With ext4 the normalt numbers is in the 18xx range. If youwant higher then you need to use ext2.

Reason it won't allow ext3 is if your kernel isn't configured to allow ext3. These checks have been added to make sure you don't start on a fix and then on reboot it ****s up your phone.

Which fix did you use before?

Is important to know since else i won't be able to supply a bat file that removes the file in question.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tayutama:
Reflash of the phone should remove all traces of the fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
What if you reflash then restore your nandroid backup?

Also, this lagfix definitely doesn't affect battery temperature. It's the same as it was before, at least for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zipppiz:
Ok, thanks a lot for your reply and great work with this fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boldman78:
many thanks works gr8
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] haiku:
So far this fix works great.

I wish Samsung would implement similar solution in the upcoming 2.2 rom, SGS could become the fastest beast on the market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ludrun:
I installed the lag fix yesterday, and everything is looking good!

Got one issue though, as it seems i can't connect the phone to the pc anymore. It only says USB-connected and I dont have the option to mount the SD-card.

Any tips ? Guess KIES dosn't work (hate it anyways).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mdalacu:
Disable "USB debugging" !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ubernewb:
ran quadrant on my rooted/bloatware-removed vibrant and pulled an 815 ... ran your awesome fix and tried quadrant again, this time 2235!

you sir, rocked my effing socks off =]
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] razer_rulzs:
size...

does Tayutama's lag fix n root also restrict the user to 1 or 1.g gb of space....

is there any where it dosent restrict u?...

N also how can you restore bak to ur factory firmware..... including the carrier native apps......?

I dont hav the galaxy YET! still wating for Three australia to get it!.. but these information would be really helpful..

thx..:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] razer_rulzs:
froyo 2.2

can any1 tell me the score they got on there stock froyo firmwere......

is there a big speed boost like in nexus one?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zentobi:
Im i the only one who got that "allow root privilege" error when i run the bat file?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tayutama:
Atm you will be restricted to using 1.5 GB but planning on making a zip where you can deflect the amount of space you want to use, but that will be about away.

About restoring back to stock firmware you can read some of the sticky topics.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zentobi:
It works now... aaaaand wow!! 2186 in score.. its a monster ! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tbrouwer:
Anybody have any ideas on how I can get my 1.5GB+ space back after uninstalling the lag fix? Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fatpound:
I have just installed samset 1.9e and one click lag fix 2.3 and I'm experiencing alot of lag when flicking between homes screens, has anyone else experienced this and does anyone have a solution? Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tayutama:
When you install the fix via the included file (either RyanZA' or mine) then it should give you the space back minus what space new apps have been installed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Donald Nice:
I have a problem with mounting my externel sd since i installed the fix.. If i connect my SGS via usb and mount the volume only the internal sdcard is mounted. Not my external.. Do you also have this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gouken3x:
Flight modus

Is it better to turn on the flight modus while applying the lagfix?

I am asking cos I want to know if something could go wrong in case I get an incoming call while the lagfix runs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shaolin95:
Just did this yesterday with the OC 1.2 and now I get 2540 Quadrants! haha love the big number and it indeeds feels snappier :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DvTonder:
Phone is dead after reboot. Will have to reflash :-(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
That is by design. :)

Under 150mb or so of free storage, and your SGS would pop up a big warning about disk space, which is annoying.

The rest of the 1.7GB of your data partition is being taken up by a large file with an EXT2 virtual filesystem inside it. All of your applications and data are going into there. So when you install a new application, your 215mb free storage will not decrease. Instead, the space inside the big file will decrease. You won't be able to see what your real free space is though without a special app. I might make an app where you can check the free space, or maybe someone else will. There are probably apps which do it already on the market somewhere. You are looking for the /data/ext2data mount/partition.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Any chance for a log?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Not normal, no. Weird.

Strange... installing 1.0 first won't help you though. It must be a bug somewhere that is causing it. 865 quadrant probably means it did not install correctly. Check if you have the problem copying libraries.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Zilch25:
Installed fine on my captivate, though I've got low diskspace and nothing will install from the mark. Just hangs on downloading =(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kemal_ob:
oh okay then..thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Just running it now,

I have had a couple of FC Windows come up while copying data across. Is this to be expected?

Now the screen has gone blank and is non responsive. Should I wait?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kennethpenn:
Still installing on my Captivate. Taking a lot longer than the last fix. Getting "mount: Invalid argument" in my CMD prompt. Phone turned black. Still on "Copying data across. This could take a bit of time." Also had just about all my apps Force Close during install.

