Now that we are rolling on the official froyo release, what is the easiest lag fix to apply to it?
Yes, want to.know also. And the savest one.

Voodoo
Voodoo lagfix, following the detailed instructions via project-voodoo.org, has been troublefree for me.
Oclf2.0 from market.cf root 1.2. Super optimized kernel.
Works like a charm...
what app/method do you use to root the device on 2.2?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
Seems to have worked for me. Although it was stuck on installing SuperUser, but I looked and it was installed and working.
Voodoo time.
Anyone got a good link to Odin3 please?

I am using voodoo as it seemed the easiest. Quadrant ca. 1600 but most of the horrible lag has now gone.

I've updated my galaxy s with the official froyo update(I9000XXJPP, buildnr. XWJPA), it was kind of laggy I think, so I wanted to use the voodoo lag fix. But somehow when I want to launch update.zip there is an error which says: signature verification failed.
Before the update, the voodoo lag fix did work(benchmark 1400)!!
I don't know what to do, I think my phone only got slower after the update!!

You can't use voodoo update.zip on froyo - check the voodoo homepage and use beta 5 pre 6 via ODIN.
need to be very careful with these things or you will end up with a brick.
(Fwiw its saying that because you are on 3e not 2e - still not the right process for voodoo tho)

Don't panic, same thing happened to me. I'm no expert either however a research found the culprit. voodoo on 2.1! For some reason when updated to Froyo you can no longer do recovery zip updates cos of the voodoo kernel.
Go over to xda development and you will find a thread with a kernel that will fix recovery (do you can run voodoo again) as well as root 2.2
You will have to use odin which freaked me out at first but it's really easy

So, which full lagfix (one that converts all partitions, including /system) is better for JPO? "Universal"? The one that makes 340 mb ram visible? Which? I've kinda lost track of all those fixes.
I have JPO with the TouchWiz Mod and the 341mb optimized speedmod kernel. I have no lag whatsoever. The phone never felt so smooth, not even with voodoo on Eclair. Just my two cents.
Jpo + oclf + cf root.

My benchmark also sucks! With 2.1 and OCLF 2.0, my benchmark was 2300 and now on 2.2 and OCLF 2.0 it`s below 1800 and the menu it lags as a #$%&^^%$# If I go to the next page of the menu, it takes one second after my gesture until it really moves:S

Ok, so I was sitting here with birdman's new FlyX ROM loaded and I was all happy. Them of course I had to go and start thinking.
I know we have loaded 2.2 by using koush's recovery. And I think I understand that the recovery starts things at a super low level and then switches us to the 2.2 kernel and everything loads as 2.2.
So, my question: Do we need to load the OTA when it hits? It seems to me that it would be better to have the bar kernel loading and them just make higher level changes.
Thoughts? Discussion?

I need to go back and reread how I loaded it to agree here. This makes sense if we were able to load it properly with signatures and everything.
EDIT: Ok, I stand corrected, or clarified, by sp1kez. I re-read what I did to get 2.2 installed and the 2.2 OTA leak is a full update of everything it updates both the baseband and the system!
Well, I had to jump through some hoops to upgrade, but I finally got the 2.2 OTA and it is FAST.
It's even faster than the leaked version I previously had on there.
The hoops:
I was on a rooted 2.2 leak so I had to flash back to 2.1, only the Windows flash utility failed at 97%.
Then I reset, cleared the cache and re-flashed (but this time in Linux) and it worked fine.
I booted into stock 2.1, re-activated my phone and then looked for the OTA.
It was there so I downloaded and installed.
I just finished reinstalling my apps and everything's good to go.

overall speed-wise? i'm thinking to update mine. I'm on 2.1 stock with root. I'd be bummed to lose root since real HDMI is a godsend. do i have to unroot first?
i wouldnt upgrade if youre rooted. i tried and got stuck at the m logo and bootloader is changed so you wont be able to flash back the 2.1 so id either make sure you dont have any rooted apps and youre unrooted or stay with 2.1
Gotta say, with 2.2+LauncherPro I don't even miss root or custom ROM's.

