Hi, I installed the lag fix and it increased the speed of my phone lots so big thanks to you RyanZA :D

I did end up stuck with only the original font though, which was plain and boring so i looked around and found loinenavant's topic on changing fonts

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=752200&highlight=fonts

The 2nd way (noob way) using command prompts and stuff scared me off lol so i went the first way.

Root Explorer (as suggested to use) is a paid for app which i couldn't get so i found Super Manager from the market. You can tick Root Explorer in options to give it power to change system files and use this as your copy and paste tool.

There are thousands of fonts at www.dafont.com or you can use any .ttf file you already have.

Follow the instructions in loinenavant's topic including BACKING UP the original fonts. Then its just a case of finding a font you like. A word of warning though....try not to go too fancy as the letters seem to shrink and fancy fonts can be hard to read

Who cares if you're stuck with one font as long as its a good font :p

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Phandroid:
Same error here.

BTW the icon of the app is still a bit too small.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Jim_99:
I finally got around to installing this. Works well!

I was initially confused when I saw the list of options turning green and I assumed the fixes were running automatically (with GREEN indicating that they were complete ... Doh!)

The scheduler fails but I have sent you an email on this one

Overall great stuff and easy to use. My Quadrant score is now up there with the best of them
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sickboy1:
Well i got it sorted it was my sd card i had to demount it, then it loaded with know problems
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Yeah, I've seen quite a lot of these.

I couldn't work out what the problem was, but it eventually hit me: you have no external SD card in your phone, right? :D

I'll have a bugfix for it up shortly...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Okay, version 1.5.5 is up in the first post which will fix up the problem! :)

Does anybody want me to build some type of font installer for the people with font issues with firmware JF*? It would give a list of all installed fonts with the option to select one, and would then copy that font over and reboot. Any takers?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] yabbas:
Hey Ryan

Not sure if you've listed any freespace requirements anywhere - I've got 1.03GB free according to the OneClickLagFix; however it refuses to take me further.

How much freespace do I need before it'd proceed?

Also - I'm not afraid to use scripts to get better results. In your opinion, would the oneclicklagfix suffice, or would I be better off using the 2.3 script?

Cheers

Yaz
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
The min requirement is to have 200mb + enough space to fit all your data. I think that comes out to a max of 800mb of used data for this lag fix to install.

My 2.3 lag fix should overcome that, but it does seem to be a bit buggy. You probably want to try out Tayutama's new update.zip version. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] PlanetJumble:
That font selector would be great. I think it will take me a little longer yet before I choose the best possible target firmware for a complete flash. Maybe even until a stable Froyo is available.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Troy1:
Yes please. I tried the copy/paste method described earlier in the thread and it would not work for me. So any assistance you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mpena0689:
lag fix no longer working after master reset

hi im having trouble reinstalling this lag fix on my stock samsung vibrant. my phone was having issues and i had to master reset my phone to fix the problem. when i master resetted i still was rooted but i no longer had the lag fix. so i went back and downloaded the app. i follow the instructions again but when i click on oneclicklagfix V1+ it keeps telling me that "you already appear to have another lag fix installed! (/system/bin/playlogos1 less than 5kb)"

and if i try to click on undo oneclicklagfix V1+ it says "you do not appear to have a lagfix installed! (free space on / data matches /data/data)

i dont know what to do how can i fix it or remove the previous lagfix and reinstall this new one.

or is there a way to reset my whole phone without the lagfix????
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Your bootlogo is all messed up. Use the handy included bootlogo restore function. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] etking:
The deadline scheduler should be included into the bootscript.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Muaddib69:
Thx RyanZa, i'm a returning user :). Tried your very 1st attempt and 'am very impressed how things are improving.

Just one question, now says 362 Mb inside internal storage... it's ok?

I've made standard installation with default values...

NOTE: What a scary loooooong-time until samsung logo appeared... first, it was a black-black screen with buttons lighted and later... it was the light (logo) and I breathed again...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zimphishmonger:
Just thought id throw this in....its not disk scheduler, its CPU scheduler.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MadBob:
OK first thanks for the speed-up, pre lag was 904 post lag was 2254.

Then I finally found a way to connect to kies, it is to do with file names with over 16 character extensions eg filename.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

This let me finally connectto kies and this offered me a firmware update which I completed successfully (JM1 I think) now the phone refuses to boot correctly took me to a black screen, recovery mode did nothing, however factory reset and clear cache data allowed me to boot the phone.

