Team Whiskey Rocks

Just thought I'd add my two cents.

@sombionix & Team Whiskey: Thank you so much for all you do for the Vibrant community. You guys not only make these awesome roms for us all to enjoy, but you helped me, a guy who owned a G1 since launch but never rooted it, break into the rooting and modding world. I never knew my beloved Androids could be so awesome. Thank you and expect a bottle or two on me. ;)

Also, I'm not sure what's going on but I've been using my phone heavily most of the day (demoing it at Best Buy Mobile to my co-workers) with live wallpapers high brightness for 13 hours on 3g and it's now at 48% battery. I'm on Obsidian v1 and I never got battery near this good even on Fusion 1.1 OC/UV with JI2 and an all black background. Whatever you did keep up the fantastic work. Can't wait for more. :D

Finally: For those of you afraid to flash, I went straight from Fusion 1.1 to Obsidian v1 never having flashed a 2.2 rom before and it didn't wipe my internal sd card. I still backed it up to be safe and I suggest everyone do the same but just throwing that out there. :cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] j0hnZ:
Same, and if you download the wifi calling app from the thread with the app from the g2 it works. Moving the one from v1 didn't even if I put it in system app folder and restarted.
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
Can this Rom use a Lagfix? I seem to be laggy and glitchy with this Rom after playing around with it a bit. I currently have a LauncherPro + added on here because I didn't like the stock look could that be the problem why? hope I didn't waste $2.99 for it Lol
[Vibrant Android Development] tseada:
The file needs to be on the internal SD memory.
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
That's the right answer. +1
[Vibrant Android Development] atlaswingpasaway:
Off topic:

somebody tagged "tw buttfucked eugene" WTF?
[Vibrant Android Development] Rodriguez92:
Sorry if this has been addressed already but can we get rid of wifi calling I mean its using a lot of CPU.. Even when I'm not touching my phone its using cpu.. And to make things worse I never even opened the dammn app so why is it even running?

Sorry if this has been discussed but I don't see a NEED for it thats all.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
So what quadrant scores is v2 getting? I'm getting around 1400 w/ macnut I want to know if I should switch
[Vibrant Android Development] Dbarker 2:
I am getting around 950 with Obsidian V2, but I have not noticed any lag at all. The ROM is very snappy and regardless of the Quadrant score being lower, I am loving it! Great job Team Whiskey!
[Vibrant Android Development] dgsmith90:
By default it runs in the background and tries to connect to the T-Mobile network while on a wifi connection. What you would need to do is open it and turn it off.
[Vibrant Android Development] snorge:
Maybe instead of rushing this buggy rom out you should have tested it a bit. I guess you do what you can to release at the same time as eug but his roms are the real deal not this hacked together junk.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougefresh91:
I had the same issue on my mac. I don't know why the file wouldn't transfer to my phone, but putting it in dropbox worked fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] RobBull69:
This rom is very stable for me. Whatcha talkin' bout Willis? I like Eugene's Macnut as well, but it has a couple of kinks that need to be worked out. Blurry mms and mounting issues are a problem with all Vibrant Froyo roms, including the unofficial release. It's been less than 72 hours since the devs got the leak. Gotta have some patience.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sinned24:
Ok anyone else having a problem accessing folders via the PC thru USB mode? I can get into every folder but the custom ones I made on Phone Memeory(I.E. 12GB not the 2GB(avatar SD)). It says I dont have access to these folders anyone else have this problem?
[Vibrant Android Development] teh_lorax:
Please tell me what that score REALLY means to you
[Vibrant Android Development] ogerisg321:
Anyone else having issues downloading apps from the market? It will download the apps but will stay stuck at "installing" stage but never install.
[Vibrant Android Development] sublimnl:
Yes
[Vibrant Android Development] Gigamaster89:
Anyone tried the wifi-calling?
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
and also backup your internal and external sd card. I dont believe its ever erased the external sd, but if for sure might erase your internal
[Vibrant Android Development] JeremyNT:
The GPL only applies to core android components (including the kernel) but doesn't apply to any of samsung's artwork or any of the bits that they haven't expressly released under the GPL. If you want to get technical about it, nothing that uses any Samsung proprietary code should ever be redistributed without permission; that means any ROM that includes anything touchwiz, and (in fact) any ROM that includes RFS support.

So, basically, any ROM that will work on the SGS is operating in a grey area at the moment. It's by the graces of Samsung that they don't send takedown notices all across the board.

Now, all that said, I'm a little frustrated that the modified 2.6.29 kernel sources used by the custom kernels floating around here haven't been made available. If you're looking for a more straightforward GPL argument, that'd be it; the kernel itself is actually GPL'd and any modifications to it would have to be as well. The whole legal grey area about the leaked stuff doesn't apply there, since that's based on official Samsung GPL'd source code originally.
[Vibrant Android Development] player4lifeov:
I don't know if to flash this or eugenes Froyo version. Ahhhhhh so many roms, can't decide. I just finished flashing bionix fusion 1.2 w/vcore3 and then saw this! I am happy that i have many options though! Thanks TW
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
This comes with the new TouchWiz 1.1 launcher? How is it?
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
I appreciate where you're going with this, I really do.

