I have to say..i updated to the new JI6 OTA from Bionix 1.7, and I had to comeback to bionix 1.7, this ROM is just too awesome...great work with this, truly amazed with the overall feel and look.
[Vibrant Android Development] smutek:
OK, just flashed 1.4 with stock kernal and Pandora seems to be working now. Its gotten through 3 songs so far with no issues where before on 1.7 / jacs and 1.4 / kings it played 3o seconds Max before freezing the system.

Kernal issue I guess?
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
Thanks for the info. Did it work for you? Or did you flash the JI2 modem?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Just so everyone knows, I'm going to be looking at all the reported bugs tonight and re-coding some things. Hopefully have another release out in a day or two.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Dude, don't know what to say.. you are awesome :)
[Vibrant Android Development] blackoakx22:
Thanks but I was in a rush I couldn't search. But thanks though for the info
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
I do what I can ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
Did you figure this out? Same thing happened to me, at this point you should follow the instructions in the OP about how to flash Froyo and then downgrade to stock. Really it probably just needs repartition but better safe than sorry (don't forget to leave it unchecked for Froyo and then checked for stock).
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
Awesome news... thanks for the hard work at making my phone fantastic....
[Vibrant Android Development] cstyle1013:
I wonder if people with the larger nand are people that bought the phone right when it came out.

Master how is your battery life? I have followed the steps to recondition but my battery is still miserable. I could go 2 full days on vibrant hyprid r2 but I lost 7% just shopping in Publix on this rom. Any suggestions.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
I don't think this is Voodoo. This has happened to me though, try reflashing and telling rom manager to go ahead and wipe (I know it seems extraneous but it seemed to fix my problem when plain reflashing didn't). If that doesn't work, Odin flash to stock and then flash to 1.7.
[Vibrant Android Development] blackoakx22:
I guess i will try it with voodoo enabled if not then I will just disable it. But hell all this disabling voodoo to do stuff kinda gets annoying but I love voodoo its so much faster
[Vibrant Android Development] jesus752:
When I go To wipe my battery stats i don't get any sort of message that confirms they were wiped. Am i suppose to? Ty.
[Vibrant Android Development] doubleohseven:
i tried that too, didnt help. i posted earlier that changing the lockscreen to andriod, turning off usb debugging, and unplugging my phone from my computer while re-enabling voodoo did it for me. not sure which one of these steps fixed it but orientation works perfect now.
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
That just means it worked. If you get an error, then it did not work. Ive never seen an error message before so I wouldn't know what the error msg says, lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] jesus752:
Thank you!
[Vibrant Android Development] andyjang8944:
Messaging/Puzzle Notification update?

Hey Sombionix! I really like your ROM! But I really miss the puzzle piece notification for sms/mms and the bubble chat thing. The black messaging theme kinda sucks to be honest...Can you fix that? It had that in 1.6..:(
[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
It was probably just the reboot TBH. Dunno for sure, glad to hear it's working.
[Vibrant Android Development] Rekarra:
The puzzle piece notification has been fix, search the thread for it.

As to the messaging theme. . . This is was we have to work with for now if you want to be able to send and receive mms messages. If you don't like how it looks, I suggest getting Handcent.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Because kies is for european phones? I.e.- i9000. If you have kies, you didn't get it from samsung usa. It wasn't designed for the vibrant's so it may not work for everything. The i9000 is similar enough for some things to work but because the vibrant isn'to exactly the same as the international version some features are likely to not work. This is just my take on it. I could be wrong. Just use google to back up your contacts, that's what I do.
[Vibrant Android Development] SeanFloyd:
Just wanted to say that after my first full day with 1.7 Voodoo/J2 Modem this ROM is AMAZING. Outstanding mix of speed and battery life. Couldn't ask for more, praises due to Bionix, Master and Viralblack.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
perhaps a tad too much so at times, even given the detritus one sees in all these posts...
[Vibrant Android Development] pepsidrinker:
I just installed: bionix17_OCUV_VOODOO_JI6MODEM

I was using 1.5 with patches etc.... Everything was working fine :-)

I like using the Andriod keyboard, I installed: GPS-MMS-Video.zip. I kinda' liked the keyboard in this ZIP compared to the keyboard in 1.7, is there anyway to load that "skin/theme" ?

