My problem is, if I rapid read, moving my eyes from the beginning to end, I don't understand anything. It have th feeling of to get 0% comprehension. But if I subvocalize, I understand and get more.
Actually this is correct. Subvocalising is when you are moving your mouth to talk. Put a pencil between your teeth. If it moves while you're reading then you are slowing yourself down with subvocalisation.
Conscious comprehension does require a degree of hearing the words and thinking about it. The secret to success is to minimise it not focus on eliminating it.
Don't rapid read until you've exhausted the other activation techniques. Mind probing questions. Superread and dip and skittering, mind mapping.
Focus on using Superreading you should be going to fast to actually vocalise what you are seeing and when you dip, if you hear the voice in your head that's fine. Because it is true that does help build better comprehension. At the same time you need to recognise you don't need to say every single word to have comprehension. Become selective.
