6
I notice that when i am in applications and i browsing through i get some lag and it sometimes sticks for a slight second.. How can i fix this? i am a noob at these stuff..

I used the juiced ROM and it's great. Battery life rules and the lagfix is great.

try moving all the apps back to the internal memory, those apps that u moved to sdcard must go back to phone memory before applying the oclf

Hi guys I am new in here, dont' know if here is the right place for this question... well here it goes...
I had updated my captivate with the official UCKF1 2.3.3 gingerbread... i want to install voodoo lagfix, but I dont know if it is possible for me to install it in my rom... I am rooted..
TIA

cant use voodoo lagfix on KF1 for now period. its all kernel related and once/if samsung/att releases the kernel source then and only then can ext4 be implemented

to be honest, if your a new captivate user you shouldn't be flashing gb roms, flash to stock using odin and flash 2.2 and 2.1 roms since they are the most stable ones yet...in my personal opinion if ur a noob and want to get rid of most of the lag in your phone flash serendipity 6.4...super easy flash through cwm and it's stunningly fast,crisp and stable as hell...

[MOD]Voodoo Lag-Fix for JK2 Based Froyo

1st of all.....this is not for Noobs, if u dont know what Voodoo is or even what root is, please click the back button.....
In advance, sorry for the anti-noob attitude LOL.....
The is the Latest Voodoo from the International Galaxy S that works w/ JK2 froyo on the Vibrant. I tested it myself. It works on any Froyo thats based on JK2 which is all of them so dont ask.. Its a file flashable ONLY in Odin. If you have Oclef's 1 click Lagfix already installed, u MUST disable it 1st.... If u try and flash ontop of having voodoo installed and soft brick your phone, its your own fault for not reasarching about voodoo 1st. Theres STRICT directions when dealing w/ voodoo. Theres a forum in here already made discussing Instructions on how to install and uninstall it so use the search tool. Do not ask for the link to the forum or the masses will flame u...
Again any soft bricking you do to your phone is YOUR own fault
Reading is fundemental
Otherwise, enjoy the sexiness of Voodoo for froyo JK2:

Thanks a bunch! does this include the sound and color fix as well? =]

I'm guessing just disable previous version of voodoo and install this over it?

yeah just have a disable lagfix file or folder in the sdcard/Voodoo/ directory and install this through ODIN, remove the disable lagfix file or folder and reboot.

hmm OP you should probably mention that volume buttons are reversed

i know you say all versions of jk2, but i'm running jk2 w/ 3e recovery. Will i need to change over from JK2 w/ 3e to JK2 w/ 2e recovery for this to work (as i've read recovery is somewhat tied to the kernel)?

Team Whiskey has released the stock JK2 kernel with Voodoo in their beta section. I'd imagine it will be publicly released sometime in the near future. The key mapping is not messed up since it uses the stock kernel. Patience young grasshoppers...

Hey OP, do you have a link to the original thread? i can't find it when i search...
EDIT: nm...found it. here it is for anyone else interested. https://docs.google.com/document/d/...HVMGpXheGc/edit?pli=1#heading=h.9bkg2u-i2ehea
FYI i read the whole page and it doesnt say anything about JK2. Also i says you have to back up your efs folder and i'm not sure how to restore that...so i would caution everyone to READ everything and be very sure they know what they are doing.

just wanted to check back in and say that i can confirm that this works on JK2. i installed it over Axura 2.0 and its working like a charm. i am by no means an advanced user, i just read and follow directions very well.
For those of you who care about numbers i got a 1533 quad score (sorry i didn't think to test Axura before voodoo so nothing to compare it to). i literally just flashed this thing so we'll see how it holds up in the future. so far though running very smoothly and responsiveness is great.
EDIT: also the volume buttons are reversed and home acts as back. not a huge deal for me.
EDIT2: also internal sd mounts as a CD drive, so you have to use the Media Player option to write to internal sd...which presents sort of a problem disabling it since the home key doesnt act as home. i just unplugged the usb to disable and it seemed fine though.
EDIT3: also this broke CWM for me. i got stuck in recovery and it just kept saying "finding update package" and just sat there. a battery pull didnt work since it just kept booting to recovery with that message. had to ODIN back to stock JK2. i wouldn't mess with this until its vibrant specific IMO.

