This is a great ROM and my daily driver, but something I frequently used is connecting my phone to my Laptop via Bluetooth to transfer files, but now my laptop says that the Bluetooth device does not support that (only other types of Bluetooth communications).

Maybe this is something that could be added in future releases if it's an easy fix.
[Vibrant Android Development] RoxAbout:
Try this out

I use "wifi file explorer pro" from dooblou [its in the market]

Works like a charm. Turn on the wifi, start the app, open your browser on the pc [you can book mark it] type in the ip it gives you and BINGO!

Fast file transfers in both directions no cables and its faster than bluetooth!

Give it a shot.

Good Luck

:)

Thanks a lot ma man .... it worked n nw viber runnin smooth....thanks again :)

I was just searching and found GooglePlay.apk v3.5.19 claimed to be the latest one

I have some questions on it

1. Can me update/ install on Slim 3.5 or higher

2. Is it safe to install/update as I don't wanna mess up my apps
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
3.7 Released- Read Changelog carefully and my recommended installation for 3.7
[Vibrant Android Development] tripleintegral:
Am scared to just wipe cache/dalvik and flash. In the middle of exams so can't lose data and start from JFD. Will probably wait for some comments :)
[Vibrant Android Development] hkfan:
working great...just flashed without wipe..Go ahead :D...and why are you scared...make nandroid backup
[Vibrant Android Development] Demetris:
wiping cache/dalvik wont cause any side effects on any part of the phone partition.

No way to loose any data.

Just will take a little longer to load first time.
[Vibrant Android Development] tripleintegral:
Thanks guys. Will make nandroid and flash now :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Shrivel:
When downloading within the "update me" app, I've gotten MD5 error 3 times. The essentials work fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
update your update me app first via market to 1.2.0. then try.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
I want to give this ROM a try, coming from Passion. I see the instructions state to flash base + essentials. What exactly are these files?
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Where can I get the stock ICS launcher? I dont like the launcher this ROM comes with due to no folders and widgets in dock.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
OTA
[Vibrant Android Development] tripleintegral:
Base is the part of the ROM that is common for all the phones that the ROM works on(S2, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S variants, etc.) and Essentials is what you need specifically for your device, ie. Vibrant.

Hope this helps.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Cool, I just found that option in the settings.

Another question, I see the default DPI is pretty high. What is the standard default for stock Vibrant?
[Vibrant Android Development] unknownyello:
if i'm not mistaken, 240 is stock and 182 is default for Slim's.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Thanks.

Im a bit confused on the where you change the Density in General UI settings.

The steps are nice, laid out nicely, but why do you have to change the density twice? Step 1, change density and Step 5, change density again.
[Vibrant Android Development] taurus193:
just updated the rom,getting better and better.

Contacts opening very slowly

Did the update to v3.7...

seems ok so far...

but opening contacts seems to be lagging a whole lot...

yes i wiped dalvik and wiped cache..

??:confused:??

opening a lil bit faster... still not as fast as before/previous versions...
[Vibrant Android Development] hkfan:
kravind,

can you please support pdroid developers in making patch for slimrom....many users are interested .... They just need advice about how you assembled the ROM.. Nothing else

Mine failed until I updated the updateme app in the market. Then it passed.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Anyone mess with the DPI settings?
[Vibrant Android Development] ktorres1120:
You just change it to 240 if you want the stock vibrant look. Then reboot and that's it.

just do it. it works.

I have just install and i liked very much, but....

I can't see some apps in the market "play store" like facebook, voxer, and others

i've installed marked enabler, but nothing change

and...

it doesnt have google maps and google calender, even after i flash lastest ics gapps

so what is going on?
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
Don't flash gapps on top of mine or remove vending/phonesky.apk, market updater. Apk and googleservicesframework.apk from gappps before you flash it
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Is GPS a known issue with this ROM? I know GPS has always been flaky on the Vibrant but with this ROM I get zero GPS. When using apps that require location, it thinks im in London (I live in the US). Even using network based location is messed up.
[Vibrant Android Development] Demetris:
Camera's video mode is crashing when selecting any effects/Silly faces.
[Vibrant Android Development] davidgs:
For me the GPS works great with this ROM, but what I do is reboot the phone with GPS on, then as soon as the phone is back on and before going to sleep, open a GPS app like gpstest or maps, once you get a lock you can turn off/on the GPS, go into deep sleep... And GPS will work anytime you want after (at least for me)..
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
GPS navigation is always hit or miss. I can attest to locational GPS being flawless though.

maybe a reflash or double check all your settings
[Vibrant Android Development] BungleMX:
I have reflashed slim,

before it, I tray market and could download and install those apps (youtube, voxer facebook and maps)

then I flash gapps deleting phonesky.apk, marketupdater.Apk and googleservicesframework.apk

but now I don't have play store :D

so how can i have them all for once???

