[Vibrant General] Woody:
Hello all,

Many of you know me from around the boards here and I have tried to help most of you at one time or another. Well, as you can see from both my avatar and my signature, I have a new title and a new device. The TMobile BOGO SGS3 and SGS2 was too sweet of a deal and the family CFO, pulled the trigger (fyi, the CFO is NOT me ;))

With that being said, I will probably be limiting my time in the Vibrant fora for the near future. I still don't know what devices I will be allocated as I just received notice yesterday. Between mine and my wife's phones and tablets and the devices I will be assigned to, I will be stretched thin at first.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone in here that has helped me. I was a new user once too and fortunately someone was there to help me. That has always been my philosophy. They helped me when I was panicking, so the least I can do is help someone else when they are panicking. After all these are expensive little toys we have here, eh? If you check eBay's Vibrant listings, there are very reasonably priced, which means that there will be an influx of new users soon enough with their questions, bootloops and PC connectivity issues. Please try to help them as much as you have helped me.

**********************

With that being said, I am going to post a thread probably this weekend or next with some of the older harder to find files hosted in my Dev-Host account. They will be in there for as long as I have the internet (meaning there is no expiration and the files won't get stale and deleted). I am not going to put any ICS/JB ROMs in there bc they are all still fresh and new, so they should be readily available. Same with ICS/JB kernels

What I need is some of the older files that were either hosted on Multi or Mega that are gone. Below is a list of what I have already. If you can, please PM me a link to any files that you might think would be worthwhile to put on there. This will not be a BIBLE and shouldn't be used as a Q&A, hence the Repository Title.

Files I have:

Stock 2.1 JFD (Pit/Tar files)

Eugene's Froyo that Does Not Brick

Bootloaders:

Froyo Bootloaders

Gingerbread Bootloaders (I have all three)

2.1 JFD with GB bootloaders already injected.

Odin/ Heimdall/ AIO Toolbox:

4 different versions of Odin

2 Versions of Heimdall

AIO Toolbox

Themes:

Almost all 2.2/2.2.1 themes

Bootanimations:

About 20 Boot Animations

ROMs:

Zendroid

Toxic8 (Original and not Fish's mod)

Deranged9 (Original and not Fish's mod)

Bionix (Original and not Fish's mod)

CM7.1 Stable

Kernels:

All 2.2/2.2.1

All 2.3.x

****************

This list is just off memory, but if there is something that you like or need, either send me a PM to include it or send me a link with it included so I can download and then upload to my Dev-Host acct.

Be easy my friends and I will still be lurking. And if for some reason they decide to give me the Vibrant threads with OKA1, I will still be putting this repository together.
[Vibrant General] Exel:
Hey Woodrube,

You've been of much assistance in the Vibrant forums as well as other forums. We worked on that petition together and unfortunately, that didn't go too well. You've helped a lot of people across the forums and you deserve a new device! Have fun with it and thanks for taking the time to write guides and post useful information. Frankly, I like my Vibrant better than my Nexus S so I'll prolly stick around for a while, so, if anything, I can take over your threads if you don't have time. I don't mind helping at all and we share the same philosophy.

"I was a new user once too and fortunately someone was there to help me. That has always been my philosophy. They helped me when I was panicking, so the least I can do is help someone else when they are panicking."

It's sad to see you go, but you deserve a new toy to play with, so have fun with it!

Maybe you can PM me the new thread layout you were going to make so I can post it up (That way I can edit it and add files, etc. as I have files downloaded as well.) Of course, credit will be given where credit is deserved.

And once again, thank you for everything you've done in the Vibrant community!
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Ya, that petition didn't pan out too well, got me an infraction too, but it is still active believe it or not. Last post wasn't too far off. Was a very passionaite plea and the 4 of us did our best. I actually used it as a reference with my RC application.

