Hey guys, shoild i use voodoo lagfix
And how to install only the lagfix NOT with thw kernel
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

voodoo lagfix will convert your file system to ext4 and make your phone faster. It is built into the kernel though, so there is no way to install it without installing the custom kernel that includes it.
Not sure what you mean by thw kernel, but most custom kernels that include voodoo lagfix also include cwm recovery.

So what's the risk of flashing a kernel

If its a kernel for this phone, there really isnt any risk.

Can i flash a kernel with cwm5 and lagfix with this app? Like this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21487855

Aslong as you are on Gingerbread, you can use Kernel flasher to flash that kernel. That would be the recommend kernel, if not the only one really.

tnx bros

Hey Jules... I noticed the four threads you have started all seem to be questions and you are starting the threads in the general section. I want to give you the heads up there is a Q&A section for you to post in... in case you are unaware.

[Q] Odin Bootloader Anyone???

I have been looking everywhere for a bootloader to flash to my SGS 4g via Odin, can anyone help me?
P.S. would a SGS Vibrant bootloader work on it because I have found one of those?
Thank you for your time,
Chad
i don't know much about bootloaders but WHATEVER YOU DO DO NOT FLASH THAT VIBRANT BOOTLOADER, IT WILL BRICK!

Don't think that Superoneclick will root gingerbread. Dr honks modified gb kernels will auto root and give you cwm.

Nowadays I tend to only check here twice a day. Busy busy days now. =/.
But Chad, to answer your question, if you're gonna root, you might as well try out some of the custom gingerbread roms we have on this forum. There are Audiophile, valhalla and ICBINB. There are differences to all of them so make sure you read up on which you might wanna flash.
Superoneclick can't root our phones on Gingerbread, so you'll need to flash a custom GB kernel as Exodian recommended.
If you want you can follow my GB starter pack guide from step 7 on so you can prepare your phone for having ext4 and a gingerbread rom of your choice without issues.

Egads...no Q&A threads in the Development section.
what rom are you running? what would you like to run? the kernel and rom need to be compatible.

Understandable but the sections have titles. When you have to move as many threads that are in wrong sections as we do, it can be a bit frustrating. The main culprits are Q&A threads in Development sections. This type of thing happens in many forums, not just this one.

Your English is great. I only wish that I had an answer for you. I do not want to tell you something incorrect. Scott has been offline since you asked the question. He is very good to help. Check back maybe in the morning , he is usually on then, Regards.
EDIT: I don't know if this answers your question but I just read that someone who has a different rom (AOKP JB) flashed Scott's OC kernel and it is working.

Kernels aren't baseband specific, they're OS specific.
Ok, then. I'm running rooted 2.3.4 stock. I had tried a few but had issues. I had luck with faux123 version 014, but I can't find any links that work. What other kernels work well with stock 2.3.4?

You need to stop making threads and/or asking such questions, because if you would actually search and read, there's a thread for Google Now in the Themes and Apps Section of this phone's forum, probably first thread listed there. Ugh!
I didn't know a thread was already created.

Well, seeing as this is here
Does anyone find that it can be a tad laggy at times?
Perhaps its because of the herring kernel, but I do feel as if we can do something to speed it up. Any ideas?
