Installed lagfix, ended up losing wireless data and broke the market.

So I installed the once click lag fix on my Captivate and it said everything worked successfully but the first thing I noticed is that my contacts were all gone. They came back but this makes me think data was lost in the process. After the lag fix install I could no longer use wireless data and I cannot install apps from the market, they always fail with the message "Download was unsuccessful, please try again".

I ran the uninstall but still cannot use the market or wireless data, there may be other bugs as well but I am broken enough right now I have not gone into further testing in case this is a known issue. Does anyone have any ideas on what went wrong and what I need to do to fix this?

And yes I am an idiot, no I did not make a backup first.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kgk888:
Wrong forum. This is for the Galaxy S

Samsung Captivate

Second, wrong lag fix thread. This is CFLagFix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crashingsux:
This is the lag fix I used, version 1.8. I thought this fix was for all Galaxy S phones including the Captivate? Are you saying I should not have used this fix on my phone, or are you just saying that I should discuss the problems I had applying this fix in a new thread unrelated to this bit of software I downloaded from this thread?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
From what I heard people from Captivate had no problems with it. But not sure. Try to read the thread from point where 1.8 was released.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crashingsux:
I did read the thread. Another user mentions having an issue with the market not installing apps after using it but for him it appeared that an uninstall fixed it. I have not been able to find anyone else mentioning having their wireless data borked. Now I can only get data from wifi.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sl8125:
You must of flashed the radio. Use Odin reflash the rom. Cflag fix does work on captivate. I use i9000 rom but on stock rom i dont know. Word of advice just say you have galaxy s next time. You wont get flame for it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] IntenZeD:
Beutiful widgets is eating up my internal memory every time it updates (every 60 minutes) my internal memory is full soon.

Theres 326 posts, i read the first 150 and didn't find anything about this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FrezoreR:
I applied this patch today, everything seems to work fine, except market.

Whichever app I'm trying to download gives an error: download unsuccessful.

I'm running JM6 and applied the default with ext3
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bouzoubaa:
JM6 + CFlagfix 1.8 : quadrant score is amazing but too bad i'm stuck with an error message "Memory full" .... tried to resize the partition to all different sizes with no luck :( anybody has a cure for this error message ??!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FrezoreR:
But market work as it should for you?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bouzoubaa:
Yes ... tht market is working just fine. Maps and internet over 3G are all working fine ... my only problem is with memory full error message.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aridoasis:
if i install more apps after doing the lag fix, do i have to do the lag fix again or just resize?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mistwalker:
I'm using 1.70, and it worked great for the first week. Now I'm experiecing lags again. Slide to answer locks up, I have wake up lag, sometimes the ringtone sounds for 2-3 seconds, but the caller hears 5-6 tones and then hanging up because they don't think I'm at the phone. When unlocking screen I usually get a heavy lag etc etc.

I'm going to try to back up rom, then install 1.80 and see if it resolves any issues. Been reading through this thread, and no one except me seems to have any problems after the lagfix install.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crashingsux:
Thank you, good advice on both counts.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tschmidt84:
lost my AndroidID using CFLagFix 1.80 on JF3; clockwork recovery got it back... this seems like a serious bug.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] IDtheTarget:
1.8 worked for me for awhile, then I started noticing that my phone was doing "odd things". Then Thursday morning when I woke up, the phone would not boot. I had to restore from the ROM backup I did before applying the lag fix.

I think that I'm going to wait on Samsung's Froyo update. It's due out sometime in September, and I am hoping that they will address the lag issue as well as the GPS issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xsoft:
Hi,

strange, but I also have "JM2+root-with-update.zip+ClockworkMod".

Alter modding with EXT3 all goes wrong :(

(contact, sms, setting, icon position .. all gone). Settings (like no-music on boot) are not saved. Etc etc. It look like switching /sdward/sd for /sdcard.

Recovery from backup worked.

I was not lucky with 1.80 and my SGS. Maybe later.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SydneyBlue120d:
Same here, Italian Galaxy S with JM6 release, I wonder if Resizing Partition could resolve this :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
Resize it to smaller should get rid of that message :) A future release will automatically do this, hopefully :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SydneyBlue120d:
Thanks a lot, the device is a lot faster thanks to your fix ;)

What is your recomended size range? I'm still getting the error resizing between 400 Mb and 15000 Mb :confused:, it seeems that resizing doesn't fix the issue :(

Thanks for your support :o

Edit: I had to uninstall your lagfix, I cound't get rid off the low memory error, now the device is slower but usable :(

Let me know if I can help in any way to define the issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LeDiable:
Is 1.80 compatible with the newly leaked Froyo I9000XXJPC rom???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manniakk:
it is, im currently using it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SebyM:
Worked for me like a charm, using 1.80 on a SGS, speed improvment is visible from the 1st second.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LeDiable:
Now heres a problem that I'm facing.

