gave R6 3 tries & it bricked 3 times restored with Odin & went back to R5

skipping R6 I give up i tried it 3 times & bricked 3 times i guess there is bad flashes & good flashes because R5 came back on smooth.

Take out your.cam and take a black sharpie or paint pen (perferred) and color in your hole and file your warranty claim no harm no foul. I've done it twice man they don't care if they don't know ;-)
[Vibrant Android Development] epakrat75:
Doesn't matter who it costs / how much as long as it doesn't cost you (much of) anything, right? At least it's not as bad as another guy on here who committed insurance fraud. Thankfully, I don't see Eugene stooping to either of these lows. :rolleyes:

Would anyone mind telling me the best way to revert to the vanilla calendar? I use the calendar a lot for work and I just can't stand the Sammy one.

Is it as easy as finding one from another froyo Rom and deleting this one and replacing it?

Thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
What fixed Data for me was I extracted the JI6 Modem from the ATT Build & I can upload it if people need it, regarding insurance Fraud, well um.... No thanks.

I'm not going to punish & lie to a Company that did nothing wrong, I did this once with my Original mytouch and still feel guilty over it..

I'll be contacting my buddy at TMO today & see if she can get me a discount or something on a new one.

Thank you all for everything..

Try downloading from a different mirror. I noticed that R4 had different file sizes on two different mirrors and one of them resulted in a bad flash. It may not work, but it's worth a shot if you want to flash R6.

Did you do a titanium restore with data? For some reason, I can't get YouTube to work when I do a titanium restore. I did an advanced restore in CW and only restored the data from R5 and now YouTube works like a charm.;)

[Vibrant Android Development] cwalker29:
thanks anyway bro!! i went back to jpm r1 with kernel jpm777 youtube fine on that rom. for some reason that's the only 2.2 rom that works well on my phone.. i like the new **** in eugene latest roms. but they always give me problems.o well on to the nexts!!!

plus it's just too many damn kernels to keep up with that i'm lost right now!! lol
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Experimental Modem..

This is the Modem from the At&t build, be sure to back-up your EFS folder/file's before Flashing... Without them, you may not get Data or Signal.

BEAUTIFUL MAN THANKS!! Sorry bout the phone man i know how much that sucks... bricked two g1s... back in the day lol
[Vibrant Android Development] orells:
You guys make me sound like a douche for paying $150 for an insurance claim... the same amount for cracked screens and lost phones. You really don't have to cover your.hole its just curtesy to return it the way you got it. I pay $5 a month for insurance.and dammit imma use it lol.

(Getting swype back asap. Sorry about the typos.)

Oh and r6 is the ****! Thanks Geno

Didn't the modem brick your phone?
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
Any clues as to my 40% battery drains while I sleep. 6 hours batt drains 40% without being touched.
[Vibrant Android Development] adamcooks:
Thanks for the ROM Eugene! Sorry to hear about your phone, things will always come out in the end. Just flashed R6, FFC works on mirror, and functions on fring, but is rotated 90 clockwise. rotating the phone keeps the image in the same orientation, with autorotate turned either on or off. also getting FC on BT toggle. You do great work, and i cant wait for you to get a new phone. Pepsi in the mail
[Vibrant Android Development] defconoi:
Yea.. I thought that too, but he probably flashed another modem.bin that bricked it. Eugene, can you provide more information on how exactly you bricked your vibrant? Allot of people seem to think odin is the savior to any brickage
[Vibrant Android Development] defconoi:
Im interested in knowing how exactly people restore all their settings after flashing new roms? I use Titanium backup but I find it quite annoying to click install on 40+ apps with it. Anyone have a more automated approach to restoring? Everytime I flash a rom a manually install everything, its kinda annoying. I wish we could somehow mod these roms for no-wipe without breakage lol

Thanks,

defcon
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
how can I odin when the Phone will not even boot at all? I'm not a noob & yes I know you didn't say that at all....

