There are numerous differences b/t stock and the MS_Guru one and some of the bloatware being removed is the only positive one I can find. It has lots of problems. (i.e. market missing tons of apps, lots of problems w/ sync constantly running, media scanner running over and over, USB connction to pc is unreliable, ROM rebooting randomly,)

Huge, huge thanks to MS_Guru for getting this (it saved more than a few of us) but I agree with the need for a 100% working stock ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] stillyone:
I Think the guy is asking about shipped rom, the one the guru posted is pre-released, I know there is a difference because I got my phone shipped and there was no T-mobile sync and some software was different. I wouldn't mind getting Original "shipped" rom myself, I have some fc and loss of 3G with guru's image.
[Vibrant Android Development] daweedk1991:
Exactly, I have some of these problems with the rom :(
[Vibrant Android Development] ElahC:
Me too, I just want to Stock T-mobile Rom that the phones were shipped with. MS_guru one is the closes I can find but I do experience some issues such as missing Market apps and my Avatar movie not playing.
[Vibrant Android Development] cliepals:
I having same issue, I bring back to T-mobile store and they exchange a new one for me.

Now I'm happy
[Vibrant Android Development] the3dman:
I am working on an update that will be the ship stock but I need someones nandroid backup before they installed ms_guru (koush's recovery is fine but cant have ms_guru).
[Vibrant Android Development] ElahC:
Good to here! Can't wait for when it's available :D.
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
We need the true flash. Not some hacked up stuff.

It has to be available on the inet? or creatable from our stock phones
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Looking at the CSC files it looks like the release ROM is JFD that may help you track it down
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
From what i have heard about the rom posted here.

Its a pre-release rom. We need the real deal. I cannot believe no one on this forum doesnt know any TMO support guys. To get us a firmware.
[Vibrant Android Development] daweedk1991:
It sucks that captivate users have access to a stock rom but we don't =/
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
Where is the captiva stock rom?

That is the captivate firmware I don't think that will flash on or phones. Anyone have a nandroid backup of their phone using the newest stable clockwork mod recovery?
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
I could make one, but I had already removed a ton of system apps before I flashed the recovery. SO Im not exactly stock. That said I never tired using the beta recovery, so Its all stock kernel, ROM, etc otherwise
[Vibrant Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
Yours is going to be better than anything else we've got. Would you mind posting it?

Running now, Ill post when its completed

Theres no personal stuff backed up is there?

Edit:
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
Had trouble uploading. But it was just a system image anyways. Tomorrow i should have time to wipe and do a full nandroid of a unflashed stock vibrant with all the system apps. Just couldnt go without a phone tonight.

Never been touched by beta recovery or ms_guru firmware

sent from my Samsung Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
We already have two of these. One rooted stock vibrant NANDroid and one unrooted stock NANDroid. Neither touched by gurus or beta recoveries.

What we do need is a radio dump since the pre-relaease radio has issue with the release ROM. No 3G.
[Vibrant Android Development] acjames:
Used the flash from this thread and successfully bricked my phone.....LOL! This is my first time bricking one so Im honored. I'll be at Radio Shack in the a.m. swapping this one out.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
Thats something we can only get from Samsung or Tmobile correct? I cant use DDMS or ADB to pull a Radio Dump?
[Vibrant Android Development] Shagman68:
Why is it that nobody ever gets it when someone says there should be a stock rom available as well? Stock means stock, nothing removed, nothing broken, works like the day I unboxed it stock!?! If it is not in an update.zip format, then it is not what most ppl are looking for. They want a NON-ODIN solution. And if that stock ROM is not STICKIED to the top, most noobs are not gonna search for 5 mins or 2 hours to find it buried under an unrelated looking topic. I'm sure that most ppl think the search feature does not work here as well as google does. So just hold yer tongues on the flaming ppl, I don't care how many times someone asks the same question. It chaps my a$$ more to hear someone lose their temper and start flaming ppl. If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] gnunixguy:
What's wrong with the Nandroid versions? it's a backup of everything you need from a stock phone (in most cases) that you can copy to your sdcard and restore to your phone with nandroid in the new recovery.

Seems fairly simple to me until someone is able to create an update.zip from it.
[Vibrant Android Development] anomalous3:
Mobile Internet doesn't work on the nandroid versions.
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
Yes. wifi doesnt work i hear and a few other things. This is because of the radio and other things.

I think we need to create multiple threads for each item. Too much stuff in one place. I honestly am loosing my mind with it all.
[Vibrant Android Development] couped:
To a few of the last posters. This phone just came out. Don't expect perfection. You should have waited...
[Vibrant Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
We weren't impatient flashers, we were helping to beta test Clockwork Recovery and now we're all stuck on European prerelease software. Maybe you should read up on what's going on before making such comments...
[Vibrant Android Development] couped:
And what do you think happens when you beta test?
[Vibrant Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
Why are you in this thread? Get out of here with that attitude, you're not helping anything. We beta tested it so other people could have a working modded recovery. Unfortunately, since there's not a full stock ROM (including radio) to flash to, we're stuck on a prerelease. So, we're just trying to work TOGETHER to get something working. I've already called up T-Mobile and they're sending me a replacement I'm just trying to help others with the same issue that haven't or can't swap theirs out.

Edit to add that it looks like someone has a copy of the firmware, hopefully coming this week: http://samsung-firmware.webs.com/apps/blog/entries/show/4360690-coming-soon-vibrant-captivate

That's the site that has all the European versions of the software so I'd venture to guess that they're telling the truth.
[Vibrant Android Development] Greenarcher707:
@wpbcubsfan - that's great news about that upcoming firmware release.
[Vibrant Android Development] couped:
I am in the same boat as you all, but what did you expect? Someone will release it, we just have to wait. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
If you go into the ATT captivate section on here. The link the STOCK firmware is posted. No news.
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
Hey,

I think i found a real flash for our phones. Anyone on europe? willing to test?

While checking droiddog and watching the cyanogen 6 for the evo video and he used a widget called render fx, do we have a widget like this or is it possible for someone to port it?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Russss:
its included in the Cyanogenmod 6.0.0 RC0 rom

The spare parts app has always had this option. Although, why would you even use it?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdotcarlisle:
i know hurts my eyes looking at it. supposed to give excellent battery life though.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shabbypenguin:
no it does not, i ran a test (its in the general section) because of the "render" it slows your phone down considerably and wastes cpu cycles ergo negating any battery life you would have saved (if you had an oled screen), but since we have an lcd screen EVERY pixel is lit up regardless if its in use or not. i had 29 hours with almost no use, people on here get longer then that with a bit of use...

TL: DR slows your phone down, does make it look cool if your into that, but it doesnt save battery from what ive seen
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moosc:
I would love this app and I dont care if it kills my battery. The green is nice for using screen at night. Better then white screen at night. So do we have a answer where can we get it? Running droidX.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poashll:
If you are using CM6, it is in Settings > Cyan Settings > Render effect.

You can also add a render fx widget to your home screen. Add it like any other widget.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moosc:
Cm6 is not supported on droidX. I do have and use it on my original Droid. And im looking for this or something like it.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c00ller:
You're right. The whole idea of showing only one color exploits the technology of OLED and its ability to only light up pixels on demand. LCD works by having the entire backlight always on, with polarizers selectively attenuating the light appropriately for each pixel. That's why LCD cannot achieve true black like OLED, and that's why OLED contrast ratio tests destroy LCD.

Since our Hero has the latter technology, this has absolutely no positive effects for us. Don't use it unless you like less colors.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stalte:
So I have torn apart most of cyanogenmod's roms and settings trying to find this. So if anyone has it please upload that would be awesome :)

Incoming callers and my own outgoing calls can't hear me and i can't

Anyway would love a widget with this function.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AspenTree:
If you're running CM7 then its settings > cyanogenmod settings > interface > render effect

I don't know exactly what rom the OP is running so I just posted directions to it in CM7 ;)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmaloney:
That was NOT the question. The question was is it possible to do WITHOUT running CyanogenMod.

Oh well then the answer is in the previous post before my last one. Sorry about that.

i really dont like google maps for android.. they really add alot of stuff i dont need. and now theyre adding in ads? is there a way i can hide these ads?

i just thought, would installing a previous version of google maps do the trick, before google became a sellout?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EddiJoJo:
Ehm, google lives of advertising. I cant believe anyone didnt see this coming...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] soraxd:
google maps was made to be an incentive to boost android, by welcoming smartphone users with lots of amazing free services, its one of the best things about google, and now its just an ad campaign.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rawat:
Well, it is free, and I've never noticed the ads, so they're not obtrusive. I don't see what the issue is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FrezoreR:
hehe yeah.. goole puts advertisement all over the place ^^ that is their main income.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] INeedYourHelp:
that's why adfree is the best app ever!

(of course you should still pay for apps instead of blocking the ads in the free versions)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] memphisraynz:
Im sorry, but this has nothing to do with Development.

Please read the READ ME thread and post this sort of stuff under General
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] AdhvanIt:
This issue does not seem to be ROM specific, rather an issue with the app. It seems to be killing the clock app even when set to always keep alive.

Now.. normally, I would uninstall an app that was causing an issue like this, but without it, (regardless of ROM or launcher that is being user-stock, adw, launcher pro, helix, etc.) The launcher becomes so slow that its unusable.

No other memory management app has given the same results and still allowed me to keep the clock as a background app or running process. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hello try Diamond Tweak. It offers you some posibilities to increase volume via settings. Not all of them survive a soft reset btw.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
You have to either: 1). flash a stock ROM to restore the splash screen. OR 2). Follow my instructions on how to create your own custom splash screen.:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] smithisize:
Is there any other way? Obviously Core worked his into his rom. Can I like inject one into nrg'z rom?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
Like I said, you have to make your own and flash the splash screen (only) or flash a stock ROM.

If you want I could make you a splash screen. Just tell me if you want the stock splash (mention your carrier & possibly a link to the picture of the splash) or any other image you want.

I could probably make you a WWE black Touch Pro2 splash. I don't know how the Tilt2 splash screen is like -- unless you link the image.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] smithisize:
I want an awesome energy rom themed splash, but I suck at gfx and I don't see one around on the net.

Do you do gfx?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
I would plainly say "no", but I honestly have no freakin' clue what "gfx" is!:p

If you ever come across an image, or even find a wallpaper thread, where you can request an image (yes, some people actually take time to make people wallpapers!), I can turn that into a splash screen.:) --Just as long as the image is close to 480x800 pixels.

EDIT: I see some interesting wallpapers on google (here's my search). This, in particular, caught my eye. Oh, and there's this thread filled with EnergyROM-themed wallpapers. Just hit me up when you find something you like!:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] smithisize:
lol sorry about that, gfx= graphics design, basically lol. And I think I found one that I like, but I want to try and find someone to trick it out for me first, then I'll hit you up :D

Thanks a lot man!

[APP] Ubuntu Loader v1.0 for HD2

This app will load Ubuntu before WindowsMobile boots up (into the screen) but it has more features too

For starters you can load Ubuntu easily once you are already using Windows. It comes with a cool looking icon so you can add it to Sense or Mobile Shell or whatever you use as your day to day interface.

On installation you can also set the Ubuntu Loader to ask you what you want to do as soon as WindowsMobile boots up. If you select 'yes' then everytime Windows boots up you can choose between loading Ubuntu or carrying on into Windows. If my Android loader is detected with the Startup option set then this will be disabled for Ubuntu.

You will also be asked on installation to select the folder where your Ubuntu files are (no typing needed). This is mainly to get round the problem of different language Roms but its also useful if Ubuntu is put in a different folder

Another NEW feature is a Windows Link (with icon) that will Soft Reset your phone and then load straight into Ubuntu without any prompts. This is for people who want to load Ubuntu after Windows has been running for a while, but want to reset the phone before loading it.

DONT ASK IN THIS THREAD ABOUT QUESTIONS OR PROBLEMS WITH UBUNTU. THIS IS TO BE KEPT JUST ABOUT THE UBUNTU LOADER.

--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------

Useage:

1. Make sure you have the Ubuntu files copied to your Storage Card already.

2. Install the cab to DEVICE Memory.

3. You will now be asked if you want a prompt everytime you start WindowsMobile to run Ubuntu or continue to Windows. If you select No you wont get this.

4. You will now be asked which Ubuntu links you want displayed in the Start Menu (Ubuntu, Ubuntu with Soft Reset or Both).

5. You will now be asked select the folder where your Ubuntu build is copied to. You only have to do this once, it will remember the settings until you uninstall the program.

--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------

If you enjoy using this program or anything else I do please consider making a donation. Even if its just a small amount it gives me satisfaction and enthusiasm to carry on developing and appreciation of my work is very welcome.

Enjoy

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] heuteabendwo:
i read some tipps and they suggest, android should be started within 30s after WM-Starting. Otherwise it is not stable and there are some other bugs.

With your app...for example after 10 mins with WM, I start Android.

Will android start normally without any bug?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] stratplayer:
I read the same thing, but I am not sure what substance there is to it.

Needless to say both bootloader programs prompt you to choose at the start after powering on the device so I would tend to beleive you need to.

Simple answer to this dilema though is to run the shortcut as soon as Windows loads, infact I've read some people turn off HTC Sense so it loads up quicker when starting and then select to load Android... not tried myself, but sounds like a reasonable idea!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mskip:
That bug has been fixed by cotulla with the latest zimage file. The problem you are referring to is known as Turbo Mode which means the clock runs faster when starting Android after Windows has been running too long but like I said thats fixed now. You can now leave Windows Mobile running all day if you wanted and there wouldnt be any problem when loading Android.

The Desire version is for any Android port that is in the ROOT of the Storage Card. The Froyo version is for any port which is in the Android Folder in the ROOT of the storage card. You can install both and run either if you have both versions on your Storage Card.
