Read his twitter ...I guess he's working on a gingerbread port he dropped this already. But gingerbread is coming from eugene
[Vibrant Android Development] JediDru:
Fantastic. I was anxiously awaiting an update. But with that news I can live without a clone for now no problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] los0325:
Yo Eugene your rom looks like my G2x... I going to miss flashing your roms
[Vibrant Android Development] Becool0130:
awww man. i was looking forward to update 6 for some time. I guess its a no go. Thanks Eugene for everything you gave us.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
never said Update6 wasn't coming, I've not had time to work on android due to real life stuff.
[Vibrant Android Development] Becool0130:
aaah sweet man!

Thanks

btw, does anyone know why my kernel perhaps keep panicking? It keeps vibrating (once) and then (double vibrate) few secs later.... for no apparent reason and THEN restarts (again and again)><

also, ive tried to re-download the rom 3 times and tried to re-apply the .zip 2 times. BUT i havnt odined back yet.

whats going on?

thanks,

Tim
[Vibrant Android Development] duboi97:
Oh sorryfor the misconception
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
Can i ask what the difference between this and bi-winning since eugenes is aosp and biwinning is asia based??

Also, when you say its signed with your keys eugene does that mean i couldnt flash a battery mod or use metamorph stuff? Im a little lost on what that means.

Thanks

Hola mi amigos.

Been a while since I've done anything vaguely productive around here, so here goes a little nothing. Been using GC exclusively, and Eugene, great work my friend, as always. When I get some more hours at work, there will be another donation coming your way. Now, besides my own touches and theming on my personal mix of GC, I've modded a couple of your apps with the Gingerbread notification icons, and figured I put them out for everyone. It brings the whole feel together, with all of the notification icons matching.

In the attached Notification Icons zip, are the same DeskClock, Email, MMS, and Vending Apps that are in GCR3.5. The only difference are the notification icons are of the gingerbread variety. The market icons have held up through the recent updates as well. Zip is flashable via clockwork, please wipe cache and Dalvik before flashing.

I have also included an optional zip that disables the ascending ringtone. Flash as stated above for those that want it.

Enjoy. :D

Edited - Realized an error with the Ascending Ringer Fix, and the zip is fixed and will now actually work. :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] bartek25:
wow Br1cKd , You are one of the people we always can count on here on XDA ,Thanks a lot Dud.
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
Ok having a slight problem, need help asap!

I went ahead and installed the gcr update 5 via cwm. Wiped data and all that. Was running the red cwm . Installed fine, rebooted phone then came up with green cam and told me that the config was different. I told it to go and make the.changes. it kept saying it was unable to make the.change. I noticed it looked like it was trying to change the file system from.rfs to.ext4. After a few tries I told.it not.to change anything, and the phone then booted up.

Now when I try to install any app it says I don't have.any free space, yet I have nothing on my phone... what do I do? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] WingCero:
Is there a way to install this via ROM manager? It shows the android with the white box that indicates installing packages, but only for a moment. Thhen it shoots to the manual package installing menu. Even then i choose to install the ROM that I have renamed Update, but nothing.

Running stock 2.1 rooted software.
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy25000:
Hey when this happens you have to clear your cache.
[Vibrant Android Development] cccheel:
How do I do this? When I boot into recovery, it's green, and there is no advanced option to wipe davlik. I wiped cache partition, but I am still having this problem.

I also noticed that flashing this ROM erased all of my SD card... I just want to reflash something else, but I can't because I can't install anything! Please help!
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy25000:
Go to settings, applications, manage applications, all. Then go through them and click clear cache and clear the data too since you want to flash another rom.

Or you could download an app from the market that deletes all the cache for you. Just search and you'll find many.

By the way this issue isn't because of this rom. It even happens to stock. Also eugene posted at the beginning to backup because it might delete everything :p
[Vibrant Android Development] cccheel:
I followed these steps, but on ever app, clear cache is greyed out. I cleared data, and now I can't even get into the Market. I keep getting a network error.

I know Eugene posted to backup SD card, but it is still crappy that it wiped it. I've never experienced this flashing a ROM before.
[Vibrant Android Development] cccheel:
Still can't install anything...ugh...

