[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Bionix put ffc support into 1.6 so if you are running that than all that is needed is to install the ffc in your vibrant. Now that doesn't mean there is native app support, you will still need to find apps to utilize the camera, but the drivers and functionality are built into his latest rom.

Your confusing wireless networks with sky hook I think. Skyhook uses WiFi databases, I believe the other uses a smaller database with tower coordinates.

Having a serious call volume issue...can barely hear anyone e when I call them or they call me? Anyone else have this issue? Any fixes? Reflashing didn't help.
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
wow that sounds like alot with getting into download mode. Im going to go in as if it's a piece of cake. Thats what i get for overclocking and flashing these roms and not reading reviews. thanks alot though! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Beefvvl:
Yeah I know. I think Sombionix is taking a some time to relax from making this great rom but I'm sure he'll pop in to update a few things on the first page. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] frankencat:
Not getting any GPS locks with this. I'll have to try outside I guess. :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Beefvvl:
I think people aren't making the "disable-lagfix" file correctly. Make sure you don't have the .txt at the end in your phone. If it has this it won't work. You will also hear the lady's voice when you shut off your phone taking the steps to deactivate Voodoo. You can also confirm using adb or terminal as instructed on the first page to verify you have done this correctly before flashing back to any other ROM. I know cuz I bricked my phone before. So I make sure I do it right using Terminal Emulator and typing in "mount" to verify.

I also had that same issue getting into dl mode manually and had to use adb to get it into dl mode for me.

please help
[Vibrant Android Development] creator2456:
Been fixed. Search for GPS-MMS-Video.zip in the thread. It was posted by Master or ViralBlack last night/this morning.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Turn up the volume?
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
actaully "disable-lagfix" should be created as a folder and named like this...

disable lagfix

no periods, minus signs or nothing.

when you reboot your phone, the female robot will start speaking and say step 1, step 2, step 3 etc and says blah blah blah back to rfc or something like that lol excuse me for not knowing what she says exactly.
[Vibrant Android Development] jgiard6:
Volume was at max...actually found a workaround. Turning the volume all the way down and then back up fixes the issue. All phone calls just start at the lowest volume setting by default now. Strange bug.
[Vibrant Android Development] glitterballs:
Yeah, I did check that, and it had no extension. Now that I think about it, I think 1.6 flashed fine, but somehow the disable-lagfix file was still on the drive after flashing, which I thought it would've been gone with the wipe the ROM does, so when I deleted that and rebooted, I think that's where I ran in to problems.

Anyways...it's working again. I was just freaking out because I couldn't get into download because it would only go to recovery. Once I pulled the battery for long enough I would get the Vibrant/i9000 screen and ODIN picked it up at which point I realized I could do an 'adb reboot download'.
[Vibrant Android Development] glitterballs:
I thought that was the case for eugene's ROMs, but for bionix I've always had to have the dash in there.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
I was kinda being a smart ass :D but glad you found a fix.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jdom58:
Whoaa, I have the battery issue also, down to 28% and counting in 4 1/2 hours from a complete 100 charge and battery conditioning. I'll ty it again but this is really bad with only moderate use. Glad I took the charger to work!

Only widgets I have are Pandora (not running), Beautiful Widgets (weather/time), Facebook, and Search Bar.

I just lost 2% while writing this comment :eek:
[Vibrant Android Development] Beefvvl:
Oh..I didn't know it works just making a folder. Cool. Yeah I made the file using notepad on my PC and then transferring the file my Voodoo folder in my phone and it worked for me. I named it exactly disable-lagfix and verified it using terminal emulator on my phone. But either way it works.
[Vibrant Android Development] Beefvvl:
Which Launcher are you using?
[Vibrant Android Development] techpreneur:
I had a dash in mine. It was deactivated on shutdown, checked it with adb, installed 1.6, removed it, reboot, works perfect.
[Vibrant Android Development] D-REW:
Hey, I am trying to do the lagfix for 1.6 w/ UV Kernel using these steps:

EXT2 lag fix for NON-VOODOO roms (optional)

How-to enable Lag Fix

adb shell

su

mv /system/bin/userinit.sh /system/bin/used

reboot

After reboot...do this....

adb shell

su

busybox dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/dataimg bs=1024 count=1048576 (this transfer takes roughly 3 minutes, be patient!)

