Dude, thank you so much for all of your hard work. I'm sticking with the Bionix ROMs for as long as possible. Put my name on your list of "people willing to help with anything they can do" :D
[Vibrant Android Development] ithsburtondwight:
sombionix! you are an amazing person.......... thanks for all this man :)
[Vibrant Android Development] lralexl:
im also using 1.4 with voodoo and JI5 modem.

it really is like butter.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
"The babe with the power."

"What power?"

"The power of voodoo."

"Who do?"

"You do."

"Do what?"

"Remind me of the babe!”

Negative four points if you dont get the reference.

Yes, Voodoo is by far the most advanced and stable RFS (lagfix) Fix that is currently available. It doesnt just fool your phone into being faster, it truely replaces the RFS and formats your /data as EXT4

( answer to the reference = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxoE2az9mJM )
[Vibrant Android Development] GTOJim:
Flashed and rebooted, so far so good.
[Vibrant Android Development] SBboundbRONCOS:
can someone explain in a little more depth how to apply the lag fix or is it already IN the kernal?
[Vibrant Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
OMG!!!!! Its so amazingly fast Im in love again. thank you Bionix this is amazing.
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
There any real world difference between the update.zip VooDoo and the Odin? Other than Odin sometimes being flaky?
[Vibrant Android Development] YepMan68:
As expected, as close to perfection as possible. Now get some well deserved rest...and let's see some more great work after the break.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
With voodoo you dont HAVE to do anything to make it work, the new kernel takes care of it when you boot the first time.

you ONLY have to make sure you flash the disable_voodoo.zip if you EVER want to flash, nandroid, backup/restore, or Odin.

All of the above will FAIL hard if you do NOT disable it and flash or something anyway.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
Flashed. Rebooting. So far so good.

Wish I could install Voodoo, but I can't...yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Very very soon
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Is the ji5 modem sticking viral?
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
I'm going to find out soon...
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Please let me know... Downloading eugenes ji5 now just incase
[Vibrant Android Development] koreanskater:
ji5 modem sticks.
[Vibrant Android Development] ithsburtondwight:
sombionix, i'm loving the new wallpapers!!! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Yes, baseband is still JI5
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
This Kies thing is telling me it wont update, and it's a totally stock install except for Root and Rom Manager. I guess I have to try Eugene's method if it keeps this up.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Sweet!!! Flashing again. 6th time today lol :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
okay, first problem i found. scrolling through the settings, it's really laggay and choppy. Wasn't like this before.

PS - i'm coming from stock JFD to 1.3 Stock Kernel to 1.4 Stock Kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Did the same thing in the beta, give it a few reboots and some time to settle in, it fixes itself
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
Thank you. We'll do just that.

Viral, is this JI5 modem worth it?
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
Yup, J15 Modem loads up with no hitches....sweet!
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
For reference, if anyone would like more direct responses Im sitting on freenode in #bionix and #cyanogenmod.

IRC.Freenode.com
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
Is there a JI5 update.zip floating around anywhere, not part of a whole ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
not at the moment, I can always make one tomorrow if needed but its not too much harder to flash the whole deal, reboot, and flash bionix
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
I would make one just to have. And link me tomorrow when you do :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
Sweet I'll just do that, I wasn't sure if it would muck something up.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I agree, but I am le tired lol

Coding and late night dont flow for me personally
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
well, just to let you guys know the about the GPS.

I turned the on GPS TEST. Almost instantly i see 12 and in less than 3 secs it connects to 7. I just hope it actually "works" on the road.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Tomorrow sir. Sleep well
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I personally think it is, I noticed not necessarily a huge gain in performance over the JFD baseband but a notable level of increased signal strength and stability.

maybe a bar stronger generally in signal, no or very very little wobble in my data speeds, and Im not 100% on if the modem files have nothing to do with the GPS, but the JI5 GPS locks in under 7 seconds.

Not just yet, updating the Overpowered Vibrant thread on CyanogenMod to reflect the new changes. http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/6322-howto-the-overpowered-vibrant-v15/
[Vibrant Android Development] Z51:
if my device goes to sleep on its own, the screen no longer turns on with the side power button... how can I fix this?
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
Wow glad to hear it increases the signal strenght. I don't get good reception here and it irks me to no end when the phone ends the call while i'm waiting for it to ring. Btw, I personally only use the stock kernel version so I don't have to unlag or unvoodoo. To get the JI5 modem, does this sound right? Thanks

1 - Download Leaked JI5 and install using ODIN [with the file you made HERE, thanks!]

