Auto reflash? Auto reapplication of lagfix?

While on the golf course today my phone ran entirely out of batteries. I got home and plugged it in, when I came back to the phone to check the progress of the recharge it had booted itself into Clockwork Recovery and was stuck at the "Config has changed....Yes, backup and restore" screen. So I chose "Yes, backup and restore" incase something had happened. Now, my gmail account is wiped along with all the installed applications...any idea what happened?

TIA
[Vibrant Android Development] jpnelson40:
I got into the same loop the same way, doing the battery recalibration drill. I was lucky and rebooted by holding down the power button. The options certainty aren't self documenting.

still using and loving this rom w/ the ulf... not a single problem really

accept a minor bug with the 3.5 jack... it plays music, but wont transfer audio out during a phone call if im not using the actual headset that comes with it. it used to before. no biggie really, its just a nice feature to have while driving and pluggin aux into my stereo...

great job team whiskey!

Visual Voicemail

How do I reinstall the T-Mobile Visual Voicemail? I did a search in this thread and could not find the info. Any help would be great thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] misteryibox:
can i flash this over bionix fusion 1.2?
[Vibrant Android Development] FRIEDjellyWALNUT:
Search for it in the Market.
[Vibrant Android Development] Duce HD2:
Yes, but make sure to back up your internal SD in case you're 1/20 that gets it deleted. If that happens you pretty much have to Odin back to stock, and start fresh. My suggestion is to odin before hand so you're safe.

Good luck

I flashed Eugene's A14 kernel on top of this and it's running beautifully. Same tweaks as TW's ULF kernel, but nicely tweakable OC/UV too.
[Vibrant Android Development] frankencat:
Really? Hows the battery life?
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
Does this ROM have some sort of screen capture built in? I don't need the feature so I never install them [last time I installed a screenshot program was back in the G1 days] but just now, the phone made the DSLR shutter sound and said it took a screen shot. I went to the sdcard and there was a screenshot folder with my android desktop on it. I am bewildered. Anyone?

[the phone has been odined more than I can count what is going on]

EDIT: I'm thinking it might be Plant vs Zombies I downloaded last night. It's not official so it might contain some malicious software. I don't know. I unistalled it. I got "Leave Devil Alone" anyway. It's a clone of PVZ
[Vibrant Android Development] defconoi:
the op should post a warning that flashing this will softbrick the phone and require odin to flash another rom
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
Maybe you did something wrong.

Nothing like that happened to me.
[Vibrant Android Development] hockeyrcks9901:
Lol. I'm running this ROM right now just fine and did not have to Odin anything.

There is always a chance of soft bricking when flashing any ROM...

holy **** this battery life is so much better than Macnut R12. Obviously. But it's a breath of fresh air for me. I can use my phone again. Funny thing is, the quadrant scores are less than 1/2 of what they were for me in R12, but the phone feels and IS a hell of a lot snappier. THAT'S what matters. Thanks TW!!!

idle "night" test. screen off, 3G on. 100% --> 40% in 9 hours instead of 2.
[Vibrant Android Development] Kubernetes:
Still checking it out, but better than the TW ULF kernel, IMO. The great thing is you can UV the kernel, and the shutoff voltage is much lower, so in theory it should last at least 50% longer.
[Vibrant Android Development] CBung:
I had this same problem. My phone ran out of batteries last night, I plugged it in this morning, looked again and it was in that menu. I chose 'No, go back to recovery' then 'reboot phone'. Then there was a strange problem with the lock screen, i went to swipe it away and it wouldnt unlock. So I rebooted again adn now am OK. Perhaps we should both avoid letting our batteries run out :)

Additionally, I have JFS overkill enabled.
[Vibrant Android Development] deadpass:
I wiped the data for swiftkey with ti backup, and rebooted into clockwork and wiped the cache but the problem persists. Any other suggestions I could try? I've also reinstalled swiftkey
[Vibrant Android Development] g1flasher:
X2 Had this happen to me at work.

I had to get off of this ULF kernel tho I couldn't even use my phone. lost 33% with my phone sitting on the table all by itself in 2hrs. Back on stock 2.2 kernel now and I've only dropped 15% in 7hrs. Not the greatest I've had but usable now at least.

[Vibrant Android Development] mannybeekause:
Hi, has there any work been done on that bug? I had no issues on 2.1 but 2.2 on most of the roms I keep seeing this problem.