I successfully installed the 1.80 version on the JPC i was using before, scores were around 1800-1950.

I downgraded successfully to I9000XWJM7 using the instructions given in this thread and checked my quadrant scores .....it was averaging at around 900!!!

I started to install the CFLagFix 1.80 & to my surprise after executing the exe, it disabled the install part and enabled the resize and uninstall part. I tried to uninstall but it gave me an error saying the disk was full, I tried to re-size the disk so I could reinstall it but it still didn't change anything.

Now, I thought installing a new firmware(or rather old) might have taken care of uninstalling the prior 1.80 but no, its still there and its giving me performance worse than before.....Please help guys!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] masr1979:
Did you wipe before you went through with the downgrade? sounds like the image is still there. I would enter into clockwork recovery, and do a factory reset/wipe. If that doesn't work maybe deleting the cflf folder inside /dbdata may open up enough space.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LeDiable:
Aah! That worked mate...Thanks a lot!!! Cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] coggster:
Just curious as to how I would go about trying this version suggested? I am quite new too all this so the basic nature of the original fix was great - I am happy to try more but don't want to be trying this in an incorrect method.

I am having issues with some downloads from the market not installing correctly and when I click the icon in the app list (not the icon you would expect to be shown) it force closes and whichever launcher I am using at the time does fc (I tried standard and launcherpro just to check it wasn't specific to one launcher). Apart from this market app issue I love this fix. I do also have occasion freezes and reboot type incidences but nothing I can't deal with until 2.2 gets its official release.

I would prefer to keep this fix and not uninstall but the app issue is causing me issues - mainly that lite or free versions work but I then purchase the same paid app and this won't work.

Thank you for your time and all your work.

Chainfire,

when you're back from vacation: is this going to get update any more?

or are you ceasing development in light of curio's, ryanz's or any other fix?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
Well, I first have some catching up to do regarding work. After that I may update. As for stopping the work in favor of other fixes, only curio's is a candidate.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jurguh87:
market failure

hello all,

I've rooted my sgs with the method of backfire very good tutorial he wrote and after that i used this lagfix to improve the speed of the phone but after installing the CFLagFix 1.80 the market doesn"t wrk anymore im using the 2.1 update1 xjf3 rom maybe you have an answer

Thank you

greets from nl

Jurguh87
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] frriction:
Try with ext2
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jurguh87:
hey,

I tried with ext2 and is working really good even faster then with the ext3 get a quadrant score of 2100 and the market works perfect

thanks for the quick reply

Jurguh
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jurguh87:
Hey,

I finally fixed my phone and it works really good but i think its a bit slower this time then when i used the ext3, so looked for the differences on a non rooted phone without any fix and i saw that it has 1.78 gb free intern phone memory (not the sdcard) and i only have 260mb free space. its a big difference and the only one. is it wise if possible to resize the partition for more free space and does it get faster or slower? cause the quadrant score gave 2100 and with the ext3 only 1600 but i think its a bit slower then before esspecially when i open a lots of apps? hope you have an answer thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kodea:
solved, nevermind
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] neldar:
@Chainfire:

It does not completely uninstall with version 1.80.

userinit.sh and playlogos1 remain in /system/bin/.

Solution could be the following playlogos1 script on last reboot of uninstall:

#!/system/bin/sh
rm -f userinit.sh
mv playlogosnow playlogos1
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jurguh87:
hello,

small question: can i use with this fix also instal the apps2NAND fix or isn't that wise thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AV1985:
I'm not sure if anyone can help. I want to uninstall this but can't because it is saying I don't have enough free space. I'm guessing this is in ext2? How do I get the free space?! Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ufuuu:
Hi all,

Does this lag fix change the kernel as supercurio's voodoo lag fix?

And what does it change actually?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Calcvictim:
I had chainfires lagfix for a month, today got a low memory warning message. I think what happens is that one of the databases or something doesn't get moved and out of the 300 megs free or so the space get used for the database.

Long story short I believe the lagfix works only if you do not install any apps after the lagfix is applied, the reason I say that is because after I uninstalled the lagfix(the uninstall worked perfectly) the phone speed hasn't changed one bit.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g0c:
not true, applied 1.70 with ext2 (not worth trying with ext3 since i'm still on 2.1) and installed LOAD of apps after that and the phone is a rocket, even my Quadrant score hopped up to 2148 !

edit: to rephrase -> maybe it didn't uninstall as it should considering the few posts above ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Calcvictim:
I am not sure what you're saying, are you saying that because the fix continued to work for you means that it worked for me when clearly it did not?

1)the file system(ext2 or ext3)is not related to the Android version that is running, the benefits remain the same(ext2 is faster but has no journaling therefore is much more prone to corruption).

