I know this rom is probably older than dirt to most, but its still the what I use as my baseline when building custom roms.

With that in mind, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me figure out a way to fix the last two bugs I have not been able to workout.

1) Facebook sync (i have all but given up hope.)

2) Getting the stock _in call_ dialer to work. it looks really strange when the dialer changes theme.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
[Vibrant Android Development] angel7501@live.com:
Does anyone know if it works...

I know that this question is stupid but since im not the only one here with the doubt, here i go

Does this ROM work on i9000? I've heard people saying on posts that it does since they're all the same but I'm too scared to try!!! :(
[Vibrant Android Development] WilliamStern:
Odd... I can't seem to add my syncs for Facebook, and I'm missing twitter? Anyone else with this issue?
[Vibrant Android Development] kizer:
Gps Status works pretty well.
[Vibrant Android Development] drhonk:
Curious .. I have RyanZA lag fix, should I remove this lag fix first before flash?
[Vibrant Android Development] defconoi:
Thanks, yea that works
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
I had Mod the Phone apps so they didn't FC... Update from contacts...

These are not installed... It's not a bug.. / is ///// Go to settings & sync..

It's all stock so TOuchwiz app are not going to work..
[Vibrant Android Development] flipper2006:
For Ringtones? Really, i didnt think it did that. But im new to all this with Android.
[Vibrant Android Development] the3dman:
Works very well for me! Love it. Thank You Eugene.

Question though... Any reason why the Service codes for Gps Settings, and Power Button Settings don't work anymore?
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
And how would i go about getting swype on this?
[Vibrant Android Development] WilliamStern:
Ah, I see...

Last noob question than... What would be the best way for me to go about adding, let's say facebook, and twitter contact images into my "phone" contacts?
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
they are not supported not... it's more stock than it is Touchwiz now... GPS is cfg from the gps.cfg in the etc folder...
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Whoops, misread post
[Vibrant Android Development] 98classic:
download the photo, edit contact and add photo
[Vibrant Android Development] Hachi88:
Pull the swype.apk from the vibrant 9

put the swype.apk in the C drive

then use adb to push it

adb push c:\swype.apk /system/app

this is how I do it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Chididdy123:
Hmm anybody have disappearing app launcher?

When i turn my phone sideways (to get into landscape mode) it dissappears.

So I opened the app launcher in portrait, then turned to landscape, and app launcher disappears and im back at home screen

Oh btw Eugene ill have a video preview of Vibrant Hybrid by tomorrow. Imma upload it tonight, and it should be live by tomorrow
[Vibrant Android Development] rwbarnes67:
FROM THE ANDROID MARKET!!!!!!

Download Facebook and Twitter or Twitdroyd! They have the options in settings to add contact images to your contacts!!!!!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
i do not know hwo to do either of those things.. So i guess ill just stick with Vibrant9
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
How to install/flash.

Do I copy to root and use ClockworkMod to install?

Sorry for the dumb question.
[Vibrant Android Development] flipper2006:
I never really useed the Swpe KB, but I did use the HTC keyboard, im having trouble typing on this one . Do I follow the same procedure and adb to /system/app ?? What is the filename or it obvious?
[Vibrant Android Development] rwbarnes67:
Um.... Download Swype from the Android Market????
[Vibrant Android Development] WilliamStern:
What's with the yelling boss?
[Vibrant Android Development] flipper2006:
One more question, earlier this afternoon, in the other thread for Vib9, a zip file was created to allow for high speed tmobile. No other comments were seen, did this work, will it work with this build?
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
Best rom yet! It's so quick makes me wonder if the lag fix is even worth it. Has anybody with the lag fix noticed a difference at all beside the high quadrant scores?
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
Much easier than that, you can buy Root Explorer from the market, go into the vibrant 6 or 7 .zip, extract the swype.apk file, then copy it from the "extracted" file on the SD to the main system/apps file.
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
Do NOT rename the file - download and copy to the internal (main/14GB) SD card. Then use Rom Manager to reboot into recovery, select the options to install .zip from sd card, select .zip (vibrant_hybrid), select "yes" to install, and when it's finished "go back" then "reboot system now". Pretty self-explanatory when you get going.

And of course, you should make a nandroid first and you are responsible for whatever you do.
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
kinda a noob question. If i wanted to remove all the left over app and misc stuff collected on the internal SD card is is best to manually go through and delete folders or do something like SD partition through Odin? I was just wondering because I would like to do a truly clean install of the vibrant hybrid rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
So all i have to do is get root explorer, find the apk, save it to my sd then install it like a normal apk once i flash the hybrid?
[Vibrant Android Development] Andrmgic:
Will try this again when you have the stock contacts app on there..

