I know, right... I'm the last person on earth using a smart phone for voice calls...

I am noticing with the JI6 modem most of my battery consumption is for voice calls. I'm down to 31% right now after taking it off the charger this morning. I was running JI2 before moving to Bionix 1.5 and the battery was surviving much better then. Anyone else having voice call battery drain problems with JI6?
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Well, im testing it out and if its as good as you say it is maybe we can switch, I know personally I like the samsung parts and peices but Im not against completely moving away from either. Time will tell :)

Downloading it now, ill test it out and see if it works faster/better and depending on the results, it can always be skinned.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
He did release an update, but it's not the complete rewrite. The current version is based on the stock launcher; the new one is to be independent of that and should provide for more features and better performance.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
+1 Glad to see I'm not the only one keeping up with this nice home app. I sure hope he fixes the battery life issues.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
@sombionix, @Viralblack How difficult would it be to change the TouchWiz home app to make it change modes when the phone changes orientation? I figure it can't be too hard if almost all home replacement apps can do it. Is this something we users can do or would it involve extra coding?
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
+1 - I use Launcher2, which I pulled from one of Eugene's Roms, and I generally get excellent battery life. It's extremely stripped down - just the grid button to launch the drawer, and the drawer is the 3D one. That's it - no options (but orientation option in menu>settings works), no widgets, 5 home screens and that's it. I value the speed and stability much more than the bells and whistles.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
I noticed with LauncherPro, that as long as I have the widgets (Facebook, Twitter, ect.) set to manually update, I don't see a huge battery drain. It only takes a second for it to update when you want it to.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
I haven't tried it yet, how good is it?

Sent from the iPhone killer, G2 killer, or any other phone that tries me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Its possible it exists in the code, I can take a look into the code.

But again, it would be good to go in one direction more than another. TouchWiz vs ZeamLauncher?
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
It has more options than the TW home app but not as many as LP or ADW. It has a options for dock background, number of dock icons, number of home screens, hide icon labels, action bindings. It's free in the market, you should try it.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
If TW could change orientation I wouldn't need any other home app. But that's just me. But you have a good point about direction.
[Vibrant Android Development] speed145a:
I was feeling similar as far as voice call battery drain. I was thinking that it was just because everything else was using so little power that proportionally voice calls was a higher number.

I have totally noticed a much better signal and data throughput with this newer modem, but I haven't tried any between JI6 and JFD
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
I wish zeam would have the option to do 5 rows instead of 4. Gonna try it out anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
The biggest problem I am having with version 1.5 is that the phone process force closes at the end of all voice calls. When this happens the time in the notification bar also stops updating until I reboot the phone. Hoping that the new build coming out will not have this issue.

Other than that it has been great.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Yours is an issue I havent yet run across in the thread and/or personally seen.

The flashing process can lead to errors in the information and code that cause forcecloses. Its always good after you find an issue to reflash the package to ensure that its not a flashig issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Ahh jezz Zeam is so awesome, hopefully in the near future they get 5 rows, instead of 4 Went back to adw, it's fine not a big of battery drain as LP.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
The main Zeam page is here, I'm sure they would welcome feature requests.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Yeah...one of the biggest reasons I use adw is for the 5x5 grid setup I am using now. Works great for getting all my widgets and icons on one or two pages. I haven't noticed a huge loss in battery life but than again I have only used tw for about a week total when I first got my phone. I really like the fact that adw allows for custom icons as well without the need for yet another program. If tw had those options I probably wouldn't feel the need to use a different launcher. I like the sleek lines of the other launchers, but I guess tw can be skinned?
[Vibrant Android Development] CLopez92868:
Apps Missing?!

Running 1.5 and I have to say it's a great rom. I have noticed rare freezing of the phone, nothing a reboot can't fix.

My other issue though, I have noticed that I am missing paid apps in the market download. All the other versions of this rom would not cause this.