2)The quadrant score serves is not an indicator of the phone's speed, right before I uninstalled the fix my quadrant score was the same as it was the day I installed it even tough the phone speed decreased.

3)The fix uninstalled fine because running "df -h" showed no loop devices and my free memory is displayed correctly, read the post above again, it is referring to a script that gets left behind but is not used.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] phatsua:
guys, if i did a wipe from recovery did that overdide and uninstall the lag fix ? i check quadrant score and i get around 1000 score instead of 2000.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kamui:
The Application always crashes after it starts to reboot on Windows 7 64Bit
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] exabart:
Fantastic speed, but few hickups as well

I'll add my experiences...

W7 64-bit UK

CFlagfix 1.8

JF3 stock FW (not sure if it is actually branded or carrier locked, Vodafone NL)

Rooted using RyanZA OCLF (because it's so easy)

Installation of CFLagfix went flawless (during reboot, CFLagfix was Not Responding until process completed; SGS had the SGS logo continuously on the screen, no intermediate reboots)

What went well: :)

Speed gains were immense!

Gallery, Market, starting apps: it's a different phone! Finally I get to see what the HW can do!

Installing / removing apps is lightning speed now

Paid apps are no problem, they work well

What went not so well: :(

Lots of apps from market don't install (e.g. Autoscout). During process, AppBrain FC; first uninstall of AppBrain does not help. OS says app is installed, but in Launcher it shows com.android.xxxx and android logo instead of app logo, and starting the app FC the launcher.

Lags return partly after couple of days; installation of AutoKiller does help a lot

Phone freezes frequently when receiving calls; e.g. take/refuse call slider does not show up, or shows up but does not respond, or responds very slowly. I missed a few calls due to this.

ChainFire, keep up the good work, really admire your efforts!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kekelingling:
hello,my SGS have flash the CFLagFix-1.01, can i use CFLagFix-1.8??

PDA:I9000ZSJH1

phone:I9000ZSJH2

thanks !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kekelingling:
- Get ADB Magic (linked from first post)

- Drop the EXE in the same folder as ADB, CFLagFix, etc

- Connect your device in USB debug mode

- Open ADB Magic

what is ADB magic?

i can't search this soft in XDA

i need it , thx
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] etking:
What happened to this project? Would be great to see an ext4 Version with journalling enabled, since with Oneclicklagfix, on my SGS every second boot takes more than 10 minutes due to filesystem checks, especially when using quickboot. And voodoo is not yet an option for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ingineru:
Hi guys,

I have CFLagFix 1.8, it works very well; i was wondering about uninstallation, if i uninstall it do i need to run something else?

Also, a factory reset does erase the fix?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bapsack:
factory reset????

hey there is this thread still alive???

is this project still alive???

I have the same question as my folks above:

does a factory reset erase the fix?

seem so for me as my quadrant score dropped to 900

I also couldn´t uninstall the lagfix after factory reset

but is the Nand storage still blocked now by the old lagfix which i had before the factory reset???

greetz the bapsack
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
Development on this project is on pause, due to curio's lagfix (voodoo). Watching how that works out, because it is technically a better method.

Regarding factory reset, I'm not completely sure. A flash to a different firmware does _usually_ remove it, but not always.

It is possible that the usage of the partitions is disabled in such a case (both factory reset and flash) but the data files remain. You can check this with the "mount" command. There will be mounts linked to /dbdata/cflf/... and /data/cflf . If these mounts do not exist, but the /dbdata/cflf and /data/cflf directories do exist, you can safely remove both of those folders.

Of couse, advised would always be to uninstall the lagfix, but strictly speaking it is often not necessary to actually do it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Melkone123:
Don't know anything about other lagfixes but just installed this. WOAH. The phone is completely different.

GJ!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] exabart:
Well, I had to try, unfortunately. Update of LauncherPro ended me in a reboot loop (FC of .acore), so factory reset was only option. After reset, I have "1,86 Gb" free on apps space. So it seems that lagfix was undone (phone speed is also slower, as it seems...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] N82master:
Tested this. Just wonderful speed BUT. Firstly, I lost my settings, contacts, sms and so and secondly my access to android market.

Uninstalled it and still habing the same error on the market..

I am on the original rom of the phone xxJM1.. please Anyone can help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tkalli:
Reinstall CFLagfix 1.60, as I changed the CSC and had to reinstall apps.

Quadrant Score: 2141

:D

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tgcardoso:
Hi Guys,

Can you confirm to me if this lagfix is compatible with Brazilian version (GT-I9000B)?

Thx in advance,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LauCass:
CFLagFix.exe expired since September 26th, it's necessary to set a computer date before September 26th to continue to use it!