Keep up the good work!
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Wait, sorry...must have misread your post. You have duplicate ringtones? If so, you may have a /audio/media folder on your sd card, which are counted as ringtones as well. Also make sure you dont have 2 versions of the same ringtone, possibly in different formats (mp3, ogg)
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
Okay, so the "Contacts" tab in the Dialer is like "one of these things is not like the others," but what other bugs have people found?

So far I'm very impressed with the snappiness - guess it was effective the way Eugene stripped everything down.

The "bar" bug on the calendar does bother the hell out of me, but I'm basically avoiding it by using the Jorte calendar app from the market - haven't used it a whole ton, so not sure it will end up being a worthy substitute.
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
That should work. I use root manager; I backed up swype and then just restored it after I re-installed root manager.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Can i back it up using titanium?
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
No, you don't have to install it - when you go into Root Explorer, go into one of the .zip's you should have from the older roms, and in there find the swype.apk in the system/app folder. Long press it, click "extract", and then hit the back button until you get back out to the main internal SD. You should have a folder that says "extracted" under "sdcard" - go in there, find swype.apk and LP and click "move", back out to the main then click system, then app - you will see just a long list of .apk's with green android icons. You should have a button on your screen that says "move" (I think - it will make sense), click that and it will place the swype.apk in the folder. It should work right away, w/out rebooting.

Hope that's clear enough, or that someone can make it clearer! I just did it, but I'm going from memory not actually walking through it right now.
[Vibrant Android Development] p()()pypants:
Possible bug

Or guessing it was a touchwiz only feature..... no puzzle piece exists to slide into puzzle slot upon recieving a text.

1. Bug

2. Tw only (thus removed for prevention of FC)

3. Stock mms only

Could you let us know Eugene?
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
root manager has a backup function. I'm not sure about using titanium. I haven't used it due to previous issues with it, but I believe if you just back up and restore apps there are no issues. You can always go into the vibrant 9 zip and pull swype out as well. Its really pretty straight forward I'm sure you could figure it out just clicking around.
[Vibrant Android Development] flipper2006:
Arrrrrhhh. been loving this Rom, but ran into problem with LCD Density Changer on the phone screen. It worked correctly in Vib4,5,6,7,9 but not anymore , its all squinched together.. It's been fun, but gotta get to bed. Till tommorow night...
[Vibrant Android Development] agarza11:
I neeeeed helpppp!! I cant download why??
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Alright.. So i found swype in vibrant9, all i have to do is drag it onto my sd onces i flash the hybrid?
[Vibrant Android Development] shep211:
Great job on the rom. Thank you for sharing.
[Vibrant Android Development] p()()pypants:
Looks like number 3 pushed back stock mms, puzzle piece returned
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Anyone? I want to flash this before i go to bed :(
[Vibrant Android Development] mesajoejoe:
search, and read. then you will have the pleasure of knowing you did it yourself
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Its a yes or no question.
[Vibrant Android Development] shep211:
Yes then install with astro file manager.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
thanks.. even though you can just use the normal file manager :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
save the swype.apk flash the rom and use some program with su permissions like root explorer to either install or drag into system/apps. Search for post in the main vibrant 9 thread about how to do it as well if your still confused. I bought root manager backed up my apps in the /system folder, installed the new rom, installed root manager, and then restored swype. It really can't get any easier. This is my first android phone so I'm still learning as well. I highly recommend playing around with odin and adb as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Thanks.. I have tried for hours on end to get adb working.. I cant find a good tutorial on it. I have a mac btw.
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
This is probably related to not being able to add a facebook account through the accounts and sync setting. When I go to contacts and click on the update tab it says log into a sns account so I click facebook and I get a FC "The process android.process.acore has stopped"

Meh never really like facebook in my contacts that much anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] cazper210:
Nice rom everything working tip top cant thank you enough got no problem i push all my apps i lost from 6 to the hynrid everything works perfect my swype, mytouch music and myfiles i liek it better than linda but again thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
kinda off topic from the rom but check out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=502010 for an adb guide pulled from the G1 forum.
[Vibrant Android Development] In Absentia:
While in the SDK tools folder, try typing ./adb.
[Vibrant Android Development] ThaBoyC:
2464 on quad (:

I'd say best rom yet, thanks for all of the hard work!!
[Vibrant Android Development] kennyp987:
When in contacts and you click menu>display options... it always says says sim initializing.... :-(
[Vibrant Android Development] ryan562:
i'm experiencing the same exact problem! however, still a great rom so far. :cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] kiapolo:
Went from vibrant7 to this ROM...amazing...can't thank you enough!
[Vibrant Android Development] pgibbons:
Anyone have problems restoring a Nandroid backup of the Vibrant Hybrid? I used Rom Manager to backup the Vibrant Hybrid at various stages of installing back apps so I could restore to the Vibrant Hybrid with the last working apps in case a mod broke something. I made 2 backups so far but neither one worked when I tried to do a restore. One froze during the file copy back and the 2nd one copied everything back but after the reboot, once I swiped the unlock screen it was stuck on continuous FC message boxes.
[Vibrant Android Development] Trev420:
Okay sorry for a nooby question.

