OK thanks Montex.061

Anyway Ive just discovered, after going back to Froyo that I still have the same ole problem with the VM Icon, which now informs me that, it isn't a SH-GB issue, but a corruption in one of my files that is hard written to my internal memory I need to root out the file causing this, Even though I did a complete data wipe, everything, and still irregardless, I still have the VM Icon notification! Grrrrrrrrr!!! :[

I hope everything I saved in Titanium and ROM manager wasn't wiped as well!

Anybody know where the location and name is of the folder that would contain this file that tells the phone it has a VM message and root it out??

I'm assuming that would be the only way to cleaning this out! Unless there is another method to clean out everything and the corrupted file and start all over again.

BTW when I upgraded to SH 5.0 from SH 1.0 I didn't realize that there was a message Icon alert, and when I flashed over to 5.0 it musta written into the memory, and it wont clear out now, so any suggestions on how to get this cleared out before I start all over again would be a huge help!

I love the 5.0 SH ROM, and if I could get everything working right Id be elated!

With this info I'm gonna say this is what we call ghosts. Even wiping every time you flash a new rom some things get left behind. Occasionally a full format of the internal SD is required. Check out brick'd's Ginger Zen thread second post for steps to do a complete system clean.

EB

Hey is there anything we can do about this battery problem where it stops charging at 100%? I have flashed quit a few captivates with CONTINUUM 6.0 and they don't have this problem.

The problem with voicemail is not Rom exclusive...I had the same thing happen to me on stock and 2.2 roms before. You seriously may have to wait it out. You can try reflashing the rom but some have said that doesn't fix the issue. I think it's actually a voicemail issue. The last time I had the problem it was because there was a voicemail in my box, but everytime I checked my voicemail it said it was empty. Then it finally told me it was there one day and once it was checked the icon was gone.
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
simply honey

Nope, I wish there was. I'm sure a lot of others wish the same. I've given up for the time being and will take the best that I can get then plan to buy a larger capacity battery. I've realized after a lot of reflashing, wiping, manually pushing .apks and downloading form the market, that my googlesearch problem is really a voicesearch problem. Haven't solved it yet even though I'm now using the one posted some 50 pages back. I'll give a Titanium restore one more try...
[Vibrant Android Development] Thelgow:
For 4th of July I had a similar issue. Icon wouldnt go away. after 3 days I was baffled. I just called and left myself a message and when I checked it, the icon went away..

sorry of becoming little out of topic, i'm using this rom+acid tweaks+ OC 1.2 ghz , i believe that vibrant got powerful gpu (powervrsgx 540), i ran neocore and yes i got 64.4 fps, but when i ran test ,everything when the robots firing just choppy, i mean it's like no 60+ fps at all, i don't know if i got defective vibrant (i hope i'm not), but compared to my bro's phone with 2nd snapdragon, his gpu seems can handle 3d much much better, i even ran gangstar miami vindication, backstab, both lag as hell @1ghz , sorry again if i'm out of topic, i just want to know i got defective vibrant or something :)
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Is your "bro" running gingerbread and is it official on his phone. GB doesn't render 3d very well especially on a version not Intended for this phone.

Possible solution try chainfires 3d app free on the market.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Quick question. Per the instructions in the OP, it says to disable any lagfix. Is this required even if you ODIN back to stock and choose "re partition" ? Doesnt re partition disable the lag fix? Also, what does it mean by "You may now proceed to the MediumOR Large." ?

Went from VM Problem to Hardbricking my Phone

Well in my quest to start all over again, to rid myself of the VM problem and get rid of the Ghost as EB indicated.

I really f--ked up badly!! Didnt ever think I would ever go past a soft brick situation!! WRONG!!!

Has anyone successfully done this??

Link: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1220181

I finally hard-bricked my Vibrant, and I'm wondering if this has been accomplished, instead of sending it to a specialist to JTAG it the traditional way!!

Im trying to see if I can resurrect it myself instead of losing it for a week!

