Hmm... I do plan on getting a prepaid SIM, but would the GPS then use data to achieve a fix?
[Vibrant Android Development] richan90:
Someone requested it a few pages back so I posted it that's all. Some people don't ever send mms so I guess it wouldn't affect them.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Im just telling you how they sent you the phone, android im sure has compatibility to do standalone mode if you had a 4+GB partition somewhere that stored all the data, etc.

Maybe it works, Ive been wrong once or twice for sure, all of us have, but my understanding of the Tmo system from network engineers I work with is that it has to be connected and that your data speed directly correlates with lock speed.

User modifications are welcome in this thread, but this one does go against the best advice of the developers, users discretion advised.
[Vibrant Android Development] ElGuapo361:
Currently on 1.6 with UV/OC. Getting great battery life and performance. Any reason for me to go to 1.7 at this time?
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
More features and fewer bugs, but honestly if youre not a flashing addict and youre happy, you arent going to miss anything huge ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] ElGuapo361:
You guys are turning me into an addict, but I think I'll stand pat for the moment. Great work!
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
1.7 has the JI2 modem (better battery life) and the market app now has live search (searches as you type). 1.7 is faster and has lots of other improvements. I was on 1.6 and 1.7 is much better, definitely recommend flashing 1.7.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Correct.

Admittedly I did not read all 500+ pages of this thread, so I just want to ask why swype isn't the updated version like it is in the OTA JI6
[Vibrant Android Development] ram130:
Great rom so far.. I just have 4 questions and im done:

1. If I flash j16 modem, will I get the WCMA only in Mobile Networks back?

2. Can I just flash .bin in the PDA field of odin?

3. Even when I have SETCPU on 100mhz or forgot about it, my phone never freezes or have a delay to wakeup. Does this mean I can continue to use the JACs OC/UV kernel without setcpu?

4. Is the J16 modem in the OP the leak or official version??

Thanks

+2 whenever you guys have the time
[Vibrant Android Development] karimsaud21:
Does anyone have any idea if the stock mms app from the official, NOT leaked, JI6 has the problems?

20 pages ago I asked if titanium had an option to backup the home screen, but I did not see a reply.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=782027&page=580

Also, can titanium backup call history, sms, favorites, etc?

OK, not a bionix question, but I know a lot of us here are using titanium to restore after flashes, so please give me a break. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
There is no spoon.

Advanced MD5 and Settings comparisons, JI6 is JI6

Thats like saying which 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS are we talking about

or What species of Homo sapien were referring to lol

JI6 is JI6 is Ji6 which is also JI6

build codes from Samsung are based on day and month. JI6 is a timestamp.

If there was a build for Vibrant after JI6 it would have been JJ1

Hey I'm having a little issue, when someone calls me, I answer, and then the call hangs up, and shows no signal, but when I call someone It's fine, why is that? Didn't do this on 1.4

Lol. I think people have a tendency to try and rationalize a magic bullet. Kind of like the debate between a G7 and G9 battery. Turned out all it meant was the region the battery was from.

So, JI6 = Sept. 06, 2010?

6 is the build sequence, so it was the 6th build, and released on the 28th (28th isnt part of the code)

so September 2010 Generation 6
[Vibrant Android Development] atlaswingpasaway:
uhh, did i miss it or is it possible to not have setcpu to get 1.2GHz??

the instruction said if i have an OCd rom, i should use SetCPU..

but i reverted back to stock (as in shipping day state), and just installed Bionix1.7 w/ JAC's OC/UV kernel. Will i need to setCPU to get 1.2Ghz???

this might be the problem (random freezes and shut offs) all along if so because i have only bionix1.7+OC kernel and i still use setcpu!

thank you..
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Well, that's silly. why didn't they do something common sense like "201009g6"? Would be far less confusing for others. Oh, wait, if Samsung did things with common sense, we wouldn't need 3rd party ROMs for better performance :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Without SetCPU your clock returns to normal, 100-1000
[Vibrant Android Development] Duntkno:
Hey so uhm is the updated gmail app possible to put on this new build?
[Vibrant Android Development] atlaswingpasaway:
aww.. i thought with Bionix1.7+OC kernel will automatically clock the cpu.. :(

well, onto testing..
[Vibrant Android Development] harabinger66:
Fyi-- I had voodoo disabled (i didn't screw that up trust me, done it about 8x before) I was trying to odin the ji6 modem and it hung up. Unplugged the phone and that was all she wrote.

I just tested bionix with the ji6 modem and I didn't get any better signal in my house, the downloading speed was at best the same as ji2, and the GPS at its best was 9/12 sats with an Error of 18m. Gonna try ji2 with GPS status and log those numbers.

Edit: Just checked with ji2 got 9/11 sat fix with an error down to 5m! location in about 3 secs in maps (about same with ji6) and down to 10m accuracy in well under 10 secs. This is with wireless networks turned off and always off.

