What up folks? Most of the names in here I don't recognize, new generation of vibe users. The little engine that could!!

I'm scared to flash these 4.3 ROMs on my vibe as my USB port is broke so Odin is a no go. My vibe is generally used by my daughter for gaming but I would like to give one of these a go. We'll she how dev go's.

[Vibrant Android Development] Iam2Smooth:
What's good? If you're interested in trying a 4.3 ROM, I can verify as I've tried all the current builds. I've had no problems flashing any of them except Whitehawx's AOKP ROM. Since you don't have a working USB port, STAY AWAY FROM THAT ROM. Automatically soft-bricked my phone and broke my CWM TWICE yesterday and I had to Odin back to stock each time :mad:

Oh, and Carbon.. It's a great ROM-- GREAT-- just not stable enough. The ROM broke after two days each time I used it (without bricking my phone! just wouldn't progress beyond booting animation) and I'd just flash it again in CWM. But the dev will probably have an update some time in the coming weeks.

I did have a tricky time installing Pac-Man's unofficial build 4.3 build, but that was fixed with a re-download of the zip and I'm using it now. My favorite one. I can say all the others work just fine, just a matter of which you like since some have more options than others.

Hope this helps! :good::good:

Try and see if any app is continuously running or you have something that is syncing more often. I do get deep sleep on my phone. I dont know about others.

Try the new rom 09/25.

Good luck.

Yeah I have that same problem no good usb port anything you can do replace it?
[Vibrant Android Development] samsgun357:
Yeah you can buy a new port and take the phone apart and replace it. They should be pretty cheap, amazon or www.mobiletechvideos.com, its not to difficult I don't think. I'm sure there are some good how-to videos out there as well.

Build 23 is a bit laggy. battery drain comes mostly from Google services like Gmail and so on.

I dont really get this rom, where is the traditional home screen and dock? All i have is a little folder in the lower right hand corner but I cant long press anything or move anything. I have looked through the settings areas and themes and dont see where I can get the AOSP look back. Am i doing something wrong
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
The slimmed down version doesnt have the trebuchet launcher. You can download a new launcher from playstore.

I will add the default Trebuchet launcher in the next build.
[Vibrant Android Development] nextelbuddy:
ahh gotcha ok that makes sense, sorry for being so dense and missing the point of the rom being a slimmed down version.

thanks for clearing that up and pointing me in the right direction!
[Vibrant Android Development] apples723:
Maybe its me but with out the default launcher and using action launcher the device is much faster compared to PAC man ROM or maybe its just this ROM
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
No need to be Sorry. :)

You are more than welcome to express your opinion or ask questions.
[Vibrant Android Development] samsgun357:
For what its worth I always delete the stock launcher, whatever it is and use nova or something similar. Makes no sense to have two launchers unless you want to jump between different looks. On a phone like the vibe that's starved for memory I try to alleviate as much as I can.

is there something we can do to get better battery life on this rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] testomat:
Try semaphore kernel or use greenify
[Vibrant Android Development] cannondaleV2000:
use both

use both you get great battery life or order the anker 1800mha battery its amazing the diffrence it makes
[Vibrant Android Development] apples723:
I'd like to see trinity kernal for this device I hear that has good battery life
[Vibrant Android Development] cannondaleV2000:

[Vibrant Android Development] apples723:
Wow that would be awesome! keep us updated!
[Vibrant Android Development] cannondaleV2000:
If morfic updates it to 4.3 for the nexus s I'll work on building for the vibrant. But I'm not sure that he will. But I could build something with his source if he doesnt
[Vibrant Android Development] nomadman:
semaphore 3.2 is awesome on this rom. i can't imagine another kernel that can do better (no offense).

You are welcome.

Does your GPS work after DS without having to get a lock before getting into DS?
[Vibrant Android Development] thaniks:
Sorry. What does DS mean? I installed the gps fix zip file and then only tested the gps working.

[Vibrant Android Development] selmandeli:
Yes, GPS works after DS on this ROM :good:. And I get accuracy 6m :victory: This is amazing!
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
DS means Deep Sleep.

You can check if your phone has entered the Deep Sleep if you install CPU Spy from the market and open it.

The thing I am asking you is, when you reboot you phone and leave it for some time ( about 5 mins), your phone would enter into Deep Sleep. This could be checked via the CPU Spy app. After that, try and see if the GPS works. If it doesn't work, you will have to reboot your phone and try GPS after if completely boots up. Once this is done, the GPS will work even after DS as long as the next reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] thaniks:
Yes it works after deep sleep. But I find the battery life little reduced. What kernel do you suggest to improve the battery life without compramizing the GPS functionaility?
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
Give semaphore 3.2.0v a try. Get the semaphore manager from play store for tuning.

[Vibrant Android Development] flapane:
I'm just curious, may I ask you a few details about the source of the so called "GPS fix"?

Did you manage to reverse-engineering the original closed source FroYo GPS libs or what?

I can't try the ROM atm, but it's exciting to hear that things are slowly getting better for Vibrant's GPS.
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
I did not reverse engineer any libs. I went on trying the GPS files I have since the FROYO release and hit upon a combination that works. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
During my own search for working files I found the same files packaged as vibrant-GPS-fix from the fall of 2010. Also, most if not all source built 4.3 roms have this "fix" built in.

Can you upload it to xda servers like you did the gps fix? i can never download from mediafire and im stuck on the 9 something build.
[Vibrant Android Development] thaniks:
OP,

My gps fails to work properly with other kernels after deep sleep. It loses the gps notificatin also. I tried semaphore as well as the other in the forum. But it works flawlessly with the one provided in the ROM. Is there a fix for this?

TIA

[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
I am not dure If I have the permission to upload to XDA server.

I will try.
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
THe GPS fix I have is in the Kernel and the Java code. Hence it works well in my ROMs. Semaphore and other Kernels dont have that change. I am trying to build the Semaphore Kernel and if possible add it as built in kernel with this ROM instead of the stock kernel, I havent yet figured out a way.

I built the Semaphore kernel separately but, I am getting stuck at bootloop. Need to try better and more.
[Vibrant Android Development] thaniks:
That makes sense. Hope you can get that done. Thanks for your time and effort.

[Vibrant Android Development] cashmundy:
Great ROM. Thanks!

As of the 10/9 build, I still (as usual) have no GPS and battery life is terrible (looks like Android System is spin-looping rather than idling). I came from CM 10.1.2 and didn't factory-reset (which may be the cause of problems). Other than GPS and battery, everything works well, even with openpdroid patched in. Will try new builds.
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
GPS should be working. You may try fasterfix to change your ntp value.
[Vibrant Android Development] selmandeli:
GPS working. I only overwrite gps.conf with a custom one. Everything is fast and smooth. Battery drain is about 3%/hour on standby (without WiFi, Bluetooth and 3G). So far no FC or lags.

[Vibrant Android Development] cashmundy:
I'll keep tinkering, but I'll be surprised if GPS ever works well on mine. It hasn't since Froyo or before.

The 1011 build seems to have fixed the battery drain.
[Vibrant Android Development] apples723:
My GPS works great but I still have battery drain

Edit: i went to check my build date and I'm still on 10/3 guess i should update!
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
Nothing in particular as a feature. Most of the updates are fixes and improvements. I keep building the ROM daily and post once in two days just to make sure the whole things compiles and when the features arrive, the ROM should be building without issues. Every build will have some or the other positives, most of which is hard to notice. If you observe, the ROM has become more responsive and smooth lately.
[Vibrant Android Development] apples723:
Anyone else noticed that play store is gone in the latest update? And all the apks I try crash latest version is what I'm tryied
[Vibrant Android Development] selmandeli:
My play store is fine. I have no issues with the latest build 10/13. GPS works after ds. Battery drain is about 3%/hour on standby (without WiFi, data and Bluetooth).

Edit: in fact this is the fastest GPS I ever have. I only replaced the gps.conf file with the custom one.

Uploaded the latest build 10/15/2013. Apart from the changes from CM source, this ROM is built using Linaro 4.8 for speed.
[Vibrant Android Development] apples723:
What is linaro
[Vibrant Android Development] cannondaleV2000:
It is bassicly what compresses and does some optimizations on the kernel (boot.IMG mainly) on the time of compile. And how did you get the ROM compiling with 4.8 toolchain sada I can't get my kernel to compile with it
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
I haven't compiled the kernel with Linaro as there seems to be some issue with building the kernel with Linaro. Seems like the kernel built using Linaro is not booting. Hence I have just built the System with Linaro.
[Vibrant Android Development] cannondaleV2000:
o ok

o ok. well il look into it later. mine just gives me a compile error when trying to compile kernel with 4.8
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
The ROM will build with 4.8 but I think you may need to try 4.7 for the kernel.

Hi OP, thank for bringing up CM10.2 for Vibrant. :good:

Since CM7 my Vibrant GPS not working after deepsleep (without getting GPS lock before deepsleep).

The good thing, this build my Vibrant GPS working after deepsleep.

But the bad thing, after GPS lock my CPU frequency locked at 1000MHz.

BTW, I flash with full wipes.
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
Thanks for the complement. I must say, its not me who brought CM10.2 to vibrant. Its the CM team and the genius developers here in this forum and others in other forums. Its also because of the great testers like all the members in the forums that flash the ROMs and provide excellent feedback.

I worked on the GPS part and am just compiling the source and making it available to the rest as its not feasible for everybody to compile the ROMs.

As for the CPU getting locked at 1000MHz is concerned, I am not sure why its so. As mentioned, genius developers here could figure it out and provide some solution.

[Vibrant Android Development] cannondaleV2000:
For the locked and 1000mhz thing go To performance settings make sure min CPU freq is set to 200mhx and max at 1000mhz and make sure governed is ondemand. Then go to recovery and wipe cache/dalvik cache. If that doesn't work flash semaphore 3.2.0 from stratosk thread and it will fix it

You could follow the links found on the right here: http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps

I've successfully got the 10/25 build up and running for the past week, albeit I've been struggling for some time now to reign in some battery drain and network consumption issues.

A couple questions:

1.) Assuming we've got one of the 10.2 cyanogen ROM's for Vibrant posted here up and running, is it possible to use the

Settings -> About Phone -> CyanogenMod Updates

feature discussed further here: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/74526-how-do-i-update-cyanogenmod/, or is that feature intentionally trimmed out?

2.) Sharing some of my findings regarding battery drain and network consumption issues - can anyone offer further suggestions?

My phone essentially never deep sleeps.

"RILJ" is consistently the top "partial wakelock" source by a long shot, and while I've tried every remedy I can find so far with respect to RLIJ (largely characterized as disabling location access at the app and system levels), nothing seems to work.

I've experimentally found switching the phone to airplane mode DOES solve whatever combination of issues I'm experiencing, permitting deep sleep states and achieving respectable battery life. It seems clear that the issue has something to do with general radio access, Wi-Fi, and/or GPS.

In the past week alone, the android OS (not any app I've traced) has consumed almost 4Gb - more than I've ever experienced. This is without any media streaming. According to BBStats, the top culprit over my last charge cycle was something called "0 (pdp0)" using up 95.9% of the traffic while the phone was mostly off.

All this behavior is occurring in spite of using Greenify to hibernate everything installed(except google voice)

3.) Does anyone know if this would be useful feedback and should be posted somewhere specific in the cyanogenmod forums, or am I correctly guessing feedback from vibrant users isn't really desirable as vibrant is not officially supported due to the E911 thing?

4.) I was hoping to make this build work as my daily driver, but I'm about ready to give up over these data and battery drain issues. Love everything about this ROM once it's in airplane mode, haha! I have since found one anecdotal plug for the 10/15 build here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2485222) - would anyone suggest something more recent to try first without any major issues in practice?
