[Vibrant General] treyvaporizer:
Yea CM7 is amazing
[Vibrant General] helikido:
Isnt asgard also really good?
[Vibrant General] Abu-7abash:
Yes, it is.
[Vibrant General] helikido:
what about simply honey？
[Vibrant General] Abu-7abash:
It's good too.
[Vibrant General] Emama:
lol :rolleyes:
[Vibrant General] Longcat14:
There are only about 2-3, but CM7 is by far the best.

Be warned, there is some battery drainage, but if you can get past that, AMAZING GB ROM.
[Vibrant General] Chortles:
SOME battery drainage? At one point it was draining out while in the charger!
[Vibrant General] bobshute:
Asgard, CM7, Simply Galaxy all good but all have problems. Battery, GPS, rainbows.

I'm tempted to try the I9000 bootloaders and risk a brick to fix some of the stuff.

What I would like to know is why the captivate folks can port JVB to their phones and have working GPS and we can't? They also flash the I9000 bootloaders.
[Vibrant General] treyvaporizer:
I heard something about how the vibrant is the only phone that had the physical GPS changed from the i9000. The other variants kept the same one. So we have no way of knowing how to fix that without hardware evaluation. Correct me if I'm wrong
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
it's not a risk, it's guaranteed.
[Vibrant General] bobshute:
LMAO..Yeah probably
[Vibrant General] oka1:
I am using Simply V3 and well ........... I have found it remarkable but does not bench as fast as some other 2.21 roms...... I not important to me. I do get some GPS (at least within 100 ft) but I do not need this as I have this in my car. But wow nice rom....... boots fast too !!!
[Vibrant General] birch25:
CM7 is really fast and very stable but the battery drain is so bad that I can't recommend it to anyone who isn't going to be near a charger most of the day. My phone would drop to 10% by lunch.

I like Asgard a lot. The battery life is much better (unplugged it at 6 AM today, after moderate use, it's 10:30 PM and it's at 34%) and I enjoy TouchWiz 4.
[Vibrant General] bbm21:
I have i9k bootloaders it fixes rainbow and recovery issues
[Vibrant General] movieaddict:
so lets forget cm7 for now would u think simply honey is better or asgard???
[Vibrant General] Abu-7abash:
Juwe's port I say. Smoothest than any other GB rom I've tried, and I've tried them all. Plus, no bugs at all. Except the GPS ofcourse but I never used it anyway.
[Vibrant General] stanton93:
Haaha .. lol. I was about to flash cm7 on my phone but abandoned that idea after reading this..

[Vibrant General] Jasonhunterx:
You should I highly recommend it that's a bad ass rom I like it better than cm7 an it has been out for shorter period of time an it has touchwiz 4.0 I like it better than sense an it's smooth
[Vibrant General] kawkab:
simply galaxy is good
[Vibrant General] unikuser:
cm7 is very good
[Vibrant General] mobiask:

[Vibrant General] decoyrock:
I'm trying out Simply Honey and its pretty awesome. Though I can say I have the battery drainage problem and have experienced it twice in two days. Even after calibrating the battery, while plugged in from the morning it says 100% but once I unplugged it, it dropped to 56% right away. Going to try and calibrate the battery again today and see how it goes.

Awesome rom as I just tried out Netflix and it works!
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
CM7. Don't have any battery problems. Phone idle for 5 hours only lost 8%.
[Vibrant General] Mannymal:
I'm looking into Asgard to replace CM7 because I'm tired of having to mute/unmute. I have a few questions:

1.) What is the "Rainbow effect"? Is it something very detrimental that is worth messing the camera to remove?

2.) Does this ROM have BLN or LEDNotification support?

3.) Other than GPS, is there any other flaw?
[Vibrant General] Abu-7abash:
1. the rainbow is basically a ****ed up screen preview you get mostly on the start up of every GB rom, that was before. Now there's kernel that fixed the rainbow on the expense of video and camera. You can't play/use any of those when running a non rainbow kernel. Yet you can use those along with everything else (except the GPS ofcourse) when flashing the rainbow kernel.

2.Not sure but I think yes it does.

3. Check the rom's thread for that. Many things were reported/fixed.
[Vibrant General] defconoi:
the problem with CM7 roms is that the battery voltage does not reach the point that Official vibrant roms reach, mine reaches 4300 on stock, cm7 it reaches about 4100
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twisted galaxy s:
I rebooted earlier today no issues till then. I couldn't help notice the phone was stupid fast! "Still smiling like a kid in a candy store". So naturally the first thing that popped in my head was quadrant. I was shocked. Scores between 650 & 700. Now I realize quadrant isn't the end all be all of benchmarks. But being a mechanic by trade. When an engine starts running better than it ever has you better get rid of the car! Has anyone experienced this before or have any ideas? Thanks for your time.

Apologies to those of you who come accross this thread in the anticipation to see an absolute killer of a boot animation, but I am afraid I have a noob question for you all.

I can see a lot of different boot animations in the roms that I have tried it today (my first time doing this ****), and I found some really amazing ones and some that are just pants.