Is it plan to have a new Beta version with a later expiry date or is it possible to disable the expiry lock without changing computer date?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jamallj:
no wonder why the lagfix stop working for me..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
1.90 posted. It has some weird issue with JPK it seems though. First boot during installation it hangs, then you have to manually reboot it after a few minutes, and then the process continues and all ends up fine... Haven't found the root of this problem yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mopral:
1.90 works fine for me on JM8

Do not see any difference except that I have 270MB free instead of 255MB

What is the changelog between 1.80 and 1.90?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Astug:
I'd also like to see the changelog.

And, is it safe to try this on JPK or should I hold of till you find the issue?

Thanks.

EDIT: I just tryed on JPK and after it creates the filesystem, it does it usual steps, then "Checking for mount success", then I get the message Operation failed! :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kalpik:
+1 for opensource! I'd really like to know what this does on my device, before I can try it out! Thanks for your efforts though :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DrIGGI:
Oh come on :D

He's a "Senior Moderator" ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ClownShoes:
I think you can rest easy at night knowing Chainfire is not going to intentionally mess up your device!

If you do a bit of reading up, you will see that this a guy who has done more for the customization and improvement of devices (particularly Winmo HTC) than most on these Samsung Galaxy boards.

With the greatest of respect Ryan, you've released a great one touch fix for our devices (as credited in the first post), but seeing Chainfire is now on the case has cheered me right up :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
Well I said perhaps in the future, but that will depend. I'm not a big fan of sharing source code (that means I have to clean it up first :P) and I'm certainly no fan of the GPL.

If you're worried I may be doing something intentionally malicious, well that is your good right. I do have a very good reputation to uphold though ;) As for doing something wrong by accident, yep, that's certainly a possibility.

I'll think about it, but even if I were to open source it, it won't be soon (going on vacation in a few days), and it probably wouldn't be under an OSI approved license...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
No disrespect to chainfire, that's for sure! I meant more in general, and no matter how good he is, he can always make mistakes. ;)

Plus, if everyone kept their fixes to themselves, we probably would have no lag fix at all, although that is not really relevant since it's up to him. What is relevant is that someone might be able to take chainfire's fix and make it even better - which means chainfire gets a better fix, and we all get a better fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
No cleanup is necessary! Feel free to just zip up your dev folder and upload it - put a license of 'I will sue you if you even look at this!'. No GPL required! :D

Edit: It's also a bit weird to hear that you're no fan of GPL, when your fix includes a ton of GPL utilities? ;) Although I prefer BSD personally. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
I actually prefer BSD to GPL as well, especially for smaller projects, hence the comment.

My primary concern at the moment is that the code used for this is based on code for other projects, it's a bit messy, hardly documented, and in a language/compiler I don't often use. While for someone like you that may not matter, those things actually do matter when you're looking for a job and your prospective employer is taking a look at all the stuff you've posted online. While that is illegal in a lot of countries, I still think it done more often than not ;)

As stated, I'll consider it, and if I do, it'll be posted here. For now, this has gone way offtopic, so let's stop the OSS discussion ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slitch:
I used this tool with a fresh jm5 but I was having alot of issues so I restored the phone.

The phone was reporting that the videoplayer & sync needs to be closed and I cant restart those programs or services.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
Well in theory I'd think it'd actually cause less wear-and-tear on the internal SD than just using RFS, due to the buffering in ext2. However, I'm not an expert on the subject, so I can't really say.

Interesting. I guess we should figure out when this message appears, how much space is needs to be left on internal SD.

As for removing the fix, there is no automated way.

However, the following might work (USE AT YOUR OWN RISK), but will reset the folders you used back to before the fix (i.e., it just uses the "backups"). I have not tried this procedure, but it should work.

- Get ADB Magic (linked from first post)

- Drop the EXE in the same folder as ADB, CFLagFix, etc

- Connect your device in USB debug mode

- Open ADB Magic

- Navigate to /system/bin

- Select "userinit.sh", right click->edit in notepad (convert)

- In the newly opened notepad, empty the file (ctrl+a, del), save (ctrl+s), close notepad

- Wait +- 10 seconds

- In ADB Magic, menu->adb->reboot->normal

- Wait until the device is rebooted

- Your device should now be working normally again, verify this before continuing (it will still give low space waring in your case)

- In ADB Magic, menu->adb->reconnect

- In ADB Magic, delete: /system/cflf/ directory , /data/cflf_image file, and /data/cflf_mount directory

- In ADB Magic, menu->adb->reboot->normal

- Done

As stated, untested, but that should revert to your original state, and allow you to do the fix again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darksnarfer:
Just tried it, worked like a charm! :)

Anyway, I missed the horizontal scroll for the partition size at the top. Found it after the fix was done.

Any chance to explain which things are modified in case I want to undo the lagfix?