When I go to the download tab in the Market, I notice that the purchased ESPN Fantasy Football app is no longer displayed. I have even used 'search' to locate the app without any success. It will not find the app no matter what.

Anybody else with this issue that can help?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
First, this is an overclocked rom, you need to be sure your min. clock speed is set to 200mhz. That's probably what's causing your freezes.

Second, the missing market apps are due to the build.prop displaying as JI6. This problem is fixed in 1.6 coming soon.
[Vibrant Android Development] CLopez92868:
I have read about the 200mhz minimum before. I always have it set at that minimum speed. Could it be because I don't have profiles set?

Regarding the missing apps, thanks for the response. For a moment I thought the world was going to come to an end, guess not.
[Vibrant Android Development] techpreneur:
I had the same problem with the phone FC.
[Vibrant Android Development] paradox4286:
Agreed, I really like it also
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
I have no problem with 4 colums and Rows, beside you can add up to 7 screens.

I like the fact that you can add as many apps on the dock which scrolls from left to right.

Also what is cool is you can asign Action bindings which allow you to swype on the screen with a selected action.

Like Ardchoille mentioned, people can make request and maybe he can apply the changes.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Im not saying it doesnt exist, but this was the first ive heard of it and not something I can reproduce on either of my vibrants. If you post a crash report I can tell you more.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Whats the news on 1.6? :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Oh yeah, I forgot, I love the ability on ADW to set an up swipe to return home, and down swipe to pull down the notification bar. I hate trying to grab the bar and pull it down...for some reason half the time I can't get it the first time.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
The recommended settings for SetCPU on the Vibrant are min 200MHz/max 1200MHz, no profiles and conservative scaling.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
My, you are an impetuous one, aren't you? :D

[Vibrant Android Development] :

[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Honestly, it's hard for me to tell the difference. It's hardly necessary, especially on a phone like this. You have Voodoo, which a lot of people are satisfied with. I can't use it yet...waiting for the next version to hit.

As for me, I do it because it fun to try things out and see how they do. :)

[Vibrant Android Development] Keslynn:
I had the same problem in an earlier version of Bionix (1.3 I think). It seemed to be because I had the option checked in Call Settings to tone at the end of the phone call. As soon as I unchecked it, there were no more FC problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Ok everyone, I get off work in 5 minutes. Going home, going to the gym, then adding the last touches. EVERYTHING is officially fixed as of now. 1.6 will be up later tonight. :)

I have the same problem with ADW, when I pay attention I get it to work, but i need it to work ALL the time. Does LP really use battery more ? Im using LCD density changer and Now (since 1.8) it supports as many rows as needed. LCD density changer is great, default is 240 but I use with 165 and it's got so much on the screen.

I seem to remember seeing something to the effect that it can cause problems with waking up the phone after the screen goes dark, but as to why exactly this happens I don't know.
[Vibrant Android Development] one4house:
Be sure that you kill any extension added to the disable_lagfix file. If it has an extension to it, it will not work.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougefresh91:
Ah, ok thanks. I disabled it and rebooted so hopefully that helps because my phone was being very laggy with even the simplest of actions. It had been great up until the past few days so idk what's going on.
[Vibrant Android Development] PepeLasNoches:
Make sure to check in adb if you can, I just disabled mine and it worked from the first go.
[Vibrant Android Development] one4house:
Orells, you will also know if you have done it right because of your phone talking to you on reboot. As it changes the file system, you will hear the phone telling you about the progress of the change. It takes a few minutes to change over from ext4 to whatever the stock filesystem is.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Define high?

If you nandroid you will brick your phone.

the proceedure to check if its disabled is to use adb shell and the mount command

if you see mmcblk0p2 youre golden

if you see mmcblk0p4 you did it wrong

if you need to disable the script, there is a flashable zip that will disable Voodoo in this thread.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
With regards to your question about SetCPU profiles; Mike Huang and I emailed back and forth about this a while back. I asked him the question you just asked the forum and never really got a straight answer.

