Which LagFix to use... - Vibrant General

...there are several lag fixes out there now. Which one would be the best/safest to use???

RyanZA without a doubt, one click. Get USB drivers. easy to do and easy to undo.

why do you keep posting this all over the General forums? especially when it is all in caps lock.... having a PC and a phone at the same time isn't difficult at all.

No offense, my friend, but spamming the forums everywhere with the same info in all caps is just a bit obnoxious. I mean, do what you want, but expect people to be annoyed.

read my post on RyanZA fix in batch file. tried V1 and V2.3, both have bugs.
This fix was stable for me, but there is a catch too. the limit for app data storage is 130mb, will you ever go over, i dont know. i didnt yet.

I tried RyanZA's 2-3 batch file fix and I'm not having any problems...to which bugs are you referring?

The bug I’m aware of happens with apps that store data (such as texture) on the sd card outside of the new partition. Some games such as Asphalt 5, Homerun Battle 3d, heavy Gunner, maps... This is a problem with all the lags fixes. If you don't use those apps or apps like that it probably won't affect you.
For instance the load times for Homerun Battle were three times longer on start up, if it started up. I had several times where my phone just shut off. If it eventfully did start it would run fine. Chainfire talks about the bug in his thread found here.

Played around with maps, gps on/off, zillow app., switching back and forth and phone froze on Alpha 1 as well as 2.3. Also this is a know issue and I got it too, on 2.3 I was not able to change fonts. And I hate default font

When i use RyanZA lagfix it works but when i reboot the phone everything gets screwed up anyone have this problem itll take ages to boot up and when it does alot of force closes and widgets outta place etc

Use chainfire. I believe it may be the safest, easily the most automatic one.

How to make your Vibrant run as smoothly as you just got it?

My vibrant seems to be a bit bogged down and not as awesome as I first got it. There seems to be a little lag on live wall papers, when using a live wallpaper and going to my app window, it slightly lags, etc.
How do I make it run like new besides a factory reset. (ive done 3 already)

After hours of research for a lag fix, I am yet to be decided. Everyone seems contradictory and there seems no sure set way to do it. I do not want anymore problems on my phone.
I did root using that video in literally 5 minutes though.
Is there any EXACT guide on to how to install a root fix.

I used the free tool from the market and it worked very quickly and well....
I had a terrible time getting RyanZA's one click root to work......
the one in the market I used was "one click lag fix" and had several different functions, from rooting, unrooting, lagfix, boot animation stuff, etc....nice tool
Me too but sometimes my screen don't goto sleep now..Ihave to hit power button.

Do yo you have to be rooted to get this to work?
Can you please post the market link.
My brother has the Captivate and I have the Vibrant. So I asked him how is lag fix went and he said his scores are great but now the phone seems to go slower after adding apps and using it. I googled around and found the same mixed results. Let us know after a few days of usage how your phone is working for you.

Just search lag fix vibrant and it should be the only one. Go to the web sight in the disruption and read the whole page 3 times then do the lag fix. Hope this helped. My phone runs great iv had the lag fix for 3 days now I'll post agin next saturday and tell you how its going.

If your Vibrant really isn't lagging, much like my Vibrant isn't I wouldn't bother.. these things can cause more trouble than they're worth and I don't notice a difference.

just being curious

i dont think that the EB13 update that was posted by samsung on the website is the real thing....to be honest i think that is just another test release from the looks of it because they are pushing an update out via OTA that you have to wait for......i mean i messing with the one that samsung posted up and all of the things that it was suppose to fix is not fixed.......im going to wait for the OTA
I think it's already been confirmed in the OTA status thread that it's the same thing from Samsung's website...
EDIT: I guess it has not been confirmed yet. Anybody with an OTA update care to confirm or deny?
Suite yourself, killer, but you're the only person I've seen who's expressed that opinion ever since Samsung got the correct EB13 files up. Yes, at first they had some EB01 files listed, as well as had some misnamed as KB13, but for ~15 hours now they've had EB13 posted, and many people on XDA, including experienced developers, have downloaded, flashed, and started digging into EB13. I feel pretty sure it's the real deal.
I think that the majority of people's issues are coming from bad upgrades/flashes, and they need to A) clear cache (including Dalvik if they're using CWM) and B) if the issues persist they should do a clean wipe/flash.

Clearing the cache is stuff you do when you don't have the official stuff....you shouldn't have to go through all that trouble if it was the official release.....idk.....im going to wait for the OTA and see if there is any difference.....just to be sure

I got the ota and I'm having issues no camera,no pics in gallery but they are still on my sd card, no music player I got a player from the market and it works so my music is on my sd card. The music icon is pink also not sure if it is supose to be.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
i know the Syndicate development team is waiting for the OTA version before they dig in and do their thing. it might just be a precaution, i really don't know myself. i'm waiting on the OTA so i can send it to them, but if anyone has it, they could do that first. of course once you install it i think it might be too late.
It has been confirmed in multiple threads, there is just 200 pages to sort through since it's release. The files are the EXACT same.

Yea there appears to be an issue with eb14 reading media files. Apparently formatting you memory card then reloading your files resolves that.

No, clearing cache is stuff you do when you want to eliminate the possibility of a preexisting mess screwing up your experience. The only time an OS upgrade will work 100% perfectly and smoothly is by doing a wipe and clean install. If you just flash overtop of what you already have, expect complications.
This is true of all OSes. A clean Ubuntu install will always be more worryproof than upgrading from, say, 9.10 to 10.10. A clean Windows 7 SP1 install will always be smoother than installing SP1 on top of an existing Windows 7 gold install.
At any rates, wipes and clean installs shouldn't be scary or 'unnecessary' to regulars on this forum. It was a whole terrifying 10 minutes of work to resync my phone and get my apps downloading.

