Lagfix

So, I ran this for a while last night a like it very much. It was very snappy and worked well IMO. The problem is (and this is not CyanogenMod specific, it goes for all ROMs) that ext4 (r4, voodoo, CyanogenMod implementation) doesn't cut it. Anyone who uses NitroDesk Touchdown will likely agree with me. This application still lags to death and is unusable on RFS or ext4. The only time I have seen Nitrodesk run well is when using the ext2 bind mounts. Anyway, I wanted to throw this out in hopes that someone working on CyanogenMod will pickup the ext2 torch and carry it forward.

Thanks and awesome work to all!! Without you I would be a very, very disgruntled Vibrant owner.

Okay so I'm having weird issue...when I try to reboot into recovery the recently downloaded files are not showing up i.e. New kernel not being found anywhere and external sd being "unmountable". I'm already on cm6.1, I installed rom manager and have tried flashing as "vibrant" and i9000 with no luck in the actual recovery module. Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks a ton!
[Vibrant Android Development] kevinngu:
considering the stock i9000 has a FFC, does it have problems with banding like it does when we ported the app from the epic?
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Thank you SOOOO much Eugene for all your helo and hard work.
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Keep running into an issue with #13 I think it me specific though.

Not sure why but ill continue to poke around some more
[Vibrant Android Development] vortec87:
are you running the latest nightly? cause it wont install on that for me either but works fine on Beta3
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Nope, I got it thought somehow. Reseated the sdcard and it popped up and was able to flash.

:D
[Vibrant Android Development] defconoi:
everything works great accept camera & gps and wifi calling crashes after install. Any way we can fix the force closing with the wifi calling apk? I seen a fix for the nexusone only in the nexus one section

[Vibrant Android Development] jphilpot:
Gps?

Is anyone else have issues with GPS? mines not even detected. I tried the froyo modem but still doesn't even recognize it. Says initializing gps only
[Vibrant Android Development] indarios:
Thanks for this release. I'm having problems with my GPS not working. Also in normal voice calls I can't get audio (voices) to output with either a headset or with bluetooth.

sudden slowdowns

Has anyone experienced sudden slowdowns on the phone with Eugene's kernel? After about an hour with setcpu at 1000 mhz max and 400 mhz min, the phone will slow to a crawl to where opening the app drawer takes about 10 seconds. Any advice?
[Vibrant Android Development] jroid:
idk if anyone has mentioned this (don't feel like reading hundreds of posts to find out) but the built in mobileAP works on this build works :D I'm writing this post tethered to my vibrant right now in fact. I noticed in the OP it said it works with wifi tether app but I'm not using it.
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Sweet ill take a gander and update the OP. Thanks for the heads up!
[Vibrant Android Development] jroid:
No problem :D I should also add for good measure that i'm running eugene's latest kernel with this. Haven't tested with the initial kernel.tar

Cannot connect to TMobile

Hey guys, is anyone with TMobile experiencing problems connecting to the network after installing this ROM and eugene's latest kernel? I used to get full signal and 3G data 100% of the time at home and now most of the time I cannot make a phone call because it does not have signal.

I flashed the ROM 2 times and same for the kernel. I've rebooted several times and checked the network settings. When I scan for networks, only AT&T comes up.

I tried JK6 and JL1 too.

UPDATE: I flashed JL1 again and suddenly everything is perfect! I don't know why that didn't work the first time. Anyway, I see the speed increase in data and it's still good after a reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] jroid:
You mean the Jl1 modem? I do notice the spotty data with this rom.. have to reboot constantly to refresh it. I'm gonna flash JK6 modem since I had the best reception and data speeds with it
[Vibrant Android Development] miguelmondo:
Yeah, the JL1 modem has been excellent for me and I'm loving it with this ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] bobbbb:
Does anyone know when we can expect an update for this from CM? Also, I loved this ROM, however, kernel panics and being unable to transfer apps from TB for some reason has kept me away but I can't wait for Stable!~!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] diazf09:
Copy ur tb folder to ur external sd. And it should read it after a reboot or let it sit in for a while.. worked for me
[Vibrant Android Development] Siks:
Or just edit the TB backup folder location in TB settings. I just changed it from "TitaniumBackup" to "../emmc/TitaniumBackup" and it worked fine.

