I'm sitting in my kitchen. I'm using the leaked JI6 files. If this isn't proof that this works just dandy, then I'm really not sure what to else to say. Oh, and btw, I'm on the first floor of a 3 story house.....in the kitchen.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
People will always complain...
[Vibrant Android Development] flipper2006:
Arghghhh, not again. I have nearly perfect (other then occasional lag/pause), 1.7 has been giving me the best battery(JI2) ever before. A Workmate had a EVO and my battery was much better. After charging all night, at 11 it was 98% with relatively moderate use :) The evo was 73%. I used phone all day, it's 11pm and it's still 78%. Im afraid to change, but i guess, just make a backup and go for the next one.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
This gps is the fastest I've seen out of any rom, and I've tried every one in the dev section..

Remember people.. Wifi makes lock long, location on also seems to mess with It some...
[Vibrant Android Development] kizer:
Nah its just patience. ;)

Every Rom I've ever flashed the battery acts a bit weird then it more or goes normal.
[Vibrant Android Development] borrusownage:
so no one else is having the facbook contact sync problem :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Kubernetes:
All respect to Sombionix and Viral, but how did they determine this? They're dated differently, they're different file sizes, and we're seeing different performance in GPS from the two files. From my personal experience, the OTA (via Odin) made my GPS super fast and accurate, whereas Bionix 1.7 is nowhere near as good. It's kind of trivial to me since I'm sticking with Bionix regardless, but I'd like to know how they know it's identical.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Exactly even in the same rom I get different results daily... It is what it is....

@sombionix

Hello I was about to apply the fix u posted but I wanted to keep the stock android keyboard.

I open up the zip but I couldn't find the keyboard file. Which one do I need to delete in order to keep the stock android keyboard?

Thanks

Oh and onemore thing. If I flashed the Tom when my phone was fully charged do I still need to recondition my battery?

After I flashed the rom I wiped out bat stat. (My phone was fully charged)
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
I been wanting to jump the gun and try Bionix but I am unwilling to lose Sim 3 that comes with the phone. Is there anyway to backup Sim 3? Can I just drag and drop it onto my computer like Avatar? Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
i just used gps for the first time coming home from school (cal state la) just to see how it ran, and it was AWESOME! i was amazed how fast i got a lock (seemed almost instant), and how it kept up with me accurately on the freeway. i even missed an exit on purpose to see how fast it would reroute, and it was fast! i couldnt honestly ask for anything more... i dunno why people are constantly complaining about the gps on this forum. lol. edit: using bionix 1.8 with JI2 modem.

and bionix 1.8 is smooooth, havent had any problems yet. a special thanks to sombionix, and EVERYONE else. ill be donating to the whiskey fund as soon as i can buy myself some! :D (payday)
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
if they are identical why the build.prop from Bionix 1.8 ro.build.changelist and ro.build.fingerprint value are not the same as the OTA?

My GPS only works with the JI2 ROM and the OTA JI6. I just did the test, I Flashed Bionix, Frankin, Stock Leaked JI6 with the same result... poor GPS performance. Flashed OTA JI6 and bam GPS lock in less than 30 seconds on the first boot.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Of course the files are dated differently, and every files that's contained in my rom will more than likely be dated differently. That's what happens after you edit the file. The files dated is modified as well. The file sizes and contents are identical. As for further proof, I've posted it above. 10 out of 11 sat locks within 3 seconds sitting in my kitchen which happens to be on the 1st floor of a 3 story house. I'm seriously not going to sit here and argue any further with anyone about this. Honestly, if the OTA files are working better for you, then stick with them. I personally, along with many others are having ZERO issues with the leaked (identical) JI6 files.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
i forget where i got my copy, but just google it like i did and you should be able to find the .apk, copy to your sd, and install.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
FML. The contents of the files ARE THE SAME. However, the way the files are structured in a custom rom are not which may or may not be effecting certain things. This is unfortunately one of the downsides to optimizing so many files.

EDIT: Oh yeah...and did I mention that I got 10 out of 11 sat locks in 3 SECONDS? Oh yeah, I think I already mentioned that above.
[Vibrant Android Development] JnR82:
1.8 works perfect on my phone. Awesome work fellas!

Go Rangers!
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Just flashed 1.8 and I must say well done. VERY smooth. Smooth n snappy but im still rockin 820's in quadrant. Gotta fimd some time and dig into the thread to see if theres a fix but as smooth as this is. Psh im not to worried. Well done!!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] atlaswingpasaway:
Sombionix, how did you get your CPU to run @ 1.3Ghz?
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
Apply the voodoo

Which is lagfix
[Vibrant Android Development] DaSmittyman:
Ditto
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
ohh, wth. didnt even see that! i want to know tooo! lolol :P
[Vibrant Android Development] :
King has a kernal on his page that does this if I'm not mistaken , his website not in xda
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
The kernel I'm running which I unfortunately cannot toss out into the wild. I gave my word. But let me tell you, its FRIGGIN sweet. Linpacks in the 12's.
[Vibrant Android Development] thenikeman:
I think this is photoshopped...I can only get 8 locks on 12 satellites, 23 foot accuracy inside my house, there is no way you got that many..you must be using the OTA files or something, and not the crappy leaked ones!

:D:D:D
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
very, very nice. im jealous. lolol. can you give us any word on if this is in testing to be released soon? :p
[Vibrant Android Development] daddysays:
Is this something that might be available in the future?
[Vibrant Android Development] etichola:
I know its up to kngklick,

but is it possible to include KK's #4 1.3Ghz OC/UV for next version of Bionix? Thx.

EDIT. I found the answer. Thx.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
You can buy it on KingKlicks website for like $5.50

@sombionx, Check your PM please
[Vibrant Android Development] thenikeman:
It's a new kernel kingklick has developed...
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:

Just wondering did you see my post few pages back? About the android keyboard: o sorry for making another useless post: x
[Vibrant Android Development] adamcooks:
What happens if i flash the 1.8 fix, after removing the video player?

nvm just grabbed the youtube app
[Vibrant Android Development] acjames:
Well i guess i spoke to soon. Im still getting the lags and freezes. Still getting the black screens when im on the phone. Still getting the problems with calls where they can hear me but I cant hear them. Im going back to stock for the time being. Maybe 1.9 will be better and fix these issues. ...
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Yeah, I was wrong. That update didn't include the black keyboard. I'm not sure what I was thinking. It was just an updated mms.apk package.
[Vibrant Android Development] DarkAgent:
In stock there is the ability to hold-click on an sms that was not sent to resend it. Apparently Bionix 1.8 does not have this?
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
Nothing will happen it will just the put the videoplayer.apk in where its suppose to be
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
What's KingK's website?

EDIT: Found it.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Also, if someone would like to test out the leaked JI6 vs OTA JI6 file debate, then do a system dump for me. I'll make another release based off the OTA files. Actions speak louder than words...get me a dump and I'll give you a release.

Been running Pandora non-stop on Voodoo for some time now and I haven't had any issues. Whatever it is, it's not Voodoo. Frankly it's silly to just blame Voodoo for any gremlin that pops up, changing the filesystem should not have some of the effects people are claiming.

Unless you failed to disable before flashing! Weird stuff happens when you do that and even if you recover the only sure fix to getting things back to normal is to odin flash to stock first, per the OP. I accidentally flashed twice without Voodoo and although I was able to get back into a default environment and reflash without much trouble, my quadrant scores were significantly lower than they should have been (same previous configuration, etc). Odin flashing to stock and then back to Bionix cleared that right up.
[Vibrant Android Development] masterotaku:
Just so we're all clear on timelines and whatnot....

There was a JI6 build that circulated around with a 9-22 build date. This is the one that leaked via KIES.

There's also an JI6 Odin package with a 9-28 build date. This one's build.prop matches the OTA.

Samsung seems to be a tad sloppy with ye olde versioning. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
1. Is Sombionix a freak of nature who's genius defies the laws of physics?

2. Does the GPS lock on faster than **** Cheney with a shotgun?

3. Does this rom rock so hard it sunk the Titanic?

Yes to all the above! :D

Locked to 8 Satellites in less than 10 seconds. Got 10 birds in less than 15. Who cares what Sombionix uses to make the magic happen. It works. End of story.

EDIT: "Use wireless networks" is turned off.
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
I applied the fix and now YouTube wont open. It was working fine b4
[Vibrant Android Development] FlipnKraut:
Just updated to 1.8. Tested out the GPS for a while.

If I had Wifi turned on before GPS, I couldnt get a lock standing outside holding my phone towards the sky.

If I turned GPS on without Wifi, I got a lock in about 10 seconds. But that lock started roaming around. I watched in the map app as the blue triangle wandered around the block before coming back to me. It was actually pretty funny. It almost followed the street for the most part. It was like my phone decided it didnt get enough exercise so it wanted to go for a stroll.

I don't really care because I never used the GPS with this phone because of all the issues. But I was hopeful that this ROM would have fixed it.

Yes I rebooted, yes I reflashed twice, and yes I got the same results every time.
[Vibrant Android Development] ram130:
Ok first off ..Dragoth you were not understanding what he was saying...MediaHub "launches" fine and "operates" fine..but when you "buy" a movie it shows the message "your device does not support this file type messege" ..It does NOT do this on the OTA. If you want to test..buy a movie right now.

and just to remind you what he said:

Man I just compared my GPS to the mytouch slide and it kick my vibrant blue ass..:o...

