Somb,

I don't want sound like a broken record and duplicate what has already been said BUT, first, i'm truely enjoying the break of not having to load new rom's every night! Also, how the heck did you get the battery so good. I used the phone for 2 hours talk time, maybe 2 more hours playing, I took off charger at 7:45am, it's now 7:53PM and the freaking thing has 78% left. I am using Juice Defender because it seems to work very well with this rom without any lag whatsoever. Awesome job. 1.91 battery was not even close to this. ALSO, it seems like each day the battery is getting better and better. The only thing with a minor issue is the GPS, for some reason, even though it locks in 9/10 it's not positioning it correctly. It seemed like my phone didnt lock on, but it positioned more accurate with the stock. Does that make any sense?

Also, finally, im getting 'H' when using Signal Widget, that mean im in HSPDA area?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Thanks! I did a lot of mods in the power management files to help with battery. Reduced scanning times of certain modules to compensate for the awful standby issues these modems have. In regards to the GPS, I couldn't really tell ya. I've made as many GPS mods to this thing as I can. Personally, it works perfect for me, 10/11 locks and perfect positioning and accuracy on my end. Seems hit and miss with some people unfortunately.

If its displaying H, then yes, more than likely.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Undervolting isn't a simple modification. Its advanced kernel modding. We provide downloads with two different undervolted kernels. Just download one of those. If you prefer not to overclock and just take advantage of the undervolting, simply download setcpu and set your clocks to 200/1000.

@sombionix

sombionix-

i wanted to send you a pm, but i'm sure you receive enough as it is. I personally want to thank you for the bionix fusion ROM. First ROM i ever flash and i simply love. Many issues have been resolved for me- including the battery and a WIFI issue I had at my work place. I work at a college, and with stock, it wouldn't let me connect to the WIFI -WPA2 Enterprise with a certificate- for some reason. It gave me a wrong IP address... I finally resorted to a static IP. After flashing this ROM, it works flawlessly. GPS is good for me. Wanted to ask you, do you think the JI6 modem [compared to the JI2 modem] takes up more battery life?

Again, thanks! I hope you read this- been wanting to give you thanks.

EDIT: OH SH*T! my apologies to all the Bionix people... i posted this in the wrong thread, it had to be on the Bionix Fusion. Doesn't matter, it was a "thank you" post anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] timafey:
I know this has been covered already, but i cant find the exact post, but how do I install the old keyboard? This is what I did, deleted the old swype from /system/app and then adb push the old swype, I am getting FC error upon bootup? any idea how i can get the old black themed swype back?

Thanks!

[Vibrant Android Development] iflyabeech:
I have a had a problem 2 or 3 times on Bionix Final using Kings kernel...Usually in the middle of the night, when charging.. the phone just wigs out and locks up...This is always when the battery full (bull$h*t) alarm is going off. Unplugging it usually fixes the problem.. I am running setcpu at 200/1200...

I have attached a logcat.. It kinda looks to me like the media scanner is locking up....

Hopefully someone can help! Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] pphi:
I've done that twice, still crashes.

This is with the final stock kernel and the battery update.

Yeah I'm gettin like for hours battery life not even using the phone much at all ? Any help for me I love this rom so smooth but its killing my battery, well seemingly anyway

[Vibrant Android Development] vgz01:
That's definitely not normal, custom ROM or not, to get four hours of battery life with even moderate usage. Did you recondition the battery per the OP? What kind of battery life were you getting before you flashed Bionix?
[Vibrant Android Development] willsnews:
Like 8 hours I did the battery wype just now so ill report back tomorrow hopefully with better results but partition the battery? Am I missing a step you think?

hey guys, sorry for the noob question, i just flashed the 1.9 bionix with voodoo, but i did have the disable voodoo flashed on my sd card from before. So i have no lag fix now. Do i have to reflash the bionix or can i just flash the voodoo beta 4

EDit: After a couple of hours searching, i found the answer under post # 2404 of the bionix fusion 1.1 thread. I went into the voodoo folder of the sd and erased the disable lag fix part of it and then rebooted. 1902 quadrant score
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Hey, thanks. I believe the ji2 modem gets better battery than the ji6 modem.
[Vibrant Android Development] vgz01:
I didn't say partition, I said recondition. and OP = original post, where you would have found this:

Battery Reconditioning:

1. Charge phone completely, leave plugged into power

2. Boot into recovery

3. Wipe battery stats

4. Reboot

5. Remove power cable

6. Drain that sucker all the way

7. Recharge fully

8. Rejoice!

Do like it says and see if it improves your battery life. Best of luck!

