Does anybody get a spammer thru text message. Asking about Electronic Cigarette? I have test other JB rom and never receive those message. Seem that Slim Bean have AD spammer
[Vibrant Android Development] joe98200:
As much as I love my ecig hobby, I haven't gotten text message spam on this ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
No spam on Slim guys...it's the stupid free live wallpapers and games you install. I had that happen in the past
[Vibrant Android Development] ToStymiedBoar:
Amen to that brother!!! I vote to have it baked into the ROM for those who may find the install daunting.
[Vibrant Android Development] Hung0702:
Agreed, I'm going to have to hold off on this script until this weekend. Can't afford to have my phone out of commission during exam week. Nandroid backups always leave me with a broken ROM that force closes randomly.
[Vibrant Android Development] hurtz777:
I would highly recommend getting Autokiller Memory from the play store and set it to at least "strict" It always leeps 60-100MB free and I have never experienced lag on JB and it is just one installable apk that is easy use with no scripting involved snd works just as good as or more efficiently then V6 Supercharger IMHO.

I've said it before I'll say it again. Best ROM out there. But I have two issues I'm wondering if any one else is having. I can't make 911 calls and no GPS lock
[Vibrant Android Development] DKM119:
Suddenly I've start getting "insufience storage available" when I went to update some apps... any ideas?

Never mind. I have I found the problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Can someone else confirm that e911 is not operational. GPS is a crap shoot on the 959. I tried getting gps up but I couldn't lock on to one bird.

Please share the problem/ solution as I'm sure you are not the only one with this issue.

Yep, that's the post. Follow the instructions. Use the windows service.jar patch instructions. The fastest rom will become ridicously faster, believe me!

Enable Fast Charge and plug it into the wall. Close enough.

And I thought this was the Slim Bean thread, not the Supercharger thread.

I've been running the vsync build with the newest Semaphore since it was uploaded. Pretty snappy, but couldn't tell the difference between this and a non vsync build. I don't see our phones getting any zippier than this combination. Good work, guys.
[Vibrant Android Development] Hung0702:
Could you provide me a more direct/less snarky opinion of Supercharger? You're implying that it would do next to nothing for SlimBean?

I actually just tried to use the google now feature of slim bean and when I went to look up the weather it was displayed in Celsius and not Fahrenheit. Is there a way to change it. I looked through settings and could not find anything obvious. Thanks for any help.

i have a strange problem with APN settings. It just cannot be saved. I press «save» and blank APN list appears.

I have a baseband, my apns-conf.xml have rw-r--r-- set. Can't understand :crying:
[Vibrant Android Development] Civil Disobedient:
The ability to activate Wifi does not work after switching the DPI to 240. The switch in settings turns a grey color and is does not respond to any touches; the notification button will activate, but does not actually turn on the Wifi. It appears to work fine right after the initial flash before changing the DPI.

I have re-flashed, even tried Odin to Stock --> CM7--> CM9 --> SB2.5; stock -->CM&7 -->CM10 --> SB2.5 and the issue is persistent.

Any help of recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I have no real skill at this other than following the instructions for flashing.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Perhaps is a modem issue.. Flash KB5 or KA7 without the power cable installed (weird right) http://code.google.com/p/modems/downloads/list

I'm running mine @240 and my WiFi is purring along great. Never heard of this, is it showing any access points when you toggle wifi? Try to reboot your router or you might wanna do a clean wipe including formatting system
[Vibrant Android Development] renardk764:
911 works fine on Slim Bean 2.5.0v coupled with Semaphore 2.1.2v. Just tested it. FWIW, T-Mobile doesn't use gps from the cell phone for location determination. They use triangulation.

I'm thinking about flashing this rom but how is the GPS situation right now with the recent 2.5.0 SlimBean?

Also, any kernal's that you guys think is mandatory with this rom that'll help in battery life and speed?
[Vibrant Android Development] phenom69:
911 works fine with me running slimbean 2.5
[Vibrant Android Development] snc74:
Very good in both things. Semaphore kernel (baked w/slim) is very good, and the battery life is pretty good too. Gps works fine, but takes some time to have locks- just the 1st time- PM for more details

Hey, I've got a problem that's persisted ever since ICS hit the Vibrant last summer. The default browser's Quick Controls don't work in landscape. Still doesn't work on JB. I posted a thread about this a long time ago and still don't have a useful response. FYI, charging has nothing to do with it.

hi.

i have a problem.

when phone turns on

it gives the following error:

<<A problem was detected with your device. Your device IMEI number is invalid. An invalid IMEI number could cause network issues including the inability to call emergency numbers.>>

but before i used Froyo, GB and ICS on this device and there was no errors...

wht is this?

how to fix it ?

or i have to roll back to ICS ??
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Zukko, you should have a backup/ efs folder on your SD card. Copy efs folder to root/ and reboot into recovery and Fix Permissions . Reboot and see. I've never had this problem thankfully. If you still have problems, fully wipe including format system and reflash the rom. If that doesn't help then you're going to have to take a trip down Odin lane.

---------- Post added at 01:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 AM ----------

Edit: first try the full wipe and reinstall rom if not then efs fix. good luck

GPS locks successfully

my GPS is working with 2.5 / 2.6 and Devil's 1.6.1. In average, I see about 10 birds, locking to 3 - 7, accuracy 8m. To use navigation and / or maps, however, I need to run "GPS test" prior to starting maps, and "GPS test" needs a lock (which usually happens after a while).

Coming from San Francisco, I drove down to Monterey using the navigation app, successfully navigated to the hotel, and didn't get a single "GPS signal lost" or "redirecting...".

Very happy with this!! I was wondering what "GPS test" does to make "maps" work? Any ideas?
[Vibrant Android Development] svavrek:
Is there going to be an expected "FINAL" build for this ROM? I'd like to just flash one and one w/ the SlimBean for my T959. I love the ROM, but am tired of updating weekly.... would rather wait until there is a final build w/ everything working. And if someone can get the damn GPS working I'd love you.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
Either when Krarvind stops or next android release lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
You must be new to XDA because every single rom I've been on since Jan 2011 has had continuous updates till labelled RC or Stables or something to that effect. CM10 usually updates every night.
[Vibrant Android Development] davidbauer:
I appreciate all your hard work I love flashing a new ROM every week keeps It fresh :) even without the GPS this rom makes this phone 100x better than what would otherwise be stock awesome!

These devs are saints, miracle workers, pioneers and visionaries. I sincerely hope we are all contributing financially enough
[Vibrant Android Development] asdf916:
then stop updating weekly if you're tired of it. if they could release a final build that has everything working, they already would. if you want a working GPS, get a different phone.

I'm in love with this ROM...I would suggest everyone to use the latest 2.6 and then install 'auto killer memory' app. I changed the settings to aggressive and I can tell that my phone is super smooth and fast.

I am just using the stock SlimBean 2.6 and semaphore kernel no special settings or tricks to get more battery life.

Has anybody got a stable OC setup going with Semaphore? I'm not sure where to tackle this with all the cool features I get with the kernal. I would like to use Deep Idle and PM_FAST but I'm not sure if they are causing the phone to shut off. I'm not sure if its my governor and scheduler combinations but I'd like to keep from doing constant battery pulls.

I keep reading for other devices SmartassV2 with SIO is amazing but I haven't been able to keep my phone on long enough to tell.
[Vibrant Android Development] samsgun357:
Its probably deep idle. When I try to use it my phone turns off as soon as the screen turns off. It requires a battery pull to turn it back on.

