So, I have searched this issue countless times and for long hours. I'm very frustrated. If anybody has any direction or guidance, I would highly appreciate it.

Problem is this:

I've tried 4.2 and now i'm on V5. But on any TW Froyo Release, my External SD card takes FOREVER, I mean FOREVER to scan.

I've tried all the Bionix Final Roms, and all the Fusion roms. Fusion 1.2 is still by far my favorite. These previous roms have had ZERO problems. Despite my having a 16gb external, they scan through them like wildfire.

On TW Froyo V5, it has been painful painful painful. Extremely slow. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
You should flash stock ROM (Eugen's JK2 for example) with Odin first and then Obsidian with Rom Manager.
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
Try to find out what folder has many .GIF or .PNG or other meda files which need not to be scanned and put a blank file named .nomedia into it. Also you can try cleaning the SD from .thumbnail files.
[Vibrant Android Development] tenbeau:
See below

Was this meant for me? I am on the unofficial stock froyo 2.2 from Eugene which I used Odin to flash. I have flashed JDK before through Odin. Is there another Stock 2.2 from Eugene? So sorry for so many questions but I want to be sure as I do not want to mess this great phone up. Than you so much for your kind help!!
[Vibrant Android Development] shalpp:
For some reason when I try to transfer files to my phone it keeps giving me the "THE PARAMETER IS INCORRECT" error message.

Anyone know what could be causing this?

I'm running V3
[Vibrant Android Development] xanderdad:
Is there such a thing as a stock 2.2 kernal with BLN? I am perfectly satisfied with the performance of the stock kernal but I miss the BLN on thelis ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
Sorry, I've understood you wrong (thought you are on Eugen's Macnut ROM). But you are right. Just flash Obsidian with Rom Manager over the stock ROM. Don't be afraid of bricking - it's rather hard to brick our phone. Odin makes it almost unbrickable.
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
shalpp it's a known bug of v3. New version works fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] tenbeau:
I am going to try and flash it now, Thanks so much for your kindness and patience. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Edit: just finished flashing it and all seems to be well. Thanks again for the help and patience.
[Vibrant Android Development] a4 moda:
So as it pertains to my External SD Card TAKING FOREVER,

I reformatted the sucker.

And now, I'm copying the files back onto the card. It saying its' going to take 6 HOURS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF !!!!!!

Any body else having this issue? Is this a Leaked ROM Problem?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] denyson234:
No one more question I just installed Obsidian V5 Beta. I was thinking that this had the universal lag fix built in, but it does not. What kernel should I use with this?
[Vibrant Android Development] eguie22:
Ok I have v5 with a14 kernel, where do I download voodoo lag fix?
[Vibrant Android Development] denyson234:
never mind I got it. I think this is what I should use Team Whiskey Universal LagFix Kernel - Android 2.2 Only. This probably works better them the A10 right?
[Vibrant Android Development] a4 moda:
it's built into the lagfix.

Access ClockWordRecovery Console, and it will all be there.
[Vibrant Android Development] denyson234:
I don't see this on mine. I see advanced but not much inside. Do I need to flashclockworkmod recovery first?
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Are you using Obsidian Beta5? The ULF is not included. It's been pulled for now.
[Vibrant Android Development] denyson234:
Oh ok. Can I get a ULF for it? What should I get?

[Vibrant Android Development] Ph0z3:
im sure this is an ignorant question, but im new to samsung... so bear with me.

When installing this rom on a 100% brand-new vibe do i need to install a 2.2 kernel, or is it included in this rom? I know i need to be rooted and all that, wich i will, but if i need to do any stuff prior to loading this, please let me know.
[Vibrant Android Development] Troy@707:
Please add russian locale!!!

Thnx!
[Vibrant Android Development] flipassassin21:
nope just flash away man. but if you have any lag fixes enabled make sure you disable it.
[Vibrant Android Development] s1lenz:
I'm one of the unfortunate people that had their sd card wiped by v5 beta... it says to use ODin to flash back to JFD... could someone tell me what JFD is? thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
JFD is the standard Eclair build that the phone came with Originally.