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] creator2456:
Try wiping cache and dalvik cache through clockwork. That's the only other thing I can think of.
[Vibrant Android Development] samtcook:
is it just me or does the system volume like to reset itself to full volume all the time? is there a fix for this? I've had this happen on various ROMs, but it's been really bad today. What's the deal?
[Vibrant Android Development] Bossbollin:
My issue is with the pattern unlock. Yesterday my wife questions me about a text and I'm wondering why do I need to explain myself. Then it dawned on me (not that I try and hide it) but I ask her to go into my phone and she uses a completely different angle of the pattern to unlock my phone. Then I try it and swiping from any angle, any combination and it unlocks?!!! WTF? All I know is that I'm using ULF with Overkill non JFS.

Problem Resolved: Toggling off/on the pattern unlock option inside SETTINGS, LOCATION and SECURITY resolved the peculiarity. Very strange, but my overkill option remains enabled giving me 1700+ Quadrant scores! Thanks again Sombionix and the TW team for sharing your works.

Best ROM I've tried yet, ever since I started using this, my WiFi connection is stable and I can finally download off the android market (wasn't working on Bionix Fusion 1.2, reflashed twice) and could use Google Voice.

[Vibrant Android Development] jpnelson40:
In both Onyx R4.2 Stock and ULF I have noticed that when I use Navigation that my System Volume is turned up to maximum (I usually have it off). That doesn't happen with Google Maps (the one time I tried it).
[Vibrant Android Development] Sir Incognito:
Any word on when the ROM extras will be available for download again?
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
Looks to me like the site has the rom extras available at the TW site. Check it out. I just downloaded the blue segmented battery mod just now.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sir Incognito:
My mistake, seems that only the Universal Lagfix kernal is the one I can't download. Can you download that? I think maybe that link is down, not all the rom extras.
[Vibrant Android Development] MontanaFree:
Mines works flawless try to reinstall see what happens...
[Vibrant Android Development] Sir Incognito:
I think maybe you're mis understanding me. I've tried to download the Universal Lagfix kernal, both from my phone and my work computer. Says the link is down. I'm running Onyx right now on the stock kernal and I'm looking to dl the lagfix kernal and flash over stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] MontanaFree:
sir pm'd

Take a look does that help
[Vibrant Android Development] bagayas:

OK, I didn't realize there were problems with it. I'm on stock kernal now and it's laggy. I just wanna enable voodoo, has always worked well for me by itself.

Phenominal battery drain on stock kernel

I'm using the JFD radio which in the past has given me the best signal and battery life where I am most of the time.

I found my culprit, I think, using SystemPanel to be kswapd0, it runs at 7% in an 8-hr window.

I am also puzzled when browsing with Root Explorer. I find "sd" which reports the used and free space 1.12GB/11.66GB, the same as my internal SD, but doesn't display any files or folders. I also find "external_sd" which shows 23.62MB used and 14.17BG free, but it shows the file contents, and it's more like 4.5GB. I am reformatting the card, but so far with this ROM, or Froyo, or something, the card stuff has been funny. I bet I know why Samsung hasn't released it yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] rustybuddha:
System Volume level when running Google Navigation

I am not sure if this problem is associated to the ROM or the App, however I only started seeing the below issue after loading Onyx R4.2.

Issue:

I keep my System Volume (Settings > Sound > Volume > System Volume) set at about 25%. However, when I run the Google Navigation app the System Volume automatically goes to 100% and stays that way after exiting the app.

Has anyone else run into this issue or does anyone know of a work-around that will allow me to lock the System Volume at 25%?

Outside of that having no issues!

Lock Screens

Does anyone know where the lock screens are located? Also cannot get the phone to boot into clockwork recovery, could before flashing. Everything else seems to be working great for me. Flashed this rom over a fresh install of JFD through ODIN. Battery so far is awesome, was 63% when I went to bed 7 hours later its 61%. GPS is working perfect. It is running super fast with no lag fixes. Installed with the stock kernel.

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] jmartiuk:
Hey

First I don't think there is any other lock screens on this one.second I had the same problem with recovery just make sure the update file is on the root of your sd and just reinstall packages from 2e recovery should work just fine. I'm running onyx 4.2 with eugenes a13 kernel which is the cwm lagfix edition I love it you run the risk of wiping your sd though lucky I didn't gave that problem but follow those instructions and you should be fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] Goddie2010:
Hey guys im having trouble flashing this through clockword recovery...the message I get when I try to reinstall packages is...

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed installation aborted...

