i'm confused, i want install last froyo rom, but i don' undestand that rom....
now i have JPK rom with lagfix OCLF. I don't undestand what is voodoo, i know that OCLF after some day is no longer efficient as before-. is there some lagfix permanent ?
Thread belongs in Q&A. Obviously.
I dont think you'll fix the lag permanently... Vodoo is for eclairs if i am correct, dont know if it works with 2.2's.. Use OCFL by Ryanz if you need. But tbh atm with JP6\JPM i am not even using lag fix.. dunno maybe is just my particular phone, but i havent got any lag even in my stock Eclair 2.1.. neither in JPK and now its even better in JP6.. must be luck or something.
I'm running 2.1-update1 ECLAIR.UCJH7, I want to install ryanza's lag fix from the market, my phone is currently rooted already, will this have any affect on installing this app and doing the lag fix?
Nope, youre good to go.
My Captivate went from 800 Quadrant score to 2200 with OCLF v2.2. It's a whole different phone.
just disable before any updates or flashing roms/kernels
Am I able to install the Voodoo lag fix on my Captivate? I know the AT&T version is supported but I rather not brick my device. Please respond!
Thanks,
Androidfann
I have a Rogers Captivate, and I have used Voodoo for a while.
Make sure you have root access, and go nuts. It really does improve the quality.
have u used voodoo with 2.2?
i just got the captivate and am now on stock 2.2 with root and oclf installed. is it worth changing to voodoo?

OCLF uses ext2, which is less safe than ext4, which is used by Voodoo. If you want Voodoo, flash the JJ4 + Voodoo kernel in the dev section.

Depends. The newer Kernals really unlock a lot of features that we didn't have before, and you don't have now.
If you use your phone as your media player, than the benefits of Voodoo sound were enough to make me switch.
hey guys, i got the official rogers 2.2, can i still use voodoo? what good roms use rogers 2.2 as a base and include voodoo? any suggestions?
Hey folks, another Canadian Rogers Captivate user here...just wanted to confirm if I can use the Voodoo stable 5.4.1 for Froyo 2.2.1 as it looks like I'm on 2.2 stock (and rooted)? I'm new to android and a bit scared, but the Voodoo fix seems easy enough..
No one seems to be answering the main question posed here.
For us STOCK Rogers froyo users which version of voodoo should we use?
I am not running a custom rom, I have not used Odin (used Kies to install official froyo update). I can't seem to find a version of voodoo lagfix specifically for stock Rogers 2.2. If anyone e has it installed can you point us in the right direction?

Hi there to all asking about Voodoo for Rogers,
I have tried suckerpunch (based on speedmod)
Also tried the newest speedmod 13c
No problems with either.
I personally have tried voodoo (5.4.1 and the one for att captivate) with no luck at all.

People have been using the SpeedMod kernel which is the Rolls Royce of kernels; it enables a lot of the Captivates features and power. However, the Kernel is based on the i9000 kernel, which is the sister handset to the Captivate. The kernels are compatible across both phones, but the stock modems on captivates don't seem to do as well with some setups; you'll see this in the sprawling thread dedicated to that topic. Some people will flash an i9000 modem as well, and people seem to have varying results with different combinations.
Having said that, if you don't want to use bluetooth, the stock modem is perfectly serviceable. You could go ahead and flash your SpeedMod kernel and see vast improvements is phone function without tweaking in the handset's general recovery menu. There's also plenty there to keep the tweaksters busy
However, new to the scene is the same developers amalgam of his voodoo lagfix in a stock Rogers Froyo kernel. I'm running it now and I am still testing and checking things, but it seems fine though. There are some caveats to respect though, I just spent nearly an entire day getting my phone back to Stock Froyo after doing a bad job of 'un'lagfixing before flashing kernels. However, if it's your first endeavour into flashing or modifying your phone's software, it would be a relatively safe bet. You should not have any lagfix installed nor should you even think about doing it without doing a Titanium Backup of your phone, which would mean rooting.
Hope that helps a bit.
Clemmei.. I saw in the description of your phone that has the official version of Gingerbread 2.3.3 AT&T Gingerbread in your captivate ... How did you install, by odin? I have a Captivate I897 UCKB1, i´m interested in this oficial Rom.. Works fine?? And what version i need to chose for my modems.. Thanks!!

There is a 1-click Gingerbread UCKF1 thread in the dev forum. Thats what I am currently running and its working well so far.. The only issue I have is my GPS is crap.. but it was crap with stock froyo aswell so no big deal there.
I'm on the rogers i896 also.

It's sort of officially unofficial. It would seem to be a prebuild for a forthcoming Gingerbread release, it's tight and a great daily driver.
I did use Odin; follow the usual safety procedures and all will be well. The modem that comes with the package is great, but my 4G no longer works, it's 3G for now, but I got terrible 4G speeds anyway, so there's not much of a downgrade there.
The GPS did not function so great straight away, but I keyed in the code *#3214789650# - Settings - SUPL Settings, and changed the server to supl.google.com and the server port to 7276. I got much better results from that configuration.
Hope that helps!
Thanks for the help of gps friend ... I have it installed and this great .. But you have some voovoo installed, can not find any on the net .. The voodoo 5.5.x served me just to change the start GTI9000, I do not like .. Thanks for your help..
Congrats for a great forum!!
I'm here because i have a question about voodoo lag fix:
1. Voodoo Lag Fix will be work if i have not flashed ROM?
my software revision is I9000TUMJH4/I9000TTCEJH6/I9000TUMJG1/I9000TUMJH4
Version of Android: Eclair 2.1 update 1
I tried before with One Click Lag Fix, but after install EXT2 Tools after Boot Animation only get a black screen, i use recovery mode to apply factory reset and I'm worried this happen again with voodoo lag.
Well you should upgrade to froyo instead. The latest is fast and work well.
Then you have many option to get it faster.
**DamianGTO Steam kernel. 349MB Ram. 256HZ. ext2. js3 base**
Ok thanks for the advice i'll find the way to upgrade cause here in Mexico we don't have the official upgrade yet

the GPS on my Captivate i896 (Official 2.2 Stock with the Zeam launcher, rooted) is taking more than 30 seconds to get a fix. under clear sky.
I´ve tried the Jupiter fixes, the setting changes, but I can't get any of them to work..
so.. any help on what should I do? since its 2.2, i don't think i can use Andromeda or another custom rom that comes with the fix.

You should be able to flash any of the other ROMS available even if you have the official 2.2 update.... thats what I did
I upgraded to froyo 2.2 (official rogers through Kies)...had that for a week then got adventourous and flashed my first ROM. After that...I have been flashing like crazy...lol