Do you know how to use ODIN?
[Vibrant Android Development] flipassassin21:
I just updated to v5 and im having some issues with the market. everytime i try to install something it either just force closes or it just doesnt install. it says its downloading but than nothing happens. help please.
[Vibrant Android Development] naack:
i updated from v2 to beta 5

-GPS seems to be out of whack ( position keeps jumping fromplace to place after locking )

-market seems to be extremely slow at downloading. it might be an internet problem but it didnt happen with me before or at least i didnt notice it.

-battery may last a little less but i am not sure

other than that its great.. everything is awesome
[Vibrant Android Development] Pmoke:
The same thing happened to me, but it isn't installed. What you do is install the ext2 tools in oclf, then restore boot animations. Then you can do the lag fix.
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Not really sure but I think others are having problems with MMS sending w/ V5. I think the thread with the "Potential Fix" (did not fix) the OP was on V5 also but I'm not sure which kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Can't say for certain but those reporting Market issues may be isolated. I actually came back to V5 from another for the working Market. Anyway works perfect for me w/ V5 and Eugene's A14

3G Internet incredibly slow after flashing Obsidian...

Hey guys I've been googling for two days...cant find anything on this problem...

So I am having problems with slow internet on my Vibrant after flashing these roms in general...including 4.2 and the current one. I will have a 3G signal but the download speeds will be incredibly slow. The market shows download speeds of around 10kb/second, and Mobile AP download speeds and my phone's browser speeds are the same. After I disable APN and then re-enable it the data speeds are fine again. It only slows down again after the phone is at rest and i havent been using much data. anyone know what the problem could be?? Thanks...
[Vibrant Android Development] JD76:
** problem solved
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
i have a little big problem, i had 4.2 with ULF i odin back to stock (JFD), and installed v5, and now i have no network signal, odin back to stock and stock doesn't have network signal.
[Vibrant Android Development] charkey:
Flash v5 twice after you ODIN'ed back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] princearic:
Do you get the same result after a simple reboot?
[Vibrant Android Development] princearic:
Are you using any battery throttling apps like juice defender? To me, it sounds like an app related issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
Yes, same result, and after i odin back to stock twice.
[Vibrant Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
My wifes phone has tge same problem. Shes stuck on Obsidian v1 bc of it. It says there isnt a simcard have tried everything.
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
i guess is back to tmo and get a new one.
[Vibrant Android Development] cervantesjc:
nevermind i just reflashed v5 and now works perfect.
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
I got rid of A14 because I ended up getting the sleep of death and at one point for some reason my phone shut off on it's own and would not boot until I put my phone charger on it. I noticed that it was pretty good with A14 - Voodoo Lag Fix, but it was draining my battery every 30 minutes or less..

I am now on stock Kernel, with JI6 Modem w/ OCLF that came with the v5. Seems to be okay, but battery life is pretty much the same. After I let the battery drain and charge it all the way, I guess I will wipe my battery stats and see if that helps a bit. Hopefully, the official v5 comes out soon!!
[Vibrant Android Development] IDtheTarget:
I remember earlier in the thread somewhere, there was talk of that being a known issue with some modems in combination with some ROMs.

If I recall correctly, and forgive me for operating on very little sleep, you can download several of the modems from the Team Whiskey website. Two of them are for 2.1 eclair ROMs (Bionix Final and Fusion), one is for 2.2 ROMs (Onyx and Obsidian). I think JI6 and JI2 were okay for both. Again, I'm not awake, so read up on them before flashing! :)

Somebody help me out here if I'm wrong, but I think you download the modem.bin file and put it into a specific place in ODIN, and flash that way...

I know that this was rather vague, but hope it helps.
[Vibrant Android Development] established:
Why is my data speed so slow?
[Vibrant Android Development] DangerousDave:
I have read that some have had success correcting this by manually flashing the modem available from Team Whiskeys download site.

When trying to reboot into CW Recovery thru Rom Manager, my phone gets stuck at the Vibrant screen. Any ideas on how to get back into recovery?
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
This isn't technically ROM related. The issue is that because we are using leaked files, all Vibrant users that are currently using the leaked 2.2 files are registering the same android id on the market. Therefore, when there is heavy traffic on the market, you downloads will stall or you will have slow download speeds. I have a temp. fix for this in the next release which SHOULD resolve the issue until we get official files.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
And this next release is scheduled for when? :D

Thanks Som.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
If your phone is not hardware locked, you can hold the volume buttons and the power button when booting from a powered off state. When you see the vibrant screen show the second time, let go of the power button. Then you should get the recovery screen. Read through the links in my signature if you have more questions.
[Vibrant Android Development] rbaggio00:
i just flashed V5 Beta but when i go in about phone it shows 4.2. i flashed it 3 times already.
[Vibrant Android Development] Raistline:
I am running V4.2 ULF. I am loving this version and froyo is amazingly fast. Also completed voodoo off of ULF.