you can extract the zImage from the CWM flashables, and then use heimdall to flash the kernel.
If you want and ODIN flash, you need to create a tar (not sure of the specifics, you could just copy the stock zImage into the voodoo odin tar and it'll replace the voodoo kernel w/ the stock kernel).

this is just the default i9000 froyo lagfix. the media volume does not make any sound with it, i have tried it before. along with all the other issues users have already posted. it is not suitable or meant for the Vibrant yet.

All it needs is to be ported for the Vibrant...everything else works fine. No colorfix tho

Anyone who has donated to team whiskey check out there forum. I have been running their froyo with ext4 voodoo for a couple of days with absolutely no problems. Not even in recovery. I'm sure it will be released soon assomeone else said earlier.

Team Whiskey's kernel is using Voodoo Beta 5, so yes it will work with the larger nand.

Dragon ROMs, direct to ext4 install, voodoo5

What is this? It's an experimental ROM install setup that avoids the use of RFS entirely. The install basically pre-voodoo's your phone. If you know you want voodoo, this is faster than installing then doing voodoo, but it's a little more complicated. Not much, but be warned. It avoids the use of RFS durring install completely, so no RFS corruption to worry about.
The ROM itself is mostly untouched. The kernel is my Dragon Kernel, i9k based, so it will eat your battery (froyo only, eclair is better as we have source). I can get about 12 hours out of it. Buy a charger.
The new version is a 1-click install. It installs the kernel, reboots into it, then auto-installs the ROM. I tested it coming from JFD without issues.
These are based on voodoo5 beta code. Curio is releasing voodoo5 stable here soon, and I'll post an updated no-wipe kernel flash for that.
The ROMS are Team Whiskey Obsidian, Onyx, and Fusion. I changed the install procedure and the kernel out, the rest is as they made it. I take no credit for the ROM. Please post bugs here however, so I can make sure they are ROM bugs before letting TW know about them. I'm running the Onyx version as my daily driver. There has been some private beta testing, and they seem stable, but do have Odin handy just in case. I have installed over the top of various ROMs, but the safest way is probably to come from JFD just to be sure.
ALL THESE ROMS WIPE. NO, I WON'T CHANGE THAT.
Obsidian V5b: http://www.tabbal.net/files/Dragon-Obsidian-Installer-v1.0.zip
Onyx 4.2: http://www.tabbal.net/files/Dragon-Onyx-Installer-v1.0.zip
Fusion Final: http://www.tabbal.net/files/Dragon-Fusion-Installer-v1.0.zip
NOTE: THESE INSTALL VOODOO. ALL THE USUAL VOODOO PRECAUTIONS APPLY, IF FLASHING SOMETHING, DISABLE IT FIRST.
The latest voodoo stuff seems to play nicer and I have flashed things from clockwork without bricking, but just be warned.
Updates:
Kernel with the stable voodoo5 release. Should work with any froyo ROM, does not wipe.

Curious! So what's the true (RFS free) Quadrant score for Vibrant?

Can we have just a kernel flash that will convert all the partitions? supercurio's i9000 flash doesn't wipe the data, it simply tars it and then untars it back once the conversion is done to each partition. Thanks for the hard work.

The post is about the ROMs, but yes, the kernel update I'm about to post will convert an existing system to ext4 on reboot with the just released voodoo5 stable code.
It's the custom kernel I reference in the OP. If you want more than about 12 hours off charger, don't install it. I'm going to look at Eugene's recently posted source to see if I can implement whatever he did to get the kernel sleeping better, but no promises. And reports are kind of mixed last time I looked at it anyway.
When Samsung gets around to releasing source, we can do better. Till then, give me a patch or don't complain about it.

Nice. I'll hold off trying this with Axura 2.1 until this posted, then. A battery life of 12 hours is fine in exchange for what Voodoo will provide in return.

