[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
Not yet, but the money is still up for grabs. I'm experimenting with the volume turn down thing with mixed results. Not sure if it is helping, or if it is just not echoing for people sometimes. It will not get the best of me though...

Rest assured, whether I have to pay for it or not, when I find the solution it will be made available here free for everyone
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
Wow...that kwag kid sure woke up from the wrong side of the bed. Got an issue with the ROM? Two simple choices: move along or solve it yourself. If you had the time to complain, you had the time to solve your situation. Kids these days...smh. To OP, props to you. You're one of the very few Vibrant devs here who is actually interested in communicating, (unlike most) and for that, kudos to you.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
@ the Mods, thank you for your support.

If lotherius was correct, and I only say if because I dont know for myself, the anti echo code for normal calling is in the modem. Might be hard to get at that code, Ive never even tried to decompile the modem. Not saying its impossible, these are more randm thoughts on how to approach this issue. You do like a challenge dont you?

My own responses arent always as level headed as they should be, and I can let my buttons get pushed sometimes. I try to help where I can, and if I have the knowledge I am willing to share it, if asked nicely. ;)

My thanks to the supportive peeps out there, good lookin out.

Does the 2.1 themes work for 2.1.1?
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Yep, they work without a problem. That should be noted in the second post as well by the themes. I will get around to updating them here soon, but theres nothing they are really missing. The themes I have up also replace the entire framework folder, and should really work on any KB5 based rom out there.

I was having the exact same issue on KB5 modem. Switched back to KA6 and the problem seems to have been fixed. Only been a day so far. Will try for longer and confirm back.

[Vibrant Android Development] savkhetan:
Br1ck'd glad you said your piece. Honestly sometimes ignore is the best option. I for one have no issues with any modem in CA. This ROM is king.

Based on the logic above it means that...

In 100 out of 100 situations this is the best ROM out there and everyone should immediately install this ROM. Right now! If it is the best for me means it is the best for everyone. Understood!

I'd love to be wrong, and am only repeating something I read somewhere else ;)

It has been my experience though that this problem happens even on stock ROMs, and from what I know of how the echo cancellation works on these phones (used to work at T-Mobile but not in programming just in PDA tech support), I have no reason to doubt the information I'd read about the problem.

However, as I said, I'd love to be wrong and see a fix for the echo.
[Vibrant Android Development] duboi97:
Brick'd has 666 thanks!!!! :O

Btw nice ROM I adore it. This plus DMZ Kernel is the best!
[Vibrant Android Development] Mirmensky:
Just wanted to say I flashed this yesterday, as I was growing frustrated with every GB rom I've tried, and I gotta say I have no idea why I left Froyo!

This rom is so damn smooth and snappy, apps open up with zero lag and my browser is lightning fast, even on standard web sites without a mobile version.

I'm wondering why I was so eager to go with GB in the first place, it just isn't built for our phones yet, I couldn't imagine any GB rom being faster and smoother than this. OH, and I'm nearing 24 hours since the initial flash and still sitting at [checks phone] 30% battery!

Thanks Brick'd!
[Vibrant Android Development] krazie1:
hey Brick'd can you tell the name of the clock widget that is all black with green arms?

Thank you very much! (:
[Vibrant Android Development] ionstream:
All I've ever wanted from a ROM is for it to be completely stable, do exactly what I tell it to do and only what I tell it to do. This appears to be that ROM. Flashed over Deodexed KB5, this ROM is incredibly fast, has no random lags or hard reboots. The only force close I received was when accessing the Market for the fourth time or so, but that's not a big deal and could have been any number of reasons. Calls start and end without any hesitation, the lock screen always shows up within a second of pressing the power button, and the GPS locks quickly. The ROM absolutely refuses to use my battery and may actually be drawing power from the sun. I think I found my perfect ROM! Thank you good sir.
[Vibrant Android Development] ragedz:
The best rom I've ever flashed hands down. Battery is at eh 45 after phone has been on THREE DAYS. If you turn off Data when not using it with this rom, your phone runs forever. No lag. Way better than Bionix imo.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jdom58:
Now that's not really fair to say, Bionix has been around way longer and Sombi was one of the pioneers that created it, as a matter of fact it's still being used and used as a benchmark for other roms.