Paranoid, sitting in a deep sweat...
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Sounds like you need to start from scratch and re- flash the rom after a factory wipe and format system. Ive been using CFQ ans SmartAss lately and runs well no OC
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
OC is different per device. Didle also depends on device and you might need to mess with framework (i havent tried in a while so don't know if it changed) and if your phone doesn't like it you will get SoD. PM fast messes with how Wifi will work while sleeping.
[Vibrant Android Development] davidbauer:
Same experience with deep idle avoid
[Vibrant Android Development] ast32:
Yes, that was exactly what was going on. Bummer, Deep Idle would be useful if it worked.

I don't think that was the case. I went into 2.6 fresh with the latest Semaphore 2.2sv kernel. I was playing around with the features and didn't take note really of what worked. I thought Deep Idle was a safe bet considering I used it in a different kernel back on SlimICS.

What steps should I consider if I wanted to mess with the framework? It'll be a lot of work but the benefits of Deep Idle are quite meaningful.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
I don't remember the specifics. But if your phone doesn't like Didle Top=On probably won't like it with Top=off. I could be wrong my i897 never liked it.
[Vibrant Android Development] gotreef:
When upgrading from 2.5 to 2.6, how does 3x flash appear to you guys? For me it went:

1x Failed with a dead android guy in background

2x Reboot ~5-10 seconds into the flash

Now I'm seem unable to get into recovery mode. I'm trying the Vol Down + Power to no avail for the last 10 minutes or so and I'm starting to become concerned that I borked something somehow.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
If you lost recovery flash newest semaphore with ODIN or Heimdall then flash again
[Vibrant Android Development] gotreef:
Thanks for the quick response. I usually just follow instructions posted by others so my understanding of underlying principles is fairly weak. What I should be doing is:

Download the "Semaphore_ICS_1.3.0s.zip" located @ http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1468795 because I'm using SlimROM. With this I just need to push the file to my phone using Heimdall (Haven't used this program in forever so I'll have to read up on that).

After flashing semaphore, I should be able to go ahead and reflash 2.6 the third and final time or is multiple flashing still required?

Edit: apparently I'm terrible at reading. What I obviously meant to say was that I'm going read all the instructions and build a Heimdall compatible file using Cygwin.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
Once you flash the kernel with Odin/semaphore should be just 1 flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] samsgun357:
FYI, in case you don't know, you need the kernel .tar not .zip. with Odin. Just put it in the PDA spot in Odin and run it.

Paranoid, sitting in a deep sweat...
[Vibrant Android Development] gotreef:
Ah man, that would have been super helpful a half-hour ago :rolleyes:

I managed to terrible my way to get everything kosher. I ended up using heimdall instead of Odin but this method certainly seems easier.
[Vibrant Android Development] Moronig:
Just a test note: ADB over network is not working, at least when enabled from the settings. It doesn't stay enabled.
[Vibrant Android Development] Neebx:
It happened exactly like this for me.

First time it just failed telling about the partition layout, second time it rebooted to recovery 5 secs into the flash, third time it rebooted again and got stuck on the "Vibrant" screen.

I tried Vol up + Power, Vol down + Power, Up + Down + Power, and on the 5th try after pulling the battery (holding Up + Down + Power) I got it to boot to recovery, then flashed again and now it's working perfectly.
[Vibrant Android Development] cale42:
Same experience for me flashing. Luckily I got into recovery on my first try but it took a lot longer than normal. Probably 60 seconds of waiting to get into recovery. Giveni was on the road and had no USB cable I was definitely sweating.

An observation, I had my first Android OS bug that I can ever remember on a Slim ROM last night on 2.6.

[Vibrant Android Development] awong6687:
What I found with my GPS is I will get birds to show up pretty quickly about 4 or 5 and then I wait about another 2 to 3 minutes before I get any of them to lock. I usually get anywhere from 1 to 3 to lock and get within 100ft accuracy. I am stock everything and did not perform the hardware fix on my phone. I have to say nothing beat the GPS on previous ICS roms, but luckily I do not have to rely on it everyday so it is good enough for me. I am guessing one day someone might be able to improve it, but until that day we will just have to wait.
