I got final 2 with vibrant hd theme on top and i want to flash final 3 .Can i just flash the nonwipe or do i got to flash the full with a complete wipe and then put the theme back on top?

Sent from my SGH-T989 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
You can just flash the non-wipe update but you will get a half and half theme (Some Bionix theme and some Vibrant HD). The theme will not work with Final 3.

I unfortunately just found that out the hard way, but no worries, flashing back to it now!

Can someone tell me if the Mediahub apk is needed for anything important cuz I'm thinking about uninstalling it...i don't ever use it. Just don't want to uninstall it and break the functionality to anything else.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
It's not needed, deleting it will not break anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] sirganon:
Thank you

Please remove this from the build and recompile and release it again.

Please remove this from the build and recompile and release it again.

Please do this will all bloated apps and the 2nd time around, can you please make one that will work with the mac client Heimdall Suite 1.3.2 (Binaries) , Please
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
If I find some time, maybe. But not everyone may want it removed.

I can't reproduce the issue on my end. I haven't tried it on a mac but it works fine on both Windows (Odin) and Linux(Heimdall) for me

[Vibrant Android Development] mbison83:
I'm not familiar with Odin. Can you please walk me through it?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
0: Make sure your phone is will charged.

1: You need to have the Samsung Windows driver installed - LINK

2: You need Odin and pit file 512 - LINK

this package also includes the stock JFD image.

3: Download the Odin image you wish to flash.

4: Unzip the Odin3_v1.7-pit512-JFD.zip file packet into the folder of your choice. Then Put the Odin image you downloaded and wish to flash in the same folder... unzip the Odin image if need.

5: Put your phone in "Download Mode". Either by pressing "Download" from the power menu when you turn your phone off. Or with your phone off, hold both vol + and vol - in and then plug in the usb cord.

6: Double click the Odin file to open it (Odin3 v1.7.exe). When Odin opens make sure you see that is has connected with your phone... something should show in the "ID:COM" windows to the left... something like "0:[COM4]"... it will be different depending on your usb port.

7: Now click the "PIT" button and find the Pit 512 file "s1_odin_20100512.pit"

8: Now click the "PDA" button and find the Odin image you would like to flash. My image for Bionix - FishmanMod is "Bionix-FishmanMod_odin.tar.md5" and the stock JFD is "T959UVJFD.tar"

9: Make sure the "Re-Partition" button IS check... it sure be already.

10: Now click start.

DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR PHONE OR DISCONNECT IT OR SHUT YOUR PC OFF... OR ANYTHING BUT WAIT FOR IT TO FINISH AND RESET YOUR PHONE.

What is the combination of keys to hit to take a screenshot in this ROM?

I just accidentally did it and I'm not sure what I did.
[Vibrant Android Development] sirganon:
There isn't any way to consistently reproduce those screenshots. I'm sure everyone has had that happen at least once. You need a screenshot app if you want to take screenshots. I have one that's called "shoot me" but I don't think it's on the market anymore. There are others though.
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
It's a mystery to me.

Use this app.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
It's the Home + Back button at the same time, same as with most Samsung phones. The problem is that on the Vibrant, the touch buttons are not multi touch. The only time I have had it work or heard of it working for people is when the phone is lagging and the two buttons were press back to back... when the phone catches up... boom, screenshot.

ScreenCaptureService.apk is the app, and yes it can be removed without breaking anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesey10:
Thanks. I wanted to show off the 53 hours of life I got off a charge and your ROM. Granted, I wasn't using my phone most of the weekend, but no other ROMs come close on standby.
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
now why will this not work on a mac is the question.

How did it go?

Have you figured out how to use this client with your rom?

Maybe you can draft a step by step on how to flash this rom with heimdall.

It is a shame, I really liked this rom, If I cant flash it on a mac, then I will move onto another rom that I can flash on a mac.

Great for a PC!, now why will this not work on a mac is the question.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
I'm sorry you are having such an issue with this, but like I said, if I have some time I'll see if I can reproduce the issue on a mac.

I do have mac sever setup as a VM box client... But I don't use it for much another then some sever stuff. And have it set pretty limited.

I'm ready sorry you can't get this to work on your mac but I can't reproduce it on Windows (Odin) or Linux (Heimdall).

I will try to play with this a my mac VM client soon but I am sorry, this is not at the top of my priority list

Do you have any battery mods that will work with final v3? Like one without percentage, horizontal batt, etc? No biggie and I know its not a priority, just wondering.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
YES, It's kinda really good, but it needs some stuff here and there... maybe in a week or so I'll drop it.

