[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pirecrompir:
i had the exact same problem with oxygen and 4oct franco. i traced the problem back to the kernel, uninstalled franco and no more reboots. now i'm using stock oxygen kernel. i was using franco with smartass2 governor 400 min 1200 max, now i'm using ondemand governor (i think) and same freqs. didn't notice any difference in battery life or performance to be honest, so i'm fine.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Timbermax:
I had same rebooting issue with Franco´s kernel and Oxygen.

But if I had wlan on, no reboots. Didn't even have to be connected.

I only keeped wlan on and reboots were gone.

Bit strange... but now using Oxygen without Franco´s kernel.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vethan:
That's interesting. I'm trying to use CM7 and Franco's kernel now, and just had a reboot, but I'll switch wifi on an see how it goes

Just downloaded apk and updated mine.
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The big thing is the auto-update capability on this release. Now why hasn't Google pushed updates to the market in a while?
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
Market updates are really random post 2.3.x.

On one rom (this was before this current one) I got 3.0.27

on a different rom i got 3.1.3

The two roms used were 350 and 351 I believe, completely unmodified and the same device, since I was using pkg updates they also fac resetting during the process so they were both clean slates.

They were about 20 minutes apart so there's no explaining why this happened.

Depending on how it's pushed you could either already have it or it may take months before it's pushed to your device, regardless google allows even 2.2.x versions to still access the market so you'll rarely ever be stuck in a situtation where your version is too old to update itself to access the market. (even though market updates is done completely different from how apps are updated through the market)
[Streak 5 General] jitin02:
No matter what its still slow. Still sucks
[Streak 5 General] chrisrotolo:
only thing I dont like is needing background data to access market..

I always have i turned off to conserve battery.

i can still use data(browser,other apps,etc.) without background data..

there should be a way to just open the market as long as you have normal packet data enabled..

Im curently using the ICS market on Streak7
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I agree it's slower than 2.x versions of the Market. As to it sucking, that is your opinion, and one I don't agree with. I think the changes made with this version of the market are worthwhile ones.
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
+1
[Streak 5 General] jitin02:
Yea i agree with changes made to looked the market . Only thing I Am saying is sometimes when you combines market twice or thrice to push an app and it still doesn't that's the time when you want to freeze the market updater And uninstall new update and use old version
[Streak 5 General] marvin02:
Most of the time going into manage applications and clearing the market cache fixes download issues. Next step is to clear the data (also in manage applications). You will have to accept the terms of service again. 90% of the time one of those two things will fix market issues. More market troubleshooting tips here.

If you want the new market and it has not downloaded to your phone you can try uninstalling updates and sometimes when the update reinstall you get the latest version.

I just tried to download flash 11, and it says it isn't signed correctly. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks.....
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
It seems that your previous version is a modified one, try uninstalling old version and installing the new one from market
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LarryACoates:
not necessarily a modified prior version

I also cannot install Flash. 11.0 on my Android 4.0 device. My device is a an Asus tablet that is brand new and does not have any version of Flash installed and yet Flash will not install
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwong96:
If you want to install Flash even though JB does not support it, here it is.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meteorrock:
Guys, even if you can still get flash to work on JB, I highly recommend NOT using flash. Flash was abandoned by the android developers because it is a security risk. Without Adobe sending patch fixes for that outdated flash player to combat those exploits, your nook color or any other tablet is easily exploited by hackers for malicious intent. Those with the knowledge and knowhow can hack into your tablet in seconds via the internet.

Your taking a huge risk using that outdated flash player. Most public wi-fi hotspots do not even have proper router firewalls. I would suggest letting flash go and embrace HTML 5. You can opt into HTML 5 on youtube for example.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwong96:
I personally like/use Dolphin web browser with HTML5 (in beta). Who uses Flash anymore? Amazon Prime? Not YouTube nor Flixster nor Vevo. Only see Flash used in adverts, but I use Dolphin HTML5 so I don't notice.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Siamoen:
Just to suggest possible fix that worked for me and I had a hard time to find anything clearly connected with this issue.

Applies to:

32GB micro SD cards, possibly other rather huge capacities.

- LG GT540 (Optimus), seen reported similar problems on various devices but with unclear solution

Primary symptoms:

(Observed on Android 2.1 Eclair)

- SD Card preparation sometimes taking notably long time.