Same here, this is my setup too and it's awesome.
If you're rooted or on a 2.2 leak, I would definitely go through the processes of reverting to stock 2.1u1 (via SBF - http://rootzwiki.com/index.php/Smartphones/Motorola/Droid-X/Droid-X.html) before attempting the OTA update.
I hoped to see the OTA this morning but it wasn't there. So I checked for updates & there it was. It loaded fast & with no issues. I had factory 2.1 without root. I love it so far.

That's partly due to you clearing off your phone. I sbf'd back to 2.1u1 last night and reapplied the leaked 2.2, root, 2.3.15, tranquility, then serenity, and HOLY SMOKES this is faster than it was before I did this. Like, WICKED fast! And yeah, that's without the bloatware-filled OTA. Got the same system as you do too: 2.3.15, just leaked and deodexed
Except your missing the new radio and kernal Also im running the legit 2.2OTA, and have rooted it via the droid2 method..now just have to manually deodex it and ill be all set

Just a heads up, I was running full stock 2.1, however I was rooted, and I did the OTA update with 0 problems. I lost root, but used the Droid 2.2 method and got it back. No issues whatsoever.

All im saying, is why bother with incomplete leaks? Why not take the little effort and do the real OTA?? I SBF'd back to 2.1.. Then did the OTA 2.2 Update, and then did the automatic 1 click Droid2 Root method.. and had a rooted, legitimate 2.2 update in less then 30 minutes after the initial SBF back down
What your doing is like buying a car with no doors on it.. Why run just the leaked system folder, when you can just get the total package that comes with an updated Radio and Kernal along with it? Why have an incomplete update with some components missing, when its not even that big of a deal to get the actual, 2.2 total package and have it rooted in 5 minutes anyway

I think you over-estimate the value of the kernel (which is actually the same version - just a different build-string) and the radio (which is a very small incremental bump in version).
The downsides to the upgrade (for hackers/themers) is that there is no sbf for 2.2 right now and it's been reported that once you OTA, you can not flash back to 2.1 via sbf or you'll brick.
If you're a 'stock' kinda guy, then OTA is probably the way to go. Those that like tinkering a little deeper, need the safety net of an SBF.
I agree. I personally think it would not be smart to OTA at this time if you have the desire to run anything other than stock on your phone (whether you can get root or not). I hear the new OTA doesn't run wireless tether for root users (not sure about this).
I'm still running the original 2.2 leak rooted. After all the problems I've been hearing about with tranquility, I would like to wait until I hear less complaints. Although from what I've read, most of the problems come from user error and people not following the instructions so I'm definitely not knocking P3Droid or Team Black Hat.
We have a system sbf file now for 2.2, that's all youll ever need unless you try something crazy, I have the OTA, rooted and also manually deodexed it myself and running my old theme I liked before.. Adfree is also working fine on my OTA unlike some others... What im saying is im not missing anything over the leak, If anything I have more. The 2.3.15 deodexed leak gives me nothing I don't already have because I was able to deodex and root the official myself.

Very strange, I haven't had a single problem with anything, and I've used everything you listed...,im even pulling 1490 in quadrants
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
And I was pulling similar quadrant scores from the leaks which have the SAME STUFF as the OTA. All they did was increase the version number for the radios and kernel. Even the sbf TBH released isn't the full complete sbf I'd like to have for a safety net (though I trust them when they do say that it is good for everything except folks trying to get out of brick b/c they sbf'd to 2.1u1).
Besides, getting to OTA may be quick, but getting back to where my phone is NOW but with the OTA kernel would take HOURS. No thanks. Not till it is optimized and deodexed and cleaned up by TBH.
Running the OTA, and wile everything works, I'm not seeking an overall speed increase. Some individual things are definitely faster: the browser, gmail, lock screen. But, others are the same, and some, occasionally laggy (may be that's due to my apps? ADWlauncher?).
It's not that the system is slow, just that I don't see any overall boost (certainly not the JIT impact written about in the Froyo coverage).
Compared to 2.1, those things are much snappier. Also, clearing the cache helps with this too.