EDIT: As for the Batt Mod, I'll see if I can find something. I'm looking at that on NextGenV2 also,maybe it need something different,... I'll see

[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
On which lockscreen? Some lockscreens are not compatible with the stock player.... like the Miui lockscreen doesn't work with the stock player but does with the Miui player.

See Whitehawkx post here - LINK
[Vibrant Android Development] Fatty1212:
Well, I got the Vibrant fone. And im liking the ROM very much. Thank u Fishman!
[Vibrant Android Development] MrEleventy:
Installed and loving it. bionix was pretty smooth for me in the first place and this is even better. Only thing I changed was flashed overstock kernel. Had better experience with it. great job fisherman
[Vibrant Android Development] Fatty1212:
Which overstock kernel is that? Also how id ur battery holding up?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Yes, I went back and forth with kernels on this rom but decided on Bali uv for good performance and great battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
The 4 tab lock screen
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Yeah, the stock player does not work on that one.
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
Maybe update the OP to incude a section : "Known Issues", Thanks for addressing this concern.
[Vibrant Android Development] MrEleventy:
I use Overstock 2.4.1 and juice defender OC'd to 1.2ghz. With moderate use, (check e-mail and respond to email, facebook, surf heavy on breaks ~45 mins) I can do 2 days before I plug it back in. Normally, I would go to bed with high 60s % charge. End of the 2nd day and I'm in the teens.
[Vibrant Android Development] Fatty1212:
Thanks for the info! :-) I guess I'll try this version and see how it goes.
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
The rom is no longer able to receive any of the Samsung Secrete cordes.

One more issue,

The rom is no longer able to receive any of the Samsung Secrete cordes.

These are numbers dialed into the phone to perform some undocumented function.

Now I can no longer dial any of the codes such as this one *2767*3855# which performs a hard reset and erases the contents of the phone which enables a fresh start.

I use to have this capability in the previous builds, now something is missing.

What is missing with this build fishman?
[Vibrant Android Development] idiosyncrisia:
Thanks for the reply, but this doesn't work. I have even tried rebooting.

EDIT- What schwick says actually works, I just read it wrong.
[Vibrant Android Development] schwick:
You're welcome. When I flash Bionix at first I can't adjust the time settings (timezone etc.) all I do is what I said earlier and it solved the problem.

Hi guys, thinking of flashing this ROM. Can anyone confirm that 911 works? Thank you.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikka06:
i'm not in USA to confirm but as long as i know 911 issue is only on miui,cm7 and ics...so 911 should work
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Like mikka06 said... All the Froyo 2.2 based rom are fine for 911. The 911 issue is only in CM7 and MiUI style roms.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Yes, that's an issue with all roms that have the "Hide AM/PM" options.

You need to uncheck then recheck it first before the "Hide" will work... and then you will also be able to adjust the time.
[Vibrant Android Development] supazonique:
ok, I flashed this then I flashed whitehawkx 9 lockscreen...

so I got the lockscreens and the hide am/pm and clock, me happy. now, is there a theme that works with all this?

God do I miss Sombionox and TW. This is the only ROM that's stable, hands down gives the best battery life I've seen on any rom, on any phone!!

Keep coming back for the battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] temporalsobriety:
is it worth it?

Yes, I did read the OP. That is why I was wondering how fishman0919 was able to get the Quadrant score of 3644. Quadrant may hold no weight, but having the same phone (Samsung Vibrant), with the same custom ROM (Bionix 1.3.1), it is still an acceptable point of comparison. That said, I want to find out if it is worth making the time to flash it over an existing Bionix 1.3.1 ROM. Would it significantly improve my phone?

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
LOL... that Quadrant score of 3644 was with MIUI-NB... if you click on the score in my sig, you can see the screenshot.

Yes, Quadrant holds no weight for comparing rom "A" to rom "B"... but using it as a tool for tweaking

A

rom to measure gains... it's OK

My Quadrant score with this Rom is somewhere between 2050 and 2150 most of the time (I did a few more thing to the ver I'm using right now)... with Bionix v1.3.1 stock I started with 1600'ish, adding Bali v1.8.8uv pushed it to 1800-1900.

It's not an OMG WOW diff... but I think it's a bit smooth
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
This is where Sombionix found the honey spot.

You want to see smooth, you should see this rom after applying some "System build.prop" tweaks. This is where Sombionix found the honey spot.

