I noticed that live video streaming doesn't work like on the stock rom or maybe its just my phone. All that happens is it will go to the page but not show the live streaming window, its just blank. I flashed back to the froyo stock rooted ROM and it works fine, can anyone explain why? Thanks!

This is general not Q&A but i'll give it a shot. You're probably missing either a few libraries (unlikely) or flash (much more likely). What you need to do is find out what flash you have in the rooted stock rom then copy it and install it onto the other rom, that should fix your problems. Since it's the same phone and you aren't posting it anywhere or trying to decompile/reverse engineer it it should also be legally safe.
Ok, thanks! Wish I wasn't a newbie then I'd know exactly how to do that....hahaha!

Just finished installing the official 2.2 release on my Captivate (problem free). Before installing I backed up everything to my SD card via titanium, then removed the lag fix, and did a hard reset / format using the dialer code, verified everything was wiped and all the internal storage was wiped clean (although MCR scripts and superuser didn't go away).
first reaction, THE LAG IS HORRIBLE. hoping it was a result of crapware, I rooted via SuperOneClick, reinstalled Titanium from the market, and removed all the ATT crapware, rebooted, and it is no better.
I've restored my apps and everything except facebook contact syncing seems to be working great, but the lag is awful! often I wait 3, sometimes 5 seconds before a screen click is even recognized.
are there any lag fixes that have been tested on, or at least suggested for the official 2.2 release?

I assume you are referring to the one used on 2.1, I don't remember the name, but it used MCR Scripts and was installed with an update.zip. once installed you ran MCR Scripts and "installed" the lag fix with 2 options, either 512mb or 1gb of space, and a third option to remove the lagfix
I ran the remove option before doing the upgrade

I thought I read that voodoo didn't work with 2.2, only 2.2.1
I'm running stock 2.2 with no lag. I formatted my external sd and that fixed my initial lag problem

If i understand you, you had lag problems after upgrading to 2.2, and then resolved them by formatting the external (removable) sd card?

I just upgraded and it seems very snappy to me. It's not my everyday phone anymore so I don't have a SIM or external SD in but from just fooling around with it for about a half hour it moves nicely! About to root now and remove the bloatware

That was solved months ago. Go to the dev section, download the 5.x voodoo + stock KB1 kernel odin file, and flash it on. Phone will take a while to boot back up, but will tell you it is converting partitions to ext4. Once it comes back, you will see the amazing speedup from getting rid of the piece of **** known as RFS.
Is there anyway I can get lagfix by itself? I have no computer so id just like to download to phone, put in root and goto recovery mode.

If its that much of a lag, then something didn't load right. I'm on stock 2.2 wirth no lag. Its just about as fast as oclf. But, if you read the [official] froyo update thread, people kind brush on what ideas to try. Most of them say, like I said, something want loaded right. Good luck.

No ones answering because a search with one word gives him the info he needs. He just refuses to read and wants the info handed to him on a silver platter.

Respect goes along way in these forums. How did you expect people to reply to this? Everyone understands you have no pc. Yelling is going to get you no where. The hour you spent waiting for a reply, could have been used to do a search for it, find it and do it.

Ok so....i found the
voodoo 5 stable for 2.2.1 yes I know I only have 2.2
downloaded it
renamed it
put it in /sdcard
rebooted to recovery with CWM clicked reinstall packages
Went through its process and said it failed..could not verify or something. Is this not the way to do it? I did it on 2.1 same way w/eclair approved voodoo and it worked just fine. And I apologize for getting upset its just a little tedious doing all this searching on a small phone screen.

Froyo uses 3e recovery I believe so it will not install any update.zips the only way I know of is using an alternate recovery...a kernel with 2e recovery or going the custom rom route like torch 1.5 or cog 4 in the dev section which use the new froyo
And for your no computer issue...i suggest you find mcdonalds or a neighbor and use the wifi and download one of those custom roms directly to your phone that have a lagfix included with root and no bloat. I do this all the time when I am in the field. Just some suggestions I hole they help and I understand your frustration.
I made the edits for this to use on EC01 mesmerize.
Per the norm, I am not responsible if you jack your phone up trying to use this. I have done nothing to this other then edit it per dfgas's instructions to use on my Mez.

You also need an EC10 source Kernel

OK... So, let me get this straight... This is what I need to do to flash this:
1. Disable Voodoo
2. Flash the stock Mesmerize EC10 image
3. Flash the EC01 radio using Odin (Flash it to where? PDA? Phone?)
4. Flash the Evil 3.3 rom
I feel like there's something missing here, or is there a kernel built-in?
Flash the radio to pda in ODIN.

I flashed this but I'm stuck in a boot loop and when I have gotten it to boot it constantly force closes different apps... Do I need to flash a kernel or is one included? I think that's where I'm stuck.

All I did was flash ComRom first and then flashed Evil on top of it... It was easier for me.
I'm a newbie when it comes to this. But I learn quick. I messed up and didn't put the nvda. Instead I flashed the rom manager clockwork mod and so on. Everything was good I had eaglesblood, I was happy. Today I flashed cyanogen. Now I'm happy with the rom but I don't gave ANY Google apps. I have the GAPPS but I can't reboot my phone to flash them.

I am attempting to follow the "Newbie's Step-by-step" guide for the Showcase on Cellular South. I have rooted my phone and downloaded the files needed to install RomManager and Clockworkmod Recovery (I haven't installed everything yet, still getting the hang of my root file manager).
Before I continue on, I wanted to make sure that I have the correct version of Voodoo for my phone. I am using a stock but rooted 2.1 os that comes standard on the Showcase. I followed the link to the Voodoo Kernel thread to download the zip file but kept getting error messages from the dropbox site. After a bit more looking, I found a Showcase Voodoo kernel. The name of the file is eb11_voodoo.zip
Is this the correct version for my phone?
I have been reading these forums for several days looking for this answer.
I would assume that since I would be replacing the kernel of the stock os that it would not matter what the original os version was, but I want to be absolutely sure.
Also, is it possible to use the Voodoo kernel while maintaining the rest of the stock 2.1 os? I really just want to be able to use lagfix and voodoo audio controls.

Small world im from brookhaven too!... But to answer your question that zip is for EB11 2.2 not 2.1. I am not sure right off what kernels are available for 2.1. I upgraded to 2.2 with the modem and used OTB 1.6 kernel when i did my phone. You should try pnp v1 for showcase it is a pretty safe and basic rom for staying close to factory and gives you 2.2.
According to cell south's Facebook page, they are suppose to release 2.2 for the showcase by the end of the week if you can wait. If not you will need a dj20 2.1 voodoo kernel.
Sent from my SCH-I500
You should probably just wait until cellular south releases 2.2, then use a voodoo kernel. I don't know of any voodoo kernels for 2.1 that include the audio controls.

I think I would wait for Phidelt82 to fix the new 2.2 build and flash it. I have never cared for, or been happy with CS released upgrades. I always give them a shot but end up flashing other roms within a week due to the disappointment in their versions. Just my two cents.