Froyo Kernel on Eclair?
ttabbal,
I did not know that a Froyo kernel could be backward compatible to Eclair. Is that the case, given that your Dragon 2.0 incorporating Voodoo 5 Stable will work with Bionix Fusion?
Please help me to understand this.
More to the point, I am on Bionix 1.9.1. Would Dragon 2.0 w/Voodoo 5 Stable work on my setup?
Thanks,
Bruce

Would love to use this, however i cant seem to get anything to install from the market no matter what i do. My TitaniumBackup restores just fine(apps only). Ive ODIN'd back to JFD twice but still nada. Ill try starting from JI6 and see if it helps.

So I'm running ttabbal's latest kernel, 2.0, and just ran a quadrant. It gets 1564 as the score. Now, this isn't just from voodoo alone, he's done a few speed tweaked which will bump up the score. But it's snappy as hell.
"if you amplify everything, nothing is heard"

Just put this in my phone and its works fine I'm running axura 2.1 works fine but u will see a second boot up screen the benchmark test is not that high I got in the 2500 with the oclf inthe market download but can't do that one anymore it tells me I have one installed already but over all its smooth

Don't worry about benchmarks, they are easy to fool in a high level system like Android. Cyanogen managed to get something stupid like 10k out of Quadrant.
This setup isn't for being a benchmark queen. It's targeted at a couple things I deem important. Multitasking smoothness/performance, and a test of direct-to-ext4 install. The no-wipe voodoo kernel is really intended to be used as part of the whole, but like I said, it should work with any froyo. Note: NOT ECLAIR. If there is more demand for an eclair version, I'll consider updating my eclair ramdisk as well.
As for the market, couldn't say. It's NOT the rom/kernel though. The market is a finicky thing and sometimes just doesn't work. It's usually the server side or the app itself that has an issue though. There's also an update to Market for Froyo, it seems to be more stable. You should get it downloaded automatically after running for a while. To check, look at an app description, you should have a new tab "Related".
When I've had market problems, I fire up my Wife's G2 on a stock rom (not even root) and she does too, so it's not anything I, or anyone other than Google, can control.

Does anyone know whether the Dragon Kernel that works with any Froyo ROM available from the OP supports use of a BootAnimation.zip?
UPDATE: Thanks geoffcorey for the info!
Tried on Axura 2.1 with larger nand. Flashed, rebooted, converted with no issues and is running very well so far. Haven't been successful getting Voodoo to run before now.
Thanks to TW, ttabbal, Supercurio, et al.

I did this very thing in my post #16 above yours. Go for it! Remove any other lag fixes you may have though. I had none installed so I didn't have to do that. PERFORM A NANDROID backup and optionally copy to a computer before flashing the kernel to be safe. Restoring the Nandroid backup won't restore the kernel though.
The dangers are minimal if you backup. Permanently bricking the phone is unlikely. You may soft brick but you probably won't. PLUG IN AND DON'T TURN OFF THE PHONE UNTIL THE "TW" LOGO DISAPPEARS! Around this time, you will hear a voice say voodoo has been activated.
I believe the conversion process may attempt to revert the changes it tried to make in the event of an unsuccessful conversion. If reversion is successful then you should again have access to CWM to flash back to any rom you have stored on your phone. Use nandroid to restore your data and your back to normal.

[Q] Noob Question

Ok so I was looking into methods on how to speed up my captivate and OCLF came up. I did it and it worked great but as I read on , many said to not use it as it was outdated. Is there something similar that uses a faster file system that I can use? Stock 2.2, Rooted

Eh. Maybe...
If you want really fast speed and dont mind flashing, i would flash firefly 3.0, its pretty safe just make sure you have 100% charge when you do it. Then get the OC/UV kernal onix 2.0.5 and boot into recovery and change the file system to ext4...
Any questions? Make another post here i've already done this and can help you out.

I'm kind of hesitant on flashing a rom :/ is there any other way to do it?

