I just installed voodoo and then used oclf, but now my accelerometer is all jacked up, anyone else have this problem or know a way to fix it?

Stupid question but why would you put oclf over voodoo
Captivate
Cog 2.2
I saw it on a forum, and after I did it it went from a quadrant score of 1600 to 2300, so it works but the only thing that doesn't work is my accelerometer

What Rom are you on? The only suggestion I can make is to remove one of the Lagfix. Or flash back stock. I would search the thread or even just Google your problem. Someone may of had the same issue and found a way to fix

You're kidding, right? Please tell me you're a troll and you didn't really put OCLF on top of voodoo.

Don't put OCLF on top of anything.
If you're interested in something faster than voodoo, check out SetiroN's kernel and/or the ROM's that use it. Such as in my sig.
What's the quadrant score on that?

Quadrant score has nothing to do with how it performs.

The last two lagfix options in SetitoN's (or stutzy's) kernel are basically the same thing as oclf over top of voodoo - though the on only thing that would be good for is quadrant scores, won't really notice much of a real world performance dif. And that kind of lagfix combo is really going to cut into your available space on your data partition.
Then what would you recommend performance wise
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Honestly you sound like a noob and SetiroN's kernel requires a certain skill level to install / debug because it is still in alpha stages.
Just stick with Cognition if you want my advice. It is plenty fast, has a great battery life, and automatically works with Voodoo. And it is fairly stable. OCLF on top of it will not help.
In my experience SetiroN's kernel has better performance but takes a cut in the battery life and also has some wierd bugs.. you don't have full functionality in every way... lots of people like it... but if you want my recommendation it's going to be a lot of work for you so go with Cog instead. if you go with setiroN expect to put in a number of hours learning how to get it working.. and expect a few people on that thread (not setiroN) to flame you if you post a question about hwo to get it working. last night there was a lot of drama. larger point is you will probably get criticized there from a few bad apples.
I am a noob, but I can figure stuff out, I'll give it a try. Thanks.

I am currently running Cog rom SetiroN's kernel with jfs advanced all jfs lagfix and I am happy with my phone's performance.
Don't know if this is the best performance or not as that is somewhat subjective as to what will rework best for every one on their own phone with their own configuration.
My recommendation is run what you want to run on your phone. If quad scores are important oclf type lagfix's that make some type of buffer that sets on top the data partition will always outperform in the quad's input/out bench mark and get overall better quad scores, but the buffer wil take up valuable space on your data partition.
The only way you can know for sure what works best for you is to try them out, do some actual time trials and stress tests with the apps you use and pick which one you like best.
What ever lagfix you choose make sure you know how to properly disable it when needed before you actually install that lagfix.
Ok cool, I really like cog ill try putting SetrioN kernel on it, thanks man

This had probably been covered many times previously but due to the kernels being updated so often, I feel the need to discuss it.
The fact that I've tried loads of rims and now mixing it up trying kernels is just a coincidence :-D
So what do people think at the moment?

Its a matter of preference that's why you won''t get many people to answer you.
If you want Top performance but feel adventurous and can live with slight niggles, then you can use Advanced Voodoo 666 1.2 where you can OC it to 1280hz. Its like being on the edge without falling over
Otherwise, if you want stable and performance balance, then head to Speedmod's Kernel
If you want extreme performance with sacrifice over battery life or stability, head to Super Optimized OC/UV Kernel

All the best!
Since it's not so much a hassle to flash new Kernels now
+1 for rajuki
I have noticed that when I click a button, I usually have to wait from 1-2 seconds before I get a response. Would lagfix take care of this? I'm running stock Froyo.
As many have stated all the lagfix does is help fix the very slow rts file system, it most likely would not help in your case.
Best thing to do is delete unused apps, and reboot the phone every day or to(seems to help mine out, cant guarantee results)
Also if you havent needed root in 5 months you probably don't need it
Unless you want to use opitimised roms, I dont see why you would need to root. Check your memory usage delete unused apps and reboot the phone ever once in a while.
My honest opinion, no reason to have an android phone if you are not using roms

Gonna have to agree with mcord here. had to go back to stock froyo for about 5 hours (didnt have all my tool to get back my 2.3.4 ROM) and it was horrible.
you might not be up for it but i really recommend flashing a Froyo Custom ROM from one of the xda DEVs. you'll love your phone and be amazed that it can be so much smoother and responsive.
First thing I did after i rooted was flashed a new kernel to overclock. Performance increased but battery life was poor. Then my first rom was cm7..been hooked since..tried miui once then went back to cm7.