As far as the Repo thread, I'll still post it up and put the files in there. The reason for it is because there are soo many files out there that are needed and lost or just plain don't download anymore. When I got the RC, they gave me 40gb for free with unlimited up/downloads and no expiration date. So that isn't too bad a deal. Like I said, I still don't know what devices they will assign me too but I'll still be around, just sparingly.

Thanks for the kind words too.
[Vibrant General] yosup:
@Woodman ...

You know my story already esp. how our "discussions" in your infamous ICS guide was monumental in building my confidence to make the jump ... into frenzied flashing fever. The journey's been all-good ever since (regardless of EU and the quirky hiccups along the way). :D

I had lurked for a very long time before even signing up for an account and then even posting a comment or question - ie. leary (& even already tired then) of the discouraging short-fused quips many-a-n00b had faced.

All it took was the patient demeanor and sage guidance of one person (el Wood Meistro) to change my perspective. You set the standard for being a class act, my friend.

I must say I've been impressed with the new stock of Vibrant regulars lately, and your empathetic philosophy definitely lives on through them. Wherever you end up, we'll all look forward to hitting that Thanks button on your future posts to come.

( In the meantime, I'll still see ya in our favorite watering hole ... :D )
[Vibrant General] ShadowFoxRedux:
I am one of the new vibrants users WoodRube has helped. I would like to say thank you once again for the help that you provided to this newb. Im sure there are many many more here that you have helped previously, and for that I say thank you. May you enjoy you're new direction to the fullest.
[Vibrant General] samsgun357:
Hey woody, which device is yours and which is the CFO's?

sent from the depths of helly bean
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Ha!! I love my wife but what do you think? She loves her GS2 now though.

I've got SGS3 w/JB leak, SGS2 w/ lighting fast ICS (compared to her last phone), my Transformer w/ICS or JB depending on my mood, her Nook Color with CM7.2 on it, maintaining my BIL's DroidX (due for upgrade) and last night my FIL asked me to set him up with a phone & tablet. Thank God my other in-laws are iOS fanboys/girls.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ktetreault14:
My mom dropped her phone in a puddle of water earlier.. the phone is perfectly fine, but there is a headset in the top corner without one being plugged in. Very urgent that it is fixed. I'm going to try to and stick a q-tip without the fuzzy part on it.. maybe put a piece of white rice in it?

Edit: keyboard is fine now
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Doesn't sound perfectly fine to me. It should be shut off NOW and not turned back on until it's spent at least 24 hours submerged in a dehydrant...like you said some raw white rice. Leave it closed when you do.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ktetreault14:
Will try that . Thanks for the reply
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Yeah, never give a wet electronic power. White rice for a day or so and hope nothing got shorted out when you powered it on. And when I say white rice, stick the whole phone in a closed container with lots of white rice
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
And take it apart, ie battery and back off and sim out and sd card out... All in rice too of course.

::Respect::
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
LOL...yeah, I MEANT to say with the keyboard slid in.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ktetreault14:
Its all good noe.. took a blow dryer to it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Bad idea as if it is hot enough on a certain part you could warp the mother board or other things. I know this as it happens a lot :rolleyes:

::Respect::
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
Never do that, it makes things worse. Your blowing water into the device, it may dry after a while. But you'll have intensive heat damage. Never, ever blow dry an electronic. Vacuum out the water.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
A vacuum cleaner promotes static electricity which could also damage things
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Only thing I know to work and not create any new problems would be rice. I have water damaged like 4 phones (not Androids...I'd cry...) and the best thing is setting them in rice and going to sleep.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Personally....I'd stick with the Uncle Ben's.;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Just reflash a new ROM :D flashing a new ROM makes the device heat up to the point that it can evaporate the water inside Haha! Just joking... :p