And yes I'm aware of the One guy here in the states that does JTAGing, but Id be seriously outa work for a week as my phone is my work/life line, cuz I'm an Independent contractor, so its not about the money Id spend but the time down without a way to work/communicate, I haven't contacted TMO yet and told them it was hosed using the Kies method to upgrade it to Froyo. Wish I never had done that!! Should've known better, didn't see/read any post about the horrors of using Samsungs KIES program until it was too late!!!

I was trying to purge a SH 5.0 install that went bad, I flashed back to stock Eclair. Then went to Froyo, But thats when I developed a problem with boot looping after doing Froyo, so I tried the KIES program to go to "FROYO" and that's when It bricked!!!

Anyways its bricked hard, and I'm wondering if this has actually been done successfully!

And any tips that I might need to get the Heimdall Program to actually detect it thru the USB method, would be awesome! Even though it wont turn on!!

Link to the thread: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1220181
[Vibrant Android Development] cannonbomb:
I did the same thing. I'd find a phone for cheap on craigslist and send the vibrant in to be jtag'd. Then resell the spare.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Your link there is busted, but I am assuming you went the traditional methods to get into DL mode? Remove battery to ensure its off, replace battery, and if you're on the GB bootloaders, hold volume up while you plug into PC. If on froyo bootlaoders, hold the entire volume rocker down while plugging into pc. If that doesn't force it, you may want to try the usb jig.
[Vibrant Android Development] dseldown:
Bricked Hard

Well that's weird, the link works on my end, but not in the post I put up!

Well here it is again, hope it works this time!!

Link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1220181

And yes "Bricked" I tried all the traditional methods to get into DL mode!

Problem is its Hard Bricked, NO- TURNY- ONIEEE

I have a DL Jig from Tech Mobile and its not doing a thing as well!

NO LIGHTS OR Power, NOTHING complete dead, no led's when pluged in, not a peep or any signs of life, IT is truly hard bricked, this time-- NOT Soft bricked as your instructions would've worked on!

Anyway if you guys can get to that link its a guy claiming he JTAG'd an SGS 4g using the USB to mini-USB cord and the Heimdall program to get to the CPU or relevant chip to reinstall the Boot.bin and the SBL.bin files to resurrect a hard bricked phone or phones as he claims he's done this many times!

And of course at that point it would at least power up to get it back into DL mode so I could start with JFD eclair and rebuild my phone again!

Was looking to see if anyone here has actually done this, Ive got everything I think I need, was just waiting for any other input before I dig myself even deeper, before I proceed and try this!!! It seems a real stretch to me, but then again, why would this guy who seems to know what he's talking about, post BS. so like my signature says below, If I don't try, then nothing happens!! ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Yeah um kies bad but you learned that the hard way.

So more info. Is it doing anything. Will the keys light up? Can you get to dl mode?

NM just saw your second post. I'd plug it in and let it sit a couple hours the pull the battery and let it sit a couple more then try again getting to FL mode.

NM just saw your second post. I'd plug it in and let it sit a couple hours the pull the battery and let it sit a couple more then try again getting to FL mode.

BTW: this is the link I tried to get working, about Jtaging with a USB cord

LINK: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1220181

OK EB , Ill try that 1st, I assume it was a typo about "FL" and instead you mean DL Mode???

If I learned anything from my 54 years in this ****ty world, Its always try the simple and obvious first, before rebuilding the damn engine from scratch!

In this case, I'm slowing down enough to reason this out, and listen to great advice from all who really know!! :p Thanx ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I happened upon that thread searching around after the link didn't work earlier and read through it. Seems legit IMHO, and definitely worth a shot if the steps EB gave you don't work. At the point where you are friend, it can't get worse than it already is short of fixing it with a hammer. Good luck, and keep us posted, I'm interested to hear if you can resurrect the dead.

