I dont know if its me but I cant seem to get the quality search results on the app, that I can get online. I dont have a readily available computer, thats why I cant always search on one. Anyway......
I just flashed kk4. Am I overlooking an available kernel with voodoo sound/lagfix supported?

Samurai kernel will get you lagfix.
To get voodoo sound you'll have to buy the paid version.

Thank you very much. I was worried samuri was ext4, then I found an article saying GB is ext4, I was unaware. Also I couldn't remember if kernel version had to match build, but samuri is kk4 anyway.

Captivate Gingerbread runs on RFS. We convert to ext2 or ext4 with Voodoo/kernel.
Oh ok. Well maybe I missed something in the article then. It had said Gingerbread forward would be ext4. Either way, flashed samuri, things run great.

SGS II run on ext4. Maybe the official release it will run ext4, but I doubt it all the leaks are on RFS

Hi, so I installed voodoo lagfix but its slower then the one I was previously using so I'd like to go back to that one.
The one thing is that to get rid of it you have to flash the stock kernel.
Could someone provide me with the kernel for I9000UGJH2?
Thanks alot.
get it here

Do I have to reparatition? Will my info be wiped or just reset to the other file system?

it will be best to repartition as most of the lag fixes changes your partitions
Thanks for the help, I'm gonna wait out froyo, there isn't any notable difference in the two lag fixes just quadrant score.

I am using the newest cog Tom and would like to be able to use a kernel that enables oc/UV and the different lagfix options. Can anyone tell me how I flash just the kernel over the cog Tom?

i wasnt aware that unhelpful had created a 2.2 kernel?
so what you want to do is flash a 2.1 kernel into a 2.2 rom? are you sure you have read the dev forums?
If there it is a 2.2 kernel, just flash the stock 2.1 kernel with odin and flash the one you want over (sorry vague) but just search it
*edit*
Its on the cognition wiki

i know how to flash a kernel, but the OP stated they were on the latest COG which is 2.2. unhelpful's kernel is a 2.1 kernel. flashing a 2.1 kernel on a 2.2 rom will end in boot loops....it wont be pretty.
the only kernel that i know of at this time for us to use OC/UV on 2.2 is setiron's, and its a modified i9000 kernel.
rather than trying to get someone else that has already done the legwork on learning ODIN to respond, I think the OP needs to read...a lot
I have been reading alot and can't seem to find a direct description on how to do this.

probably because you havent provided enough information....
i will repeat.
if you try to install unhelpful 2.1 kernel on a 2.2 rom, it WILL NOT work.
so, are you trying to do this on a 2.1 rom or a 2.2 rom?
there are plenty of instructions out there, so you havent read enough.....there are really only 2 ways to flash a kernel. through Clockworkmod or through ODIN.....pick your poison.
If you flash cog 2.1.7 you will have unhelpfuls kernel version 1.7 but i prefer version 1.4.1 despite the lack of voodoo lag fix. It just worked better on my phone. Great battery life.
overclocking may not be enabled at first so read unhelpfuls first post first if you dont get it ask more questions.
If you flash a cog 2.2bx 2.3bx or 2.4.x rom then you are looking for setirons kernel. It has more advanced lagfix options but i get battery drain so the undervolt thing is useless. There is a way to fix it but its too much to explain.
All in all overclocking is mostly for bragging rights. On ecliar it was good using unhelpfuls kernel.
Setirons kernel may be very advanced but there are tradeoffs it being an i9000 port.

Quick and simple: Is there anything for I9000M that emulates Voodoo's sharpness fix for his 2.2 kernel on Gingerbread? This is the main thing stopping me from switching over.
Thanks!
Well if you have used speedmod for froyo and like the sharpness fix it uses then you can try out the testing version of speedmod for gingerbread here. Be aware that it's in early development so it still has a way to go.
Great, thanks for the info!
Hardcores kernel is for international i9000..so it might not work with i9000M..or maybe it does, but atleast you now know this

They work. A lot of M users use it with no problems.

Good to know I only had information which was written to hardcores kernel topic (...only international i9000 is supported, or something like that).

Hi All,
I looked all over for an answer to this. I'm running the stock leaked Verizon GB update and I was wondering if the ext3 format would apply or even be possible with the stock kernel. I'm extremely happy with the gb update and I'm completely dumbfounded as to why this isn't out yet? Skype works great and is the main reason I updated. Anyhow, thoughts about the ext3?
Cheers,
Rob

The stock kernels, unless it's a custom modded stock kernel, will not support the ext4 filesystem.

Cool, thanks for the answer!
A lot of conflicting info here and on rootzwiki.com. I just was asked by the play and trade guy to flash his captivate. All in trade for his pandoras battery and knowledge of its use. Basically fix my psp and I flash his phone. Ok I just want cm7 stable on here with a good oc kernel. Can I do like a mesmerize and odin flash a recovery and the. Flash cm7 and gapps reboot and do a kernel? What steps do I need to take. I see a lot about bricks in the captivate threads, are they easy to break? I'm told this o e is two years old. That would mean its probably ok with being able to get I to dl mode easy yeah?
Like I said alotta info floating around I just wanna do this right can a cm7 user break this down for me. It's an at&t phone if that matters.
Thanks in advance.

CM7 stable comes with an OC kernel. Just Odin in a kernel with CWM on it, then flash the CM7 zip.
Got a link to the right kernel to odin?

Flash the Glitch kernel as it OC's up to 1.7 ghz though I wouldn't recommend it.

I would say the Captivate is actually very difficult to brick, and going to CM7 has basically a 0% chance of a hard brick. As Aus_Azn points out, CM7 will overclock with the default kernal.
Install instructions (as long as you are coming from Eclair or Froyo) are here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Captivate:_Full_Update_Guide
CM7 discussion belongs here. Thread closed.
