Still a no go on the mms. I'm not to sure whats going on entirely. I think I can send them but it won't allow me to recieve. It just says "error downloading blahimage from randomwhoever"

Is anyone else having these issues? Mayhaps a reinstall is in order?
[Vibrant Android Development] SeanFloyd:
nm, figured it out. I have the new wallpapers from 1.8 so I guess it worked. Bizarre that I got the line 81 error but still installed the ROM successfully.

History is wiped when you flash. Are you using Titanium Backup? You might have it saved there.

As for your GPS, did you turn off wifi (not wireless networks)? Once I turned it off I got nearly instantaneous locks on 8 or so birds.
[Vibrant Android Development] john22savage:
I installed 1.8 this morning and have been kicking it around a bit. The GPS takes about 3 minutes to get the location within Google Navigator the first time, but after that, it takes less then 3 seconds pretty much every time. Also, there seems to be an issue with auto-rotate. The first time I rotated the phone, everything adjusted to landscape but it would not reset when I turned the phone back to portrait. So, I tapped the power button once, hit it again and unlocked and now it's in portrait but it won't auto rotate back to landscape.

Other than that, everything else I've tested seems to be working great. Again, thanks for all your efforts. This is the best rom anywhere for the Vibrant!!!

Almost forgot, I'm running Bionix 1.8 w/Jacs OC/UV/VOODOO kernel.

I'm able to play 45 minute 720p mkv files with rockplayer (system mode) at a price of around 10% of battery life per file.

I'd say that's a huge improvement, it was around 15-20% with stock.

What is the difference between kingklicks kernel and jacs kernel?
[Vibrant Android Development] jn_vista:
NO not in the least bit!
[Vibrant Android Development] IDtheTarget:
Yep, I had the same problem. I think it was a bad flash.

What fixed this for me:

(In the below steps, don't type the quotes. they're there to show what the commands are that you should type)

01) Attach your phone to your computer

02) start a command prompt on your computer

03) Go to the directory in which you installed adb (look for adb.exe)

04) type "adb shell"

05) ls -a update.zip (check the exact file size)

06) ls -a /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery-update.zip (check the exact file size)

07) if the two sizes are not the same: "cp /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery-update.zip /sdcard/update.zip"

08) type "exit"

09) find the location where you downloaded the bionix rom to your computer

10) type (without angle brackets) "adb push <<bionix rom .zip file>> /sdcard/bionix18.zip" (and wait for it to finish)

11) type "adb reboot recovery"

12) when the phone reboots, use the volume keys to scroll down to "reinstall packages" and press the power button.

13) then scroll down to "install zip from sdcard" and press the power button

14) then scroll down to "choose zip from sdcard" and press the power button

15) then scroll down to "bionix18.zip" and press the power button

16) then be patient. :)

That's how I was able to re-flash the ROM, and now it's working fine.

Hope this helps!

I don't even bother with Quadrant any more. The reason that I still use Voodoo, however, is because I read a lot of epub books on my phone using Aldiko, and with the stock file system it can literally take minutes to load a large book. With Voodoo it's fast, like seconds. for me, that's a deal-breaker.

As far as history is concerned I'm talking about the just created one while on 1.8. Nothing is showing since i've texted and called while being on the 1.8 rom

GPS I'm only getting 6 locks with WIFI OFF, Wireless networks ON or OFF.

I might just reflash

This doesn't make a difference for me. Checked both files and honestly they are the exact same size so I'm not really sure what is being accomplished here. Unless of course you attached the wrong one. LOL

Works fine on 1.8, however it suffers from JI6 call waiting issue - when you are on the call, and you have a call waiting it takes good 5 seconds between you move your phone from your face and the call waiting display.

leftover .zip files?

can i delete the .zip files (i.e. bionix18_KK_OCVU_V3.zip) left on the root after flashing new ROM?

also, is there a way to export all my contacts to gmail? the contacts that were imported from gmail are synced and update auto., however i cant get the contacts that were never imported (the ones on my SD card) into my google account to later be imported back after flashing.

thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Android Development] tswb13:
dang! no idea which 1.8v to use! you make it tough to decide.
[Vibrant Android Development] lqaddict:
The ROM does not format /sdcard and /sdcard/sd so everything you throw in there is still there after the flash, i.e pics, music files, etc.

EDIT: ROM.zip is used once - to flash the new ROM, then you can delete it from your phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] kizer:
Yes Delete away. However I normally leave my roms on my internal memory incase I flash something and then I can always flash back.

Wow is all I have to say about this it is nice to see my batt actually getting some longevity!!

Just downloaded 1.8 for KK and JACs. I asked before the difference between the two and someone replied that JACs was more advanced, but, considering I do not use a lagfix (have not needed one since switching over to Bionix) is there really a difference? I have not noticed one, but are there any arguments for one over the other? Just wondering.
[Vibrant Android Development] lqaddict:
Oh yeah!!! Reboot fixed it, couldn't believe windblows method works wonders on Android :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] kingkesi:
Great work on this ROM. I just flashed 1.8 and just noticed 2 things:

1) At first the low call volume bug appeared to be gone but after a couple of restarts of the phone it came back. Lowering the volume while in a call then turning it back up seems to solve it for the duration of the call, but it comes back once another call is made.

2) The touchtones for the numbers in the dialer don't seem to be recognized when you make a call to any automated telephone response system. For example, I called my bank (capital One) and they ask you to press 1 to proceed. I do so multiple times but the system never recognizes that I pressed the number.

Pretty minor annoyances overall though. Just keep them in mind. Thank you again for the great work!

