Yep, I'll clean some things up. I have about a thousand reports via PM I've been tending to all day as well.

hey sombionix, if you want, can you update the OP with a youtube video?

heres mine

[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Absolutely! Just watched the video, greatly appreciated! Thanks for this. I'm adding to OP as soon as I get home.
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
so i decided to return to this rom froom frankin-twiz i love it

i just reflashed it and did the lag fix

so im running bionix1.2ocv4 with lagfix

quadrant first run: 2428

linpack first run: 9.402
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
So flashing the stock firmware via Odin doesn't do the same thing?

I'm pretty sold on going back to HTC at this point. I've tried my best with Sammy and I just don't get it.

Anyone want to trade an N1 for my Vibrant?
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
My impression is that it's easier to get than you think, probably, though I never owned a G1 and don't have the cred that comes with a lot of years in the xda community. It has been really easy to root and flash this phone - almost idiot-proof - provided you don't introduce complicating factors yourself.

I'm sure the ODIN back to stock method will work, but it's not necessary if you nandroid - just think that's easier for most people. Also, I have mostly avoided the lag fixes, as whenever I've tried one it seemed to introduce more problems than it was worth. I couldn't give a rat's ass about my quadrant scores - only if the phone performs - and the lag fixes never seemed to help much on that.
[Vibrant Android Development] rel500:
ODIN is not as scary as it seems. I was skeptical to use ODIn until i got stuck at the Vibrant after trying to use a Morph that wasnt intended for stock rom. ODIN is your friend believe me. Just download the appropriate drivers for you pc and the zip file thats floating around here. As far as Nandroid its easier to nandroid if you dont have immediate PC access. I always save my nandroids on my pc to save storage on my phone. FYI NEVER DELETE THE CLOCKWORK UPDATE from your phone, if not you cant nandroid and you will have to use ODIN. hope that eases your worries friend.
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Yes it does the same thing. But if you have a nandroid backed up then its just easier to do that. Lol @ n1 comment. Great device but it's already showing its age.

I can see that the 1G is created, but when I checked my quadrant it was 889... any ideas why I am not able to apply the lag fix? Thanks for the help in advance.
[Vibrant Android Development] Chalup:

[Vibrant Android Development] saudicane:
Chalup lol...Thank you so much.. I was going crazy! No more working on my phone when sleepy!! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Trev420:
Is there any way to install the lag fix without a computer with adb? I can't use a computer with adb till tomorrow night and I want to install this Rom now.

Is there a way thru a program on my vibrant? Terminal emulator or something?

How fast is without a lag fix? I'm coming from vibrant9 with a lag fix. How does it compare?

Can I install from vibrant9 or should I restore to stock then flash?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
the lag fix isn't a necessity at all. IMHO, it affects your Quadrant score more than anything.

I would wait the extra couple hours rather than risk messing up using term em.
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Themers UNITE!

I see a lot of requests for theme changes for this rom, and was wondering why hasn't someone made a theme for this? I personally like the way Bionix looks in it's current state, but a lot of you have been requesting a lot of cool different things and even though your change/request may be small; those small changes can sometimes take a long time to do. Think of it this way, if we can get multiple people working on themes just like every other rom has, then Sombionix can focus solely on the inner workings of this rom. Call me crazy but I work a full time job too and can't imagine how he makes the time to cook up these roms at the pace that he's cranking them out. This rom in it's current state reminds me of the cupcake xRom. It was blazing fast and looked sick. But even that one was a collaboration between a great dev and a themer, and they too got burned out. What i'm saying is, lets not burn him out. Believe me if I had the time, I would be offering my services.
[Vibrant Android Development] djquick:
Where's 1.6????? I'm having flash withdrawls!!:D:D:p:D
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
This ROM is already themed.. it's called "black goodness". The ROM gets more skinned as it goes, the default search widget and power control widgets are getting skinned as we speak :)

But, yeah, I think it's a nice idea to have the ROM accept themes. I agree, don't want sombionix to get burned out. However, it does take a lot of work to delegate sub-projects to trusted people who are known to do good work and then follow up on all of them.

Several of us are already helping where we can and I hope there will be more help.. this developer deserves the assistance.