Thank you

I have been running your latest iteration since u popped it out on (10/22?). After following the instructions to the letter, doing the battery drain n wipe, and setting my clocks at 200/1200 (using bionix with jax/voodoo/colorfix), i have to say this is the best this phone has ever run. I use the regular bionix so i can still show the vibrant to customers without having to explain why it doesnt look like the display model other than some color changes. I have also been experimenting with the Juice Saver app. The combination of everyone's work has led to a faster, slicker, yet power sipping phone. Im getting about double battery life even with the thing OC'ed. So to bionix, and everyone else involved from the jax n voodoo teams, thanks a bazillion.
[Vibrant Android Development] Egotist:
I did a search and couldn't find anyone else having the same problem.

When I have the phone set to vibrate it doesn't vibrate for text messages. It works with the ringer turned on but I get nothing when set to vibrate.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
Go into your Sound and Display settings and check your Vibration Settings

Kudos

After Running Eugene's latest JPM Froyo for the better part of a week I found that I like it a lot.

However, it just doesn't perform as beautifully as Bionix Final. Especially after the additional juicing by Voodoo.

So I NAND restored back to Bionix and am once again very happy.

I just thought I'd share :)

Excellent ROM Bionix and Team Whiskey.
[Vibrant Android Development] stoober:
Love the ROM

Love the ROM. Thanx a bunch. it is the best yet.

I do have one question, how can I get the keyboard back from 1.9.1? loved the size and the swype. New keybd is much smaller and I have fat fingers. Since losing 50 lbs is not an immediate option, I need to get the keyboard back.

Help please!!!!!:)
[Vibrant Android Development] Egotist:
I don't see anything for text messages. It vibrates when I get calls but not text messages.

I assume yours works?
[Vibrant Android Development] creator2456:
Go into the messaging apps preferences for notifications and make sure it is set to vibrate there as well.

Is anyone working on a flashable zip to restore the stock framework now that we have adapted the J16 framework format? I rather much like the stock look and would like to return to it if I could.

On your site I was told that if that if the mount command returns dev/block/mmcblk0p2 and not /dev/block/mmcblk0p4, then voodoo is disabled. I got that but I got so much more stuff in the output, including dev/block/mmcblk0p3 and, as I am new at this, I just wanted to make sure that I am correct in interpreting that voodoo is disabled??? I want to make sure b4 flashing my phone to the kingklicks or fusion bionix...

Thanks for your help!

[Vibrant Android Development] funeralthirst:
don't know if i'm the only one, but i went from 1.9.1 to final and my only issue (besides missing the blue circle battery link in the op) is the gps is not functional in final for me. gps status typically only sees up to 4 sats now and connects to none while before (1.8, 1.9, 1.9.1) it would see 11-13 sats and connect to at least 7. are there settings i should change that i don't know about or should i flash ji2 or the 1.9.1 gps?

Try uninstalling winamp and see if your problem still continues. I believe winamp is causing your issue.

hey buddy, thanks for you help. According to the test, it is not a NAND chip.

I think I'll do without voodoo, it seems to be alot of trouble. I don't want to take a chance, I want to run the disable voodoo.zip flash but I'm hesitating. Does anyone know whether that will cause any damage if voodoo is already disabled???

[Vibrant Android Development] kusotare:
I'd love to know what kind of battery life you guys are getting. On 1.7, 1.8, and 1.9 I have excellent battery life. 15-16 hours and still pushing 20% at least. On Final, I'm losing upward of 10-15% PER HOUR with zero app usage. Check the screenshot and see what I mean (dont mind the colors, the screenshot app doesnt capture colors properly on galaxy S devices).