Thanks

EDIT: Nevermind, I thing I got it :D you're right no reason for been installing gapps from other sources

Voice Dialer VolumeFix

Could you update the voice dialer addon to include the volume fix documented here?

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/16707-mod-voicedialerapk-bluetooth-volume-issue-for-android-403/

This has been a pet-peeve of mine for a long time. Volume for the voice dialer is set far too low. This fix ties it to the Bluetooth volume.

Thanks!

[Vibrant Android Development] neur0t0xin64:
I must say this is the best ROM I have ever had on my vibrant. I have been flashing ROMS for nearly 2 years and have tried almost all of the ones out there. I'm finally getting very good performance out of my vibrant.

Thanks for this!
[Vibrant Android Development] ssjwiggy:
Huge issue

I've had nothing but trouble trying to get this ROM to work. I follow the instructions verbatim and simply cannot get this to work properly. My homescreen looks like this:

The signal bar on top says I have a signal but I cannot access the internet or anything else. I've gone into the Mobile Network settings and chosen the network my phone is always connected to, but that doesn't help the problem. I tried this a month ago with version 3.5 and am still having this problem with 3.7. I'm using a Samsung Vibrant that has been using ICS roms. I've used CM9 in the past but an coming from AOKP. I've tried flashing CM9 then ICS Slim but that hasn't made a difference.

In other words, I've got no data.
[Vibrant Android Development] widto08:
I had this very same problem. If you can get into settings>apps>all, scroll down to zeam launcher>clear cache>clear data, then hit home key, everything should work from there, home screen wise. For your data, flash ICS modem in recovery (KB5) works well for me

If this helps... click the thanks button----> ;-)
[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
are you saying that you can get satellites locked every time even after long deep sleeps? stock kernel?

if so then you must have the only vibrant that does! I've even done the GPS hardware fix (locking within 10ft) but frequently lose GPS after deep sleep requiring a reboot to get GPS again.
[Vibrant Android Development] Panamon:
He does not have the only one that does. My GPS has no problem functioning after deep sleep on either of my 2 Vibrants. They always seem to work great with the stock kernels of the many roms I've flashed, as well as with with Mr. Psycho's fine works.

From my point of view many with chronic DS issues likely got stuck with bad GPS hardware compliments of Samsung.

Software can only do so much.

More than should have to in the vibrant community just have to come to grips with the reality that not all Vibrants are created equal.

You may have a dud dude.
[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
It's only been since upgrading to ICS or CM9 that I've had gps issues.

Froyo, lock fast and accurate every time.

Additionally, it's pretty obvious that the overwhelming majority of vibrant users upgrading to ICS are having the same troubles. Is it that the majority of vibrants are "duds", or is it more likely that it's software driven in Android 4.0? (that's a rhetorical question)
[Vibrant Android Development] vnamee:
I've never gotten Slim + subzero kernel GPS to work out of the box. But I flash the GPS fix and it works every single time, since slim/subzero's early incarnation. I don't know that the fix has any ill effects either. Other's have reported GPS works out of the gate, but the fix has not failed me so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
gotta refer to the post i was replying to. meant to say locational gps in terms of "network based location" used for weather & such. although my gps has definitely been more on the "working" side of the spectrum. enough to tolerate until i get a new phone later this year :)
[Vibrant Android Development] anilo:
I've installed the S Voice app from Galaxy SIII and it's working flawlessly.