Ive flashed other stuff before but nothing this major. Im assuming it deletes all apps(which is okay, I wanna re download only the stuff I can remember(which are the apps I use most)) but what about contacts?

Ive never messed with adb and stuff and prolly won't install the lag fix. Is the lag fix nessasary? I use ryanza fix right now, will i notice a decrease in snappiness and speed?
[Vibrant Android Development] ransome7:
Same problem here , loads fine by itself , but when I restore data using nandroid it locks up on rebooting ( 4 times so far)
[Vibrant Android Development] nanim0n:
hows this rom comparable to vibrant9 ?.. i jus installed the 9 couple hours ago.. and now i see this.. but i dont know if i should flash this one or not.
[Vibrant Android Development] Goog1e Phone:
Same problem over here too with the Sim Initializing. Also, if I wanted the old stock Dialer, can I just adb push from one of the older Vibrant roms?

Thanks for the awesome work Eugene. I hope facebook contacts and syncing can be fixed in the next build. =)
[Vibrant Android Development] mmalott:
This one is more vanilla then Vibrant9 from a user standpoint. Don't know exactly what he did behind the scenes but this rom is more of a basic Android build. Personally I like this one better.
[Vibrant Android Development] Docavelli:
Yes you can. Or you can use your file manager to copy/paste it to /system/app.
[Vibrant Android Development] All~G1:
No, once you have Root Explorer:

Go to the Vibrant9 folder on your phone and find Swype.apk

"hold" the .apk file

Extract

It will say "File saved to SDcard/extracted"

Find the path to /sdcard/extracted

Go to the swype.apk in /sdcard/extracted

"hold" the file

Copy

Go to /system/app

Paste.

From there it is now in your input method.

Zoo-kid, im not picking on you, but just to let you know, you'd be doing yourself a BIG favor by trying just a little harder. Trust me, I used to be just like you when I started on the G1. Now that I know more its 10x more enjoyable to be flash happy. You'll truly get to enjoy what these devs do!
[Vibrant Android Development] nanim0n:
all i need is my contacts from my sim and im straight.. someone helppp
[Vibrant Android Development] Legaleye3000:
Just wondering... What's the difference between THIS and Vibrant9? Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] flipper2006:
Now this is entirely possible if it was carried over from older vibrant versions. I started with a blank folder before working with this phone, but i also noticed that with the original comment of making sure only the phone was set to show (which i know was the wrong answer), but i found a problem there where if you click on settings from the PHONE then Contacts screen, then MENU, it says "Sim initializating..." and Ok. (it's been like that for hours and thru several reboots) . Normally this screen would have the choices for SIM, Twitter etc.. to disable which one you dont want to have in in the phone list. It worked for Vibrant9 correctly.
[Vibrant Android Development] nanim0n:
geah everything was fine in vib9 but this ones cooler
[Vibrant Android Development] mmalott:
Less Touchwiz in this one and seems to be just a bit smoother/faster. Personally I like this one better.

Only problem I'm having with this one is the calendar or lack of calendar. There's a corporate calendar icon which makes you enter domain server info. Am I missing something or do I go ahead and enter the info for my gmail?
[Vibrant Android Development] allareconnected:
Same here, thanks Eugene!
[Vibrant Android Development] ambrishptl:
Hey Guys! This is my first android powered device and loving it... im kinda retarded when it comes to all this flashing and programming stuff.. but ever since i started following this thread and Eugene373 i've been staying up all night trying to figure things out with the vibrant (AND LOVING IT!!)...

I've installed vHybrid.. I believe installed the OC4 Kernel and applied the lagfix as well... i'm getting a Quadrant Score of: 2485

But when I was applying the lagfix it told me that it couldn't find /data/data1 or something like that.. it did go ahead and reboot though (thats the first time i ever used adb shell)... is there away to check that whatever i did was the right thing??? I know its giving me a high quadrant score and the phone runs smooth as well... but i just want to check if whatever i did was right... Thanks

Other than that the Hybrid runs great!!
[Vibrant Android Development] junkdruggler:
nice first post

this is a great first post... you stayed up all night learning, flashed a custom rom and Kernel... installed the lagfix and even know how to use ADB... you get a round of applause.. (no sarcasm)

just goes to show that if you read and follow directions this isnt that hard... If you are getting quadrant numbers that high then everything took and is working...
[Vibrant Android Development] jlaval:
Can someone pls list the apps that wont work if pushed to the phone? I know its the tw apps but then again...