I'm running BF with JAC's 1.1 voodoo kernel applied over the top (since final didnt include a voodoo build) and havent changed anything else. The drastic battery loss is seen when the phone is just in my pocket. No WiFi, No BT, no GPS, No app usage AT ALL. The only use the phone has had in the last couple weeks (at least since I installed final) is 2 or 3 5-10 minute phone calls. That shouldnt even be phasing the battery.

So I'd love to get some input. And no, before you suggest it, i'm not searching the thread for answers. It's almost 1100 pages long and i'd get 500 results to sort through. Bigger pain in the ass than its worth and much easier for you guys to just post a quick response.

quick edit: this has been a persistent problem through two re-downloads/re-flashes.
[Vibrant Android Development] ezadel:

I agree. I've done the battery recondition thing, i'm losing like 8-10% battery life per hour with nothing on. Can barely get through the day. Running bionix basic

Do you have wifi on? I noticed that my battery drained tremendously with wifi on.
[Vibrant Android Development] kusotare:
So I flashed back to 1.9.1, reset the exact same settings I had on final, reloaded all of my apps and app data, still using the puzzle lock screen. I've had my device off the charger for 1 hour, 46 minutes, 35 seconds at the time of post. Havent lost a SINGLE percent battery. Still at 100%.

So what changed between 1.9.1 and final that is causing the ridiculous battery loss? I like final and everything, but if I have to live with the few minor bugs that 1.9.1 has in order to stay off the charger for more than 3 hours, I'll take it.

[Vibrant Android Development] princearic:
Kus,

I've found that tweaking a few options seems to make the difference. I always reflash the j12 if I have any doubts. I change my lock screen to glass, disable data roaming, and turn off a wifi option that makes sure when my screen times out it doesn't keep switching between wifi and carrier signal. I would venture to guess that would solve most issues with the battery. Give it a shot and let me know.
[Vibrant Android Development] kusotare:
No need. I reverted back to 1.9.1, which I never had any problems with anyway and I'm getting 10x the battery life. Check the attached screens for a comparison between the two.

Final: 4h 5m drained 93%.

1.9.1: 6h 16m drained 11%

EXACT same settings and apps on both roms.

I'd say thats a pretty huge difference.

1. Back up your internal memory card.

2. Format your internal memory card. (read directions before doing) (search before asking)

3. Re mount your internal sd card.

4. Place the rom of your choosing on your sd. (bionix 1.9 with voodoo of course) (sombionix and team wiskey are the @#%&}

[Vibrant Android Development] IDtheTarget:
Team Whiskey, please read and respond

Hey guys.

I've really enjoyed the whole Bionix set of projects. But I think there may be something going on.

I had been using 1.8 and having no problems with GPS. I flashed Final a few days ago and put JAC's Voodoo kernel on top of it. I went to use my GPS yesterday and the GPS started acting like it had with stock, losing signal, etc.

I know that every time somebody says that their GPS is borked, you guys reply "it works for me, so it works!". Well, there's some variable going on that is making it not work some of the time for some people. I don't know if it stops working for people who leave the rom on their system for more than two days, or what. But SOMETHING is happening that causes the GPS to mess up sometimes, even on phones where it was previously working.

I don't know the Android system or Vibrant subsystem well enough to know what to look for. What phone codes I should look at to see if they've undone themselves. I know about aGPS and downloading satellite locations, and that shouldn't affect my losing lock on all GPS satellites two minutes after starting my drive.

I don't know if a logcat would do any good, since it happened last night and I'm inside now, but could do one if you like.

But *please*, don't just blow me off with a "it works for me", help me figure out why this is happening. I guarantee that I won't be the only user who's grateful.
[Vibrant Android Development] Keslynn:
I had similar GPS problems after I first installed this ROM. They seem to have worked themselves out after the first couple days. I still lose lock ever so once in a while but it's not nearly as bad. I'm crossing my fingers that it stays better. Maybe everything needed a chance to settle in? I tried all the listed SUPL settings but none of them worked at first. Right now I'm running it with SUPL set to google. I honestly have no idea what was causing the problem and what caused it to finally change for the better. Hopefully one of the devs has some insight.
[Vibrant Android Development] SEALBoy:
I have a really really stupid question. I'm thinking of flashing this to my new Vibrant, and I read the OP, but I still can't figure out one thing.

2.1 .