Keep getting: "Sorry, there's not enough space to install this item."
[Vibrant Android Development] koutouyo:
How is the battery guys? is it great like trigger?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Seems to be sense that GCR3 was build off a EDT build and WiFi calling is now working on Bi-WinningV2 and Malice 2.3.1... the "WifiCalling_BiWin.zip" apk works fine on GCR3 Update5... working for me great

EDIT: by installing it it has change the Mod Version to "Bi-Winning V2 - EDT"... I'm also running Bullet v1.1 EDT kernel... don't know if using that kernel helps or not

EDIT2: so this mean that WiFi calling is working with GCR3-Up5
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
You need to go into recovery and enable VooDoo. This is addressed in the thread somewhere. Start at the beginning b/c people were having this issue in the beginning.
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
Eugene's Kernels have always wiped the SD on the first install. I would recommend re-flashing or moving on to a different ROM. Malice is pretty slick. Remember that there are going to be some ROMs that just aren't right for you. I feel that way about Touch Wiz based ROMs. I just can't stand them. That is why GCR is what I use.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Just noticed your sig, made me a little sad for a second. RIP Loki, you were loved, LOL. In all seriousness, this newest GC has negated my internal need to cook up another minimalistic rom. GCR2 was a big inspiration for Loki, and I wanted to keep that minimalistic feel on the newer firmwares that were coming out. Now that the master is back, I can take the roll of user again, making tiny mods here and there, and doing my own personal theming (still using the last Loki status bar icons on my own GC remix), and stay happier than a pig in you know what.

Speaking of tiny mods, I fixed the Ascending Ringer fix I posted a couple pages back, it actually has the phone.apk in it now. Sorry for anyone who tried it and it didn't work, it will now, my bad. :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
I had a little crush on Loki. It was just about perfect for me. I still keep a copy of it on my SD. Just in case.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Ty friend.

IMHO the only Rom that outshines the minimalistic approach I took with Loki, is this one, Ginger Clone. Eugene made leaps with this newest build, and did some things I could never make work right (like a real aosp dialer and a calendar that didn't have a bad image stretched across the top, among other mods.) Not to mention his Kernel work, which is outstanding when you treat it right.

Would anyone be interested in a light theme for GC? I have tossed around the idea of releasing my status bar icons for GC. Basically, as stated earlier, they are the last ones I used in Loki, the dark green Honeycomb-ish icons and accurate battery thats green and orange. Attached screenshot shows what I'm using, if y'all want it, I'll post it later this afternoon.
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
Can i ask a serious question, please no flamers..

So many roms, so many kernels.and modems out there...

Eugenes rom so far runs the fastest, best battery, best gps, and isnt loaded with bull**** apps like.everyone else puts in.

Heres my question tho... why do we need so many different kernels.and modems? Im just lost, why wasnt an excellent kernel made right in the beginning?

Why are so many modems needed when only a couple should be.needed? Like kb1 is a battery killer whereas kb5 has the same performance it seems and.better battery..?

Its a big.confusing mess if you ask me.

I only.need one copy.of windows.for my pc, one driver for.my graphics card, etc... i mean sheesh.

Like i said please no flaming me, id just like an informative answer from anyone willing. Thanks to anyone who.can explain it!
[Vibrant Android Development] Yogi76:
I wanted to try this ROM since it looks like exactly what I need. However, since flashing it, I'm getting a ton of random reboots. I looked through this thread and see quite a few other complaints about this but I haven't seen any solutions. I used Odin to go back to stock T959UVJFD and then reflashed this ROM, but the random reboots continued. Any suggestions?
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
Are you overclocking? That could be an issue. I also noticed some stability when I ran it with the Overstock Kernel. But the last update really stabilized everything for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
What you are seeing is the result of some really crappy code originally developed by Samsung. The multitude of modems is where Samsung keeps releasing updates to their modem code. The Kernels are development to get around errors in code from the Samsung went with. The original code was really garbage and all these kernels are designed to improve performance and battery life. Everyone posting kernels on this site are amateur coders just trying to learn how to do it. So they release something and let the community run, break it, tear it apart and then they improve it. So there will be as many kernels as there are "developers". How do you determine which is best? Try one and see if it runs like crap. Then don't use that one.
[Vibrant Android Development] ayoteddy:
Man have I been missing out.. I never installed any of Eugenes ROMs since vibrant9.. looked past gingerclones for some reason. I now love it. First time my quandrant score went past 2.3k on a 2.2 ROM + No more pauses when opening contacts ect. (stupid touchwiz)

