Yesterday I noticed I was unable to enter text in certain areas, like when creating a new event on the stock calender. I rebooted a few times since then and figured it would go away. Now I cant enter text to search for an app in the market. I push the keys on the keyboard, but nothing shows up in the text box. I did a clean install and everything. It seems after about a month of running any rom, good issues start popping up for me.

Just did another reboot and it is fixed for now. Not sure why it started. Im using the stock keyboard.
[Vibrant Android Development] itsLYNDZ:
Ive been noticing that once i end a call, i seem to get the black screen of death where just the time, data, signal and alarm show in the upper right corner. I can never get it to come back from this. I always have to restart.

Fishman, I tried so many 2.2 roms these months, I found this rom is the best one, thank you! Fishman
[Vibrant Android Development] retrotim:
I searched this forum but didn't see any mention of Play Store but I keep getting force closes. I'm not sure what is going on Can I just go back to an older version of gapps and start from there?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Try going into Setting, Applications, Manage applications and under the Third-party tab find Google play store and click it. Click "Clear data", boot into recovery... clean both caches. Reboot the phone.

Fishman....

In your opinion, what's smoother and faster between this one and the dark slate?

Love the blue color, but been rocking dark slate.

If this bad boy is your primo ROM then it's worth the wife whining about me flashing another ROM!
[Vibrant Android Development] joselamar:
When I click the link for Blue 2.2 Frankenstein in mediafire and try to enter the password to authorize the download, my keyboard just keeps disappearing. Maybe there is something wrong with the file in mediafire?
[Vibrant Android Development] schwick:
Download it on your computer.
[Vibrant Android Development] joselamar:
Can't do it on my laptop 'cause I'm at work and the links are disabled by MIS department :(

If someone could provide the zip file I would appreciate it.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
The zip is to big to put here on XDA... use your phone and tether it to your laptop and DL that way.
[Vibrant Android Development] joselamar:
I got it to work after much persistent....on my phone...
[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
popping/crackling sounds during music playback

Anyone else have this issue?

I've tried using all stock, and also on bali-x kernel.... Same noise interference.

I'll try another ROM (maybe dark slate) and see if it still happens.

Is there any way to get the blue themed xda app for this rom? Love this ROM by the way, great work!

Is there a way to get this blue xda app for thisFrankenstein ROM?

This one?

If so it's an old ver of XDA. Maybe seach Google... not sure
[Vibrant Android Development] iTz KeeFy:
Yea that's the one I'm talking about. I can't seem to find it, I tried to google it before I asked you guys. Its no big deal, great job on this ROM btw.

New Update

I'm going to do one more update for this and each of my other roms.

I was given a HTC One S as a gift and I'm about to buy a Galaxy III. So with 2 new phone to play with, my Vibrant will be put away.

I should have an update for this tomorrow.

Thanks fish!! Will be trying as soon as my phone charges 82%yay! Buddy!! Have a good night bro
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Thanks!

I flash with anything above 50%. I find the flash takes no more then 10% batt life and once the phone boots up, you can plug it into the charger while you are waiting the 10 mins for it to settle it.
[Vibrant Android Development] krazierokz:
Will do im on 93 now anyway times a wasting :D

SMOOTH and Fast Install 136mb no bloat def very fast flash restoring apps as we speak running spiffy and smooth love the overall theming and color tweaks that have been changed you can feel the difference :D thanks alot so is this the last of your updates to froyo for the Vibrant as its retiring :? thanks for all your dedicationg to the community and you will be missed
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Kind of. I am going to do one more release for each of my other roms and then call it a day.... I'll still be around for the Vibrant (I hope and will try) but my main focus will be on the G3... and some to the HTC One S
[Vibrant Android Development] krazierokz:
awesome ! so what would you recommend ? s3 or one s because i still wanted to keep the vibrant but im still stumped as to what to get i like the sleekness of both
[Vibrant Android Development] Jaxidian:
Hey all, I'm looking to get a Vibrant setup for my kid sister and am looking for solid, stable, and some stock features. Fish came highly recommended and this appears to be the latest release, so here I am. (I'm by no means new to rooting/romming, just new to the Vibrant.)

I assume this doesn't have 911 issues because it's Froyo based, right?

Does this include or can this work with Wi-Fi calling?

Any idea if the parent-tracking features from T-Mobile work with this Rom? I've seen these work with some and not with others.

