Another way on how to do if you don't understand on how to use Root explorer or ADB command.

1. Extract the Bi-Winning V2.zip file into a folder in your computer. You will see several folders after you extract.

2. Go to System - App folder then replace the corrupt application file (.apk file) with the working one. Make sure the new .apk file name is the same with the one that you replaced.

3. Back to main folder, select all the folders and files (if any) then add to archive using winrar/winzip/any compression application tool (I used winrar) to create the ROM source again. Make sure you choose the extension as .zip.

4. Copy this "Edited" Bi-Winning ROM of your own to your phone memory.

5. Reflash your vibrant with this "Edited" Bi-Winning ROM as per normal.

Those methods that I used all this time to change boot and shutdown animations and to replace wpa suplicant file to enable adhoc connection on my vibrant. :D

Hope this help you.

Okay i keep reading about this "headphone fix" Is this fix talking about the ability to not being able to use headphones while talking on the phone? If so how can you fix this by using root explorer?
[Vibrant Android Development] orells:
You guys do know that the headphone issue is a kernel thing right? Root explorer will not help you. I have Eugene's new kernel and it is working. Sorry WH for all the posting here on this issue. You guys should head over to the overstock thread and request that feature if you want to keep that kernel.

Anyone having problems holding a wifi connection?
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
Ok so ive noticed some fishy things with this rom. One of them being that sending picture messages does not work. And if i select multiple contacts it goes nuts.

The other thing is ive recently been getting alot of lag on the phone which i wasnt plagued by with trigger or bionix.

Maybe time to go back to trigger. Bi-winning is a bit too shot out just like charlie sheeeen.
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
Ive also got all my sounds set to something with charlie sheen for kicks. This should be standard with biwinning!

"Ive got one speed, one gear, goo!"

This mms thing really has me bummed its the only thing not working with the phone. Got the gps hammered out now.

Could someone tell me how to disable keyboard backlight when tapping screen? Please.
[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
Sorry you are having these issues......maybe a bad flash? Did you follow install instructions and allow 10-15 minutes before rebooting after loading, then log into Google and allow it to sync (another 10-15 minutes) before another reboot?

I've found that for whatever reason doing this absolutely impacts the smoothness of the ROM.

I'm an obsessive flasher (of ROMS :)) like most of the folks here and the Bi-Winning ROMs are the smoothest, most stable ROM's I've ever put on my phone.

I'm still running V1 on my phone, but I was so impressed, I put V2 on my wife's phone (she was previously on the semi-official 2.2 update from T-Mobile).

Her major complaint (and I agree with her) is about the email client. It's definitely faster, but she can no longer move mail from the inbox to another folder, and is missing the "confirm on delete" option.

Looking through settings reveals a very utilitarian set of options.

I've always used Touchdown, so I have no idea what to suggest. Is there a way to go back to the old client, or somehow make the new one more functional? Not sure why things would be dumbed down like this...

Not the fault of whitehawkx.... but searching didn't turn up anything useful.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
It's because the original email app would fc when using it. So I put in another version that works but isn't quite as fancy either. The other thing is the text in it is white which makes it very easy to ready. I'll attach the email.apk from jpk would seemed to work fine without any fcs. I believe it will have the options your wife is looking for, however, The text might be a problem. It has black backgrounds and gray text... :X just to warn you. You can read it, its just dark.

If you really want swype, register at team whiskey and search for swype blackout. I remember there was a thread that had different themed swypes
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:

[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
IIRC, you will need to remove the swype files from your system using Root Explorer.

Annex posted this in response to someone in the Bi-Winning thread on EDT's site. Mine was not working either but it is now, not sure how it started working again.

"you can use the beta version and push it to the SYSTEM/APP folder and rename it to SWYPE.APK

Worked for me, plus I make a metamorph theme and was able to use that too.

Try it again, should work as long as its the beta version. I wasn't able to straight install of SWYPE, because it wants the license.