I bricked it due to user error.. Nothing more, nothing less... the advance user does not have to worry about bricking there phone, as I was trying stuff & testing other stuff when i bricked my phone. Lets just call it sleep issue's this morning..
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
It's not the Rom, it's the app.. :rolleyes: Tango works fine :D

Yes, but I wasn't performing standard flashing.. Like I keep saying, User Error....
[Vibrant Android Development] efol:
ok....I want to make sure I am clear on this. Flash R6.....let it boot and load. go into clockwork recovery and flash the AT&T zip to fix data and I am good to go?

I am just confused because everyone is referencing the modem .bin - which would be through odin but you made an AT&T .zip
[Vibrant Android Development] numberoneoppa:
It is strange, indeed, and I notice it too. Even if the phone is in good health and lasts through the day with light usage - while completely idle at night, it will, without fail, be dead by the time I am awake.

Eerie.

I use MyBackup Pro. Two clicks and it backs up all your apps.
[Vibrant Android Development] Argusi:
Most pay for Titanium Backup. Then you can start a batch restore and walk away. Come back and everything is restored. That's one of the features of the paid version. Makes it a lot easier. I bought it a long time ago, so I don't really know the other alternatives free or paid... :)
[Vibrant Android Development] RobBull69:
Someone had suggested going into the recovery and going to the advanced restore and only restoring the data earlier in this thread. I tried it and it works like a charm. It doesn't restore app data, but you can just restore the temp data from Titanium for the stuff you need to. I noticed I also have no issues with Flash Player when restoring through CW.

I want to install a different lock screen...

any suggestions on which one I should use not to break anything?

I like the one that shows the time, battery status, etc.. not sure of the name...

I installed the skwpe KB and it works great..
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
It's the Kernel.. not the Rom..
[Vibrant Android Development] angry english:
i dunno if i should go to R6, im still on R2 which reads R1 in about phone but it is R2 lol, R2 was when eugene gave us those 4 experimental kernels and i went with #62, been there ever since due to great battery life, now my Q is...... is there any reason for me to flash to R6? i dont use data, only wifi, my phone seems to run fine with R2, is there really that much of a diff in speed to R6? let me know anyone.

Oh and eugene thanks for all your overtime this last week, you have been pumping this stuff out for us so quick, and sorry to hear about your phone bud, hope to have you back soon :)
[Vibrant Android Development] cozmicfool:
Then what's a better Kernel to install? My battery dropped 13% in 15 minutes today.

The battery drain is definitely noticeable. :confused:

Also, Eugene can you please tell me why R6 connects drops connection from E/3G and connects to another network all together and connects to HSDPA.

Normally this would be great, but because the Vibrant does not support that network via hardware it just results in me not being able to pull any data. Any suggestions to this problem?

Thanks in advance! Overall love the Roms! Just need to get these last few kinks out of it!
[Vibrant Android Development] cobra85ec:
wat kernel should i use then.....thx 4 all ur hard work
[Vibrant Android Development] kingrat:
If the kernal sucks like Sarah Palin does then why would he use it instead of a stable battery sipping one?
[Vibrant Android Development] angry english:
use #62 if you want good battery life
[Vibrant Android Development] mr2t32:
do you have any IM app running? if you do, try turning it off and see if you notice a difference. I had beejive running after i flashed froyo and it drained my battery really fast. Went from 99% down to 90% in less than 40mins. That's with the phone on idle. Now i have trillian installed on battery safe mode and i'm getting decent drain.
[Vibrant Android Development] kingrat:
doesn't this have #62 already????

Anyone flashed the AT&T Modem yet?

Does your Baseband = I897UCJI6?
[Vibrant Android Development] sader2202:
You know whats funny Eugene brick his phone and the Official froyo for the Galaxy s just came out today. sigh what eugene would have done with that.
[Vibrant Android Development] cobra85ec:
yea.. its #62 in the about screen in the phone
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
I'll have another soon enough.. at $100 & my buddy said she would sell me hers for $250 since she just got the new mytouch 4G..