- SD Card is unexpectedly removed (couple times a day)

- SD Card is corrupted (solved by manual phone reboot)

- System randomly restarts (once or twice a day)

(Observed on Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread)

- System restarts during every SD Card preparation process,

after restart SD Card is working (ie. accessible by explorer) but no media files are accessible through standard applications (ie. gallery, music, player, etc.)

Suggested solution:

Format your SD Card with selected allocation unit size equal 8192 bytes (8KB)!

Drawbacks:

As far as I know using that small allocation unit may cause speed performance to suffer.

Full story:

My problems started right away I bought my 32GB micro SD to my new phone GT540. While I was using the SD only as a data storage it worked quite good. From time to time it needs to remount the SD or better reboot completely. After I tried hack App2SD, it was clear that it had been completely unstable. Shortly after I installed all application I wanted, system rebooted and every single user application was gone. So I moved to Link2SD which is more user-friendly way to have applications on SD on Eclair. It worked similar to App2SD but when system rebooted then just another reboot made apps work again. But by the time the whole problem only getting worse with restarts more than couple times a day, mostly when you needed the phone the most.

I believed that the issues were related mainly to non-standard application moving to SD so I decided to move to Gingerbread but there the issue went so bad. No media was cataloged so entire SD data was practically useless. Moreover system restarts on every SD card preparation. So I played around hard and after some time found a solution that's working for me rock solid. (3 days and counting...)

Desperate, I was trying formating any where possible. The really frustrating thing really is that the phone system itself formats the card wrong way! So it was hard to believe that there might be an issue. I tried only formating with 8kb allocation unit, not any other. It's perfectly solved my problems. I think that the original cluster size was 16kb. I've seen on forum suggestions to use 32kb unit as it should have the best performance over the size but I don't know yet if it's also working without issues. I may try it if any one post their experience I'll update this post to collect as much useful information about this as possible.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinewalker:
me too, will try this out

Got the same symptoms on a SGA (5830) running PAC ROM 20.1.0. A brand new SanDisk microSD 32GB (have verified the card is okay, using h2testw.exe). Will give this a go and update with outcome in a few days. Thankyou :)

[Epic 4G General] joshag:
I've been running D700EH17 for a while now and I'm happy with it, but I get random reboots a couple times a day. Figure it's time to go ahead and put a stable, custom rom on this phone since it looks like Sprint is never going to officially finish GB for it.

Any ROMs running 2.3.5 or 2.3.6? I thought I read that other carriers have their phones at least beta testing 2.3.6 but I could be wrong.

So with that said.. What ROMs out there are stable, get good speeds (over-clocking is my friend), decent battery life, GPS works, Camera works, etc, etc.. I don't like all the frills so bloated roms don't excited me and I either end up deleting or shutting off most of that stuff anyway. Small, fast, fully functional, simple.

Thanks :)
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Look in development for any ROMs running with the released kernel source on. There is one full ROM...it has Heimdall in the title. You could also put CM7 on. But check out the OPs in development.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
On cm7 and miui , almost everything works minus some videos and mms on miui. Acs ics is a good rom. Randomking makes some good gb roms. There's some era ones. There's a ton. Just look for eh17 in the title of the thread. There are screenshots of most of the roms if u care much about the ui
[Epic 4G General] joshag:
I just threw this update on - [ROM][Odin]|[Heimdall]|[CWM] Stock EH17 + stability fixes - but it didn't do a wipe/load just just updated on top of what I was already running. Might as well give this a run for a bit - claims that they fixed some random reboots, etc. I'll give the EH17 search a run and see if anything jumps out at me. I liked the ACS roms on my Moment and wouldn't mind checking those out.

As always, thanks for the replies. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greg di:
Just installed 2.2 properly (ie wipes etc) and the fonts on the whole phone are different from what I'm used to seeing on Starburst and other ROMs. No issues really but my gmail app is screwy.

My message list displays funny when new emails come in that are bold. It seems like my whole message list goes bold (and somewhat blurry) so even read emails go bold.

I suspect some font is missing or corrupt but I have no clue how to fix.

Any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greg di:
Here's a screenshot to show you the issue:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2959665/shot_000002.png

The "Test" email at the top should be bold type. All other messages should NOT be bold. It's almost like Gmail is using the wrong fonts.

I tried setting all fonts to DroidSans in the system and GoLauncher with no luck.

