Here it is again. The one and only GothicKangedFroyo ROM! I have implemented a couple changes from the first version of the ROM. The basics are the same, but the framework is different. The framework mods that I did are only the start of them, the more I learn about how to edit the framework the more changes I will do. I warn you I am teaching myself how to modify the framework, but don't worry the only things I will post here are going to be ones that I know will boot up when flashed and won't soft-brick your device.

How to Flash my ROM coming from Voodoo

Actually this is fairly simple, but I will explain it. Create a blank file using a text editor and titled it disable-lagfix, remember you have to have it completely blank nothing in there for this to work.

After you have finished that delete the extension from the file and place it on your internal SD Card in the folder entitled Voodoo.

Reboot Your phone, and you should hear the little voice on boot that explains that voodoo is being disabled.

After Voodoo is disabled flash away.

This ROM does not include the Overclocked Kernel, but you can easily flash it over from Eugene's thread. The purpose of this ROM was to kang different things that I liked from other ROMs so don't hate the fact that somethings are the same as other Froyo ROMs out there.

I will give credit where credit is due though, Eugene for providing an amazing base for Froyo ROM development, Cyanogen just goes without saying, GamerCore for the idea of including the MIUI Browser, and Vazguard for the Fluxed Theme. Anyone that I may of missed I am sorry, but thank you none the less.

Many many props goes out to my beta team,

Vachea, _MichaelAngeles, Ray Walters, and OgreRocks

GothicKangedFroyo_RC2

Mirror for RC2

DISCLAIMER: I ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR BRICKING OF YOUR DEVICE WHEN FLASHING MY ROM! IF YOU HAPPEN TO BRICK YOUR DEVICE WHILE FLASHING MY ROM BECAUSE YOU MAY OF FORGOTTEN TO DISABLE VOODOO LAGFIX DO A SEARCH OF THE FORUMS AND THEN YOU WILL FIND YOUR ANSWER. IF BY CHANCE YOUR NAME IS MICHAEL ANGELES AND THAT IS YOUR THING TO COMPLETELY BRICK VIBRANTS ALL THE TIME, THEN I CAN DO NOTHING FOR YOU EXCEPT SIT BACK AND LAUGH. I MAKE NO IMPLIED OR EXPRESSED WARRANTY ON YOUR DEVICE BASED ON IF YOU FLASH MY ROM. I AM NOT GOD I CANNOT BRING THE DEAD BACK TO LIFE, BUT I MAYBE ABLE TO HELP WITH A DEAD VIBRATOR.

I'm trying to download but it stops after a second stops downloading? I have enabled browser downloads in astro already

Sent from my frozen yogurt vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
anyone running it yet?

Gothdroid got a few questions for you:

1. in both of eugenes roms and simbionix's roms i see a couple common problems people are having: gps, data, internal or sd card problems; since this is based of eugenes, are you having the same problems? anyother problems?

2. does this wipe internal sd if coming from 2.1?

3. do we flash from clockwork recovery (not odin correct)?

4. anything else we need to know about flashing this or setting it up?
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I've heard people have been having problems with 4shared and their phones, I'll try to mirror it on megaupload
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Ok thanx I guess I will get back to work in the mean time

[Vibrant Android Development] deez1234:
To download from 4shared on your phone switch the web page to classic view and make sure ROM Manager is installed.
[Vibrant Android Development] deeznutz1977:
If you have problems, open astro. Go 2 pref. is an option 2 check that says allow all downloads in browser, check that. You will then be able to download from 4shared. This looks awesome dl'ng now........ Thnc
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Ok just tried it your way and still no go. Oh well I just wait till he posts mega :(

In my beta tests of the Rom, I hadn't noticed those types of issues, has been running smoothly for me so far...

I hadn't seen any issues with data loss coming from 2.1, but that seems to happen randomly, so backup just to be safe.

And yes It's a clockwork flash.

I generally, with roms on the vibby, let it sit for about ten min after first boot without touching anything, then reboot before using.

Has run great for me so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] ryangera:
Thanks for the tip, nit the astro changed nothing for me. Ill wait.
[Vibrant Android Development] speedysilwady:
are blurry mms issues fixed in this rom? thats a REALLY nice theme!
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I haven't noticed the blurry MMS, but then again I compiled the MMS from CM6 source, and direct download link through MegaUpload is coming as soon as its done check OP shortly
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Is there any way to put the circle battery indicator from macnut 10 on this rom?