Also, any way to get a few small icons.in.the.very bottom of the laumcher as in v9?

Thx
[Vibrant Android Development] Hachi88:
There is two calendar apps. One is corporate calendar, and there's another one called Calendar. You just have to look for it, it's there. I deleted the corporate calendar coz I don't use it :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Hachi88:
If you type in mkdir /data/data1 and it tells you the file already exist, it is normal. I asked Enguene before and he told me it's normal, so you are fine :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Arcadia310:
Installed the ROM last night, so far can't say it's TOO much faster than the Stock ROM OC'd @ 1.2Ghz. Maybe once JAC releases his new Kernel with Overclock and appropriate lagfix I can see this thing fly.

I just installed ADW.Launcher over the default one. Going to see if I can remove the default launcher.
[Vibrant Android Development] kassy_ok:
will the mms.apk from vibrant9 work on this one if i push it ?

EDIT: worked perfect !
[Vibrant Android Development] junkdruggler:
lockscreen bug?

I dont get a puzzle piece on the lock screen when I get a text... dont know if this is a known bug...

works for missed calls... but not text
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
Should work if you push back the TWmms - somebody posted about this a few pages back, but haven't yet tried it myself.

Hey all, I am new to the forum and the android OS, but have some knowledge of unlocking etc (I unlocked my iPhone)... I don't want to unlock my phone but all I want to do it wipe it and start fresh with a stock OS etc. I want to be able to send it in for warranty if needed, so my question is, can I somehow get past this pattern lockout myself? Or do I need to send the phone in and get a new one. As it stands, my replacement phone won't be here till NEXT weds (9.8.10) and that is just toooo long. Any noob help is appreciated!

FYI: I did some research already and d/l'd the Android SDK and JavaSE etc. But dont know where to go from there.

Thanks again!

Hey guys looking to help my cousin with rooting her mytouch 3g to have wireless tethering. Jsut wanted to see if android-wifi-tether apk works fine with root access?

Tethering is all thats needed, no need for recovery or anything else. So i figure the androot way is the way to go.

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
You have to flash a custom recovery to root so you'll get that either way. Couldn't personally comment on wifi tethering as I haven't used it.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] n8huntsman:
What do you guys think about this idea? If you're interested in seeing this app get made, vote on it here;

http://www.mobileappmatch.com/post/2010/09/02/Best-Deals-Around-Geolocation-App.aspx?fbid=s1HDku7t5aa

Or if there is anyone with this kind of skill feel free to steal my idea. It would be awesome if google or someone could integrate this into google maps.
[EVO 4G General] ricomilion:
Hi, i dont know if you guys notice it already, but the evo has a latency on the screen response.

For exp., if you play a instrument on it like drum or piano, the sound will delay after we touch the screen, so it makes it impossible to play music on it.

I would like to know if is there any way we can set the screen response latency. My evo is V2 with froyo2.2 non rooted.

Thanks.

In compare to the iphone, the iphone has almost 0 lantency.
[EVO 4G General] elementur:
Have you tried a different kernal? I went from the stock HTC kernal to Netarchy's kernal and everything was greatly improved when it came to screen response (and many other things as well).

Edit: Just noticed that you weren't rooted. I would suggest rooting your phone and THEN flashing a different kernal. The trouble of the rooting process is well worth it in the end.
[EVO 4G General] nukedukem:
If you root and flash a kernel with a fps fix such as netarchy you can ditch the input lag. The fix for 60 fps essentially doubles the refresh rate of the screen giving you better touch response and at the same time allows the evo to display more frames per second.
[EVO 4G General] ricomilion:
Thanks.

Now I have to find out a way to root my EVO over SD card, cause the usb port just broke.

Is there any way to root it with SD card?(froyo 2.2)
[EVO 4G General] Pao23:
Wouldn't that mean you can't charge your phone anymore? I'd say you have about 8 hours to get rooted, find your rom of choice, pick a kernal, and a theme if you're really adventurous.

After that, it's going to look like a black rectangle.
[EVO 4G General] Philosuffer:
You should be able to accomplish it using these two apps from the market.

adbWireless (for adb) and WebSharing or AwesomeDrop (for transferring files onto your SDcard wirelessly)
[EVO 4G General] ricomilion:
Lol. I have my tp2 wich use the same battery type, and I switch batteries every time.

I know, i know, is a pns. But I don't have money for a new one.
[EVO 4G General] apristel:
Wouldnt it be smarter to bring your evo into sprint prior to rooting and get that usb port fixed? They might do it under warranty!