No worries here. Root, then use Titanium Backup to save your apps and data. Flash, crash or trash your phone, but just reroot and use Titanium to restore it. And you get your Birds data back.

Why so many apps missing?!

OK, so after the Gingerbread update a TON of stuff I purchased in the market is no longer available.
Tweetcaster pro, FIFA, Abduction world attack, Paypal (official), The Sims..... What gives? I've never stolen software for Android, and I don't want to. I want my apps back! Ideas?

Use this apk to fix your market. Reboot. Should solve your problems.
Didn't work. :L Man, this is SUPER annoying.
You sure you did it right? I had the same exact problem with my apps...a lot of people have. That's the fix. Before I applied it, my Slingplayer wasn't showing up in the market...30 freaking dollar app..now it is.
I downloaded the .apk, installed, then rebooted. Nothing. Are you on Gingerbread?
Could someone running GB tell me if they can find tweetcaster pro or FIFA in the market?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
You need to run the app though lol. After you install, open your app drawer and run Market Fixer. Click Fix, THEN reboot. Yes, I'm on Gingerbread.

I've had this problem for weeks. On stock 2.2, rooted and the apk didn't help. Seriously annoying bug.

I was able to fix this, as I seemed to get a version update on my Market stealth (as it had the AdMob setting added to my Settings screen, where 2 days ago, it wasn't there). When that happened, all my apps returned.
Right before I found this, I did run the APK from above, but I used QuickReboot to reboot. Coincidence?
Now to get the 55 updates I missed over the past month...
I'm not rooted. That was the issue. I don't want to root either. EA Games took care of me. Now to email handmark.... :L

May I ask you why you don't want to root?
I know it's a dumb question, but have you checked the market website? I had a similar issue and was able to find and download the missing apps through the site.

You're welcome. It's good to know that there's at least one part of the market we can rely on.

Reported Memory and Memory Leak

I am currently running EH06, stock/deodexed and am experiencing seemingly random reboots. I was curious to see if this issue is memory leak related, and from general RAM checking, I believe it may be. Of my available 342 MB of ram, RIGHT NOW my phone reports 241 MB taken up, I have seen that value getting up into the low 300's at it's peak, and unfortunately I haven't seen it immediately preceding a reboot.
I decided to check the memory usage from the command line, and when I run 'free' via the bash shell, of the 350400 KB (342MB) of potential RAM - which matches nicely with what the phone is reporting - I am being told I in fact have 321 MB of RAM taken up. Now I'm no Linux/Android guru, but that doesn't seem right.
So I opened up a bunch of apps, visited a couple of websites, backed out to the home screen and rechecked my numbers. I am now at 302MB/342MB according to the task manager app, but 338MB/342MB according to 'free'. Using the 'Clear Ram' button, I was able to knock it back down, but I have seen it in the past few days not drop the used RAM amount upon pressing that button...
I'm experincing similar problems , it seems every day I need to do a reeboot to keep my ram usage down cause when I first boot , let everything load ... then kill tasks I have around 180 free but after about a day when I kill tasks I have around 80 free and I need to reboot for peace of mind I don't know what it is but I hope I get fixed ....

People have had mixed results with the 3G Turbocharger script and KickAssKernel scripts. The V6 script is the one many are reporting helps with the RAM leak. I used oprion #9 MegaRAM2. This is the lastest script. You need to get Script Manager from Market. Select "run as root" then "run". http://db.tt/oUYakOc

In the world of software, there is NO random, everything has a cause. We call things random when we haven't defined the problem's pattern.
So check it out , I instaled the new eh06 plus kernel without really getting an answer as to what a kernel was and it seems to have helped I haven't been on it for 24 hours yet but I will update and let you know

The paid "Full" version of Memory Booster allows to to set (raise) the minimum RAM threshold supposedly. I just got it and will see if I change it and install and run a bunch of apps if it prevents the reboots. Huh, I got the "Full" version but the minimum RAM threshold is set in the MB RAM Optimizer app. I will change it from 15% to 35% and see if it stops reboots tonight.

I've been getting these "random" reboots with all of the GB leaks. Been looking at my logcat but I can't make heads or tails out of what the messages mean. Currently using catlog for the logcat reader, never seen anything under the lowest level "what a terrible failure" but get tons of stuff under the next level up "error".
currently running eg22.
Would love a thread detailing how to do anything with this that might help figure out what's causing these issues.

Great John, let us know. The free version is great for seeing what is REALLY using your memory. Not the little bit the stock task manager kills. Apps are constantly loading in the background even if you haven't used them in months. If you go to Task Killer in Memory Booster Lite you will see this "ninja" apps stealing your memory. This is what people keep calling memory leaks. They are real apps loading.

ive been running stock odex eh06 since it first leaked on samfirmware and i never had a random reboot
but i am seeing memory problems. such as maps running using a whole 6MB of ram. Think, 10 years ago, that wouldve took a supercomputer. Why are these apps running even when i dont launch them?
such as engadget, maps, telenav, THREE DIALERS TAKING UP 11MB EACH WTF I THOUGHT THERE WAS ONLY ONE DIALER. anyways yeah i usually have ~100mb free but still. when i CLOSE an app, it should CLOSE. I also shouldnt see the app UNLESS I LAUNCH IT.
will v6 stop this? im scared of borking something thats why i ask...i cant afford to use the "trial and error" method like i used to :/
