I don't know who reads this far into a thread, but there's reference here to a "Gingerbread GPS on-off bug" and how a cook can fix it:

Is this rom for Vibrant 4g or the first generation Vibrant? I keep getting like weird screens and force closes :\
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
This is for first Gen. What do you mean weird screens and what is FC'ing
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
For the original vibrant like eb said. Did you flash the gingerbread bootloader? I suggest you do and see if that makes a difference.
[Vibrant Android Development] snowball34:
Sorry for this question but what is the gingerbread bootloader?

---------- Post added at 02:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 AM ----------

The weird screens I was talking about is like multiple colors of a lot of lines when I boot the screen and in camera mode. Everything seems to be forcing closing such as google services

---------- Post added at 02:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

-Edit-

Thanks for the help, I don't have any of the rainbow lines anymore :D.

---------- Post added at 02:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 AM ----------

I got rid of the rainbow lines now, but everything still keeps on force closing like android market, logsprovider, software update, android.processmedia, calendar storage and much more. Is there any fix for this?
[Vibrant Android Development] Leafy_duk:
You need to use odin to flash to a bone stock 2.2. And with the boot loaders you have to use the flash file in the boot loaders thread.
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
If you're getting that many fc's you may need to boot recovery and wipe data factory reset and reflash. Now that you have bootloaders it should be pretty painless.
[Vibrant Android Development] snowball34:
I stocked flashed from 2.1 to 2.3.4, am I doing something wrong there? Is that why theres force closes?
[Vibrant Android Development] Leafy_duk:
Maybe it is 2.1. Whichever one JFD is.
[Vibrant Android Development] snowball34:
Thanks for the help, factory resetted and it was all good.

---------- Post added at 03:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:12 AM ----------

This maybe a dumb question, but where is the battery indicator? It only shows the internet sign, signal, and time
[Vibrant Android Development] Leafy_duk:
You have to add it in the settings or something irrc.
[Vibrant Android Development] techpreneur:
I'm not sure what went wrong. I flashed the GB bootloader, everything loaded right. (No rainbows). I get a bunch of FC and I cannot get into recovery or download to format? What are my options?

EDIT: On GB bootloader its up & power for download move and down & power for recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] Janis:
I wonder if the lag people are experiencing is coming from the sync process. My gets crazy slow while syncing - I control it with Synker.

I am having GPS issues. I thought if I left it on it would be fine. I flashed the GB GPS fix, and everything seemed to be great. After reboot, though, and not consistently, I'll get a black screen lockup right when it seems to get a fix. (I over/underclock with Tasker & SetCPU.) After a fresh flash of the fix, a dalvik & cache-clearing, a power-off with the GPS off, then another reboot with it on, it seems to be OK. Then I reboot at some point, and the phone locks up on me again. Granted, it's the best-working GPS I've found after Froyo.

Anyone else locking up because of GPS lock?
[Vibrant Android Development] NCn1:
Best ROM I've used, now I have one issue. I cannot install Maps from market. It says unsupported device? Wtf?
[Vibrant Android Development] Specialist88:
Hey Dan_Brutal.....when you going to update this ROM? I'm a little concern with the phone reboot below 30% when on a phone call or listening to music, if it somehows happen?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
I'm not going to be. I don't have a vibrant anymore.
[Vibrant Android Development] Janis:
Good to know. Would you please put that in the OP?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
I made a thread about two weeks ago saying my goodbyes and stated that my roms are now unsupported.
[Vibrant Android Development] doin-it:
Any working themes for this rom? Thnx
[Vibrant Android Development] lapdog101:
About four or five listed in vibrant themes or edtdev.com
[Vibrant Android Development] Kwaii49:
A fix for that would be to odin back to JFD. If you still get the gt-i9000 screen flash the froyo boatloader . Then flash this rom again and make sure to fix permissions. Ive flashed this rom maybe 6/7 times in the past couple days because I was too lazy to odin back to jfd, and all I had were problems. And that was one of them.
[Vibrant Android Development] rubberwheels:
nevermind, just read that this won't be updated.
[Vibrant Android Development] doin-it:
Anyone know what kernels are compatible w/ this rom besides bullet???? Thnx
[Vibrant Android Development] raykovitz:
I think there is another but nothing compares to Bullet. It's the best kernel for Malice.. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] doin-it:
Yea keep having random reboots & had the same problem w/ bullet when i was using it on a Froyo rom in the past. So was looking to try something different.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dattack:
Have you tried the Talon kernel?
[Vibrant Android Development] doin-it:
Thought it was only for simply honey. But looks like it working on other gb Roms. Bout to give it a rip
[Vibrant Android Development] elry567:
Talon kernel working pretty good so far

