[SOURCE] Supercurio's EXT4-based "Voodoo"Lag Fix

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!

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.

TeamBlackHat App

Team Black Hat has released an app in Market with a new Tranquility and a Deodexed updated Froyo. You can download such as Rom Manager from within the app.

I downloaded but I am going to wait on a changelog before I flash it.

Well...I downloaded the latest tranquility and the version says FlyX.01 Final and the android versionis pre leak 13.

Downloaded the app and the latest Tranq release since I had a few issues with the last one. This one feels better to me than the previous. Wonder what they changed.

Are you sure you downloaded 2.3.5 RC? Or it installed correctly?
I just installed successfully. Still on 2.3.13.
Don't see any differences so far. I am curious about the changes too.
Edit: Just noticed Froyo 2.3.15 there. Downloading now!

Oooooh a new leak! Let us know if you notice anything new.

Ok, Froyo 2.3.15 and Tranquility 2.3.5rc installed smoothly, but when I tried applying Onix Gala X theme from ROM Manager, I got stuck at the M logo. Battery pull solved the issue. So I'll try applying the theme manually.
I haven't noticed anything new so far from the short time I spent browsing around the phone. I'm dying to see the change logs lol!
Edit: manually installing Gala X theme worked =)
Edit2: I'm not sure if it was true for 2.3.13, but in this one Flash shows up in the Market.

In the market for 2.3.13 too, noticed it today .

Yes... that is exactly what I did.

Okay... Not trying to sound like an ass but this has been eating away at me for a good twelve hours or so....
You are paying for an app. Cool idea in my opinion.
You are also paying for access to mods. Not unheard of.(supporting is good)
Lots of hype for access to something no one else has.
Using the hype to, in a way, make people donate for your work that is kind of iffy. I like what those guys are trying to do but I do not like how they are doing it. I just can't quite hit on the point I am trying to make but I feel something scetchy is going on here. Thus, I go back to... Paying for an app that creates access to what they are making. Cool idea in my opinion.
God I hope I don't get flamed to hard for this.... Trying hard not to be a Debbie Downer.

Those that are satisfied with the Tranquility roms will likely donate. Although I do believe the leak itself should be available to the general public.

I understood what he said just fine.

Dude I understand you have your opinion, but if you don't want to support, then you may just have to wait for someone else to find a leak source in one of the MOST locked down firmware arenas for android, TBH is doing an amazing job! THREE 2.2 updates before motosuck released its first!? They deserve the two bucks for the app. Mind you this is coming from a person who has only purchased one app for his droid x; the one we are talking about. Besides with all the C&D motosuck has been throwing around this is a resonable alternative to insure we get the content we want. OH! And not to mention tranquility is one of the best alternatives to motoblur out right now, $2 seems like a VERY small price to pay for no hassle dl's and quick update potential. Thank you again Team Black Hat for all the hard work! I see kernel's in the near future.... Wahoo!

No, you don't have to. When asked about new change log on twitter, P3Droid said he'll provide it when he releases Tranquility to everyone. So my understanding is he'll make it available to general public soon.

So instead of charging for something that might possibly be construed as _his_ work, he's really just charging for Motorola's software that he paid someone to steal from them. Classy move.

Froyo R2D2 2.4.0 Deodexed

This just appeared on the Team Black Hat app. I'll post a change log when one appears. In the mean time, has anyone give this new build a run? Please post impressions.

Waiting to see if it's alright to use over top of 2.2 OTA....

what is this?

If I had to guess.. I'd say that P3Droid got his hands on the software going out for the R2D2 edition Droid 2.

Is the Droid 2 using the same kernel as the X?

Oh yea I see this in the TBH app now. Wonder what it will bring. Any idea how big the file is? I have no wifi so I'll have to wait.

just flashed it over the leak froyo no wipe, new boot animation so far
and live wallpapers that work flawlessly, quadrant bench mark still around 1490 as what i was getting with the leak froyo.

I'd like to know if it's simply a theme or if it's an entire ROM. If so, I'd like to know if it includes an updated Kernal over the 2.3.15 leak.

exactly. In response to a previous post, I can "guess" too. But I'd much rather have information posted since this is sort of like a "newslike" thread.
There's no point reposting something from one forum into another if you're not going to have at LEAST as much information as your source, or links.

there are reports of Swype not working in this build.

Agreed.
Just flashed it and no real changes.
Only thing changed is:
R2D2 boot animation.
4 Star Wars live wallpapers.
Star wars clock.
And some mild themeing, such as default contact icon is Cee3po...or however u spell that.
Star Wars Binoculars app...kinda a game I guess....although pointless...
And that's it....everything else is the exact same as 23.13 and 23.15...

No incentive there, unless ur a fanboy.

[ROM]Vibrant OFFICIALLY supported by CyanogenMod now! Added Changelog

This will be a game changer!!
PLEASE REMEMBER THESE ARE NIGHTLY BUILDS.
THEY WILL HAVE BUGS.