No a Benchmark score is not the best example to lag fix your phone ,but the more power you get, plus better battery life and, better perrformance are great reasons to lag fix your phone. I just posted the quadrant score so kb0npw can see the increase performance from normal rfs file system to ext4(lag fix).

I dont think he thought it meant everything, he was giving a simple before and after which showed some improvement. Quadrant can actually be pretty useful when trying to gauge what effects certain changes have on your phone, say you score a 1900 before you change 'x' and then 2200 after that change, then you know its increased performance somewhat and youre moving in the right direction. How much it has increased your performance is debatable, however. My point is quadrant can be a useful tool when making changes on your phone if you take it with a grain of salt.
EDIT: To answer op's question, Read up on some custom roms and flash one, the difference is phenomenal and you'll wonder how you went 5 months without them. If you have any other questions feel free to pm me and I'll see what help I can be
I'm starting to get worried, i have tried for almost a month of switching between ROMS (MIUI and CM7) and kernels and i haven't been able to achieve a good battery life. My battery life stats shows that the android systems is using almost 70% and android os is using also like 20%, using os monitor I checked my processes and the process of download manager is the one that is using all my cpu, please I don't know what else I can do, im getting worried something is wrong with my phone, please help

More specifically its a CM7 bug not just MIUI. You have to experiment with different kernels and modems. Especially modems, the best one is dependant on your area.

Yahh pinnacle is really nice, I am sorta a flash aholic and flash a lot roms just to keep it 'fresh' ;P Probably the best ROM is MIUI for CRAZY PERFORMANCE and looks, KH3 AND JVS for Performance and battery, some(very little to none) lag.
But if your looking a daily driver stick with leaked samsung stock roms!!!!

i loved MIUI and CM7 but i dont know why my battery started to suck, the battery didnt last 8 hours, less than 8 hours sometimes, but i really liked MIUI, but this pinnacle rom sometimes it freezes and reboot, if an app freezes, the phone reboots, i have had almost 3 reboots since i flashed it, im thinking trying Apex, so lets see what happens.

Well others have reported that TW 4.5 has been acting up on some of the newer ROMS and causing freezing and reboots. So I'd suggest using a different launcher for a bit to see if it is affecting you also.

last i read, speedmod is not fully geared for daily, so how to compare?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Today I have tested both (on LPY German firmware).
All in all, at the moment I prefer Speedmod, which looks smoother.
In the morning I have used Franco kernel, but two times it happened that my device got slower and slower until rebooted. I had also several lags.
In the afternoon I installed Speedmod, when I saw there was a second version (which includes CWM). No lags, no slowdowns so far.

Have used speedmod and franco on stock lpf for me franco broke my wifi connection there's a workaround for this which is to se your phone is statically and not via dhcp
On speedmod my wifi works though haven't tested the latest one
I then decided just to go back to stock
Both sort of claim to had fix the brick bug issue thought they do say they need more evidence that is fix. But as of now there has been only one brick on franco but further analysis is needed to confirm

Both are good
atm using franco's kernel. its smooth and no problems at all.
Im on kingdroid v2 using apex launcher
I am using Franco right now, seems responsive
But there's no overclock capability in the voltage control app.
Anyone has luck playing with the oc uv
comparing benchmark tests scores, franco kernel wins, but comparing reality score speedmod kernel wins for sure. I get low score with speedmod kernel but it is the most smoothest, bug-free ics kernel so far. Dont look at those benchmark test ^^

Both are good, however Speedmod is slightly better with LPF. (IMHO) Franco has more bells and whistles, but Speedmod seems to be a little more stable based on the apps that I have and my usage patterns. My advise is to try both, but please follow the installation process to the letter. A few times I've done what I thought was best with flashing kernels, but actually ended up wiping/re-flashing etc and then following the instructions to the letter with success.
Latest... Tried Franco #4.... Now as good as Speedmod, if not better.
Been on franco for a few days now ... everything is smooth so far.
It seems like speedmod is alot smoother than franco, even though Franco scores higher in benchmark tests.