I'm just not sure we're on the same page here.

I mean, I read the OP where Sombionix states how this is still very close to a stock Froyo ROM with a few modifications.

I seem to have missed the part where 'Assume this is EXACTLY like Bionix Fusion' was written.

My bad :)
[Vibrant Android Development] rpope904:
You seriously suck ;P JK Love the new rom dude. Was on eugenes rom for a while, lagged and too many issues, flashed back to bionix last night.. And, here we go again.. I was fixing to go back to eugene's 2.2 update, until I saw yours.. Honestly dude your roms rock his any day. Thanks dude, you're awesome!!
[Vibrant Android Development] blackerwater:
drama drama drama
[Vibrant Android Development] cheerioman:
Yes, I just did and it works fine. It does a little chime if it senses you going out of wifi range.

Of note:

My calendar isn't syncing with Google...anyone else having this problem?
[Vibrant Android Development] turbosix:
viral said the oclf app works on this rom, that's the only reason we are bringing it up.
[Vibrant Android Development] lralexl:
This is unnecessary and childish.
[Vibrant Android Development] crazygamer1:
No need to be such an ass. This guy is doing you a favor by developing awesome ROMs for your phone. You have no right to go correcting people's language, especially when you have nothing of your own to contribute. And if you really want to go down this road, the language YOU'RE using doesn't seem to be great either.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
I love eugene and appreciate all he does, but your right, I choose bionix any day of any week on any planet..
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Long story made short, if anyone has any questions about GPL or code they are MORE than welcome to see me.

Supercurio came to us and we talked about porting Voodoo in its latest release with someone else working on backlight notifications, we opened a joint git and started uploading.

Its not like its some super secret recipie for ultimate power and control, its a few kernel mods, if you really wanted to work on something all you ever had to do was ask. Yeah, it should be made public, in truth its on my list of crap to do. Weve been a lil busy.

Anyone whos ever come to me and asked a specific question about how ive done my best to answer quickly and fairly, that is the essence of what youre asking for and its always been my policy. Nobody before us ever released their codes for kernels and mods, and weve done everything we can to explain how its done other than hand you a makefile and have you label it your own.

If you want to know why the GPL is worked in the grey ask King Kang, its HARD developing and making something, pouring your time and energy into it just to have someone pretend its theirs. Developers protect their time investment by working together directly. If you dont believe me, ask Dudes and Ciwrl from Cyanogen, ttaball here on XDA, Supercurio from Project Voodoo.

Hope that doesnt come off short or blunt, but this isnt the place to discuss it. PM me or hit up freenode IRC and Ill be more than happy to talk about it.
[Vibrant Android Development] rakeshchn:
STOP IT dude!!!!! You are in Obsidian thread and why just dont talk about this ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] rembonjaski:
The contents of my internal and external SD were untouched (flashing over Fusion 1.1).

Wifi calling keeps dropping for me - but my router is really old, so not going to blame the phone on that one.

My calendars isn't synced either. Sometimes it just takes a few hours.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
I love you, turbosix :)
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
ah, that harsh world of criticism.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
Let's try to keep this drama free, please.
[Vibrant Android Development] importbeats:
Don't take it too personal, but it's really funny when ppl start bashing and complaining about roms. 1st off, if you don't like it, don't use it. 2nd, every one has their own version, they're all the real deal.

I used both, both have problems, and at the end, I personally think Obsidian is better because of the way I use the phone. The look and feel is good. Battery life is 10x better now. Very few bugs, none of which I care to even complain about. Smooth rom. Smooth like a sweet shot Jameson and a pint of Guinness.

3rd, if you have so much to say, make one yourself.
[Vibrant Android Development] importbeats:
I got 2200+ with OCLF on Eclair. 1300+ on Eclair with voodoo.

Now with Obsidian Froyo, I get 850-900-ish on quadrant.

My phone is A LOT faster, smoother, and snappier with a score less than half of what I had with OCLF on Eclair. It's like comparing a P4 cpu to an i7. lol

Just about everything works fine. I see ppl post stuff about the market not working/installing doesn't work right, and whatever other stuff... I've used all that and seems like no problems yet. Like what everyone should do, if it seems messed up, re-flash. If it's still messed up, re-download it and re-flash. Not all phones are made equal, but if it's working for someone, its gotta work for you too.
[Vibrant Android Development] ogerisg321:
This starred happening in V2 not in V1.

So I'm going to go back to V1 and hopefully when V3 comes out it will be fixed.