2 - Root

3 - Bionix 1.4

PS, This is my upgrade path. JFD STOCK --> Bionix 1.3 Stock Kernel. --> Bionix 1.4 Stock Kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I personally used Eugene's flashable JI5 here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=796437

I then installed superuser from the market and reinstalled ROM Manager (cause I had time, I think you could just flash straight to recovery and use the update.zip that exists.)

Went from there to installing the new 1.4 with Voodoo
[Vibrant Android Development] hourst2:
I think it is the settings in SetCPU. Try not enabling any settings other than the 1200 max ? Min and setting it to conservative. That should fix it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
200 min, 1200 max, conservative, no profiles.

Theres a bug in SetCPU and if you enter it and it says 17mhz for both, exit and re-enter and its fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
Word to the wise, you dont have to keep rooting your phone after a flash with odin. Use the update.zip for clockworkmod and install a rooted rom, it will root your phone every time.
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
Thanks. I actually want to stay away from messing with the kernel. And the phone is plenty fast for me. Will my steps still work? If yes, I have everything ready to go! :D Thanks again.
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
I performed JI5 different...

1) Flashed Bionix 1.4 ROM through recovery

2) Loaded JI5 Modem.bin file through ODIN v1.3 (PIT 512)

3) Self Booted (Check "About Phone" - success)

I guess either way works. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] SamVib:
Can I flash Vodoo if I have Kingklick? What are the steps to doing so?
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
Thanks. By JI5 Modem, do you mean THIS file? Or the whole ROM
[Vibrant Android Development] Z51:
what about if i uninstall setcpu?
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
Yes, I downloaded that same file, then, I extracted the zip and just used the "modem.bin" file.
[Vibrant Android Development] epakrat75:
Bionix v1.4 w/ Voodoo is still Beta 4, right? If so, I won't flash it since I already know it doesn't work (with my "special" Vibrant") but if Beta 5 that is supposed to work. Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
If thats the one off my links over on Cyanogen, yep thats the beast
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
Oops, sorry mis read your question. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Still Beta 4, next few days should bring Voodoo Beta 5
[Vibrant Android Development] dancegrenade:
this mod is amazing...thank you so much

sent from shinra
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Then it just runs at stock clocks
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Should be able to flash over it, I dont know what kind if any lag fix you have.

If no lag fix is applied, flash stright over it.
[Vibrant Android Development] blink6583:
Great shutdown animation I love it so much.Thanks you so much MR.SOMBIONIX
[Vibrant Android Development] creator2456:
Did it this way as well. Going to push this to the limits today to see just how far I can get.

*edit* Holy Crap! Sitting inside, behind a brick wall, I am getting a solid lock on 5 (seeing 11) satellites in under 5 seconds with a 12m error. Would have never thought it possible.

To sombionix:.

I will gladly donate to the whiskey fund as soon as I get done paying bills this week.

[Vibrant Android Development] jn_vista:
I very much loved 1.3, now trying to flash 1.4 w/KK but I haven't had any luck, I'm going to try 1.4 stock, but I've always used KK kernel's and never had any issues! Maybe its because I've been up since 4 am yesterday. Will definitely report any issues if there are any, other than my inability to flash properly... :P
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
And everyone here on the Vibrant forum as well. Thanks a lot folks! Damn it's already 1:55am. Oowell, i've been losing a lot of sleep from Starcraft 2 lately anyway :D
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
I find myself changing very little. I wonder if we can get the Froyo style settings menu with the colored icons. I think the Mobile AP messes with it, but a few roms have both.
[Vibrant Android Development] SamVib:
With wipe?

Sent from my Samsung Vibrant using the xda-developers app.
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
loving the rom so far. and thanks again bionix and the gang here. one thing tho. it might be just me but I think the rectangular battery meter on 1.3 is better. It just flows & fit better within the space it's located in.
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
EDIT: FIXED with Reboot

Found another issue?. Hopefully it's just me. When I try to run GPS Test from a freshly booted state, the GPS doesn't even seem to turn on. Nothing... with wifi on or off. I checked both location settings on in the location menu in android. Hmm.. gonna check it out a little more.

PS1 - okay, rebooted and turned on GPS Test once again. It caught 11 sats immediately. And within 5 sec locks on to 6 and then goes up from there. this is on 3G no wifi. going to reboot again.

PS2 - okay, after another fresh boot and straigth onto GPS Test, i get the same result as above in PS1. So all is good!

PS3 - I updated the modem.bin from JI5, maybe that was it and it needed a reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I can't any of these 1.4 ROMs to work at all, they simply won't flash. and I can't seem to go back to 1.3 either. Have I bricked this phone?

So I tried to use the tw stock look.zip and it is causing FCs. I didnt make a nandroid backup before i installed it to.

Can anyone else try it?

How would i go back to stock kernal? I want to undo this and install vodoo. I have kingklick.