I disabled VooDoo Lag fix and flashed! Everything worked fine. Once I booted up I used Titanium Backup to restore a few apps. I've used this before to restore apps and mms. However this time TI does not restore by sms/mms messages. Not a BIG deal....but if anyone has an idea I am open to suggestion.

My "bigger" problem is I get a FORCE CLOSE when I try to set my wallpaper to the stock andriod Blue Sea Live Wallpaper.

Here is the error:

"The Application Blue Sea (process com.tat.livewallpaper.bluesea) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

I also get this on other live wallpapers....

I am using LauncherPro version 47
[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
Known issue with Live wallpapers.

On a different note, does removing TouchWiz mean we can run a sane Bluetooth stack?
[Vibrant Android Development] willcwells:
The dev took the voice to text version of swype out of the rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
The reason that Titanium didn't restore the messages is because this is a different mms.apk than previous builds. The live wallpapers is a known issue that is being worked on.
[Vibrant Android Development] Passat80:
I had the rom with JI2 installed and just flashed JI6 modem, for the better signal, so I was wandering if I need to recondition my battery again.

Vibrant, Bionix 1.7, UVOC kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
I can upload the stock keyboard if you really want it
[Vibrant Android Development] willcwells:
For those asking about the voice to text. I just flashed the voice to text swype over the rom and it's working fine. As a matter of fact I am posting this with it.
[Vibrant Android Development] pepsidrinker:
grendel905, Not sure if I want the "stock" andriod keyboard.... I did like the keyboard from the GPS-MMS-Video.zip fix. It had a gray colored keyboard.

Thanks guys for such FAST responces! WOW! I have been using and loving XDA for some time now. I went from HTC HD2 to Samsung Vibrant! I really like using Andriod.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Not sure it would help. sombionix mentioned that he and other devs have pinpointed the JI6 modem as being a battery drainer. That's why the JI2 modem was included in 1.7. See the changelog in the OP:

Bionix 1.7:

- Complete JI6 build

- JI2 modem re-added to fix battery drain issue caused by JI6 modem

- GPS fixed - locks 10 sats on average within 6 seconds based off tests

- Market lag fixed - updated to froyo 2.2 market

- Call connect/disconnect tones fixed, no more FC issues

- Stealth Page Indicators

- Startup/Shutdown Sounds

- MMS picture send/receive fixed - added AOSP 2.1 mms, re-skinned by viralblack (awesome job!)

- Setcpu fix - no wake lag/wake death if clocks set properly @ 200/1200 conservative - do not check set on boot. You must reset manually after each reboot.

- Audio player and volume fixed - proper volume and plays through headphones.

- Upgraded ROM Manager and Google Voice apps

- Stock keyboard fixed/upgraded - voice to text function accurate, re-skinned black (by viralblack)

- Major coding overhaul to fix other bugs and increase speed.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
You can't post just the .apk file for this. It needs the swypecore files as well. It may be working for you right now, but you will encounter problems with this without those files.
[Vibrant Android Development] willcwells:
Well, hell. I thought I had it all figured out.
[Vibrant Android Development] Rodriguez92:
Hey can someone post the original camera apk from the JI6 build? Is that safe to do with this rom? i kinda liked that one better
[Vibrant Android Development] chemicalbrad:
I got the same thing. 6/27/10 is the date on the box.:(
[Vibrant Android Development] PanzramWhite:
The voodoo log is saying the same thing for me. I was really looking forward to seeing what kind of boost it would give me. Does anybody have a solution?
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
And... yeah this fixes it. For all of you who are flashing the voodoo mod but getting the message in the log saying incompatible device, you may want to follow the instructions in the first post about flashing the eugene froyo rom, then revert to stock + repartition. Lol, SomBX mentioned this hours ago and most of us didn't listen. **facepalm** Thanks for posting that also Mav.