For some odd reason, I can't access my contact or Handcent.

Back to V1 for now.
[Vibrant Android Development] importbeats:
I had v1, now on v2. Everything works for me on 1st flash attempt. Try re-flashing, rebooting 2-3 times if u want. I quickly went thru the main stuff, seems to be fine so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] kolyan:
You must be the stupidest moron in this whole thread.......a side from ther morons who flooded this with stupid questions that have been answered 100 times before.....
[Vibrant Android Development] NikolaiT:
Eugene, sombionix. Take it to the PMs or IRC please, before this results in a bunch of noobs flaming eachother over which persons ROMs are better. Now, mind you I know what Eugene did was a big deal but this thread isnt for argueing who was wrong and who was right, etc.

You could get a lot further if you two talked calmly, over	IRC perhaps.

"How should I know if it works? That's what beta testers are for. I only coded it." ~ Linus Torvalds

And stop the whining, if you don't like it flash back to stock, get the TMO OTA, and cry them a river.
[Vibrant Android Development] hussarfilms:
You may not, but there are plenty of us that do. If you don't dig it learn to uninstall it.

'nuff said.
[Vibrant Android Development] pilotpeter:
where can i download v2 of obsidian? its not on the teamwhiskey website?
[Vibrant Android Development] m00nshake:
Got v2 straight from the link on OP, which appears to be direct dl link from Team Whiskey site.
[Vibrant Android Development] Ultraman666:
first post 3/4 of the way down you can download it there
[Vibrant Android Development] BrockSamson:
Thanks for the nice rom!

one problem:

GPS does not work for me in either V1 or V2.

It will gather up to 11 satellites

but will not ever lock.

I tried cold start, hot start, Clear gps data, accuracy to 100....pretty much everything I could change I tried.

Which sucks, because I have to drive 6hrs tomorrow now with no GPS.

Also, for what its worth, GPS never worked on tmo's 2.1 ji6 either.

Maybe I got a bum gps?
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
Not ready to run this full time yet...can I just flash back to fusion 1.2 problem free?
[Vibrant Android Development] sublimnl:
LOL, boohoo :p
[Vibrant Android Development] sublimnl:
yes, I think 1.2 included a kernel. just make sure that it does before you flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] glensta:
+ 1. Well said - thank you.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
Yeah I knew it had the kernel and should work ok, I was just verifying that there were no other issues in going from 2.2 -> 2.1. Just flashed 1.2 then restored my nandroid backup and I'm back to where I was.
[Vibrant Android Development] ribasj:
what about samsung apps?
[Vibrant Android Development] hotadef:
I found a bug. I dont know if anyone has experienced this and unfortunately i dont have logcat. but anyways im at work sent text have very lil signal lost signal while sending. message pops up saying that it will finish sending when it gets a signal. well i moved phone got signal message kept flashing. i back out of message screen to home screen that message followed me it would not go away with out rebooting
[Vibrant Android Development] captanabolic:
agreed

EWWW Stock ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] JLundberg:
Vibrant is going in the right direction

Hey everyone,

I've been using V2 since it came out and I have to say I feel it's the best Froyo based rom out there for the Vibrant. Note I said "I feel" everyone has their own way of testing and their own way they use their phone. Yes there are a few things not quite right but Team Whiskey is moving in the right direction.

My Vibrant feels very smooth and has not rebooted or locked since I installed V2. So far everything I use seems to work. GPS locks on quickly and is at 10 meters. BT works. Alarm works, market has a little problem but if you cancel download and try again it usually will download and install. Battery is doing a lot better on this rom then any other Froyo based I've tried. I went to bed at 11:00 with a full charge and only had BT and alarm clock running. At 5:30 this morning my battery showed 98% Very good in my opinion. The other rom I tried a few days ago went to 82% and was set the same.

Again, no reboots or lockups as with other Froyo based roms I've tried and after running for almost a day it still is quick.

Thanks Team Whiskey. Keep up the great work. Another donation will be on it's way soon.

John
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
This has to be giving the best battery life of any rom I have ever used.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Haha apparently you suck eug **** or something, but don't come here bashing a rom, if you don't like it, don't use it, speaking of hacked together junk, have you checked the mirror lately? (:

[Vibrant Android Development] rjscott2005:
If you did anything to the phone before allowing 15 minutes to pass and then rebooting, then that is the cause for any problems you're having. Please read the OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] rjscott2005:
Uninstall anything that you don't want.
[Vibrant Android Development] adinis78:
3 things i have noticed since installing Obsidian v2, i do not know if anyone has come across these since there are so many posts to go through:

1- on the camera when i click on the self shot icon on the upper left hand corner i get camera fail, is this for the FFC? or is it a bug?

2- while looking through Titanium Backup and Root Explorer i came i across Samsung Apps but there are nowhere to be found on the phone any way to enable that. i even ran the installer via Root Explorer but nothing. any suggestions?