Sent from my frozen yogurt vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
all i have to say is i love the boot animation.. it is by far 100000000 times better than any i have ever seen on this phone..MAJOR ****ING PROPS
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
I should be able to flash right over macnut 10 w/no problem right? And would I just flash the kernel from r10 in rom manager once I get this bad boy running?
[Vibrant Android Development] jmatic:
Notification bar and pulldown looks just like Axura.
[Vibrant Android Development] nanim0n:
Oo mann them icons look fuglyy. Other than that looks good
[Vibrant Android Development] C-4Nati:
how's the battery life on this?
[Vibrant Android Development] speedysilwady:
just flashed 10 minutes ago, i love the icons and theme, and its very smooth bugs ive found:

-Wi-Fi says connecting, authenticating, then disconnects repeatedly.

-GPS will not lock anywhere near my actual location, i get a huge Blue area even after a reboot and waiting several minutes

-Flash Player will not Update for some reason

Oh and Blurry MMS is FIXED, this is the only vibrant froyo rom i know of that has it fixed! Compling from CM6 source did the trick for that!
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
awesome rom but no swype..... epic fail

anyone know where to get the swype apks
[Vibrant Android Development] speedysilwady:
someone posted flashable swype keyboard in the apps section last week i believe. try searching there. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
thanks for the heads up ill go look over there
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I know of the couple of problems with the WiFi and I've personally had no problem with GPS getting a lock on my phone, but I will look into it, as for swype I am including it into RC2, and yes the the Notification Bar is the same as in Axura, the whole point of this ROM is basically take everything that I like from all the other Froyo ROMs and combine them into mine.

With the flashing over Macnut_RC10 you can flash it right over it and don't have to flash the kernel, it's already in there.

Battery life is decent I'm getting close to 10 hours of battery life with GPS on and WiFi on.
[Vibrant Android Development] C-4Nati:
Ok well obsidian has the best battery life so far hopefully this is close but i won't flash til the second one is out
[Vibrant Android Development] renocivik:
Mind if I make a few suggestions for this rom...

It looks amazing... but I KIND of agree.. the icons are alright.. but not my fav... maybe a flashable/pushable file to revert back to stock? also the above thread with the the battery mod... i think that mod should become standard..

also... check out the i9000 section.. there is a thread about notifications via the touch buttons ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=813389 ) nobody has implimented this yet on the vibrant... and he mentions it being easy to implment in a kernel.. that would be beyond awesome!

EDIT: Here is a direct link to the GIThub w directions to impliment ... there is an app as well on the above link that lets you control the BLN (back light notifications) https://github.com/project-voodoo/backlightnotification/tree/master/kernel_patches/
[Vibrant Android Development] speedysilwady:
Thanks for the quick response! I have no idea why it wont lock right, cuz it did fine on macnut. i have wireless location, gps, and sensor aiding enabled, and i tried disabling sensor aiding but no dice.i flashed the rom twice and wiped everything including dalvik cache just to make sure it was a clean flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
Could you get me a logcat on what's happening when you try GPS, so I can see what's going on?
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Removed, thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] drewtang:
Deleted
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I will be updating tonight with a new framework mods, I was requested by Master(tm) to remove the ROM for the time being, I will post RC2 in the morning while I work on changing the framework to my own. I understand the rules of kanging, and since I was asked I removed the ROM, so I did.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Great job I really like will try out GPS in a few minutes I will let you know how that goes. I tried installing swype myself but had no luck. I really like the one on fusion 1. 1 by the way boot animation= lmao. Effing. Awesome bro
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Don't sweat that s **t man I'm sure you can do some thing just as good without Axura in it
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
BTW I tried GPS and it was kinda of a pain i had to tinker with it for a bit once I got on the freeway it locked fairly quickly. Battery so far so good.
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I'm over it already, I just modified the framework and signed it myself, should come out to be a little bit darker more gothy. Going to flash the zip as soon as it gets done and signed.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Lol can't wait. I will be up for about another hour hopefully It's up by then
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I'm not going to be posting it on here until tomorrow afternoon, have to let a couple people test it out first before I release to everyone, sorry its partially an OCD thing with me
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
No prob I guess I get some sleep then, I have some OCD issues myself so It's understandable better safe than sry. Good luck
[Vibrant Android Development] speedysilwady:
Hey Gothdroid I sent you an email with a logcat regarding gps not locking correctly for me
[Vibrant Android Development] ryangera:
I have tried all the new froyos, and this works the beat by far for me. Who knows why, but this is better than obsidian, onyx, AOSP, and even though its built off eugene's, this i've looks better. Im stoked. Very nice work.
[Vibrant Android Development] darknight260:
Has anyone else had the issue with the wifi calling hanging on enabling?
[Vibrant Android Development] renocivik:
Day later... but still wanna voice my opinion...

