Just wondering.. in battery status.. it says discharging.. it was not charging when i was using bionix but with cm7 it says discharging and battery drains.. its it normal?
[Vibrant Android Development] zombioptic:
I am so so happy with this build. My wifi doesn't jump around any more! Awesome work! Much appreciated!
[Vibrant Android Development] BM1515:
kang to nightly

I saw earlier in the thread saying you can't flash a nightly over the kang is this true and have the call audio been fixed in the latest nightly?
[Vibrant Android Development] jimmyhawk:
Flashing over kang is fine and audio is good except for the mute/unmute when receiving calls
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
That would be "Not Fixed".... *sigh*... better than no audio at all ever, but still not ready for use. I love it when people say "It's good.. except.." .. and then proceed to explain how it is broken.

Nevertheless, watching the progress with much interest from here. once that's working and GPS is working, I'll likely switch.
[Vibrant Android Development] cojonesx:
to be fair he was clarifying because of the completely broken mic issues from the previous nightly builds. When GPS and the mic issues are fixed, you will know about them I am sure, no need to keep asking
[Vibrant Android Development] jimmyhawk:
Its just a flaw in a badass piece of work. You should try it. Takes but a second to press a button twice. Big deal. Maps work fine and you can still get directions from point a to b. Who actually uses the phone like a garmin anyways. Enter from to where and read over the turns. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon. Just flash now you will be happy.
[Vibrant Android Development] jimmyhawk:
Thank you
[Vibrant Android Development] ajftl:
lmao................
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
You can't flash a pre #13 nightly over the kang rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] phantomzer0:
I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this, but, I noticed that after you have completed recording a video, that video will play fine for 2 or 3 seconds and then the audio gets way, way, way out of sync to the actual video. It's not a deal breaking bug but it is extremely annoying watching your videos back and they are all sync-jacked.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
its great isnt it? i dont think its a good thing to expose your imei like that :D
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
That happened with me too... Also, my data connection seems to be really undependable... It'll time out so much, since build 7.1
[Vibrant Android Development] jimmyhawk:
Since my wipe and reboot its been great. I'm also using kb5 modem and no probs at all
[Vibrant Android Development] funeralthirst:
that's what i thought, too. but when i plugged my headphones in after flashing 13, the voodoo icon showed up and voodoo sound started working.

but i also saw atinm talking to supercurio on twitter, but didn't really pay attention to it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Hung0702:
Can anyone confirm that the StatusBar brightness control function is broken? It worked choppily on the Kang, but does not work at all in this version. I toggled both the tweak and autobrightness on/off several times to make sure it was saving the setting correctly.

I haven't experienced this. HD video record works as it should on my end. No audio desync after 1 min. I took a video of a video and it was fine. Maybe you should reflash?
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
You have to enable it under the CyanogenSettings.
[Vibrant Android Development] Hung0702:
You missed the part where I did that.

To verify, I have the tweak enabled and autobrightness disabled.

Based on your reply, I'm assuming it works on your flash? Nightly 13? Perhaps I need to reflash, but would like confirmation from others that the problem is on my end and not due to the ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Yup, works perfectly on my phone. Maybe try and reflash?
[Vibrant Android Development] bearsfan85:
You do realize that you could have just copy and pasted a modem.bin file into /radio and rebooted right? sorry to burst your bubble but your not really showing anything special.

[Vibrant Android Development] Joy2DaWurld:
Hm I have an FFC and whenever I open up the Camera app it says "Cannot connect to camera."

I've JUST upgraded to the newest nightly
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Only if someone could clean it up some - which I finally started doing as things slowed down. I left the stuff in there to let the Voodoo Control App work, but modified the code some.
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Yes. That is what is happening now. We think we have everything enabled now, but still no love. When we moved to the Samsung RIL - we thought we had everything. It also required some gpios to get set in the kernel and we did that. The problem isn't that the driver can't be wrapped, the problem is that we don't know what it should be wrapped with so that upper layers send the correct things down and respond correctly to what it sends up because Samsung changed the RIL layer to not follow Google and GPS shouldn't be in RIL anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
Ty so much Atinm for all ur hard work and especially voodoo!

p.s anyone try cm 15???
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Actually no - I just ignore most stuff unless it is development related. I don't usually respond to tweets, it is just a way for me to update status. I respond now and then to short development things, but only if I am either interested or think it would be helpful to more people than just the person tweeting.