My conclusion, there was no notable speed difference in download or upload speeds between jfd ji2 or ji6. The GPS appeared to work AT LEAST as good with ji2 as it did with ji6. My own results indicated that ji2 was actually better. So with the potential better battery life of ji2 it seems like a no brainer to me. Your results may very, but for me its ji2 all the way.

Thanks to Viral, Som, Jesus, and all of the puppies that went into this rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Per JAC and Unhelpful overclocking a kernel/rom from the box is unwise, not all phones can handle it, and not all users want to deal with it.
[Vibrant Android Development] disturkis4u:
First time flashing custom rom onto Vibrant. Have done w mt3g before. Isn't this supposed to be Ji6? Mine shows ji2 in system settings. This also doesn't lock as fast as it says in origin thread for GPS. also, the YouTube app doesn't have the HD button.

Any info on what exactly this is?
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Just installed and it rocks!

For some reason now when I run Quadrant it hangs on "File system writes". Any clue why?

I installed the OCLF before I flashed Bionix. Should I try to reinstall the OCLF?

edit: nvm got it
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
All the information is in the OP.

The Build is JI6, the baseband is JI2, the GPS locks just as fast, youre either in the middle of nowhere or datas screwed or somethings wrong, and Im not sure about the HD Youtube to be honest, may not have been included on this round.
[Vibrant Android Development] disturkis4u:
nevermind I accidentally downloaded the stock kernel I think instead of 1.7 with ji6. Duh. Sorry lol

On the Samsung Keypad, if you press and hold the "?123" button, you're presented with options including a D-pad to move the cursor to any area within a text field. I can't seem to find this D-pad on the Swype or Android keyboards. Anyone know how to get that D-pad function in those keyboards or a good way to move the cursor? That D-pad sure is a nice feature for moving around in a text field.. especially for someone with fat fingers.

Funny Story.. The only download that was working for me was the Voodoo one (Before the mirrors)

I had already checked if I could use Voodoo, but I can't because of the larger NAND chip..

So I figured it wouldn't enable it :)

But I start hearing the Steps 1-2 and Finished or something like that :eek:

Then I check my quadrant and it is 2563 (Normally 1000)

And I also checked and It says it is enabled via ADB Shell - Mount

Soo voodoo works on larger NAND chips now?

Odd... no idea, were still on Voodoo Beta 4, so technically it shouldnt be lol.

Awesome either way though
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Heh..didn't know this. So keeping "use wireless networks" is going to drain my battery faster because my phone is constantly scanning for networks? Will it continue to scan if i am connected to wifi, or will it simply use the location of the connected wifi?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
I was under the impression that having a larger nand simply meant voodoo MAY not work, but wasn't exclusively not working. (YMMV, kinda thing)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Nah, it just scans when applications are looking for location, its part of the GPS subroutines.
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
I was the same way with GPS. Back deck 5min no lock. Then I did this changed operation mode to MS Based via the instructions I found below (copied).

I changed it to MS based and it locked in 10sec to 9 sats.

Tested Procedure:

1 - Disable "Use Wireless Networks" - Settings / Location & Security

Or....give some intelligent input. Charge your battery to full. Run it all the way dead. Then let it charge minimum of 8 hours from the Samsung home charger. Not USB, not a car charger. Once you have conditioned your battery, test it again.

[Vibrant Android Development] PepeLasNoches:
I think we really need a new thread or revamp the OP with some of these questions, a lot of this ****e is getting redundant...
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
I learned to explain it that way when I was selling phones. The person would have to charge their phone to full on their home charger (minimum 3 hours) then let it go all the way dead (a good day, day and a half). Then recharge it for another 8 hours using their home charger. That gets the idiot out of your hair for at least 2 full days. Usually a week or more because they never actually do all the steps. If it got real bad, we would add putting your battery in the freezer over night before the charging it for 8 hours part.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Agreed. But we'll still a lot of folks who post questions without reading the OP first. You can't fix stupid ;)

Dear SomBionix and supporting cast.

Just wanted to thank y'all for all the amazing work you do.

Taking your OWN time and applying so much effort to provide a service to a community of users completely FREE of charge and ALWAYS without complaint, disdain or disrespect.

You guys are truly awesome and you deserve more kudos than I could possibly give.

It is unfortunate that there are so many smarmy, snotty-nosed and over-entitled dirtbags out here, kicking sand in your faces with nary a word of thanks, talk less of praise for your dedication and magnanimity.

So until the day when the virtual beatdown app is perfected. Please accept my apology on their behalf.

Keep doing what you do and know that most of us appreciate you.

As for the rest...

[VIRTUAL=*****-slap!!![/VIRTUAL]

That will have to do for now.

Battery life has been fine for me. But, I keep it charged on my computer and inside my car. But, it seems fine.

I tested the GPS about 10 minutes ago outside using the LBStestmode I got 6 sats in about 3 minutes + a lock and as i was about to turn it off it hit 7 sats. So, I assume if i waited id get all 12.

So, Im having no real issues. Even though it should lock all 12 in 10 seconds like a G1 does :)

Any chance on getting the Samsung_feeds widget? :) I really love that!