Many thanks for helping me save some time seeing if this Rom is right for her. :)

Sent from my phone. Prepare for atrocious Swype typos.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jaxidian:
By the way, I LOVE my GS3 d2tmo! Just be very careful rooting/romming it. Quite a few people are losing their IMEI internally when flashing the wrong thing or corrupted downloads (allegedly - we don't know for sure the cause but that's what it seems like). And unlike other phones, it's not fixed by a simple EFS restore (we still don't know how to fix it).

Love the device itself, the accessory options, Rom options, and battery life! :)

Sent from my phone. Prepare for atrocious Swype typos.
[Vibrant Android Development] Evil Avnovice:
I wish you the best. When I picked up a T-Mobile Galaxy S II this past May, I pretty much transitioned to the forums there, and occasionally check here for the newest custom froyo rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Correct, No 911 issues

Yes this will work with WiFi Calling but I removed it. Flash this in recovery to restore WiFi Calling - LINK

Not sure about the parent-tracking
[Vibrant Android Development] krazierokz:
just tried out miui again for a few days and what can i say i love my odin image !:D im back again thanks FISH lol is the slim down the same as the new update or should i just flash the new one ..?
[Vibrant Android Development] ali4ek:
Thanks for the ROM, the Odin image worked perfectly for me.

A question: how do I make the search sensor button (the most right one of four) to work in the launcher (i.e. to launch google search)?

I installed Google Search from the market, but still - nothing happens when I press it.

It works in GMail though - it initiates search within my gmail.

So the "button" itself works fine, it's just that it does not initiate any action in the launcher environment.

I installed Go Launcher EX btw, if it matters.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
It's working just as it should for me. I use the nemus launcher.

Tap for Google search, long press for voice search.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Yeah, if you are using the Odin image I messed up with voice search. It needs to be in system/app for it to work correctly with the button.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
I guess that is why it works for me, I flashed the new version.
[Vibrant Android Development] corpsetomb:
Not trying to hijack the thread, but on a little side note, thanks for mentioning the nemus launcher. I hadn't heard of it, and now it's my default launcher! Great app!

Sent from my Bionix slinging, Bali toting Vibrant!
[Vibrant Android Development] ali4ek:
OK thanks I flashed the V2 on top of Odin and it works now.
[Vibrant Android Development] ali4ek:
Is there a way to install Google Talk into this ROM?

Google Play won't even display it when I try to search for it.

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] Toast6977:
That would be in the gapps (Google apps). Doesn't appear to be a separate add-on for this. Looks to be baked in.

So your not seeing Gtalk at all? Could go back go CWM recovery and wipe and flash the ROM again. Or just flash right over this one. Maybe it just didn't install the gapps, v2 appears to have them baked in.

Try that and let's see how that goes.

Edit: since you've just freshly installed this; look for Google Play store to be called Market still. That won't be changed until you open it 2-3 times. You probably were already aware of that, but figured it wouldn't hurt mentioning that.
[Vibrant Android Development] ali4ek:
I just pulled this apk from the latest universal Gapps for Froyo (HDPI version), and simply installed it like a regular app.

http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps

http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Yeah... sorry... been away in another thread.

Gtalk is no more. Google+ replaced it. So I pulled it from the rom. You can get Google+ from the market.

Gtalk will still work just no more updates and can't be downloaded from the market any more. Google+ offers more stuff anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] iTz KeeFy:
I posted a 2.2 compatible gtalk app on moped ryder's Road king thread about a month ago . Its about half way down page 15 of this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1677714. Hit me up with a thanks if you download it.
[Vibrant Android Development] ali4ek:
I did go there and hit "thanks"=)

---------- Post added at 03:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

OK thanks, found the functionality in G+, but it's WAY less convenient than GTalk, for simple quick instant messaging without the new "cool" hangout feature etc.

Anyways, I installed it, it works fine, it seems.
[Vibrant Android Development] YuvalW:
Hi,

For some reason, on the GMail app ALL mails appear in bold text as if they are unread (although they are not new). I know it might be a fonts issue, any idea? Thx.
[Vibrant Android Development] Woofdah:
GPS problems

Fish are you still around? Got tired of bad or no GPS in the JB roms so I odined back to my favorite - Blue Frank. After Odining I flashed the full 2.2. Everything is working great with the exception of GPS. I have always had very good GPS on my phone with Froyo ROMS? Have you heard of others having problems after coming back from JB? Any thoughts on a fix.
[Vibrant Android Development] krazierokz:
re-download your GPS state

you probably still have your old gps libs configured you should clear your gps status and then download them again GPS status or any GPS tool program make sure wifi is turned off to get accurate location if that doesnt work flash the S.gps fix :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Woofdah:
That was it. Thanks. Good as new again.
[Vibrant Android Development] krazierokz:
Glad to help when you said GPS on this ROM i was like o no ....:D take it EZ
[Vibrant Android Development] YuvalW:
Hi,

Any help on installing the original TouchWiz 4 on this?? I couldn't find the right zip to flash.

Thx.
[Vibrant Android Development] schwick:
Idk where to find the original Touchwiz but if you just want a Touchwiz launcher download it here http://www.i900playeraddict.com/android/TW45/HowTo.php
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Twiz 4.0 or 3.0... the Vibrant originally came with the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk

If it's the original Twiz 3.0 you are looking for... here ya go... flash thru recovery

View attachment TouchWiz30Launcher.zip
[Vibrant Android Development] YuvalW:
Thx!

I'm sorry, by original I probably meant to say "official", do you know where I can find tw4.0? I googled like maniac and couldn't find it...

Thx again.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
I have it at home somewhere... I'll try to post it tonight

[Vibrant Android Development] krazierokz:
No worries brother i was just pointing out the facts :D lol it was just nice to always have some kind of minor/major update on something but i have more than plenty options you gave us to the community long live the Vibrant the new G1 lol take it ez enjoy your weekend Fish!
[Vibrant Android Development] razielpr:
Where do i get the PIT file???
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
PIT file???

For?

Your asking from a T-Mobile Galaxy S3 (SGH-T999)... hope you don't mean for that!

... but if you mean for the T-Mobile Vibrant Odin image for this rom... you can download the correct ver of Odin and pit file from here - LINK
[Vibrant Android Development] joselamar:
Hey Fishman, does the blue include the latest fishman-mod V4?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Yes... the last ver of all my Vibrant roms have the same tweaks.
[Vibrant Android Development] crysto25:
I am actually trying that at the moment but I cant seem to alphabetically arrange them like old twiz does, it alphabetically arranges them each window that would fit.. From a to z and starts a new one on other windows.. Lol
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
That's the one thing that Tw 4 does... it seems to a-z everything per page unless you manually arrange all of them.... then it "starts" to arrange all of the them for you. Also, when you DL new apps, it will put them at the end till you reboot

EDIT: I set the "Overshoot value" under "Homepage Settings" to 35 and for "App Drawer" to 25... for me, it seem to have the best overall feel
[Vibrant Android Development] muleyman:
Running pretty well, so far. Installed the camera via SGSTools and FFC is working. Some of the games I've played on ICS ROMs are a little sluggish so I'll try and dig up an OC-capable kernel later today and give it a try. This looks really nice!
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
May I suggest Bali-X - LINK
[Vibrant Android Development] jneal9:
Hey fishman. Nice rom. OP says you've been trying to find a nice blue swype. Not sure if you've looked at any of these by djdarkknight. Some of them are pretty slick.
[Vibrant Android Development] muleyman:
Thanks! I'll download it and try it out in a day or two. I found a link to Immortality and am using it right now. I OC'd it to 1.2 and it SOD'd on me... and now that I think about it my phone never did like the OC thing... I had one freeze up with the stock kernel- playing Slacker while navigating the whole thing just locked up. I've tried to re-produce that on Immortality, (not OCd), but haven't had the issue - and that's obviously not ROM related.
[Vibrant Android Development] crysto25:
ive had issues while playing games with immortality. it would either lag or freeze. but its probably just my phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Thanks... :D
[Vibrant Android Development] steveyoo97:
I just flashed this ROM (after full wipe) with Bali X.

I set it to 1200 max and 200 min ondemand and i got an SOD :(

Trying interactive governor now, hopefully that helps. Will report back.

*EDIT* *update* SOD with interactive gov too. Going to reflash and stick with stock kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] |Logic|:
I'm on final v2 with bali-x heavily UV'ed. I have it oc'ed to 1.2 and min 100. I/o is cfq and governor is conservative and my phone runs perfectly

---------- Post added at 10:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 PM ----------

hey fishman, great rom. Is there anyway you could port the Android unlock lockscreen from the ICS theme to this? Here it is. It's so clean, I flash the ics theme just to use it lol. :D

And a screenshot.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
most of the lockscreens are getting an overhaul for RC2.... I may do something like in that with the 4 tab and android

i vaguely remember reading something about the vibrant not being able to use different governors but i may be wrong

[Vibrant Android Development] itsLYNDZ:
Not a big fan of the wifi, gps, mute, etc buttons. A ported/replicated mattedblues theme from CM would be awesome tho! Never seen one for a 2.2 and always wanted one
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
That wouldn't be to hard... I'm pulling Axura part right now and it has a cm'ish look for that... anyone else that would like that?
[Vibrant Android Development] pxc668:
I just used one day today, but I feel the battery is not good as FishmanMod Final 2, maybe because it's the first day, I think I should wipe battery on CMW and see it tomorrow.

Another problem is I found when I use this ROM, it always shown no service/no signal, I am using Tmobile now in USA.

others I think until now it's pretty smooth and I like it.
[Vibrant Android Development] itsLYNDZ:
Do ittttttt! Mattedblues would be awesome!
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
It's a quick build, need to fix the colors... but something like this?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Maybe this....
[Vibrant Android Development] itsLYNDZ:
That looks good
[Vibrant Android Development] itsLYNDZ:
I think this one looks the best
[Vibrant Android Development] WiteFlash:
Yes. It's pretty annoying. You will also run into problems if you try to set the grid to 5x5 on the home screen. The icons don't really fit right on the screen and if you open a folder it displays it too large (it looks like it runs into the next screen). I remember the launcher force-close looping once because it wasn't happy with my 5x5 layout (especially if you have shortcuts on the bottom row right above the dock).

In general, I don't like how a lot of the launchers populate folders one app at a time. Go Launcher seems to do it the best, by immediately giving you the choice of which apps to include in a folder and allowing you to add additional apps right from the folder itself, but the launcher is laggy. If some of the annoying issues were fixed in TW4 launcher, I'd probably go back to using it because it really is smooth.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
question for ya all... blue phone or white like the rest of the tabs?
[Vibrant Android Development] Killer0515:
I like it like you have it on this pic its just awesome!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Look again... I posted both ver's
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
my vote is for the white. looks cleaner with everything uniform
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
So be it...

Updated - RC2

Updated Google Apps to latest.

Changed Back to Bali v1.8.8.UV (Voodoo enable)

Some more Optimization of images

Tons of images changed and a little theming by me

[Vibrant Android Development] Evil Avnovice:
I'd like to compliment you on your theming fishman. It's very gorgeous, and the font looks incredibly sharp. :)

Slightly off-topic: I was extremely dissappointed with Crysis Revolution when it came to Bionix 1.3.1, as everything was poorly misaligned, and was ugly to boot, but this shames it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Evil Avnovice:
Also, shout outs to having a custom rom that doesn't compromise one screen lock to keep another. (Star Wars and 4-tab in one place? Yum.)
[Vibrant Android Development] Gunsmith_Cats:
Let's just say I had to download rc2 and then perform a odin and then the sd card and the phone memory a true cleaning out and let me say this rom has been incredible as per usual:-) it is very smooth and with twiz its amazing:-) great mod man looking forward to the axura.build ps ill run this until then!

+1. This is the first time I've used a Froyo ROM since my captivate got the update two years ago. I'm one of the unlucky ones where things never quite worked right on any of the ICS ROMS.

So far this has been working great!
[Vibrant Android Development] importbeats:
Fish... on RC2 over a day now.. something wierd... can you please check the alarms in "Clock"? I set my alarm to 2am, 2:15am, 2:30am, etc... and once you hit "Done" it then reads 3am, 3:15, etc... I dont know what's wrong. Always worked normal before.

...its very important to me. I use my alarm clock to wake up for work. :)

Thanks!

...Also, when I set it to 1AM, it IS 1am.... 3am is 3am. 4 is 4... but for some reason anything I try to set in the 2:00-2:59am range changes to 3:xx a.m. after I hit "done". And I just happened to need to wake up in the 2am range. X_X
[Vibrant Android Development] jvpde:
If you set them yesterday, it's probably because of DST. After 1:59am this morning, the clock went to 3:00am.