Just unzip the build.prop and place it into your "system/ directory" just make a back or or rename the original file incase you want to rever after words. This property build has most or all of the tweaks applied and then reboot twice.

you can view the build.prop file in a text editor and view the comments made line for line to explain the tweaks applied. such as

Tweaks to adjust the heapsize

Tweaks to make the video stream faster

Increase photo quality

Better camera and video results

Power save tweaks

Tweaks to adjust the buffers sizes

Save power when phone is sleep

Adjusted WIFI scans to conserve battery

Boot tweeks

Boots faster

Systems Tweaks

Tweaks to help scrolling responsiveness

Disable / Delay black screen issues after a call

Most of these tweaks found here Super Build.Prop Tweaks :-D |Updated 10/30/11|

These are the tweaks that I use and every time I flash Bionix 131 rom, I also replace this file with the supplied tweaks and add the Bali kernel. Would be nice to try one with Voodoo color someday.

Give it a try and if you are not happy its probably because you no longer have your vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
May I include this in my next release?
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
Of course, lets play it forward

Of course, lets play it forward :D
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
I was able to re-flash a Bionix 1.3.1 rom to get back some of the Samsung Secrete cod

Perhaps in your optimization of this rom, you took some of its functionality Fishman?

The Samsung Rom did provide some service and functions that are no longer available in this build that were present in the previous builds.

I was able to re-flash a Bionix 1.3.1 rom to get back some of the Samsung Secrete codes that provided services and functionality that were not viewable from the User Interface or by some stand alone application but were built into the Rom itself. (*2767*3855#)

I know that you are very busy with Work, Life & tweaking but it sure would be nice to have these services back into your work.

Best,
[Vibrant Android Development] nomadrider123:
I am not running the latest build but are you saying he took out Sgs tools? Thats where I run the secret codes
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
What I am implying & I could be way off, but when Fishman optimized this rom,

No I am not implying the application apk file. When Google released Froyal to Samsung, Samsung has modified the rom per their handset devices. (installed Touch Wiz, preparatory software, and added a layer of ROM management. ) Like for simple administration, they provide the underling code to have administration provisioned via the undocumented phone number codes, hence the secrete code.

What I am implying & I could be way off, but when Fishman optimized this rom, he removed some of the roms functionality in a effort of minimizing the file size or stream-line-ing the code when he added Gingerbread binaries or modified some of the existing code in the Samsung Build of Froyal.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
The "Secret Codes" are part of the Stock Samsung dialer "DialerTabActivity.apk". If you are running Dark Slate, it doesn't not have the Stock Samsung dialer... so no codes. If you are on Dark Slate and would like to use any of those codes, you can flash the "Dark Slate Revert to FishmanMod Final 3" or push the stock Samsung dialer "DialerTabActivity.apk" to /system/app/
[Vibrant Android Development] serendipityguy:
Good knowledge....On 1.3.1 and missed it.

Thanks Fishman,

Good knowledge....On 1.3.1 and missed it.

Out of curiosity FISH,

Why would you remove the dialer?, would it be easier to theme it?

Thanks for your great contributions!
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
I did theme it... it was the org Bionix dialer I theme. It just seem to fix better with Dark Slater then the Samsung dialer.
[Vibrant Android Development] sirganon:
This may seem like a weird question but is the option to hide the battery icon available in this rom? If it isn't does anyone know of an easy way to do this using an app or mod?

I do have the slate theme installed if that matters.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
No it doesn't and no I don't know of any app that can remove it. I've played with the idea of a toggle and also just completely removed the battery from the nav bar but never more then that.

Hi,

I am on ICS slim ROM and want to flash a stable ROM as I am giving this phone to my dad and everyone suggested me this rom.

Few questions

1) Can I flash directly on SLIM ROM....I am running Gingerbread bootladers.

2) Is there any mod which can activate FFC which I installed in this.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
No and ... sorry but no.

No need to Odin back to the Froyo bootloader and back to stock

Bionix supports FFC..according to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925548

Cannot I extract some files to make it work in this ?

[Vibrant Android Development] darkelf96:
I've been using your ROM since you first released it and have to say it's been great! I'm currently running v3, but have tried the v3 Odin and v4 releases. I gotta say the Odin image and v4 seem a lot faster/smoother than v3 (which was already fast/smooth) but I had to go back to v3 due to an issue.

What I run into is under Settings --> Call Settings --> All Calls --> Call status tones. If I check either or both of the Call connect tone and Call end tone boxes, when I make a call, the dialer crashes and the call disconnects as soon as the other party picks up. It also crashes when someone calls me and the call ends.

It's not a big issue (I'm not sure how many people even use this feature), but for me it's kinda important.

Again, awesome job on the ROM! I'll keep running v3 for now.