[Vibrant Android Development] Goddie2010:
Sorry maybe it would help to be specific...i can't access clockwork recovery...update.zip is not in any folder and on root of sd...tried rebooting deleting and reinstalling but nothing
[Vibrant Android Development] serge1231123:
Your battery life is better than mine by bed time my battery is dead. I do use Pandora a lot though so that might be why. Anyways, there is a theme flash on the TW Forums called matte theme it comes with new notification bar and pull down and all the lock screens (epic lockscreen being my favorite) also I think different battery icon and some other themed stuff. It's neat you should try it.
[Vibrant Android Development] samurai_war_lord:
Well everything is running smooth! fast UI with no lagfix. Battery life is good... but i got one problem: i have a billion system processes running even while i sleep! Sys Panel shows the CPU over 3% all night long. I had downloaded autokiller to see if it would control this but to no avail.

any ideaS?
[Vibrant Android Development] jlaval:
How can I change the lockscreen ? Pull it from another rom I guess?

Love this rom, thx!
[Vibrant Android Development] Duce HD2:
Did you make sure to flash CWR as well? ROM manager>click flash CWR>select samsung vibrant>reboot into recovery>reinstall packages>should go into CW recovery.

Maybe you did already, sometimes people forget that step after flashing a new rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] turbosix:
re download the rom. if the file signature verification failed, most likely you got a bad file and the script TW wrote is smart enough not to flash a corrupted rom.

FWIW, i have never had to do this with onyx, Rom Manager thinks CWR is not installed however my phone can get there no problem. it even quit doing that annoying "reinstall packages" crap where it took 3 tries to get into recovery every single time.
[Vibrant Android Development] Bossbollin:
Be sure to backup your SD card. I was one of the "1-20" that got wiped.
[Vibrant Android Development] wilkins.cc:
Browser closing out

I've noticed twice that my browser completely closed out without any warning. No FC or anything like that.

Also, I would love to see the stock calendar on this rom. This TW calender is terrible!
[Vibrant Android Development] jlaval:
couldnt find the matte theme in there, care to post a link?

thx
[Vibrant Android Development] frankencat:
Well crap, I must have been running the ULF kernel and not known it because yesterday I flashed the stock kernel from the TW downloads page and I am getting great battery life today. Sweet! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Goddie2010:
I don't have onyx now im still on the odin version of froyo for the vibrant and I was trying to flash I tried re downloading and reodining but nothing...

[Vibrant Android Development] misquia:
Just voted for Onyx 4.2, best ROM I've tried yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] heldc:
Just flashed, LOVING it. Was sure I was gonna be a 1-20, so made sure I was backed up (redundantly even!). Thus, of course, my internal sd was just fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] FRIEDjellyWALNUT:
So, I've been running Onyx R4.2 with ULF perfectly since it came out, but then all of a sudden, everything stopped working today.

Launcherpro kept crashing, so I figured I would restart my phone to fix that. When I restarted, it kept looping the Matrix boot animation (it would vibrant once, then a few seconds later, it would vibrate three times in rapid succession, then the Matrix animation would start again). I let that go for about an hour or so, and when I saw that it definitely was not booting, I decided it was time to ODIN back to stock. Luckily, I could still get into recovery because my phone is not hardware-locked, so I disabled the lagfix I was using (No RFS Overkill JFS) and all of the random tweaks.

I followed the instructions to ODIN back to JFD down to the letter, but then I got the E: can't mount error. I then followed the tutorial to fix that error to the letter, and now I have a completely broken Vibrant. After ODIN finished repartitioning my phone to fix to E: can't mount error, ODIN tried to reboot my phone, but my phone just turned off.

I can't find any way to turn it back on. I've tried every button combination possible, I've tried taking out the battery, SIM card and MicroSD card. The phone doesn't responds to neither my wall charger or my computer through the USB cable.

Is there anything I can do? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I just got my Vibrant because my Nexus One was stolen (:(), so I really don't want to lose this phone too.

Thank you to Team Whiskey so much for all of your hard work.
[Vibrant Android Development] sl0play:
With your phone off. Hold down both volume buttons and plug in USB cable. You should go directly into download mode.

Battery

Ive been reading the post about battery and one guy said over night standby was a 20%-30% loss. Can any one confirm this or is the standby on this rom not as bad as this guy says? Currently I am on Fusion 1.2 with JACs kernel, and my stand by from 10:00pm-10am is a 3% drain. I want to go to a 2.2. rom but not if it means my battery life is that much worse.
[Vibrant Android Development] vtxGump:
Tmonty, I have this rom on my vibrant and my wife's. I get about 10% drain overnight, but my wife gets only about 3-4% drain. I run a couple Exchange accounts from my phone but my wife only hits Gmail. I'm sure that's a big part of the difference.

