Personally, I think CyanogenMod 7 for SGS is much smoother when you scroll things. But animation and speed is the same.

if you looking froyo version then it is darky or simple galaxy or ultimate rom but u must also do a combo with kernels like damiangto or speedmode or others...just do a test and u will se what is your perfect combo and desire u want =)

thanks ill try those roms and see which is quicker
but can i put a different kernel on custom roms cos i tried a kernel for overclocking on darky and it kept freezing

Ahola!
I can personally recommend insanity 0.6.6 with gto 1.1 gold kernel. its fast and responsive as hell. Try to keep it as minimalistic as possible to keep you speed. Get a 2000+ quadrant every time and with ext2 flat and some tweaks you can get near the 2500 without oc Going to flash ultimate with gto 1.1 gold today. Will keep you updated!

Thanks will wait for your updatee

i flashed insanity 0.6.6 with 1.1 gold kernel and i only got 1472 in quadrants
can u tell what i should change in recovery mode so that i can make it quicker, im a noob so can u do a step by step??

just flashed juwe's 1.5 smart edition rom, man its good, i think its the first rom smoother than darkys without OC kernel...

Change filesystem to ext2 with ext2 loops for the best performance. You can also do without loops or ext4 with ext2 loops. Not that this will make you lose data when you do a battery pull. For me performance is more important then safety, never had any trouble but be aware.
Check this link for more info on the system:

Im on simply galaxy now and for me it looks better than insanity and is just as fast. (Note that I stripped away almost 100 mb and replaced some of insanity's work)
Still on Damian's kernel and its fast with underclock (800mhz) and undervolt (-100), have 2 full days battery now!
Also quadrant doesn't say anything. With the right tweaks you get a 3000+ score but actual performance is different. Just try some things see how scrolling, navigating, opening a lot of apps and games run. (run n64oid games or dungeon defenders, this will require a lot from your phone)
In the end its all about preferences but there are some huge differences. I was on darky untill 2 months ago. Soon CM7 and Miui will be awesome, check their process in a few weeks

yea its true, i used to get quadrant score of 1800+ with OCLF but things kept force closing,crashing a lot, the quadrant score may show u the computing speed but in terms of multi-tasking and real-time phone functioning i use Darky 9.3 and its very smooth and responsive, better than stock definitely (as well as OCLF)

I have some question:
I'm noob at using lagfix tweak in some kernel, I used to change to ext4, is it ok?
which kernel that I can choose ext2?
Can u show me the way to tweak insanity?
Is Tegrak kernel better?

Quadrant scores doesn't really matter.I get only 1000 with darky's 10 RC3, but it's ultra smooth ad lagfree.

Yeah man but it will be better with a higher both quadrant and real perfomance
I still wonder how to get near 2500 points with ext2 and some tweaks? I need your instructions.

Miui is preeetty fast in 3d ...if thats what ur looking for.

I tried MIUI and CM7 but due to camera and FM player was not good so I still looking for Froyo
Ginger ROMS cannot modified like Froyo Mod Kernels.

what lagfix to apply with darkys rom

i just updated to darkys 7.8 rom its fast but score is low with quadrent only at 1100~
i used to use OCLF which convert the partition to ext2 however darkys already use ext4 for file system so i dont know if this gonna do any good
so which lag fix should i do and where to get it from
thx
Apply voodoo from recovery.
It's included in Darky's, but not activated.
Its fast but quadrant is poor .
Suggests quadrant is a poor tool .
jje
Quadrant was reliable until Froyo appeared. From then on it became irrelevant.
applied
thx
take no notice off quadrant scores they mean nothing
Someone is concerned about his ePeen.

I would ignore Quadrant scores, they are pretty much obselete.

[Q] Speed mod is SLOWER?

