I will flash to Simply tonight based on ur guide here, so i will feedback about the guide as this is my 1st flashing (sure a lot of doubts).
1 more thing, which flashing method is more safe or recommended ? Odin or CWM method ?
I flashed to speedmod via Odin actually, but the Simply thread show guide flash via CWM method~
Mayb u can add a section like preparation before flashing, for example, for user that flashed to speedmod kernel, it is advisable to disable the lagfix fist bla bla bla~

So far, the diagram is very clear and simple to newbie like me~
I know i need to proceed to step 3.0 as i already flashed to speedmod kernel through this diagram~
GREAT job and thanks for all your effort~  notworthy.gif
+1, we should buy him a drink~  thumbup.gif
Looks interesting~ Can modify although on stock rom~  biggrin.gif
*
CWM is safer and easier. U can flash a rom without a PC, ie. when u're having a meeting tongue.gif

great suggestion about the cwm and odin flashing, i haven't seen any of the recovery modes on sgs yet, so sometimes reading stuff online will surely make me blur, there are so much stuff that needs to be processed and not a complete (standard) guide on everything in one page including rooting, going into download mode (i have no idea what this is, because I use / mod HTC only, everything is different in here), flashing stuff and so on.
*
u'll get used to it eventually. Actually I'm also quite blur when I wanted to root my phone coz this is my first smartphone. I actually booted into download mode when I wanted to enter Recovery mode. I was thinking "How come this yellow thing came out??" lol.. after some googling then I found out there're actually 2 modes tongue.gif

What changes? You just flash over darky9.3?

Looks like this tweak is not recommended for simply 2.4 ROM.

I've tried on my Simply 2.4 ROM.....and immediately reverted to previous files!
The phone is became laggish with these bin files, and I've had low fps on Quadrant Benchmark.....from 1400 pts by stock (w EXT4) to 980 pts with your files....

Froyo 2.2.1 system files are better.....for me!

*
no, others using simply rom are experiencing what this guy is. This guy is the creator of the rom itself right? tongue.gif I've read the thread, only he has experienced such lagginess. even others using simply rom reported that it's smoother. And to add, the modification doesn't affect quadrant smile.gif

Hey guys~
I just tried this, so far i can feel that it did improve the smoothness. No lag at all, and the responsiveness is better!  thumbup.gif
By the way i'm using darky 9.3
*
too bad ur bootanimation MIGHT not work after replacing the files. and it doesn't backup the files u replaced for future backup

Sifus,
For backup IMEI, i use terminal emulator and type the following code
CODE
$su
#mount -o remount,rw -t rfs /dev/block/stl9 /system

to enable read&write on the system folder~

After i press Enter, nothing happen, is it normal ? Did i enable the read&write feature ?
Den i open the efs folder, it shows empty~
I need to copy out this folder to backup my IMEI ?
*
not sure about the terminal emulator part. but if u wanna backup, just copy it out to sdcard, then transfer to other places, ie. PC

well, not so sure about that la. mine also buy from lowyat before and got only crappy warranty from them. dont worry too much, if your phone rosak, just go to samsung center to fix. not really expensive juga maybe.

and btw, BEWARE of the camera lens, it's not a GORILLA glass. mine scratch already.  vmad.gif

I still post my SGS over to Sarawak tongue.gif luckily I applied Jason's camera lens protector laugh.gif

*
u don need Kies when flashing custom rom. u just need the 3 button recovery. use either ODIN (download mode), or CWM (recovery mode)
