actually i think WHY this one is so slow, is because

it renders the fotos in hi res, verses or stock one.

a trade off
[Epic 4G Themes] alfiej:
Darn, I wanted this. Flashed it. Icon changed but I get FC loop.. :/
[Epic 4G Themes] asd1301:
errr it's too SLOW showing pictures in HIGH res ....

how do i go back to the original since i deleted the old 1 now ....?

:(

or is it a better version for i9000 faster one ? it's taking 2 sec to load the pic in high res (first load is in low res than changes ...)
[Epic 4G Themes] alfiej:
You were supposed to back the old one up first. You might be able to pull the old one out of a rom or something. At least you got it to work it FC looped on me.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanzer:
The fix below has been merged into the nightlies!! expect to see it on the 23rd.

If you're impatient, you can install a compiled version of the apk from recovery...

---------------

The camera issue is for ALL of cyanogenmod, not just us dinc users.

I've grabbed some of the patches that are being worked on and put some of my own work into it.

Please let me know what you find.

For me, it crashes almost every single time if I use continuous focus, but it's fine with infinity.

Screen off and on works without FC, but the camera is hard coded to not allow recording with screen off.

1. Backup

2. Flash aosp-camera-fix-v1.0.zip

3. reboot..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] brownel02:
flashed

Just flashed, off to a meeting but will report back shortly. I would love to be able to shoot video in 720.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] egobuster1:
in to see the responses
[Droid Incredible Android Development] brownel02:
no issues

No FC in continuous or infinity mode. Shot about 10 minutes of video in both. Screen off then on kills recording. Still no 720p recording mode though (not that this was supposed to fix that, I was just hoping).

Recap: No camera/video FC in either mode (continuous or infinity)

Thanks for this
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanzer:
To get 720 p.. Make sure quality is set to custom and file type is mpeg4, then it should show up in the settings.

rom manager now shows build #157 (11-23) does this include both the cam and led fix?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanzer:
Maybe cam fix, definitely not led fix tho.. hasn't been approved.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
hi seanzer. on cm nightly build #161 - issue: when on videocam, and i turn off the screen (recording or not), when you unlock, the videocam becomes almost half the size of the screen (with the preview screen almost a quarter the size, and is now on the lower left), and it's unresponsive. :confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanzer:
Same thing happened on my friends moto Droid 1.. i think the latest commit to the camera broke it. Try a nightly before the 24th... which only contains my camera fix. I haven't had time to test the latest nightly yet, but I will have to investigate more what happened..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
thanks man. i just installed build #159 and cam is back to normal again. :)

on a different note: how come the vanilla cam doesn't support 8mp wide like the htc sense cam?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
anyone know? is this the same with all aosp roms?.. the camera just isn't as good as the htc cam.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Goglu666:
Fixed my Nexus One

Installed on CM 6.1 on a Nexus One, fixed the camera for photos, haven't tested the videos.

Symptoms: Camera keeps crashing after a few shots. Force Close the application and if I tried to run it I only got a blackscreen until the Force Close window appeared.

It also rebooted my phone one 2 occasions.

Installed using Rom Manager:

Install from SD

Selected .zip

Backup Rom (Yes)

Wipe (NO!!!)

Everything went smooth.

Now I'm taking pictures, modifying settings, Touch Focus, everything seems to work.

Took 20 pictures in a row and fast.

Thanks for the fix
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheJeeks:
I had high expectations on this one, I tried it but I still get FC on the camera.

I have a Magic and I am running the CM 6.1 Rom
[Droid Incredible Android Development] raptir:
If you look at the resolution of the 8mp wide setting on the stock sense camera, it's not actually 8mp. It's really the same as 6mp wide on the CM camera.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch0g0nda:
Hi,

I know this has likely already been covered, but I'm overwhelmed with school and can't sacrifice anymore time to sitting and browsing through old threads right now.

Long story short, I was running CM6.0.1-RC1 (HTC Dream, Rogers, 32b) when my phone's microphone seemed to stop working. I could call people and receive calls but they could never hear me. Google voice search also wouldn't register any sound from the mic.