[Vibrant Android Development] Jasonhunterx:
Its just u i did it just now an found it with no problems try reflashing gapps
[Vibrant Android Development] jay661972:
Did not do anything at all. Did not copy and pasted a modem .bin file. Dont know how to do that
[Vibrant Android Development] ugokind:
ok

tested 15.. is quite similar to previous

so.. confirm strange issue in not obtaining ip address in wifi.. but Only WPA2

so wpa and wep is alright!

for the audio mute on/off.. I must use that method but rarely.. so in dome calls.. I never have the need .. sometimes.. yes.. bah

it's simple.. if someone say.. halo!? halo?!.. I must press mute unmute.. otherwise not.

for the battery.. no great differences with KB5 modem.

and the battery (with DATA off) goes down slowly.. about 5% in 50 min.

not a great value!

but to give test and data. must wait 2 or 3 days. to see if kernel.suspend process run .. or not!
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
Build 15 is great.. the gamma fix sharpened the screen a bit more. Still hope they add Voodoo Color in the future but this is now close enough to my own settings that I probably won't do custom kernels in the near future..

Wifi and data working perfectly.. have not tried call audio yet

Great work, CM7 team!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] davewave:
was looking through the thread but didnt see the topic. is it possible to implement the camera/lock button hack with cyanogen? and if so,how?
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
The best part about CM and nightlies is that each time I flash a new one, even if it were to be every once in a while, though I do it every time a new one comes out, it makes my phone feel like a new one each time. I love it. That feeling is the reason why Manufacturers and carriers take their time on releasing updates, if at all. I don't see myself buying a new phone for a very long time as long as CM keeps pushing out updates. Thanks CM and atinm!
[Vibrant Android Development] gbakabg:
+1
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
Problem is it can become addictive.. I feel empty after a few days of no updates and try to convince myself that it's nice to just have a working phone like most non-flashy people..but when I flash.. I feel so..so..alive!!! Kidding aside, I think I am somewhat addicted..

As far as manufacturers are concerned, in addition to the point you made about marketing I think they just don't see spending resources on OS updates as being profitable.. and they're probably right. Samsung was pretty crappy though for marketing the Vibrant as a keep-forever phone due to Android updates that clearly they were less than committed to providing. Still a damned good device!

I gave up on factory updates when Samsung released their joke of Froyo to T-Mobile USA in February. I had already rooted but never did custom ROMs to that point. That half-assed update was the final motivation for me to flash Bionix (which I still recommend to the newly rooted) and eventually to CM7. Tried MIUI for a bit but just tired of it after a while..

Cheers!
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Gotta love Sammy for making things fun =P I'll see if maybe I can help when I have time (not that Im some genius or anything) more brains is always better when tryin to figure something out. Figured you guys had been workin on it and there was other problems. Wish companies could just keep things the way they should be, why change what isnt broken?
[Vibrant Android Development] cal4877:
Man!!! This new nightlies just dont like my phone for some reason. Still no baseband. Its weird that i see alot of you complaining about calling sound issue i think most of you have to mute and unmute since cm7 came out but i never never had that issue all calling sounds has always work for me only issue with the new nightlies is the baseband.
[Vibrant Android Development] amwilliams9:
For being a unlucky number #13 proved to be quite the little surprise and now #15 is shining brightly. Running KB5 with no hiccups have not had to mute/unmute. Overall call quality is much better, that irritating echo is now gone. Volume still is low through headset but that is for another time I guess. Although smoother overall there is some lag when calling up functions, but once it gets going WOW!!
[Vibrant Android Development] ZeroIsntTheHero:
Assuming you're talking about the hack that you could previously implement through SGS Tools, the answer is no. That isn't to say that it isn't possible. Just that at the moment it isn't possible through a check box in the camera settings. I'm sure at some point it will be implemented; however, at present they have other bugs to squash that take precedence over minor UI tweaks.
[Vibrant Android Development] tsnow247:
My $.02

