hi

i'm downloading the rom..

so because I saw that in froyo there are a lot of services that comsumes a lot of cpu.. such as wifi calling, download media, voice messaging

that are not useful.. specially if we haven't tmobile carrier and are in UE

and with the system panel I plotted that those (and others yes) programs kill the battery

but.. the question is: what is the procedure to apply a voodookernel .. and which one is better in froyo for vibrant? (CoreV2_12 or Voodoo-OC_UV-Kernel_v1.0CF or ??)

second.. shuld I improve sdcard internal in JFS or EXT4 Filesystem.. should I format It?

last question.. vital: can I remove some 'stoccked' apples such as titan backup etc.. ?

thanks in advance

hi Guys,

I also have the same issue, it is weird none the less. I have a headphone jack 3.5 connected to the aux of my car stereo, odly it did work with the old bionix rom. Then again that was 2.1. If there are any work arounds please send me a message

Thanks

I have flashed back to stock with Odin then reflashed this Rom.. Seems like the battery issues are about the same. I just bought a SystemPanel to monitor my phone and see what is chewing up the battery.

Basic steps I took to lower battery usage;

Lowest Brightest Display Setting

Turned off GPS

Turned off Wifi

That's about as basic as I went. Lol, but it seems that the battery is still being used when idle. Can't seem to figure out whats doing that so I'm hoping in a couple hours I will know since I bought the SystemPanel. Not sure if I want to get that Titanium Backup just yet to do the guide to make your battery last up to 24 hours or more. There is a thread on here that talks about it, but don't know if I wanna spend $6 on Titanium Backup. The free version didn't even load up the stuff that I backed up.

Other then that this ROM is amazing!!

i downloaded the sd_fix (spelled in brown under ......NEW VERSION.....) on the [ODIN] unofficial tmo 2.2 xda page (it linked me to another page where i actually downloaded the file, same location on the second page) then flashed using ROM Manager....and bingo bango bongo! hope you have similiar results....thanks everyone for all your info and help...you guys are the reason i keep loving my phone :-) !

After installing the Obsidian v2 I have had issues with transferring files. I have a Mac OS, I am able to mount my phone no problem, just like I have in the past.

However, now that I try to move files on and off my computer and phone I am getting Error Reports like below, and not letting me do anything. I have Fixed Permissions, Wiped Cache Partition, Wiped Dalvik Partition and still not working. Any one have any ideas? And don't post foolish things like for me to get a PC.

The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “Vibrant_AOSPish_JK2_v1.1.zip” can’t be read or written.

(Error code -36)

*This does this for ALL files not just the above mentioned.

SD Card issues

Hello all,

1st time install was a success! However, now I notice something:

I can't seem to access all my files on the SD Card due to the below error. Can somebody please explain to me the possible fix for this? I really do love my new Froyo software and would hate for this to be remotely considered as a deal breaker.

Also, this only happening for "Some" folders and not all. Another thing is that in using ASTRO, it comes up fine! I can even see all my stuff in Gallery showing up perfectly. very odd.

Rom Manager Fix

Hey, thanks for this help man. :eek: I was a little worried just for a sec.... :o

Good to go now. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Hippekuln:
I dont know if this is related to this ROM or not, but thought i should try here first...

I have installed quite a few apps from the Market by now, and one of them is Angry Birds. When i put the icon for this game on the homescreen, it stays there until the next shutdown/reboot of the phone. When it boots up again, its gone. This is the only app i encounter this problem with. I have searched and seen quite a few threads with disappearing icons, but didnt find anything like this. Anyone have any suggestions?

I love this ROM btw. Great battery life is my main reason for using it!

BEFORE INSTALLING REVIEW THE COMPLETE INSTALL GUIDE

https://sites.google.com/site/projec...allation-guide

...this link is broken...

**READ THIS**DO NOT USE ONE CLICK LAG FIX, THE KERNEL DOES NOT CALL THE PLAYLOGOS FILES ANYMORE BECAUSE WE ARE USING OUR CUSTOM INIT SCRIPT**READ THIS**

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.

...and these 2 statements both seem to be conflicting. So can we flash on top, which suggests you can use it with Ryans ext2 lag fix, which is known on the market as the "one click lag fix", or not?...

That didn't work for me...Clockwork kept acting as if it was installing for the 1st time even after 3 reboots. When I go to run the file it said the installation was bad. This after 2 files downloaded just to verify.

obsidian

Ooh, ooh, I know this one! Ahem, what they are telling you is to not use OCLF with the ROM you are about to install. The part referring to using "an ext2 lag fix such as Ryans" refers to the Rom or kernel you are currently using before flashing. It is safe to just flash over OCLF where it is not safe to just flash over Voodoo.:) CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, GUYS.

