I haven't heard of his progress before, but it's a good thing it actually runs. I want to know more information- Which filesystem is he using for user data? RFS or EXT? What version is the kernel he's using? 2.6.32? Which HTC phone is the framework taken from (I suspect it's the Desire Z)? It's just amazing to see a completely Samsung-free system (except for kernel) on the Vibrant. Maybe he can help get initramfs to work in CyanogenMod, which as far as I know is (or used to be) the biggest problem in porting CyanogenMod to the Galaxy S!

BUMP

I've been dying for sense on my vibrant since day 1 - if you guys pull this off expect a fat donation!
[Vibrant Android Development] deez1234:
Amazing project.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whosdaman:
Barakinflorida and eugene have joined our team :)
[Vibrant Android Development] drizze99:
That's fantastic news!!
[Vibrant Android Development] lightninbug:
Did I read correctly? A build is getting released tonight? And since im a tester where can I download? Will it be sent to xda inbox?

Sent from the bathroom while on the toilet.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
no, a build is not being released tonight.

only barak is giving the other devs what he already has...

;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Dan_Brutal:
Exciting. Looking forward to this.
[Vibrant Android Development] kingkurry:
To be honest, there are some things that Samsung does way better than any other manufacturer out there, and it would be stupid to remove them, like the Music player with the equalizer and sound effects and the support for a variety of video codecs.

So please devs, try and keep the codecs and music player lol. Unless HTC sense can do that too now O.o
[Vibrant Android Development] Robert8457:
I agree will the media player be like touchwiz because that one is good.
[Vibrant Android Development] d3xt3rlab:
i agree too :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Whosdaman:
barak when are you getting on tonight?
[Vibrant Android Development] NikolaiT:
I'll gladly test. My Vibrant isn't hardware-locked so no worries :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Chainfire:
This thread is now closed.

Exciting as this development may be, precedence requires this thread remains closed until there is something actually available for download.

I would like to point out Whosdaman can re-open the thread when a download is available, and you can still join the IRC channel to aid development and testing, until a download is available and this thread is unlocked.

Furthermore, I would like to remind you that until there is anything available to download, you should not be actually donating to any project.
[Vibrant Android Development] Robert8457:
did you port sense yet?
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
I think they stopped developing it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Robert8457:
Yeah i hope not
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
Yeah I want sense on this phone bad.
[Vibrant Android Development] Robert8457:
I hope they dont close the thread we need some update on how tgis is going.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
why is this thread open?
[Vibrant Android Development] Robert8457:
I hope it stays open i need an update
[Vibrant Android Development] grennis:
Somebody check the IRC channel and see what's going on and report back to me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Robert8457:
Its dead I think its not being worked on anymore.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whosdaman:
It is being worked on...lol i left it open sorry
[Vibrant Android Development] Whosdaman:
Ok, $50 to the first person to fix the 2 MAJOR issues!
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Alright, what is up with this. I look at the thread, it is edited my ZEL he put some donate link, and changed a bunch of things. I said that this is where I last got it to work. If you want to open a different thread, go ahead. But please don't try to hijack this one.

Link is being replaced with mine
[Vibrant Android Development] Whosdaman:
MasterTM this was a Team effort. I put the donate link to the Team Galaxy Sense donation.

If you do not revert all changes you just made I will report you for stealing the rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
That is fine. Apparently if I have credits then it isn't considered stealing.

http://pastebin.com/iHfJ3mEz

The donate link is TO YOU, not a team.

Like I said, this is where I GOT IT TO BOOT

"'you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed / created a piece of work, first try to settle the matter by private message and NOT in open forum. If this fails then you may contact a moderator with clear evidence that the work was created by you.'

The part of the rule that was stated "you must first seek their permission" was created when WM users made their own custom themes and such. With Android being as open as it is anyone can throw together a few .Apk's and call it a whole new ROM. Android is not owned by anyone and you have no rights to take all the credit for your "development"."

That was said by captainkrtek.. Not to mention I was the one who got this one to boot.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
WHOA, this is getting juicy
[Vibrant Android Development] Whosdaman:
Yes, I set up the donation. All the money so far has dumped right into the server.
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
like that would be a first for him. Good luck and I agree this was not even started by him but just another person's work he is looking to make $$ off of. We should all be use to this by now.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Really? I don't even want money from this. He does.

You should get out of this thread. I am pretty sure you were told not to come in my threads since you got my last one closed.

