Puzzlelock screen?

Hey everyone... I really like the puzzlelock screen. Is there any way to get just the puzzlelock screen? I know about the mods that are out there, but all of them change the notification bar, and I like the look of macnut12 notification bar and battery. I just want to add the puzzle lock screen... Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks...

benchmark meaningless?

I've heard alot of XDA members state to ignore the benchmark scores, and that's completely cool, but can anyone elaborate as to why the numbers are meaningless? I'm simply interested to know why...

I am having a problem with my wifi disconnecting as soon as I try to connect to any server. Is anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?
[Vibrant Android Development] shuka325:
Thanks, got it up and running. Sorry for the clutter.
[Vibrant Android Development] azzy12:
To those of you with "flawless" gps performance, can you make sure you are not on the wifi and run gps test ?

If it's still flawless what kind of lbstest setting are you using ?
[Vibrant Android Development] Senorkabob:
Anyone still noticing issues with the notifications bar getting stuck?
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
Benchmark numbers represent speed of performing some specific operations (I guess related to filesystem or database calculation) that don't really affect operation system performance because they are not slowest operations causing lags. If such operation took 3ms or 2ms to complete scores will differ but it won't affect the real performance because it's already fast enough.
[Vibrant Android Development] swehes:
The reason to why it is "meaningless" in people's mind here is because both the Quadrant and Linpack are optimized for the Snapdragon type of processors. With us using the Hummingbird therefor are going to get lesser scores due to the different processor.

If the ROM is running smoothly and are performing nicely, than use that.

So in other words the benchmarks favors the Snapdragons.
[Vibrant Android Development] greenstuffs:
My first attempt with this rom had a really bad battery life, i mean i went down from 70% to 20% in like 2 hrs. I am reinstalling after wiping everything to see if it improves.
[Vibrant Android Development] Shrivel:
That's part of it, but the biggest reason is because those numbers don't necessarily represent real world performance of the phone. Obviously, if a phone gets a high benchmark score it's gonna be more likely to perform better on everyday tasks, but the reverse is NOT true. Just because the score is low doesn't mean that a phone won't perform as well, if not better than, phones scoring higher.
[Vibrant Android Development] swehes:
My battery life isn't that bad. However I noticed that my battery life decreased significantly flashing from the Stock Froyo to R12. On Stock I could go the whole day and still almost have 50% life left of the battery. On R12 I can't go throughout the day.

What is the difference between the two when it comes to battery life?
[Vibrant Android Development] agmz86:
I reset my battery stats but my battery life is still horrible is there anything else that can be done to better battery life
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
Battery life is poor.

Reconditioned and still the same old song.

I've also noticed some lockups on the status bar and the phone in general.

Elegant ROM, but I may have to revert to Obsidian V3 for now.
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
Cyanogen if I remember correctly posted how easy those scores can be doctored. For example he changed a file or two and make the quadrant score off the charts.. doesn't mean rom is fast on the said device.
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
kernels mostly but other visual changes too.

Maybe try one of the kernels Eugene posted.
[Vibrant Android Development] hypersonicx:
Im also on R12 and im experiencing the worst battery performance I have ever seen on my Vibrant.

Also noticed a glitch in the notification bar where I couldnt pull it down. Had to do a softreset to get the notification bar to pull all the way down.

I like the performance of the rom, but this is the worst battery performance to date. 100% to 85% while the screeen was off lol.

Also noticed an improvemant in the data connection. I can keep a 3G connection all day where as on some roms I have to switch to airplane mode on / off to get my 3G back.
[Vibrant Android Development] samyvibrantuser:
+1 i agree with this. Also the main reason why we (or atleast me) flash ROM is to get optimized snappier interface and of course the hardware definitely adds more to it.

i can say my wife's MyTouch3GSlide opens screens quick and feels snappier than Vibrant sometimes even though its only 600 MHz Qualcomm MSM7227 as compared to 1000 MHz Hummingbird Cortex A8. IMO its how optimized the ROM is as compared to scores..
[Vibrant Android Development] swehes:
Battery life from 56% to 9% in 30 minutes.

I just went out to post a box. I turned on the GPS to see how it does. I had to reboot the phone and my phone dropped to 9% battery life. That was just plain insane. Do we know why this is going on?
[Vibrant Android Development] m00nshake:
Thanks for taking the time to explain this. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] m00nshake:
got it... Thanks as well for taking the time to respond. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
about battery life

So after running my phone dead last night, I plugged it in charged overnight to 100% and have been running System panel and Battery left to see what kind of life I get out of it.