Eugene, I sent some money this morning. Hope that I can help some on your troubles into a getting a replacement phone. You more than.deserve it for all the time and work you put into this.

I encorage everyone to donate. We waste 5,10 dollars all the time. Today eat cereal at dinner and donate what you usually spend to eugene. Just asubgestion ofcourse.

Another thing, can you give us instructions on how to flash the at&t modem that you recomended. I LOVE. R6 but my battery is draining like crazy and I have the data bug too. That will make the phone just perfect until we get the gps driver or the official update. I will apreciate this a lot.

Thanks in advance and may the Lord bless you and tour family!!
[Vibrant Android Development] angry english:
dont know why your getting bad battery life then, as mine lasts great, with medium heavy use, playing games, texts, calls etc etc
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Just load the zip in cWm Recovery and flash.. before I bricked my phone battery life was resolved on all kernel's & my data issue's was fine.. but, I guess I should have stopped when I was ahead..

Thank you btw, means alot to me..

I'm new to the xda forum, how do we donate. I'd like to send some his way too. As a fellow developer I have a very good understanding of the woes he is going through to get this stuff to work. Sucks he bricked your phone!

Eugene,

Brought you some Pepsi also.. Thanks for the Great Rom
[Vibrant Android Development] cozmicfool:
Will this stop my phone from connecting to the HSPA network??? Once I connect to that network my data stop working completely! I'm on R6 right now.
[Vibrant Android Development] sader2202:
That's good news. Might i say Eugene that you are a wonderful person not because of the roms but because of how you handle the situation. You said no to insurance fraud and wasn't willing to except money from people when they offer for you to get a new phone. I now respect you as a person.
[Vibrant Android Development] Tdino:
ty for the feed back...this is why i love this forum
[Vibrant Android Development] kiddiosky:
Did you backup the EFS Files before you Flashed the AT&T Modem? When I did mines this morning, I forgot to back it up and my Data didnt work at all. I just reflashed the R6 and it started working for me again.

Eugene - I seen you post a menu in a few pages back *#2263#

What are we suppose to do with that?
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
That I didn't test but I was wtiching back and forth fine lastnight...

Thanks :D

If you get where you can't connect to tmo network..

That will fix it if you can't connect to tmo, this only effects people that upgraded via ODIN to JI6 2.1

[Vibrant Android Development] gregc2009:
Trying out this ROM and it is very nice. Nice enough for me to use it for a daily for a while. One issue I have though is I am an OpenVPN user and had it working well on 2.1. Setup a script for all my ROM changing to just install OpenVPN with my settings.

With 2.2, it looks that the tun.ko I use with 2.1 won't work.

Any possibility that you could compile a tun.ko module for your kernels? I could probably do it if you are too busy but I'd need some hand holding to do so. Where to get the kernel source for example. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] MTC44:
Eugene,

What was the proposed changelog for R7? Now that the data issue is fixed (!!!!) I'm ready to flash back to 2.2....but if R7 has significant changes in store, I might wait the week (or less/more??) until you are able to upload R7.

Will be donating as a thank you/phone purchase. You're a great dev and a better dude. Thanks for all the hard work.
[Vibrant Android Development] benwhite:
Using R6...

Headphones and car AUX work for music and whatnot, but placing calls does not use either :(

eugene373, I would be happy to beta test any fix if you like.
[Vibrant Android Development] numberoneoppa:
Lots of love in here. It's good to see.

Anyways, I could be wrong, but I'm thinking Eugene might hold out a while before his next major release since samsung just released their new ROM. I surely would act along these lines.
[Vibrant Android Development] OccamsToothbrush:
Well, I could be wrong too, but isn't today's "official" release still for the non-US galaxy s phones?
[Vibrant Android Development] cozmicfool:
I actually didn't flash the AT&T modem yet. I was wondering if that would fix my problem before I did it.
[Vibrant Android Development] numberoneoppa:
Correct. However, all of Eugene's Macnut ROMs are based off of the i9000 roms. I don't see the next one being any different. I just think he might take some time and examine their source to see what they've changed (or whatever he normally does...).
[Vibrant Android Development] liquidplastik:
I'm running R6 plain (no special kernel). Sometimes it just does a kind of reset randomly. Not a full reset, but just goes to the boot animation screen where you see 4 different colors of particles forming an X. This happens quite often, sometimes repeatedly during the lock screen. Is anyone else experiencing this? Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] theyownus:
in on R6. Just flashed the ATT modem with cwm. I just flashed it without wiping after deleting davlik cache. Then I flashed it a second time before rebooting. I always double flash everything in cwm just to be sure. Sits on boot screen for awhile but after booting no problems. Data is working... speed tests are slower than the stock R6 20 mins ago. but it is noon in DFW so it night just be congestion. Hoping this clears up high idle battery drain... wasn't having a big data drop problem since R6
[Vibrant Android Development] cozmicfool:
Thanks sent you a little someting towards that new phone!
[Vibrant Android Development] Kryptyx:
Try wiping your delvik cache in recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] kiddiosky:
Oh sorry for the misunderstanding, thought you already flashed and have no data lol...
[Vibrant Android Development] AgentFour20:
Sorry to hear your vib . Ill set up a paypal when I get out of work and shoot you a dub . You help us so its only right we help you .
[Vibrant Android Development] bstromberg:
The data switching is very very rarely an issue for me...just lucky I guess...so my question is, for the people who are flashing the att modem, is there any significant benefit in battery life and/or data? If not, then i'll just stay the way I am.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdeleon:
Im getting a little better signal idk about battery life though
[Vibrant Android Development] Kubernetes:
Hey Eugene, just sent a little cash your way to help out with the phone. In the interests of full disclosure, I actually haven't even flashed any of your ROMs, but I know what you mean to this community and how much you've done for it. I'm really looking forward to using your stuff once there's a working GPS; like I said earlier, donating to you is simply enlightened self-interest!
[Vibrant Android Development] newspeak:
so flashed the att modem ....so far i am not sure if its effecting my download speeds as i seem to be getting an average of 2mb down ....but this time of day that seems about what i get here anyway

my upload speed is alot slower in the 300kb range i did a speed test last night at like 2 am in the same location and i got 2.6mb down and 1.4mb up ....so i am really not sure
[Vibrant Android Development] OccamsToothbrush:
That's exactly what happens when I try to run r6, too.
[Vibrant Android Development] skater991:
I have noticed my data dropping while still showing the H logo but after a quick switch to and from airplane mode it works again....weird....
[Vibrant Android Development] ellopr:
Thanks Eugene!!!

Flashed the ATT modem and everything is working fine. Run speed test before and after and got better results after. I am at work and the data bug does not create problems here cause is full 3G. Home it was where I was getting real problems. Hope they are fix.

Battery life I will see later cause I am charging it cause it was alredy at 33% just an hour ago. Normally I will only have to charge the phone once at night with Eclair.

I encourage people to keep donating and to Eugene to keep us posted if you have enough cash. I will gladly donate more in the future if you are still short.

Also sell the part on Ebay, you will get good money for the screen, the camera, and all the rest components that are still good.
[Vibrant Android Development] jslee1020:
Even R6 "plain without special kernel" includes kernel62.. which contains voltage mods.Try kernel60. It doesn't have any voltage mods, and it got rid of those annoying vibrates/FC/reboots for me :D
[Vibrant Android Development] cozmicfool:
I was having the same problem too. I installed the AT&T modem and that appears to solve my problem. When my data switch to HSPA from Edge I can still connect.

Before flashing the AT&T modem rom I couldn't get any data to work while connected to that network. Hope this helps. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] jdeleon:

I would do it myself but I'm stuck in the desert working.

Ps. Eugene....don't look at this as charity. Just good people thanking you and good Karma for treating us all great! Thank you. Donation coming your way when I'm off work.