Hello everyone, I have a Captivate flashed with a darkytt3r v8.1 ROM. I ran a quadrant standard benchmark and got a pretty good 1105 Mhz. Then I realized I hadn't even flashed speedmod-kernel-i897-k12o-500hz-CWM from the SGS kernal flasher and then i did another benchmark and got 1018. Did that ROM come with a better speed mod that I overwrote with this one? Can anybody suggest a good speed mod to put on my phone? I like to have my phone push the boundary's of going so fast it combusts so the faster the bester
Quadrant scores are not reliable. Base your tests on other things.
while running eclair stock 2.1 with one click lag fix installed I was getting scores over 2300. Now with cognition 2.1.7, I get about 1500. However, the phone is still faster than stock.
Kernel is what you mean, not speedmod. Setiron's kernel is currently the fastest, since it is the only one overclocked past 1.2 ghz but that is only if your phone is capable of that, not all are. Speedmod isn't the fastest, since it isn't overclocked. It is one of the most stable though, and definitely the most feature rich.
Hard to go off benchmarks these days... I prefer real life usage...

I had Firebird kernel with DG's Perception ROM (lagfix applied) and got around 1,600 every time (concordant with DG's own results). I flashed speedmod k12p and now I'm getting 1,350-1,450. I don't know whether Quadrant is reliable but those are my numbers and it seems speedmod is kind of slower.

Thumb rule: Run multiple tests, atleast 3-6
Check the ROM and kernel in my signature. I have posted the scores too.
Thanks guys! I ended up just flashing phoenix 3.5 and then using the kernal. I ran 5 benchmarks and got around 1350 everytime, and Im happy with that. Thanks for your advice.

[Q] Best Kernal / Rom for XXJVK

Hi Guys,
I am currently using Stock XXJVK with:
Speedmod-kernel-k13d-500hz
Dh2311's Turbo Ginger V.1.1
Supercurio's Kernel Fixes
Everything it running pretty well, but a little slow with poor benchmarks,
Is there a better combo i can use to achieve more performance
Slow how? low quadrant score?
Quadrant ist not everything. Quadrant is not a serious Benchmark!
You need to wait until more development is undertaken for this rom .
jje
i agree with jjEgan because GB is still fresh so there is no best mix your gonna have to do some experimenting
but i use juwe's 3.1 rom with supercurio's hacked kernel and it works pretty good with amazing battery life even under extensive use i put it through

Hi needing help which custom rom and voodoo control ?

Hi all, wow just rooted my sg2 and now want a good custom rom, any suggestions please, also is VooDoo control out yet for sg2 and if not is there any simular app within a custom rom that will do the same as VooDoo Control ie boost the volume etc as i found this app to be superb on my old samsung g1 ,
Hope to hear soon from Brian
Theres no voodoo or alternative yet for the gs2, I played around with my gs2 last week when I got it rom wise and found that a few of them are kinda unstable at the moment (cyanogen for example)
At the moment I'm running Darky Rom V2 Rom Here
and instead of running the supercore kernel Im running 2.6.35.11 ninphetamine 2.1.3 Kernel Here as it does have a really good battery life and overclocking ability if you look at the benchmark test on the kernel page im getting another 2000 ontop of that, current score is 6235, that with a few things running in the background. After all my playing this is the best currently available in my opinion.
Hay mate first this is the s1 forum.
Second i test many room on my Gs2 i think darky is very simple and no major difference from stock rom....i think u should try Alienware rom its cool man and have ninptimine kernel and u can overclock this to1.6 and u can earn 5100 point on qudarant and too much fast.

