Where do we get leaks from JVQ from if they've stopped working on the vibrant?
[Vibrant General] lotherius:
Vibrant 4G... Unfortunately, the 4G version is a different radio than the original Vibrant (to support the 4G) and therefore GPS hacks have to be used on those versions, leading to unreliable GPS and battery life issues.

Even the "already with gingerbread" Nexus S got an update today!!! :(:(:(

http: //bit.ly/mQy3G3
[Vibrant General] Danstek:
...and I still have a year and 4 months left of contract on my vibrant. I'll wait until about september and see if there may be GB. Personally I doubt it but nothing wrong with some wishful thinking. If not then I will just pay up front for the nexus 3/prime. Then there wont be any more worries about updates.
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
All I know is that the DroidX (aka: POS-X) got GB and it came out right around the same time as the vibrant. Wow, when T-mo gets gobbled up, our selection is going to suck. Old hardware on VZW, Iphone loving ATT, or Spotty Sprint.

Here we thought that the SGS4G would be the best thing to happen to us (ability to port over) but turns out, it was probably the worst thing because we have become neglected

I guess i'll consider it for my next purchase too....

Still, I won't loose all hope.
[Vibrant General] dardani89:
I think people are acting a little too rash. I wouldn't loose hope completely. Wait untill gingerbread is released for other US carriers before making a judgement. Regardless of the outcome I knew a long time ago that I would only buy the nexus line of phones from now on.
[Vibrant General] krackers:
ATT has already confirmed captivate is getting gingerbread
[Vibrant General] kiaksar2142:
Guys, are you 100% sure that the Samfirmware tweeting is true?

you know, I thinked myself about this! We didnt got anything official from Samsung or T-mobile itself.

so i think there is still chance that we can get GB for vibrant

and by the way, I found something here:

http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entr...ead-2-3-3-update-Release-Status-for-Countries

i dunno is this info is right or not but the US still pending.

what do you think about this?

are you sure ? i just read a tweet from Samsung Mobile US that they will release 2.3.3 in late Summer

https://twitter.com/#!/SamsungMobileCA

Great news for Galaxy S owners - Android 2.3.3 will be available for Vibrant, Captivate and Fascinate 3G+ later this summer! that's exactly what they say
[Vibrant General] duboi97:
CA= Canada...they have their own version of the vibrant... FYI
[Vibrant General] NinoAl:
I think we will still get an official gingerbread for our vibrant...its probably going to be later than the other sgs variants because samsung and tmo chose to upgrade the sgs 4g first...think about it...verizon, sprint, and at&t only needs to worry about one galaxy s device while tmo has to worry about two...it still sucks, but i'd rather think of it this way than nothin at all...

Besides, my phone is running simply honey 4.0 (jvq)(2.3.4) and is working flawlessly...way better than the stock eclair and froyo...gps maybe a lil buggy (like you have to reboot to turn the gps back on) but it has worked for me on all the times i have used it...i even got a quick lock while i was driving (moving)....so if we do not get an official gb rom...im not too bitter about it...and i am planning of getting the sgs2 when it comes here in the US

Sent from my Simply Honey 4.0 Samsung Vibrant
[Vibrant General] duboi97:
If you think about it like this...

T-mobile has:

Galaxy S 4g & Samsung Vibrant

Att has:

Samsung Infuse & Captivate

Verizon has:

Mesmerize, Fascinate, and Droid Charge (if you would consider the mesmerize one or the droid charge)

Sprint has:

Epic & Transform

All the carriers have multiple variants of the Galaxy S and only ATT has confirmed it for both devices http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/25/atandt-confirms-gingerbread-coming-to-entire-2011-android-lineup/

typical, its not enough we had to suffer with a broken gps but now we're gonna be abandoned completely .... ehh well at least we have the best dev community holding us afloat
[Vibrant General] hotadef:
Well ill buy the next samsung product cause in the end if it dont come its because of tmobile not samsung. Att&t is putting gingerbread on all their devices just about samsung htc motorola pantech what ever they have that came out recently is getting gb so that means its the carrier not the manufacturer
[Vibrant General] Mr. Galaxy:
Oh dang.
[Vibrant General] AustinKnight45:
So if we start up this #neveragain again what's the worst that could happen Sammy push the update through kies like they did with froyo? Someone will get pressed tmo/Sammy to release the update just like last campaign I do think we should kinda wait it out a little longer but dam.
[Vibrant General] SuperJMN:
I've just received this tweet from @SamsungCarla in my tweeter:

@SuperJMN We're still working with Google & our carrier partners to determine GB update for our Galaxy S devices. Stay tuned.