**NOTE** Noobs- please be careful when using odin. Read the instructions then read them a 2nd and third time.
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
I Installed 1.3 w/Voodoo OC and it is running great with out a hitch, though my Quadrant scores are 1759 w/o 1.2 OC and 1871 with 1.2 OC. What are other getting?

What is KingKlick and what difference does it over Bionix 1.3/Voodoo?

:):)Again as always, great work SomBionix!! :):)
[Vibrant Android Development] pinoiryder:
I know this might be a stupid question..

Phone is stock.. Only have it rooted.. did not install any lagfix.. so all i need to do is falsh thru clockworkmod.. an i restore my back up after doing the flash?
[Vibrant Android Development] pinoiryder:
I know this might be a stupid question..

Phone is stock.. Only have it rooted.. did not install any lagfix.. so all i need to do is flash thru clockworkmod.. can i restore my back up after doing the flash?
[Vibrant Android Development] rakeshchn:
I am getting 1700 without over clock. Not planning to OC
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
I was running stock + rooted and all I did was flash Bionix1.3 through clockwork and all was well. I'm new to modding and I still can't believe how easy it was. I did a titanium backup of all apps before flashing. It took about a minute and a half to get all my apps back with a Titanium restore after flashing.

This ROM ROCKS, you'll love it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Lunatixz:
Thanks... I don't see why you would need to odin the froyo flash, isn't that for the EUR verson of the galaxy?

If I odin with stock flash and skip froyo, it should be fine... right?
[Vibrant Android Development] rakeshchn:
Has been testing few things on ver 1.3...wifi, tethering, GPS, maps, camera etc. No issues at all. Booting is faster and everything is very snappy. Black theme looks gorgeous!

Market is giving a problem. Downloads section gives server error (even after re-booting a few times). I read somewhere else about this but can't remember the fix. Anyone?
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
Yeah like 10% of the posts in this thread are about their phone not being compatible or something with the voodoo kernel. I gave up for now and using the one with stock kernel and the adb shell method lagfix. Im happy for now, although I should have tried the "other" kernel, lol....

Next weekend if I decide to spend another day or so at it I might try one last time to get the voodoo on my phone. For now Im liking this rom just the same. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
Log out of your gmail and back in, and see if that helps. Not sure how to do that, but I read that this helps with market problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] xalucardx:
I forgot to disable voodoo lag fix and tryed to install a rom , got the error, so I fixed a easyer way , in recovery I did "adb push diasble lagfix /sdcard/voodoo" then rebooted the phone , it booted fine , intalled terminal with no problem and checked the /data partition ,(ext 2) lag fix was disabled., so went in recovery and installed again and everything is working fine so far
[Vibrant Android Development] rakeshchn:
Just cleared the cache and it solved the market problem...that was easy:)

No issue so far!! Great job sombionix!!
[Vibrant Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Agreed , it didn't make sense to me either. I tried flashing back flash and that didn't seem to do the trick for me. I couldn't get the ext4 created until I tried flashing eugenes froyo, and let it fudge during the reboot. Seems crude but it's effective.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
After a few hours of trying and half giving up on this phone and calling it another brick, I discovered what was wrong with the flash.

I disabled the lag fix as the instructions stated, checked mount and no longer had a xxx04 partition, I had an xxxxx03, which was neither a 2 or 4 so knowing I had the instructions to the tee I went ahead with it, flashed in Odin, reflashed, flashed again, long story short its stuck on download mode and refuses to acknowledge when Odin starts no matter what ROM I try.

@sombionix, the instructions have "disable-lagfix" in the instructions, which doesnt work :P "disable lagfix" with a space, not a dash.

Second, if anyone has any idea how to force odin to write, it wont flash either the Froyo or Stock images now, it just sits at cache.rfs and does nothing eternally. I can access download mode fine, just nothing else but that and the pc (!) phone screen.

