+1. Battery drain is way too much for me to use as a daily. I had it charging all night. Pulled out the charger and it's now at 77%. I know about wiping battery stats and all but I already calibrated twice. No way this should be happening, therefore, I too am going to head back to 2.2.1 - What's the easiest way to do it without having to go back to stock JFD?. I flashed the GB bootloaders.

The effort is really appreciated EB.
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
Flash a 2.2/2.2.1 kernel and then a nan backup or a fresh 2.2.1 rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] mainevent3405:
So if I flash Overstock, reboot into recovery and restore my 2.2 rom I have already nandroided that will work?

Hi EB,

I would like for my simply honey 3.8-induced vibrant to have the sgsII look. Do you think that this theme would work? It is from the i9000 forums. I am chickening out a bit haha

I used both the original upload and the current upload...same intermittent reboot.

I thought it was the TW launcher that was causing the reboot, so I installed Go Launcher EX. No luck. I do not have an app on my lock screen. I am forced to use the pin lock for exchange security.
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
Yes,after you flash OverStock,it will just sit on that screen.Using the button combo,depending what bootloaders your using,boot to recovery and backup/restore,choose your backup,done.

I had to edit my build.prop file for me to be able to see it and download it from the Market.

My Netflix is working now too.

Do You also have Hulu Working too?

Great Job EB (and all you other dev's)

Just want to say thanks tp EB and all the others that had a hand in this. I'm glad to see that I still have options for my Vibrant. GB is looking lood and this build is running really good for me. GPS is working (rem not to turn it off)

Keep up the great work.

If I am coming from an old version of this ROM can I use the CWM Light zip first and then flash the full version? Whats up with changing the BootLoaders so you can see CWM? :confused: My Vibrant has been in my drawer for a while and needs some new Honey!! lol
[Vibrant Android Development] thachosenone:
I just have the two, not labeled, but they have different manufacture dates on them, so that's how I tell them apart
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Just so everyone knows I tried basically this same method on 2.2.1. The problem here is that this is for HTC and not Samsung and while yes it will install and not fc it will remain in the enabling state. There is yet another piece of the puzzle that's missing. It may be searching for certain build prop signatures but then again when testing on 2.2.1 I changed everything in build prop.

I also contacted a dev from the Nexus One forums where they did get it working and his only reply was to flash a 2.2 rom that had it.

I'm certainly not trying to say that this wont work I'm just saying something is still missing, but then again I was wrong once before.

Check out the bootloader thread about that.

Which version do you currently have? If 3.0 or higher then just flash one of the three that has the features you want. If you're currently running 2.8.2 or lower then use the Odin version first and then either medium or large if you want those features.

How you get into angrygps settings??

there no instructions in the link
[Vibrant Android Development] wu_wei_lion:
I have to say I love this ROM. Almost enough to marry it. Almost. I don't know if it's the gingerbread effect but scrolling text seems smoother. Is it just me or is it that because there's hardware acceleration baked in? I haven't tried the GPS extensively but it does seem to work on boot. I'll have to see if it plays well with Google maps next. I tried gingerbread blitzkrieg and that was an issue for me. Thanks to everyone who worked on this rom! I'll hit the thanks button wherever appropriate. :-)

[Vibrant Android Development] jangst123:
This ROM is awesome! No problems here.

One observation, GPS works great, even on navigation. Unless I turn on Sensor Aiding,, then my position goes crazy. Also, wifi seems to have no effect on GPS that I can see.

I leave wifi and GPS on,, 50% of the time I'm using wifi. My battery has been fantastic! Before I would have never even tried to leave wifi and GPS on all day!

I use it heavy for Business and a few games.

I'm keeping this as my daily driver for a few more days. Then it is going on 6 more of our business vibrants. Which have been on Bionix

I've been away from Simply Honey since 3.5. Has the blurry mms been fixed? I know the AOSP mms is supposed to fix that but back then when i tried it all i got were FC's. Im really wanting to come back to SH but my wife often sends me pics of my kids (I miss them while i work) so a clear picture would be great! I'm kinda feeling like Winnie the Pooh without my jar of Honey.

Responses would be appreciated, thanks.

Still blurry, sorry. I am trying to fix that though.