[Vibrant Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
Has anyone tried the new kernel posted in the OP yet? I'll come back to CM6 if the kernel panics/wake problems are gone. Is the GPS fixed too?
[Vibrant Android Development] miguelmondo:
I'm using Eugene's kernel and it's excellent. I have not experienced any problems other than what has already been posted in known issues so far and it has been 3 days since I flashed. GPS still is not working.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
And battery life?
[Vibrant Android Development] miguelmondo:
Not as good as the previous ROM I was using (AOSPish by Anderdroid). I think I get around 12+ hours on moderate use, but I have not had a chance to properly wipe battery stats and all that.

I really was skeptical about flashing this at first because of the GPS and since it's not complete. I had problems with syncing my calendar on AOSPish and I flashed a kernel which bricked my phone. I figured I would give CM6.1 a shot since I had to start over anyway. Now I understand what all the hype about CM is - I'm not switching to any other ROMs anymore. IMO this is the best available with all due respect to all developers that have contributed in this forum.
[Vibrant Android Development] Stevethegreat:
I assume that the rom has the same issues as the GT-I9000's roms do when flashed to Vibrant/Captivate as far as key-mapping goes (absent home button, reversed volume buttons, etc). Any idea when this (if ever) can be solved?

Or would that would require a native CM mod for the Vibrant?
[Vibrant Android Development] bobbbb:
Flash eugene's kernel and this should be fixed, it's fixed for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Stevethegreat:
Indeed, great mod. Now all it remains is to get a proper GPS. The release seems pretty stable already.
[Vibrant Android Development] nobugs:
So when will this be official for CM? I'm a little confused why eugene isnt developing CM and has this in the CM forum....
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Might help to read the thread... They are working on it.

AND

Eugene has been working on the Kernel. If you woulda read the OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] magic4lyfe:
the superuser app says that that there is a new version of the "su binary" available....it tired to automatically install it but it "failed"

then it says "a zip file (su-2.3.1-bin-signed.zip)has been placed on your sdcard, please reboot into recoverymode and flash to update your su binary."

i did those steps and it says "bad data" when i try to flash it

and when i go to rom manager it says that my phone isnt rooted

help?

edit: also noticed that i have no bars showing up, even though i have service (mms,sms,phone working), not a major issue but just annoying

is there a fix for that?
[Vibrant Android Development] magic4lyfe:
repost...please delete
[Vibrant Android Development] stabadus:
I just wanted to make sure I was going about this correctly.. I had tried it last night but it didn't go as planned.

Are these the steps for getting CM 6.1 Beta 3 on the phone?

1. Restore to stock JFD using Odin (place corresponding PIT and PDA files in their respective slots)

2. Root and install CWM

3. Flash JK6 (version 2) modem using CWM

4. Flash initial Kernel using Odin (place Kernel in PDA slot with no PIT file)

5. Flash CM 6.1 Beta 3 ROM using CWM

6. Flash OC/UV Kernel using CWM
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
If you follow the steps/link in the OP you will have a Vibrant on CM6.
[Vibrant Android Development] stabadus:
I tried following it but was confused by step 3 - "Make sure you're actually on JPM Firmware or newer. If not, flash and boot into it. We need this Modem Firmware!"

Would JK6 be considered newer than JPM?
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
yes

JK2 and up work fine
[Vibrant Android Development] stabadus:
Anyone know how long it takes to go through step 8 - "Flash initial kernel "CM-GalaxyS-Kernel-initial.tar" as PDA via odin (no pit, no repartition)"?

It's been stuck on "zImage" for at least a good 5 minutes..

Edit: Tried the above step over 3 times using two different versions of Odin.. still no luck. One of them just fails instantly, the other just hangs on "<ID:0/005> zImage"... any advice?
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
you could've flashed eugene's CM6_13 kernel from CWM.

;)
[Vibrant Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
Can someone list what's still "broken" so far? Especially after eugene's latest kernel posted in the OP.

Is GPS working? Is the camera still black & white? Does video recording work?
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
1. No

2. only the preview is B/W, the actual picture is in color.

3. no
[Vibrant Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
Thanks. I knew about these problems since the beginning of this thread. Just wanted to ask since some progress has been made (like eugene's newer kernel no longer crashes during sleep, and beta 3 was released.)
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
well eugene's kernel and the original don't crash for me.

I use the latest nightly

:D
[Vibrant Android Development] stabadus:
You gotta be kidding me! Let me get this straight.. I can flash CM6_13 kernel on stock JK6 2.2 froyo??

Could I also flash it on stock JFD? It's a pain having to restore to stock via Odin then root then download rom manager then reinstall CWM.. is there a simpler solution (without using ADB)?