Edit: Issue #2 only seems to be happening with Cap One..weird. When I try them from a LAN line there's no problem..and when I tried a couple of other automated systems they worked. O well..I'll update if I see this anywhere else.
[Vibrant Android Development] theyownus:
is it possible to get the Stock Accurate Battery Icons by soniqu3 on 1.8? I have searched this thread and all the battery mod threads and found nothing on this. If instructions are out there somewhere i apologize for asking but please point me to them.

TIA
[Vibrant Android Development] lqaddict:
Undervolted/overclocked kernels take the battery life on your phone to a different level. You might not want to overclock, but the undervolt aspect of the kernel supposed to put less strain on the battery drain.

I chose to give it a try on the stock kernel and see what I can do with it, it is just a matter of flashing different ROM now if I want to use different kernel, but as the saying going once you go custom you will never look at stock again :)
[Vibrant Android Development] andeeroid:
Thank you for the answer !!

but I would like to clarify one more thing before I upgrade from Bionix 1.7 to Bionix 1.8, sorry for being such an OCD ass :D

so....to go from 1.7 Bionix to 1.8 Bionix I disable Voodoo first, then do I flash back to STOCK VIBRANT ROM then to 1.8 Bionix? or just flash 1.8 Bionix?

Plus, is there a way to PERMANENTLY disable Voodoo without having /voodoo/disable lagfix installed? just in case I need to warranty out the phone ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Kubernetes:
Hah, same thing happened to me.

A few questions for people:

1) After I installed 1.7 I had to reinstall all my apps via Titanium. Is it normal to lose all apps and data? Forgive my ignorance, but after I installed the JI6 update it kept all my apps and data so I guess I expected the same here.

2) Gmail is not syncing correctly. I can receive email, but I can't send. Also, if I read or delete an email it doesn't sync, so I still have unread notifications. Any ideas on how to fix this?
[Vibrant Android Development] kizer:
once Voodoo is disabled just flash over 1.7
[Vibrant Android Development] badaphooko01:
Cant wait to flash this tonight when i get home from work. Can someone verify the status of their ffc if they have one installed on this Rom. I have mine on order.

[Vibrant Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
Having a very strange issue. I was running 1.7 just fine, then this morning I decided to update to 1.8. The download file mustve gotten corrupted during download bc it failed half way through... so naturally I NANDroided back to my clean 1.7, and now my phone says I have 0.00 kb of internal memory. I cant take pictures, send MMS, or download anything. I was NOT using Voodoo in any capacity on any ROM.

Thoughts?
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
Have you tried re-downloading and then reflashing? Most of the time a reflash takes care of issues.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikey98277:
The only way of making your contacts to google, is to log into gmail or google voice and go to the contacts tab, add them through there, it works if you do it on the phone too, I just find it easier and faster to add them on the web than on my phone. That is the only way I have found to do it, there is a way of importing contacts from outlook and yahoo, but that is done through the computer, so I dont think there is a way to export from sd card.
[Vibrant Android Development] sajche:
Just Flashed this

This is awesome!!

Running: Bionix 1.8 w/Jacs OC/UV/VOODOO kernel

I'm not seeing the problems others are reporting with mms and media player.

for ME. . . . . .

GPS locks are fast, less than 7sec.

Camera and Video work fine.

mms screen lock works though i see two puzzle pieces now.

MMS sending and receiving just fine

Call volume IS fixed

Thanks for the new "Bionix" live wallpaper and new standard wallpapers, enjoying them.

If i disable voodoo and flash over 1.7, does voodoo re-enables after flashing? or do i have to re-enable manually?
[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
I didn't see if this was answered, but the answer is no. You're waiting for Voodoo to convert the filesystem, KK doesn't use this method.

I still have it. You can get an lbstestmode app shortcut from the market to be sure you're not just typing it wrong, otherwise just use GPS Essentials (although it doesn't let you fiddle with the settings).

As far as screen orientation goes I've had this problem since 1.7, reflashing fixes it. I've attached a logcat for when orientation wasn't working (I think the actual accelerometer gets disabled, the older one btw) and one for when it is after reflashing (the newer one). I don't think it's Voodoo because it didn't work with it disabled/enabled/whatever. Not saying it's the ROM either but it would be nice to know what it is.

edit:

Reenable manually by removing/renaming disable-lagfix and rebooting. Read the OP.

[Vibrant Android Development] ebullient:
Double-check your location settings, if you're on geolocation then you need to load maps or lbstestmode or gps essentials or whatever to get an initial lock.

[Vibrant Android Development] Dragoth12:

If you installed a voodoo kernel you already have a lagfix. If you didn't know that already, I am worried about your phone when you try to make a change to it.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
TO EVERYONE THIS APPLIES TO:

1. MMS is working just fine. Texts messages and send/receive images work. STOP reporting this issue, it work fine. As stated in the OP, you need to REBOOT your phone.

2. I put the 2.1 market back for a reason, not for ****s and giggles. The 2.2 market caused certain apps not to show up. For some of you it isn't a big deal, but some people would like to be able to download all of their paid apps.

3. Signing in work just fine! Trust me, I've flashed 1.8 probably more than all of you combined at this point and have signed in every time without any issues.

4. GPS....well, its about as good as its going to get right now. To be honest, I don't see the issue. Last night I was consistently locking onto 9-10 sats within 7 seconds with 3 meter accuracy. INSIDE MY HOUSE SITTING IN THE KITCHEN.

Please, please please please please...before posting a problem REBOOT your phone. Or as a last resort, try reflashing the rom.

The only issue so far that more than a few people have reported has been the video player and I believe its just due to the deodexing compression level. I will have a flashable.zip up later to fix it that doesn't wipe anything. If you want to fix it on your own before I get the update up, just rip out the video player from 1.7 and push it to system/app. It will work then.