We are both running with the stock kernel and no lagfix.
[Vibrant Android Development] tmonty11:
Thank you vtxGump! I appreciate the feedback. One more question, are you using any task killers? I normally have that free one with auto kill at 30 min, i also froze any drm things in titanium. I guess I was just curious if you had anything else on your phone that helps with battery. Thanks so much with the help, I appreciate it so much
[Vibrant Android Development] Munk0:
Hi tmonty.

I have been using Onyx 4.2 with the overkill lagfix since it came out on 11/18. (I was one of the unlucky SD card wiped folks). I absolutely love the performance as this is the first time that my SGS has kept running without a hitch. It seemed like all of the other ROMs that I tried would work great for about two days and then start to really bog down and lag worse than the stock ROM. The drawback for this performance has been that the battery will not last all day FOR ME unless I charge it when I can. I can't comment on how much drain there is overnight because I am usually down to 6 to 25% at the end of the day. I never let it go overnight without charging as I rely on my phone too much.

I can tell you that when I unplug my phone in the morning and pull it out to use it, an hour or couple of hours later, I might have lost about 10%. I do have a gmail account and seven email accounts which update every 30 minutes. I use the built-in task manager to kill applications every once in a while just to make sure that nothing is eating up juice when it doesn't need to. Beyond that there are no instant messenger applications running, weather updates, or anything that utilize bandwidth.

That's my experience so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] tmonty11:
Ok thank you very much. I appreciate all the information you had. It's nice to get some information on battery drain and every thing. Seems I would read and read and find nothing very supporting.
[Vibrant Android Development] mo4me420:
screen capture

Had the exact same thing happen to me today only difference is I done have PVZ installed.
[Vibrant Android Development] vtxGump:
Tmonty, no auto task killers for me. I have they full version of SystemPanel but only do the "kill all" every now and then (not more than once a day).

It might be worth noting that I don't run any Widgets other than Beautiful Widgets for the home screen clock and weather. I think it's set to update the weather on unlock, so that does a data pull. Coincidentally, my wife's phone doesn't have the BW and I just checked. She was at 42% this morning after 24 hours of moderate use. We're away from home and only brought one charger, so my took priority overnight :)

Auto shut down when battery reaches 0%?

Is it possible to disable the auto-shutdown when the battery reaches 0%? I'd like to be able to keep running it past the battery reaching 0%, as in my experience there's often 15-30 minutes of run time even after the battery is supposedly at 0%. Ideally it'd be great if there was a power control panel so I could customize what %s it warns about low battery at, and what actions it takes at what battery %s, like I can for my laptop.

Stock Kernel OCLF?

OCLF searches in this thread have mostly brought up people complaining about soft bricking their phone after using OCLF...

however, i read somewhere that TW has released a version of OCLF compatible with the stock Onyx kernel. anyone know if/where i can find this?
[Vibrant Android Development] M1A1D:
Pretty sure that that is done to prevent you from truly deep cycling the battery, which over time can be detrimental to performance.
[Vibrant Android Development] Big Dog KMc:
Also the battery itself has protection built into itself. I tried using a cell battery for a electronics project and found out that the battery would disconnect well before it reached 2 volts.
[Vibrant Android Development] miikey_:
check out eugene's 3.0v 2.2 kernel (a14 i think). it is supposed to lower minimum battery voltage before the phone auto shuts down.
[Vibrant Android Development] icandy75:
It's in the ~tw~ forums for sgs vibrant public release in the onyx OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] Longsh0t:
I'm experiencing an odd issue with my external MicroSD card. When I connect it to my computer it appears as a CD Drive and I am unable to copy anything to it. I've connected it to different computers with the same result. I've tried disabling lagfixes, wiping the phone as well as reinstalling the rom and it still appears as a CD Drive (internal storage works).

If I use the MicroSD card via an external adapter it works. It's pretty frustrating and I'm not sure what happened. Any ideas?

-edit-

Found a fix. Sorry for the post.

I have noticed something strange about this ROM. Sometimes when the phone is processing and I hit the back button it takes a screen shot. It did it when I was sending a text and when the media scanner was running. Is this normal? Ive tried to reproduce the action but I can't.

[Vibrant Android Development] paximos:
There is a screen capture apk in the package!!