That's kinda like saying SRV was much better than JMH, you may not have had one without the other ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
2nd post updated

-Linked the transparent status bar mod created by Mirmensky in the Contributions section

I wanted to thank you guys for all your kind words, and damn glad to hear that users experience is still on point with this build. :D

Jdom does have a very valid point here too. Bionix was the first rom I ever flashed successfully on my Vibrant, well before I decided to jump into this game myself. I have never been in direct competition with any other devs, accept for me and Dan_Brutal giving each other **** from time to time, but that all in good fun. (Go Yankees!)

It is entirely plausible that without me, mystified by the early works of Bionix, Eugene373, Master, Heathen, s0niqu3 and many others, I would have never stepped into this arena. I say it in my OP, and give credit where its due.

Bottom line though, thanks to e1 out there who enjoys running this build, I do appreciate your positive feedback.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jdom58:
Hey man, thank you for donating your time and effort into these roms!! Zen is exceptional in every way and is really a pleasure to use.

BTW Transparent Status Bar looks great..... Now back to Guitar Hurricane ;)

I did have a really weird mishaps with the first flash...every time I rebooted my phone, it would delete all the apps that titanium just installed xD haha Reflashed and its working great :] Only 1 soft reboot, but nothing big
[Vibrant Android Development] Mirmensky:
I might post the personal theme i'm making on my phone, it has an invisible status bar and is orange, gray, and green themed. I'm not a real developer though, just messing around with uot kitchen. Currently having trouble getting mods to the notification footer and power bar to stick.
[Vibrant Android Development] reyese24:
Why is that at times my phone will not wake until I pull the battery and then takes a while to boot
[Vibrant Android Development] jimmytinsnips:
So. Confused.

Okay, I'll admit right now that it was a mistake to bother flashing to another ROM, let alone a Gingerbread ROM, when I was beyond happy with ZenDroid. But I hope someone here will forgive my flash-happy foolishness and help me out.

I flashed the "No Frills 2.3.5 AOSP" ROM (honestly, worst ROM I've ever used; a nightmare to install and a bigger nightmare to interact with), and was instantly reminded of everything I love about ZenDroid, namely, that it works and works well and that's it--it's beautifully utilitarian. I reverted to stock for safety and flashed the latest ZenDroid. Everything went swimmingly until a few minutes ago, when I started getting System Process force-closes every few minutes. Google Voice triggered one every time it asked for access to my account, so I uninstalled it. I was fine for a few more minutes, but I'm getting the same message at seemingly random times about the System Process dying, after which the phone has a seizure and flops around a bit before expiring.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Snide remarks?
[Vibrant Android Development] lazyb421:
You should try the F.T.D.N.B. method in the second post of the GingerZen thread. It cleans out ghosts of other roms really well. I do this between every flash now rather than odining back to jfd.

And thank you for letting me know about the NoFrills AOSP rom. I was thinking about trying it, but I think I'm gonna stick with this now.
[Vibrant Android Development] jimmytinsnips:
It's entirely possible that I am simply not qualified to install a Gingerbread ROM on my Vibrant, so I can't say my problem is the fault of the NoFrills AOSP dev.
[Vibrant Android Development] christpuncher:
so i'm not sure if this issue is rom specific or not, but either way. i went to update google+ and upon updating it told me that i have insufficient storage space. which is bs. i checked, and i still have over 1gb left of application storage. i tried to install other apps and they worked, so for some reason my app storage space got cut off and i have no idea why. anyone?
[Vibrant Android Development] Mirmensky:
Anytime I have issues like that, I go to applications, find the market app, clear data and reboot.

Give it a try, may just work.
[Vibrant Android Development] christpuncher:
that's a no go. and now i have a voicemail icon that won't go away. wow i'm really starting to hate android.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
What kernel are you running? If you haven't changed it, your phone may not like the UV in the latest Bali Kernel. I would try other kernel options.

As lazyb421 said, the FTDNB steps in the second post of my GingerZen theme should be a big help with your issues.

You might also want to try clearing the cache and Dalvik through Recovery. If running Voodoo, disable it and then try again if clearing the cache doesn't fix it.
[Vibrant Android Development] christpuncher:
Neither worked :-( I even tried to update g+ when voodoo was disabled and it said the same thing.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Did this ever clear up for you? There was an update to the market pushed to me yesterday, its entirely possible that if your market was trying to update, it will act very buggy until its done. I couldnt install anything from the market last night, but this morning its fine, and I can tell the market updated because the notification icons are black again, not gingerbread style.

Thank god for ninja morph, I'm way too retentive to not have those icons match.

[Vibrant Android Development] Mdtolic:
Oh man, that made me laugh! I said the exact same thing not too long ago. I feel 'ya dude! Did you do Eugene's FTDNB to restore? It saved me from pulling out so many hairs after I tried a GB rom and then went back to ZD. If you haven't done it yet, do it.

Interesting glimpse into the mind of Br1ck'd. Your attention to detail makes you a great chef though. Do all the items in your kitchen cabinet have to be facing out too? ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] lazyb421:
Haha damn you're as bad as me. I switched my notifications icons first thing this morning. :D

Flashing from simply honey 3.8.

I am currently using this Gingerbread ROM, and have come to the conclusion that I would like to have somthing that works better. espiecially gps.

I did not ever get the Gingerbread bootloaders installed so I cant see anything in recovery mode.

do i need to flash back to stock to get this Rom on my phone, or is there some way to put Zendroid on with ODIN?

Thanks for the help.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I would recommend flashing stock via Odin when coming back from a GB rom. In my GingerZen thread, second post, follow the FTDNB steps to fully blow away anything on your phone and start from a fresh stock rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] doug7:
I did read about the gingerzen thread in anouther post, and I have tried to find it unsuccesfully.

I did a search for gingerzen and nothing came up.

If you could provide a link it would be greatly appreciated.

[Vibrant Android Development] Mirmensky:
Hey Br1ck'd, quick question.

I am trying to theme this rom via UOT Kitchen, but the one roadblock I keep hitting is the notifications. It seems I can change the status bar, and the notifications themselves, but not the powerbar at the top, the footer with the yin yang, and the background. Oh, and I can change the text in the status bar, but the clock text doesn't change.

Anyway you know to get around that?
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
The images your referring to in the drop down are in the twframework-res.apk. You'll have to change those the old fashioned way, I don't think the kitchen modifies that apk, but only uses it for reference for the framework-res, to my knowledge.

When you say clock text, do you mean actual font, or color? The font for it is controlled by the systems font, the color is a string in the services.jar, that I can never remember off the top of my head. If I get the chance I'll try to find my notes on that tomorrow.

Sent from my ZenDroid, meditating on the XDA App
[Vibrant Android Development] Mirmensky:
Okay, got more to change, I just had to go the extra mile and upload the framework and twframework apks.

Now the only thing that isn't changing are the power bar icons. You say I have to change those the old fashioned way? Oh boy, I may actually have to learn to theme properly lol.

And I was talking about the clock color, only thing that doesn't go with the colors for the rest of the notifications.

I'll upload some pics later to show my progress.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mirmensky:
So here's what I got, as you can see I've got everything but the icons changed. Also threw in a couple general pics of how the menus are shaping up.
[Vibrant Android Development] jforme:
awesome

that looks awesome dude.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
That does look good, real good. Couple of tips for you.

To get at those images in the twframework, download 7zip, and use it to extract the contents of the apk file. Doing that will let you see all the files inside the apk, and from there you can find the quick panel icons. You can then grab whatever source icons you want, and again back to 7zip, once you have the replacement images of your liking, use 7zip to open the archive, not extract it, and drag your replacement images into the corresponding folders. You can then push or flash the new apk, and reboot.

For the clock, this depends on a couple of things but it might be super easy for you. If you are using the aosp theme as your base, guessing at that based on your current clock color, and if you are wanting it to be white, then replace your services.jar in the framework folder with either the one from ZenDroid or the one in the GB theme, and your clock will be white. I haven't found my notes on the proper string in services to change yet. If you're going for a different color, then of course that won't work.

Lmk if this stuff doesn't work for you.

Here is a flashable zip file that adds Hebro and arabic support specifically for this rom. Flash it and let me know, it seems to work fine on my vibrant. :) I only used the instructions and the scripts from http://blog.devasque.com/?page_id=11

Br1cK'd can you add it to the OP? Should be useful to others.

Voicemail Problem

This is on Zendroid 2.1.1..whenever I press voicemail thru the phonedialer or thru the notifications bar.. it says no voicemail number stored on Sim Card. Had to manually dial it. How to add number to sim card???
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
The modified camera has support to turn off the gps location and a few other features, but FC's with Video at the highest resolution

And yes, either will work with 2.1.1

I will get that added to the @nd post when I get the chance, ty for your contribution.

EDIT - Added to the 2nd Post. This is for the stock framework only, correct?

Thats odd, can't say I experience that. I can dial voicemail by hitting the notification and by long pressing the 1 button on the keypad of the dialer. You may want to go into Settings->Call Settings->Voicemail and see if its configured for My Carrier under Voicemail Service, and if the number there is reflected accurately.

It is based on zendroid 2.1.1's original framework.

Awesome ROM. I have probably tried 20+ ROMs over the last few months and this one ranks up there with the best of them. I am trying to find a good, stable ROM for the phone that I can install and leave it alone because I am planning on giving this phone to my wife in a few days when the SGS2 comes out. Soooo....

My GPS still sux. I have been using this ROM for several days now, and I try the GPS every day. By now, it should have settled, but alas, each time I try to use it, I either have to wait five minutes for a lock, and once I get a lock, it won't stay locked for more than a couple of minutes. From the comments here, it looks like it should be working better then that. I have not flashed any other kernels, modems, or gps fixes. Where would you suggest I start? Do I even have any hope?
[Vibrant Android Development] engljeff:
TV Out

Love the ROM. Really quality work. I tried to do TV Out for the first time yesterday and could not get it to work. Knowing it could be anything from the connection to the cable to the device I thought I would check first to see if anyone has been able to get TV Out to work on this ROM or if there are any known problems with this feature.

Admittedly, I have never tried TV Out on any ROM, so it could just be a false hope :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Don't know what to tell ya man, I get locks within 30 seconds usually. They aren't the most accurate, but it has never been on my phone. Our GPS sucks, its a known fact. You might want to hunt for jellette's gps fix, and see if that helps your situation, but thats about all I can offer.

Never tried it myself, can anyone else verify?
[Vibrant Android Development] asdf916:
it might just be a placebo effect, but i got it to work by turning off my wifi and running GPS test. after that my GPS works fine with wifi on or off.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mdtolic:
Yeah, look for .Sgps fix. I think there's an .Sgps2 as well.

I believe ZenDroid comes with AngelDealth's "NorthAmerica" GPS files. You can search for his thread and get your more specific US region too. (that's just not so great when you travel out of your region.)

But first, try GPS Restore from the Market. Then get a fix while connected to WiFi. Once locked, use GPS Test or GPS Status to re-download GPS data. that's easy and often helps freshen up my locks.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Actually, GingerZen came with those, but I didn't see the need myself to change those files in ZenDroid, so applying those may have an affect on the overall performance in ZD. Let me see if I can find the links for our friend here.

[Vibrant Android Development] MrGibbage:
OK, I flashed the s.gps.2.zip, and it does seem to make it better. Sometimes it still takes a couple of minutes to get a lock, but it seems to be more stable.

You know, the more I play with this phone and it's crappy gps, the more I think the problem isn't really the gps. It's the google maps applications. MyTracks tracked me all the way home yesterday and even had me on the right side of the road most of the time (suburban city driving. No tall buildings. Open sky and good weather). But I could shut down MyTracks and open g maps and sure enough it would take a minute or two before it was even close (off by a couple of blocks) and then it would have me wandering around and otherwise just plain inaccurate. Very strange.

Anyway, thanks for the help guys. I think I will stick with this ROM before I give the phone to my wife next week. I am so hoping that the SGS2 has the gps fixed. And yes I have been reading the treads in the SGS2 forums about people having problems. *sigh*