Coming from the g1 and a million dif roms being posted... more than half of which kanged something from someone somewhere.... what's this bs of rules... its all open source.... it would be one thing if you claimed it as your own work... but if you give credit where its due... there is no problem... team effort..that's what drives progress.... if master doesn't wanna share his work... dont post it on a public forum...

With that being said... keep up ur hard work.. love your rom.. dig the theme... check out my post a few threads back.... that would be some cool stuff to add..
[Vibrant Android Development] ryangera:
Oops, found issue. Market not downloading apps. Anyone else?
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
market works perfectly....

just wanted to say this is my favorite 2.2 rom by a long shot

keep up the good work !!
[Vibrant Android Development] ryangera:
Market is back. Some apps still not downloading, but I am in total agreement. Don't know why people are sleeping on this one, but it's the smoothest and best looking 2.2 out right now. haters gonna hate.
[Vibrant Android Development] ugokind:
??

I have *(ROM)Vibrant AOSPish 1.4 - JI6 based -

what is the procedure to apply this?

the AOSP.. has voodoo and ext4 fs

I'd like to test your rom.. but??

??
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
So this does have operable recovery access via the volume buttons? This is key for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
Hey, I will respect other people's wishes to remove something from my ROM if I am asked, and I was even if I don't agree with it. As for everything else,

Market Issues - This came from the build.prop setting I was using on the first iteration of the ROM, I can tell you right now that they are gone with what I am running right now

Applying this ROM coming from Voodoo, I will update OP with the instructions on how to flash from Voodoo to this Rom, but it is very simple create a blank txt file and save it as disable-lagfix put it on your internal SD in the Voodoo file and delete the extension. Reboot phone and wait as Voodoo is disabling.

Yes this has working recovery, I have never had an issue with recovery except that every once in a while when you are in the stock recovery and click flash update.zip it will reboot (go through Vibrant and I9000 screen) and then straight into clockworkmod recovery. Volume keys are working and are not reversed.

WiFi Calling - I know what you mean that it is just sitting there saying enabling... I am wondering if it is something to do with T-Mobile or within the app itself. I will look into that and let everyone know.

I will be posting the new ROM here in a couple hours, I just need to fully wake up and get some food before I finish up on the couple things I need to do with it
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
if it's based on macnut r10, the wifi calling enable hang is a known issue and is going to be fixed in a new release.
[Vibrant Android Development] Captainkrtek:
Thread Temp. Locked for Flaming, will clean

EDIT:

Thread Cleaned, Anymore flaming from any of you will result in further actions (IE: Infraction, Ban, Etc.) XDA has little tolerance of Flaming and fighting. The site it about development so keep it that way.

[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
Cool, I'm actually decompiling the apk right now and going to take a look at the code to see if there's something that I can do to get it working myself.
[Vibrant Android Development] iwillkillyou:
Haha my comment was removed, ok once again, can you put touchwiz launcher on the rom? I really do like it
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I'm sorry you won't see touchwiz in this ROM, I personally don't like it and I kinda started making this ROM for myself, and it just happened that I decided to release it.
[Vibrant Android Development] iwillkillyou:
Ok dont worry, I guess ill download it to the rom
[Vibrant Android Development] speedysilwady:
Gothdroid did you get my email with the logcat?
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I got your email and was able to fix somethings because of it, uploading RC2 right now with the new framework and other fixes.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Hell yea I can't wait.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Did u end up adding swype?
[Vibrant Android Development] ryangera:
Thanks for all your work. I have loved this phone from the moment I got it but I can honslestly say that I have never been more pleads with it than on this rom. I know a lot of it comes down to personal taste, but this is the best looking and best feeling my phone has ever been. Props props props.

Also, I ran anderdroid's AOSP 2.2 and got crazy batter life. I don't know if its worth reaching out, but it blew me away.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Man its about time someone made a red and black theme
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I added swype but I changed the build.prop so it won't work, will fix it on next release.
[Vibrant Android Development] killermaze:
Gothic eta? 1hr? 30 minutes? it's getting really late...i might have to flash this rom in the morning....
[Vibrant Android Development] killermaze:
disregard..i see its up..cool
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
OP updated with new download link for RC2, enjoy everyone, I know the framework is a little bit unpolished right now, but I am working on it. I am the only person fully working on this ROM, so please bare with me as I start working out some of the kinks with the framework especially.
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
thanks for your hardwork :)

