Here is a clear method..

1. Download the 2.2 kernel overstock and a 2.3 kernel and put it on the root of you sd card..

2. Download sgs kernel flasher from the android market.

3. Open kernel flasher and select flash new kernel. Choose the overstock 2.2

4. The phone will try to reboot, but will hang at the flash screen. Pull battery and use the 3 button combo method to get into recovery. ( if you don't know how to do this part... odin to a 2.2 rom read read read until u get more familiar with the different ways or flashing roms. )

5. If you can do the 3 button combo, congrats! you are in recovery. Flash what you need to, or make any changes you want to from there.

6. Once you are done doing what u need to do then Flash the 2.3 kernel from recovery to boot back to this rom. Or flash another 2.2 rom u have saved on your sd card if you want to leave this one.

7. Your attitude sucked in your post, might want to have a little more patience when u are doing things like this. The OP put a great amount of time and energy in this rom, and making it very easy to navigate. You just have to read..

Not only the OP. But the THREAD AS WELL.

CHEERS!

Guys who run this ROM for few days, how is battery holding up? And how does this play with FFC and video chat apps?
[Vibrant Android Development] mulcahyd:
Can I flash it from a 2.2 rom. And do I have to flash a kernel too via clkwrkmod. ?
[Vibrant Android Development] N_B:
I'm no expert, so listening to me would be stupid, but here's what I'd do from a 2.2 ROM:

1. Boot to recovery

2. Disable Voodoo

3. Reboot, wait for file system conversion

4. Boot to recovery

5. Wipe, flash, reboot

6. Pray for no boot-loop (or world peace)

7. Once booted, wait 15 min, Reboot

8. Let sit a few min, sign into market/gmail, let sit few min

9. Convert to ext4 with included app, reboot

10. install SetCPU - OC to 200/1200 (or 200/1420)

11. Get the netflix apk from somewhere

12. Watch Archer
[Vibrant Android Development] IronWolve:
After 3 flashes, finally got this rom running. Had to odin between each try. No idea why even a fresh odin it wouldn't install properly.

Then the weird graphics when it boots, bunch of colored hash lines. Video is hit or miss. I guess this is the "Rainbow"ing people are mentioning.

Looks like it could be a winner, but the gfx problems are concerning.
[Vibrant Android Development] N_B:
I had to install this because the guy next to me has a G2 and has been bragging about having Netflix...

So...I might as well report how things went. I did the steps I mentioned above - with the addition of flashing cmenard's "1.42 + rainbow + camera works" kernel using the included SGS Kernel Flasher app. (I use my camera a lot - and rainbows on boot don't bother me).

Everything went well. VERY nice looking ROM. Boot animation is my favorite to date (everyone knows this is important because you can't impress chicks without a good bootanim)

Ran into a little minor lag from time to time - but also found that the TW launcher runs smoother for me than the other. No heat issues as of yet.

Email, gmail, messaging, calls, audible, bluetooth [calls and media], data, wifi, camera, taking/playing video (2nd highest res) and various other things I do on a regular basis all work...and Netflix - works like a charm - the kids watched shows on my phone instead of reading books tonight :)

Battery life...c'mon - condition your battery if you plan to use this for more than a day or two, and when your battery needs charging - charge it - and be happy - you're running gingerbread and netflix on your Vibrant! :cool:

Nice ROM - thanks for sharing it, and thanks for all the hard work (all contributors)!
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Always good to get positive feedback.

Next release promises to be even better. You will definitely be able to put that Netflix to its full potential soon. I'm running an incomplete build without any tweaks just pure stock with just a few graphical mods and it's already pretty quick, Market download/install in like a second no lie. Also Simone has a surprise for the I9000 users and I certainly hope that it will work for us more on that in the coming days though.

Anyone not already running this get on it now because the next version can only be installed if you are already running Gingerbread. No worries though as I will be leaving the current version up as well.

Stayed tuned all.
[Vibrant Android Development] lagunas11:
Dam the battery life is awesome!!! But what i really hate its that my phone says its 100% charged and when i unplug it it goes from 100 tp 93,98,97 and 88!! What should i do or whats wrong with this rom???
[Vibrant Android Development] lagunas11:
And does this rom have themes???
[Vibrant Android Development] tomasitoc:
@EB70

Will the gps be fix in a future release?
[Vibrant Android Development] tomasitoc:
Can anybody be kind enough to post the original kernel that came with the simply galaxy?

I tried another kernel, and it is randomly booting up my phone. I want to revert back to the original kernel

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] daffyno:
it works quite well, but i noticed that there are lag....

do i have to change kernel? if yes, what do u suggest? i would the best performance/battery....

thx a lot :)
[Vibrant Android Development] kyle51:
when charging unplug when it says 100 then unplug, if it isnt 100 plug it in again and repeat this till it stays at 100 then use the battery calibration app in the op

or when it says 100 leave it on charge for an extra 30 min - 1 hour so it stays at 100 when unplugged then use the battery calibration app
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
The kernel is in the op Haddon section.
[Vibrant Android Development] BossMan809:
This looks very promising. I was tempted to flash but I always use my gps. Can't wait until the fixes come for the next release =]
[Vibrant Android Development] tomasitoc:
@EB70,

thank you very much. made my phone good again.....

I was able to get the GPS working back in 3.2 update1 (I think).

I want to try flashing back and try the headset fix. Can I use this headset fix with it?
[Vibrant Android Development] Wearespacepeople:
Hey guys, I'm about to flash this Rom however I want to ask a noob question. If I have a kernel that is not stock (it's called Overstock I believe) should I revert back to stock? Should I flash the Kernel for this Simply Galaxy Rom first? Sorry, just want to be sure I'm not walking into a land mine.

I will be flashing from Bionix 1.3 w/ overstock Kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] naughtyboy119:
You should be able to flash back to 2.2 without problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
You should be fine. I use overstock as my 2.2 kernel of choice to flash back and forth.
[Vibrant Android Development] buggzero:
@explodingboy

I am happy to report that I followed your instructions to the T. I actually had no problems on the first try. Good job on this release.

It seems pretty clear in your OP that you do not have to flash a new kernel, but if one so desired to do so, you put the steps in. Occasional rainbow screen on boot, that you stated was normal. That's about it.

GPS also you did note as an issue, however with the absence of the bootloader, you can't just start flashing little fixes here and there. I really haven't been successful in flashing any updates or mods on top of the rom. It seems I am going to have to become more familiar with the grip of tweaking tools you put on there. Is the GPS something you plan to address in one of your later updates?

Thanks for all your hard work!
[Vibrant Android Development] lucky 69:
hi all just wondering about this .on the other fryo rom 2.2 i was on, it had a mobile tethering . it was cool and worked very well.wanted to know if we will see it in the gingerbread roms or this one? i used it for my sons ipod lol. i am on this rom now thats why im posting it here .great work guys :D thankyou for the info

[Vibrant Android Development] rakeshchn:
Has anyone been using FFC with video chat apps like Tango, Fring and Gtalk on this ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] Wearespacepeople:
Right so I just flashed this Rom and I've seem to run into a problem. The phone is trying to boot but it's just looping. I see the Vibrant logo and then some garbled looking rainbow and then it just restarts this process over and over. Any ideas? Think I went wrong somewhere :/
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
I don't have ffc but when I talked to cmenard about using the kernel he mentioned that he added support for it to go with the included new gtalk app.

Can anyone confirm working?
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Use odin to flash a 2.2 kernel only the use three buttons to get into recovery and reflash. Should be ok after that.
[Vibrant Android Development] Wearespacepeople:
I used odin to flash a 2.2 kernel and that got me out of the endless loop, however CWR seems to be non-existent. I'm unsure what to do next, I'm in the Android System Recovery at the moment. At the recovery screen got some red text that reads "E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10 (Invalid Argument) E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:" and also "copy default media content failed".

btw thanks for your help so far.

edit* used odin to get back to stock... gonna try again
[Vibrant Android Development] CM Wave:

Coming fron a 2.2 rom... You don't have to disable voodoo or anything. The rom has voodoo enabled.

Just boot to recovery,wipe data and dalvik and install like any other rom. I always rewipe afterwards but you don't really have to. Let it sit 15 mins after that, then reboot. Then have a good time.

Netflix works without any trickery. Just download n play.
[Vibrant Android Development] CM Wave:
Sweet, thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] tennandcoz1:
Download Rom wipe data flash and enjoy.you don't have to odin,but my be a good idea too.

Yes download and play.and the quality is unreal.netflix is the bomb on this.great job

i just tried to use the gtalk app, but only got rear camera...going to try some stuff and will report back

any suggestions are welcomed
[Vibrant Android Development] Wearespacepeople:
Not that anyone cares! But I did manage to get the rom working :) looks pretty nice so far I'm digging it. However I come bearing more noobness. When I try to install apps not from the market I'm getting a security message saying I can't install apps not from market.
[Vibrant Android Development] drew2000:
Go to "Settings" then "Applications" then make sure the "Unknown sources" is checked and all should be good after that for you.

[Vibrant Android Development] Wearespacepeople:
Thank you sir

edit* just when I thought everything was smooth, that damn rainbow screen is popping up in a lot of places. Most notably over my video when I try to watch anything on Netflix.
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Just give your phone like 5 minutes after boot. If that doesnt help reboot and wait. Small price.
[Vibrant Android Development] drew2000:
So true...so true...Lovin the Ginger thanks again explodingboy70 and your patience is commendable to say the least!

Its okay ive been playing with this over a month now and some of you only a few days. Glad there are others here that have also been using this and are able and willing to help.
[Vibrant Android Development] jstevenson1017:
I love this rom... my only issue so far is battery life. Is there anything I can do to help that? I already reconditioned...
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Give it some time to settle in and do the plug 100 unplug plug 100 unplug repeat until you get a true 100 unplugged when you calibrate.
[Vibrant Android Development] tanisloray:
I was reading up on this elsewhere and apparently it's something that GB does. After it is charged up, it will stop charging and will not recharge until it is unplugged and replugged in.

I am using rc3.3 when I load back to recovery mode the phone freeze At open screen. Can not go to recovery Mode to update file.zip. how can I fix this problem. This ron is awesome. Please help me to fix it. Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] drew2000:
Here is a helpful post

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13773947&postcount=1316

UPDATE:

I needed to flash the RC 3.3 update 1 myself, I had everything working fine before with the "fixes" but I wanted a clean install so this is what I just did...

1) Using SGS Kernel Flasher I flashed Overstock 2.4.1 it rebooted and when I saw the "Overstock" screen I pulled my battery and used the 3 button method to get into recovery no problem.

2) Then I did the factory reset (clear data) and cleared the dalvic cache.

3) Next I picked the RC 3.3 update 1 zip from my sd card while still in recovery and let it finish then reboot, bam fresh ROM and all is good.

I hope with the link above and my basic directions you have found some help..........it does work just finished myself and now I will be setting it back up again.

UPDATE 2:

Not that quadrant scores really have any real value but I am getting 1890 with SetCPU OC at 1200 max and 200 min with the ROM after loading all my apps and finishing my set-up.....sure is damn sweet!!! Running smoooOOOoooth as Butter! Excellent work explodingboy70 as always..........

cheers

[Vibrant Android Development] Graph.Two:
im not exactly sure what happened but im coming from Bionix-V 1.3.1. I wiped/factory rest, flashed and now im stuck in a boot. Its the vibrant screen then a bunch of color. Ive tried to re-enter into recovery mode but ive had no luck... as soon as im done releasing the three button combo the phone just sits there on the vibrant screen. Any Ideas are greatly appreciated!!
[Vibrant Android Development] drew2000:
I think I can help on this one, I had the same problem today but just for a moment. I plugged my usb cable into the computer and into the device only after I have pulled the battery and replaced the battery using the button method to get into the download mode by having the usb plugged into the device right after I put the battery back in so I could get it into the download screen then unplug the usb cable and remove the battery then replace the battery and hit the power button. I can only tell you that after I did this it went past the rainbow screen and into booting the ROM. That is the only thing I did different and the ROM finished booting up so good luck and verify if this works for you please.

note: before I tried this I spent twenty minutes stuck at the Vibrant screen, nothing seemed to work until I tried this method. I was surprised to see the ROM boot after having all that time stuck in the Vibrant screen. Lucky is my middle name at times......LOL......................good luck!
[Vibrant Android Development] lagunas11:
Its called the rainbow... nland thats normal.. whenever you flash a new rom it always takes a long time for it to boot up or boot in or whatever... anyways thats just normal if u wiped the cache nd dalvik nd factory reset then you did everything right you could've just wait beacause if you dont you're gona end up brickin your phone so yea you did everything right.... just odin re flash it again nd wait till it takes you to the home screen BUT BEFORE YOU DO THAT DO NOT TOUCH THE SCREEN OR ANY OTHER BUTTON FOR 15 MINS after 15 mins you can configure your phone and thats it
[Vibrant Android Development] drew2000:
It is staying at the Vibrant screen not just the flash of rainbow that we have grown to love on this ROM, at least I believe he is experiencing the same problem I had when flashing RC3.3 update 1 and if not then waiting will do the trick. In my case waiting was no problem I had plenty of time waiting for it to boot before I spent the twenty minutes working on a way to get it come to life.
[Vibrant Android Development] Graph.Two:
Hey thanks for the help! but no luck... should I odin to a new kernal that is 3.1?? the only thing i can think of is that coming from the bionix rom may have had a outdated kernal??
[Vibrant Android Development] drew2000:
Odin back to stock (JFD) and then root your device then flash this kick ass ROM again, it is probably for the best to start off fresh............