I'm a moderate user, play some angry birds, text all day and at times a short phone call or two. Battery left is showing 11:23 full battery life and as I type this point I'm at 69% battery which says should last till 9:08pm at that point it will be dead, if I continue the same use. I unplugged my phone about 7:30 this morning.

From here I'm going to try a4 or a5 kernel now that i have an idea of what the stock kernel with r12 is giving.
[Vibrant Android Development] Henchmin:
Kernel enbkernel2.2kang1-3.zip will break your phone if you try to reboot into recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] Henchmin:
The only issue I am having with this ROM is the phone is slow to wake up from sleep. Any quick fix for this?
[Vibrant Android Development] Klyentel:
Wow...a lot of battery life posts going here, thankfully mines is great.

Any chance I can get a link to R11 if anyone has it? Never got a chance to download it before it got took down and I keep reading good comparisons of it against R12.

I'm happy with R12 quite frankly, but I would like to try R11 for myself to see what all the talk is about

@eugene. Do we need a lib and apk for wifi calling to work again? Or is it a kernel thing? Mainly I need it I have a basement apartment so horidly atrocious tmobile reception.thanks. Or if anyone else knows I would be grateful
[Vibrant Android Development] 24861:
WOW!!! I really don't post all that often, not a whole lot to say, but do follow the whole forum quite closely. But Damn!!! This battery issue, makes one of the best.....if not the best...... ROM available, utterly useless. Back to 10 until something gets fingered. BTW.... Thanks Eugene for all the hard work, love it!:D
[Vibrant Android Development] ugokind:
there's a lot of people in obsidian 3d that remenber to prefer that rom

and vice versa

ah ah

the rom are similar!

similar comsumption of battery.. no magic or wonder!

I've tested all for a week and also the newer!

please don't write stupid sentences.. write what are the issues .. hoping that those mans can read them and not fill a lot of pages with tons of judgement that are not useful and make shift the useful post 3 or 4 pages below.. and the masters of the roms cannot read them!

please!

Awsomeness

Hey Great work.

I was wondering if there is a way to port over that lockscreen from AOSPish ROM (froyo lockscreen) and have it work with out the menu key unlocking the screen?
[Vibrant Android Development] 651stp:
This is probably one of the fastest 2.2 froyo roms i've tried till date, i've tried every single one from bionix, onyx, aosp, auxura, gothick. Like everyone has stated though, for me, the battery life is just way to short. i've attatched some screen shots. im not new to flashing roms and wiping batter stats, yes i made sure i recondtioned it, i do everytime. this is the first i have ever seen a battery last for this short of a time.

As you can see accuracy is correct, only been on for 9 hours from last night before i went to sleep. dropped 80%. All this was tested with no wifi, 3g, no apps in background, no gps on. brightness on lowest. the worst part is the phone was on idle 99% of the time while testing. i only used it to install my alarm app and set up the alarm. thats it.

Also the battery status icon in the task bar and the battery widget hasnt matched since first install even though i reconditioned twice. what do you guys think?
[Vibrant Android Development] established:
When i click on display in settings it forcecloses
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
lol this is the truth
[Vibrant Android Development] warsteiner00:
Can someone with working GPS on R12 post hes GPS configuration from LBStestmode?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] KerryG:
I count 3 widgets on that screen, if you have more widgets on other screens that could be what is hurting your battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] badaphooko01:
Did you install any fonts?
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
I run the same widget on each rom I've run and I feel widgets have very impact rom vs rom. R12 is eatting through battery life alot more than say odin 2.2 which after tweaking I could get a day plus out of with the same widgets as I'm running now and will only see 11 hours of battery life out of a charge.
[Vibrant Android Development] johndoe411:
I also have battery life problems, this morning after unplugging from the charger, I measured the battery drain to be 3-4% every 30 minutes. With 2.1 ROMs, I was able to get 1-2%/hr drain rate (being idle).

I also rebooted the phone and make sure no other widgets are running (except Google Voice). With SystemPanel monitoring, I found the system process 'suspend' seems to use the top most used app, at 3% CPU usage right after the phone is unplugged.

