So if i buy a movie on media hub will it work now?
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
I was using it, but it started to mess up my phone, so I just disabled it until a new rom is about. I could probably help you though if you have a question.
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
With Bionix 1.7, my Quadrant went from 900's to 1800 when I reflashed to JACs UV/OC w/ Voodoo from JACs UV/OC without Voodoo. Subjective performance also improved. Most functions are instantaneous (without lag), but not all, as might be expected. Keep in mind that Voodoo reformats the OS file system from a slower file system type to a faster file system type. However, it does not turn a 1 GHz processor into a 2 GHz processor.

For example, loading Titanium's large database, with 230 items (in my case), takes time. During those few seconds, scrolling through the 230 items on the middle tab is frozen much of the time. More priority could be allocated to touch screen interrupt routines during the loading process to eliminate stuttering during this scrolling; but then a user would need to wait longer for the Titanium database to load.

In summary, Voodoo will eliminate most but not all stuttering on the Vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
There is no way you could of done that.. You have to let the phone die on it's own and then fully charge it while its off..
[Vibrant Android Development] overload2186:
i have 1.7 and instal 1.8 and im having orientation issues. im going back to 1.7 to see if its my phone or what. sorry for my english... and thaks for this it's a great job..
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Anyone else having trouble downloading the fix from the supplied link?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
My battery is acting pretty good with this rom without reconditioning thee battery if I recondition it will it double battery life?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
You did just about everything wrong. First, you need to make sure your minimum clock is set at 200. Second, you do not want to have the set on boot checked. Thrid, you do not want to set profiles. This is all stated in the OP and it wasn't put there because we didn't want you to use those features.
[Vibrant Android Development] TheSneakerWhore:
It couldn't hurt...I had to do it twice to get normal operation out of mine.

Try it--no harm done.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Reboot, if that doesn't fix it, reflash the rom. Trust me, it works just fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
How good is your battery life?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
It seems like most of the people reporting issues are running voodoo. That should probably tell you something. If you are experiencing issues and you're running voodoo, try another kernel. More than likely its voodoo that's causing the issue. NOW...I'm not saying that EVERY issue is being caused by voodoo, but probably 95% of them.

I've personally been running Kings kernel, no lag fix for almost two days now and I haven't had a single problem. NOT ONE PROBLEM. Well aside from the audio issue with the video player which was fixed earlier and an update was posted.
[Vibrant Android Development] miclflores:
Thanks for the great ROM. Been using 1.8 since about 2pm today and it's been awesome! Definitely don't see the need for a lag fix. Playing with stock kernel for now, but will probably try the JAC and KK ones later.

My favorite live wallpaper (Music visualization, the one that is black with a blue eq type graphic that moves according to music) is missing and I tried to pull it from 1.7 but not having any luck getting it to install. Does anyone know how I can get this? Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
lol. Just reflash the rom. Problem solved.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmerchant:
So you have to recharge while off? Ok, didn't know that - but had planned on just leaving it charging on it's own...now i'll make sure not to mess with it till it's done...it's about half way now...
[Vibrant Android Development] SeanFloyd:
I'm running Voodoo and **** is legit. Other than having to go do the EugeneFroyo/Stock routine then flashing 1.8 voodoo everything is dandy.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Do you have the files? If so, you just need to push the files to the system/app. Put the files in your sdk tools folder, and then adb commands:

adb push yourlivewallpaper.apk /system/app
[Vibrant Android Development] Link3737:
I installed 1.8 with Voodoo and am getting a solid 950 Quadrant score (Compared to 2.7k before on stock with RyanZA's lag fix)

Other than turning my phone black what does this actually do...?
[Vibrant Android Development] jmerchant:
Weird, I got 1933 with Voodoo...
[Vibrant Android Development] hotadef:
sombionix what files and setting should I use to get gos like 1.8 on stock ji6 or is yhat even possible
[Vibrant Android Development] miclflores:
I'm guessing I can pull them from your 1.7, but I'm not sure what files I would need to pull. I thought it was just one and it's called visualizationwallpapers.apk. Are there other files I need to pull as well? Thanks again.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Oui vey. Ok dude....let me explain this to you. RyanZA's lag fix is a placebo at best. Its upping your quad scores (which literally has no baring at all) but still writing data slower. It writes data to your ext2 partition which is slow slow slow and not effective at all. The voodoo lag fix creates an ext4 partition which writes data WAAAAAAY faster and is much more effective. Although your quad scores are higher (meaningless anyway) with the ext2 lagfix, your phone is actually performing slower than if you were running voodoo.

EDIT: And also, if you're getting a 950 quad score, you probably don't ACTUALLY have voodoo enabled. Just an FYI. You should be getting a min of 1400-1700.
[Vibrant Android Development] wannagofast:
LOL. Oh so true. I have had a crappy day up until that gem, thanks.