I asked someone to close this hi-jacked thread.
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
I'm not sure who you think told me what but you should check your sources again kid, and who gave you this ego of "you can't come to my threads" ?

if you want to control the info that is shared you should go back to your own forum, you have no power here.

Now back to development
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
What server? The file was on MEGAUPLOAD

Not a personal server
[Vibrant Android Development] rsfaze:
I thought barakin was the first one to get this to boot on the Vibrant, if I recall you were not even around here when this project was first started yet you were the first to get it to boot?
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
I am not sure where his build it. When we first got this, it would not boot on the vibrant.

If you don't know your facts and you are only here to troll, please leave.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiderman3k:
I'm a newbie on this, well here is what I have..: evo with fresh 3.xxx and I did install some app that make the ph way too slow.. b4 to install the latest FRESH update i did a nandroid back up... anyways I did a factory reset from the sd card and storage setting.. i confirmed and the phone did this restore, but when trying to reboot got stuck (lloop)on the HTC screens, i took the battery off and I did a nandroid restore WORKS fine, then i did a wipe of the cache and wipe the kevin or what ever that other wipe is.... ph reboot properly and everything got back to normal.. but WHY i can't just get a factory reset on the phone so i can wipe off all the apps
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killakarl:
you can through recovery it will wipe all your apps and data. or you could use titanium or an app remover.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latoso:
That is because you have a custom rom and fresh has apps2sd..trust me dont do that agian that happen to me nothing worked my sd card slot burned since i rooted the evo my warranty got void. i had to buy one from ebay that mistake cost me $450
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiderman3k:
Yes.. from recovery did work fine.. ty
[Fascinate Android Development] ryude:
Does it still have the built in messaging app?
[Fascinate Android Development] aphelion02:
Nice job! However, may I suggest a different name for this ROM? When I see Barebones 0.2 I thought it would be an update to the existing ROM that birdman made, this is pretty different.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
it does not. the rom is not meant to be used as is, but to be customized by each person who downloads it. you can download chomp sms or handcent sms from the market, or get the stock messaging app from frostman's deodexed rom or the aosp messaging app from JT's Super Clean .04 rom and install it using the instructions in the first post.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
oh yeah, that's what he named his TEST20 kernel isn't it. hmm. any suggestions anyone?
[Fascinate Android Development] aphelion02:
I suggest something like "skeleton" or "minimalist" or just "simple ROM". I like the sound of "Simple Rom" myself.
[Fascinate Android Development] ludionis:
Clarification

I really like the idea you have. The only suggestion I would make is, for those not savvy enough to dig up system dumps, etc to find the needed .apks, maybe adding a folder called "Apks" to the rom (in which you would find all the stock removed apks), so you just copy/paste into the "sdcard" folder you create. Again, kudos to your idea of a 'build-your-own-rom' rom you have here. :D
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Thank you, I appreciate that. And we are actually somewhat on the same page. this is the first dev work i've ever done and i'm learning as I go. my goal is to have this rom in Rom Manager, with custom download options like some roms have on other phones. for example you pick the Blackhole Rom, then select your version, and then it asks you which launcher you want, then which messaging app, then which contacts app, etc. that way you can choose from a list when you download it, or choose "no thanks" and get a different one yourself.
[Fascinate Android Development] shauder:
Not a fan of the theme but thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I will release a stock theme update tomorrow.

Sent from my fascinate running Blackhole Custom ROM http://db.tt/oFaeWb0
[Fascinate Android Development] em.Tea:
love the idea but a bit too bare for me. FC's when opening contacts through phone and no stock mms. maybe ill give it a try when i have time to customize it myself
[Fascinate Android Development] denonlake:
Like the idea!

Sent from my de-binged fascinate!
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Rom has been updated and I will be requesting Rom Manager access today.
[Fascinate Android Development] mykebass:
Great idea in my opinion.
[Fascinate Android Development] ryude:
It has a lot of potential, still would like to see original mms app as well as the original contacts app.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
All of that will be available soon after I get listed on Rom manager. it's much easier that way than trying to post apk files on this topic. If you can't wait that long JT has the stock mms app already in rom manager and the mesmerize contacts app is in a topic on the forums here. it's the same as stock except a few new features.
[Fascinate Android Development] iceman1183:
Sorry, probably a dumb question, but am I correct in assuming that because there's no mention of TouchWiz, you've replaced it with LP?
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
yes that's correct. A little while after it's up on Rom manager I'll set it up to let you choose between LauncherPro, ADW, and Touchwiz. For starters.
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
I read over on other GalaxyS phones about DRM services that run in the background that take a decent toll on battery life.. Have you looked into getting them removed to further clean the system up and improve on this cleanliness? :P
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I will certainly try it out. i've been slowly removing an app or 2 every couple of hours to see if it crashes my phone, then if all is good i'll release an update tomorrow. I'll check those out this evening.
[Fascinate Android Development] toskabab:
Thanks a lot man. I can't tell you how long I have been waiting for something like this. Great work!
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Updated to Version 0.4, please let me know of any issues.
[Fascinate Android Development] ryude:
When do you anticipate a final build? I'm very interested in using this ROM when it is available on ROM manager.
[Fascinate Android Development] toskabab:
I am having three issues:

1) Not receiving MMS. I have installed handcent.

2) The phone doesn't ring when receiving incoming calls. Even though I am using the default ringtone on max volume. I can hear the ringtone when selecting it. Just not when someone is calling.

3) Can't sync facebook contacts.

Will let you know if I find anything else.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
why u didnt include the gtalk? it is necesassry for market download right?
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
I'm a huge fan of the concept. This seems to lack some basic functionality though. Will be watching progress. :) good job so far.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I was unable to duplicate the ringtone issue, it does ring for me on the default. I'll keep looking at it though.

The MMS will not come in with a custom program unless the stock is present too, i'm finding. corrected this by adding stock mms back in V 0.4.1.

I have been working on the facebook issues for about an hour now. The facebook syncing for this phone is handled through SNS, not the facebook app like most phones. once we can build AOSP for this phone this will not be an issue but for now i've tried including the SNS files, but I'm missing something because it still won't sync, and it generates a lot of acore FC's. When I get something working it will be uploaded as version 0.4.2 and replace the 0.4.1.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
The Google Talk application is removed, but the talkprovider.apk is the file necessary for the market to work. market is functional on this ROM. I really can't wait for koush to pull my manifest for ROM Manager because then 98% of these issues with dissappear because you'll have the option to install everything that's missing.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
ive done it my self... im compare it side by side with clean update ROM. Its much easier... all is fine now. But there's FC called a core.android? what it is?

plus... why the contact.apk and browser is on sdcard?not on system? i moved it by my self to system/app
[Fascinate Android Development] toskabab:
Thanks for the quick updates. Got mms back and the fb sync isnt really a big deal, thought I'd just throw it in there. But I'll be damned if I cant figure out this ringtone issue. It's odd. All the sounds work perfect, all the time, except for when the phone rings. I'm sure I screwed up something somewhere.

*Edit*

There are also some text to speech issues. Came across it trying to fix my ringtone. It doesn't let you install voice data directly from settings. Of course this can obviously be manually downloaded from the market. But I'm curious to know if it affects functionality in any way. I don't use it so I don't know. Maybe I'll play around with it a little just for kicks. I'll let you know what happens.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I added them into the sdcard so that if people prefer the mesmerize contacts app and a different browser they can download them and not have extras, but if they want stock it's easily available.

I have never used the text to speech before, but i think i know which app controls that. i'll add it back in with the next update. will probably be monday. let me know if you find anything more about the ringtone issue. I have not been able to duplicate it at all. does it happen with other ringtones as well or just the default? what if you load one using a 3rd party app like ringdroid?
[Fascinate Android Development] toskabab:
Funny. Playing with the tts crap I noticed that my media volume was on 0. I didn't notice it before cause I didn't try listening to music. Get this, I turn the volume up and my ringtone works now. :confused: I don't understand why my media volume was all the way down, or what this has to do with ringtones, especially since I could hear them well in the selection menu. But hey, I'm not gonna fight it. I'm just happy to have the phone do what a phone is supposed to do again.

*By the way, I wouldn't add tts in the next update. I'd keep it as a side app.
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
I got FB syncing working on 0.4.1.. seems some of the DRM crap is required for it to sync properly without getting an "acore" process FC.

My gf prefers to have FB syncing on her Fascinate.. where I don't care on mine.. so you need both SNS Account and SNS Provider APKs.. but im not sure which exact DRM apks you need back, but I copied them back in and FB syncing started working fine again.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Thank you so much! I have been messing with this for hours and never tried the drm files. I'll give it a go and find out which one(s), then I can include them all in the facebook sync extra package.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
hai... just want u to know. I've been running the v4 almost 12 hours with no FC.

i move the mms.apk to system...because it getting error if still in sdcard. And i use mesmerize browser and contact. Working fine here..