Hope that helps you out "
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Which file do i rename and put in system/apps?
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:

[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:

I had this problem and see it was not really answered for you. To get the swype beta update, you have to delete your current swype beta.apk which is in data/app (not in System/app where the regular swype .apk would be. It is called exactly com.swype.android.inputmethod-2.apk and is just above the installer .apk. Delete this and run the installer again and it should generate a license. Then curse swype for not making it clear.:)

All my received mms messages are super blurry. Does anyone know of a fix for this? I tried the mms fix included in the bible thread but it won't let me send the mms.apk to the system/app folder. (It says insufficient permissions) Please help someone!! Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
bi-winning

I remember seeing that problem way back. What method are you using to push the file? This one is supposedly non-blurry, but it's not from i9000 source, so I don't know if it will work or not. It's from UVKB5. Worth a try.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
bi-winning

Are you using Root Explorer? I don't recognize that message, but if you are, toggle the button on the top right of the screen to be able to cut/paste.:)

EDIT: Actually it's more in the center. It will say 'Mounted as r/o' then the button 'Mount R/W'
[Vibrant Android Development] cocowunsch:
Thanks! So does that mms.apk you posted previously work for this rom?? Sorry for all the questions but I'm just glad you're able to help!
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
bi-winning

Can't be sure until someone tests it. I was hoping RedTiki would. Apk's are funny. Some will work accross various roms as long as they are the same version number:) and some won't.

EDIT: BTW, what was the mms fix from the Vibrant Bible? Was it an .apk for 2.2.1, was it TW mms, or was it AOSP?
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Thanks!!! It works perfectly now!

Every things working great, except battery.

The battery on standby is horrible. I keep my phone in my pocket for about 6-8 hours (school) and i get phone calls, texts (i don't look at them like every 5 mins maybe a hour i look at the screen to see if anything's there or to look at time)

but today i went from 92% battery to 64% on standby...

reconditioned, not perfectly( gonna do it tonight again)

but any ideas?
[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
I'll try. Gotta test and figure everything out first.
[Vibrant Android Development] peecs121:
I gotta say this rom is amazing! I have zero problems with it and along with the kb5 modem my battery life is great. One question, why in all of the roms the puzzle unlock screen is the only one that makes the sound when its unlocked? Its no big deal I'm just kinda curious, cause I use the Android or Star Wars unlock.
[Vibrant Android Development] David111jr:
video calling is not working is there something that needs to be activated through sgs tools? the screen comes up you can see my video and a second later a message pops up saying unable to make video call try voice?

Any further suggestions? The email.apk you attached FC'd as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] ipnekgs:
I believe you need to call another phone with the same rom, I already have two phones and will test this weekend to see if the native video calling option works just as in Europe... saw some videos on youtube of that option working fine on the European models
[Vibrant Android Development] wendellc:
Tried this before and couldn't get it working. I posted a few days ago about getting a fix and nobody answered. I'm assuming there is no fix at the moment. I would like to use the native app rather than 3rd party app myself.
[Vibrant Android Development] ipnekgs:
oh man way to ruin it for me lol... I guess Tango it is
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Sorry, that's all I got. Weird that it FC'd. Tomorrow I'll see about ripping it out and reposting it. Maybe I posted the wrong one. Can't tonight, it's family time. :)

Unfortunately I don't have an FFC so there's no way for me to test stuff like this and fix it.
[Vibrant Android Development] ipnekgs:
just for kicks, what about if I send you an ffcv1 that I bought and never used? Just pm your address and I will send it to you ( I assume shipping costs of course)

ffcv1 works fine, just the banding is there, but tango and the rom recognizes the ffc just fine.

let me know

[Vibrant Android Development] reuthermonkey:
ditto.

I have even done the hardware GPS fix before I installed this ROM, and my accuracy was spot-on. Now it is glitchy as all hell. Sometimes it's spot on for a second, then when I try to use navigation or just simple maps for more than a few seconds, it glitches out and goes to cellular triangulation only. I've left my phone next to a window for 10 minutes without a lock on this ROM. Yet with other ROMs it would lock within 10 seconds.
[Vibrant Android Development] reuthermonkey:
sooooooo

which fix worked for that GPS?
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:

[Vibrant Android Development] reuthermonkey:
I tried both files that were posted. After reboot I get stuck on Galaxy S screen. Pull battery twice get to home screen. Then open up GPS Test and delete GPS info so it will grab the new stuff.

Seriously, I'm sitting on the home screen and after time my screen turns off, the phone starts vibrating - indicating that it's force closing startup scripts or whatever else. Didn't do this before I flashed either one of those gps "fixes".

Can't find a single satellite.