[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
go to a tmobile store and tell them that you need a loaner because you had to ship your phone for repairs. they charge you for a cheap phone but if you return it within the alotted time then they refund your money. Kies is bad...... mkay?
[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
there is an unbrickable mod for captivate that you might want to look into. I haven't researched it yet. I would imagine its no different for a vibrant but who knows...... There I go talking to myself again
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Does this ROM have the issue where /datadata only has 172MB for storage?
[Vibrant Android Development] draigons:
I had this happen to me recently and it was weird, the phone would use the battery and would feel like it was on, but the screen and non of the light/screen lit up. I told t-mobile the phone they sent was defective, it happened right after replacing a phone for screen issues. They reluctantly sent me the new on, after fighting with a rep for 45min, called back and someone sent me the replacement. Be careful they may try and sell you on one of their bottom of the line phones, don't bite. Just call back, unfortunately the reps all say different things which can be really a pain in the a**. Good luck!

Anyone using ffc on this ROM? I just removed the paint from mine but I haven't ordered the camera yet. I would like to know if anyone is having issues with the camera (if you have it installed) Please let me know. Thanks

I have been using ffc with this ROM. There is no issue with the ROM so far. Only issue with the camera driver (known issue, banding for v1 and yellow spot for v2).
[Vibrant Android Development] EpicSurge:
does 5.0 have non increasing ringtone?

[Vibrant Android Development] jrafael:
From recovery mount/storage => format cache, then under advance wipe dalvik

reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] smali26:
my battery keeps dying within the hour. i ran the battery calibration and rebooted.

i think there is a process running in the background that is causing it.

Not quite sure.

i will do some more research and post my findings.

BTW. Great ROM and thanks for all for the hard work.

It is greatly appreciated.
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Within the hour???? Bad battery?!
[Vibrant Android Development] aamir123:
Does anyone know of a good replacement kernel? the one included with this rom its giving me problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] Saint787:
Check the sensors. GPS and motion sensors dont turn off automatically and they eat the battery like there is no tomorrow.
[Vibrant Android Development] 啊喔鹅咦呜鱼:
hey guy ,you are still living with vibrant ,

glad to see you,

i'm still using your port juwe 1.9,

i didn't like a samsung 2.3,cuz there hasn't a good kernel,

and only bullet kernel stop update for a long time.

so i have already to port ultimate V8.2 JS8 to my vibrant today,

if i have problems ,you can help me to work out it.
[Vibrant Android Development] RobZarzecki:
I think I remember reading here to leave the GPS setting on always and that on this ROM it only activates when a program needs to use it,i.e. cardio trainer, navigation etc.
[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
EB...... yo man I think going backwards is only going to set you back... literally. You guys are doing such a great job and I would just hate for you to go back only to find out that the problems we have had weren't rom related at all. Dan_Brutal from Einherjar Team says in his OP for one of his roms that getting soft reboots from 30% and below is a known issue that is KERNEL related.... What do you think? if that is the case that would explain alot... I have flashed GB roms on several captivates that have the Talon Dev kernel and they don't seem to have any of the dumb problems we have. No reboots, no stop charge at 100% I wish I was smart enough to tackle kernels myself.... I'm willing to bet my left nut that with the proper kernel tweaks... This rom would be perfected.... Its so close! its fast and smooth.... It looks amazing.... battery isn't exactly as good as 2.2 but hey you guys have done a hell of a job with making that better already! so close man.... so close!
[Vibrant Android Development] thachosenone:
If it's kernel related, I hope someone takes on the task of optimizing the bullet kernel. I know without the proper source code for the vibrant it will be very difficult.

Has cmenard stopped developing for the vibrant?
[Vibrant Android Development] aamir123:
I flashed the talon kernel and it ran smoothly but I has to adamson because of button remapping and headset not working during calls.
[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
yeah I flashed it once as well and as soon as I ran into the different button remapping I said screw it because I just didn't feel like the headache
[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
If I recall..... Cmenard did the vibrant kernels simply because he could... maybe we need to get some friends from the captivate forums to help us out
[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
Lol if you get the galaxy s2.... you may be seeing me in the near future. but anyways you will be missed. thanks for all your support. make sure to drop in on us classics. lol good luck with the future phone space man!
[Vibrant Android Development] HaCkEdUpViB:
what did the update to 5 beta involve. isaw a blue keyboard... i was getting alot of reboots randomly and it started getting glitchy when you didnt reboot every 12 hours and reception was iffy.... probably because im on att. i flashed the updated version and it seems better. not glitchy and laggy
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
As soon as the update for the rom is ready, I haven't had much time between school, work and family, I'll also release a test kernel. My teammate Simone is back from holiday and has been trying to perfect the browser. I don't want to release the kernel until a clean build is ready as its causing reboots on the present build. If anyone reads Simones thread a SH Talon kernel has been doing very well and Simone was nice enough to include the Vibrant fixes. It is JVR based and I'm hoping for the best. Should be very soon.
[Vibrant Android Development] peecs121:
So the Talon kernel wont work at all?