Now I have looping force close for android.process.acore TwLauncher and com.android.phone

Now I have a suspicion that the lag fix on moving stuff to a buffer file has broken something here, and now there is no way to run any applications or anything, anyone got any ideas? or have I completely fuxored my phone.

is it possible to get around this by flashing the firmware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Pretty sure it is the disk scheduler. Or at least, you can have different CPU schedulers per block device, which makes absolutely no sense to me. :)

Flashing the firmware fixes everything. I believe recovery console and choosing format will fix it too.

On a slightly related note - if you have no font file, your phone will not boot! It cannot be fixed with a data format either, and you have to reflash. :(

So this font installer thing is going to need quite a bit of checking.. and I'll be throwing on a 'EXPERIMENTAL' tag on it too. It might mess up your phone more than you'd think a font could! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Muaddib69:
(bummmmmp)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] septlc:
thanks for the tool.. the change is quite noticable, right ?

i did upload two videos with the results of the fix.

http://galaxyss.blogspot.com/2010/08/20-increase-speed-famous-one-click-fix.html

respect !!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MadBob:
Problem is recovery and wipe data/ factory reset, wipe cache partition. has left me with force close looping errors on boot and the phone is unusable.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ziggy_ua:
Hi,

I'm a new owner of this phone,so pls don't be mad at my qusetion..)

Should I have a micro SD card to install this app? As far as I understood I will only lose my backrounds but all the settings and programs will remain as they were-am I right?

Thanks a lot in advance)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] etking:
You dont need a microSD and you will not loose anything applying the fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RogueCheddar:
Same here, but not even the buttons were lit! Freaked me out a bit, but then the "S" appeared after about 3 minutes and all was well.

Benchmark went from 895 to 2277 now, but much more importantly: Market flies instead of crawls! 7 seconds to load my download list, instead of over 90 seconds previously. Other apps that reference the data (TB, Apps Organizer, Astro, etc) also seem noticeably quicker now :D

Thank you Ryan!!

Samsung Captivate (AT&T, stock ROM with bloatware removed)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Okay, 1.6 is up in the first post now!

It has a nice new tabbed layout for the main page.

It has the 'Font Installer' for people having problems with custom fonts. It seems to work fine, but it's not very heavily tested, so it is marked as experimental. It should be able to recover from anything that goes wrong, but if it doesn't then your phone will be non-bootable, and a reflash will be required (Happened to me, and I needed to make a phone call right then. :( That particular problem is fixed now though.)

So anyway, if anybody could test it out and let me know if there are no problems, and I'll drop the experimental tag. :)

EDIT: The Font Installer should only be used by people with JF firmwares who cannot use custom fonts. Newer firmwares can use custom fonts already, and don't need this. Although it still works. :)

If anybody has a good resource to download android fonts, I could actually hook it up to download and install fonts from the web then. I believe any TTF font may work. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Troy1:
How do we find our firmware type and thank you very much!:):D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jmerrey:
Hello

I am using a captivate I purchased about 5 days ago. After installing the app, I ran the root, rebooted into the console, applied the fix, ran the app again, installed the tools, ran the benchmark program, and i am getting identical results. I went back into the lag fix program and the "root your device" was disabled, so I know it was installed. When I click on that option, it tells me the device is rooted, do I want to force anyway. Plus, it asked me for permission to give superuser status after I initially rebooted, so something must have worked.

I figured maybe it didn't work completely, so I tried to unroot it. After rebooting into the console, I got this error:

E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] odyssey61:
It will be under Settings > About Phone or you can dial in the code *#1234# on your phone dialer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Troy1:
hello, my firmware says 2.1 update1 baseband t959UVJFD. Is this the JF that RyanZa is referring to? Thank You.:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] xarth:
Did did anyone on a Vibrant try the font selector yet in 1.6? I don't wanna be the first one :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] PlanetJumble:
OK, thanks for the quick implementation. I guess I will take the risk, since I asked for it. And when it goes wrong, I am already three quarters convinced of flashing JM6 anyway... currently backing up my 196 user apps... ;)

EDIT: And there I have Rosemary back, how I missed you! ;)

Thanks RyanZA, you are truly a good spirit for the Galaxy S community. Here you have a few bucks (not specifically for the font fix, but I take that as a trigger for the well deserved donation).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MomijiTMO:
Gah. Yesterday I installed 1.5.4. We're now on 1.6.0. :p

Thanks for pumping out these fixes Ryan!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] xarth:
Thanks for testing...Setting mine now.

EDIT: And it worked like a charm...THANKS Ryan!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Muaddib69:
this app is updateable as whatever other app? just install over previous?