I got my Vibrant the first week it's available, and it has the larger NAND.
[Vibrant Android Development] warsteiner00:
Everytime i try to test GPS in lbstestmode, phone dies and i need to pull out the battery and reboot :S
[Vibrant Android Development] qreffie:
Your phone may have an issue with the OC kernel. You might have to go back to R11. Eugene said he was working on some non-OC kernels after he released this.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikey98277:
If you have any of the custom flipfonts found on xda, some of them do not work with 2.2, uninstall them all and add them back one by one, try to open the display settings to find out which ones are causing it, or i suppose you could uninstall one by one and keep checking also, to find out which ones is causing the issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] qreffie:
I use the same settings that were posted in the pic about 30 pages back or so:

Supl.google.com

Port: 7276

Supl on

It takes one or two minutes to get my first lock of the day, but after that all locks are near instant.

facebook contact issue?

does anybody else have issue syncing with facebook contacts??? i was using obisidian v3 before and i just wanted to try macnut R12 but for some reason it won't sync the contacts from facebook.... and now i see H next to my reception bars.. does this mean i have HSPA+ on my phone now? before i flashed it.. it was on 3G but after flashing to macnut r12 it says H on it and i just ran couple websites and compared it against G2 but it seems like it's faster than G2 any thoughts?
[Vibrant Android Development] sroach23:
this rom is fast, but the battery life is horrible.
[Vibrant Android Development] gozilar84:
Yeah..R12 i think it has the batter life issue compare to R10

I used the same app which is PowerAMP for music as my daily activity just like 1 hour more in total of a day and facebook widget; fancy widget (auto refresh 2hour); with maybe half hour internet surft, the battery remain 25 to 30%..set on conservative clock 100to1200

and the setcpu as the oldtime can't add profile; if add, it dead need to pull battery.

I just have a silly request about the bootanimation, can we have the R10 that one back. The current modify method in the thread isn't working on mine...it will be easier just place the new bootanimation:D
[Vibrant Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
In the OP it says,User controlled Bootclass Path Via /system/init.rc ( Great For Rom porters ).Doed this mean any rom? I know eugene and barak are porting cm6.I'm wondering would it be possibe to port miui to the vibrant?I've read alot of good things about it and I heard its one of the fastest 2.2 roms out there.
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
I want to flash r12 tonight coming from Masters Axura 2.0. can anyone comment on if either internal of external sd got wiped when they flashed this from another 2.2 rom?

on the other forum a member said his external got wiped going to R11...
[Vibrant Android Development] the3dman:
I have not had a problem just replacing the bootanimation.zip in /system/media (no other edits needed) I just pushed my bootanimation.zip and it was good to go.
[Vibrant Android Development] established:
yea I INSTALLED ONE
[Vibrant Android Development] sroach23:
mine did not wipe.
[Vibrant Android Development] traderx2009:
Internal gets wiped. External shouldn't.
[Vibrant Android Development] gozilar84:
I tried that replacement method first with the Droid R2D2 animation. but it didn't work out, then I tried to use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=779718&highlight=bootanimation that one of [ThinkTank]. The first time it worked without using "busybox cp bootanimation2nd playlogos1Now", but after i tried with other one. I think i messed with the playlogos1 file; it gone. When I reboot, there's no moer bootanimation. :(:(
[Vibrant Android Development] sroach23:
yours got wiped? my internal memory was not touched.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikey98277:
Was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some good custom boot animations that work well with our phone/screen size. I looked around but didn't want to use the wrong one, so I figured I would ask all the smart people of this thread. Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] slackerx10:
I tried flashing but somehow the update.zip file is gone and now my phone is almost worthless. Can anyone help me out?

[Vibrant Android Development] traderx2009:
Yeah, every time I've ever flashed one of eugene's roms
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
I agree, the speed is fast but eats battery like a fat kid eats cake!

I use the kernel from Obsidian V3 - Stock kernel w/Voodo ... It maintains the speed if not makes it faster and the battery life is way better! Since its stock kernel you get the good battery life of the stock kernel, 11 to 13 hrs with average usage! and the speed is as good. Best of both worlds!
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Yeah where going to Make a Stock Kernel build with CwM Recovery..

Barak is Doing that tonight I think.
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
That would be great... Always love your work and your dedication to the Android scene!

Thanks to you & Barak
[Vibrant Android Development] samyvibrantuser:
I was going flash Axura 2.0.3 - or Obsidian V3 - JK2 but when i read your message i thought i would wait for the Stock Kernel ......:)

here's the another example. 5PM battery shows 100 i start Pandora and get home around 630 battery shows 70 and turn off Pandora and see at 830 as i am writing its 50 with nothing running..

