Most ppl put no value in Quadrant scores. Does it feel snappy to you? No lag? Then I wouldn't worry about it. Scores can be miss leading by what apps you have and what is running in the back ground. Or maybe change your kernel.

Reboot and enable Voodoo from recovery. Even if it says it's already enabled I'd be willing to bet your quadrant score goes way up.
Thank you guys ill try it

so i went and enabled the voodoo...i didnt remember it was disabled..now im on ext4 and the score went from like 960 to 1600+ somethinq
yeah on ALL EDT roms, voodoo is turned off by default.
Heathen (jellette) likes to be safe and wants to prevent anyone new from freaking out by the voice or get into a boot loop, so it auto-disables.

Yeah much easier to do it that way. And it is just as easy to go in to the voodoo menu and enable it yourself. Hopefully if a person enables it their self, they will remember later to disable it before they flash somethung else.

I'm new too the whole rooting deal, but I know I want to. I already downloaded the one touch program or whatever it is. I was really just wandering about overclocking my cpu.
I've read that I will need to install a new kernel but I don't know which one. I just don't want it to change the look or operation of my phone. I like the touchwiz and everything,i just want to speed it up. Does any one know what I should do?
Also if I root will I be able to do the 2.2 update when it comes out?
Thanks for any help I can get.

As a newb myself let me try and help. First off take some time and do alot of research on rooting, flashing roms and kernals. Read, read and read. There is alot of info here. It is possible to mess your phone up if you dont know what your doing. Now thay being said...... Using ryanza root plus lag fix is probably the easiest way to root. If your hard ware locked,well thats another story. And if you want to overclock you will need a custom kernal, remember what I said about reading. Now depending on the kernal you may or may not be able to get the 2.2 when it rolls out. Just take some time and educate yourself, and for goodness sake please make nandroid before you do anything drastic.

Like greggory said, you should check to see if you are hardware locked (cannot access download and recovery modes).
To check:
1 turn off your phone
2 Hold volume + and - and power buttons
3 Keep holding until you see the vibrant screen pop up a second time. Now release ONLY the power button, still holding volume + and -.
4 Keep holding volume buttons until you get to the recovery screen. Then release.
If your phone continues to boot normally, you are hardware locked.
If you are locked, go to the Bible thread and scroll until you see the hardware locked fix. Follow the directions there.
The Bible thread should have everything you need to know about modding your phone.

Thanks alot, I will check out the bible.
And good news for me, my phone is not hardware locked.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Thats good its not locked. The bible is a great tool for info. I also read some of the post by bionix , involving custom roms. Check out there website. teamwhiskey.com. Just be sure you make a backup thru rom manager in case you mess something up. This is a awesome forum with alot of knowledgable people. Unfortunately Im not one of them....

It looks like JAC's OC/UV kernel would be the best for overclocking. Does that sound like a good assumption?
Would that change the way phone looks or functions, in terms of regular use like touch wiz?

I like the JAC kernel and no, it won't change anything about the way your phone looks. It'll just run faster
Great. Would you suggest the regular kernel or the voodoo one?
And thanks again for all the help.

I'm still learning too, although I know I'll never really dip into programming. I use Bionix 1.9 with Jac's kernal. I did have a problem with Pandora and the media player shutting off, but after adjusting the min mhz to 400, it hasn't frozen yet. I love this stuff. I just wish I could get an asnwer on how to flash some of the mods in the other forum like the clear notification bar. I posted in Q&A and never got a response. Too bad. I can't contribute, but I would still like to learn.....
So you haven't had any of the lag problems?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Ok, I guess I'm going with bionix 1.9 with JAC OC/UV voodoo. That sounds like a good tried and tested way to go.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
What is the difference between bionix 1.9 w/Jac's OC/UV kernel 1.1 and bionix 1.9 w/Jac's OC/UV/Voodoo kernel 1.1?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
The voodoo kernel has the voodoo lag fix already in it. If im not mistaken.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Alright. Now I think I'm going to use bionix fusion 1.1. Do I need to flash that before or after JAC's voodoo kernel?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
so the stock kernel isn't that good?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
From what I've read the voodoo kernel just has the added lag fix to speed up your phone more.

So is there any order to needing to flash bionix fusion and JACs OC/UV Voodoo?

Anybody can explain me how to enable JFS file system through ULK in Eugene's new kernel?
I have tried several times unsuccessfully, I toggled use JFS then my phone boots onto a loop, and keeps vibrating!
U didn't flash his kernel right.
Go to the dead horse thread.
Go to page 48 I think???
And a guy quoted the tutorial.
I used that after.my phone kept going into a bootloop.
But I also got rid of that kernel when my quadrant scores were like 400 less than voodoo.

i need a new rom. asop 1.1 is starting to get a little bit old for me. i would like 2.2.1, i NEED wifi calling, and NO voodo but the ability to use oclf lag fix. any suggestions? thanks in advance
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
If you NEED wifi calling then 2.2.1 is out of the question.
Also I would highly suggest you to use voodoo instead of OCLF. It is much more stable and even though it scores lower on quadrant it is indeed faster. Don't be scared of it .
So here are a list of suggestions
Axura
Bionix
Trigger
yea bro oclf sucks big time.. i recommend you to use trigger 2.8! ive been using trigger for a while now, and its the best rom out there in my opinion! dont be scared to use voodoo youll grow to love it =D
okay so if i stick with 2.2 are there any options for wifi calling? i looked at your suggestions and i like them but it doesnt seem they have wifi calling availiable. if they do are they built in or do i need to flash them seperately? if i need to flash it seperately how do i go around doing that?

With Trigger, I have an app called Bloater. Open it up and at the bottom you will be able to just press "Install" on Wifi Calling and done.
With Bionix I think you have to flash the wifi calling separately. You do that just like you flash a ROM except you choose the wifi calling zip instead.
alright cool thanks for the help, il think il go with trigger! does the bloater app come preinstalled?

It would seem as if everything is in fact NOT setup "perfect",lol
TBH - If the market is the only thing giving you issues I might try to push the .apk alone from the ROM itself. If all else fails re-flash the ROM and you should be good to go.
Good luck!

yup plenty of people are using it.. definitely seems to smooth things out.
So can this be used on ICS? I see where it's mentioned but doesn't specifically say. It looks interesting
Any word on the effect on battery life?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
I have it bundled in CounterShrike 3.0, and available as a download for PAC-Man. In both cases, it's the background service only and not the app, but the effect is the same. I'm quite skeptical of performance tweaks, but so far, this one seems legit. It does not help general performance. It does help anything that uses entropy...app lauching, task switching (including return to home), many list based loads (Facebook newsfeed as one example), and so on.
The add on version I have is generic enough to run on any ROM and device as long as the kernel supports init.d. http://androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390233485161005378
Edit: I've seen zero battery impact. If anything, it may be a bit better, but that's totally subjective.
I'll give this a shot
I've been running the flashable script version for a few days. It does appear to make a difference though I haven't done any hard testing.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Seems to make a slight difference only noticeable sometimes on inef dues. Antutu scores are the same. I think what I notice most is it being a little snappier between app switching. Hopefully it doesn't affect my battery life
I bought the app from the Play Store, but it deactivates itself every time the screen is turned off. Also, it's never prompted me for root access, so I'm quite skeptical that it's doing anything on my phone.

Is it Seeder by LCIS for 1.49? I may try and see. But I already flashed that zip shrike posted so I'd have to restore my nandroid and then try it
So, what about the article on the portal about these claims of improvement being false? Does anyone have any real proof either way about this or is it just a placebo? When really amazing devs not only say it works but also include it in their ROMs, it makes you think there's a little more to it. Just curious.
Quite a few reputable devs out there saying this does nothing at all that's it's all placebo.
Idk if it's this or something else I flashed but my phone will not go over like 550mb of ram. So every app I open has to reload kind of

They are both the same thing, you have the option of installing it as a script and let init.d start it or as an app..

K if I remember when I restore my nandroid i'll try it and see. I can see a difference but on faster/newer phones or AOSP Roms you more than likely won't see any. But after flashing that it's definitely different. Not sure if it's for the better or not since I can only tell with switching apps.
Edit: I feel like any tweaked rom is going to do the same. I just bought that app and it made literally no difference. Maybe the difference I was seeing was from the animations I flashed. Lol interesting. I also notice my ram is being used better without the tweaks.. What do the tweaks actually do?
I didn't notice much of a difference so I uninstalled it. And whatever you do, don't pay for it in the Play Store. Go to the thread in the OP and get it for free.