Simply Honey 5.1 w/ 1.2 Bullet kernel. Badass Rom \m/
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
The talon kernels publically available should work w remapping and sound broken again and no gps. The kernel I've been testing has all the fixes and updates. I'll release a test version along side the next release. Hopefully Simone and I can resolve any last bugs and knock this one out of the park, again. :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
simply honey

I think I finally have tracked down the true cause of my fcs when I use the voicesearch button in the goole search widget. I noticed that it only opens the stock browser which I am not using. I remember checking a box in the Dolphin mini browser to 'use as default' for this action. Voice search will give results, but as soon as I touch the screen to scroll, the top portion disappears and I get a reset. Haven't done anything about it yet, but I bet getting rid of Dolphin mini or changing the defaults will finally fix the problem. The tweaks posted a while back made everything just a little better too. I notice transitions animations are a little smoother, and most browser page loads are really fast.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
that sounds..... absolutely incredible.... thank you both! I have a good feeling about this one

[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
I'm not sure if it will still try to run in the background or if that's only when trying to turn it back on.
[Vibrant Android Development] RobZarzecki:
Eb, do you recommend us sticking with the simply honey tweaks you and simone created or advise using the recent acid tweaks?
[Vibrant Android Development] draigons:
Try and reset your applications delete the cache and reboot. You could also try deleting your cache partition.
[Vibrant Android Development] Majin_X:
this goes along with my concerns..... what if its not your build thats causing the reboots?? but the kernel that is the problem? I kinda want to test that kernel with the 5.1 build just to see
[Vibrant Android Development] CatfishKnight:
I wasn't having any reboots or drop calls while talking to people until I flashed the acid-tweaks. It seemed to run smoother and faster and the internet browser seemed faster. But it started to fc and drop calls so I restored a previous backup and it is working fine now.
[Vibrant Android Development] RobZarzecki:
Thanks Catfish,I also undid the acid tweaks too...honey runs fine with the tweaks already given

Thanks for the input

All was good until 10 mins ago and now its in some retarded mini loop.

At the lockscreen, I slide a button, desktop shows for about 5 secs, then it goes off and goes right back to the desktop.

Trying to change lockscreen as I put it to 4 tab yesterday and I cant do it in those 5 secs.

I even held power to do recovery, the samsung animation started, froze, screen went black and then popped back to lock screen. now the screen just goes off and on by itself here. in 15 mins the batterys gone down 20%.

Wiped the dalvik, still doing it.

Something must be really up with the 4tab lock.

I managed to get in long enough to change it to miui, it resets and back to 4 tab.

I get in and disable lockscreens, resets, back to 4tab.

wiping all data now as last resort.
[Vibrant Android Development] smali26:
will there be anymore updates coming soon?
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Yes tonight as a matter of fact.
[Vibrant Android Development] simone201:
Good to see that u release also the update, mate...;)

It will be based on 5.0 released by me yesterday right?
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Yes also with the Talon kernel and Bullet available. Releasing three versions for Vibrant but different than I9000. 5 Locks, 9 Locks or 10 Locks. I've seen reports of the JKay lockscreen "maybe" causing some problems so the 9 Locks won't see that if it is true. Going completely with your tweaks and settings as I'm sure they will be best along side the SH Talon kernel. As the car dealer down the street says "It's gonna be Huuuugggggge!!"
[Vibrant Android Development] simone201:
Maybe i should build an update for Talon SH Vibrant with aall my latest mods of official Talon SH T5x
