okay i got the "froyo that doesnt brick" and flashed it, got to the stock recovery and it errors like it supposed to. now i cant get it into download mode because the stock recovery mode pops up so quickly... should i keep trying or am i missing something?
[Vibrant Android Development] darksandz93:
damn......hopefully the gps fix that comes out fixes it..
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
Easiest way for me is to unplug the USB cable, pull the battery. Make sure ODIN is running. Now, hold both volume keys, reinsert the battery (you don't have to hit the power button). Then plug in the cable.

Works everytime.
[Vibrant Android Development] techpreneur:
Fyi... if you had disable-lagfix in the voodoo folder make sure you remove it and reboot. It will take longer to boot the first time so don't worry if it takes longer to boot.

[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
Some people have problems, I am not sure if eugene fixed the upside down volume buttons maybe try the other button? If that doesn't work keep trying or try the other method I will list
[Vibrant Android Development] dancegrenade:
This rom seems dope so far! glad to see the battery icon from 1.4 back. Thanks a lot

[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
You listed the method I was also going to post ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
Question. In 1.4 - the first one - I had awesome dimming in dark settings. Now in a black room I am still half blinded by the light of a half black themed Swype. Can we get those real dark settings back for those of us who want to save battery and not squint at the phone?

Sent from fone...
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
One thing you can do is if you get the pay app extended controls it allows you to have "power widget" that lets you click the brightness button and it pops up with a slider to adjust brightness.

I find the normal power widget only lets me go to 12% brightness with the slider and extneded power controls I can go to 0% brightness.
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
Any more luck?
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
ugh now im starting to get nervous... ive tried + vol, - vol, both, and the methods other people are posting... it just doesnt seem to give me time to get into download mode, the recovery system boots even before i press the power button..
[Vibrant Android Development] glensta:
Thank You thank you thank you thank you...... Bionix 1.6 Is awesome...... I'm stoked

Sent from my Bionix phone
[Vibrant Android Development] Postraumatik:
Do this... Turn phone off. Then while holding down the vol up and down buttons (dont worry about the power button), plug the usb cable in... It should go into DL mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
So for reference, after an evening playing with it, I like Zeam Launcher
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
was in the process of doing this JUST as you posted it... didnt seem to work :/ ill try it a couple more times though
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
Don't worry I was in this same spot and you will get it. Try this method...

1. Plug in your phone with it on in recovery/whatever into the computer

2. Pull the battery (as long as your not doing a nandroid, or odin or something)

3. Setup Odin

4. Unplug the phone

5. Hold both up and down on the volume then hit the power (hold all 3)

6. Plug the phone back into the computer

7. Once you see vibrant let go over power but keep holding both volume

8. You should see download mode pop up

If that doesn't work try it again but this time let it flash vibrant then go black and when vibrant flashes the 2nd time let go of the power.
[Vibrant Android Development] Postraumatik:
Dont bother with the power buttons
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
I just noticed that the version of SWYPE in 1.6 no longer has the microphone button. Any chance that will get added back in?
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Currently the version of Swype with Voice input has a fatal flaw, it will be readded when they update.
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
Which of these is everyone flashing?

Download: Bionix 1.6 w/stock kernel

Download: Bionix 1.6 w/Jacs OC/UV kernel

Download: Bionix 1.6 w/Jacs OC/UV/Voodoo

Voodo is out for me for the moment, given that I have the large NAND chip.

Should I go for the stock kernel or the JACS OC/UV kernel? Also, what is the next best lag fix since I cannot use Voodo?

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] wazmoo:
The Music app doesn't work in 1.6...FCs :(
[Vibrant Android Development] ram130:
your so lucky..I usually get 5 and no more while the mytouch slide gets 8 right beside the Vibrant,..anyway gonna try out the gps in 1.6 when I wake..thanks again!
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Me too, I think I'm going to keep it as my default home app. Seems to be much better on the battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
I had a similar occurrence with my phone when switching from OC version to stock Bionix 1.2; I tried Nandroid - restore and tried flashing Bionix 1.2 form Clockwork and no cigar.

Then, a light bulb, I used Odin to reflash to the leaked update (UVJI2) and worked perfect by resetting my phone to stock. Next I flash Bionix stock 1.2 with Clockwork.

So give it a shot and be patient with Odin.

Good Luck.

Message to SomBionix: Love your work, keep up the great work! :)

ODIN was Flawless!! thanks you guyz!!!! im gone!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] rscaramelo:
Can you wake up and finish the new rom? How dare you have a life. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
I saw this ROM right when it came out and it is still beyond me why i didnt flash this in the first place... It looks amazing :) I am currently DLing it. Do i need to wipe data before flashing or does it automatically do it?

EDIT: I went back a few pages and saw he is going to have a new release today.. Should i just wait for that?
[Vibrant Android Development] Pangulo:
If you cam wait then wait. It is awesome.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Any word on what is going to be ncluded in the new version?
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
"Black themed goodness is in the works for this new release. ;) As are some bug fixes, and should run smooooother...yes...like butter. Special butter that is.

And I apologize for the hold up, I really do have OCD and I'm working out EVERY single kink to avoid any FCs."
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
Not sure he will have a changes log until he actual posts the rom. I couldn't wait for the new rom. I wanted to check out his 1.2, play with it get to know it and make sure things worked. When he posts his 1.3 today, I will wait for a few peeps to upgrade to it and report their findings and bugs if any. That shouldn't take long at all...

I have a feeling he is going to base this on the recently leaked JI2 firmware, but not sure on that. lol
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
I am very tempted to do the same..

Sounds good :D
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I can't wait to set my eyes on the "Black themed goodness". That's gonna ROCK!
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
@sombionix, is it possible to add "release dates" next to each of your releases please? example below, changes are in red. Just curious as I have no clue when each rom was released. Thanks for the awesome work.

Is it only me, or does the gmail not work properly?

When I delete or read emails, on my phone it disappears, but I still get the Inbox(x) icon, and when I check it on my computer, all the emails that I have already read, or deleted are still there.
[Vibrant Android Development] DFWGringo:
When I try to do anything in adb shell like applying Lag Fix when is enter the su command on the shell I get a Permission Denied response. Yes, I am rooted and I have flashed the Bionix2.1. Any suggestion?
[Vibrant Android Development] briankao1992:

One thing i noticed about the JI6 modem I get SUCH better signal pick up it's insane. No more dropping to 0 bars for data when I hold my phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I'm using Bionix 1.6 w/Jacs OC/UV kernel, love JACs kernels and the UV (undervoltaged) really helps prolong battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
im still trying your method. im not sure if this is supposed to be happening, but when i boot up when its NOT plugged into the comp, it boots the samsung vibrant, then samsung i9000 (this confused me, i never saw this before...), then the recovery. when its plugged into the comp, it goes straight to recovery (skipping the two boot screens)
[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
holy god disable lag fix took like 15 minutes!! Ive been flashing since g1 through nexus and this was by far the most nerve racking trick ever!! I LOVE THE ELECTRONIC *****!! im sitting there like BREATHE PLEASE SAY SOMETHING!! then that girl comes on and breathes life into my heart again! then i wait again! so ive FINALLY got back into 1.5 after disable voodoo ITS TIME FOR FROYO!

im so glad my oc and voodoo work properly... gettin this phone and reading these boards made me really scepticle as i didnt know which model i would get. unfortunately i cant boot into recovery with hardware but thats minor compared to the alternatives! still never used odin yet but im sure it cant be more rudimentary than adb!

THANKS FOR YOUR WORK SOMBIONIX
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
Inside my house by a window

12 sats

9 locked

35 Feet accuracy

thats with only GPS on and not network.
[Vibrant Android Development] wazmoo:
does the music app work for you all? it force closes on me ever since flashing to 1.6 :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
The GPS is smoking fast...I locked to 8-9/12 Sats in seconds.
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
I'm sorry I must be a bit tired it's been a long day your not supposed to plug it into the computer until it's in download mode. I was trying to get the steps right that worked for me when I did it from memory.

1. Plug in your phone with it on in recovery/whatever into the computer

2. Pull the battery (as long as your not doing a nandroid, or odin or something)

3. Setup Odin

4. Unplug the phone

5. Hold both up and down on the volume then hit the power (hold all 3)

6. Once you see vibrant let go over power but keep holding both volume

7. Plug the phone back into the computer

8. You should see download mode pop up

And try letting go at the vibrant and the the I900 if that doesn't work. You should be able to get into the download mode as long as your vibrant isn't hardware locked.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
hey man, no worries, i again really appreciate your help. ill try this, and i dont believe its hardware locked because ive gotten it into download mode before, and i can use the vol keys in recovery mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] PowSniffer0110:
Umm. What would that fatal flaw be?
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I don't use it, it's a battery hog. Try Meridian from the market, seems to be better on the battery for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] DroidDavi:
im having an issue i was flashing 1.6 with oc and uv though rom manger and it said error flashing aborting so i rebooted my phone and it seems i am either back in 1.4 with everything wiped or in 1.6 how can i tell

im on 1.4 sorry for the post
[Vibrant Android Development] CompConfig:
Sombionix, another great ROM, thank you and all who have helped! I have been running the stock JI6 ROM until this came out and I have to say this is a big improvement. Faster, smoother, cleaner.

No GPS issues here in fact so far my results are better than stock JI6. Outside of the MMS, which you are already on top of all my apps work, I have tried every function I can think of and everything is working well.
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
Srttings > Phone Info

bottom

If you see JI6 at the end your on 1.6.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Menu > Settings > About phone

1.6 says "ECLAIR.UVJI6" under Build number for me. 1.4 just says ECLAIR
[Vibrant Android Development] kangxi:
No problems here. Geez, I wonder what the heck people do to their phones to have all theses random problems. It might some apps you have installed.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
I've noticed this since 1.4. Signal actually rocks and I get 3g in places I never did before and like you said covering the antenna doesn't cause signal dropage like before...

This how the rom should have shipped
[Vibrant Android Development] Goog1e Phone:
You're being fed the wrong info...when you put the battery in, it should go straight into recovery...don't worry, that's a bug and it's suppose to happen. What you have to do is use ADB to reboot the phone. Just ADB reboot while in recovery and your rom will boot right back up. That's when you use ODIN to go back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
Music app works fine for me in a few seconds of testing.
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
He doesn't have ADB/SDK installed :(
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
pardon my noobness, but ADB has to do with SDK or something rather right...? if so, could you point me to the SDK dl link. im sorry, its just been a long, and scary night lol...
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
i can just easily install it right?
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
ADB is part of a tool subset from the SDK package if I understand it correctly.

It's not that hard to install it's really just a download and a unzip or exe install I can't remember. Then just using a few typed commands.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
sweet. sounds promising (hopefully). ill try to find the dl, unless you know/ can point me to the SDK link...?

[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
ok SOOOOO i would reccomend in the OP a lil section for UPGRADING VOOD)O 2 VOODOO... i rebooted and successfully disabled voodoo then DELETED DISABLE-LAGFIX file and selected 1.6 in Rom Manager... when the phone rebooted it instantly went onto enabling voodoo... I PANIC NOW!!

i thought it would enable the lagfix and flash the rom in order and screw me... i knew better than to pull battery unless it took an hour lol... luckily it re-enabled voodoo and skipped the new rom flash! re-reading the first post i gathered that i should UPGRADE in this order

DISABLE VOODOO

Reboot

LEAVE DESABLE FILE IN VOODOO FOLDER

flash new rom

ONLY AFTER NEW ROM BOOTS COMPLETELY REMOVE DISABLE LAG FILE AND REBOOT correct?

just a suggestion/question because i read the op many times over the past few days and this was a rather stressful lesson! ANYWAY THANKS FOR THE HARD WORK AGAIN

maybe just in the "How-to Disable the Voodoo Lagfix:" section make the last step say dont delete disable-lagfix until successful flash of new rom JIC for new vibrant flashers! anyone fallowing me lol... im not complaing just trying to make sure any new users dont make the same mistake i made as i considder myself an experienced flasher ;-)! i remember flashing JAC's "ROSIE" roms when the flip clock flipped on the G1... wow almost two years ago!!
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
You got the order correct there in the end.
[Vibrant Android Development] johnnyh64:
Oh man, the difference between Zeam and Launcher Pro's affects on the battery are astounding! I am seriously getting almost double the battery life out of Zeam. I'm so happy right now with everything...thanks Sombionix for all your contributions to the community. You are a hero to many!
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
I would stay up but I got to be up early tomorrow.

I posted the links that should help and also just follow the ADB guide just got getting SDK/ADB installed.

Once you do all you need to do if use the MSDOS Command Prompt to navigate to your AndroidSDK/tools/ directory and then follow the instructions listed by Bionix to fix the flash with voodoo enabled.

Any quick questions while I am still here? If not good luck and don't freak out your fine it will just be something you need to work on fixing and then you will know what to do from now on.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
uhm the sdk is installing packages. i think i can figure out what to do from here on, if not, ill post back here and hopefully you or someone else can get back to me tomm... thanks again man, really appreciate it...

No idea, I just know whats what I heard. I dont like swype so it really didnt effect me too much, else id have a better answer
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
WAIT A SECOND! i just realized that odin is picking up my phone without it being in download mode... im assuning i cant flash from this mode, or can i...?
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Everyone else got it :)

Absolutely no offense, but natural selection works for a reason.

If you dont understand it, dont flash it. There are two seperate threads on how to install this ROM with Voodoo and its littered all over the forum and XDA/Vibrant for that matter how and why to disable.

It just doesnt get any easier then Bionix ;) Other then staying stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
It's not that hard, sorry you couldn't get into download mode.

Just follow the instructions from Page 1 once you get SDK setup and your samsung drivers installed.

Wish i could have been more help and if you post anything tonight that not responded to by morning I will respond when I get up in about 8 hours.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
you HAVE to be in download mode to flash the memory
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
No experience with that, though i heard you could but it was dangerous. Just something I heard though.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
copy that, thanks for crushing my hopes... hahaha j/k j/k, slight moment of laughter. back to sdk.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
i simply cant believe it, i followed the instructions and rebooted into froyo. you guys are the ABSOLUTE best. the best. hahahahahahaha. okay now i have one more question... can i flash bioniz right over this froyo rom, and use froyo, or do i have to go back to stock 2.1 then flash? id love to use froyo :) lol
[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
I am pretty sure you need to go back to stock. I have no experience with it though so i am just telling you to do so as thats the safe bet.

[Vibrant Android Development] MasterColdSoul:
Sweet for stock, though I think I would at this point only use it when doing stuff in SU terminal as swype is broken (or was?) there.

I am wondering if we will be seeing a google search in black theme? It's in white and it throws me off with the black goodness. Can someone pointed me to the right place to look for the files and maybe a little tutorial on how to edit them so there good to be repackaged back. I would gladly mess with it with the little skills I have.

If not if someone who is better can do this that would be great,
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I actually made one, but I was planning on redoing it.

it just requires pulling apart the touchwiz launcher again, I can pull apart the new one and link to it a little later