Thx in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MomijiTMO:
The lag fix takes up 1.5Gb of internal storage. Your apps are stored there so you haven't really lost any space. [Read the thread.]
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Muaddib69:
thanks for your answer
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MomijiTMO:
If you're wondering how much space you have, open the app (OCLF) and click on "Check Free Space".

:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Val3r10:
Thanks for this one-shot-app!

Where the EXT2 partition is build ? What size do you advice or what are the tradeoff we should take care of ?

I've read about other lagfixes which chose:

- trailing part of the external SDHC (which is always locked, this way)

- half of the 2gb RLS partition, so the app storage is reduced to 1gb

- part of the internal /sdcard 6gb memory

- ...

Could you please spend some words about ?

Thank you again
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jvpde:
Thanks a lot! Phone is so much faster now. Is this future proof? Will OTAs break anything?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MomijiTMO:
LOL no. I seem to be installing a new one every day.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Roy Ngan:
Thanks for the apk, RyanZa. It works. Just a suggestion, you want to consider to put what is MANDATORY/optional and you may put the remark "perform this" for newbie, because newbie may think that by installing the apk and tap on the first top most button will have the job done.

I think we saw a few similar posts at here stated, "i had that installed, executed the program and my quadrant result still showing 800+, please help"

We appreciate and understand this apk because we went through the manual way :)

Just a suggestion
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jmerrey:
I agree. I feel like I did everything correctly, but obviously I didn't, and now my phone is stuck in some strange limbo between rooted and stock I guess...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] cdog1984:
Thanks Ryan! You are amazing. I ran Quadrant prior to the fix and got 851. After applying the fix I have a 2253!! Keep up the amazing work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] floepie:
How did this font thing get sorted out? I'm just curious. :) Is the font selector located in the same place in the settings? Is the engine that switches font the same one used in stock?

It seems the latest quadrant scores for this APK rival that of the 2-3 lag fix, despite this being a "v.1+ fix". Was something done in the most recent update(s) to bump the scores a bit?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lokhor:
Just wondering if you guys saw: http://briefmobile.com/cyanogen-demonstrates-quadrants-flaws

it says that Quadrant scores are being inflated by the lag fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] odyssey61:
I dont believe that this is new and its always been known that Quadrant can be inflated. As a basic test it is still useful as an indicator of speed. And the comparison of I/O speeds before and after a lagfix are very clear.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ziggy_ua:
Thank you for your help!:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] hizbulsings:
I have the same 'problem' the internal memory is draining, only 17% left. Does it mean i won't be able to install more apps?

been
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Yeah, this has been out a while. It's crap.

What Cyanogen demonstrated was not a flaw. He put quadrant into a very very fast ram disk, and believe me, if we could run our entire phone out of a ram disk and not lose data, we would be doing that, and it would be awesome. Cyanogen's "flaw" is in no way a flaw in Quadrant - Quadrant is just measuring how fast it can read/write files. If the files it is writing are in ram, then yeah, the score will be very high. Quadrant is doing it's job just fine.

If I were to put Quadrant in a ram disk running on my PC with my DDR3 ram, the score would be even high - and that would be correct, since my PC is faster than my phone. Cyanogen and whoever wrote the article are either very confused about what this lag fix does, or they have no idea what benchmarking means. Either option is a bit sad.

That said, it is possible to make a benchmark that would show the EXT2 fix with a lower score than stock -- writing a very large file. However, since the phone's normal operation is perfectly in line with the quadrant benchmark, the benchmark is a fairly good representation of actual phone performance in day-to-day tasks.

I'm guessing Cyanogen is a bit too elite to post on these boards though and fully explain the quadrant flaw for us, even if I do have this wrong. *shrug*
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Maverick777:
Edit: Nevermind. Found the solution.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
This lag fix installs to the 2gb RFS partition, and app storage is reduced to whatever you set the slider to. It is nice and safe though, and you can install/uninstall at will. :)

Awesome, good to know it works for you! :)

No need to find out. If you can't install fonts the normal way, then this font install option will get around that for you! If your fonts already work fine, then there is no reason to use that option! :)

Not good... that means the included non-rooter doesn't work for the captivate. I wonder why... if anybody has any more details on this, give me a shout! I don't have a Captivate so I can't test it directly. As a workaround for now, if you want to unroot your captivate, head over the the captivate section of XDA.

Old firmwares try to copy the font before the EXT2 is online. So they can't find it. The new option in the app manually copies over those fonts for you. It is pretty straight forward as well, so I might upgrade it to allow you to point it at any TTF font on the web and install that one. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Jim_99:
The scheduler is working now (v1.6.0). Yep, I had no external SD card

Donation heading your way
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Totally not necessary.

Thanks a ton to everyone who has donated anything, anyway! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] stickfinger:
Great work RyanZA! and super fast updates too! I only just learned how to switch the font files yesterday and now you've gone and added a font switcher and made my new found knowledge useless LOL

As i stated in a post yesterday, www.dafont.com is a good place for .ttf font files. They have thousands and no registration is needed, just click through the pages, find a font you like and hit download :)

I'm currently using one called Sony Sketch which looks quite nice. I tried one called Bn3RD which is supposedly the closest you can get to the Droid Font but that came out small and was hard to read. I don't mean to sound cheeky with all the hard work you've done so far but is there any way you could maybe add a font size changer to the font switcher? it would open up opportunities further for everyone :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
I have no idea how to do that. :D

I think the DPI tool could do that? But it messes up everything else too...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Orillian:
Ok, it might be due to the time of nite but I downloaded the 1.6 and checked out the font app...and while I don't have any issues with the font's not on the version with the problem I was kinda interested. I only see 3 font's pop up on mine.

default

Lemonade <---One I downloaded as a test.

Choco cooky

the rest

Cool Jazz

Rosemary

do not show up!

Now how would one use this portion of the app to add say a new font not already downloaded to the phone?

a) where would I put the new font?

b) any reason I only see 3 of the 5 fonts currently installed on my phone?

O.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] fane1:
I should have done this 4 days ago but it doesnt matter.I just want to say thank you very much for your aplication.It was the only way i had my phone with the lagfix installed because i tried the other ways and didnt make it dont know why well maybe i know because i dont understand the way commands works etc.So i think u deserve a beer or a soda whatever u like.Thank you :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Imperium:
Trying to figure out this lagfix for a friend of mine with a Galaxy.

1. Is it possible to unroot while lagfix is enabled? if so, will it affect the lagfix? (I'm aware of the unroot option in the application)

2. If the lagfix has been applied, and an official update is available, will i still be able to update the device without removing the lagfix? (Will the update overwrite root and the lagfix?)

I must admit i didn't read the whole thread (50 pages) and google couldn't give me some results than other people asking the same questions but with no answers.. so i'd be pleased if someone could still answer those questions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Troy1:
broken pipe

I made the mistake of setting the size of the ext2 to its max,so when I tried to undo the lagfix I received the broken pipe error. Trying it a second time,seems to be working now. i was wondering tho,should we set the ext2 size to approximately 80% of the max? Would that eliminate the broken pipe issue?:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Naw, broken pipe issue is unrelated to anything else. For some reason, opening a root session closes instantly instead of letting the app send commands. 'Broken pipe'. ;)

Not really sure why it happens.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ringoman2k:
hello, ryan

great work, i have a question though, because my android market was acting strange, i did the android market fix. but i needed to reset my phone, so i whiped it by going to settings/privacy/ reset etc...

after that i reinstalled my apps, and the lagfix, no when i try to do the lagfix, it says:

"You already appear to ahve another lag fix installed! (/system/bin/playlogos1 less than 5 kb"

but when i choose undo it says:

You do not appear to have a lagfix installed! (free space on data matches /data/data)

=-=

But the thing is the only thing i installed is your lagfix :D before the reset,

so how can i remove it and redo it , so it will be detected correctly and can be reinstalled/removed etc.

Kind regards

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] terpsych:
Hello.

I have a problem with this great app.

I downloaded it onto my Samsung Galaxy S from Market.

I started Root Device 2.1 by clicking "start lagfix" - successfully.

Then I entered recover console, selected 'apply sdcard:update.zip' by hitting home button.

After reboot there are no root permisions. SGS is not rooted.

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks for help.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] SyRiOCoP:
i tyr yo use the new fonts restore function and i get an error like "no space left on device" is not true but now i have the default font damaged, if i select this i have no text at all and i must remove lagfix to use choco font...

someone can send me the right default font?

thank's
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RyanZA:
Ouch... how can you not have enough space on your device to even install a font? That really has to be causing a number of other problems too.

I'll put in a check in the next version to make sure you have the 10kb or whatever that the font requires -- but you really shouldn't be putting your phone into that situation. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] SyRiOCoP:
but i have free space on device, phone is new....

i do this if you want to test, i have the version 1.5.4 and all running ok, only the font don't work well and i get the version, 1.6.0

update (uninstall + install) --> font fix --> error -> font damaged

that did the trick :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Val3r10:
Many thanks again.

May I ask why such small partition (and not the 6gb internal storage... same speed) ?

What's the size you advice best ? Is 512mb acceptable ?

Thank you for your work