are there any bugs we should be looking for?
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Bummer it won't let me download again it only downloads for a second then stops. I think my phone doesn't like 4shared for some reason
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
Swype won't work just yet, forgot to change settings within the apk it self and WiFi calling still hangs
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
After The Android Show I will load to a mirror
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Is it hard to install swype on my own?
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I just tried to see is I could push it to /system/app and get it to work and it didn't. I will include the proper Swype next time I update the ROM, for right now I have included a themed HTC_IME and the DroidX Multitouch keyboard.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
It's cool don't sweat it. I'm downloading as we speak thnx for the mirror, I wish I could figure out why it won't just download from 4shared
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
So I just installed it I like. Still snappy as hell. I like that you put the round battery indicator. I get off work in about an hour I will test the GPS then. Great job
[Vibrant Android Development] C-4Nati:
Let me know how the battery life is people, and can i flash this from clockwork?
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
GPS locked right on in about 1 or 2 minutes. Im satisfied with that
[Vibrant Android Development] Mouahmong:
Just to serve as an extra warning, when flashing this rom, it will wipe everything including sd card stuff so be sure you back everything up.
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
I believe that only happens when you flash from 2.1 to 2.2
[Vibrant Android Development] gothdroid:
I've personally never had that problem with flashing, but as it was said, it happens when flashing from 2.1 to 2.2 from time to time
[Vibrant Android Development] jtc442:
Happened to me one time, but it was my very first time flashing a 2.2 rom. I've gone back and forth from 2.1 to 2.2 many times, and it has never done it again.
[Vibrant Android Development] cwalker:
going to give this a try... what lag fixs work with this rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] bootsie99:
Flashing it now. I love the look from the screen shots. Hoping the battery is as ridiculous as the Team Whiskey builds.
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
im assuming you are referring to the internal sd right?
[Vibrant Android Development] Klyentel:
Just flashed RC2 this morning...and I gotta say I was blown away by the boot screen! I love it. Everything is working and running smooth. Great job man.
[Vibrant Android Development] bootsie99:
love all the work. A few colors were out of place and not really tight. But overall very nice! Love the apps you installed
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
Hey gothdroid is there anyway that I can get the android wallpapers that were in r1. I liked the half naked soccer outfit girls wallpaper.... it was like the last one on the android wallpaper list
[Vibrant Android Development] Klyentel:
I noticed swype wasn't swyping. had to punch the letters like a regular keyboard. I simply uninstalled and re-installed with swype installer. Other than that this rom is bug free for me.:cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
I notice some of the framework looks distorted in the screenshots, such as the toggle of controls in the pulldown menu (red indicators are not alligned) and the search bar widget looks chopped up, and it's also not even the froyo search widget...so what froyo components are missing from this ROM? I see so many great things about it but i'm a little hesitant since A. it's all themed up ( i usually prefer fresh stock looking bases ) and B. it's not completely based on jk2 as much as it is an experimental port, and seeing the non-froyo search bar makes me wonder what i'm really getting if I choose to flash this ROM.

How are people's recovery experiences with this ROM? I know the trouble with recovery is from my understanding with the JK2 roms such as AOSPish 2.2, but just want to make sure because I lost my last vibrant to AOSPish ROM because it wasn't made clear that trying to get into recovery will not only not work, but also brick the device...recovery is a comfort factor to us all and I think it's important to have operable recovery to give us reassurance that we can fix our problems without a bunch of headaches.
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
I've never had a problem with recovery. I can backup and flash fine

And if u read the op he said framework is not finished at all
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
Ok, fine i can deal with the framework, but i'm still really curious why it doesn't have the standard google search widget that should come with all froyo builds. Not like this widget is why I want this ROM, but what else is missing? I'm just confused
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Also remember this is his personal rom with the stuff HE likes. He is just sharing it with us so if something is missing it might be because he doesn't like it. I also went into recovery with no issues
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
I personally thing google search is completely pointless....
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
Same here
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
So I have a problem google voice is not showing up in market..... I need to check my voicemails lol

Tmo visual vm blows
[Vibrant Android Development] Joshochoa187:
It seems to be draining my battery pretty fast but I think it might just be my phone I have flashing rims 2 times a day almost for the last week. I might have to odin back jfd and restart all over
[Vibrant Android Development] ColbyRyptos:
I did that yesterday I odin to bone stock and then re roooted and freshly installed this and my battery life is pretty.good and I use internet and talk on the phone a lot and sync. Etc...
[Vibrant Android Development] Mouahmong:
Is it possible to get the Multitouch keyboard as a standalone apk? I tried pulling it from the rom and then installing it on Onyx R2.2 and it won't install and when I push it through adb it just forcecloses non stop.