But... this ROM eats batteries for breakfast. I have never seen the battery go this fast, and yes, I have deleted battery cache.

Still, the benefits outweigh this one minor complaint.
[Vibrant Android Development] w_bovine:
Disregard that it says 4.2. It's simply that the file that has the version number hasn't been updated yet. If you flashed Beta5 you're running Beta5.
[Vibrant Android Development] DangerousDave:
I have read several times in this thread that the reason for this is that this is a beta version and the version number was not updated.
[Vibrant Android Development] atrainer:
I am also having trouble with the gps. Sometimes it works ok and other times it jumps around. When it does work, it is not as accurate as JI6.

The gps worked great with JI6, is it possible to apply the gps from JI6 to these ROMs? I noticed that the JI2 gps file thread warns not to use that zip on 2.2.
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
It's just a simple file that wasn't changed. All it does is show a version number. Doesn't mean anything.

But yes, usually once it's not beta or next update to version Som get's the version number read out corrected. No biggie

Love the rom, battery life and cell data seems to be better after i flashed Beta version, but there is only one thing... does anyone know why the bookmarks that come preinstalled cannot be deleted?
[Vibrant Android Development] theronw68:
If you go into manage applications and find web, you should be able to delete the cache and something else and that should give you a fresh start.

EDIT: clear cache and clear data

Messaging Force Close

I'm getting the following message every time I try to open the Messaging (SMS, MMS) app:

Sorry!

The application Messaging

(process com.android.mms)

has stopped unexpectedly.

Please try again.

I upgraded from v3 to v4.2, and had this problem. When I ran back down to v3, it was fine. Today, I went to v5 Beta, and had the same problem.

In v3, the Messaging app is represented by a Green Speech Bubble with a smiley face. In the later iterations, it's the TouchWiz version.

I always run Titanium after installing (170 apps), but I made sure this time to deselect the Messaging app before running the batch operation. Messaging definitely worked initially. However, when I rebooted an hour later, Force Closes began. I wiped the Messaging Data, no improvement.

Help! I don't want to be stuck on v3 forever! Searched the forum, but search sucks, and I couldn't find an answer.

[Vibrant Android Development] drew2000:
There are a ton of posts in this thread in the last few days about your issue so start reading and you will find your answer. The search is not perfect as you found out but this question is not an easy quick fix but sometimes reflashing again the V5 may fix the issue but I had to Odin back to stock then root and then reflash v5 again to get everything correct. The reason some reading will do you some good is because there are multiple different reasons and solutions to pick from. The other solutions I tried worked for some but not me so I went back to stock. To me this is the easiest and cleanest way to go and now my device is flying smooth and quick. You can try and flash a different modem first then try other options like what I mentioned but this is a problem with this "beta" I learned a lot after mine crashed but am in no way an expert and I am still reading........so I am not trying to be rude but if you read back in this thread to Sunday you will find a lot of help. Sorry the search function link did not help but the words placed in the search box is the key so try "no data" or "no signal" and this might come closer to filtering it for you.

here are the links for you:

It's the kernel not the rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] Rareutu:
I can confirm the poor data speed. And its on/off performance. And the occasional FC on market, aaaaaaaaaand...something else i forgot. Also, all my backups re-installed via Titanium didn't show up on the downloads tab in the market. Until i hunted a couple of them down by searching and manually updating. Then they all appeared. Though it took a few tries and i had to close the Market via task manager and re-open or cancel download and install again until they finished updating. Now they seem all there.

On the bright side, and this is huge for 2.2 rom in my experience, the battery life is outstanding. 10+ hours with moderate use. No 3% loss on unplugging.

GPS performance is also pretty good. I haven't run any tests, but yesterday it locked within 60 seconds or so on Gmaps.

I've had horrible experiences with other kernels, so i'm definately sticking with this roms stock.