After about 70 different combinations and attempts, I got the stock image to flash to the phone, it boots and after the boot animation chokes, it does go into recovery but cant flash or format the data partition. Ideas?

HOLY SUCCESS BATMAN! After trying about literally 50 times to flash it, I noticed that it only flashed when it wanted to, sometimes yes sometimes no. So I stubbornly kept trying the froyo ROM in Odin and eventually it just did it! Followed the process and got it done! Now to reinstall everything >.>
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
Boo... Device isnt compatible. At least I didnt corrupt my HD or loose my SD contents. Back to JAC OC Kernel w/ Tayutama Lagfix
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
I use disable-lagfix as Linux does not like spaces so there has to be something between the two words. I had no issues with Voodoo disabling itself using them method outlined by the OP.

glad you got it reflashed :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Yep, about threw it at the wall, but I got it lol
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Just flashed with the Voodoo Kernal. No issues so far. been testing a few things so far. Market seems to be good, ran quadrant (I know not accurate) but its been floating around 1700.

I installed:

Wifi Teather

ADW Launcher

Facebook

Dropbox

Tweetdeck

Better Keyboard

FlightTracker Pro

Linda File Manager

and none have seen issues. Awesome work VERY snappy and fast!!! VERY happy with this rom. Thank you for your work, and that goes without saying thanks to ALL the devs involved
[Vibrant Android Development] Passat80:
Thanx for the reply, but I know about the battery drain issue and since I'm constantly in my car driving it doesn't bother me that much if I have to charge the phone couple of times a day. Plus I'm sure that, before too long Bionix will find a solution to this problem as well.

IN BIONIX WE TRUST :))))

Vibrant, Bionix 1.7, UVOC kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] Oxirane:
I've been getting the call volume issue... Did anyone ever solve that?
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
I believe you are looking for the stock android keyboard with the grey keyboard. Here it is. To install, just adb push to /system/app.
[Vibrant Android Development] Passat80:
I've always had that issue, not rom related. If the cal volume is too low for you,you can just try activating the HAC mode in call settings......now that's LOUD!!

Black butter, melted butter... whats next "caramelized butter"? lol

EDIT: Oh by the way som.... THANKS FOR GIVING US A FEMALE VOICE AT START UP. My brother just about crapped his pants and broke his face with a smile from ear to ear when he heard that.... THANK YOU!
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
irradiated butter >.>
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Another thing is there was a message from XDA about Swype being copyrighted and only to be cooked in and not to be posted alone, they are considering it "warez".

Just a heads up ...

Point 2: Anybody that thinks the guys that develop this stuff are being rude with people in the thread, well ... simple if you don't like the attitude no one is begging you to be here.

I think they are very gracious considering there are A LOT of people that come into the thread expecting to be spoon fed the answers.

XDA is a Dev site when it is all said and done, not a "hand holding", "sugar coating" , "I'm new so just gimme the answer", site.
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
hahahahaha LOL, sounds awesome, me wants some irradiated butter now
[Vibrant Android Development] Rekarra:
Made my day :D
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
Yes you are bricked, same thing happen to me, there was no recovery nor download mode, it happen because you interrupted the process somehow, and the installation didn't go through, there is no fix for this.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
You're not bricked unless you can't get into download mode. Follow the instructions in the OP for flashing Froyo->stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] richan90:
The UV/OC Kernel has problems for some users when playing back music through Pandora. Apparently the undervolting is a little too much for some phones.
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
the problem is that it won't go into download mode, there is no recovery nor download mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] renardk764:
I just completed my second full day on 1.7 w/voodoo. Battery life was14.5 hours of mixed moderate to heavy use. I haven't had any of the issues posted by other users.

As I understand it, task killers are generally a bad idea as Android constantly monitors and kills those non-essential programs running after a predetermined time of no activity. I noticed that memory usage doesn't clear up unless I run a task killer. Could there be something inhibiting Androids ability to kill inactive processes. Or am I totally off base?