The screenshot doesn't show it, but the resolution looks goofy too almost like there's a little blur around the letters on the screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
rather than create a thread this should be asked in the viper rom thread. viper rom is a custom rom with some things changed, read the OP and you will find a zip to flash back to the stock look.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greg di:
I would have if I could have, but I didn't have 10 posts so I couldn't post in there.

What ZIP are you talking about? I scoured the thread for a long time. Threads with 1,000 posts are kind of hard to skim through. LOL

Nevermind...I found the zip for the stock fonts.

At least I have 10 posts now!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cporta:
Hi, I'm stumped. I've moved over to Starburst 1.9 and it has the live wallpaper Microbes removed. I tried to install it from the removed zip provided on the thread but I cannot install it. I tried flashing the zip in cwm and didn't work. I extracted the zip and and put the folders on my sd card and then tried installing it through my files and root explorer and it would not install. I made sure I could install from unknown sources and i tried it with usb debugging on an off.

I'm not sure what else to try. Does anyone have any suggestions?

So i filed a claim through asurion yesterday to replace my stolen phone and they told me that they no longer support the vibrant model and that they were going to upgrade me to a new model at the same deductible. it looks like there are no more vibrants through insurance. i will definitely miss my vibrant =(
[Vibrant General] Shortbus-Driver:
Not good!!! Looks like ill be lookin on craigs list
[Vibrant General] teletranone:
Can you let us know which phone they send? Thank you.

[Vibrant General] jamesd86:
wonder about through tmobile? i'm still within one year...might get a 4g for the hell of it.
[Vibrant General] lawalty:
Interesting thread. I purchased my Vibrant the 1st week when it released, and I bought the insurance. The T-Mobile rep told me that "when" they stopped supporting the Vibrant, ill get an updraged phone, if I pay the $100 bucks for the deductible. YES, they used that as a sales pitch to get me to buy the insurance.

Now, I use a G2, but my wife has my Vibrant. It will be interesting to know what they send you.
[Vibrant General] pault949:

[Vibrant General] Mdtolic:
I got a new Vibrant through T-Mo just a few weeks ago. (GPS on it is great, btw.)

I think it's crazy that a year old device is already "unsupported." WTH?
[Vibrant General] core123:
yeah shows that tmobile really only cares about profits. this makes me think that the vibrant is not going to get any more updates. very sad. makes me really hesitate about buying phones from tmobile if they are not too worried about support
[Vibrant General] Blown 89:
Yeah, the fact that Tmobile no longer supports a year old phone is the reason why I'm seriously considering buying the Galaxy Nexus out of contract even though I am not pleased with the features they released. I would much rather wait for the new Galaxy and a higher res screen but I don't want to take the risk of having support for that dropped too.

I did a warranty claim b/c my phone was not charging, i got a vibrant S and not a Vibrant 4gS....
[Vibrant General] core123:
Read my first post in detail brah. Mine was through insurance. Not warranty
[Vibrant General] core123:
I'm actually kind of bummed about the galaxy s 4g. There's no internal memory card, no CyanogenMod, and there are a lot more roms and modifications on the for the vibrant. The front facing camera is a neat addition but i hardly ever use it. I dont really see a difference as far as the 4g modem. It's pretty much the same for day to day usage for me.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
I got a Sensation 4G from T-Mobile for my Vibrant as a warranty exchange (I'm just as shocked and surprised as some of you are). I still want another Vibrant though.. they go for about 100-150 round here but they are getting rare.
[Vibrant General] core123:
I guess it was getting time to upgrade. I will miss it though. Best phone i've had to date and Great development community.

[Vibrant General] Emama:

[Vibrant General] brisseau:
No longer able to get root

I got a replacement Vibrant in the mail today (my old one was officially bricked).

So I unboxed the new one, put in my SIM and SD card and now the "new" vibrant won't recognize the SD card (or any of the music, photo's, etc on it).

I can't even get the update.zip file to install so I can't even get root on the phone to flash ROM's.

Any ideas? I'm running Win7 64-bit but the drivers aren't loading. I've uninstalled and rebooted my PC, reinstalled the drivers to no avail.

If anyone is available to chat directly, let me know and I'll send my email address to get me through this nightmare...

-Steve

PS: It's 8:45 in St. Louis, MO so if you're local, holler at me.