Hopefully I didn't software brick. :(

Edit 1: Screen turned back on... normal lock screen over TWLauncher showing in background. Still stuck on "Copying data across. This could take a bit of time."
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kwart1001:
Nice work, thanks!

All went well so far. I didn't had lag fix before on my SGS and I'm running JP3.

I only reached around 800 in quadrant before this fix and now I'm reaching 1931.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Yeah, it makes a copy of all of your data, and then proceeds to steamroll over it with a EXT2 partition. Running apps can suddenly find their data gone, and will crash. Upon rebooting they should all be happy again, but that is why this version is currently in testing. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vascariz:
Just wondering, it may go without saying, but do we have to install the superuser.app? Or is it included? Just couldn't find mention of it in the requirements or in the run instructions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
I am at the same place here too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Rebooting now with screen still black.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vascariz:
Interested in this query as well!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Looks like you probably did. :(

I'm guessing you have a firmware which has a mount command that somehow doesn't support loopback or something similar. Or it could be something else entirely. What version firmware and device are you using? Maybe we can track down what causes that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Zilch25:
I'm modifying the createlagfix.sh to create a 1.5GB partition instead of a 1.7, hopefully that will rectify the out of space issue, at least temporarily.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kennethpenn:
How long should "Copying data across. This could take a bit of time." take? I've been stuck for 10 mins.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Superuser is needed so ADB can run the script as root. Is there a way to root without installing superuser?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Yeah, looks like its crashed. Going to flash again to JM2 and try afresh.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rocketpaul:
i would like to know also, maybe 2.2 could hit 3000 lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Flango:
This lagfix did it's job on my phone, stock Quadrant score was 1004 and after the lagfix it was 2267 =D

Thats over a 100 % increase in performancy, 125,79% to be exact in my case =D

Thanks for this fix =)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shaolin95:
I read a comment that while ext 2.3 gives higher quadrant, ext4 actually gives higher real world performance.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tbrouwer:
I installed the lagfix with Ryan's 2.3 script, then uninstalled it with his unlagfixme.bat, and now I am short over 1.5GB of space that I had earlier ??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] foomanjee:
I'm having a lot of issues with this. I've got a Samsung Vibrant (T-Mobile US), and 9 times out of 10, the SL4A app doesn't show up in the app list, however the sl4a directories do exist on the filesystem (scripts, resources, etc).

When the SL4A app DOES finally show up, trying to use ext4 doesn't properly work. It does correctly load up the ext4 kernel modules and create the filesystems, but when it goes to create the "real" ext4 filesystem, the app crashes, leaving the phone in a dead state, since none of the files exist anymore.

This makes me have to flash clockwork recovery and restore my backup.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
Jp3 (froyo) with Lagfix 2.3 compared to i9000tgyjh1 (2.1)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tayutama:
Download the file called: Fix_Space.zip and run the included bat file.

Will check for file and remove it if present... Just make sure you aren't running the lag fix before doing so or you will need to reflash.

Download the file: sl4a.zip and do this.

Run update.zip like before and then do the steps below

Put phone into debugging mode: Settings->Applications->Development->USB Debugging

Attach usb cable between phone and computer.

Run the .bat file. It will install sl4a to /system/app like the update.zip should do.

Then you should see it and there shouldn't be any problems with running the fixes.

(Note i only had someone testing on the Captivate before i released update.zip files)

So the only thing froyo got better then 2.1 is the CPU score... oh well it's an alpha but still :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] foomanjee:
Well, I've got the SL4A app showing up consistently now, but in order to do so I have to install the root and noroot zips. But now I'm trying EXT2, and I'm running in to the same issue. After the real filesystem gets created, applications start crashing left and right, and this time the display just went black, with the buttons lit up on the bottom. Completely unresponsive.

I'm going to let it sit for a while, but I'm willing to bet that the app crashed again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BlazerRazor:
Have you all seen cyanogen's latest tweet? It is pretty interesting.

From his twitter account;

Pretty interesting results...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tbrouwer:
Thanks!

however I get this when running the script...

C:\Users\tbrouwer\Downloads\Fix_Space\Remove_File>adb shell su -c "/system/bin/s

h /sdcard/remove.sh"

/sdcard/remove.sh: 6: Syntax error: "fi" unexpected (expecting "then")

C:\Users\tbrouwer\Downloads\Fix_Space\Remove_File>pause

Press any key to continue . . .
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Davith:
Quadrant score means nothing to me. However, this lagfix definitely makes the phone faster so it's all good.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BlazerRazor:
I agree, but it is interesting nonetheless.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anndalis:
Signed up to the forum just to thank you guys for the great work ..

keep going and wer all with you..

We supported this lag fix on our IT forum and nearly 30 members so far are using it with no issues. most are using the Middle East/Arabic ROM I9000JPJG8

My score 2138
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
It really is easy to cheat at Quadrant!

The difference is, we'r not cheating. If we could run our entire phone on some kind of mythical 'safe RAM', and we had 2GB of this 'safe RAM' to use - I would have a fix out for us to use the mythical 'safe RAM' to make our phones super fast.

As it is, ram is very limited, and obviously it's gone when you power off. It makes what he is doing a total cheat, since it can't be used in every day use.

Our lag fix is different - it gets 2000++ scores, but can be used for everything. So he is totally, and completely, off the mark.

EDIT: The APK fix is coming along very well, and will hopefully be available tonight or tomorrow. It really is just 'sideload APK onto your phone, click around in the menu, and the phone is fast'. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tayutama:
ok... try this then...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tbrouwer:
Perfect, thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BlazerRazor:
I was not implying that the fix we have running was related to the cheat, I just thought it was interesting.

Keep up the fantastic work! The easy APK solution sounds just great!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fatpound:
Anybody???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] foomanjee:
Just tried it again, and once again while creating the "REAL" filesystem, the display goes black after about 30 seconds, and the phone is unresponsive.

EDIT: Just adding that when the display goes blank, the 4 bottom buttons stay lit up, and don't turn off.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] noc215:
When I uninstall the fix, I can't seem to boot up. I have to remove my battery to power off, and then boot recovery->delete user data-> reboot.

It finally boots up after doing so, but then i get a bunch of nonstop FC's. This isn't the first time this happened... I'm skeptical about doing the fix again because I don't want to have to reflash everytime I want to uninstall (I was uninstalling so i can try the newer version! T_T)

Edit: I'm using the captivate I897UCJF6
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siberslug:
2-3 bricked my phone . the only thing it does is light the keypad. how do I get back
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] foomanjee:
This is what was happening to me. What I ended up doing was running it on a clean system, then restoring everything via Titanium Backup. This worked. I'm now successfully running ext4.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
The lagfix is best done on a freshly flashed firmware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] frankencat:
Consider starting a new thread. This one is getting confusing with all the different versions and whatnot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fredphoesh:
Lag is definitely NOT fixed!

Hello guys,

Ive tried 2.1, 2.2 and now 2.3, and really, I am not impressed. Still my wife's 3gs makes my galaxy s look really sticky at best, and at worst, waiting for 10 seconds to end a phone call, or the same time to initiate a call is really not ok.

I only have 3 pages on launcher pro, have very few widgets,

1/ pure messenger widget

2/ animated clock widget

3/ Weather forecast + weather widget

4/ GTasks

5/ some folders by Smartshortcuts

No live wallpaper

Tasker and Widget Locker running in BG

These delays in response seem more likely when I just unlock my phone. Once it has been unlocked for 30 secs and I have scrolled between screens a few times, it seems faster.

Are people running Task Killer software, anyone having NO response delays?

Tx

Mark.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dckiwi:
I don't have any delays and phone is faster than my wife's 3GS... :)

I use 'autokiller' though - note: this is not a task killer, it just raises the threshold for when android should naturally start killing apps. I recommend downloading it and experimenting. Task killers are generally a no-no, but the builtin task management system needs a little help (hence autokiller)

cheers.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xtrememorph:
I'm running TasKiller, works fine with me, add few programs onto the ignore list and add a Taskller widget button on the main screen that shows you the balance of your ram and also act as 1 click auto kill all the program that is not being set to ignore.

On the side note, using widgets usually will slow down the phone.

Without LauncherPro and Live Wallpaper my phone is typically 200M Ram free, with those running i left with + - 150M Ram free.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vascariz:
Nice to see stock is close to RyanZA's fix!

Or am I reading this wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fredphoesh:
Hi there,

What widgets/launcher are you running?

I dont know how it could be faster than a 3g, maybe as fast, but my experience of iphones is they have no lag at all.

Cheers,

Mark.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thmlwin:
hello,

I am using lag fix 2.2.1 with ext 4.

I want to install font that cannot show in my phone.

Before this lag fix installed, I put my font by using type fresh and Andexplorer application by targeting DroidSansFallback.ttf to my new font.

But now I found the error, is " Error remounting ", " Could not remount / system"

If anyone know to fix that problem, please help me.

I am not familiar with Linux and also scripts.

I am waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] NeoXTC:
I find that when I first apply this lag fix or mimican or other lag fixes. The phone flies at the beginning. But after installing some apps etc etc phone becomes sluggish again ALTHOUGH through quadrant it's still fast....

phone sluggish = takes long time to open apps, takes awhile to go back to home screen are some of the few "sluggish" moments.

*sigh*
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
+1

I find Autokiller adds to the OS's ability to manage apps once they are in RAM.

It might be semething else. I have been using lafix 2.2 since last Thursday and the responsiveness of the phone hasnt changed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arcticsilverfox:
Ran into an issue today.

I applied the fix a few days ago, and everything seemed great.

Today, I pulled the battery/turned off the phone, and after rebooting, none of the apps I installed from the Market works. Everyone one of them crashes. I lost all email settings in K9 (for example). I can uninstall and reinstall them, which works again. After I turn off the phone, the same problem occurs again.

Does this happen to anyone else? I noticed that apps I directly installed from apks are still fine, only ones that were install through the market are screwing up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheKrayn:
wow...i just used version 2.3 of this...

before i wasnt even sure i was really affected by lag...ok the quadrant benchmark was really slow at the IO stuff...

so i decided to try this out see what changes...if i didnt like it i could allways uninstall it or reflash...

but im impressed...my phone is much faster now and i see now what was meant by the lag (i had a iPhone 3g before...so it seems i was too much used to a laggy phone)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Marcopololo:
Hello,

I have install Tayutama 2.2.2 lag fix with JM2. Install is OK but with quadrant my benchmark is 872, less high without lag fix. I have test with ext4
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tannerswe:
I tested with ext4 and got 893. A little low I guess.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fredphoesh:
EXACTLY!

quadrant is fast, the phone is terrible.

IMO the quadrant scores mean NOTHING in the real world of using a phone, at least nothing that I can detect just by using the interface/apps.

I keep on hoping "this flash" will be the last until froyo, but they keep on becoming unusable.

Mark.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RyanZA:
Lagfix won't fix stupid! ;)

Taking awhile to go back to the home screen means you have a widget running that is doing a lot of work every time it displays. This is the widget coder's fault, and that same widget is probably slow on all android devices.

Yeah, same experience here! Went from iphone 3g to SGS, and thought it was so much faster. Then I put a lagfix on.. and you realize just how fast a phone can be. ;)

It makes it pretty hard to use other Android devices though... ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tayutama:
I'm at work right now so can't provide the tools to test if it has mounted what it needs to mount.

RyanZA: wanna provide them with a bat file and how to run it so they can check mounts?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fredphoesh:
I just restored using Rom Manager to a backup of 2.1 or 2.2 before upgrading to 2.3, and updated all my apps, used Titanium to restore some I had installed since then, and what do you know, my phone is running FAR better than with 2.3... and with ALL the same apps, widgets, configurations running.

Hopefully this will not grind down to slo-mo in a few days ;)

Now gonna test Maps

Tx Ryan.

Mark.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gouken3x:
Does anybody know if the lagfix is a background process or does it harm if someone call during the lagfix runs.

Anybody?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
It certainly hasnt affected any phone calls and its not an application rather its a buffer between the file system and memory as I understand it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gouken3x:
So theoretically I could even make a phone call during the oneclick lagfix runs?....at least till the handy reboots ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Why would you want to the lagfix only takes about 10 minutes in total and then it does a reboot automatically.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gouken3x:
In case you get an incoming call :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] odyssey61:
Its not worth the risk. Put it in airplane mode while running the lagfix. Simple:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] liquifire:
Just wanna say a big thank you... I feel like I am using a totally different phone after installing this...

Good job!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] speedweed:
Tried latest update.zip from Tayutama.

Didnt work on my JM2 phone.

The older update.zip worked fine. The first lagfix. (MCR Scripts)

This one just gets forced closed when trying to run.

Ive tried ext2 3 and 4, no luck. Reflashing JM2 now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
Hi, I have been reading on this fix but two things in specific bug me.

1. Is this truly compatible with x64 computers? Meaning can I install it from a x64? Been reading a lot of people saying installing from x64 gave them a whole array of issues. Is this true?

2. Does the fix really corrupt the file system over time? Meaning...the longer I use it, the more chance that files will start having errors and eventually my phone won't be working since it will be full of those file system errors? Is this by design? If so, is there a way to remedy it or another lag fix which doesn't corrupt slowly (even if its a tad slower)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yaocheng:
hope it make sense to you :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
Sure on the 2nd thing? This topic alone has a lot of people complaining it stops working over time. . .