Anyway I want to say thanks to Eugene, and ask is there NO themes available for this ROM? Cause I fully ported my Scarlet LeftOvers theme ( As i do to any ROM i use, See my sig ) and would share if anyones interested .. also themed some icons and notification icons to match the theme :-)

Great ROM .. Wish I tried it sooner though..
[Vibrant Android Development] Yogi76:
No overclocking. I've run a handful of ROMs in the past, the last being NERO 4.1. That is what I had on before upgrading to this ROM. After running into the instability issues, I used Odin to go back to stock JFD and then reflash to this ROM. I was stilling seeing the reboots, so now I'm using Odin to go to KA6 and then I'm going to try flashing this ROM again. I'll post the results.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Update6 is likely to be posted tonight just as an fyi...

before you can update, you will need to update the zImage first here.. > http://eb-productions.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=samsungsgs&action=display&thread=307
[Vibrant Android Development] krazie1:
Yeah I want it. That would be Awesome to have your honeycomb green icons on this Rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] dligon:
umm eugene are you sure this is wise to ask some of the "geniuses" on here to update zimages before they can update i can just see a whole laundry list of confusions and complaints even though its probably a simple as a-b-c even that gets lost in translation.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
The old update script ( amend ) will not work from any current zImage ( Kernel ) that is made right now!

You have to update en-order to update to update6 GCR3, and to be frank, everyone needs to learn edify update script anyways..

[Vibrant Android Development] Abu-7abash:
One question I had for a while Eugene, since this is JPJ based, it supports Arabic right?
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Um, not sure.... Native for me is English & never checked.
[Vibrant Android Development] Abu-7abash:
Can anyone please confirm this? In locale and text is there an Arabic locale option?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Thank You for all your great work Sir... I must say the new Kernel is very smooth and responsive
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Not in Update 5.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Request granted. This will change the Status Bar Icons only, see the screenshot previously posted. Based on GC-R3.5 framework, flash through recovery.

If necessary I'll do a new one for update 6.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
who knows if it will work.. idk personally.

Likely not from the sounds of things?
[Vibrant Android Development] SuperJMN:
Oh God! THE WIIMOTE CANNOT BE PAIRED! I really had loved it if this feature was working. I know that CM allows gamepad pairing, but GPS is broken there. Please, Eugene, check out this issue.

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] bdij305:
Is this ROM like complete to use as a daily driver? I'm asking because it seems pretty small (that's what she said).
[Vibrant Android Development] IshV1982:
Hah!! Downloading now.
[Vibrant Android Development] mj56gt:
This looks great! One question: does it allow the power button to take pictures like in the EDT ROMs? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] SuperJMN:
Yes, it does :-)

For some reason, now I'm stuck in a Clockwork loop and I can't flash anything. Odin won't recognize my device.

Not a noob, been flashing for a while. This is weird.
[Vibrant Android Development] JediDru:
I had this problem a few weeks ago actually with GCR2. By chance which odin package are you installing this afterwards on? JFD or Eugenes 2.2? Once I flashed off of Eugenes it was good to go. For some odd reason it didn't like coming off of JFD. Its worked off of JFD before and after but there was a rut I was stuck in at one time....
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Odd, sounds like the Bug that's been going around which CM got blamed for... idk, that is weird though.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
I'll look into it... Regarding the Button not being complete, I did that & it's not a bug.
[Vibrant Android Development] Vision77:
Pardon my ignorance but.....what's the name of that awesome looking GPS app in the screenies?:D

Sweet thanks man!

Are you still working on porting jvb over?

