I personally still recommended oclf as a way to improve a phones performance for a newbie or someone who is not ready to flash kernels or ROMs yet.
If you have an external SD card in, remove it, uninstall the ext2 tools, install them again and try the lagfix again. Once you get it to work, remember to undo it before flashing your first kernel.

I personally still recommended that NEVER use oclf. It's outdated, with very ugly install scripts, a plague to remove and nightmare to fix with a post flash to retrieve data (if you don't dare lost data it's ok).

I didn't have a problem using it, or removing it....and I have a feeling far more phones were trashed by people rushing in to flash kernels before they knew how then have been damaged by oclf.

The creator of the app left XDA for lots of reasons, very few to do with technical issues. Yes I recommended it as a simple way for someone brand new to android or sgs (as I was) to make his phone more usable.
You can try to use it again, or flash a kernel directly via odin...either way I hope it works out for you.

Yes, I suggest you find a guide that one of your modorators has put their time into to help people like you. Please next time look a little harder and read.

Of course. Rooting is the first step to make any modifications to your phone. What stock version are you currently on?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA
I can't say you need to be rooted, but it is needed for certain backup utilities like Titanium Backup. Otherwise, all you need is CWM
Sent from my CM9 ICS i897 Captivate
I suppose I misspoke. Root is not required, but is greatly helpful, and I'd suggest obtaining it first.
Sent from my glitched ICS Captivate using XDA App
I would say , root is highly recommended. But I think I seen a tutorial somewhere about flashing clockworkmod recovery on a stock unrooted captivate, or flashing a modded 3e Recovery to flash unsigned zip packages. I will try to find the link for you. But to backup all your apps and data, you will need root.

Here is the link for the modded 3 e recovery without signature checks if anyone needs it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909213
And I have a clockworkmod recovery zip for anyone who needs it as well

There are methods to root gingerbread, but they tend to be more involved then earlier versions of android. I correct my earlier statement that root is necessary. I'd highly suggest it if you want to back up apps etc, but it isn't required. I'd suggest downgrading to 2.1 or 2.2 and use the superoneclick utility. Supposedly this tool works on gingerbread but I haven't had any luck with it.

The easiest way is probably to flash Corn kernel, because you get the option to root in CWM. And you will have corn kernel, so it will also be easy to flash from there

If you want to flash a custom roms, flash back to stock, then flash a custom kernel via Odin, reboot to system, put the rom on root of sd card, reboot to cwm, do a nandroid backup, wipe data/factory reset, then flash zip from sd card. That's the basic of flashing. Search around in the captivate section and you will find your answers. There are so many topics about flashing roms. Most of the time the rom dev, posts detailed instructions on flashing his/hers rom from start to finish.
Almost every custom rom comes pre-rooted. No need to root once you flash the custom rom.
Also, if you want to save your contacts, you should do so before you flash back to stock, or before you flash the custom rom. If you want to backup all of your apps, then you will need to be rooted, and have titanium backup installed from the market.

Use link 2 sd ... Fast and easy ... But you'll need a cf-root kernel cause it need init.d kernel to mount your sd card 2nd partition

I have tried flashing various roms and have come to the conclusion that my phone is knackered. What do you think?
Symptoms:
(1) When I go into cwm to flash a zip the phone thinks the internal sd-card is the external sd and can't locate the sd card
(2) Sometimes the phone doesn't boot
(3) Sometimes when I boot the applications I have installed are lost
(4) Sometimes when I try to install an app off the market the phone thinks there isn't enough space
(5) If I flash CM9 it comes up with the Encryption error message
My Solutions that haven't worked:
(1) Flashing stock rom jvu/jvz/jw4 with s1_odin_20100512
(2) Flashing EZbase 4 and Darkyrom Resurrection
Does anyone know how to fix my phone? Is it possible to somehow restore my phone to an 'out of the box' state?
Thanks in advance
I started having problems with /sdcard, last week after flashing a CM10 nightly.
Flashed JVU as a test and everything is fine.
Now back to CM10, but now after I boot I go into "storage" and click "mount"
No idea what's going on but I'm functional gain.
When you reflashed did you tick re-partition

No offence but could it be that you flashed an i9000 firmware on your i9003? Your signature says you got an i9003 so I'm a bit confused now... I'm not saying you're stupid, I'm just thinking in all possible directions
Nah, i am using someone else's phone lol! Mine is an i9000!

If I turn the phone on about 20 times it boots. Now on android 4.1 and seems stable if I keep it on. Think my phone must just be getting worn out

So my ohone is rooted and I deleted some system apps and i dont even remember which ones so now i want to update and my phone wont do with ota so need a solution to this. Will downgrading to GB solve the prob...???
You can install the same rom again using pc odin.
I did that but didn't seem to workout
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium HD app
Got cwm recovery?
Didnt make a backup?
If you havent got cwm, flash a cwm recovery image (with a new kernel... Dunno what system files u removed so...) using odin or heimdall.
Next: flash the rom of your likings after a full wipe.
After all that: BACKUP (using cwm).
Goodluck.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
You dont need odin.find a safe kernel like philz or abyss then download the stock rom and follow the steps for flashing it(i dont know whether requires wipe or not!)