Looks like something is not really working well...
[Vibrant Android Development] 651stp:
after i odin my phone(soft bricked), im going to try this with obsidian kernal and i'll report back how good it is :)
[Vibrant Android Development] johndoe411:
May I know how did you accomplish this? Did you replace the files zImage and redbend_ua from Eugene's A5.zip with the ones from Obsidian ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] cavinsays:
Although I thought I'd be okay with this, I'm just not. The wifi doesn't work 3/4 the time. The GPS tells me I'm driving on a road a mile away from the one I'm on if I'm riding below 20mph. I'm back on 2.1 JI6 now. Hope the OTA Froyo comes soon...
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
No just download the flashable zip kernel from the Obsidian thread, first post near the end
[Vibrant Android Development] azzy12:
You're using Obsidian V3 - Stock kernel w/Voodoo combined with Macnut R12 ? How stable is it with that mix/match ?
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Yes I am! Very stable, fast and good battery life!

Its not a "mix/match"... The kernel is from the Leaked Stock 2.2 with voodoo added to it and Macnut is primarily built from stock 2.2 if not entirely built from the Leaked 2.2 that eugene released.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Well, Honestly Macnut is Built from the JK2 Frameworks & Lib's, with Mostly & Mainly I9000 APK's & Binary's and other Modded stuff. there's even 2.1 part & part from the Epic / Captivate & other stuff from HTC Phone's :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
So I just added more to this mutt! LOL... I knew you would clear it up eugene!

But the fact remains that Macnut does run fine with Obsidian v3 Stock kernel voodoo, since its from stock
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
I shall for now and forever refer to you has hacksuei! :p
[Vibrant Android Development] mpena0689:
Nice

Did you just flashed the Obsidian Kernel through clockwork sounds like a good idea unless anyone else thinks its not
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Yes that's exactly what I did... Trust me you won't be disappointed
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
Now that's just mean ... why you gotta set people's hopes up like that?

In this thread ... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831906 ... 1st post, toward the end ... those two links ... point to ~180MB zip files. They may say "kernel" in them but those are the complete updates. The first is Obsidian V3 - (with) Stock Kernel ... the second is (with) Stock kernel w/Voodoo.

People, caveat emptor: if you flash either one of these, you are no longer running MacNut R12. You're running Obsidian.

Unless I'm looking at the wrong place (in which case, my apologies, kind sir!), what the dealio?

I think it's best to wait for Barak's latest kernel, per Eugene ... I myself will need it as R12's radio is being awfully unstable (for me at least). The phone is very fast but it has these weird hiccups. Apps freeze, touch buttons go dead, radio crashes, etc, etc.

So, so close!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] johndoe411:
OK, I still don't get how you could flash Obsidian kernel on top of MacNut R12. I looked at the Obsidian thread, it looks like it is a full ROM/kernel zip file. If I flash it in CwM, wouldn't it replace MacNut R12 totally? The Obsidian thread OP also said it will do a full system wipe.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
You can always pull the zimage from the ROM

;)
[Vibrant Android Development] mpena0689:
????

Same here i just tried flashing and i am no longer running Macnut R12 anymore...where did you get just the kernel from?
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
OK, folks, Scrizz is just stating what is possible but that's not what Lakers is claiming. The latter specifically claims he just downloaded the zip and flashed it. *cough* Bullsh*t *cough*. The good news is that flashing Obsidian V3 (w/ or w/o Voodoo) is not irreversible ... it will only rob you of an hour of your life at worst (re-flashing, etc). G*d knows that if you're a regular visitor on this forum, you have already lost several _months_ of your life on this sh*t! Another hour won't kill you, pun intended ... :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Sorry I forgot I did make my own flashable zip... I will upload it and post the link
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
The conspiracy theorist in me suspects this is a conversion ploy ... heed my warning, people. There are infidels who walk among us. You can tell them apart from their breath ... it reeks of whiskey ... (and man juice).

[Vibrant Android Development] Perrosky:
I just installed this rom but when I download an app from the market when the app start to install the phone reboot, I checked the space on the phone sd and external sd and it says 0 like and I don't store anything in my phone so I should have alot of space. When I open the camera app it says Turn off USB storage before using the camera.

I was using one of eugene 2.1 roms, if I flash back to that rom everything it's fine.

Note. I don't have not partition any of my sd card.
[Vibrant Android Development] the3dman:
I believe the boot animations you are referring to are the qmg (samsung propritary) ones, in which case you have to follow the instructions and edit init.rc. The ones I was referring to are bootanimation.zip files (non-propritary) and can just be put in the /system/media folder with no edits needed. Just reflash or restore the rom and just put the bootanimation.zip in there and reboot.
