[Vibrant Android Development] 8-BitNerd:
Great work once again. I am using your Bionix rom right now and it is super fast. I am surprised how fast 2.2 roms were released. I know this is version 1 but I was wondering is this running well in enough to download now or should I wait for future versions? Will there be a lot of changes to future versions? I don't like to change roms too often because getting my phone to run just the way a wanted after flashing is somewhat of a hassle.
[Vibrant Android Development] jwiley904:
I love this rom I only having one bug and its the connecting my contact through facebook and importing my contacts from the Sd card
[Vibrant Android Development] Insomaniac10:
yah, that is if my internal memory hasnt been wiped, that is what im REALLY afraid of....a bad flash did that to me once (is there an adb command that will allow me to view how much free space there is on my internal?)

PS - one last question, ODIN doesnt wipe internal memory, right??..................PPS yah ive single-handedly destroyed this thread
[Vibrant Android Development] ezadel:
odin, i believe when u odin to stock with JFD and PIT it wipes everything
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
Even with re-partition checked, it should not wipe your sd cards. Just the system data in the hidden partition (where your apps are and such). I would still always make a backup of everything to be safe.

stock keyboard

how would you get the stock android keyboard back? The android one?
[Vibrant Android Development] shawn605:
When I think of "ROM" I picture using a file to flash over all the contents of the phone, so that it's running a new [clean] image.

I saw some comments that effectively made it sound like that wasn't exactly the case... That moving from a 2.2 "ROM" to a 2.1 "ROM" required some wiping and what not.

a) What exactly does wiping do?

b) Can I wipe in between all ROM installs or do the ROMs require latent information to be there (that wiping would impact).

c) Can I flash TeamWhiskey's 2.2 ROM over any of their 2.1 ROMs

d) Can I flash any of TeamWhiskey's 2.1 ROMs over their 2.2 ROM?

I've just had very good luck going from 1.9.0 with and without lagfixes to Core V1. I don't want to continue flashing like a mad-man and miss some fundamental concept.
[Vibrant Android Development] Insomaniac10:
a) it wipes all of your apps/data and system settings and whatnot

b) i always wipe before flashing any ROM or before performing a Nandroid restore...whether its necessary or not is VERY rom specific

c) I did with no problems, but most of their ROMs wipe automatically when flashing anyway

d)

NO

!, because you will run into the problem that i had. you must flash a 2.1 kernel before reverting back to a 2.1 rom/restore from 2.2 or you will probably softbrick like my dumb ass
[Vibrant Android Development] dkobia:
Well, I see to have gotten past the initial bugs:

For USB Mounting, updating the Android SDK seems to have fixed that issue on my mac

For Calendar... just do a adb push CalendarProvider.apk /system/app with the file attached to this discussion

With that said... my phone is functioning so well on this ROM I don't even recognize it.
[Vibrant Android Development] tjsynkral:
People should not have to read through an 85 page thread, filtering through unrelated crap, to find information on how to make their phone not brick.

Info like that belongs in the OP or a wiki/manual linked from the OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] VICosPhi:
Thanks for the update on this :)
[Vibrant Android Development] lqaddict:
Guess what, framework-res is different between different firmwares.
[Vibrant Android Development] Insomaniac10:
yah that was my point, im not blaming Team Whiskey for anything that happened to me...in fact i freely admit it was through my own carelessness because i already knew the steps i was supposed to take when reverting so that i wont brick, i was just rushing and not thinking.

regardless of my specific situation and what i personally knew or didnt know, its vital info that should be inserted into the standard installation (or uninstallation, rather) instructions for this ROM, because if no one has ever run Froyo, or visited one of the Froyo ROM threads, they realistically would have no idea that they need to do this. Froyo is not necessarily a familiar concept to the average Vibrant user so with that said, kernel exaplanations/precautions should be brought out of the dark when making a transition like this. That way, not just for people who have no idea, but even for the people who have brushed across the info before but never had to use it (like myself), the info would be fresh in our minds and will be less likely to forget.

I think its safe to say that MOST members on this forum have good overall knowledge of our phone and how it works, and were are not nearly as retarded as we treat each other haha...but with that said, ultimately the averag user still relies on the developers and the information they give us, going on the assumption that they know more than we do (especially on THEIR "projects") and that by following their specific, detailed instructions carefully will allow us to avoid doing damage to our beautiful phones.

