Just a few more minutes folks. All who are on the pre-release can get back to a working ROM with no bugs.
[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
Here you go! Make sure you unzip it.

http://www.mediafire.com/?kqaulorzx5f6dyq

I tested it and everything worked perfect for me. Let me know if you have any issues.
[Vibrant Android Development] daweedk1991:
Out of curiosity, does anyone know if the stock rom has the same partitioning scheme as the beta rom? Or does it actually matter?
[Vibrant Android Development] djunio:
Nice, glad to see you back developing, can't wait to see what you can come up with.
[Vibrant Android Development] kopykatkiller:
Here goes nothing. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] TGA_Gunnman:
Great Job!! You beat me to it.
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:

[Vibrant Android Development] kopykatkiller:
Woot! Success!

Thank you guys! You all rock!
[Vibrant Android Development] ryanolson7:
awesome!!

Thanks so much.. this beta rom has been getting on my nerves.... finally gonna be back to stock
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
I just wouldn't want to be stuck with the PRE-release. It really is buggy.
[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
I'm not sure what's different between mine and justanothercrowd but mine appears to be a bit smaller... Not at a computer so is there anyone who can check the difference?
[Vibrant Android Development] daweedk1991:
Can someone tell me how to restore my phone? :(
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
Great work.

Does this require the person to use odin? Or how does it work?

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
No, download clockwork mod and restore the nandroid backup. You should then be back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] kopykatkiller:
This is a nandroid back up, if you flashed koush's beta you must first flash back to the stock recovery.

Then you can restore this via nandroid in the clockworkrecovery and be back at full stock.

Great work guys..
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Some WiFi cache data and superuser.apk. Possibly different compression ratio.
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
Can a mod sticky this please. Thanks

[Vibrant Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
Same problem here, it won't connect to data at all. My sim works just fine in my MyTouch so I've ruled out the phone. T-Mobile said there aren't any known issues with my area either.

[Vibrant Android Development] adklee:
i got the same problem, only my additional problem is my phone doesn't support three-button download mode. is there any way to put this thing into download mode with sdk? right now it says "device not found" i tried pull out battery and as soon as i put it back on that annoying screen comes on.

HELP!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] kurplop:
i was able to get past that doing the following,

pull your battery, hold down volume buttons only, (keep holding them)

drop battery back in, plug usb in, downloading appears, let go of the buttons.

was able to flash with odin that way, but i still have the MBR error. can't get past it!
[Vibrant Android Development] wannagofast:
Thanks OP for providing the Vibrant users with a way to get back to day 1 stock. I just used the three files and Odin'nd me back to stock...cool. Everything seems to being working just fine. Nice to know it's there if I need to flash again someday.

Just a FYI, the only way I could get to DL mode was to turn phone off, pull batt, plug phone into computer, hold vol up and down and put batt back in...worked like a charm. The weird thing is I can get to recovery mode every time I try with the buttons.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mazz35:
A couple of solutions that have worked for me....When you are using odin and it gets stuck on cache.rfs, there is not much you can do at that point, but pull the battery. To prevent it, you have to disable driver signing before you odin.

If you get the black screen and the buttons light up do the (Rom){ODIN} Froyo ~~~That does not Brick! Downgrading Is Fine. Follow the instructions to the T.

After you flash that, then odin the official t-mobile image.
[Vibrant Android Development] xenocid3r:
Hello

so i did the mistake of repartition my vibrant (the second when the screen reboot i understand that i repartition the internal memory - ignorance shot me in the face - should have read the instructions about "not repartition with clockwork - dont flame me...)

i got a black screen after boot (with he four buttons lit).

I read the instructions in the thread couple of times before flashing to stock. the first time i got success on odin, but black screen again.

I tried couple of more time after but nothing happen, so I had to try different USB ports until i got past the fail in odin.

2nd time follow the instruction again nothing happened. Kies is off while odin is running. i actually search the forums for additional solution, but no luck. maybe i just cannot see the right post/thread regarding my problem.

this is the log from odin:

EDIT: fix it. actually while posting it i was on an optional fix - i follow bionix instructions on flashing Eugene's (Rom){ODIN} Froyo ~~~That does not Brick!. and then installing then giving it a stock 2.1. GREAT SUCCESS.

learned my lesson out of it. A. dont do something that you dont know of. B. read instructions very- VERY carefully.

Hi,

I have accidently deleted Sims 3, when I tried to flash the Froyo firmware posted on samfirmware.com for the GT-I9000.

I was able to flash it back to stock Vibrant firmware but Sims 3 does not work I get an ErrorMsg: "Parse Error - There is a problem parsing the package" Even though the Sims 3 icon is there but it gives the above ErrorMsg whenever I click the icon.

Your help will be appreciated, since I have decided to sell this phone I need to get Sims 3 back it, in order t sell it on eBay.

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] Pewp.:
Got the same problem. A little help please?
[Vibrant Android Development] xenocid3r:
well the game is somewhere around 700MB (last time i checked - if im not mistaken) so while you do fix your phone, you lose Sims 3. but hey... im happy with out this game.

btw about the icon. vibrant come stock with Avatar and Sims, so you will probably will see Sims and Vibrant as the icons there. so for example if you had the movie on your external sd card, then you would format the card. Later if you would do factory reset - you still will have the Avatar icon, although the avatar is no more on the SD card.

Sims3 APK

I have the download link for the the sims3.apk, if you guys want it PM me and I'll give it to you.
[Vibrant Android Development] grabiarz:
Restored without any problems. Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] rbirg:
I had an interesting experience today.

A little back story first:

My pops and I got 2 Vibrants. Box is dated 08/27/2010. I tried a million times to boot mine up into recovery. No luck. I ended up exchanging my phone.

Soon as I got mine back I saw the Kies JI5 update, so I immediately updated. I have also tried the recovery methods on this one. All sorts of different things. It was the same box, so I don't really have a date on the box, but I know it's a new phone because my old one wouldn't go past the Vibrant screen no matter what.

So when the OTA was announced, I used the ROM in this thread to get back to JFD(I found out I was still able to use the download method of Vol +/- and plugging the usb cable straight in).

So today, just for gits and shiggles, I tried to get my dad's Vibrant into recovery and it worked flawlessly. I was showing him that I couldn't do it on my phone and all the sudden it worked. I am still a little baffled and confused. Download mode through Vol -/Power will not work, but I am able to get into recovery every single time now.

Could there be different builds of JFD and the one in this thread fixes the issue or am I just retarded?
[Vibrant Android Development] kteemusic:
THANKS

Thanks you saved my ass
[Vibrant Android Development] ipeench:
what if i cant get my phone into download mode?

i hold vol down + power but it just keeps looping on the vibrant screen
[Vibrant Android Development] c0d3m0nk3y:

[Vibrant Android Development] Mazz35:
Did you disable digital driver signing? When I got stuck on the cach.rfs, i had to do that. Then after rebooting the pc, it worked.
[Vibrant Android Development] c0d3m0nk3y:
I'll give that a shot
[Vibrant Android Development] c0d3m0nk3y:
ok so b4 the file analysis went quick, seconds even. It's now been running for > 5 min
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Same here...

Didn't work, now the phone is only showing a picture of a "pic of a phone---caution sign---pic of a PC"

Any thoughts/ideas
[Vibrant Android Development] c0d3m0nk3y:
i got the same issue. u can still get back to download mode the same way, plug in hold vol up & down & pwr. it may take 5-10 secs but it works. rem to let go of the power as soon as it goes black.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Thanks, must have tried 30x's before in went into DL mode... thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Keep trying, sometimes the pc and phone don't communicate as they should.

1. Plug phone in via usb to pc

2. Hold Volume Up + Volume Down

3. While continuing to hold the Volume buttons Press and hold power until the screen goes black then ONLY release Power (continue to hold Volume buttons)

4. Try Odin again until it runs
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Keep trying this

1. Plug phone in via usb to pc (wait for it to show the charging battery)

2. Hold Volume Up + Volume Down

3. While continuing to hold the Volume buttons Press and hold power until the screen goes black then ONLY release Power (continue to hold Volume buttons)

Good luck
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Unplug the phone close Odin and start it again, sometimes out takes several attempts to get it working
[Vibrant Android Development] c0d3m0nk3y:
It WORKED!!!!!

so these are the exact steps i took.

unplug phone & remove battery

restart comp

set Odin3_v1.0.exe to always run as administrator

open Odin3_v1.0.exe

replace battery and plug in, phone turned itself on to download mode

loaded files as instructed ran and it worked
[Vibrant Android Development] c0d3m0nk3y:
correction. the odin app went through fine, said Pass! but it won't boot. i see the vibrant screen get the tmo animation and sound, then the galaxy S animation, then black.

[Vibrant Android Development] silow:
1.) Disable Voodoo.

2.) Download and flash the Stock-Kernel-Vibrant.zip file from the Frankin-Twiz thread.
[Vibrant Android Development] december.underground:
Thank you swilow that exactly what I was talking about, once I load the stock kernel will setcpu still actually over clock my CPU? Do you recommend a different oc kernal?
[Vibrant Android Development] silow:
SetCPU will not overclock if you do not have an overclockable kernel. I recall people having issues with SetCPU on the stock kernel back when the Vibrant first release. I would recommend just removing this app if you aren't going to overclock anyway.

Which version of JAC's kernel did you use? I found version 1.1 unstable on my phone. I've been using the 1.0 kernel with voodoo and overclock widget with success. There have been some discussions that if the min clock is set below 200mhz you may encounter some stability issues.

If you are still set on using an OC kernel you also have the option of trying KingKlick's.
[Vibrant Android Development] december.underground:
I am running Voodoo OC/UV Beta4 CWM Recovery V1.1 ill give v 1. 0 a try as soon as I get home from work. Thanks once again do th help its much appreciated.

I'm getting stuck on 'cache.rfs' with Odin then my screen goes black. Doing this everytime I try it. Any suggestions?
[Vibrant Android Development] Nokternal:
Nvm. The instructions i read were to NOT re-partition. I finally checked it and it went through fine. Back to stock. Lost everything but it's working again anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] DreamcastDC:
You rock man, thanks for the factory roms, flashed with Odin with no problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Had stock 2.1, flashed the update with Odin. Went smooth and is now good to go. Took no more than 4 or 5 minutes. Not sure why some people had driver issues, I've never had to install drivers for Windows 7 64-bit on my PC. It downloaded and installed all drivers automatically.

And big thanks to all who made this an easy process and explained it clearly. Devs here are the best.

EDIT: GPS and compass are perfect now. There is only ONE negative for this update, the Market app seems slower now, though the rest of the phone seems much faster even with all my apps still there.

EDIT2: Nevermind, after first launch (and I made sure to also kill it to make sure it wasn't just because it was in memory), Market app is also much faster now. In general, phone is lightning quick now with no lag. Update is wonderful. Hopefully it stays this quick.

ONE BIG ISSUE: The phone and laptop no longer acknowledge a USB connection between the two in any way. Phone charges but doesn't say it's plugged in to a PC and my PC no longer sees it at all. Odd. Any ideas? I've reinstalled drivers, and nothing.
[Vibrant Android Development] cajunfighter:
im using odin and keep getting to the cache.rfs line and it will just sit there. how long should it take from that line to do something
[Vibrant Android Development] cdill3000:
Ok I did the same exact thing...

Problem # 1 I have NEVER been able to get to DL mode or Recovery without the use of Clockwork or adb

Problem # 2: Now all i see is the "phone--/!\---Computer" graphic on teh screen regardles of what i do....hold buttons in every possible order i have read on here an other 4rms......PC is not recognozing the phone, adb has no devices listed, tried holding buttons plugin it it with odin running,,,nada...:confused::confused:

[Vibrant Android Development] cajunfighter:
okay i was having the same issue and now mines working fine. heres what i did.

pull your battery and leave phone off

restart your computer

re open odin first

without hitting the power key, press and hold the volume rockers

while holding the rockers plug in the usb and you should get into downloader mode

then try to load files

mine is running the factoryfs now so i'll update to let everyone know how it went.
[Vibrant Android Development] cdill3000:
Is your Fone hardware locked? have u ever been able to use the 3 button method before?.... cuz ive read where teh Newer Vibrants come hardware locked to where the 3 button mode deosnt work..and im thinkin i am in that unlucky few....:mad: ill keep trying.....hopefully it wrks.....

Having issues

I'm trying to do this "Odin back to stock" process but I'm having a little trouble. I've got all the files and opened Odin etc. I entered the .pit file and the .tar file. Auto-reboot and f. reset time are checked. I click start and I get "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)"

What am I doing wrong?

Edit: With help from XDA forumers I've got it figured out. Odin wasn't seeing my phone because I didn't have the drivers installed.
[Vibrant Android Development] trunkstar1:
This worked for me to get back to download mode. Thank you!
[Vibrant Android Development] DarkAgent:
Just one simple question: When you say "finally some US love from Samsung Firmwares" do you mean you got this from that Samsung Firmwares website? Or did you pull it off your phone yourself?
[Vibrant Android Development] jtc442:

im having the same issue, loaded the files, but all im getting is succeed 0/failed 0. what do i need to do now. which drivers are you mentioning. please help. my phone will only boot to the s screen, and sticks.

I keep seeing conflicting information regarding nandroid backups if it replaces the kernel or not when you do a restore?
[Vibrant Android Development] CBung:
This is for my own personal memory :)

"to get to download mode, this works every time on my device:

1. turn off phone, pull battery

2. plug phone in to usb that is connected to pc, seems connecting just a charger will not work

3. put battery back in, and wait until you see the green battery icon

4. hold down the vol up and vol down buttons, then press power

5. as soon as the green battery icon disappears, let go of the power button only, should go into dl mode"

6. With odin already open, you may not see the device (com) thing show up when it does show the downloading screen. Just unplug the usb cable and plug it back in, then it showed up in odin.

Start!

Edit: With phone off, I hold both volume buttons and plug into computer and it comes up download mode as well
[Vibrant Android Development] philly0429:
Soo...

So I am super new to android. I rooted my phone no problem and am running launcher pro plus. I dl'ed Metamorph and installed the Kovicon Hybrid Blue theme. I didnt know about needing to make a backup before you do stuff just in case you need to restore. But what I'm gathering from this thread is that I can Odin to "start from scratch". Am I correct in assuming that?

I downloaded all the necessary stuff from the first post but am afraid to run it in fear of bricking my phone. Thank you
[Vibrant Android Development] trunkstar1:
Yep, you can use Odin to "start from scratch."

Btw, go Giants!
[Vibrant Android Development] philly0429:
HELP!!!!!!!!!!

I've only had my phone for about 3 weeks now. I woke up this morning and my phone said "Congrats! You have received an update from T-mobile" to install press next. So I did. It said it would take 10 minutes but it took like 3 and then said update failed! It rebooted and is now stuck on the "Samsung Vibrant" screen and won't boot up any further.

Is this prime time to utilize Odin?

I'm freakin out.

UPDATE: I used Odin and I'm back!!!!! Thanks to all the amazingly knowledgeable people here. Truly top notch! Thanks again.

Weirdness... so I also got the soft-brick after JI6 OTA update tonight. Used ODIN with the JI6 update and I'm back in action with all my settings in place, etc. Only one small problem (?)...

I still have the notification that says the update is ready to install. I checked in settings and it says I'm updated to JI6 (duh, I used that tar file in ODIN). What do I do about this?

Thanks!