3- while looking over Movil App i noticed that it comes with a message "A Mobile Hotsopt plan is required to use this service. Please go to att.com/myWireless or dial 611 if you do not already have this service provisioned." What does that mean? are we going to get charged for using this? and why does it say att.com?

also i noticed that i had to import all my contacts from my SIM to my phone as i was only getting only 10 contacts and i went in on the display options and check everything to display but i was still getting only 10 contacts, very strange, the phone should automatically read the SIM and synch with google but it didnt in my case.
[Vibrant Android Development] gab1972:
I would like to offer the advice of learning to ignore others. It sucks when people post with nothing useful to say ("flashing now!", "waiting to boot up", "my cat just farted"), but it's even worse when people bash others.

Stop bickering and don't get suckered into a pissing match - because if it keeps up, I'm sure a lot of us remember the time CM shut down his entire thread on here right before a major release because people were b!tching! Sombionix has the same power.
[Vibrant Android Development] rjscott2005:
Hmmm... This release is working quite well for me. If it hadn't, I would have tried to work through the issues or reverted to one of my backups. While I'm not a developer I do understand the purpose for which these forums exist. One might endeavor to do the same.
[Vibrant Android Development] rukawa2k:
Well, I upgraded from Bionix R1 to Obsidian. Every thing went ok until I did Titimium backup. Now my "Phone"(Dailer) and my Web Broswer icons are gone. Is there anyone to reset to default setting? I tried to reflash using Rom Manager, but it does not work for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
Just turn the damn thing off under settings, it gets turned on as part of tutorial. Stop advocating to have it removed just because you have problem!7

Help! I Cannot Get My Internal SD to Mount In Recovery!

Hey, I cannot get my internal SD to mount in order to flash Obsidian V2 in Clockwork Recovery. I tried disabling USB Debugging and setting storage to Media Player, but this didn't work either. Any ideas? I thought about nanding back to 2.1, but I cannot even get to my nandroid backups.
[Vibrant Android Development] Ultraman666:
Has anyone flashed the Core v2 Kernel yet, with this firmware.... any better??
[Vibrant Android Development] dbknottyboy:
3 things....

1. this rom is so far the best i've tried among all the froyo roms..

2. however, i guess it is normal that when using flash in websites, the performance of the phone gets really slow and sluggish, especially when the flash is loading huge data files. i find that very uncomfortable and annoying at times. i even find myself biting my lip, pulling my hair, making noises as if that would help to speed up the process. but hopefully, as i believe, sombionix and his team will work it out and make it a satisfying device for all the users to enjoy.

3. i'd be glad and willingly, from the bottom of my stomach or whatever is there, to donate to the whiskey fund =)

cheers ya'll!

-greetings from London
[Vibrant Android Development] almackska:
I had the same issue. I was able transfer the file to the external sd card and use astro to copy it to the internal sd card. however you may just wanna consider flashing back to factory firmware then reflash.
[Vibrant Android Development] jgiard6:
My problem is a little worse. I cannot even get my internal to mount in recovery. Anyone?

[Vibrant Android Development] lqaddict:
Wait before your phone figures out the battery capacity.

I unplugged it this morning, cleared the stats, and on the way to work was browsing XDA, engadget, and a few strongbad emails :) while Pandora was running - I am now unplugged for 4 hrs 15 mins with 73% left

Display is at 80% battery usage.
[Vibrant Android Development] Preech2003:
Hey Bionix, Would it be possiable to import the Android 2.1 BlueTooth Stack From CM6.1 into this Froyo JK2 ROM?????

This BT 3.0 really sucks. It dosent even move data at 3.0 transfer Speeds even with a 3.0 USB doggle. Samsung said them selves that it isnt full 3.0 BlueTooth

There is no HID support for keyboards & no Wii Remote/WiiMote Support.

So would this be possiable...
[Vibrant Android Development] lynx86:
I had the same problem so I just downloaded launcher pro in the mean time. My titanium backup wouldn't even finsh through its whole batch restore.

Please at least read back 10 pages before asking questions. This apk has been posted about 3 times in the last 10 to 30 pages.

Mine did that same thing this morning. To get it back from home screen I hit the menu button, then add, then shortcut, then applications. Found them there and was able to add back to the tw launcher.
[Vibrant Android Development] ocfury:
Hey, is any one else having trouble copying files to the sd card? Actually I know how to read and have not installed this or any froyo rom because of the tons of people with the sd compliant. I just had to make fun of the people that have more money then common sense and mess up their phones and waste everyone's time by posting before reading. This post is useless as well but more then 90% of this tread is so im just trying to fit in

I just wanted to say thank you for this rom.

This is the first rom I have flashed (and have done both v1 and v2 now with no issues. (other then missing the wifi calling)

Thanks for the good work.