And the best thing is.. i hav more battery time, it can hang on till 11 hours. Its amazing for me... cause i just get 6-7 hours with the other and stock ROM.

oyaa... i'm from indonesia, i use smart telecom.
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
Seems the DRM removal that people do on the other Galaxies does indeed help our battery as well.. I went nearly 2 days on battery with a lot of usage after removing the DRM services. Too bad they are needed for some "stock" functions on the phone.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
what stock?

i cant use the google translate apk no more :( no FB and twitter sync :(
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
Stock, meaning the Samsung made tweaks and apps done to our 2.1 OS. Such as the FB account syncing require some of the DRM processes to be installed. At the cost of battery life.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
aah i see... so if we want still get rid of DRM, then we cant have the FB sync then?

i choose to get rid of DRM then.. i choose the battery life.

thx
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
It seems at least one of the DRM APKs are required to get FB sync working again.. no idea if it's helping or hurting battery life.. The way I understand how the DRM service works on the phone, it's constantly performing background scans on your media for DRM certs which eats up CPU cycles when the phone should be idling. For me i'm noticing a solid 15-20% increase in battery life. Or my habits could be changing.. or this Blackhole ROM was the trick...
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I have added a link at the bottom of the OP for extra apps all in one place for people who need a little help finding them, please let me know if there is anything else I should add. I also added a bit about why I will not be supporting SNS in Blackhole. Working on seeing if there is anything else I can safely remove for version .5
[Fascinate Android Development] ludionis:
Link for extra apps not working for me, on computer gives page cannot be displayed, on phone takes me to google login then empty folder.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
You need to be logged into your google account.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Updated to version 0.5 on OP. I have still been running fine despite removing some stuff i was sure would break the phone, but please let me know if something doesn't work for you.
[Fascinate Android Development] n4m347yp3:
Man, I thought I had this all figured out. When I go to install the apps.zip folder from the 1st post, It just hangs in my CWM screen. I've tried downloading it twice, on another computer....

Really the only issue im having is the contacts. I can't go to them, or reinstall it from my "App Manager" free backup app from the market.

Anyone else have this issue? I can't get to my contacts list, yet when I get a txt or phone call, I have Caller ID.....and it works?

Thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
Yay new update... downloading now.. 0.4 went over 2 days on battery with 40% left.. pretty amazing. Texted, browsed web, etc. quite a bit during that time.
[Fascinate Android Development] em.Tea:
giving it another try today. had the time to actually set it up and stuff. really liking it. so simple and finally a ROM that has LauncherPro instead of ADW. btw im running the voodoo lagfix with the Revolution theme and Evolution font perfectly. really liking this
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
Where did you get the Evolution font?
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Rom manager. Jt's section.
[Fascinate Android Development] martian21:
It's in Jt's folder in ROM Manager.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
sorry for the confusion. the install apps is meant to be run on a computer while the phone is connected, it's an ADB script. it will automatically install any apps you have put in the /sdcard/apps/ folder. There is no contacts app built into this rom but the contact provider is still there, so you will still store your contacts, you just can't access them directly untill you install the stock contacts app or the mesmerize contacts app. or another contacts.
[Fascinate Android Development] whtlitnin1:
love the rom, love the theme....nothing like seeing 195mb free ram in task manager
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Thank you for the encouragement. Glad you appreciate it. I'm really pushing for that 200MB mark :D
[Fascinate Android Development] Diversion:
I've gotten 209MB free on your Rom :P Granted, its only had when setting Security on Advanced Task Killer to low and killing everything that is running on the phone. It knocks your data connection offline until the service spawns back up to reconnect, lol.
[Fascinate Android Development] Sithben24:
Are we supposed to have issues with Backup Assistant? It freezes the phone if I try to use it. And I don't see Google Calendar syncing in accounts. Picassa, contacts, and gmail are there but not Calendar.
[Fascinate Android Development] wizang:
Great rom! Just installed .5.. All the stock deodexed apps I wanted back reinstalled fine except the touchwiz calendar. Anyone else have this problem.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Backup assistant is not included in this build, it will be an option once the rom is in rom manager. if you need access to it i can have an installer uploaded in a few hours. Calendar is not included by default in this build, but i'm thinking of adding it back in the next since i haven't really seen any suitable replacements in the market. I will be testing the AOSP calendar today however.

I have not had that issue, let me take a look at it. how did you try to install it?
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I figured out the calendar issue, you need to add the calendarprovider.apk i have added to my extra apps link into /system/app for it to work and sync properly. I have also updated to v 0.6, removing several other background apps. please let me know of any issues.