What are the best boot animations in your opinions?

Furthermore, how easy is it to apply a boot animation to any rom that you download and install? Can I make one myself? Is it a GIF format? Are boot animations specific to devices? Eg: Will a boot animation from a droid work on my Nexus s?

I do however love the boot animation that is installed with NEXUS SENSE ROM. i mean WOW... have you guys seen that? I wish there were others like that around, but my search efforts on XDA as well as google were fruitless.. everything is crap!

Sorry if it's a repeat request (or i over looked it), I am asking if someone could make me a "customized" theme.

[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
Alright... A real accountant (why, it's me, of course) is gonna chip into this conversation.

In terms of professionalism, both jobs are considered as professionals in various countries and there will be requirements before they even consider you to be a professional (passing exams, # years of experience, etc.)

Both jobs will offer pretty steady pay, and they are both fine in terms of prospect.

The real question will be which one you are most interested in. From your last post, it seems that you like accounting more.

Well, accounting is more than just taking care of the books, nowadays. You are expected to have a better grasp of the entire company's operations, as well as being very firmly rooted in the GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Practises) knowledge of your country, or the country you plan to work in. An accountant (at that level) is also a manager, so all the necessary managerial skills will be needed.

So you see, the accountant is more than just a "beancounter". And yes, I resent being called a beancounter, because I have never counted a bean (while working).

As for civil engineers, I have two uncles who are civil engineers. One is in Malaysia, now working on a project-by-project basis, another is back in the US (Houston) looking for work. Both of them tend to travel a lot, but that's the limit of knowledge I have about their work. But they are kinda satisfied with their lives, and I suppose that their job isn't killing them.

Of course, accountants, more often than not, are hidden in the office (Malaysian accountants are pretty famous for being vampires because we seldom see the light of day) while civil engineers do get out and about.

That's pretty much all I'd say at this point, but if you have questions...

I just bought a Rogers arc and everything is great so far, except the wifi. For whatever reason when i try to connect to my home network, although it recognizes it and connects i get a "limited connectivity" which effectively does not allow me to use wifi at all. ive tryed rebooting the phone and reseting my router (which is a D-link DI-524.) any help would be appreciated.:)

you could go in the router settings and register the phones mac address to a ip of your choice. it should do the trick i think...

Has anyone ever thought of trying to run cyanogenmod on this device?? I have a lot of experience using custom rom's and flashing custom recoveries, just not so much making them.. But searching for anything on this device just comes up blank.

I have the Koodo model of the LG P500h, downgraded to the Telus 2.2 Froyo firmware, I have titanium backup and the rom manager installed both with full licenses.

I guess what I'm asking is for someone to port Clockworkmod to this device?? It would be much appreciated.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jimbo831:
I'm sorry if this is addressed somewhere, but I couldn't find anything solid while searching. I use my G2x every day with SportyPal Pro for my bike rides. I am currently running stock 2.2.2 with root and am having some difficulty attaining an initial GPS lock. It seems like when I go to launch any GPS app, it will not get a lock. To get it to work, I have to open GPS Test, select tools, and clear out the A-GPS data. After doing this, it looks almost instantly and will keep a lock forever.

The next day, however, I must do the same thing, and this happens nearly 100% of the time. The funny thing to me is when I open GPS Test, it will show a strong signal from a lot of satellites, around 7-9, but it doesn't use these signals to find the lock. Again, after resetting the A-GPS data, it works every time almost instantly.

I have just dealt with this but it is getting more frustrating. Today, GPS Test wouldn't load, just kept showing a blank screen and force closing eventually, even after fix permissions, clear data, uninstall and reinstall. Only after another reboot, would GPS Test even load. I can't explain because I don't know well how the inner software works, but the GPS seems to have a hard time relocating itself when using the cached A-GPS data. Any fixes that anyone knows of, or things I could try?

Thanks a lot in advance.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jimbo831:
Well, I guess if you are seeing the same problem, it could be a software failure. Why can't Android phone makers release a phone with GPS that works out of box? Do they not test these things? Hopefully the Gingerbread update addresses this issue.

I dont think its the hardware because it did work the last time i tried about 2 weeks ago. Since then I tried to use a location spoofing app (that has since been uninstalled and mock locations disabled).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Rusty!:
On the O2X the mongs at LG left out the gps.conf file, adding it manually sped up lock time no end. I guess it's possible they did the same on the G2X?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokyomonster:
I actually exchanged a G2x yesterday that was having problems with GPS

Regardless of whether it was on stock or not, rooted or otherwise, my phone would not find any more than 4 satellites, and would never lock. Factory resets did nothing. My fiancee's phone, however, would find 8 or more within 10 seconds when both phones were set right next to each other. Both phones had a 4/05 manufacture date.

Because of that, I was pretty sure my issue was hardware, as I was never able to get the GPS to work properly. The phone they gave me yesterday (4/12 manufacture date) does seem to work ok, though the screen bleeding a bit worse (but that doesn't bother me *that* much)