Edit: nevermind spoke too soon wifi is broken
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy_kat_matt:
would really love if swype worked. cant generate a new license either. =[

other than that im liking this rom thus far.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dattack:
I used titanium backup from another ROM to save the Swype and restore later .
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy_kat_matt:
you know what, i didnt think about that, i still have my titanium backups on my sd
[Vibrant Android Development] doin-it:
My wifi is working on Talon kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] Burner2K0:
The camera app for me is getting an FC every time I want to take a picture or if I try and focus by taping the screen. Has this happen to anyone else? :-/
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy_kat_matt:
Swype is the only program that wont restore on titanium. It just sits there trying to restore, but it wont.

i really want swype to work, it makes life easier lol!
[Vibrant Android Development] Leafy_duk:
Just get a swype beta password and install it from the swype installer. Anyone can get it.
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy_kat_matt:
tried it, i keep getting "swype wasnt installed" ive tried pulling it from another rom, and i just get force closes. i dont get why its being so stubborn for me
[Vibrant Android Development] Leafy_duk:
If swype was already installed on he rom you cannot install swype beta. Start with a fresh flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] crazy_kat_matt:
i got it, i just deleted swype from the system and reinstalled it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Tbry:
Stuck in a boot loop. The voice says something about the partition, but that is all I can understand. The screen flashes with static colors and repeats.

Not enough space on partition. Do I have to Odin back to factory?

Edit: I got it to work after resetting the phone. Still had a problem with the colored static on boot up. I've seen it a few times randomly as well
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
You need to wait while that voice thing happens.

Its actually converting your partitions.

If you reset your phone in middle, you are prone to problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
You need to flash gingerbread bootloaders to get rid of the rainbows.
[Vibrant Android Development] scooter421:
Looking for wifi calling

I've searched this thread quite a bit but it's a little unclear to me, is there or is there not a wifi calling app available for Malice v5.0. I too have a need for it as i travel in some areas without tmobile signal available.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
No wifi calling in this build. Sorry man.
[Vibrant Android Development] scooter421:
Thanks for the reply. Two more questions-

First it's about GPS, I've read alot of different fixes, in your opinion, what's the best fix.

Second, use CPU management or not? I get mixed results usually for the worse a opposed to not using. Or am I doing something wrong? I've tried all but set CPU.
[Vibrant Android Development] raykovitz:
Set CPU works great....this ROM flies overclocked to 1.42....
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
If I could get my vibrant fixed, I would update the rom. I miss all you guys.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viviox:
Hi guys, can someone tell me how I can flash this ROM coming from Bionix v 1.31 with Voodoo Lagfix.

I'm not familiar with ODIN, can I flash Malice ROM on top of BIONIX V or is it a must do ODIN thing before flashing?

Thanks. I've been away from flashing ROM since BIONIX developers left in March :o So clueless to what must be done.
[Vibrant Android Development] raykovitz:
You need to odin... You have to get gingerbread bootloaders before flashing malice and the only way to install them is with odin. Follow this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1117990 and then follow the instructions in this OP. It is well worth it... Malice is awesome !!!:D
[Vibrant Android Development] atatistcheff:
I'm currently running ICS Passion v13 but the FFC performance is supposedly better on Malice. Do I need to Odin back to stock to install this ROM or are the boot loaders for ICS the same as Gingerbread?
[Vibrant Android Development] raykovitz:
You can try.. Gingerbread bootloaders are recomended for ICS but required for Malice.. It prevents the rainbow effect when trying to get into recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:

[Vibrant Android Development] Rayn1328:
That does not suck!!!! This should give me the 2 months I need before the HTC one or gs3 hits. Thanks brutal bosox! Can you simply go back to a gb rom from ics or Odin is a must. Kinda bored at work
[Vibrant Android Development] lapdog101:
I still keep Malice 5 on my sd and i use it at least once a month. Without a doubt my fav Gb rom. Nice to see u back
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
I would Odin back to jfd to be safe. I don't know how ics works on the vibrant, mine has been broken for months.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Nice... We all could use a little more Malice

anyone have screen shots tempted to try but would like to see wat im getting in to

Look here. Its themed the same way. It will give you some idea.
[Vibrant Android Development] gibletzor:
Been running this for about a month now, just got into GB roms after trying ICS and MIUI and not being happy with them. Any suggestions for increasing game performance? I've got a few games that I used to play just fine on BI-Winning, that just lag a lot on this rom. Everything else is amazing though. Great battery life, super smooth UI, fast as hell with 1.42 GHz OC.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
This thread is closed. Development of Malice will continue here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/21759-ro...t-development/page__gopid__585364#entry585364
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
Thanks man.
[Vibrant Android Development] dale5671:
Yeah DA, it wasn't anywhere in the or anywhere in the discussions of this rom. But I've seen it in other threads about other GB roms.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
Seen what?
[Vibrant Android Development] wbexpress:
Wowie...

I can't believe my sig. actually shows the words "Vibrant" and "Gingerbread" together. I've tried at least 6 of them and every one had major issues of some sort. This ROM actually works 100%!!! Thanks Dan, you hit a home run on this one. The last frontier is/was (of course) GPS, and I am getting as good as 28' and an immediate lock, which is way better than I ever imagined. FWIW, I have for some reason always stuck with the Brut Maps app since I found it, and (at least for me) GPS works perfectly on it, whereas trying to use the native Maps app does in fact FC. So, if anyone would like to try it, here's the APK. Please let me know if it works for you...
[Vibrant Android Development] bstromberg:
Best GB rom out. The theme is absolutely amazing save for a few ticks. Can't wait for the little things to get hammered out. Amazing work.
[Vibrant Android Development] scsi_2k:
Just flashed this. I've been wondering when devs say "AND LET IT SIT for 10 minutes and then reboot," do they mean to stay at the first part of the user config/tutorial or go all the way to the home screen and then wait 10 minutes?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
Flash the rom and leave it alone for 10 minutes. Don't touch it. After 10 minutes reboot and go through the setup wizard.
[Vibrant Android Development] scsi_2k:
Thanks for the clarification. Awesome ROM! I used Malice v3 back in the day. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Big Dog KMc:
Hmmmm. thats not what Ive been doing.

What if the sim card has a password on it?

type it in or "Just Leave it"?
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
this rom is great thanks for the hard work to all who worked on this :D i left the house with 30% after flashing roms all day till i saw this one since i was tired of my poor battery life with cm7 :mad: i still have 15% after like 7 hours :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
If you reboot without entering a password, can you still enter it? I always flash and put it down and walk away from the phone. But whatever works for you. Its all good as long as the rom works.
[Vibrant Android Development] lapdog101:
Going on 14 hours and loving the malice. One random dialer fc earlier but no reboots. Thanks Dan. Also a shout to wbexpress for the brut map.apk...worked perfectly on my drive home. Best gb rom for me....and i have flashed most. Nice work on the theme Annex
[Vibrant Android Development] Gunsmith_Cats:
Awesome Rom;

Just wanted to say thank you Dan for not selling your vibrant and stopping your work in the kitchen, Malice V4 is absolutely amazing I flashed it this morning and like a fool soft bricked it(forgot to disable voodoo said there wasn't enough space to partition, Odin'd, flashed bootloaders, wiped data and cache, flashed v4 wiped cache and dalvik fixed permissions, this time it worked marvelously i've been running it since 3 pm I charged almost to 100% it is still with 73%, unreal battery life, I downloaded dolphin hd and you were right about the browser, have not tried GPS yet(don't really use it.) but the theming in this rom is amazing, really like the icons in the pull down menu and the checks overlaying the text is a small price to pay for a phenomenal rom, Thank you Dan for making a phenomenal Gingerbread build that will stay on my phone for a long time, cannot wait for the updates and just want to say, Awesome! ( first rom I might keep on my vibrant for a month..LOL.)
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
the battery life is just amazing :) im using boat browser its pretty good lol, i had one question about swype when do u think we will have the new swype on this rom it works alot better
[Vibrant Android Development] Angelito1244:
Read through the whole thread but I don't think this was directly addressed, If already on a gingerbread rom(revolution) I don't have to Odin right? But still Factory Reset?
[Vibrant Android Development] Jasonhunterx:
Yea just wipe an u good that is what I did :)
[Vibrant Android Development] CyberMix_JM:
Abt to test this rom, by the ways, is it the stock camera? or TW?
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
as long as ur not on a cm7/miui rom u dont gotta odin :D
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
Well, did nandroid and took the plunge ;-)

So far so good. I had couple hikups with TW sometimes it would just keep on restarting like in endless loop but eventual started working again.

I have also added debug.sf.hw=1 to build.prop to enable hardware acceleration for UI. I like it so far. Map works just fine. Get luck inside my house down to 20m. Also the GPS is not perfect at this moment it is good enough.

One issue that really is bugging me is Google Talk keeps crashing when I try to start video or just audio conversation. On JVP, google talk voice worked however video was still FC on me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Nabeel10:
Can't wait to see themes for this, you guys are gonna make themes for this, right?
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
I dont know if this has been reported or not, but I found an issue where the check box is on top of the text. Try going into setcpu, also try choosing launchers and you will notice it. Also if its not too much to ask can you please provide us with miui music apk since the samsung music player wont work with the android lockscreen.
[Vibrant Android Development] sumchamp:
Seems theme is a bit messed up. Overlapping selections with options.
[Vibrant Android Development] VibrantWind:
Dev is already aware of the issue. He said he'll fix them on next update.

Check 2nd post of this thread for the Miui Music flashable zip.

[Vibrant Android Development] CyberMix_JM:
I love this rom, very fast, responsive and I love how the camera looks, cant wait for the update.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
So here's the list for the coming update:

Fix the .9.PNG screw up

Add 9 lockscreens

New kernel oc/1.420 with smartass and interactive scaling

See if I can figure out the issue with hanging up a call.
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
Nav App keeps force closing. Anyone successfully used the Navigation with this ROM??
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
GPS and maps do not get along. That's why the navigation app fcs on you. It's stated in the op.
[Vibrant Android Development] rakeshchn:
Does the rom come with samsung widgets? If not anyone know where to get TW4 compatible widgets?
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
It locks quickly and I can get directions laid out on the map. Very nice, quick lock. I'll test it driving around. GB ROMS are getting close
[Vibrant Android Development] RobZarzecki:
Thanks, re full wipe
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
sounds great do u thing we could update to the latest swype too? :D
[Vibrant Android Development] kevho00:
Does JVQ have that bug where if your battery is under 20% and your in the middle of a call it turns off?
[Vibrant Android Development] rickyy00:
Yeah it does actually

@Dan_Brutal

Hey bud I got a question for you. It says and I quote

I'm on Redux with Froyo BL, so couldnt I just enter DL mode, flash the GB BL, immediately enter recovery via buttons, and flash this? Or will the CM7 filing system cause me problems and that's why I need to Odin to stock?

Or could I Odin to stock, then immediately Odin to GB BL, then put the update.zip on the sdcard and use the buttons to enter recovery? Just trying to figure out the shortest route without Stock>root>RomManager>CWM steps... lol thanks...
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
you have to odin to JFD if u flash from cm7 u wont be able to boot the rom up the quickest way is odin to stock flash the gb bootloaders then reinstall packages then flash :)
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
That's right, I forgot even flashing to JFD will not touch the sdcard, so the update.zip will still be there.

Flash JFD = Fixes the filing system and partitions back to RFS

Flash GB Bootloader = No Rainbows

Recovery & Reinstall Packages Twice? = Instant CWM

Flash Malice v4 and enjoy JVQ, lol....

Ill try this soon I think... Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
If coming from cm7 or miui, Odin to stock, let it boot up. Then flash the bootloader.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
u dont need it to fully boot up just take out the battery and get into download mode, this way u dont gotta deal with stock :D
[Vibrant Android Development] kevho00:
I cant get BLN to work! :(
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
did u install BLN control or restore with tb?
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
When call cime in and phone is lucked, you have to unluck first to see who is calling. Alsi when you hang up the phone hangs.
[Vibrant Android Development] kevho00:
Both!
[Vibrant Android Development] t00c00l4m3:
Great Rom, but need to be more stable. Force closed on my phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
Be more specific. What does?
[Vibrant Android Development] badboy68:
I dont understand y others are having trouble. But I hope they will be able to fix. As for mines followed op works like charm
[Vibrant Android Development] CyberMix_JM:
The only prob I have with the phone is sometimes the signal drops and it say its in airplane mode, when someone hangs up first I get the fc, the contacts tab in the dialer, check boxes work well in most not all the program.
[Vibrant Android Development] kevho00:
Is nobody going to.help me with my bln problem?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
Bln works man. I don't know what to tell you. Reflash? Works fine for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
The hang up issue is a bummer. I'm avidly trying to find a fix for this
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
Works fine here to. Use TB to wipe data and uninstall. Then re-download from the Market and try again but reboot after installing and go into cwm, wipe cache, and wipe also Dalvik, set permissions and reboot back into the OS. If that dont work re-download Malice and try again..
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
im also having that phone fc problem but its ok this rom is still great :D
[Vibrant Android Development] dale5671:
OMFG!!!

Took a chance, flashed this, got burned. Nothing but bootloops and rainbows. All i get and I even let the sonofabitch sit for more than 10 minutes. Now the wife is pissed because I will more than likely be spending the next couple of hours trying to get a working phone again!!
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
did u even bother reading the op? u have to odin to stock JFD if ur on cm7 or miui then flash gb bootloaders then flash this rom
[Vibrant Android Development] Jasonhunterx:
Does phone fc happen all the time or sometime happen to me once
[Vibrant Android Development] dale5671:
WTF did you think I did!! I went to stock with Odin from CM7, did NOT flash the bootloaders because didn't want to **** something up(yeah right it did anyways), and seen numerous times on here and from Dan himself that they are not needed. So YES, I read the damn OP. So don't start in with that stupid "did you even bother to read the op" ****.

EDIT: Now with an Odin to stock, three times by the way, I get nothing but error messages when trying to hit "reinstall packages". Which is the only way I know of how to get the familiar recovery screen back so I can start the journey to a working phone again. Without that can't really do much with it.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
wow you dont have to be so disrespectful
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
delete your current update zip if u still have it and search the forums for a different one