Just wondering.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
off & on yes... Fixed most of the kernel, but trying to figure out why I hit volume up sends the phone into a Forced upload mode:

even have a fully working recovery, but its all kernel issues at this point for me.

What exactly is jvb? Sorry.for.asking.newb questions im just trying to learn... not really a thing on wiki i could learn all this. :-(

~Eugene
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Can't wait to check out Update 6 after my service call this morning, looks like there is more than a handful of changes coming from Update 5.

Thanks for your hard work man.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yogi76:
Using Odin to flash KA6 and then flash this ROM caused the rebooting, too. However, I did finally get GCR3 installed and running. I had to use Odin to flash PIT 512 and T959UVJFD. I then rooted it and installed Clockwork and used that to install a KA6 ROM. I then installed GCR3 from there and it appears to be working fine without any of the rebooting problems I was seeing before.

Now, the only issue I'm having I get the error "Setup could not finish - Unable to open connection to server" when I try to add my Exchange server account to the phone. I've never had this error with any other ROMs I've used.

I see that Update 6 was just posted. I'm going to install that and hope that it resolves the Exchange problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
Now to decide if I want to update. 5 has been running so well. I don't see a definitive need, but 6 is all new and shiny.
[Vibrant Android Development] ronin4740:
can anyone comment on bt in u6? with u5 bt would drop between my headset/car and the phone quite frequently.

I am aware that this is a problen with this version of the firnware but seem to remember Eugene planning to try to fix this...

[Vibrant Android Development] Yogi76:
I flashed Updated 6, but I still got the same Exchange error, "Setup could not finish - Unable to open connection to server." I went back to JFD and KA6 to test the Exchange account, and it worked fine in both of those. After doing some research, I found this is a known error with the email.apk in some Android phones and Exchange 2010 SP1, which is what we are running on our server. It appears the email.apk in this ROM is a version that causes the problem.

http://blog.skinkers.com/2011/01/06...id-error-unable-to-open-connection-to-server/

I noticed that Update 6 has been pulled temporarily. Hopefully, when the replacement is posted, it won't have this problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Odd, I don't have issue using the exchange at all... :rolleyes:

You might try another email app like k9 or something... Remember this is AOSP Apps & not Touchwiz!
[Vibrant Android Development] Yogi76:
What version of Exchange are you running on your server? This is a know bug in Android interoperability with Exchange 2010 SP1, specifically. Here is the Google bug tracker thread for the bug:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=11177

My wife has a Nexus S running 2.3.3 and it works fine with the same Exchange server. I know I could use a workaround of using a different e-mail program, but I just wanted to give you a heads up that your ROM appears to have the aforementioned bug.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
I post what I use.. so if it works for me & not for you, then I'll likely not fix it.
[Vibrant Android Development] SugarMouth:
How do I flash back to another ROM? I get an error message in recovery.

Does anyone want an ascending ringer fix for 3.6? The one I posted previously won't work, the apk will, but the zip won't flash over 3.6 due to differences in the update scripting. I can get a new one out with the new update scripting once I get a chance to take a deeper look at it, if anyone wants it that is. If not, then no worries, lmk peoples.
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
Yes. Please. Thank you.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
OK, may be later today or tomorrow. As stated, gotta have a look at the new install scripts and make the necessary changes.

For those more advanced users, you can pull the phone.apk out of the zip I previously posted (a few days ago), and push to your system/app folder, and it will kill the ascending ringer.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Ok I got motivated this morning.

This zip will replace the Phone.apk in GC-R3.6 with a version that disables the ascending ringer. This zip was specifically formatted for version 3.6, and has the proper update script to install on eugene's new recovery. Enjoy.
[Vibrant Android Development] hernandez5683:
Works for me with no issue at all.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yogi76:
It still didn't work. I went ahead and replaced it with another Gingerbread stock Email.apk. That fixed it in that it allowed it to sync, but then it kept force closing in your ROM. I didn't have any more time to waste messing with it, so I went ahead and switched to CM7 and I'm syncing fine now. I know this bug is limited to people with Exchange 2010 SP1, so it probably doesn't affect a ton of people anyway. Thanks for trying.
