Same issue here. Media Scanner stuck at 0%, and I deleted thumbnails beforehand.

Data/Signal seems unreliable... I had 3G... tried to load a webpage, and it went to NO SIGNAL... this is after I enabled 850 band. It took about 45 seconds to get even a voice signal back.
[Vibrant Android Development] diaa08:
media scanner worked fine for me, though i did reboot right away after doing the band thing, but after reboot (blazing fast btw) it scanned without a problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Factory reset solved the problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Please let me know, I'm DEPENDING on you lol, no but just pm me or something.
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Media scanner hanging here, too. Otherwise all good so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] flipper2006:
ok, right off the bat (and im getting sleepy even with the extra hour). I was using bionix and battery said 25%, now after loading this, it shows (icon) nearly 3/4ths full. This doesnt read the battery level correctly? Battery says 60% here.. dont think this is correct.
[Vibrant Android Development] Hawkularxda:
Ok sorry for the dumb question, but after I enter the code on the dialer and select COMBI BAND then select WCDMA 850; on the next screen do I click the "Add WCDMA 850? Maybe that's obvious, but it wasn't specifically spelled out in the instructions. Thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Android Development] kangxi:
You have to recondition.
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
Bionix has a modded battery. This uses the stock battery meter, which has always been .... should we say... optimistic.

on another note...

Once this is loaded, it still says GT-I9000 and TMobile baseband... what parts came from AT&T?
[Vibrant Android Development] kangxi:
I think it was pretty obvious in the instructions.. but yes...
[Vibrant Android Development] diaa08:
argh! i know its not a priority for most, but the dialer still doesn't route phone calls to headset! i know there was talk a way back about it being a headset issue, but i've tested this with 2.1 roms and they all route properly. i am positive its something to do with the froyo dialer.

otherwise seems very fast, no fc, effortless titanium restore... putting it through paces.

great work eugene!
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Google Voice voicemail doesn't update the number to dial for some reason on this ROM. Previous macnut ROMs had this working fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
You can use "Rescan Media Root" to kill the media scanner without doing a factory reset, which would clear the lagfix.... Rescan Media Root can enable/disable/run on demand the media scanner. I've been using it for a while, since I have a LOT of small files on my media card from a few apps I use, and media scanner has always been slow for me, and I rather hate it.
[Vibrant Android Development] r0man:
Does anyone have trouble when shutting down the phone (not plugged into USB)?
[Vibrant Android Development] awolfgang:
I also have the media scan hang, I will try the "Rescan Media Root" - thanks for the tip Lotherius.

Looks really smooth, GPS hit me on the nose.

Nice job Eugene!!
[Vibrant Android Development] glensta:
For the media scan fix - Does the factory reset wipe out the built in lag fix?
[Vibrant Android Development] kangxi:
Yes, it takes awhile.

I simply reflashed and it took care of it.
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
I believe so unless that has changed in this version. I recommend using Rescan Media Root to control the media scanner, it will also kill the stuck process.
[Vibrant Android Development] diaa08:
not sure what you are talking about in terms of this. i did notice back on R7 that the procedure for setting up G voice was different, didnt ask for number and stuff. still worked as normal though. is that what you are talking about? can't test because i just restored through titanium.
[Vibrant Android Development] hackman17:
R8

This rom is just awwsome, everything works and it feels a bit more snappy than R7. Great work eugene, thanks. You definitely my no.1 dev on here. :cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Yes it does.

On a side note: Holy ****! I locked 5 sats in 3 sec from my couch! Normally I lock ZERO so that is just flippin' awesome! Think I"m gonna use it to go find my bed ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
Thanks Eugene373,

A simple question here..How to check if the pre-installed lagfix working? It says 1.8GB available in Application storage in settings. It is my first 2.2.. So I just not very familiar...Thanks all
[Vibrant Android Development] dattaway:
Fast, faster than ever, smooth, things just work, not bad for a few beers! I'm trying to find bugs, but this is looking good...real good!
[Vibrant Android Development] nearblack:
Alright the GPS is working for me Just from using the phone, one thing that has changed is the.cosmetics of the Rom... The title of the app you are running is no longer the sleek navy blue but is back to that tacky light blue. The music player now has the titles in blocks instead of being separated by plain lines. Contacts are back to those weird curved squares.