How can i speed up my galaxy s GT-i9000

Hi all on xda i'm wanting to improve my galaxy s i9000 speed, at the moment my phone runs at abt 960-1000 on quadrant standered which i know is rubbish, my galaxy s is on a stock rom & kernel (firmware 2.3.3, build number GINGERBREAD.XWJVH, kernel 2.6.35.7-i9000XWJVH-CL184813 [email protected] #2) updated using kies, I used to have it rooted but unrooted it don't know why what r my options regarding getting better results on quadrant any help on this topic would be much appreciated.
Thank you
John
install a custom rom,
if u want good battery, decent speed then install Darkys Rom,
if u want PURE speed (with stock android, without the touchwiz ui) then install CyanogenMod7
or just go over to the development section and experiment around with the Roms,
MAKE SURE THAT B4 U INSTALL A ROM, U ARE ROOTED BY INSTALLING A GINGERBREAD KERNEL THORUGH ODIN, AND THAT YOU KNOW HOW TO GET OUT OF A SITUATION IF U HAPPEN TO BRICK YOUR PHONE (LIKELY, BUT EASY TO FIX ) however, if u do anything to your phone and u dnt know how to fix it, im not responsible, ill try 2 help but wnt guarantee anythink
if i helped, be sure to click the "thanks" button
Forget quadrant, just a random number generator. High score in quadrant has value when you wanna show off, and at the same time let others know you really don't know.
I'm still going on XWJVH, happy user of rooted Semaphore kernel 1.8.2.
The included Semaphore app gives you access to a lot of tweaks, Voodoo color/sound and a smooth operating phone.
The latest leaked ROMs (XXJVS, XXJVT) still has bugs: phone FC, WIFI disconnect. If you feel brave and wanna try one of these ROMs, make sure to read what's fixed in their OP and latest posts for experience of users.

Try ThunderBolt! in my sig. Be sure to read the requirements and meet them before flashing
Stock jvt
or faaryabs f1 rom v13 that hopefully will be released today if you want more features.
talon or semaphore as kernel.
And thunderbolt tweaks.

delete unnecessary apps
root and delete unneccesary apps.
Flash stock JVT and Semaphore, then convert to EXT4.
my WiFi works fine, and for the Phone FC, just flash the JVT Phone Fix.
For me this is the best stock ROM that I've tried. Fast and stable, the browser has improved a lot.

Root and install a Cooked rom, anyone will do better than the stock one.
And forget Quadrant, it's rubbish.
+1 on Pikachu01 Thunderbolt script. Running very much smoother on my SGS.
Mitra Rom is faster then other and use lagfix
small tip

If you use JVT with JVK modem the phone will operate amazingly, no phone fc, no wifi disconnect, great battery life + performance.
Good luck!
try miui mintberry
My advice would be first flash a few custom roms+kernels and see how that works for you.
If that isn't fast or smooth enough you could try tweaks like thunderbolt!

MIUI mint berry and via rom toolbox clocked into 1,3ghz
I´m on JVZ with Semaphore 2.1.1 and overclocked CPU (1300 mhz). This motor is fast, stable and smooth.
Hey!
2.3.6 is very good!
you should test at the beginn of your "Flash carrier" a few Roms + Kernels.

Look, if you want a rom that supports custom themes, mods and other tweaks, then go for stock JVT or some custom rom. But it is undeniable that gingerbread will always lag slightly on the galaxy s due to low ram. Heck, it even lacks on the nexus s.
In reality, if you want a lag-free (and I really mean LAG-FREE) rom, you should go for Froyo 2.2.1 roms. Froyo roms were meant for 512mb of ram, and they work flawlessly on the galaxy s. ZSJPK 2.2.1 never lagged on my SGS.
And just to be clear, ram is indeed the limiting factor to smoothness on our phone. On Gingerbread, free ram is less than 100mb after a day's usage, and so the phone has to constantly close and reopen background processes while you're using it. If I'm not mistaken, the default kernels begin to close apps and processes once ram drops below 64mb. Eg: Free ram is 100mb. You open the browser which uses 20mb, and then when you load facebook which uses another 20mb, the free ram has dropped below 60, so while processing the webpage, the cpu has to simultaneously close background processes. Then when you leave fb, the cpu reopens those processes. Hence, the phone lags.
But on Froyo, there's up to 180mb of ram on boot, and somehow ram consumption after prolonged use is not that high, so it can last for days with over 120mb of ram and hence never lags.
In conclusion, the only viable solution to lag that I have experienced so far is by using froyo 2.2.1 roms, especially the later builds like ZSJPK or the other one which name I cannot remember. Things like voodoo lagfixes don't really help (unless you're on eclair) and custom rom tweaks are really just placebo effects actually.

Wrong thread. Also there is tonnes of information a single google search away on how to root your phone. One way is to download Odin and then flash a rooted kernal such as CF-Root onto the phone from Download mode.
