Need help understanding android. - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Can you guys explain to me why my phone is freaking fast while im just running GB 2.3.6 ALL STOCK (kernel, rom, no mods and no lag fix )
The things i just did is freeze all bloatwares using titanium backup
Is bad or good?

i heard a few comments early after 2.3.6 realeased that rfs was faster. i would like to see a benchmark using bonnie++ comparing rfs vs. ext4 on both kj1 and kj6.

My phones performance increased drastically when I removed all of the bloat off my phone (that I safely could). Ram being used went from 230-ish down to 160-ish.
Though that is still a high benchmark for no tweaks.

Finch what all did you remove ?

Phone running slow

Seems like my captivate has alot of lag even this I have the one click lag fix. Any suggestions? Thanks
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
oclf is not needed. If you are running onix or speedmod you just have to go into clock work mod recovery and enable lag fix and battery mod and bam! Thats it! Look in development for more info on this.

Can I install this kernel through rom manager?
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
You have a few options. You can install a rom with the kernel already added which to me is the easiest way. Just follow the instructions on the roms page. You could also place the kernel on the root of your sd and and use something like sgs kernel flasher from the market. It allows you to pick your kernel and flash it.
Look under development stickies and look for how to install a custom rom. It explains it better than I have. Also, backup all data and apps. Use titanium backup and look up how to do a nandroid backup before flashing.

I would suggest to stop using ROM Manager, as it sometimes causes issues with 2.2 and later ROMs.

no... rom manager causes problems with kernels that already have CWM built into the kernels (like all of the customs)
rom manager uses the update.zip method for cwm. which causes problems when cwm is already in the kernel.....
Newbie Question.

Have not used a custom Rom before, but I am also running stock with enhancement and OCLF but getting 1800 scores on quadrant...
What else have you done to your phone besides the purpleliscious or was this rom enough to get you to 2600???
And how is your battery life???
Thank you!

Overclocked?

Hey guys this is definitely a noob question and I hope I'm asking this in the right place, but I rooted my phone (super one click ) even overclocked to 1.25ghz, but what does that mean I know it's supposed to make the phone faster but what else? Sorry about my ignorance any insight would be appreciated.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Makes your phone faster, better performance on games and drains battery. I recomend you to at the most overclock it to 1.10 but you should get the bali voodoo kernel by drhonk and you wont need to overclock it.

Ok, but I'm not really sure how to flash kernels or custom roms is there a tutorial or guide here I could go over ultra noob here

Night and Day Difference After Recovery Reset

Hey ladies and gentlemen, I thought I'd share this piece of info for anyone that's unhappy with his/her Infuse due to performance/bug errors on the stock rom. I recently was feeling the same way until I did a full restore back to the stock build through recovery. This changed my Infuse experience 100%. My battery lasts about 2-3 times longer, and the phone has Zero lag. If you're having the issues I was after getting it stock from AT&T, I'd suggest trying this before becoming totally po'd with the phone. I'm not entirely sure what this fixed, but I did clear out the dalvik cache along with all the other info. Hope it helps!
Probably un-crufted RFS. That filesystem is known for performance degradation over time, hence Voodoo Lagfix for ext4 conversion.

So you are running 100% stock? And it has better battery than rom's......I dunno
Explain more. Like you did flash back to with ultimate unbrick or what

I have no experience with the custom Roms for the Infuse, but it's running faster than my old Nexus S now. Also, there was no flash involved. I just did the default recovery image located on the stock phone.
How'd you get to that?

Essentially, yes lol. I just wanted to put it out there though, because it really made a huge difference and may help out all those people with GB thirst because of performance and battery issues.

You will need to provide more information for people to be able to help you. Can you at least tell us what ROM & kernel you are using?
Rom stock 2.3.6

We're pretty much running the same stuff. I'm on a stock ROM with bhundven's subtly modified kernel. I'm using version beta 2d, currently, but I've not experienced any lag - scrolling or otherwise - with any of the versions I've run.
Are you running anything that's possibly eating a lot of CPU and/or RAM?
Go to the home screen
Hold the "Home" button down until the "Recent" window pops up
Press the Task Manager button
Is there anything running?
My free ram is 152 average
I thinky this was cause nandroid backup... :-\
Maybe I'll will redo it again
BTW my phone is debloated too

Yeah, if you did a backup then maybe a restore, it's possible something restored that is causing the issue. If you start clean, make sure you do a factory data reset before the install, then wipe the cache partition and the Davlik cache after the install. Once you have the ROM on, flash the kernel, then debloat. Double-check after that to see if Voodoo lagfix is enabled. Once that is done, see how it's working.
Does The backup had save my settings right?

Good question. I know it saves user data and apps, I think, but I've never done a restore so I'm not 100% sure. I want to say yes, but I need someone with knowledge and experience with Nandroid restores to chime in here.
I'll try it when i get home ;-)

I tried restore in CWM,
after that,
it's still lagging :/
Can you please provide more information then, as best are you can?
Did you flash any tweaks, themes, anything else?
If the phone is lagging still, even after the restore, then you might as well load a new rom. Do it from a clean wipe.
nope,,

Increased ram?

Is there a way to increase the ram on my phone? I wanna increase it so that my apps can run faster. Right now, they lag a lot.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
no, it is not possible to increase system ram.
but there are other options - like flashing a fresh rom and converting the filesystem to ext4. From there you can uninstall a lot of the extra programs that come with the carrier ROMs. And there are a few tweaks you can install that also speed up the performance of the phone.
Have you done any of this yet?
i've flashed Valhalla,adrenaline shot v14 and deleted some stock apps.but its still lagging