busybox mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0

busybox losetup /dev/loop0 /data/dataimg

busybox mkfs.ext2 /dev/loop0

mkdir /data/data1

mv /system/bin/used /system/bin/userinit.sh

reboot

but once I type "mv /system/bin/userinit.sh /system/bin/used" and hit enter, it says:

failed on '/system/bin/userinit.sh' - No such file or directory

can anyone help with this please?
[Vibrant Android Development] spacemonkey333:
Love the ROM, but definitely the worst battery life that I have ever had...luckily I am always near a place to keep it charged
[Vibrant Android Development] cky71321:
Just flashed the rom this morning - works like a charm. Hoping to give you a donation when I get paid next week :)

Now, here's a strange problem I've run into. It's not so much with Bionix itself, but with random apps. I had to redownload the Battle.net Mobile Authenticator because I use it to play StarCraft 2 - except now when I try to run it, it comes up with a European serial number. Let's just say that I'm not from Europe and it doesn't work. Suggestions, anyone?
[Vibrant Android Development] killster:
From what i have found it just looks for a folder or file with disable and lagfix in the same name..

ie,. changing disable lagfix to disable lagfix.old to enable, will not work.

Therefor the - doesnt matter either. folder/file doesnt matter .

su

cd Voodoo

touch "disable lagfix"

works every time... then delete to re-enable the voodoo

Anyone know where I can find the morth theme to get the stock SWYPE skin?

There used be a thread in the themes & apps forum, but it looks like there is only morph skins for SWYPE with voice input now. I can't find the post that had morph skins for the non-voice input version of SWYPE.

I swear I used both forum search and Google and cannot find it now. :(

Eventhogh this ROM is super nice and pretty, I just can't live with all the Bugs. Going back to 1.4, was a much better ROM IMO.
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
Agreed, I just did the wipe bat stats again to try and see if its this rom or not. I ran out of power before getting home from work last night, that is a first time and I think I used the phone slightly less than usual. Very nice rom though, really love bionix roms.
[Vibrant Android Development] BabyBoi.JN:
Been playing around pushing files to the /system/app folder on 1.6... and it said there was not enough space. Which is fine because I can install the file using the Packager.

Just wondering if there was a limit to how much you can push into the /system/app folder.
[Vibrant Android Development] killster:
This worked for me, i instantly found swype themes that i liked.

easy to use.

Good luck sir,
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
As far as battery goes, I don't think it is this ROM. I read in Eugene's thread that Eugene himself was going back to JI2 modem because he was getting horrible battery with JI4/JI5/JI6 modems. The thing is, he also mentioned changing the GPS to reflect the modem change. I am going to test and let you guys know what I find.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Yep...I'd been wondering about that one for a while too. I finally found an answer many pages back.

Simply skip that first command, as there's already a "used" file where it needs to be. That is, start your commands at "busybox dd if=/dev/sero...." and continue on from there.
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
That's the case in the JAC kernels at least.

su

mkdir -p /sdcard/Voodoo/disable-lagfix

Should work fine as well, but it creates a directory so you need to use "rm -r" to remove it, or just use root explorer, sufbs, etc..
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Yea, I've actually been doing tests with the JFD and JI2 modem and think I'm going to revert back to one of those in the next update. To be perfectly honest with everyone, I'm convinced that between JFD, JI2, JI4, JI5, and JI6, the JFD modem is the best. One reason, and something everyone should consider, is that all other modems aside from the JFD modem have been from 'leaked' builds. As we all know, leaked builds are great, but definitely come with their issues. From what I've been able to tell so far, with each leaked build, the new modems only increased data through minimally. However, has caused increased battery drain.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
How is this related to Voodoo? I wouldn't think that changing the filesystem would effect the accelerometer, could be wrong.

I had the same issue, reflashing worked for me. It shouldn't make a difference but I did do a manual wipe.
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
actually my battery along with setcpu altering reaches 19 hours sometimes.. i have proof... the problem is the freezing of the phone when left in sleep mode or after being unplugged from the charger. The modem gave me 2gb faster download speeds..
[Vibrant Android Development] thenikeman:
I FINALLY found a fix/solution for the GPS...

[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Lemme ask this than, will it cause any issues if I flash the JFD modem found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=785033&highlight=JFD+Modem

directly over the 1.6 ROM with the Posted GPS fix applied?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
haha, I lol'd
[Vibrant Android Development] Jdom58:
^^^^ Thanks for the follow up Sombio :)
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Hold off on flashing anything. I want to run some more tests. Viral is running some tests too. However, I definitely believe there are standby issues with the JI6 modem.
[Vibrant Android Development] willcwells:
Perhaps I misunderstood, but I thought this rom had the voice input version of swype. However, that's not the case for me. I have the voice input swype file on my sdcard, can I just flash it over this?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Yes, my point exactly. You MAY have bettery data through, but would you rather have a slight increase in data through or stability with above average data through?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
/nod

Roger That. Just thought I could give it a go and see if I noticed any differences in battery life/data. I will let you do your testing and wait to hear back.