Anyways glad enough it survived the water corrosion I'm not sure about how hot the air gets blown from a blow dryer into the phone but I don't think it's enough? Although I saw on one of nokia's technicians long ago where they use hot air to melt lead to remove parts from a phone.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] sark666:
Your app looks interesting. Seeing as you've developed a camera app, maybe you would be able to shed some light on the low fps in low light settings with the nexus 7. Maybe this is too low level OS wise and you wouldn't be able to answer but I'm just curious. I'm wondering if it's a software issue that caps the fps (maybe increasing the exposure to take in more light) in low light settings. I've seen videos of the nexus 7 in bright light settings and even though others knock the camera, I am competely happy with it in good lighting, but when the fps drop to single digits, it's pretty bad.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Connecter:
Hello,

I bought the app and I like it. Something I miss is a macro mode. Is it possible to have it? Without it didn´t make much sence for me. I make 90% near pictures with the Galaxy S 2! Thx

Edit: I search the thread by google. Now I see it is in the nexus 7 section. Why? I also can buy it (GS 2). So maybe it will be better in the global android app section?

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Warrior1975:
Wow...has just about every permission possible.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Mobileillusion:
Hi,

I have just updated the app (version 1.1.1) to support 720p video recording without need to be root or change any profile.

About the excessive permissions required, I think you are right. The app is based on Android 4.1 open source code camera app by Google and I used the same permissions. I will check on next release all the permissions and remove all not needed. Sorry for this.

On the problem about low fps in low light conditions I think it's a hardware problem but I have to check if it could be improved modifying some parameters on software camcorder.

Regards,

Ignacio.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SPreston2001:
Man this is great!! Once the permissions get updated I'll be all over this! Thanks for your hard work!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] soulysephiroth:
If I recall right, under the shops options, you can remove permissions from apps.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] sark666:
Ok, I'll keep an eye on this. I was really hoping it's not a hardware issue. If so, could it have been intentional to allow more light in per frame? It's really a shame if this is a hardware issue.

What do you think?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] addicted2phones:
Will that even apply to us in the uk and europe. And i don't like the term "very soon"
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ygorp:
Hard to believe it all.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] romdroid.:
Lol let them release ics first
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Jaocagomez:
After this annoucement they off course will update Our razr maxx to jelly bean, the question is when....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] romdroid.:
Why only maxxx? :confused:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Semseddin:
I will only believe this announcement if Jelly Bean for RAZR XT910 become real before the end of the year.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] WillKennerley:
ICS has been out for weeks..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] DrUnKenSTeiN:
It's not in our phones though so its the same as "it isn't out".That regarding Europe.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jadephyre:
When I see the fastboot-files for JB emerge, then I will believe it...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] reaperzero:
expect a waiting period of now to infinity
[Motorola Droid RAZR] saloums7:
It took them 6 months to release ICS in the states... in Canada only 9... some people still waiting... I'll believe JB when I see it :P not even gonna bother hoping this gets officially released
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rezoundness:
Very soon to the carriers.. Then expect the carriers in the USA to take 9 months more...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] romdroid.:
Not in Europe
[Motorola Droid RAZR] maarawoe:
"Before the end of the year" but what year? 2014 would be adequate to their attitude :(

Sent from that su*kin-fu*kin piece of sh*t with a locked bootloader...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ales100i:
I think they probably will release it this year, cause the leap from ics to jb is a small one, just a few changes. So they should release it in one month not three. But this is trying on their side to get customers back. They won't admit it but they lost a lot of customers with their attitude. But it is too little to late. Interest in their new phones is virtualy non existent. Nobody is getting exited and that is a sign of bad things to come for the company. They will try evrything now even maybe to unlock the bootloader, but nobody cares anymore...most of us are just waiting for contract to expire and to move on. RIP Motorola.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] maarawoe:
I partialy agree with you BUT:

"So they should release it in one month not three." - we will be happy if they release it in three months instead of 9....

"even maybe to unlock the bootloader" - I am affraid that they are to proud to do something like this...

"but nobody cares anymore" - in fact there are users who doesn't care about rooting, roms etc and from that point of view are the motorolas phones good choice as the hw is great...

"RIP Motorola." - right... Motorola lost nearly all their powerusers....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] geemacd:
I think it will happen & you are going to see a complete swing shift now that the Google takeover is complete and they have started putting their personnel in charge, as well as the lay offs etc.