Fast forward a few hours and instead of just installing CM6.0, which had been running pretty much fine, I'm now on hboot 0.95 and radio 2.22.27.80 in an attempt to flash ezterry's 2.2

I've tried tubaking182's downgrade guide and all I get when I get to the rgb screen is "not allow"

Also, when trying to flash anything via SDK I get "Signature: verify fail" whenever I try to flash anything.

If there are any other details I can provide just say so. I would really appreciate some help as I haven't got a backup phone.

gonna make a video and read tut of it

and some video of it working ofcourse!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] magnums:
ported only basic functions, engineer version posted atm... No final version...
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] magnums:
Direct link to some work and explanation in russian is here: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=200838 But it is stated as version for developers and professionals only, because it is lacks some functions, half working wi-fi, some problems with bluetooth and it's still in test mode. You will need to format your sd card, make your phone able to load in fastboot mode and one package for dual booting from above link.

You will need following apllications:

Dual boot loader from here: http://narod.ru/disk/122844001/ankuch2.2-oss.img.html

Copy of /system folder: http://narod.ru/disk/41926001/ankuch2.2.tar.html

1. Prepare your sd card

type of disk MBR;

part0/primary - fat16 - sdcard - 128MB+. No reason to create more;

part1/primary - ext2 - system - 256MB+, you can put more if you will put some applications in /system/app;

part2/primary - ext2 - data - 256MB+.

I recommend it to partition in 10/10/80.

If you got a big card and use phone to view video, you can make first partition bigger.

2. After SD card prepare, you will need to load and copy content of /system folder from ankuch2.2.rar archive

Making final phase in 2.1:

1. Mount /system in mode r/w (you can mount it, for example, from RootExplorer - select /system and press button mount r/w)

2. adb shell

3. su

4. mkdir /system/s8

5. mount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/s8

6. cd /system/s8

7. busybox tar -x -f /data/ankuch2.2.tar

Loading 2.2:

Enter fastboot mode

We load 2.2 - fastboot boot ankuch2.2.img

No loading animation yet, you will need to wait until will be filled content of /data folder

First load can take a long time, you can control it thru adb shell logcat.

adb, btw, I did in first time and from root it loads.

Sorry for mine english :D Fast translation :D

Problems and some solutions to avoid them:

1. How to put data transfer?

adb shell

stop ril-daemon

start ril-daemon

-- Can be some problems with APN not loading from SIM card, so you will need to put configuration manually.

-- Connection always will be like EDGE, even if really you getting HSDPA

2. How to get rid of lag in transitions?

Try this:

Spare Parts -> Window animations -> Off

Spare Parts -> Transition animations -> Off

Once I got bugged rild, loaded cpu to 100% and almost halted all apps, thats why from link in russian forum you will see some pics of processes.

You can turn it on:

Dev Tools -> Development Settings -> Show running processes

Changed those options too:

Dev Tools -> Development Settings -> Disable compatibility mode (requires to reboot device)

After this author does not get any hangs.

3. How to connect to Wi-Fi

It is required to copy from your 2.1 file wpa_supplicant.conf to /data/misc/wifi (in this file it is saved all your information about connections)

Change permisions from file chmod 777 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf (author did not tested more secure permisions) or reboot device

rest in here -> Settings->Wireless & network->Wi-Fi (turn on Wi-Fi)
[Vibrant General] VibrantUser1:
I understand there's a tips and tricks thread that explains things in more detail but how does somebody go from just getting the phone to installing, or even understanding, things like obsidian, onyx, morphing and learning what the basic functions of such programs are.

The question I currently have is concerning flashing custom roms. In the tips & tricks thread, it talks of froyo builds (ex: bionix & frankin-twiz). What is it exactly? From what I understand, it sounds like a mini os that you install onto your device which helps in applying different functions to it, which makes custom roms possible.