Basically its back to the eclair stock vibrant look. I really don't like it.

But everything else is ****ing flawless.
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Well I'm off to sleep. Only noticing a couple of things. Google voice works but can't change the voicemail number now for some reason. Also the media scanner and shut down issues. GPS is excellent to say the least.
[Vibrant Android Development] awolfgang:
reflashing fixed my media scan hang issue. Thanks!!
[Vibrant Android Development] diazf09:
Ok booted up fine running smooth.. I couldnt set my band.. I opened dialer typed #2263# hit call.. Says unable to process request... Is it need to do that? Im get like 3.8mb d/ 1.3 u... Got a couple scores where it went 4.5 d....then some that went up 5mb d.... Is the data issues alreasy fixed.. Or is the att modem needed?

yes. I have to hard reset it seems.
[Vibrant Android Development] diaa08:
minor nitpick. when you pull down the notification bar, the toggles that are active are green, and the text for them is blue: this particular text is hard to read against the grey backdrop.

says a lot when this (plus my unending headphone routing in calls quest) are the only problems encountered. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] r0man:
Nevermind, magic and bacon seems to have corrected the issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] kangxi:
It's so late but I kinda wanna go outside and test this magical GPS everyone keeps mentioning LOL. Guess it can wait til the morning.
[Vibrant Android Development] nakagusukumike:
GPS is functioning for me, however it's the same thing that bionix was doing to me. I've got a dozen satellites "in view" with 35+ SNR and 0 ever lock after 10 minutes of sitting outside. FML
[Vibrant Android Development] offdutyninja808:
Download Quadrant from the market and run a full benchmark test. If you get around 2000, then the lagfix is installed and working. If you get between 900-1000, then no.
[Vibrant Android Development] Kryptyx:
I've noticed an odd issue on R8, when I mount the USB drive, it shows up as a CD Drive in Windows 7, there are also 2 other drives that show up, one is the External SD and the other one tells me to insert a removable disk. Not sure if anyone else noticed this. Gonna try it in Ubuntu and see what happens.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikeyinid:
Beautiful rom Eugene. Gps is great, the rom itself is very nice. Data is still sketchy but I had it figured out earlier so...great job on this! Thank you...

Swype...whats goin on with it. Wont swype, have to type words out
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
Question. On last build I used "id change" to install my phone id on to this Rom. Now when I dloaded is changer on this Rom, it says unverified source and won't let me change id. Anyone know why? Or how I can fix this?
[Vibrant Android Development] qreffie:
OH $#!T!!!!! I fell asleep and woke up to find working GPS????!!! Eugene I'd hug you if I could. Can't wait to download so I can flash this.
[Vibrant Android Development] diaa08:
not experiencing this bug. i just tried it to be sure. are you sure you arent in the sammy keyboard? thats the default on this rom and it looks a lot like swype.
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
dang it I just installed the new Bionix. Time to install again lol
[Vibrant Android Development] kangxi:
It should be a crime that this rom is this fast. Seriously, it blazes!

Ok so far so good just mounted it to my pc. No prob there.. Loving it so far... Wish i had the froyo dialer.. I liked the sounds.. Also the contacts... Right now this has a touch of eclair...

Everything working fine for me including GPS

[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I'm running Windows 7 32-bit. I mounted phone to PC and the internal storage showed up as a cd drive and the external showed up like normal. I did not get the removable disk one. No biggie, functions like it's suppose to. All in all this rom is amazing. Excellent work Eugene.

Can I Flash R8 over R6 with at&t modem??
[Vibrant Android Development] drewtang:
Absolutely awesome so far. Although when I tried to flash the stock Android lockscreen, phone kinda wigged out, kept rebooting.
[Vibrant Android Development] r0man:
Is there anyway to change the vibration intensity for the stock SMS app? It's quite powerful.
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:

[Vibrant Android Development] Anderdroid:
Try Anycut ?
[Vibrant Android Development] harabinger66:
Reflashing. I must say though, it seemed to be running REALLY fast. Was just having a "turning the phone off" issue, and the media scanner thing.
[Vibrant Android Development] bert269:
cannot see why not?

As far as I know, you can flash it over any rom. If you did came from a 2.1 ROM, you may loose everything on your internal SD. from previous 2.2's it will just do the factory reset an all apps. (like all the other MacNut's before)
[Vibrant Android Development] briankao1992:
after I reflashed, it fixed both for me

Never heard of it, gonna try it after I finish restoring apps.

EDIT: <3 anycut. never even knew of it before!
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
Thanks. for answering.
[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
no special instructions anywhere my educated guess is yes... guess we'll find out soon im on r6 w att modem flashing now!!
[Vibrant Android Development] jumaaneface:
Hey eugene would it be too much trouble to ask for like a zip or rar file of the rest of the twiz apps like info alarm mini diary etc whenever you can? I think im probably the only person on the face of the earth that actually uses those apps on a regular basis. Btw this rom is ungodly smooth. Have not noticed any issues at all so far. Actually posting this directly from the browser lol i hate the xda app. Will be donating what i can on monday. Heres to you for my gps working as should :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
Ok. I'll let you flash first. If you don't mind could you tell me if its a yes or no. Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] nakagusukumike:

Rom Manager will not reboot into recovery, I was going to reflash R8 but now it just hangs when it get to the reboot part. Any suggestions.
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
I am in awe of your bravery :D

lol - I don't blame you. With the whole copy your /efs stuff I nervous on flashing from Fusion 1.2. The OP still has the JI2 modem listed not the ATT, but its the ATT froyo.
[Vibrant Android Development] ezadel:
coming from bionix fusion

so Ihad bionix fusion 1.1 and i was thinking update to 1.2 or this, a complete FROYO with gps... so I flashed this now... what s the purpose of that ATT 850 band thing? also just our of curiosity how did they get the GPS to work? leaked drivers??? ...any advice for me coming from bionix?
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
LOL! yeah a little nervous, bacause I dont want to brick. So if this rom has the at&t modem already then I guess it's ok to flash like usual in CW. What is your outcome? did you flash thru CW? or did you do it via odin? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] bad4life07:
Hmm

Maybe Im just blind but.... where is the youtube app?
[Vibrant Android Development] Kryptyx:
Just a heads ups, AOSP lockscreen does not seem to work with this release either. Kept getting soft reboots. Also seems I could not wipe Delvik cache in recovery told me that the device was already mounted. Possibly because of the lagfix?
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
I can confirm that media can stall works after a reinstall. Also i got a few force closes with rom manager but after rebooting into recovery manually it reinstalled on it's own somehow. weird. but I love it. works great!
[Vibrant Android Development] stepinmyworld:
just install it from the market
[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
brick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just kidding working like a champ!!!

I found I can't change the display setting in contact. I mean there is no difference what I want First name first or Last name first...

BTW: the contact is from 2.1's backup via Titanium.
[Vibrant Android Development] Kryptyx:
Just get the SGS Tools app, search my name "Kryptyx" on the market...
[Vibrant Android Development] ezadel:
blown away

I am just blown away, I guess i did not look enough but all my data is gone when i flashed this over bionix... BUT GUESS WHAT ? i am still blown away this rom is amazing so fast , does it include lag fix and all?? do i need to do anything?,,, flash is working great I am downloading 5 megs per sec on 3g what more should i ask for I am in heaven
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
Thanks! I've done with your app, really awesome app!

BTW, There is no "Skyhook option" in Froyo or cause the driver lacking?
[Vibrant Android Development] qreffie:
ok i noticed one problem. when i mounted it to my laptop the internal sd came up as a read only cd rom and i wasn't able to open any files from it or write to it.
[Vibrant Android Development] bad4life07:
Spent an hour tweaking and messing around with this rom....

Very epic rom indeed, no problems thus far other than trying to get used to it.

Now to see if it can survive a day at work...
[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
DITTO so i coppied files to my external then used root explorer to move them to internal... was flashing oc kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] qreffie:
i tried to adb push a file but it gave me a read only error. root explorer still works eh?
[Vibrant Android Development] invisiblemonki:
R6 to R8 flipflop

what happened to the circular battery indicator and the H symbol in the notification bar? I had R6 for a few hours and they were great, and suddenly *poof* gone again. :confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
boy things sure are quiet here ;) FLASH FEVER BABY

now im kinda scared... internal memory errors kinda have that effect on me :confused:

btw does this have the att modem already... i see OP says ji2 modem.bin?
[Vibrant Android Development] ezadel:
problem with headset

I have to confirm the problem with the headset.. :( , yes it maybe that if i used the original samsung headset it will work, but with 2.1 roms I was able to route the sounf to ANY 3.5 mm pair of headphones and hear the call through them just like songs , etc ... why can't I do that anymore... I like to connect the phone to my car so I can talk while driving... Please Eugene fix this and make headset work with any headphones :((, I dont wanna go back to Bionix
[Vibrant Android Development] stephenj37826:
It says if you do a factory reset youll have to redo the lag fix btw. Ive seen you on the zmod thread. Is this as smooth as that in your opinion? I love my phone right now but of course i want froyo. I had everything ext4 except system which was ext2. wouldnt it be killer to mod one of these kernals and have that on this rom.

[Vibrant Android Development] rpope904:
If this was already asked, I apologize.. i've read back like 7 pages. I just flashed back to bionix last night because I travel through alot of cell towers daily, and would not ever have data when I needed it with 2.2 releases, with the AT&T modem is that the case, or is the new modem a fix for that? :confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] qreffie:
I really want to drive it, but I had to flash back to R6 because I need to be able to write to the internal SD from my computer more. I'll have to wait until that issue is fixed.
[Vibrant Android Development] jumaaneface:
Individual twitter contact syncing hangs. Syncing all works. Only bug ive found so far. Have as of yet plugged into pc. Gonna do it now

[Vibrant Android Development] atothep:
mirrors?????????
[Vibrant Android Development] zc4life:
SWeet

THe rom is really smooth, data works flawlessly without selecting the combi freq., was switching from 2g to 3g and wifi to 3g. I also did a factory reset after flash and it installed fine without issues, just installed oclf for lag fix. GPS works better then ever...better then 2.1. Only issues so far is shutting down with usb cable plugged in and the internal card is being read as a cd drive.

Eugene can we get a 1.2 kernel on this? And a battery mod?

Thank you for all the work sir, you are one of thr best devs ever :)
[Vibrant Android Development] awolfgang:
I flashed straight from fusion 1.1 and it worked fine. The media scan hangs (I went through the flashing process twice), the only thing that fixed it for me was to "restore factory defaults." Then I had no problems with the media scanning.

However I'm still having trouble being able to write to my internal memory from a computer (I tried windows and mac). I can write to the external memory card, but I have no permissions to write to the internal memory.
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
anyone have found a way to fix the SD Card issue?
[Vibrant Android Development] warsteiner00:
So, this mean we can enable the 850 mhz band with vibrant?

have anybody tried this?
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
I tried,, but seems to have no effect whatsoever...

I'm using At&t... and I see no difference in signal. My iphone has full bars while the vibrant still between 1 and 2 in the same location...

I fell asleep waiting for this rom,,

XDA Super Power with disabled data when screen is off

and underclocking at 200mhz-400mhz (100%priority) when screen is off... saves you a lot of battery. I run at 6% per hour with light use. Could be more though. How's the battery on R8.

GPS locking on well for most?
[Vibrant Android Development] grennis:
Think about it... ebatr8 says he has a Vibrant Froyo leak and then he apparently balks at the last minute. But then he send a PM to djquick in which he says "keep watching XDA for good stuff". Lo and behold just a couple hours later, Eugene suddenly has a working GPS. You really think that is a coincidence?
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
dude stop and think about this and read before you try to derail this thread. Eugene posted in the OP that this is based off the att Froyo not the Vibrant which is Tmobile.

Come on people, it's not hard to read and find these answers stop being lazy.