Also is there way to toggle 3g back to Edge? For some reason at work my 3g, H speeds are horrible, today I was only getting about 40-50 kbps down, I can walk across the street and 3-4 mb down. I want to see if Edge is any better atleast to stream Pandora without it cutting out every 30 seconds. I

Reflash the package you installed. If CWM it won't wipe but will remove TW4.5 and replace with TW3.

Settings/Mobile Networks/Network Mode = GSM Only for what you want to try.

So, im without a pc for the weekend. I downloaded 3.3, rooted this thing, and have cwm installed. Anyone got the instructions for 3.6? Can I update from 3.3 to 3.8?

Is there a way to get this without any angry greek gods involvement?
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
If on 3.3 you can go straight to 3.8 via cwm recovery or the cwm app that was included with 3.3.

Although I'd suggest waiting until you have access to a computer if you do have problems. Just saying.

done.....still freezing when changing the flipfont. tried applying fugutweaks, juwes ram script, but no go

No problem changing font here. You'rew gonna have to start over by doing a wipe install. Wipe data/factory reset and install your choice of sm, med, or lg.

Ok, first of all excellent rom. Good job, man. Had no problems installing it. Comming from TheBeast_v1 using CWrecovery. First factory reset, flash the rom, fix permissions, wipe dalvik cashe, restart, skip initial settup, wait 15-20min and restart. Works like a butter!!! Quadrant score 1500+. Tried to see the gps settings in Labstest mode using any cut, but it is missing from the activity list. Does it mean that the gps firmware is missing or just the labstest?
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Well all of the normal GPS files are there. Just checked myself and yes lbstest is missing. I'm sure its a change in GB as its causing a fc. In SGS Tools trying with secret codes but other things aren't coming up that way either. I'll look at it tonight but I don't think it will change anything.

Just looked more and Angry GPS is the new alternative. Make a shortcut for that and it will give you much of the same settings though still none work.
[Vibrant Android Development] 30000:
Hi everyone,

It seems that when I'm running any 2.3.3 ROM on my Vibrant (not just this one) There are 2 bugs that always appear.

The first one (which is mostly just annoying) is that there is always this freaky pixelated color screen that comes on after the Vibrant screen, and always before the boot animation. Everything else works fine after that.

The second one (which is the reason I'm posting this thread) is because Clockwork Mod recovery is invisible. What I mean is, CwM is fully functional, but it will always be hidden either behind a Vibrant screen or behind the screen mentioned above in the first bug. I know CwM is running when the soft key backlights are all on, and also because the power button will reboot the phone, since "reboot device now" is the first item selected in CwM, and the volume up/down buttons will also work.

I'm trying to enable voodoo in CwM. Btw, does anyone know where I can find some good JVB themes for this ROM? Also, does anyone know of any compatible kernels for this that include BLN?

Also, the power control widget doesn't display anything or work in this ROM. Any ideas for a fix?

Any help with these problems would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
The problems I can't fix. Graphics. The pixelated screen you see is because we are not using the 2.3.3 bootloaders and until we get a leak for Vibrant and a proper bootloader and kernel we won't. This carries over to why CWM is "invisible." Again until we get a proper kernel and bootloader it will remain this way. This is the main reason that this will remain a release candidate and not a final product.

There are two ways to go about flashing things. The easiest is to use the included cwm app and flash as an update. The bad thing is you can't see whats going on and don't know if errors occur.

The second option is to install SDK on your machine as well as Android screen caster.

A little trick, other than installing SDK on your system and then installing Android Screencaster, is to place any voodoo kernel on your sdcard, I use Overstock. Download SGS Kernel Flasher. Also keep chainfires CF-root 3.1 on your CPU. Now using SGS Kernel flasher go ahead and flash your voodoo kernel. When the phone reboots you will be stuck at either Vibrant screen, if using a stock voodoo kernel, or the kernels splash screen. Now hold three buttons, volume up, down and power until you see the Vibrant screen again, release the power button until the recovery screen comes up. Do what you need to do in recovery. When finished go to either advanced or voodoo, depends on the kernel, and reboot to download. Use odin to flash chainfires cf-root kernel in the pda slot. Don't check or un-check anything in odin just click pda select kernel.tar and click start.

The problem I can fix which is actually quite simple. Place the power control widget on the desired screen. Pull down your pull down menu and toggle say gps, because it's quickest, and magically the controls on the power control widget will appear.