And, thanks to the whole crew for awesome dev work on these ROMs.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Does set CPU still cause reboots? Or is there a trick?
[Vibrant Android Development] castro_OO:
Big Time Noob Question

Ok im coming from the Blackberry world so take pity on me. But when I flash the 1.3vr will I still get all the goodies from 1.2vr with it? Ill say sorry now for the dumb question.
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
I love this ROM but the Market is wicked slow.

I tried clearing cache, rebooting, flashed back to stock and installed 1.3 without lagfix or OC....still slow as poo.

I'm sure someone has a trick for me?
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
If you're talking about slow searches, slow transition between screens when trying to install etc. It will fix itself. Ive found that most ROMS ive flashed lately the market starts slowly and once the ROM is broken in, it will pick up again, give a day or so. It's something with rebuilding cache I think? I dunno, but dont get impatient, it should be fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Im not OC'd, didnt mention that. I am running kingklicks kernel though.

I am having the same issue that i posted yesterday, whenever i receive a text through google voice, i get this long played out song as my ringtone, even though i have "facebook pop" as my default notification sound. I tried to change the sound through messaging and rebooting.. i cant think of anything else to do. Any suggestions?
[Vibrant Android Development] rizzxx7:


Yes plus whatever v3 has
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Markets completely not working for me all the sudden. Any help would be appreciated.

When I download anything I get a download was unsucessfull error...
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
if you give it time, it will.

You just have to hit wait...and then.....wait...and then....make sure to keep the screen alive...then...

At least that's the problem I got.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Its a different issue. Just errors instantly. Hmmmmm
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
ok...its either my phone or the Market.

Just tried Eugene's ROM with same results.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Your saying you get the error too?
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
I had the same issue,but after 3 or 4 reboots it's fixed.
[Vibrant Android Development] allareconnected:
I can confirm this as well... The market was extremely slow at first but now runs insanely quick. It takes some time but well worth the wait!
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
Is this what you need?
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
I ended up hard reseting it. All is fine now. For future ill reboot about 5 times to see if that fixes it.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
I've already seen this behavior. At first it was so slow I thought it was whacked, but after visiting a few times it was back to normal.
[Vibrant Android Development] pinoiryder:
can i use this voodoo lagfix combined with the bionix1.3?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=781456
[Vibrant Android Development] JeremyNT:
I just gave this a shot and had a whole bunch of FC issues with Titanium Backup, Email, and ADW. ADW was FC'ing so much I couldn't even switch back to the TW launcher, so I went ahead and reflashed back to Eugene's Frankin ROM.

Any idea what went wrong for me?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
yes, you can.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
You're the only one that's reported these issues. Could be ADW, but not sure, I don't use it.

Voodoo lag fix vs Jac and King's Kernel

SURE is good to have options, I have been flashing Bionix rom's back to back with minor bugs not even worth to post, I'm currently running 1.8 with kings Kernel and have " Z E R O I S S U E S " in my Vibrant is smooth as butter, silk, velvet whatever you want it call it without any " LAGFIX ". If ain't broke why Fix it ? Voodoo who ? You want to mess with voodoo, read instructions,

Other wise Keep it simple and be happy..

Go bionix and The Whiskey team.

YOU GUYS ROCK\
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Hey, Just some feedback on the rom. Ive been running it since release, the minute of. lol.

Other than the things that were fixed in OP this thing is running like nobodies business. I cant thank you enough man.

Anyone with issues, its your phone, a app, or your fault, at least the little quirks..

I good way to see if anyone else has the issue is read, more than likely if someone hasnt said something so simple as "My orientation aint working, anyone else?" well I doubt by now no one has not noticed that. So try and trouble shoot on your own first will ya...

Awesome rom again...
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
This is all rather interesting. As for me, I've lovin' Voodoo. I didn't think I could use it until Beta5, but learned with a bit of effort it was available to me.

I tried Kingklick's when I first flashed an OC/UV and for whatever reason decided to try JAC's the next time around (before Voodoo). I found JAC's to perform a bit more consistently for me.