Long Live Bionix ROMs!
[Vibrant Android Development] rmarquez1974:
I used to help theme ROMS with KaotikKing for the older (MyTouch 3G) CM 4.X roms and JAC's ROMS. I don't have much time either, however, I would love to be part of this ROM and help out. T'would take time for me to play catch up to get the gist of how things are laid out with SamSung. Anyone care to collaborate on making some different Themes for this sick a$$ ROM?

Lemme know!
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Lol, yes i know that. I was just commenting on the amount of requests that are coming in. Every other post over the last few pages is a request for smbnx to change something. So why not have those people work on a theme to flash. All 100% black, or white for those that hate their batteries, or all pink for the ladies or dudes that are cofortable with their masculinity.

I flashed 1.5 on my way out for the weekend last saturday, and used GPS the whole trip and it worked GREAT! As many others have acknowledged, mucho thanks to sombionix!! He's done amazing things even without considering the time frame, add that factor and he really deserves all the praise.

However, is anybody else experiencing issues with not being able to turn off the 3g antenna? I no longer have the "2g networks only" in my Settings > Networks > Mobile Networks page

Any ideas?

Sorry in advance if this is in the wrong place, new around here and trying to learn the etiquette as soon as possible.
[Vibrant Android Development] glensta:
I know the bluetooth in 1.5 isn't working. Sombionix is working on 1.6, so far ETA unknown....but in the meantime, I've flashed 1.4 w/ voodoo and it works excellent!

Good luck and welcome.
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
That always seems to work for me... +1

1.4 is still impressing me, but with that said I CANT WAIT FOR 1.6, lol..... I still have not had a working GPS since I got this thing.

my battery has increased coming from 1.3 and I'm speechless haha I'm using 1.5 with jacs kernal, moderate to heavy usage, auto brightness, launcher pro, 2 widgets, bloo 1.5 (best facebook app ever) running in the background...with the attachment shown I still have 17% left now that's crazy, bionix thank you so much for this wonderful rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
A megabyte is a megabyte, correct? Regardless of what kind of device the data is on? I'm getting market download speeds that are faster than my desktop PC with the same amount of data. I wonder if this has to do with HSDPA in Seattle.

I'm close to giving up my PC and just using the phone for most things :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Beefvvl:
Just curious if the FFC will work with 1.6 or previous versions. I'm planning to do this hardware mod and would love for it to work with this rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Support for the FFC will be included in 1.6; it is not, however, in any release prior to that.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Yes, FFC will work on 1.6 but NOT on previous versions :)

Edit 1: %&#@ lol w_bovine got to you before me :(
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:

[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
LOLZ! It sure feels like dial-up at times.

[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
I clicked on search, then advanced search. I typed in FFC and sombionix and his post came up saying that he's going to add support in the next build. It took me two clicks and I typed two words and got my answer. This thread is XXL. I'll stop beating the dead horse already. I mean, why am I still beating it? It's dead. ;)

Thanks guys. I love this ROM. Currently running 1.4 stock kernel.

Patiently waiting for 1.6 w/ BT

My bad. I was skimming through the last 4-5 pages with my phone. I'll use the search next time. =o)
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Lier! No one is patiently waiting for 1.6... I bet there are people at sombionix's house pointing a gun at his head making him do all of this fantastic work!! hahahaha JK JK JK
[Vibrant Android Development] junkdruggler:
Well there aren't very many themers for the vibrant... I just dled this rom so I haven't had a need to theme for it... I've actually been too busy getting miui looking good for when froyo hits.. But just started getting requests for this..

This is the only theme I haven't posted a template for so that will be first, I'll make sure to also post it here and have sombionix post it in the op..

But so far today I have done the setting widget and dialer.. Dark market morph is in the themed apk thread with my dark launcher.. Don't use the dialer or contacts in that thread tho (not compatible)

Here is the dark dialer metamorph.. Just extract to android themes folder open metamorph click existing then the xml file

Question for you...I'm on 1.5 without voodoo...I'm selling this phone to someone who has no idea what to do with these roms... if the update comes in through tmo with 2.2 and he updates his phone, what will happen??
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
I don't think it would show an update on his phone.. Just return the phone to stock before giving it to him :confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] dancegrenade:
please keep the battery icon from 1.4 in 1.6 or something similar. or rather just have the file to flash?

How can I do that if I don't know how to use odin? Is there a rom out there?