NOW, with THAT said, based on the above logic, if a developer doesnt mention something, shouldnt it be safe to assume that "something" does not pertain to what we are doing here? People cant magically know things that they dont know, if that makes sense. That was my ultimate point, im not trashing anybody at all, just looking out for all.

Haven't had this issue. Mine goes on to the next song like it should.

Stock Odin and headset

OK so I used bionix fusion then I got so excited and flashed Macnut 10.... then headset does not work when on the phone , so i odin back to stock ... then Obsidian came out.... so I flashed it still same problem with headset.. again I cant live without the headset so went back to fusion ... and now eugene has the stock froyo 2.2 on odin unmodified..... should I try it or i ll end up going back to fusion again?? ahhhhhhh
[Vibrant Android Development] Shane_pcs:
I am loving the ROM, but my wifi calling stopped working. I thought it was just my wifi flaking out but it no longer works anywhere. I was also thrown off by the change in the /mnt locations. My external sd card moved from /sdcard/sd/ to sdcard/external_sd/ and it broke all my playlists. Waiting on an update to squash some of these minor bugs.
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
I don't think the external_sd is going to get fixed, you are probably better off making a new set of playlists. I think Samsung intended to keep the new naming scheme so people won't get confused between Internal vs External SD, and imo so should TW.
[Vibrant Android Development] Chance Ill:
Anyone having MMS issues? im getting a server error....:confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
no mms issues here...

When is R2 gonna be released? I have OCD and keep f5ing/checking.. lol A general time frame would help this OCD...:D
[Vibrant Android Development] shawn605:
Understanding WHY this is the case, may help me be careful going forward...

So a kernel and ROM are not the same... ROMs cannot simply be overwritten over previous ROMs, but Kernels can be applied over ROMs.

However, a 2.2 ROM cannot be reverted to a 2.1 ROM... uhmm... How do I overwrite a 2.1 kernel over a 2.2 ROM (with a 2.2 kernel) - and why is the reverse ok?

... and I guess that begs the question - which 2.1 "kernel" can I flash if I need to go back?

... and maybe it was a fluke... But I flashed the 2.2 ROM... was unhappy, and flashed it back to Core V1... NO issues.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
As I stated already, R2 beta is available on the team whiskey forums, but I think it's in the donator section. So, that means probably in a day or so R2 will be released.
[Vibrant Android Development] ZombieDude00:
OCD here too :) any time frame?
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
Please check our forums.

http://board.teamwhiskey.com

We have just released Obsidian v2.
[Vibrant Android Development] megatherian:
Dropboxing v2 to my phone now, thanks guys, you are awesome.

I'm assuming V2 wipes?

With Titanium can I restore apps/data/system, apps/data or just apps?

Thanks again!
[Vibrant Android Development] frankencat:
Mmmmm Onyx... :)
[Vibrant Android Development] GalaxyS2k10:
Just get a package rom that includes kernel. Fusion 1.1 or 1.2, best pratice is never to restore nanroid unless you know that backup is 2.1 or 2.2. Nandroid does not backup kernel and that is why you don't restore unless you know what kernel you are currently running.

Bumping my Post

seems this may have gotten passed buy, just bumping it up, anyone else lost their hardware recovery key option?

and does anyone know if this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=804305&highlight=fix+hardware+locked will brick me? or fix me?

This deal seems important, have we all lost hardware recovery?
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
We will look into this for you. I know ViralBlack had a HW Locked vibrant, that was fixed with the update. I'll see if the buttons are still working when he wakes up.
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
lol, there's no way to please everybody huh. I want the fix from V2 but doesn't really want all the modified TW. :p
[Vibrant Android Development] disturkis4u:
I cant use titanium backup on this. It says i dont have root privileges. But i do.

I tried to install busybox using the app but it didnt work.

Oclf wont let me install lagfix. It says its unavailable.

I know this post will get lost in here so if someone could pm me to help.please?
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
please wipe and reflash. Sounds like you had a bad flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] disturkis4u:
I did. Earlier i bricked it trying to use zmod for it. Then i odin back to jfd, rooted, and flashed obsidian.
[Vibrant Android Development] rizzxx7:
Are you guys noticing really slow download speeds? Upload is fine but dl speeds are really bad via speedtest.net
[Vibrant Android Development] ward360:
Thanks

I wouldn't have noticed but everyone was talking about recovery and I just decided to check, this seems like It would be overlooked real easily until it was too late. :(
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
YES! Thank god i'm not the only one... something is up with the data connection. I posted earlier about this but seemed I was the only one
[Vibrant Android Development] disturkis4u:
I found this out the hard way this morning when i bricked lol. Thankfully i had debugging mode on and just used adb to reboot into download
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
So can we flash V2 right over V1????
[Vibrant Android Development] asko1981:
YES! Seems to be an issue with these froyo builds.
[Vibrant Android Development] adinis78:
i thought 2.2 would be faster than 2.1 but when i installed Obsidian and ran Quadrant i get the same numbers as if i was running 2.1. just wanted to put that out there. i will be waiting for a version with voodoo before i re-install....
[Vibrant Android Development] ajftl:
please try to fix the mms pic size..pics coming very blurry.. look like the messenger compress the **** out of it .. i think is around 50k.. blurry for incoming
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
In that case, I suggest you go and install OCLF, and you can see your score inflate as high as you want.
[Vibrant Android Development] tdonnelly0987:
I am also experiencing SLOW download speeds. I am on V1 not V2. Are there any improvement in V2 or should I wait until there is a fix to reflash?
[Vibrant Android Development] adinis78:
but isnt 2.2 supposed to be faster than 2.1 even without tweeking it?
[Vibrant Android Development] Steeltippin:
V2 ok ok some progress already in a day, let me sit back and see how this works for everyone. After the issues I read between today and yesterday off V1, hopefully this gives me the confidence to flash V2....;)
[Vibrant Android Development] jumaaneface:
it is faster than stock unrooted 2.1 on the vibrant. BUT rfs is still filesystem. so some slowness is still very apparent. but much better.
[Vibrant Android Development] Halieus:
search thread

oops I quoted the wrong reply. . . :) meant to qoute the one that meantioned not having to read 85 pages into the thread . . . .

it took me 1 minute to use thhe search thread feature to find out if the battery mod worked or not. A small amount of time doing research can avoid bricking your phone. Don't want to sound mean or flame anyone, but always search the thread first before flashing something that wasn't designed to work with your current ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] JLundberg:
Fantastic Work!!

SomBionix

PM sent if you get a chance to look at it
[Vibrant Android Development] MilkPudding:
Coz the Quadrant score is not an accurate display of how smooth and fast the phone actually runs. Froyo uses a different system and the quadrant test is not designed for that. In fact, a lot of the lagfix just tweaks the numbers on quadrant. There's a video showing on you could do that and have skyrocketing numbers on quadrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] Duce HD2:
So I was reading about slow data connection issue, is that depending on phone itself, or is it an all around problem with Froyo?

Wanted to flash tonight, but if there are data issues I'll wait a little longer...don't want to lose the little speed I have as it is.:cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] evanef:
Benchmarks are fun but... Obsidian/Onyx w/o OCLF shows ~900 quadrant and my phone is noticeably faster than it was with Fusion 1.2 w/ Core or OCLF with quads in the 2500 range. Everything loads faster IMO. A good baseline for me when I flash a new rom is to add a new icon to the dock bar and see how long it takes for all the applications to show and how much lag is present while scrolling down.
[Vibrant Android Development] Etrnaly:
Same here. I noticed it with Eugene's Froyo builds too. I'm getting only 600kbps down when I was getting around 3000 kbps down in 2.1. My u/l speed seems normal though. It's at 1350kbps.
[Vibrant Android Development] lynx86:
My phone won't come out of flight mode, anyone know of a solution to this problem?
[Vibrant Android Development] kennyp987:
I dont see a download link for v2 in the download section just obsidian r1...also...is the blurry mms fixed?

Vibrant + Obsidian + ext2 lag fix
[Vibrant Android Development] heatx:
Been using v1 since last night and I've ran into a few issues. Hopefully v2 fixes everything. Otherwise I love it.

On another note, I really like the stock touchwiz look and would like to request a version with that same style (squares behind the launcher icons, etc).

Thanks to sombionix for all the hard work you've put into your roms.

Sent from my Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] TheBrandonWRX:
Odin back to stock then flash, just reflash Obsidian or flash V2 soon as its up and hope it resolves the issue.