Edit: Ok so I flashed CM6_13 kernel, then the CM6.1 rom.. now it's stuck on the cyanogenmod logo (it keeps popping up) and doesn't go past it.. so many obstacles =/

Edit2: PHEW, all I had to do was go back and data wipe > reflashed CM6.1 and now everything seems to be working fine!! w000000000t. Scrizz, you sir, are a godsend.

QUESTION: is Eugene Kernel 13 CWM (OC/UV tweaked) the same as Beta 3?

Also, how would I go about getting the stock Samsung apps like camera, calendar, separate galleries for pics/vids? I'm not really digging this whole N1/CM feel. If somebody could point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Saiboogu:
I had the same issue. Re-running One Click Root fixed it for me.

Pretty sure that's what did it, at least -- I also tried manually installing the SuperUser APK (doubt that did anything) and also flashing an unroot.zip I found in the SuperUser APK thread. Probably just rooting again will do it though
[Vibrant Android Development] devoinregress:
for those of us going by the exact directions in OP is this normal? Should I be worried if it hangs on "zImage" for 15+ min?
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Could be an COM issue with odin. If it were me id try to power down, and give it all another go.. But idk what that'll do.. Thats just me tho.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
the point of CM is to get rid of all the proprietary stuff.

If you want TWiz, you have to flash a samsung Build.

;)

:D
[Vibrant Android Development] stabadus:
I personally hate Odin; it's given me so much trouble in the last two days that it's just been a headache. CWM seems to get the job done.

I basically followed all the directions in the OP but instead of flashing the initial kernel via Odin, I flashed the OC/UV kernel via CWM. Everything should go smoothly; just make sure you data wipe before booting up CM (I made the mistake of not doing that and it hung on the boot logo).

I also read that we were to remove any lag fixes prior to this installation. Now, I'm not sure if this will cause any problems long term; but I had the voodoo 5 fix along with the OCLF on a stock 2.2 froyo before flashing the OCed kernel and then CM. I didn't remove any of those.. just flashed everything on top of each other lol.. no problems yet. Is this a critical step to avoid instability in the future or did I just get lucky?

Isn't there a way to push the apks using root explorer? I read somewhere that it was successfully done on CM. All I want really is the Samsung calendar, clock, and the video player.

Also, my video recorder keeps FCing.. is this a known issue or could it have been a result of me randomly flashing everything on top of one another?
[Vibrant Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
I understand and completely agree that a very small part of Samsung's special clusterfuck called TouchWiz is actually good/useful. But everything else, and I mean everything else, is complete **** and is crippling our experience with our powerful handsets.

The number one priority in XDA and friends should be getting a completely pure AOSP no-****ing-Sammy-bull**** build running on our phones perfectly without anything broken.

What we have here... CyanogenMod for the GT-I9000... is almost perfect. What we need is the camera preview fixed and video recording working completely, and also GPS. When that's done, then everybody should kick Samsung's ****ty software out of their $500 handhelds and enjoy the full capability of the great hardware that's been forgotten by it's creator.
[Vibrant Android Development] Matarick:
I am having a bah Humbug moment right now, the only thing is not working is the GPS. Over all it is a great firmware though. I am shocked that there is no GPS since I used Eugene's other kernel back in the day.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
The kernel really doesn't have much to do with the GPS working or not.

[Vibrant Android Development] kolyan:
So how come NS already has fully working CM7 already and Vibrant has this CM6 without BT and GPS?
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
could it be because the NS has kernel and system source, while the vibrant is waiting for 2.2 kernel source?

Could it also be that the NS doesn't have all the hacks to work around android system limitations like the SGS series does? (like externel and internel sdcard)

Bluetooth now works...

In the nightly Bluetooth is fixed (I used it to try Wiimote Controller). I think this ROM is dead. Look here:

* CyanogenMod Forum

* > Samsung Galaxy S

* > Samsung Galaxy S Experimental Mod

*> [GT-I9000] CM6.1: Holy crap, it's full of BUGS! Version: BETA3 (Post #65)

(I cannot post links!)

By the way, the second post of the same thread contains the nightly (remember to flash "Eugene Kernel 13 CWM" afterwards from the op of this thread). It would be nice if someone could repackage this with the build.props edited for the Vibrant. It would be appreciated!
[Vibrant Android Development] wildklymr:
Odin to eugenes froyo that doesnt brick. Click repartition first. Then odin to jfd with repartition unchecked. Then whatever rom you want.

Does sdcard mounting work in this build on the Vibrant?
[Vibrant Android Development] jumaaneface:
Flashing the stock vibrant froyo kernel causes it not to boot because /system is on ext4....does anybody read anymore??

And @scrizz the sd cards are mounted correctly I think. For the gt% 9000 at least.