I'm currently trying to get http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845530 to work on my vibrant. Can anybody help a newbie out?
[Vibrant General] firefly6240:
the link you posted is just to a theme.

to get the theme to work you'll need to be running obsidian first.

so lets see, the easiest way to explain the different versions 2.2, 2.1 1.6, 1.5 and so forth is this...

its pretty much like going from windows 95 to 98 to 2000 to xp to vista and so forth.

our vibrants come with android 2.1, 2.2 is the next version of the os to come out (basicaly like moving from vista to windows 7)

the different roms like obsidian and Macnut and such are just names that the developers gave their roms.

what happens is a developer starts out with a version of android (in the case of Macnut and Obsidian this is 2.2)

and then they add their own modified tweaks and such to it.

and so in the end they get Obsidian which is a modified 2.2

or Macnut which is also a modified 2.2

they differ a bit though as Obsidian is based almost totaly on a leaked version of 2.2 for the US vibrant, where Macnut is based alot on the 19000 version of 2.2 for the european phones.

so when choosing a rom just choose the base you want first: 2.1 or 2.2

then look through the tweaks on a few roms and read some of the thread for that rom untill you get a feel for what makes it unique

you can also just experiment by flashing a rom for a day or so and then switching to a new one untill you find one you like.

Morphing is a way to apply a theme to a rom, this does not generaly change functionality at all, it only changes apearance.

alot of themes are either morphs (you install them using metamorph, which is an app from the market)

or they also come in zip format (which are installed by flashing from recovery)

for the theme you posted you will need to flash obsidian, and then flash the zip for the theme afterwards.

have you rooted your device yet?

thats the place to start, if you need help just pm me or repost here and I'll do what I can.

[Vibrant General] henreeg:
Before you even want to start with anything, you have to learn what 'rooting' your phone means.

Without root, you won't be able to do any of the above. You might be able to download the programs necessary, but you won't be able to use them.

For ex. Titanium Backup, ROM Manager, etc.

We use ROM Manager to install different ROMs on our phones.

Much to read, my young grasshopper.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
OP, I made the Tips/Tricks sticky... would you PM be exactly what you think it lacks? I want to make sure it is applicable to everyone... I thought it was straight-forward, perhaps not.
[Vibrant General] VibrantUser1:
my phone is rooted. So how do I go about flashing obsidian?

I thought roms were the same as themes? What's the difference?

And just to clarify I understand the tips and tricks thread is sort of the newbies guide but even then theres a lot of terminology that a new user wouldn't understand. I just wanted some basic information that would allow me to transition into the tips and tricks thread more easily.

I appreciate the responses so far
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Have you download Rom Manager from the Market? If not, do so.

Then follow the instructions (in the sticky) to flash the recovery (it's the top of the list when you open Rom Manager).

Assuming you did that, you can reboot into recovery, make a backup of your system.. something you can always come back to (a timestamp of your system at that moment).

Download the ROM you want, put it on your internal memory (sdcard/....) NOT in a folder.

Go to Clockwork recovery, choose to insall a zip from sd card... select the name of the ROM and then click Yes to install it.

It will run it's course, then you can just reboot when done.

The first bootup will take a long time (10 minutes probably)... let it boot.... leave your phone alone for like 10 or so minutes after bootup (suggested by Team Whiskey, I never really do this).

It's that easy.

Think of a ROM as an OS... the developers take Froyo (2.2) or Eclair (2.1) and make a lot of tweaks, remove things, add things... basically anything to enhance the user experience.

THEMES are something you flash over a custom ROM... it can change the icons, graphics, notification bar, etc... they are cosmetic. You see in my signature I have Axura 2.0.3 (amazing rom and there is a newer version out) and then I have BlackFroyo (which is the theme) on top of the ROM to change the look of things. Axura has a steel looking notification bar, I much prefer black (hence the theme I chose).

The ONE thing that can be confusing... if you make a backup right now (you have stock eclair), if you flash a froyo rom... you would need to flash either the stock eclair kernel (the download link is also in the sticky) to restore your nandoid backup.... OR, you could just flash another ROM that has a kernel (most do) and you would be good to go too.
[Vibrant General] swehes:
And addition to this is to make sure your phone is NOT hardware locked.

To test it:

1) Take out battery from the phone and put it back in again

2) The USB cable plugged into the computer (not in the phone yet)

3) Push and hold down both of the Volume buttons at the same time

4) Plug in USB cable and it should take you into the Download mode.

If it does you are good to go. Just read some about Odin and Stock Android

If it isn't you need to make sure to flash JI6 to your phone (also Stock) onto your phone using Stock Manager. That should fix your hardware locked. Go over the above steps to make sure that is the case.
[Vibrant General] VibrantUser1:
At this point, I have rooted my device and downloaded rom manager.I believe I have backed up everything after following the directions and I do have the blackfroyo.zip on my sd card and for some reason it won't "go" (although I'm sure there's a step I am missing here, something with obsidian) so that wasn't much of a surprise.

Edit: I noticed I tried to use a theme on there and not the obsidian "OS" (idiot) when I tried the backup thing with rom manager. Where can I download the most recent version of obsidian and/or is axura an acceptable alternative?
[Vibrant General] swehes:
Been working on updating the wiki. Please check out http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S_SGH-T959#ROMs for the different ROMs currently available. :)
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
^^ both are solid. I prefer Auxura *no touchwiz*.... download it from the development section. Place in on the internal (sdcard/ ) and flash it, reboot... I would let the phone chill for awhile then reboot again.... THEN if you want, start messing with the theme. You can see from my signature you and I are similar.

to the OP, I started a noob friendly guide in the Q&A section. Please let me know exactly what you want in there.

I have been browsing around and reading on XDA since I got my G1 on release day. I have since upgraded to the MYT3G and now to the Vibrant. I have always used XDA as a source of information for rooting, etc. I don't post very often, but, I would like to throw props out to all the individuals in the thread, this is one of the few threads I have read on XDA that no one got flamed for being a "noob" and asking basic info, the information given was clear, accurate and very helpful. No one pointed to using the search function, everyone just gave good answers. AWESOME

I hope to see more threads like this in the future. Bravo and well done to all.
[Vibrant General] VibrantUser1:
So I tried installing obsidian 5 and this is what happened. I first put the zip file on my sd card, I did all the necessary prerequisites (I think) using rom manager, flash recovery > vibrant yada yada yada and then pressed install rom from sd card and chose the obsidian zip file. Then the phone starts backing itself up and it finally reaches a point where it says (E: Can't open/sdcard/sd/obsidian_v5_beta.zip (no such file or directory) Installation aborted.

I then try to navigate to the file from the menu but whenever I click the sd file, it just exits, I think it says that no zip file is found or something but when I boot it up normally afterwards, the file is still there.

But the file is within the sd file . . . what am I doing wrong? I tried to fix permissions thinking it was that but no luck.
[Vibrant General] bellrb19:
You probably need to move to the rom to the internal sd card. I thought you're able to add it to the external with the recent update but perhaps not
[Vibrant General] VibrantUser1:
the rom IS on the sd card, unless you mean the memory on the actual phone itself
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
ROMs go on the root of the internal memory (no folder)... drop it in sdcard/

Also, this was mentioned in Post 8, and in team whiskeys install guide. Please pay attention to details.
[Vibrant General] VibrantUser1:
oh okay, this whole time I've been thinkin the sd card folder was the root folder. Well I have finally put obsidian with success and now I'm having a difficult time implementing http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845530. I have downloaded the zip file but I don't understand what "flash it through clockwork recovery" means. It kinda sounds like I should use something in rom manager but I'm not sure, I have tried to reboot into recovery through rom manager with no luck.

I've also tried using metamorph but when i choose the blackfroyo.zip file, it says that the file is invalid and that the theme control file could be missing. Am I doing something wrong here as well?

Thanks for all your help so far, I really appreciate you taking time out of your busy life to help an individual with (what may be to you) simple problems
[Vibrant General] badaphooko01:
From where you are now. Make sure the zip file is in the internal sd card, Open rom manager go to install rom from sd card then choose the that file then click ok and CW will do its thing. Also this is only for Obsidian v4.2 and Auxura 2.05. Good luck! Also you should make a nandroid back up first just in case.