And now my device is pretty unstable. Locks up and force closes when scanning media and opening the skype app, etc.. Nice.

Seriously, I'm sitting on my home screen, and the phone keeps vibrating indicating that it's killing a bunch of scripts as they're executing their startup stuff.

I know for a fact that with every other ROM, the GPS on my phone is a dead-on instant lock.

Is it possible for anyone to be specific? Which GPS files worked? I've seen so many GPS "fixes" - 90% of which don't work - i'd love to have someone specifically say "this file actually works".
[Vibrant Android Development] compuguy1088:
Same here...gps doesn't work. It doesn't even "see" any of the satellites.
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
To get GPS working well for me on my phones, I used

GPS Status went to tools--manage a-gps state--Reset in gps status.

Then I used SGS tools to apply the GPS Fix.

Then I rebooted to recovery and applied the s.gpsfix rebooted opened gps status and waited for a fix, under 20 seconds.

I've also done the hardware fix on both my phones. though I see no evidence my phones needed it.

If you've already applied 50 other fixes and firmware updates to get your gps working you are probably just F'ed though...
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
Appled the sgs fix updae again thru clockworkmod and gps locks on quicker than my eyes lock on your sista.

Question for whitehawk or anyone who knows this..

When ur downloading a file, it shows the arrow in the status bar uptop, but when u drag the top menu down, the download isnt there. Doesnt show percentage or anything.

But once it installs it shows on the drop down menu. Is ths a 2.2.1 bug?
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
the one that I used was in the OP. Maybe your download was corrupted and it ruined something in your phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] lolcopter:
rom has been really great, up until the last few days

i was getting constant force closes in maps yesterday. and this morning this phone doesn't seem to wake up very quickly. sometimes like 10 seconds after i hit the button. don't really know what happened :confused:

[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
Battery and V2

Firstly, this is my favorite ROM and I had been running V1 since it came out with no issues.

I upgraded to V2 a few days ago following the usual guidelines (100% battery etc) and have gone through several charge cycles, yet my battery life is just being killed.

Today I removed my phone from charger at around 9am, did a few emails, send a couple of text messages, then used the GPS for a trip which was about total of 90 minutes each way.

My battery died on the way back at 1:30pm!

I have an 1800mah battery.

The only new apps I am running since V1 are weatherbug (set to update every 4 hours) and Groupon.

Could it be one of these apps?

I looked in System Monitor history and 8.6% was sensorserver_ya, which of course is the GPS, but to kill my battery that fast? I literally watched the battery % go from 34% to zero in about 30 minutes

You can see from the snapshot clearly where I was using GPS and how it was like a downhill ski champion!

http://i980.photobucket.com/albums/ae285/Globespy/snap20110421_134943.png

Any ideas?
[Vibrant Android Development] reuthermonkey:
90 minutes of GPS use? Yeah, that's going to kill your battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
LMAO!!!!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
But so fast? I don't get it.

I have standalone portable GPS unit for hiking and it lasts for hours and hours.

Additionally, I was using Sweet Honey before I went to Bi-Winning and one hour of GPS would use about 25%, not over twice that. That ROM was using overstock 1.5.

GPS aside, my battery vanished much faster with other general usage as can still be seen on my screenshot when the phone is not being used at all.

Something's not right and I'm not LMAO ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Your GPS (portable one) does just that, GPS.

Your phone however, is doing multiple things at once, and probably has a shorter battery life than your GPS anyways.

GPS tracking, a signal goes up to a satellite and you get a signal back telling you where you are, thats obviously going to take a bunch of battery, specially if your using it fpr 90 minutes non-stop.
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
Well, thanks to T-Mobile's ineptitude I have discovered the secret to these 40+ hour battery lifes. NO DATA! Yes, T-Mobile has been unable to provide me any mobile data for the last week. So I turned off mobile packet data & set GSM only, since I couldn't use it anyway. Phone only, and wifi on only when the screen is on or phone charging. With my moderate use that used to net about 12 hours, I now have an estimated 40 hour battery life, LOL.

So... to get better battery life, next time T-Mobile offers a really good rate plan, switch to it, watch your data break, lose the great rate plan in an attempt to FIX your data, and then accept your new wifi-only life.
[Vibrant Android Development] David111jr:
I tried flashing the second gps nothing. used Sgstools to apply the gps fix will test it in the a.m.