Just like I said above your post.. This isnt the Q&A section. Go read a guide on how to use ODIN. ROFL

[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Its not that I don't want to, but its not as easy as you think to implement. Since the framework changes from build to build, I have to edit all the xml to get it to work. This means adding extra identifier entries in the public xml which is hard because there are thousands of entries and none of the id numbers can match. And assuming you can avoid getting a multiple entry error, then you're stuck with errors stating that there are too many symbols. Yeah....its difficult.

For the guy who doesn't know how to use Odin...

If you have never used it before I can understand how the Vibrant forum may not be too useful but you should obviously use them as a reference, but to understand how it works and what to do please review the following video on youtube. This should help with understanding the posts in these forums.

Lol
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
You won't be able to get back to stock without using Odin. There aren't any ROM's that I know of that will do it with anything other than Odin. That being said, I was terrified to use Odin the first time, because I see all sorts of people on here stating how they pooched their phone because they didn't do something correctly in Odin.

Well, as the saying goes, "Necessity is the mother of invention" (okay, that only sorta applies here) I pooched my phone, I HAD to learn to use Odin or I wouldn't be using my phone anymore. I figured it out by doing some searches on XDA and after doing it, I said to myself, "Why the hell was I scared of that?" It is really quite simple and if you follow directions, you will do fine.

FYI

I'm in my puppy dog begging position (sad eyes and all) desiring the 1.6 Bionix bone.
[Vibrant Android Development] rizzxx7:
You might just have too many apps running, I just benchmarked 1997
[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
FYI,

I've been decompiling and re-compiling Eugene's JI6 framework-res.apk with lockscreen and accurate battery mods the last 2 days, and found that using apkmanager 4.9, I haven't needed to edit the public.xml to manually declare all the new files. I've also found (thanks to untermensch) that the zzz_stat_sys_battery_1.xml from the original fightspit mod isn't needed for the battery mods to work on the vibrant.

Basically, take your base, unthemed/unmodified framework-res.apk, decompile, replace just the stat_sys_battery.xml and stat_sys_battery_charge.xml, then add all your new png images to drawable-hdpi, and re-compile, don't change anything else yet, it should build fine. And now, if you decompile from here, all your declarations in public.xml for the battery mod have been generated automatically.

Here's a quick test I just made if anyone wants to try flashing it, its the bionix 1.5 framework-res.apk, re-compiled with sombionix's old 1.3 version battery mod. It should flash fine via clockwork recovery, and won't wipe any data at all, literally its just replacing the framework-res.apk. I'd recommend wiping your cache and dalvik-cache before you reboot though.

UPDATE: 10/5/2010

Sorry about the bad update-script earlier, should be fixed now, please try it again,

Cheers,

=)
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Damn...I'll give this a shot. Thanks a lot dude. It hasn't always been like that, has it?
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Agreed...it's not all that bad. I tried it for the first time last week. The first time I tried to flash to stock it hung..."Oh s$@#! I killed my phone!" Exited ODIN, unplugged the phone, put it back into download mode and started ODIN...and it worked find. Took all of maybe 3 minutes to flash back to stock.

One thing about ODIN...if it doesn't work the first time, keep trying. Eventually it will work.

And 1.3 is supposedly much better to use.

@sombionix

I'm sticking with Bionix 1.4 for now, it's just too awesome and I'm in love with it. That said, I am offering you a $25.00 bounty if you can include the following in a future Froyo version of a Bionix ROM:

All three lock screens with lock screen chooser - similar to what is in Bionix 1.4

Battery icons - similar to what is in Bionix 1.4

There it is, a little incentive to make the ROM look sexy.. remind me of this post when you release a Froyo Bionix ROM and I'll submit the bounty in addition to my planned whiskey fund donation.

Anyone else want to add to the bounty?

Stock Vibrant has the glass lock screen, not the puzzle lock screen. At least that is what I saw from my Vibrant out-of-the-box. The Fascinate has the puzzle lock screen, no? And Bionix 1.4 has all three lock screens.
[Vibrant Android Development] rmarquez1974:
My TMO Vibrant had the puzzle lockscreen for all notifications, stock. Since re-flashing through ODIN to the EU Stock OS, I didn't see it for all notifications, just sms and missed calls.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
He isn't talking about for notifications. He is talking about the standard lockscreen
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
You are both correct. The stock Vibrant has the glass lock screen, however, if you miss any calls, or have any messages, a puzzle piece shows up like the Fascinate. Only diff is the fascinate uses a puzzle piece to unlock the phone instead of the glass.
