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?
what lagfix did u use

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.

Yes hello I can read. I have NO COMPUTER to run odin on. Is it really that hard to not be a smartass and help someone out???? Really??? If Im still asking obviously im overlooking it. ONCE AGAIN I HAVE NO COMPUTER SO ODIN IS OUT OF THE QUESTION

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.
Looking for applications in the appbrain, I found the application Motomizer, and from what little I We understand, is to improve the performance of Motorola phones, someone know her? or they may see the following link and see if we can help our XT720 something?
Greetings!

If the MIUI ROM has taught me anything, it's that this is definitely Korean
I guess i have seen the english version. In bunch of apk. I downloaded over internet. I i get it i will share.
But will it work? 'Cause I really want better performance
I have contacted the developer and he said work in the future in an English version ..... days? months? years? ever? In the pictures you see text in English and Korean.
I personally have used this app. It allowed me to EASILY change my stock clock on my XT720 from a max of 600Mhz to 1000Mhz. It has a bunch of handy stuff included....like one-click download and install of OpenRecovery, a bunch of fonts, changing boot animations, and downloading/installing frameworks. After my wife saw the increase in performance I got, she made me install it on her XT720 as well....I recommend it!

This is exactly what has happened to me. I installed the app and used the one click optimizer, it crashed and boot looped my phone. I no longer have memory card access within android or usb access. The phone restarts itself every couple minutes...How did you fix your boot looped phone?
Thanks
If you don't have memory card access, then you probably can't get into open recovery. Try anyways. Hit power button and hold volume up. If you can get into OR then just reflash your backup. If not, you may have to flash stock sbf, through rsdlite.
Ok thanks, will try and flash stock sbf.
*EDIT* I just tried to flash and it failed at the beginning of the flashing process, telling me "flash process failed 0x7100."
This for the motorio not for Motorola milestone xt720.
If flashing fails you may need reformat sdcard.

Be cool dude. Don't react so out of control.
It works fine here. I tried it on both khal MIUI and WanHu. It works fine, nothing wrong with it. A few things don't work as they are for the Motoroi, but the other things do work as that's for the XT720 (the dev of Motomizer told this too).
Too many people are downloading this app and getting bootloop I will try this out on the builds yoou said it work on some people have motorio xt720 and are in this form let me ask does everything work on that app on those builds if so great but if everything doest work you can't say it works okay.

So I had GB bootloaders and 2.3.4 installed on it. I was browsing through the forum and really liked Raver's Redux rom, but totally blacked out i have to change bootloaders back to Froyo ( still no idea how to ). So my phone got into a bootloop. The problem is, i tried to flash the phone back to GB rom, and was doing it using ODIN, and brother plucked the usb cable off during the flashing process. Now everytime i try to turn it on, it has a yellow triangle that says" Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. PLease select recovery mode in KIes and try again. " Tried Kies, no use. The same screen appears when i try to get into a download mode, tried usb jig . same screen. WHat should i do from here? i am out of ideas.
OK, i flashed Stock GB rom with Odin, even the dwld mode didn't appear on phone screen, but ODIN read it and i got a connection in with it. Now its on a bootloop again. It goes into the recovery menu (3e). Says E:Failed to mount /data (INvalid Argument). What should i do from here??? THanks
NVM , I got it working now But i still want that Redux rom My question is : how do i get back to Froyo Bootloaders? A specific instruction would be really helpful, what to tick and not on ODIN , etc... Thanks
Flash kd1 or Odin ravers kc1 with all 4 files. You'll have the froyo bootloaders. There at guides out there if you search. I'm in my phone, so I can't link then. Sorry.if you have trouble, let me know and I'll walk you through it

You did not mention what you exactly did. I mean... what are those "needed things"? It's not just enough that you start with some stuff and begin flashing. You should have proper knowledge & accurate files & extremely careful while doing these type of tasks.

Hey! The names of four files is important. They need to be set at right place. If odin is still detecting your phone while you tried the Download Mode, may be this will helpcheck your starting file names)
1. OPS :- BENI_v1.0.ops
2. BOOT :- APBOOT_S5670.....
3. PHONE :- MODEM_S5670.....
4. PDA :- CODE_S5670....
5. CSC :- CSC_S5670....
You can try this (at your own risk) b'coz froyo also have 4 files with their correct order mentioned above.
Hope this helps...

I've been working on rooting my phone 4 a couple of days, thought I had accomplished all I needed and then realized that I was still s-off. my ultimate goal is to downgrade to froyo and then upgrade with unrEVOked to Jellybean. The biggest problem I have is that my windows pc is flipping out on me and all I have is a mac. I also have a newborn and can't even begin to try and figure out vmware or dualbooting or anything. My wife's already having a hard time with me trying 2 finish rooting my droid. I've spent hours reading everything I can (still very much a noob, don't understand terminal, c prompt, or flashing) and have probably been just really lucky getting to where I'm at. Other posts I've read are wither windows only, s-on, or not 2.3.5. Help, I'm desperate!! I really don't want 2 have 2 pay the guy on FB either. Any help at all is greatly appreciated since I know how valuable time is 4 everyone.
Thanks in advance!

Why do you want to lose S-Off? You should probably wait for some time until you can donate some time to this, distractions can be extremely annoying on OSes like Android.
Mostly because I've been having issues with a couple of apps not being able to work because of s-on. Maybe you're right though, I need to take some time with it. Got my Windows back up but it still doesn't help since my usb connection with my phone's not working. Tried multiple cables, renamed usb slot, downloaded most recent drivers, but nada.