What does OFFICIAL SUPPORT mean?
LEARN BY CLICKING
An Excerpt from that link above for the lazy ones:
An “official” CyanogenMod version is one that uses our code review system, our source repository, and our mirror network. It should look, act, and feel like CM on any other device, and more importantly, it should follow our release schedules (which is a “when it’s ready” kind of thing, but we do plan our final/RC releases when we feel it’s ready). Most importantly, no major hardware functionality should be broken.
Click to expand...

So yeah, a fully functional (expect some bugs of course, initial release) Gingerbread built from AOSP AND injected with CM7 goodness.
Per the tweets, all hardware should work.
Nightly builds will be up on Rom Manager!!
I would also expect a ton of NEW roms to be based off CM7 and a ton of new themes...
DOWNLOAD
DOWNLOAD LINK << Vibrant Only
CHANGELOG
Though atinm has the FAQ Thread AND a thread in the Development section, you guys requested a link to the CHANGELOG < There is it.
FAQ?
Check out the thread by the man himself (atinm) HERE
What about GPS?
There have been reports of it working. We do not know this to be true though, and I do not mind that.
Expect for it not to work.... if it does, gravy boat!
WHO TO THANK??
@atinm (He would appreciate it if you became an organ donor - someone saved his life because they were)
@codeworkx
@dumdidum &
@guiperpt
THANK THEM for making the Galaxy line officially supported by CyanogenMod.
We owe these guys, big time.
HERE IS THEIR PAYPAL LINK
Also, @Koush (Rom Manager) has been doing a TON to get this up and running. Let him know you appreciate it.
You may not NEED it, but get the premium version of Rom Manager to show some support.
Now, go thank those guys...
EDIT 5/19/11 4:30
INITIAL INSTALL GUIDE
Perhaps there is an easier way, I did this while sitting at a copy machine bored AND it worked flawlessly for me.
Okay, I used this DOWNLOAD LINK (same as above)
moved it to internal sd after backing everything up
rebooted into CWR (I was on Trigger)
Do a nandroid backup (if you like)
I wiped (factory/data/dalvik)
installed... let it do its thing... several reboots (NORMAL)
Once done, I watched the beauty of the boot screen.
I then let it sit....
went into Rom Manager to Download Rom...
told it I already had CWR installed, selected the "CWR 3. " option...
selected the latest google apps, downloaded, unchecked any wiping options and let it do its thing
next reboot, signed in and I am good to go.
THE VIBRANT HAS BEEN REVIVED!!!

lol even cyanogen is trolling now. j/k guess the part about all of the hardware being in working order was a typo?

way to go after i sold my vibrant to pay for $5 monthly donation akaskriller's site we get cm7.

according to Antinm
#GalaxyS, #Captivate, #Vibrant will be shown as galaxysmtd, captivatemtd and vibrantmtd on http://download.cyanogenmod.com/
So check there guys, i can't find it, but yeah...
@people on about the GPS and ****..
Here's something 1 person asked Atinm...
@atinm how is #vibrant done if the gps isn't working yet? Or are we in for a surprise?
reply?
@tmosto Going to mainline in no way means bug free. It just means that development will now be done on CM repositories.

Just because it's official does not mean gps will work... a huge step though.

captivatemtd is there

Well, I will be a guinea pig. I am putting it on my vibrant ASAP!

Man i know you can get it to work You done some pretty amazing stuff on here and if you cant maybe you can get Jaybob to help you or something

with the navigation buttons at the bottom, it might be a little cramped. sure we can change the dpi to like 120 but my phone lags when i try to make everything smaller and fit more on the screen.

Or if the navigation buttons can be removed... who knows. Of course even cramped ICS would be great on our Heroes.

Im almost positive we will get some sort of port of ICS. Ever since froyo the companies have been saying that the hero simply can not handel the new updates because of minimal system requirements. However I red an article with a Q&A about ICS, and one of the questions was what are the minimal system requirements for ICS? The anser was none that i can think of right now. ICS is meant to bring Android tablets and phones toghether in developmental terms. Google is trying to unify android, rather than have phones rounning one type of android and tablets another. It has even been said that ICS will be available for older devices of up to one year old or so. But in closeing im prety optimistic about a port for the Hero, and probably sooner than latter.

Considering that our devs got the source now I'm sure were gona see ICS can't wait
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App

I downloaded the beta version of ICS for hero to see how it looks and feels it"s a little buggy it has some things that need to be worked out like not being able to pair with bluetooth device and bluetooth turning off completely and not being able to turn it back on again... Also when trying to turn on wifi hotspot the phone just hangs there saying turning on wifi screen I let it run for 5 minutes before I rebooted my phone... This rom is in early stages of devoplement and if and when the stuff that isn't working gets fixed I see this as my next rom of choice... Nice work jaybob on a job will done and a million thanks to you...