Thanks. I miss swype>:-(

[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
Could you try using Virtualbox and assigning it the proper USB port? I have had that work on some setups.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
What is virtualbox?

I can run adb shell just fine, if that matters.
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
It cracks me up that my 3G upload is faster than my cable modem. 1200 to 1700.

This ROM melts faces.
[Vibrant Android Development] Goog1e Phone:
Did you have Voodoo applied before? Looks like you have to disable it first, before you can flash the rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] epakrat75:
@sombionix

Thanks for losing two bets to get this release done and out! It's very much appreciated. :cool:

At least you won't pull out your hair getting the next one out, right? :D
[Vibrant Android Development] martin0641:
A free Virtual Machine client on which to run pesky Windows installs for those times when you need it. Odin is Windows Only at this time, and if you need to really wipe the slate clean on your phone and start fresh, flashing to Froyo and then back down to Eclair with a repartition is the best method IMHO.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I never applied voodoo
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Even if I got virtualbox set up, I would need a copy of windows, correct? I don't have any Microsoft software.
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
Not a clue.

You could always do a Titanium backup first. I wouldn't use it to restore system files/data if you are coming from stock or a different ROM. But it seems to do a good job of restoring my Robodefense game every time.

I'm not a big Sims guy, so maybe someone else will know for sure. I don't see why Titanium wouldn't work though?
[Vibrant Android Development] thenikeman:
Great ROM so far!!! Thanks for all your work!

I do get a FC when going to Contacts > Updates > Log into a SNS account > choose any of the 3 choices. Is that normal since those clients may not be installed?
[Vibrant Android Development] Postraumatik:
im about to flash 2.1... sounds good.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
First go to settings>accounts and sync>add account

After that, you shouldn't get a FC anymore.
[Vibrant Android Development] skeeterou:
I'm a lurker and a bit of a ROM noob. I installed this today, and everything is working great minus one thing. I went into my gmail and turned off the auto-sync. When I try to turn it back on now, it reboots my phone. It does it both through the gmail account settings and the settings>accounts and sync option. So basically I have no way to turn sync back on. Any ideas?

EDIT: I am on the Bionix 1.1 with NO lag fix installed FYI.
[Vibrant Android Development] thenikeman:
Thanks man..I remember seeing that somewhere (else) now that you say that!
[Vibrant Android Development] nick_karstedt:
Awesome rom! Only thing I've noticed is that LWPs seem to freeze when the phone is unlocked (Phone still operates normally, image just sticks). After I open another app and return to home, it runs as normal. Using ADW launcher.
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
sombionix i have a question and i know it has not been asked but i was about to flash the 1.1OC but just saw there is a new 1.2 but u did not specify if it has the kernel included in it or not...

ill wait for a reply

keep up the effin awesome work
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
just out of curiosity i am running r3 and would like to know what the users think about this rom over r3? which do u guys like better?
[Vibrant Android Development] winhwah:
Just flashed the 1.2 version and it works great so far. Love it! Thank you so much for putting this together and sharing it with us. I can't definitely wait to see your future updates... very promising.
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
I'm running through 1.2, but perfectly happy so far - thanks for your great work! A couple of mods I'm loving are Launcher2 from Eugene's roms, and his vanilla lock screen. Launcher2 I pulled from Vibrant9; the lock screen has a thread in this forum.

OP - what kind of whiskey (or whisky) do you prefer?
[Vibrant Android Development] bobofosho123:
I didn't have this problem before but whenever I try to install either of your roms now, I get this error message:

"Copying files...

E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblkop2

(file exists)

E: Can't Mount DATA

E: Failure at line 373:

copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:

/tmp/recovery.log was copied to /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery.log. Please Open ROM Manager to report the issue."

Even odder (is that a word?) is the fact that even though it tells me it didn't install your rom, it still somehow boots into a corrupted version of your original bionix rom, i.e. the gps doesn't work and my quadrant score is mediocre at best. Any ideas? I still love your work, I just wanna find out what the heck is going on, lol.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

damn i could seriously have killed a bird just for that ugly unlock screen
[Vibrant Android Development] nvydrew:
this is a great rom! my ever problematic works great now! thanks man!
[Vibrant Android Development] keithrich1990:
Thanks working great Bionix1
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
seriously all of are are flashing 1.2..... does it include the kernel ?????
[Vibrant Android Development] Bugdog:
Dude - read the OP thoroughly. Way, way too many people post questions or problems and then post "oh damn, I wish I read the OP all the way through". And then everybody reads your question, sees immediately that it's answered in the OP, and doesn't feel like answering b/c you don't read anyway.