Thanks again for such an awesome ROM btw. I got no complaints. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
It did but I took it out. The swypecore file in the lib folder was causing instability issues and FCing swype for some people. Its not a problem with the rom, I believe its the file. Others have reported it even on other phones.
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

Thanks for this rom.

It saved my phone.

After doing the tmobile update my phone was stuck at the vibrant screen.

I pushed and flashed your rom and the phone is back up.

This is the version that I used: Bionix 1.6 w/stock kernel

I don't have any sleep issues as other have reported.

No overclocking and no lag fix.

The rom runs very nice.

Thanks.

Great work.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
O clearly i want good data but most important is to have the phone running consistently and if the problem is within the new modem then maybe I won't use the rom's with J16.. but i think it may be the kernal/overclocking. I'm a notch up from a noob so I hope I was clear there lol *leave space for error*
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Dude not to be a **** but you should seriously read and fully understand what you are doing before you start screwing around with your $500 phone. First, you didn't read about certain hardware limitations of overclocking, and 2nd you didn't follow the cardinal rule about flashing when using voodoo. Had you read up on overclocking are understood that not all devices can handle the OC then you wouldn't be in the mess that you're in and you would've known how to fix it. Overclocking has it's own thread and Voodoo also has it's own thread. Go take a look at them. And just like that, my daily rant is complete.
[Vibrant Android Development] creator2456:
If the issue is arising from the leaked JI6 wouldn't the OTA JI6 help the issues. Is there a dump of the OTA update yet?
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
you did exactly what you said you weren't going to do. If you would have practiced what you've preeched, you would see that I got advice on the situation and right after posting the question I saw the answer on page 1 after panicking then regretted posting... at least I didn't make a new thread. How about you waste your energy somewhere else and rant Moran
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Use GPS Status and clear your GPS data. Then reboot and then go for a short drive and your Vibrant will start to see satellites. I wiped again last night and tried another GPS test on the way to work this morning and it sucked for the first 2 or 3 minutes but once as soon as it saw 5 sats it locked and never let go. I eventually had 9/12 sats locked.

On a side note - I noticed a difference between the GPS that came with 1.6 and the fix. Before the fix i saw and locked 8/8 sats. But 8 seemed to be the max. This morning I saw 13 at one point but at most had 10/12. They both took the same amount of time to lock from a cold start but once locked they're both as accurate as any other gps system out there.

Thanks for the hard work. I was hoping you'd do something with voodoo and you did.

I'm reading through these reponses and hope it subsides a bit. People are just anxious to get some good **** running on their phones and you were the first to include voodoo in your roms. Hopefully they'll try to read the OP first before rapid firing their already answered questions.

Thanks again.

It looks nearly identical to 1.2 with exception of the sub menu's and drop down are all nice and black. Oh and Swype has a nice black theme to it as well. Worse case scenario if you don't like it you can simply apply the update that Sombionix posted in the first post.

Login to Facebook is failed. It did not happen in Bionix 1.2. I flashed both Voodoo and Kingklick versions to test. Do I need to download Facebook app to fix the login issue? Thanks. The black theme is awesome, really brings up the beauty of Samsung Super AMOLED screen. You are da frecking bomb.

I would like you guys opinion on the Voodoo and the Kingklick...Are they basically some kind of lag fixes? Thanks. Are there any difference between the two and the stock Bionix?

Please dont flame me :( I wish i could take my stupidity haha
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Holy smurf nuts batman! I went from 1.2 w/lagfix, to 1.3 w/no lagfix, and noticed a bit of lag so I flashed the 1.3 voodoo version and ZOMG this thing is smoking fast.

Great work somBX!
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
Yes it is quite safe. Just follow the instructions in the Voodo thread very very carefully, reading it several times over. I did not try and flame you thats why I apologized up front, in fact you provided me with a smile and I wanted to thank you in return. It was just funny that you missed the very clear "no voodo" part of his post ;)

Just tested the integrated facebook, twitter, and myspace login and everything was fine on my phone. Try rebooting your phone once.

As far as I know, kingklicks kernel does not have a lagfix, however, its OC and UV which is very nice as far as power consumption. I've been running Kings for a few hours now and its very smooth.