If i'm running Voodoo V.2 with DH12, could I just run the super clean voodoo version over it and get it to work?
For those who are using Froyo and a voodoo kernel (most likely SuperClean 2.1 Voodoo), how is it running? Also, if running a voodoo kernel will performing a nandroid backup to a non-voodoo rom/kernel completely get rid of voodoo? I just want to be sure I can get back to a voodooless rom if something bad happens with the voodoo version of SuperClean 2.1
Thanks.
I've been running it since last night and it seems snappy, but laggy at times when going through apps in the app drawer... I'm giving it a little more time, hopefully voodoo will be available soon when it is meant for the public. If I start seeing trouble I'll for sure switch to non voodoo via removing the lag fix.
Dear All
before i restore my last eclair stock rom by red cwm, what should i do??

It is my understanding that if you run the complete odin package it will overwrite even voodoo.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
i have killed my phone 3 times not disabling voodoo correctly when flashing roms. and each and every time adrynalyne's full di01 restore package has overwritten the whole thing for the win.
so if you are going back to bone stock, unrooted, full bloated eclair, (ie because you need to bring the phone back to verizon for warranty work) then that is your best bet. it will indeed wipe any and all voodoo whatnot from your phone.
Isn't it fine just to bring it back to stock DL09 Eclair, since that's the latest official OTA release? I don't see why you need to go back all the way to DI01 if you're planning on returning it. But I guess in the end of the day it won't really matter either way.
It doesn't really matter, all of the all in one vzw fascinate odins will work.
You technically don't _need_ to odin anything but the modem though.
For me, there was no lagfix and I had a working cwr/rom manager, so I did it in three quick steps.
1. Nandroid restore my DL09 setup.
2. Odin DL09 modem over EB01.
3. install a DL09 kernel from clockwork recovery and wipe the cache.
I was exactly where I was before with no headache.
Nandroid doesn't flash modem nor kernel.
However the all in ones may be faster if you are building from scratch (and absolutely the fastest route to stock). You should pick an all in one with the modem and kernel you want or you will have to do steps 2 & 3 either way.

Guys i have a bit strange problem. I'm trying to restore stock Eclair on my x8 but for some unknown reason i cant do it. Tried flashing it, tried with SEUS and no result plus it wont go into recovery wso i cant access root menu im running out of ideas help pls. Btw im running GingerDX v 0.26.
I got it to work. Sorry for disturbing guys. Thanks.
Although my stock Eclair phone is rooted, to the best of my knowledge no stock apps have been removed. Has it pretty much been determined that anyone rooted can't use the recovery update.zip or could it work? And if this method fails does it freeze phones and make the previous Eclair install unusable?
The update will fail. You should be able to simply use the one click unroot, update and then reroot as your ROM isn't modified.
Mine wirked fine, the only problem I has was with the missing asphalt demo so I redownloaded it here on xda then did the update.zip on my phone...rooted di18 to ec05 with no problem now.

I completely forgot that I actually used this tool to root and that it included that capability! Thanks for reminding me.
My question remains though about a failed update--does it still leave the phone usable?
I'd rather not resort to Odin if I can as I've read way too many horror stories about "unbrickable" Epics becoming exactly that.
I've had problems updating from DG17 to EC05. I managed to update to DI18 thru update.zip, and it picked up the OTA EC05 but it fails at updating modem. I looked at several forums and what I gather is that even though the system is at DI18 the baseband still sits at DG17 and I need to update that w/o using odin...if possible
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Just in case it wasn't clear to any n00bs like me, you can update I think if only the following 3 conditions are right:
1 - you unroot
2 - all your stock apps are still there
3 - you have a stock DI18 Eclair or EB13 kernel.
I met all 3 conditions by using the tools around (had to fix 1 and 3, not 2) and update.zip worked from DI18, so I'm now happily running Froyo EC05. Thanks everyone for the help.