OP sez: stock kernel. Changelog for 1.2 says nothing about the kernel. Therefore = STOCK KERNEL!!!

Long story short - if you install something w/out actually reading the OP where it's presented, you deserve whatever problems you have, and are not likely to get any sympathy.

@Colby: not trying to give you TOO hard a time, but it is there in black and white. If you read that and still aren't sure, good idea to mention that you did read but didn't follow. You should be fine to flash this.
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
So with this ROM I'm unable to install the SIMS game , whenever I try to open the file a get a 'Parse Error'

?:confused:

[Vibrant Android Development] SmartBrother90:
i searched but couldn't find anything..

has anyone been able to push the stock 2.1 dialer and contacts from vibrant hybrid r2?
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Not sure how or what happened, but youre going to have to follow the fix on the first page.

that error means that the /data partition 0p* was moved or encoded again differently. Typically this means you have a 0p4 and its expecting a 0p2.

Get to download mode, flash Froyo so it errors out, reflash JFD (both with odin)
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I have no way of using odin.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
content deleted by user
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Well, live near me or feel like shipping me your phone? >.>

theres really no way to get out of there.

The ONLY way to recover at this point is to disable voodoo which is on your phone and has the partition changed over to EXT4.

If you can get shell access, which is unlikely, you can use the shell to create a file in the internal SD under the /voodoo directory called "disable lagfix"

If you cant get access with ADB to the shell, you have to use odin, without either of these Im not aware of a tool that can fix it.

But seriously, if you want to ship it to me well talk via email or pms, I can fix it, it just requires Odin
[Vibrant Android Development] Goog1e Phone:
I'm also having issues with the settings. It seems like it lags when you scroll through the settings. Not a deal breaker though. Awesome rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Viral i flashed ji5 then bionix 1.4 with voodoo. Once i enabled voodoo my phone bricked out. Im not in the process of flashing back, doing ji5 all over again then bionix... Is ji5 compatible with voodoo?
[Vibrant Android Development] Goog1e Phone:
I'm pretty sure you have Voodoo installed...if you're not sure, just make the file and disable it anyways. It doesn't hurt. Read the OP on how to disable it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Thats the same process I did, when you say bricked out, what does it do now?
[Vibrant Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
Anyone wanna help me port the conference call for front facing camera from 2.2 to this rom. Theres a way to put a FFC on this phone and Im gonna do it. I have one request if someone can make a voice swype keyboard for this rom I would greatly appreciate it I dont know how or I would do it. Another I noticed with the JI5 modem my speaker is alot louder.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Stuck on galaxy s loading screen to black screen. I flashed 2.2 to error out then jfd now on ji5. Flashing 1.4 now and then ill flash kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I flashed JI5 flashable from Eugene, booted fully

then rerooted (just in case) then booted fully

I flashed 1.4 w/ Voodoo, Rebooted fully and removed disable voodoo file

rebooted and let voodoo encode EXT4

Success, did the same process on two seperate phones here
[Vibrant Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
I did the JI5 flash aswell then installed this rom with voodoo and it works amazing.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaine13x7:
Yah i must of just got unlucky.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I used asb shell to create the lag fix disabling file in the Voodoo directory. Where do I go from there?
[Vibrant Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
reboot your phone you will hear the chick talking.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Reboot your phone, you should hear linda (if its a voodoo kernel) decoding the EXT4.

Also, check your data partition. has mmcblk0p2 or 0p4?

adb shell

mount

that shows which you have
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Whoa! I rebooted the phone and it booted into the normal system, I have 3G and touchwiz and all. How is that possible??? Installing the ROM wiped everything before it errored out.
[Vibrant Android Development] winhwah:
Got up this morning and what I see? Santa sombionix has stopped by w/ 1.4...

One word FANSTASTIC! Currently running Bionix 1.4 KK Kernel OC 1.2 GHz and this thing is flying fast!

sombionix, you outdone yourself again. Thank you so much!!!

Also, thank you everyone who has contributed to this project.

P.S: I did not encounter any lags in the settings menu as some folks reported.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I have absolutely no idea >.>

thats..... crazy lol.

Id still check adb shell, su, mount to see which partition you have
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Well, after creating the disable-lagfix file and rebooting, I rebooting again but this time into recovery, got into clockwork and flashed the Bionix 1.4 ROM and it looks like I'm back in business with Bionix 1.4 and all is well.

I don't know what the heck happened, I never installed/enabled Voodoo, but it looks like the crisis is averted.

Do I need to leave that Voodoo folder with the disable-lagfix file on my sdcard from now on? I'm currently in Bionix 1.4 with the stock kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] cazper210:
damn viral i know you must be tired so many post back u was going to bed. lol see you made someones night fixing there so called bricked phone:D