[Vibrant Android Development] allthrottle:
I've had very little issues with v2. Miscellaneous lag that's been very rare, acceptable battery life, overall more responsive "feel" than fusion was. I'm on wifi now, no issues with connectivity.

Don't get me wrong, I have experienced a fair amount of issues so far (force closes, freezing, and just some overall random weirdness), but it definitely feels more responsive than fusion @1.2ghz w/voodoo did for me. I know, wierd, but I wouldn't be sticking with this if it weren't.

Could someone please help me revert back to stock 2. 1 I have read the article on androidspin to do so but I have a hardware locked phone and not hardware nodding savy. I have odin v3. 17 and advanced but advanced refuses to start properly it shows the cmd box and immediately disappears I have Windows 7 I tried compatibility mode and still nothing and also ran as administrator.

Because I am having issues with calls on headphones not able to pull anything from my internal memory card and also not able to get any of my apps I bought from the market because they are not showing and also now t-mobile does not allow tethering with out paying additional $15 plus what if I need to send in for repairs I did do a backup but when I flashed the Rom it erased a lot of stuff on my memory card
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
ow ok, if you want to go back to stock just flash the JFD rom using odin, what i did was load the pit and tar file only in the odin. i didn't check the re-partition then i was able to get back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] raziel26:
That's great and all but you have to put the phone in downloaded mode which is something I'm not sure how to do because I can't hold the volume buttons and power and all to get to that point sorry but this is frustrating me to no ends
[Vibrant Android Development] Kubernetes:
The first thing you should do is Odin flash the hardware lock fix. This will allow you to enter download or recovery mode normally with the hardware buttons. You can find the file and instructions through the bible.

If you haven't already, download the Android SDK and the correct phone drivers for Windows. This will allow you to get to download mode through adb.

Missing New York Times App and Poor GPS Performance?

Hello there folks,

Just received my warranty replaced Vibrant after a USB / mounting issue which could not be resolved via any flash, ODIN stock, etc. Obsidian running smoothly but I cannot find the NYT app and when I try app brain it finds the app but then says it's missing. Also used to see many birds on GPS and lock within 10-30 secs, but now takes minutes just to find a bird, much fewer then when on Fusion. Also haven't seen many comprehensive comparisons of macnut versus obsidian, although I'm a big fan of TWhiskey. Any thoughts on the GPS drop off in performance and how I can get the NYT app back? otherwise, obsidian v2 with OCLF is running great. Did the cold start, supl.google.com with the appropriate port..

Thanks again for all you do..

Cheers,

Jellyculligan

What's up with the fact that double-tap in the browser is not working like it used to ? Has anyone anyone else noticed that you can't zoom in and wrap text anymore?

I use the browser a lot, but find the letters to be too small with the regular double-tap. In android, we've always been able to zoom in as much as we want and double-tap and wrap the letters within the screen. It appears to be left out of these builds. Did Samsung remove a vital feature??

Awesome rom guys. I noticed that if you download a flipfont from the market it works right; however if you download it from xda vibrant themes and apps page it causes an error resulting in an FC upon choosing "display" in the settings menu.

clockwork

Sorry new to all this and I looked for this answer every were but couldn't find it. my Question is with the clockwork recovery I get the basic idea of it but while reading threw the threads i'm confused with the kernal aspect so i saved root 2.1 with clockwork recovery then flashed to the new obsidian v2 which I also saved.My question is that if I have a problem with the phone would I recover using the 2.1 root or the new 2.2 and if I did recover to 2.1 would I not have the correct "kernal" and brick or soft brick the phone. and last question if i simply flashed back using update zip would i wind up back to 2.1 root ? without any problems including worring about which kernal i have sorry im sure this is a basic ? but couldnt figure it out on my own. really enjoy the obsidian v2
[Vibrant Android Development] Jackdog89:
I wouldn't recommend recovering to 2.1 from 2.2, I had issues with this before (screwed up my boot loader).

I ended up fixing my issue by flashing Bionix Fusion 1.2 (STOCK) which is a 2.1 version, then recovering my 2.1 backup.
[Vibrant Android Development] sigilaikin:
If you want to flash back to 2.1 make sure you flash a 2.1 kernel. Eugene has one posted I don't remember where, but if you do a search for "vibrant7" you should find it, or flash the latest bionix/fusion rom. The easiest thing to do is just use odin to flash back to stock and restore via nandroid. I've flashed back to 2.1 no problem. any questions feel free to dm me.