Voodoo lagfix doesn't have a fix for froyo yet. Got any love for flashing a kernal?
The extisz Kernal would be for you It has the Voodoo Fixes and everything. You would just need to get the modded 3e recovery and then get CWM and flash the .zip you can download from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988805
You could always go back to JF6 and mod everything on it, and voodoo would work on that
OR you could just do OCLF its going to be a little increase, not much because the filesystem changes to ext2 not ext4, voodoo does ext4 which is faster

Search for any KB1 kernel in the Dev section. If you want you stay as true to stock as possible, use Supercurio's stock KB1 + Voodoo kernel. It's nothing fancy, but it works really well with stock KB1.
Existz's KB1 kernel is also good. Overstock KB1 1.3 is another.

Sorry for the really nooby question but what is a kernel? And if I flashed a rom or a kernel how would I get back to stock if I ever wanted to? Also does my data carry over from rom to rom?

In short, the kernel is what talks to the phone and how fast it functions. If you flashed a ROM or kernel you could get back to stock by using the Odin one-click downloader, and yes your data carries over. You will not loose data unless the modem you are using for a paticular ROM is not very good in your area...which can also be swapped out for a better one.
But you should really read some of the helpful guides about flashing ROMs.. it will answer a lot of your questions, and future questions

Lol, he wasn't talking about internet data, yes your data can be backed up and restored rom to rom with an app called titanium backup.

Lagfix EXT4 for UCKH3

Is UCKH3 going to see a EXT4 lagfix, or is there another way I can do a EXT4 lagfix on my phone? I like to play games on my phone, and the games are very laggy. I love I9000 rom because they run very smooth, but can't get a modem that sounds as loud or as clear as the one in the captivate UCKH3. Can anyone please help. I've been searching xda developers every day in hopes that I will find a way to lagfix KH3. Thanks in advance.

No kernel source = no lagfix

Cog 5 got ext 4 and it had no source.... I admit odds of getting ext 4 is slim with out the source.

KF1 had ext4 support built in to the kernel apparently. No source needed. As far as if the KH3 kernel also supports ext4, what else is needed, or what method designgears used to convert the partitions you could send him a private message and see if he can provide the details. You could even just check out the cog 5 v2 package yourself.

No DesignGear's method was unfinished. Converting to ext broke alot of things. It is possible though, but when coding the kernel with out the source you usually end up braking things in the process.

What was unfinished? The kernel supported ext4 out of the box, he bundled in the required e2fsprogs and he scripted the partition conversion before the firmware gets installed.
There is no way to revert without using heimdall (or odin) since you need to re partition, but functionally, he did the job.
v2 seemed to run fine for me for what it was. What was broken exactly? It didn't seem like a lot was broken.

Alot of small things. Wifi would connect but wouldn't reconnect automatically. I don't remember exactly why I moved away from it. Thing is on my phone worked well enough to be a daily driver but not for alot of people. Thing is it is possible to enable ext4, but with out source you end up braking stuff.

Fair enough. I just wonder how much of it was 2.3.3 to begin with.

So you Guy's mean I can't get ext4 without a kernel? If the uckh3 kernel supports ext4 then there has to be a program out there. I also had cog v2 installed but I never had ext4 on that rom either. I also had voodoo control and never saw an option for lagfix on cog v2.

If you had V2 then you where running in Ext4 format. There was no Voodo lag fix per say, but the filesystem was in ext4 format (exactly what Voodoo lag fix does.)

Just a thought, but couldn't you just flash the kh3 modem to a I9000 rom and therefore have the smoothness that galaxy s roms give but with the loudness of the captivate speaker? I was on apex 8.2 with kh3 modem and everything worked great. Though whenever wifi was on people complained of an Echo effect.

No. you do not mix I897 modems with I9000 kernels or vice versa. It causes problems, like you mentioned the echo, other problems vary including loss of audio completely on calls...

I have had the audio loss as well... a simple switch to speakerphone and back fixed it. Was unaware that was a modem/rom compatibility problem.

Luckily, I only use my Captivate as an Media Player or for WIFI surfing. The KH3 modem over Apex worked great for me. WIFI has been stable, battry life is better than the non-lagfixed I897 Roms of any flavor and speed is noticeably faster as well.

So, you have a phone that you never make calls with?

Yep it was purchased as a replacement to my iPod touch. I will never go back to iPod.