BTW, love the new website and it's layout. Very intuitive and user friendly.

Bionix Vibrant after a less than enjoyable 6 months with the BeHold 2:cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
ADB still activates in that type of brick, you simply use it to get back there.

Its not as much a recovery science, but an art. Theres a way, because you able to turn the phone on. ;)

Find a way to make it work, key combinations, pulling battery, flashing, retrying. Youll get there
[Vibrant Android Development] vapotrini:
I just soft bricked my phone trying to wipe battery stats. I removed lag fix and did the wipe. Then upon restarting my phone gave me the black screen with the 4 white keys lit up. I then tried to oden back to stock which i've done a few times before but this time it wasn't successful. Gave me an error in red "cannot wipe device" and quit out.

I then tried to get into download mode but of course my phone is hard locked so I haven't been able to get it there. The only way for me to get into download mode was via "adb reboot recovery", which of course does not work now. As I'm sure USB debug mode was removed somewhere in the process.

Worse part is, I don't even live in the US so I dunno wtf i'm gonna do.
[Vibrant Android Development] adm1jtg:
I completely agree perseverance is the key. I have got to the point I thought I had bricked a few times, basically if the phone turns on you can likely recover it.

As far as hardware locked I believe they have found a software based solution to fix that. Search the threads for that as will make you life way easier in the future
[Vibrant Android Development] winhwah:
This instruction from Maverick777 works for me.

1. Pull the battery

2. Start Odin

3. Hold down the volume keys

4. connect USB cable (continue holding volume keys)

5. put battery back in (continue holding volume keys)

Got my phone bricked earlier today then got it back by following the Fixe1 from sombionix @ the OP page.

Follow everything step by step and you should be back in business like me :D
[Vibrant Android Development] SeanFloyd:
seriously, this is the most interaction with a female many of us have had our entire lives
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
I tried adb reboot download but it says device not found, my computer just won't even recognize the mass storage, tried every single key combination and nothing, i was reading that if you flash with a lagfix installed this will happen and that some new devices have this problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:
Nah, you can fix that. Had that happen to me too. Simply get back into Download mode, flash Eugene's "Froyo Rom that does not brick" than flash you're stock image. It's just a soft brick.

If you can't get into Download mode follow these directions, works for me every time.

1- Open Odin V1.3

2- Power down your phone.

3- Pull the battery.

4- Connect the usb cable to your phone.

5- Connect the usb cable to your computer.

6- Hold down the Power, and BOTH volume up and down all at the same time.

7- While holding down all three buttons, put your battery back in. (Watch your screen, while you do this).

8- A small swirly will show up on the screen, as soon as the screen goes black, release the power button only.

9- You should now be in Download mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
you just have to be VERY VERY EXACT with this proceedure.

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...r-vibrant-and-return-to-stock-phone-pc-error/

take a shot, chillax, and try again
[Vibrant Android Development] richan90:
ADB should always be possible when you can get to the Vibrant and Galaxy S boot screen. Make sure your drivers are properly installed and your USB cable is connected directly to your PC (no hub). Keep trying you'll get there!

When you do recover it, you should probably flash the recovery/download fix that I linked in my sig. It's a lifesaver.
[Vibrant Android Development] Reyland:
i try to install the original samsung mms.apk because i like it better than aosp mms but keeps getting erros,any help?? i did it with final twiz rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
*facedesk*

MAYBE there was a reason we removed it lol
[Vibrant Android Development] vapotrini:
Wish that would work for me but no luck. Trying so many variations but I just have to suck it up and realize that I'm not gonna get this phone into download mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] ardchoille:
+1

Folks, stuff isn't being removed just for the heck of it.. there's a reason for it.
[Vibrant Android Development] SkOrPn:
Wish I had a nickel for every time I heard that.... Oh wait, I said that too... :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
Viralblack you have saved my little ass, thanks for this, it worked perfectly, now Odin is flashing back to stock.