My phone took 3min to get a lock and lost that lock 3 times...I got like 6-7 with "11" in view..while the mytouch got 8/8...also the blue dot in g maps was taking a walk!..The vibrant has an on and off day for gps..sucks..but great work man!! stable system so far with KK and no set cpu..go figure

SOMEONE GET HIM A SYSTEM DUMP NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Vibrant Android Development] ram130:
:D go figure..I might have to reflash 1.8 and see my gps gets any better..shall i say reflash number 6 :eek:
[Vibrant Android Development] mk262:
If you already have voodoo installed do you have to disable it before flashing a newer version of the rom with voodoo?
[Vibrant Android Development] FlipnKraut:
quick question.... All of you who are saying the GPS is fixed.. Where are you basing that answer from? Looking at the GPS Test app or actually looking at the Map app??

In GPS Status the accuracy for me never goes above 35ft. But when I actually look at the Map my location wanders away more than 300ft away from my current location.

I left GPS Test open for about 2 minutes. The whole time I monitored the accuracy and the locks. Accuracy stayed around 30ft sometimes dropping to 20ft but never going over 35ft. I left the Map app open for the same amount of time. It started off staying around the house but after about 45 seconds it started wandering up to 450ft away.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Yes always disable when flashing
[Vibrant Android Development] Oxirane:
YES. Always always always, unless you want to do the whole Odin thing. :P
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:

[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
Idunno if I should ask this question here or in theme section.

Last night I searched some notification bar for bionic 1.7. Well I'm running 1.8 now and I want to change my Bar to vanilla bar?

Like nexus one running 2.2

So my question is can I apply theme on here? I downloaded that morph App and extracted vanilla bar and it gave a a force close so I ended up restoring::(
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
Me 3. I've used it for car navigation for the last 2 days on 1.7 and 1.8. Each time the lock is very fast, accurate, and stays locked. I actually test it every chance I get when I hop in the car just to test it's reliability. Hasn't failed me yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] SBboundbRONCOS:
should be a zip on the first page, if not look in the master hybrid thread i know its in there
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
When u say master's thread the hybrid bionix rom? I know they got rid of tw's and running stock launcher. What does stock launcher look like?

Edit: he's thread has been deleted.

Well not yet about to.

And the one u directed me is stock tw theme. I'm talking about completely stock android theme.

Thanks for trying to help though
[Vibrant Android Development] acjames:
I left my map open for 5 minutes and my accuracy stayed at 10 meters and the blue triangle didnt wonder at all *shrugs*
[Vibrant Android Development] FlipnKraut:
How long have you sat and watched the Map app? Like I said before it works fine initially, but after a while it starts to wander.
[Vibrant Android Development] ajamils:
so what is the general concencious? I'm using 1.7, should i just use the fix or do a complete wipe with 1.8 ? Do I gain/lose anything by just doing the fix ?
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
I have driven with it.. It works fine
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
Watching my blue cursor on the closest zoom level in Google maps for the last 10 minutes, it's moved 4 times. Each time about 1 millimeter across the screen roughly in a circle. I will guess that 1 millimeter translates to 5 feet. So in 10 minutes, it moved maybe a net of 3 or 4 feet since it moved in a circle. I'd say it's close enough. That and I'm tired of staring at the cursor. It's like watching grass grow. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Owenv:
I like 1.7 so much. I think I'm gonna wait at least another version before upgrading, maybe until 2.0 (or 2.2 har har har)
[Vibrant Android Development] Oxirane:
I'm using the KK kernel version of the ROM... can I just flash KK's 1.3GHz from his site right over this without issue?
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
quick question. im rooted but have yet to flash any custom roms on my vibrant like i used to on the old mytouch.

I got the new JI6 update, and i have as much lag if not more then i had before the update.

Im thinking about flashing Bionix 1.8 with Jac's kernel. I know it will wipe all my data (internal sd). So to my question finally, what is the best way to back up everything (settings, apps, games...)? I know Titanium backup and My backup pro are both pretty popular.

I know this question is not directly related to development, but is related to Bionix, so dont kill me for posting this in this thread please
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
I have having the EXACT same issues. In both google maps and google earth. I did it both with and without my case on...
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Yeah, But just make a nandroid in case something goes wrong :)
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Can we please stop debating over the GPS, this is not what this thread is for. Obviously there are claims that the OTA JI6 works better than the leaked JI6. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and like I said, I would be more than happy to create a build based solely off the OTA JI6 files, I just need a system dump please. If and when someone can do this, upload the file to a server of your choice and PM me the link.
[Vibrant Android Development] ajamils:
sombionix,

I'm currently running 1.7 and other than getting bad battery life everything is smooth. Should I just flash the update or should I do the complete 1.8 ?
[Vibrant Android Development] ram130:
ditto..

SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE GET THIS MAN A SYSTEM DUMP!!..hey mayb if you put it in the OP more people will see the request :o

how long does it take to do a system dump?
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Sheesh, people, just use that which works best for you and drop the subject. Sombionix knows what he's talking about and you're not doing much more than saying "I disagree". Ok, you disagree.. now let's get on with life. If you're so smart, then use your own custom ROM. Oh, you're not releasing your own custom ROMs? Stop cluttering the thread.

</rant>
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
It takes 3 minutes to do a system dump.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
May i ask what this thread is supposed to be about? Im feeling pretty confident that everyone having the issues is running bionix. Now if we should report issues or give feedback can you point me to the correct forum thread? Either way its not a big deal as gps works well enough to get from point a to point b, i was more looking for someone saying "hey change this setting or add this variable" not a whole build to fix this rather small problem. Besides you must be fed up with the non stop ass kissing that goes on, best to spice it up a little. Now go take a ****ing vacation would yah? =)
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Ah...but how long to learn how to do it?

EDIT:

I'm going to take a stab in the dark:

adb system dump

?? Probably miles from being right lol :)
[Vibrant Android Development] knicks235:
aahhh i hate to ask this because im positive it has been asked, After using the ext2 lag fix i decided to go all voodoo on my phone, i diddnt hear linda...now i know not all vibrants are built for this but im pretty sure i'd hear it....i got the folder on the sd card with the log. what on earth should i do?
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
This thread is about using Bionix ROM to the best of their ability.. and to do that, you need to listen to the creator of those ROMs. Be respectful of the fouinder. It's probably best to go along with what the ROM creator suggests, don't you think? Either that or go off and create your own ROMs?

Just a thought.
[Vibrant Android Development] ram130:
Gingerbread SDK should be announce next week..Your Move Samsung..

ok kool..i dnt kno the steps or i would do it since no one here want to do it ...mainly talking those that complaining that the OTA build is better...I wish they would do the system dump and get it over with! if you have a link to instructions ill take a risky brick plunge..:(// I want to be able to buy movies from MediaHUB at some point..
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
Go recondition your battery
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:

[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Here is a thought for you. Make two threads, one for people with questions and concerns about bionix. One for praises and various other forms of ass kissing. This thread would be much less off topic then. Im an end user not a developer nor do i care to be. And as a result of my laziness i contribute via greenbacks.

[Vibrant Android Development] darksandz93:
hey guys my brothers phone got soft bricked and after fumbling around with ODIN and trying to restore his data without bricking it again, i FINALLY got it back to stock with all of his system settings, only thing is his swype isn't working at all. It didnt work with bionix 1.8 and now its not working with stock firmware. Can you guys tell me how to uninstall swype then reinstall it? Thanks alot guys
[Vibrant Android Development] PepeLasNoches:
Yes, through ODIN.
[Vibrant Android Development] sinean:
Had an issue with 1.7 but it went away. Now I have it with 1.8

I can't shut down the phone and charge it. Every time I hook up the power supply it boots. Any Ideas anyone?????
[Vibrant Android Development] TheSneakerWhore:
That doesn't mean anything...if you are using the larger NAND you cannot use voodoo...quadrant scores are just numbers--NOT UI experience.
[Vibrant Android Development] knicks235:
ok, to clarify, before flashing 1.8 with voodoo i disabled my old lag fix which is backed up on titanium...can that be an issue, or am i just really low on NAND which it should not be.

also if its not even enabled would it be possible to flash kk or oc/jac without voodoo? or hell am i fine where i am?
[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
for people experiencing a pause in the transistion to home screen animation using home button!!

delete weather and toggle! Press home... Launch dialer... Home again...did that work!

If yes reinstall weather and toggle and in the settings have it hide all widgets (accept flipclock/weather of course) and reboot phone... If this works for you great... It fixed my vibrant and my co worker's fascinate and captivate... Little annoyance but i manually restored 200 apps pressing home after each install to find which app was causing the pause! As i demo my phone multiple times a day selling tmo vez and att galaxies.... The home button should work smooth ;-)

again this is only if YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A PAUSE IN THE ZOOM ANIMATION returning home from any program with the home button not return as return seems to always work smooth...

PS I USE LAUNCHER PRO PLUS WITH 100% BRIGHTNESS AND CAN MAKE IT THROUGH A 9 HOUR DAY!! THATS ALL I NEED!

PPS SCREEN ANIMATIONS DIFFER FROM LAUNCHER TO LAUNCHER!