I know they originally said that they would let it run as a stand alone but I think the company is too big a worldwide name for them to let fail, they would lose too much face if they let that happen. You also have people that have now not lost their job, bricking it that it may still happen and looking to make names for themselves within the company and in that environment anything can happen.

Biggest thing for me is for another Operation Mosh should be ran right now and by everyone that possibly can, with the noises they are making about upgrades, changes that are being made in the company, new phones and bootloader unlock tools etc, I think the time for a push on this has never been better to try accomplish this goal.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tomoooo:
Or worst case scenario, they will do what they did with 2.3.6 update to nonefigs when ics update was announced. They will dump it :), because ICS was so close :), just now they will do it with 4.0.4.

Just joking (hopefully :))
[Motorola Droid RAZR] skatterbug:
I just hope something leaks so the devs can get into it, because my wife was still running official 2.3.6 on her RAZR, nothing custom ever flashed on it and when the notification came through for the OTA ICS update Australia it just failed at instal everytime, i even took it out of cache folder and attempted manual installs all different ways and just kept failing... Upside was, my wife finally let me root and flash her phone so she now knows what she was missing out on lol.

So basically, going by past experience Moto would be better off sending there updates direct to the devs so it can be fixed and improved :P

[Motorola Droid RAZR] PolishPoet:
I like soon better than never.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Thank Me Later:
I don't believe we will get it, why? Because even though JB is a great update to ICS it's not as big of a jump as going to ICS from GB. So it is definitely do able pushing this update to us. I don't think Motorola or Verizon any longer cares for our RAZR or Maxx. They already have moved onto their newer and better devices.

RAZR M

RAZR HD

RAZR Maxx HD

To name the Verizon ones. Motorola also has

ATRIX HD & Photon Q they've released this last summer. That's 5 newer devices a head of us current RAZR owner's, is Motorola still gonna care about pushing JB to our phone's? Only time will tell lol.

I'm not trying to be negative because believe me!! I want JB on my phone sooo bad, my Maxx lags on ICS no matter how many times I factory reset it. But nothing makes me think we'll get JB, I really really hope Motorola and Verizon prove me wrong and deliver us JB!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] reaperzero:
you know i would pay a good amount of cash if someone shouts "what year?" when they have an official announcement, and its recorded! for great jusice
[Motorola Droid RAZR] maarawoe:
Yes, but you know.....its motorola.... The ics has been announced for Q1, then for Q2, now is Q3 and in the same way could be "the end of the year" changed to Q1 2013, Q2 2013 etc......

Check this post again on 1.1.2013 and if you still have the Razr, there is most likely still no JB at this time...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Thank Me Later:
It's more on the carrier than the manufacturer in my opinion. GSM gets more support because more of the world uses it. Not saying Motorola, Samsung, HTC, or any company that manufactures Android devices isn't to blame, but Verizon/ the carriers more than likely has final say on which of their phones they want to push updates to. It makes more cents for Verizon to promote and support their newer phones over older devices.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Bric10:
If this is Googles way of saying "we are taking it from here" I couldn`t be more satisfied. Only thing that in any way could make up for the lies and delays in the ICS roll-out would be a fast (and good) JB roll out.

What has anoyed me the most in the whole ICS/Razr story is not as much missing out on ICS, as having bought the best and most inovative hand set on the market - only to find the magnement of the firm threat it like a mere cash cow and apparently regard its customers as morrons ready to accept any level of abuse and lies (if I wanted that treatment I`d bought something from The United Fruit Company)).

So if this means Google has taken over; I´m ready for my next Moto. On the other hand I´m more than willing to see this as just another play from Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf of Motorola. Google/Motorola needs to deliver soon if this is to have any effect.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Faekie:
However the cdma version on verizon were among the first to receive ICS. Only a few gsm razrs has got official ICS so far and then it is for the retail versions.