Matter of preference? Minute differences in hardware? Dunno...but I do think it's interesting.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Thanks for the kind words friend.
[Vibrant Android Development] MBok:
This pretty much sums up my experience with all of the Bionix ROMs. Keep it up, Team Whiskey.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Please check your PM once again lol

what will I miss from stock to bionix what apps dont com in bionix
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
I had I little bit of trouble with the rom, not having internet connection, but now disallowed fixed, thanks for the best rom for the vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] clivo360:
so what makes the GPS better in bionix 1.8 over the stock JI6?
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
@Bionix this is a nice and fast rom even better with kk kern man, cant wait to see what you do with 2.2 whenever it comes;)
[Vibrant Android Development] tsalate:
@some and team

This release is stellar by far the best. Thanks for the hard work. I hope all the redundant questions about voodoo and mom's and the countless others from people not taking the time to read or research don't push you away. Because it irritates me having to read the same questions over and over and over. Any who good job I haven't had one problem that was a major concern and the few bugs that did didn't bother me as much as the mess Sammy and tmo put together.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
^this. I decided to try Voodoo for the first time with 1.8 After about 30 minutes of playing with the phone, I kept having random issues with it. Lag from wake up (yes, I had all my SetCPU settings correct), Orientation wasn't working, some apps not working correctly, etc. I tried rebooting multiple times, did all the standard stuff. I finally said to myself: "I've never had issue's without Voodoo, and the ROM runs smoking fast and smooth without it, so why bother?" I re-flashed 1.8 with Jac's Kernel and haven't had a single issue since.

Just sayin'. Voodoo sounds/looks good, but it does indeed contain dragons. My number one suggestion to folks would be to try a kernel without Voodoo, you will probably be surprised at the performance without it. Some people will utilize the extra speed of Voodoo due to their app use, I would dare say about half of those that actually flash a voodoo kernel don't really need it though.
[Vibrant Android Development] kingkesi:
Sure enough, reflashing fixed the problem for me. Thank you!
[Vibrant Android Development] disturkis4u:
so i wanted to upgrade from 1.7 to 1.8... i put the disable-lagfix in the voodoo folder...then rebooted.. and now when i turn the phone on it just forcecloses every thing and i can't do anything.

so i tried to get into recovery and it wont let me.. when i press vol down and press power it goes into download mode instead :confused: :confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] pinoiryder:
just flash 1.8.. thank you..
[Vibrant Android Development] rjwisniewski:
Upgraded from 1.7 to 1.8. Loving this. Great work!
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Use ADB to boot into recovery.

adb reboot recovery

I had this issue once and had to flash it back to stock using Eugene's Froyo Rom and True Stock Firmware. Not saying you will have to do the same, but maybe. At least you can get into DL mode, so you know you can unbrick it :D
[Vibrant Android Development] daddysays:
Try holding vol up and down and pwr. then wait till you see the samsung vibrant screen then release them all, I have noticed that JI6 made getting into recovery and dl mode, easier, for me anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] SeanFloyd:
for me 1.7's battery seemed to last far longer, going to recondition the battery and hopefully it'll help
[Vibrant Android Development] disturkis4u:
oh maaannn thank you so much!! i was getting ready to have to flash through ODIN. i had thankfully already backed up everything =) now i'm just flashing 1.8 so i can move on with my life.
[Vibrant Android Development] dancegrenade:
I have been using voodoo since 1.3 and haven't any issues with these roms. I still agree with you though, most people don't need voodoo.

MediaHub

was just curious, i had the JI6 OTA before i loaded bionix 1.8 and mediahub worked great played my purchased movies and all. after i switched to 1.8 im back to the "your device does not support this file type messege". no big deal really, bionix rocks. was just wondering if anyone else had the problem

later
[Vibrant Android Development] afxiso:
Can you please make a youtube video to know what are the improvements of this rom over the stock? Thanks guys.

Can I flash a new rom.while conditioning my battery?
[Vibrant Android Development] kizer:
For me the last two 1.7 and 1.8 seemed to drop fast and then all of the sudden around 75% it just stopped. Like my phone was stretching its legs from 8-430 while I was at work then come 130am it was sitting at 72%. Of course it feels weird watching it do that, but all of the sudden I have tons of reserve for the evening. Of course I'm going to bed at that time, but it makes it fine. ;)

Today is kinda the Same. Its 730 at 75% and I'm guessing its going to hang around there until I goto bed.

I'm guessing its because I use it a lot more at work and just check emails and text messages when they come in.
[Vibrant Android Development] kizer:
You can pretty much do whatever you want. The idea behind conditioning your battery is to wear it down. Flashing will beat it up some. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
No. it would negate the purpose. You aren't so much as conditioning the battery as you are teaching the rom about you're battery, it can't learn if you flash in the middle.

"Conditioning the battery" is a misleading term, because what you are doing really has no effect on the battery itself, only on how the rom perceives the battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] gozilar84:
im newbie in xda. i've tried flash the 1.7 and 1.8 also figured out the battery drain fast like sky diving compare to the stock rom? i also tried to conditioned the battery in clockworkmod recovery like the main post stated. But it didnt work either.

can anyone help to guild me to fix this battery problem, please?:confused::confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] MrGibbage:
Maybe it's something specific to this SetCPU app, but why would we NOT want to use "Set on Boot"? Isn't that the whole purpose? We want these settings to take effect each time the phone boots up, no?