Nevermind. I don't have any idea what happened but now it's rooted and visible under Win7.
[Vibrant General] kboater:
cant help with your question, but i have one for you:

you said you just got your replacement, was it a warranty replacement from tmobile or insurance? just wondering if tmobile still has replacement vibrants
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
It was offered to me, warranty exchanges do not extend your contract.

Cost is $5 or $20 if you don't have the extended warranty coverage. I've had the Sensation 4G before as an upgrade to resign for another 2 years on all of my lines. Something about it, I don't like it over my GS2.
[Vibrant General] Decepticaons:
How did you manage to brick you phone? The Vibrant Galaxy S is un-brickable!
[Vibrant General] shoerhino:
I called into Insurance this weekend and they offered me a Vibrant 4g. I would rather have my vibrant, even though the charger ports seems to be getting finicky.
[Vibrant General] Rayn1328:
I'm having same problem with charging port....think an insurance claim might be in order......hope for same phone.
[Vibrant General] shoerhino:
If you can, let me know what they offer you. The charger port seems loose and when I have it mount o my motorcycle, large bumps cause the power to go out. I'm not sure about getting a 4g - I've heard that its not a good phone.
[Vibrant General] Rayn1328:
I spoke with asurion a little bit ago and they told me they still had vibrants. For 130 bucks not sure if I'll bother...I'm almost to an upgrade guess it would just be to sell for the new gs2 phone.
[Vibrant General] bush2088:
Just hope my vibrant holds out til the SGS3 drops in June or July.
[Vibrant General] WhiteBoyAwesome:
my charging port is screwy too, debugging only works at times and charges at times. Sadly, the water damage mark is red (even tho there is NO damage) and i have no insurance. was too young and poor when i first got vibrant :p so i doubt theres any way to get a replacement at all :mad:
[Vibrant General] core123:
crappy luck =/ are you planning on upgrading soon?
[Vibrant General] WhiteBoyAwesome:
i cant till next october :/ which sucks. phone wont last that long. hopefully i find someone here with a phone to sell reasonably priced
[Vibrant General] sjetexas:
With insurance, what's the downside (other than the deductible) to getting a replacement phone?

How is the SGS 4g inferior to the Vibrant? Does it have the same GPS issues? Wouldn't 4g make it worthwhile if you're in a supported area?

My charger port is flaky but it works...kind of want to swap it in just so I don't feel like I've thrown money away on insurance each month. Do they ask for the old phone back or do they care what you do with it? Do they always replace (vs asking you to send in for repair)?
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
It doesn't have nearly as much storage/less rom support. On the plus side it officially has GB now..
[Vibrant General] Rayn1328:
they didnt ask for mine back.......i'll keep one and sell the other.
[Vibrant General] outlaw22:
they tried to send me a side kick 4g.........i said hell no

[Vibrant General] kboater:
spoke to tmo, they said since i have had to do a few warrenty exchanges on the vibrant, they can either send me another vibrant or a sidekick 4g....

I said no.....
[Vibrant General] monnaliza:
sending a replacement vibrant...

Or at least that's what the Asurian guy just told me. Won't get it until Monday, but will let you guys know what I end up with.

I told him I was really worried about getting a different phone based upon what I've read on the internet and he said I was definitely getting a Vibrant. He said it really just depends on what they have in stock at the time.

I guess we'll see.....

They've probably collected enough and repaired exchange Vibrant's and now have enough to send out and exchange for.
[Vibrant General] JettyLife:
Stock GB is not worth it. I upgraded to a G2X with ffc and GB and I ended up selling it.

I bought a vibrant on eBay for $150 and that included extra batteries, extended batteries, silicon covers, and screen protectors...

As far as I'm concerned I'll always have a vibrant even when they're $50 on eBay lol.

I love my Vibrant. I haven't seen a phone yet that I like more. Until I do, I will rock the Vibrant!
[Vibrant General] Rahhstah:
my charge port had issues as well, took the phone apart and the microUSB port had very poor solder connection - with several broken/loose. Some flux, solder, and a iron to reflow onto the joints and it's stable and works fine again. I'm no soldering pro, but some patience and it was an easy fix.

I was given a galaxy s 4g... Looks like vibrant but a real POS. No internal mem. Comes with 8gig external card and 4g is a joke on the gs. The radio stinks, I placed the gs4g next to my sgs2, and had no sig at all "network unavailable" and sgs2 was rocking 4g full bars. Would take Vibrant 3g anyday over no sig at all.