right from the OP

1. Place Simply3.3Update1.zip on your internal sdcard

2. Boot into clockwork recovery

3. Perform a factory reset.

4. Select the zip file and flash.

5. Once it is finished rebooting, wait 15 minutes before doing ANYTHING!

6. NOW REBOOT AGAIN!!!

(if you used Odin to get back to stock then you can skip #3)

You can use ROM Manager to flash the ROM after you root your device

NOTE: Make sure you place Overstock 2.4.1 Kernel zip on your internal sd before you flash Simply Galaxy so you can use it to get into recovery when needed by using SGS Kernel flasher. If you have already flashed it (Simply Galaxy) and everything is working fine still take the time to place the Overstock kernel on your internal sd you will need it sooner or later. To flash a theme or updates etc......
[Vibrant Android Development] Graph.Two:
Ill update as soon as im done :) thanks for all the help!!
[Vibrant Android Development] jh180:
Im in the same boat as you are, coming from Bionix NextGen 1 running Bali 1.8.3 kernel. I did a factory reset just as the OP and once the rom finished flashing i rebooted and was stuck on a boot loop, i knew it right away but i waited the 15 min anyway, pulled the battery a few times and tried to boot into the rom and no go, im about to odin to jfd and retry.
[Vibrant Android Development] Graph.Two:
same here! I feel ya! I already odin back to stock! now im preparing to flash this rom! if you need anything let me know ill be here for a bit.
[Vibrant Android Development] jh180:
Cool thanks, Eclair is already booting though :). ill let that sit for a bit then ill re-root even though i dont need to since i still have the update.zip in my internal sd. I think ill re download the rom just to remove that as a possibility

Edit: I take it back, i do NEED to re-root. My internal SD was wiped, usually odin doesnt do that, no biggie tho
[Vibrant Android Development] Graph.Two:
hahah yeah!! it wiped everything pictures and video but oh well ill just take some more!! However, I can say I successfully made it to the Simply galaxy rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] Graph.Two:
Hey man I just wanna say thank you so much for helping me out!! I successfully made it to this rom!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! :)

Impressive battery life. I got 1 day 18 hours on the last charge.

Usage:-

WIFI was running all the time except ~1 hour on 3G.

~ 10min voice calls

~ 10 texts

~ 30 min of IM over WIFI.

~ 15 min gaming.

~ 30 min web surfing.

~ 5 min of using the camera.

All roms/kernels I tried (I tried +20 roms/kernels) didn't give me more than 1.5 days.

wifi bluetooth question

Hi explodingboy!

This ROM rocks. But I seem to have a non-issue issue. After using wifi, I am not able to use bluetooth unless I reboot. And vice versa, I have to reboot to get wifi working after using bluetooth.

Can you help me out on this?

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
The wifi is odd. You should be able to just toggle that if its not working. However you say that you get bluetooth working which is odd also. Bluetooth is a known issue with the cf-root kernel which this is based on. Most either do or dont have bluetooth not somewhere in between which it seems you have.

Suggestion is to reflash and hope that it works itself out, usually helps. A new release with no bluetooth or wifi issues at all will be up in a few days BUT its kind of a step backwards in regards to headset. The data speeds im seeing are worth having to toggle and it is already faster overall without the use of any tweaks yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] huysanhdieu:
thanks mr drew so much. i got this rom at all. but 1 small bug is i can not go to recovery mode in this rom. unless flash kernel 2.2 or over stock after that get in recovery by 3 button. it not like froyo.
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
This is the first release on a completely new build and a lot of things couldn't just be carried over. Performance came first all the little details will be worked out.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Is it possible to make everything encluding 3d gingerbread launcher that blue color, Good Rom all in all... Still running bi winning till this is stable enough...
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Yeah as more things are found I will try and implement them in future builds such as the horizontal status bar shown above. Right now its more imperative to ensure that everything works properly. Theme adjustments will be made along the way.
[Vibrant Android Development] Specialist88:
Ooo a new rc update on this? Can the flashing just be without odin and go right at it, like as always?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Thanks, is it possible to add kb5 modem from galaxy s 4g and microbes... I been flashing microbes lwp every rom so far... Dont mean to sound ungrateful but worth a shot...
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Yes if you have a modem that works flash away. Check out the op about seeing recovery. Additionally if you've changed the kernel following the OP you'll need to check the package you're going to flash. PM me if you need help and I'll get with you this evening.

Not sure about lwp I suppose the worst that can happen with that is a fc
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Can we extract it from their deodexed kb5 forum or it dont work like that... Update: I just found out from birgertime cant use galaxy s 4g modems