No leaks, but an official upgrade? What do you think?

[Vibrant General] Emama:
To determine GB update sounds they haven't done anything for me
[Vibrant General] ronin4740:
...I'd translate @SamsungCarla's comment to mean that they're still waiting for carriers to tell them that they want the GB update. If they don't get a "yes" back from T-Mobile for the Vibrant they won't build it...
[Vibrant General] anthonys2r:
sounds like BS and a copy and paste response to get you off their backs..
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
I dont exactly see whats there to build.

Google hands it out, Samsung puts their own touchwiz on it, and Tmo puts its ****bloat on it, and release...

Putting touchwiz on it can't be that difficult... seriously. We already have touchwiz for phones that aren't even samsung made for gods sake.

Yes they add the extra lockscreen music etc, but its essentially the same.

Why do big companies like taking a small anthill and making it into Mt. Everest?
[Vibrant General] jwleonhart:
Well XRider i'm not sure how old you are, but in the corporate world nothing makes sense. Thats why CEO's get paid 10 million dollars a year to do less work than someone flipping burgers at MCDonalds does.

Thats corporate, and thats the **** problem world we live in today. Which will only get worse, but thats off topic.

Honestly at this point who cares is there is an official GB release for our phones. All the Gingerbread ports and CM7, everything is fully functional Gingerbread. Nothing is broken, the phone doesn't act crazy or anything...

Why bother waiting for a manufacturer to release software that the loads oogles of **** you don't want to begin with, and can't even use the right file system for god sakes right off the bat.
[Vibrant General] turbosix:
have you compared simply honey and CM7? i'm on simply honey and strangely enough i get the BEST gps locks (4-6 meters vs 6-10 meters on 2.1/2.2 roms) i've ever had, but it usually takes quite a bit longer to get them.
[Vibrant General] lewishollow:
Whereas the tireless work our devs have done is incredibly awesome, you can't say it is "fully functional" until the GPS is as good as it is on Trigger or B-Winning, and the magnetometer works.
[Vibrant General] shrapnelx:
You know, KB5 just popped up in Kies without there ever being a leak. Just because there is not leak yet, doesn't mean an official update is not coming. Now if all the other carrier's Galaxy S devices get official Gingerbread releases, and a month or two later the Vibrant is still on Froyo, then I'll feel a little slighted....
[Vibrant General] mav361:
who needs official release try cm7 nightly 68 w/bali v1.1.1 "fully functional w/voodoo color pretty vibrant i must say
[Vibrant General] s1lenz:
is there an update on this? seems like a major story if it's true...
[Vibrant General] Gamones:
Im sorry, dumb question but does having official rom from Samsung make cm7 run faster?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
yes, it can also save us battery life.

We all know that Samsung Roms > CM7 or in that case most of the GB roms

-FOR BATTERY WISE-

So if we were to get a source drop or a leak from the official samsung... better battery life, and for CM7 they could make the GPS work without the extra tweaks etc that they've done.

Obviously not EVERYONE will have a 24 hour battery life. Not everyone's GPS will work, but it helps, helps very much.

and most importantly it calms us down.
[Vibrant General] Gamones:
Thanks xrider. Because it seems atm cm7 is running flawlessly. SO damn smooth. I feel it's much smoother than Bionic as well.
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Lots of apps depend on GPS. I may not use my phone as a GPS Unit (have a real one for that), but it's hard to get accurate check-ins and use Location-based services without a decent or even semi-decent GPS in your device.

Sorry I'm not a fan of searching for names of places to check in when other people only have to open the app and the place is on the first screen. That's a terrible user experience.