Trying out the ka6 modem and am surprised. Might be using this for awhile.
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
Hmm...that picked my interest once more in this ROM. Now what's left is Voodoo Color (unless it looks identical to those settings), some more stability (I can wait) and it is set for me. Thumbs up! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
The battery life while idle is great, even with the stock modem that comes with this rom. Unfortunately as soon as I start using the phone, it dramatically starts using battery. I am not sure why this is happening, but might be because of voltage? Possibly lowering the voltages for the frequencies can fix this?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
they cnt be using voltages to much different from stock, and most phones can only go so much below stock voltages (these chips can be picky)

most they could do over stock is as such

1000 -25mv

800 -50mv

200-400 @ 950mv

100 @ 925mv

thats the most widely accepted I've gotten to work, and its going to increase battery life yes, but not drastically enough that if your having insane battery drain your going to notice. Something else is probably the cause of your battery issues. Also did you recondition your battery?

other thing they could do is add frequencies which would give more steps so under medium/light load your CPU wont clock as high
[Vibrant Android Development] notverycreative:
One thing that's been bothering me about the GPS: I have two friends with Captivates and CM7 and their GPS works perfectly. If both the Captivate and Vibrant are based off the Galaxy S, why do the Captivates have working GPSes and we don't? I'm not complaining (I would hardly use it anyways), but it's been a nagging question in the back of my mind for a while now.
[Vibrant Android Development] awolbrin:
i have the same problem, all the things i did didn't fix it :( i am back to #8
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Possibly, but its widely known that CM7 doesn't have the greatest battery life yet. Other than CPU and Display, what else could be draining the battery, that wouldn't be while in sleep mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
where can you get the new kang kernel? which kernel right now has the best battery life for cm7?
[Vibrant Android Development] Pmasonfirth:
Currently running Nightly build #15 and I have to say its awesome.

The mute / unmute shuffle has gone and the I think screen looks amazingly sharper.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:

[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
There based off the Galaxy S but the Captivates use cloned I-9000 hardware and the drivers work.
[Vibrant Android Development] Kaik541:
the Vibrant uses *entirely differently* hardware for GPS. the captivate and i9000 use the same GPS. vibrant's GPS is all sorts of ****ed up in that it's intertwined with RIL (which it really shouldn't be)

kang's kernel is no longer updated as he no longer has an SGS
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Not sure, I havent gotten a chance to peek at their sources as I have a project of my own. I'll take a look and see if I can wip up an experimental kernel for some people to try and see how that goes with battery (give me a few days)
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Nice, definitely will try anything to give better battery life. Battery is the only thing that switched me back to 2.2 a week and a half ago. Came back to CM at build 13. Want CM but can't let go of 2.2 battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] thejron:
First time running cm7.

[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
I too came from CM7 several weeks ago but couldn't stand battery life on it. Until it gets stable, I won't install it again. I prefer Bionix NextGen2 with Bali until then and that combo is what I install on my friends Vibrants. No complaints ever from them.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
this rom is not the stable version, experimental versions are not perfect u know :p, i mean i just deal with the battery life,its worth all the great things packed into cm7

[Vibrant Android Development] notverycreative:
Oh, that makes sense.
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Vibrant has a different GPS chip and therefore different driver. Galaxy S is the "base model", the US carriers seem to have insisted on custom things that changed things (Captivate has the echo cancellation chip that the others don't, so Galaxy S modems don't sound as great on it as stock modems do, Vibrant has different GPS chip and Epic and Fascinate might as well be different phones altogether).

Anyone know how to get the Phone shortcut to go direct to the Dial and not contacts?

You should be flashing through the actual app. Not going into recovery mode manually.

OR install Google apps through recovery manually as well. It is found under goo.inside or something like that.

How do I get my ffc to work?
[Vibrant Android Development] ChristoA1:
If you search this thread for "ffc" you'll find instructions on copying the appropriate files from the appropriate ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] parmijo11:
Making your FFC work...

Copy the libcamera.so from the latest galaxysmtd lib files. Place it on the root of your sd card. Then go into the terminal emulator and type the following code.

su
cp /sdcard/libcamera.so /system/lib/
reboot

If it says that it already exist but camera doesn't reflect that then use the following code.

su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /sdcard/libcamera.so /system/lib/
reboot

If you have the skill to find the lib in the MTD from the Galaxy S nightly typing the code should be easy. If you don't know where to find the lib file I uploaded it to my dropbox and made a link for you to make help with this process.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12141334/libcamera.so

On a final note "Searching" will help you greatly. I struggled with this issue last week and posted a solution as did Atinm, just saying, SEARCH is your friend...