Any trick to getting into Clockwork recovery while in V1... trying to flash V2 and can't get into clockwork, just the stock recovery
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
Did you use OCLF? OCLF puts the phone into flight mode. and you have to manually take it out.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
in stock recovery, choose the 2nd option. phone will flash, and reboot to stock, choose 2nd option again, and you will go into clockwork.

Allo everyone,

having an issue since flashing.. I keep getting android.process.acore shutdowns. Is this a known issue? I have been going thru the pages, but I may have missed something in the 91 page search, lol. (And yes, tried searching the string just in the page.)
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
This looks like stock, aside from few extra apps and root. Will this come in Black theme as the Bionix Rom. I really want the dark theme, it preserves the battery a lot
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
this was an issue in v1. it should be fixed (haven't heard anyone getting the FC yet) in v2.
[Vibrant Android Development] psikys:
Hey guys. Just unlocked my phone using the code TMO gave me. I am currently running Obsidian V1 and I want to make sure that if I flash again, thr phone will still be sim_unlocked.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
it should be. it doesnt change anything in /efs
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
That's not working for me. Just keeps taking me right back to stock recovery
[Vibrant Android Development] a1cshowoff:
Holy crap, that was fast. Just downloaded and flashed v1, 30 mins later v2 is out. Thanks!

FYI about battery usage...ive been texting/listening to pandora and a bit of surfring. Pulled off charger at 830 am...its now 302 pm and im at 88 percent....also on full brightness. Battery reconditioning for the win! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
k, boot back into the rom and reinstall clockwork through rom manager.

If you are going from v1 to v2 you will need to do adb reboot recovery

we had a error in our init scripts which caused a mounting issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
With phone off and no cable plugged in,hold volume up and down,then hold on/off key till you see Vibrant,then release on/off key.

That puts me in recovery every time.

You have to then scroll to and click on,reinstall packages,to get into clockwork.

If after clicking on,reinstall packages,your taken back to recovery,press reinstall packages again.

I have to follow that procedure twice every time.
[Vibrant Android Development] ezadel:
try reflashing clockwork image
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
remember to install clockworkmod recovery first, also before booting into clockwork but after the download of clockwork go into your internal SD and make sure its there....

if it is try again just like before..
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
OH boy... never used adb before
[Vibrant Android Development] option94:
^^Wow.^^

Can't you just inform them its broken and ask nicely for a fix?

On another note,

Can anyone put up some mirrors?
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
Guys I ask again, will this come in Black theme as Bionix ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] rogerchew:
of course it will. TW never sleeps! :p but this was jsut released, so in all seriousness, we gotta give them some time to develop it...
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:

DISABLE ALL LAG FIXES BEFORE FLASHING!
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Take is elsewhere my friend.
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
Hey Krylon, I reflashed CW recovery and got back in. I'm now redownloading the new V2 file you guys just posted. The first one seems to be corrupt, wouldn't flash

EDIT: I should of known the file didn't download right, only took like a minute lol
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
Does this mean I have to reflash V2? I finished flashing just few min before link went down.
[Vibrant Android Development] ezadel:
installation instructions says :

"Installation Instructions:

Step 1: Disable Voodoo or other Lag Fix -

This is outlined for Voodoo users but applies should you have any other lagfix applied. This step only directly applies to those of you who are currently using the Voodoo lag fix. If you are not currently using Voodoo, please move onto step 3 for final installation instructions. If you are using an ext2 lag fix such as Ryans, you can simply flash on top."

so i can flash on top of OCLF haaaaaaaa:D
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
You shouldn't be downloading this from the TW site anyway, we haven't put a link up for Obsidian V2 yet. Just download it from the first page of this thread.
[Vibrant Android Development] option94:
Yeah flashing over the OCLF is fine, since a when the wipe is done before you flash, its removed.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
I would. I apologize, that was my bad.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
yeah, was going to say, server is SLAMMED right now, so it may be a little unresponsive.
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
Searched the thread and hte first post. If that answer is there, I missed it.

Can anyone confirm that the calendar issue is fixed in v2?

Im running the beta already, and the new download is called Bionix_Obsidian_V2.zip.

i think that was inlcuded in the "fix , fix, fix, blah blah blah " lol , but i'm not sure yet