I have disabled the Set on Boot settings, as the instructions tell us to, but it still seems strange to me.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Fixed!

Sombionix, I wasn't blaming the ROM at ALL! Your work is greatly appreciated! Annnd, you were right, it was the kernel, switched to the stock kernel and everything is smooth, thanks!

What was weird was I never saw the issue running your older roms and JAC's kernel. Ill give KK kernel a shot later tonight see if the problem persists.

EDIT: problem was music player + pandora causing freezing. (1.8 JAC's kernel + setCPU set at 200/1000)

EDIT Again: Just tested 1.8 KK, and all is good too. Music player + pandora running perfect.

-joseph
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
That's because Bionix is not based off OTA is based on Leaked JI6. My GPS stopped working after flashing Bionix,, went back to OTA GPS is good again.
[Vibrant Android Development] blackoakx22:
What ROM ate you flashing? The one with voodoo? I'd so and you got the failure at line 81 do this. if your coming from one of the roms with voodoo disable voodoo and leave the voodoo file that disables voodoo on your phone then make sure voodoo is disabled then download one of the ROM's with out voodoo then flash that (with the disable voodoo still on the phone) then flash the ROM once it is flashed flash the ROM with voodoo then bam no failure At line 8r1 and it is working
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
It does seem strange, I agree. To be honest, that's one rule I'm following blindly, i.e. I have not seen a specific reason for this, other than that it has to do with a bug in SetCPU, not Bionix.

It's a bit of a pain in that half the time I forget to reset SetCPU after I reboot, but all in all it's not a big deal.
[Vibrant Android Development] Oxirane:
Do all of you use KK's kernal or Voodoo? I've always used Voodoo... wondering what the advantages/disadvantages to each are. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] glawrung56:
ahh ok , thanks for the info, guess its back to ota , hopefully a bionix based on the ota will happen soon
[Vibrant Android Development] willcwells:
Which part didn't work? I just finished conditioning my battery by following the instructions in the original post and it went perfect.

Vibrant + Bionix = Awesomeness
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
*sigh. They are both the same thing. There is no difference between the two. Viral even confirmed it. That is not the issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] renardk764:
Running with moderate use since eight am. Battery is at sixty five percent. I've never seen this good of a battery before. Awesome!
[Vibrant Android Development] glawrung56:
not that i doubt you , but mediahub didnt work when i had the leaked JI6, it did work when i had the OTA and now it doesnt work with bionix. go figure
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
You are being fed incorrect information. The leaked ji6 and the ota ji6 are the same. Don't take my word for it though, ask viral or bionix, they will confirm.
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
I still get freezes on audio. Through headphones at least anyways. It's at random too, plays longer than other times. 1.8 KK kernel, NOT oc'd.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Did you recondition the battery? Or this is just regular without the recondition?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Had the same issue running 1.8 JAC's, I had to switch to the stock kernel and all was good, give it a shot.
[Vibrant Android Development] gozilar84:
i followed the all parts of the instructions too! after the recharge, and use the normal daily use..the batter droped fast still..like half hour drop 15% battery only in the sleep mode, from 65-50%.

btw, i used the voodoo that version. maybe it's that??:(
[Vibrant Android Development] borrusownage:
has anyone had the problem with facebook contacts not syncing at all? ive tried everything but i cant get any pictures with my contacts
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
I am running bionix 1.8 with jacs kernel. I just tested media hub and it works fine for me. You may have something else wrong
[Vibrant Android Development] CzE517:
Do I have to recondition my battery everytime I flash a new rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
hahahaha...yeah, I remembered Viral saying that. Good enough for me. I didn't bother trying to argue it! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
the modems are the same but that is not everything... no disrespect to Viral, but facts are facts... my GPS does not work with the leaked JI6 but it works perfect with the OTA. I can do the test 1000 times and the outcome is the same.

Leaked JI6 = buggy GPS (3 to 5 minutes to get a fix standing still)

OTA JI6= awesome GPS (10 to 20 seconds fix.)
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Yes. The ROM has to relearn the charge/discharge curve of a given battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Our source code is from the leaked JI6 which is identical to the OTA JI6 source.
[Vibrant Android Development] CzE517:
Thanks wasn't to sure about that or not..
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
You have the right to your opinion. Viral actually did test the two of them and has actual facts that show the two are the same. He didn't just flash them which in and of itself can show inaccuracies. But I'm sure your "facts" are much more accurate.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
These people are funny....

Issues are from not understanding their device...

This roms battery is fine...

So was 1.7, give it time people, condition the battery, watch what you got running in the background....

Every rom I flash is fine yet others have mad issues, hmmmm guess I'm the only one who knows how to properly set up my phone, or maybe my phones superior...