I'm not sure why setting up profiles causes problems on some Vibrants. I've heard it has no adverse effects on other Vibrants.

So there you go.

He did agree that the 'on Demand' scaling caused issues and 'Conservative' is the way to go.
[Vibrant Android Development] darksandz93:
sorry for the newbie Q but is there a way i can go back to stock kernel without ODIN? and if i flash 1.5 is the voodoo lag fix automatically enabled? I wanna try to keep as stock as i can because i don't really need the OC or lagfix on my phone, it's pretty fast for me with no problems yet and i don't wanna mess around with that stuff yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] djquick:
Lmao, exactly like that:D:p
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
You can flash a stock kernel. There's a bunch of them floating around here.

SomBionix did not release a stock version of 1.5, but I'm pretty sure he did release one for 1.3 or 1.4.

The lagfix being enabled or not depends on which version of 1.5 you flash and if your Vibrant has a big or small NAND.

I have a great big NAND and all'a de girls dem love me so...but that also means no Voodoo for me :)

Also let me just say this.

There's so much to learn from the forums if you would take the time to browse and search through them.

And not just answers to the odd question either, but many many nuggets of wisdom and knowledge that will ultimately benefit you in the long run.

A lot of the same folks here who you hope will have answers for you also had questions too.

Not judging...just saying :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougefresh91:
Thanks for the info. Its odd because the phone was fine for the first few days of using the profiles as far as lag goes. My AppAlarm has been failing me/acting weird the past few days too, so maybe its affecting that as well. Guess I'll find out in the morning if my alarm goes off when its supposed to.

[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
Everyone is all about the lagfix. I don't notice any lag. Maybe it is just because I came from a MyTouch and my expectations are low, but it seems very quick to me.

Other than the Quadrant filesystem bench, is there any quantitative increase in performance measured by any other metric? Seems a lot of hassle to fix a problem I can't even detect.

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] sombionix:
LOL! You'll be there before that, trust me. The trick is to just rip a rom apart, go through every folder, every file, every image. Get to know them better than your girlfriend and you'll be all set.

Certainly, take your time. I'd rather run stock than anything that has FC's, that's why I finally ditched the MT3G, all of the 2.x ROMs were FC-Happy and RandomReboot Happy. Don't want that on my Vibrant!

Stuck in Vibrant screen

Flashed OC 1.2 bionix. Tried to go back to stock using a nandroid that I made just before I flashed. I did not wipe (I know better). Phone would not boot past Vibrant Samsung screen. Tried several times with wiping and nothing. Flashed oc 1.2 Bionix

back to phone, works great. Have not tried Odin yet. Will try Odin tomorrow. I like this rom I just wanted to try and do a better Titanium Back-up, lost my messages.
[Vibrant Android Development] csd181:
Sombionix,

I installed your rom 1.2 last night without a lagfix. Very nice Rom. I re-installed all the programs that I backed up via Titanium donated version, however, SIMS 3 will not install. Is there a reason for that? I had a made a proper backup as evidenced by smiley face on the Titanium.

Also, why does the battery shows 97 percent after a full charge overnight?

Thanks for your effort.
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
Try reinstalling the Sims apk fromt he Stock Vibrant apps thread. I've done this a few times now to try to troubleshoot for folks. I have never actually played the game, so I'm not sure how it does with your saved data. I would recommend restoring via Titanium after you reinstall. Titanium backs up EVERYTHING and it doesn't always work nice between 2 releases. I've taken to using Appbrain to save my apps, a specific folder on my SD for non=market apk's and Titanium to restore my saved data for those programs. Its a few extra steps, but I don't have problems with FC's anymore.

As far as the battery; charge it to 100, go into recovery and wipe battery stats, let it go dead then charge to 100 again. You phone just forgot everything it knew, it has to learn what a full charge is again.
[Vibrant Android Development] Beefvvl:
