What in the world can I possibly miss? this is so easy its childs play. lol
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
I was just referring to his specific situation. However, if you aren't currently running voodoo, then you only have to download Bionix1.3 w/voodoo and flash once, you'll be all set. Its built in and there are no commands needed to enable it.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Nice :) I have family there too.. I am going to the michigan game this weekend i think.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikeye9:
I have request/suggestion here.

Would it be possible to put HTC's exposé feature on the rom? It allows for quick switching between the screens. Otherwise this is a very solid rom.

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] vinnydakid:
You can get that in ADW or Launcher Pro.

I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Your guess is as good as mine at this point. Maybe try formatting your sdcard, its worth a shot. Btw, I just reinstalled bionix1.3 w/voodoo and it enabled without and hitch.

EDIT: I also just disabled without any problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
I am going to format my sdcard and my ext sdcard. Then I am going to reboot back into android, copy your bionix1.3 w/voodoo and without, lol, and then go back into clockwork and then format every thing it allows me to and without leaving re-flash your rom.

Would that be ok?

This is a Great... Awesome work. I'm learning as I go being new to Android and I am Loving your work.
[Vibrant Android Development] Waffle Slayer:
You're still making excuses haha. Its cool if you don't have the money or something but don't say its because you don't have a cc.

I used to work for Walgreens about 4-5 years ago and there's no age restriction on them. My lil cousin who is 17 got one the other day to pay for something online.

November isn't far away but just letting you know of current options if you really did want to donate.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Actually there is an age restriction, at least at the bank i go to. I could get an ATM card, but there is little to no use in that for me right now. I went in and they said i had to be at least 16 with an adult to sign off on the card or something like that.
[Vibrant Android Development] Waffle Slayer:
Been using 1.3 w/ voodoo for about 4 hours now. Well I haven't check to see if voodoo was installed but I assume it did. The phone is lightning quick. Applications open faster and the phone feels a lot snappier. I still need to set the OC.

I didn't think I could get used to the swype layout but it actually is awesome. Took an hour or two to get used to it but once you do you'll notice yourself actually paying more attention to the rest of the screen and not really seeing the keyboard since its mostly black. Totally digging that. Although the highlight seems a little purple to me but its probably blue. Damn eyes. I'll never be able to fly jets. :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Waffle Slayer:
Greendot isn't through a bank. You just walk in and buy it from a store. Anyways, I'm done with this convo. I was just giving you an alternative. Do with it what you will, sir.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Yes... This conversation is going no where haha. I just would rather have it through my bank, and i dont mind waiting a month.

But i do have an issue.. Whenever i get a SMS (using google voice) I get this long song notification, even if my phone is on vibrate. I changed the notification ringtone to the FB pop, and it still does it. Suggestions?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Just a note, though, you don't need to select anything wipe options via rom manager or in clockwork. My update-script formats and wipes everything for you.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
lol. That's really strange, I actually didn't modify any of the tones or google voice. Try just reboot your phone once and see what happens.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
<3 <3 <3 <3 Thank you! I just pushed this on my system with Bionix 1.7 running. MMS is working, SMS is working, and the Puzzle Notification is working! This was the ONLY thing that bugged me about 1.7, and now it's fixed. RIGHT ON!

Here is a screenie of my setup (Please don't pay attention to the 4G in the bar..)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Set the bar transparent, take all the icons off the bar, set the swipe commands via the bar setup.

[Vibrant Android Development] devcurious:
I'll admit to not knowing the specifics of how the OS may use hysteresis. However, instead of assuming I'm trying to be a smart-ass, how about the alternative of, "Hmmm, maybe this person has some knowledge about embedded devices and batteries, maybe he could help."

I am relatively new around here, so I apologize if I breached any protocols. However, depending on where this battery management happens (app layer or os layer), I may be able to lend some of my knowledge to the subject. Just point me in the right direction...

I am actually willing to get my hands dirty, put me in the game, coach.

[Vibrant Android Development] Mark271:
So just to actually get an answer.

If my GPS does not work with 1.7 JI2 baseband with voodoo/oc kernal, my GPS is defective. Right?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
lmao you jerk...what are the dragons in the voodoo
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
How many bars do you have? Are you inside or outside? If you are inside, did you try it outside?

It could just be a bad flash...
[Vibrant Android Development] castro_OO:
Ok it cant hurt right? Now that I love my phone I dunno if I can handle not being able to use it while it charges :(

[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Where are you located when judging your GPS locks? Some folks judge their GPS "defective" if they can't get a lock while sitting on their living room when obviously the best place to get a lock is outside with a clear view of the sky.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
I believe it just means that Voodoo COULD POSSIBLY make some parts of the ROM unstable.. But maybe someone who has more experience with voodoo could help you more..
[Vibrant Android Development] devcurious:
You're right, that was unnecessary flamebait.

I edited the original post, and please accept my apology ViralBlack.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Nope, Reconditioning will never hurt it :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
You didnt come and ask a question, you confused people and said we were wrong lol

Its a big community, theres lots to do :) So, wrong foot finished, share and help :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Rekarra:
Could be a number of things. With the new modem, where I live (which is kind of out in the sticks), I at best get three bars and move in and out of data. My GPS doesn't work at all. Can't get any satellites, no locks, nada. It's not because of the rom or my phone, just where I live. I go closer into the actually city, and have had pretty good GPS locks in the past. I can only assume this is going to be better.
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
A metaphor for the power coupled with inherent dangers explained in the post you responded to I assume.
[Vibrant Android Development] kingkurry:
first off great rom bionix :). But is the gps really fixed? It may just be me but the gpa takes a long time to get a fix and when it does its pretty damn inaccurate.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
If worst comes to worst, folks, just try flashing again. I actually ended up flashing 1.4 three times before I got a flawless system up and running. I'll take a re-flash over putting up with issues any day.
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
If you are connected to wifi, try turning it off until you get your first fix. Dunno why, but it just doesn't like to work with wifi for me anyway.

I think thats as good as it gets.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mark271:
I was standing in my backyard, the house may of blocked some satellites. At most, 6 in view, at least 1 in view, and always 0 locked on. I am at Augusta, KS right now, it is about 25 miles from Wichita, KS. Which is a larger city.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Oh.. Just reflash & that would probably fix it :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
@sombionix Please check you PM's! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] kolyan:
Ran some tests with 1.7 and JI2 against Nexus running 2.2.1

Tested GPG inside near window with Google maps: Vibrant locked a bit faster but not acurate, then 10-20 sec later Vibrant lost lock, and in about 10-20 sec locked again and this time more acurately. Nexus locked acurate the first time. < real time results of course can be different. Nexus has great GPS.

Also tested WIFI and 3G browsing. Both Nexus and Vibrant on stock and Xscope v6 browser were almost identical in speed.

One thing i noted on Vibrant is that I have done all tests with ZERO % battery and it still works....i would say 20-30 minute as of right now.....
[Vibrant Android Development] Mark271:
Not to bug, but I installed the Voodoo Lag Fix, will I have to go through the precautionary things it says in the beginning post? Or can I just simply load the zip file again?
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Always Disable Voodoo First :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Jayrod1980:
Driving around I lost Gps sync multiple times. This is the second time I've reflashed. I love this rom. Is it normal to not have an icon for media hub? Also I can't restore my mms or call log via titanium with this version...
[Vibrant Android Development] devcurious:
You're absolutely right.

How about this:

Can you guys tell me where the battery management is?

I'd really like to take a look at it and see how it works.

BTW, it wasn't the "Mr. Wizard" thing that got me. If I can't handle that, I may as well give it up now. It was the "over-intelligent" thing, I can't help that, it's my natural state. Don't hate me 'cause I'm smart! <- Joke and peace offering lol
[Vibrant Android Development] atlaswingpasaway:
so far while i was killing off my battery with these apps & settings,

PlayerPro

Psx4Droid

Gameboid

GBCoid

Web

Camera

Kik Messenger

SetCPU (400-1200Mhz)

Max brightness

Max volume

WiFi

GPS

Screen always on

I've passed the 3 hour mark WITHOUT the phone freezing completely or shutting down to a point that i have to remove the battery just to reboot. That took out my worry of having to reflash because of kernel-rom-setcpu conflicts. Even the moment before it died, I could still see Final Fantasy IX playing onscreen with the sounds, then it shut off because of 0% battery. Now I've been recharging for 3 hours (5hours more) to recondition. Will be posting my results soon.

[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
This cycle isnt going to end is it lol, people not reading the posts, nobody searching...

I LOVE helping, but this is like a black hole of mental energy... its not going to end /facedesk

This is my last attempt at it before I just refer people to read the website and do as it says.

The battery is fine, you have to recondition the battery through clockwork.

The GPS works well, it isnt going to get much more accurate on this device.

Theres only one known issue on the board, if yours isnt Live Wallpaper, logcat.

The phone at the moment is smarter faster and sleeker then it ever has been, If you have questions please visit the website and follow the flashing proceedure exactly as its shown.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
It looks like you're trying to learn more about how the battery works in these phones. Learning is always a good thing :)

I will say this; whether conditioning is necessary or not, it has always contributed to longer battery life for as long as I've had these phones:

htc Dream/g1 (Got this phone the day after it was released)

Motorola Cliq

Motorola Cliq XT

Samsung Vibrant (x2)
[Vibrant Android Development] Mark271:
Is the only way to know if I have disable Voodoo through ADB? I am too lazy to figure out how to do that?

If this means anything, the Resident Evil lady told me something about partitioning with I turned off my phone.

looks like it deleted everything too
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Its all good man, This thread has cost me about 47000 brain cells today

To retreive the battery stats bin do an adb pull.

By "battery is fine" you mean JI6 or JI2 ? or was this thing a big myth that JI6 drains battery ?

I can attest that this phone with this rom is perfect.. Absolutely no bugs, as said before gps will never be perfect on this device, this though has good enough gps to do the job.it won't win awards, but mine works pretty darn good.battery is great ive had the screen on for hours trying to kill it and it still has 40 percent. Got gps going, videos, internet, etc, going strong...

Awesome job guys, the issues are definitely user error.....

[Vibrant Android Development] karimsaud21:
ive seen several people address the mms issue with the puzzle notifications, namely the aosp one posted and the CM one.

how do i go about replacing the built in one, with one of these, CORRECTLY?

last time i tried to replace a system apk i used rootexplorer to delete the ***.apk in system/app and then copied the new ***.apk to the same directory; however that app wouldnt initialize.

can i get instructions for replacing it?
[Vibrant Android Development] Perpetual_enigma:
13hrs with and still cant drain the battery. Sitting at 24%. Trying to drain the battery is like watching paint dry lmao. Great job guys!!! Congrats on an excellent job. Count on a donation to the Whiskey Fund of Bionix from me.
[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Sigh, I suppose with ~600+ pages, nobody will read through the entire thread, lol.

Ok, long way to replace the mms.apk

adb shell

su

cd system/app

rm -r MMS.apk

reboot

goto settings/applications/manage applications and uninstall com.android.mms

reboot into recovery, wipe cache & dalvik-cache

reboot

adb push ~path_to_new_mms.apk /system/app

Cheers, =)

Bionix 1.7 w/ Voodoo

I came accross an issue today where during a call (also the speaker option was on) the screen went off then, w/o hanging up, I hit the power button to turn it back on I ended with the plain background. I couldn't do anything like pull down the notification bar, it was like just frozen. Soon the call is ended everything went back to normal. Can anyone look into it and confirm? I think this issue was addressed few pages back w/ an old Bionix version, don't remember which one though.

[Vibrant Android Development] ram130:
Guys can you test something. According to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803939

The GPS issues might be related to signal interference..can anyone try putting your phone in flight mode and see if you get more locks??
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Try doing a "Fix Permissions" in RomManager" , seems to solve weird issues like this, not always but it is a good place to start ...

Hope it helps
[Vibrant Android Development] Perpetual_enigma:
The 3g and edge is way over my head but as far as voodoo try this. Do th steps to disable voodoo just as a safety precaution, download Voodoo v1.1 for clock work and flash the remove the entire voodoo folder and restart
[Vibrant Android Development] speed145a:
I agree. I didn't want to say anything because I figured I would get crucified :D
[Vibrant Android Development] adm1jtg:

[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Same thing happens to me, well kind of, when I attempt to answer a call and say hello, the call ends, and shows the no signal icon.

Here's what I did to solve it, [well it's not really solved] I just simply, don't answer them, and then call them back, and everything is fine, Weird issue.

[Vibrant Android Development] Samcrow:
I flashed the Bionix 1.7 w/ Voodoo earlier this morning and have made calls all day. I have not run into this bug, hopefully I won't in the future. I would recommend using the app "Screebl", you are able to set certain parameters for your screen to stay on when it's in a certain position (good for speaker phone use). Good luck, hope a resolution is found!

Edit:

I have not installed SetCPU, which in the past was the main reason why my phone randomly froze.

No problem. I love the Nexus One, I'm too much in love with the Vibrant's Super AMOLED though.