Even Web Sites and Web Apps can utilize location data... GPS is just too much to lose. I don't think a significant number of smartphone users can get by without it. That's why the bad GPS in these phones was such a big ****ing deal.
[Vibrant General] Jasonhunterx:
So stay on froyo GPS is great on that or get 4G Vibe
[Vibrant General] audifanatic518:
Why not implement the system Apple uses for firmware updates? I am by no stretch of the imagination a fan of Apple (I walk on the other side of the mall every time I have to pass the Apple store for Pete's sake!), but I have to admire the fact that they keep their products updated, even though they charge a small fee for it. How can Samsung compete with that at this rate?
[Vibrant General] Danstek:
Unfortunately in the US android updates are distributed through the carriers and not the OEM. Samsung isn't allowed to push out updates without carrier approval. Also, Samsung does have a similar update method like Apple; Samsung uses their Kies software just like Apple uses iTunes. The delay that it takes for a new android version to be pushed out is due to the time it takes for OEMs to port over their custom UIs for each Android build. It's time consuming because everything has to be tested to ensure full compatibility. It's simply not a matter of copy and paste even if it may seem that way.

hi there ,)

i just flashed my wildfire with openfire 2.3, worked like a charm, set cpu to 180mhz, still working more fluently compared to the stock rom.

but one thing i didn't get managed so far:

i know most ppl want a sms to pop up, and so does open fire. but how to deactivate it?

it's not in the settings of sms. i also deleted the sms.apk, ok, no popup but also no more sms ,p (seems chompsms, which i use, is just a frontend), so i had to restore the original again.

any solution on my issue?

thx in advance
[Wildfire General] Balino:
try using handcent sms it work great, even without pop-up..

or atleast give a try to go sms, and deactivate pop-ups into settings!
[Wildfire General] muab:
thanks for your quick response...

as i am at work and can't conrifm myself right now (can't get onlin with my phone here):

are they both "real" sms apps or also just frondends?

(it seems, that i HAVE to kill the sms.apk, otherwise the popup shows up (i can deactivate sound, vibration and message, but not the popup ;/)
[Wildfire General] Balino:
handcent sms is a proper sms app, instead go sms is just a frondends
[Wildfire General] muab:
ah, many thx, i'll give it a try when i'm at home ,)
[Wildfire General] muab:
you git it right,

hancent does the job, even with the look i loved with chompsms.

drawback: its way slower/not as responsive, but i can handle this better than anying popups.

again, thank you =)

Today for the second time I was unable to save, edit or even delete an Excel file that I had been using. I keep getting a message that the file is read-only.

get the sbf and flash with RSDLite, YOU CANNOT GO BACK TO 1.83, IT WILL BRICK UR DEVICE.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
I had a similar issue yesterday after trying a mod. I pulled the battery, put it back in, and booted up. The error had stopped, (although the issue remained). I then put the original zip file on my phone, booted into CWM and flashed the original.

In essence, pulling the battery may allow you to do what p0xer said because you will be able to get any files you need onto your phone for flashing. (May actually fix the problem also).

If you can reboot to a useable state, maybe try clearing Dalvik, cache, and factory reset to get rid of the problem.

How do you clear superuser app data? Do you mean within the superuser app itself in settings that says clear logs?
[Atrix 4G General] gnueliafnak:
I just rooted my Atrix with the preinstall method also. I updated to GB OTA from stock Froyo 2.2.2.
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
Settings >> Applications >> Manage Applications >> scroll to Superuser >> Clear App Data button

Without doing this I was getting tons of FCs from the Superuser app and had to root again. I read about this fix on the EVO 4G forum.

Also, the Superuser apk included in the preinstall image is not current - after you install go to the Market and you'll find there's a new version. Once it installs run SU and it'll say there's an updated su binary available. Click ok, yes, whatever, give the app root permission, and you'll be updated and rooted.

Do you lose data/settings if you use the briefmobile method? (e.g. the old gingerbreak method wipes your internal storage)

Also just to be totally clear : does the briefmobile method works fine with 100% stock unrooted no BL-unlock OTA 2.3? (i.e. did not use any sbf, cwm , nothing pure stock with OTA gingerbread). For example I read the preinstall thread and it seems to be guys talking about flashing sbfs. Then there are a million warnings not to flash sbfs if you've gone OTA gingerbread. So confused

There's just so much info floating around and its quite daunting TBH even for someone like me who's custom ROMmed Samsungs and HTCs before.
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
No you don't lose any files from the method I've posted about. Also, Gingerbreak didn't have that effect for everyone - I didn't lose anything when I did that on 4183.