[Vibrant Android Development] muchelaguito:
replacing baseband

I have noticed that this comes with KA7 modem, in my area, this one doesn't provide the best service, as I tend to lose coverage in areas where, kb5 for example, would work much better. Is it possible to replace the baseband in ICS? Can I just flash one of the standard kb5 modems found around this forum or do I need a special zip for ICS? I understand it may make my battery last less, but in my case, I rather to have better coverage over battery, as I have my phone charging all the time anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
not true at all, this doesn't come with any modem. what you have stays
[Vibrant Android Development] muchelaguito:
oh, that's cool then. Does it mean I can just flash KB5? or do I need to use Odin?
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
Any Cyanogenmod modem zip will work

Bluetooth pause issue. I've tried multiple bluetooth headphones and the button that typically answers calls as well as pause/play does not work. It will answer and hang up, but not pause/play.

While this isn't a huge issue I just wanted to report it as a quick search of this thread didn't bring anything up.

[Vibrant Android Development] hkfan:

[Vibrant Android Development] neur0t0xin64:
The best way to resolve this is to use the "wipe data" feature of Titanium Backup. Wipe the data for email, reboot into recovery and wipe cache, dalvik cache, and fix permissions then reboot. Once you reboot, set up your email again and you should be good to go.
[Vibrant Android Development] gospodruma:
Is there a setting that allows me to activate or put t9 on the phone dialer? Kind of important for me. Awesome rom by the way.

one of the extras is the T9 dialer. look for it on the slim website.

The answer is at the top of page 114 or is on 113. Someone posted a thanks for being led to the fix.
[Vibrant Android Development] Devilisher:
For this use an app called ES File Explorer, if you are using this one first go to settings and

check "Up to Root" and all the "Root Settings".

After that go to /System , click on build.prop and open it with the ES Note Editor

Once it's open the only two changes I did were:

ro.product.model=SGH-I9000

ro.product.brand=Samsung

Then save the file and I re-set it to the original permissions by long pressing build.prop

select "Properties" then "Change" (permissions) and just check:

User: Read, Write

Group: Read

Other: Read

Then reboot to recovery and in the Advanced menu, Fix Permissions.
[Vibrant Android Development] matesc:
Cool!

But does these changes have any effects to other programs? Is working everything else normal?

do i have to re-install viber after that?

Thank you! :)

[Vibrant Android Development] c-prodigo:
Is there a screenshot key combination in this rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
... All ICS roms have it, Vol down+power
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
essentials should include the stock kernel

you need to learn how to use the forum's search button.

also, you can add a screenshot button to the power menu via the ASS menu.

Clearing the cache/data for Zeam did fix the homescreen, but flashing the KB5 ICS modem didn't fix the data problem.

Ive been using Slim for the past week and so far its great! A reboot a day keeps everything running smooth.

couple of issues:

1. GPS is terrible. Vibrant hardware wise has a terrible GPS but previous ROMs ive used were better. Any tips on getting it working "ok" ?

2. Notification buttons dont seem to work, even with enabled in NTools.

3. The volume when I use AUX out with my car is very low. Voodoo app doesn't work with the default kernel. Is there another way I can amp the sound up when using the headphone jack?
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Slim

There is an app called "Volume+", a free and paid version. Never tried it myself, just remember others mentioning it. Worth a shot, at least the free version.
[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
Finding and flashing the SubZero kernel will probably solve issues 1, 2, and 3.

[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
open up a rom that has the sounds you want with any zip program. extract the files you want from the folders and then insert them in the same folder in your current rom & make sure the permissions match (not sure if that would be an issue with ringtones)

i did this to bring out my "bubbles" text message tone. :x
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
I believe permissions have to be rw-r--r--. but I could be wrong.

Hello, I'm helping my friend upgrade her phone cause she's on 2.2 team whiskey or something and it's really laggy as hell. I don't have too much experience with a vibrant phone so it would be appreciated if someone could walk me through. The phone does have CWM 2.5 installed, is it ok to use that to flash? It's a very old CWM.

According to the instructions I need to download a CM9 ROM...so obviously that'd be CM9 however according to this thread all CM9 download links have been removed.

Is there an alternative CM9 ROM that I can use? Thank you for your time everyone.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
I would follow another ICS based rom, like for example, ICS passion. Flash that following their instructions and continue with SLIM's instructions as if you just flashed CM9. This is just me guessing as a work around, but I'm a i897 user not a vibrant user ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] caaznkid:
