[Vibrant Android Development] SamsungVibrant:
Been running the deodexed version since it became available. This is fantastic. No problems what so ever. However, I still prefer the JK6 modem, had the best

3G signal. However, this realease of JL4 is fine, feels totaly stock, totally official for what its worth. I like it. As far as I'm concerned, official 2.2 is here for the Vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
I have to say i have yet to lose my signal ob jl4. Love the modem.
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
I know this is stupid to ask but after I uninstall all of the OCLF stuff should I wipe data with clockworkmod? (already backed up my ROM).
[Vibrant Android Development] qroche85:
I'll flash JL1 modem on top of this. 3G is not as consistent as JL1. GPS locks as fast as JL1 though.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
Just started getting fcs with tap to zoom in browser. Wont stop. No matter how many resets i do?
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
Very slick! I've still gotta test the GPS. Hopefully that's all good. If someone can get the stock i9000 native tethering to work then perfection!! (or will the one for 2.1 work? Anyone test yet?)

Edit: I'm an idiot. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Rockridge:
I saw some one posted similar question in here, but no one replyed yet, so i want to ask you great guys to get answer.

Im suing Nero_v1 right now, but i really want to use JL4 because it is STOCK, however, can i just flash rom top of Nero_v1 by using CWM????

one one more question, i know im a noob, but can anyone please explain me what's the difference between odexed and de-odexed version???
[Vibrant Android Development] phattchumpy:
That's what I did and it's running great. I wiped cache dalvik cache and did a factory reset from recovery just after flashing for good measure. Do it!

If you google the difference between odexed and de-odexed you'll find a pretty complete explanation of de-odexing's purpose.
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
Try rebooting the phone, then opening titanium. If that doesn't work, try reflashing the rom.

If you're flashing this rom, it'll wipe data. It's a full wipe rom (doesn't touch sdcard though)

try a reflash?

Yes, you can flash over nero, it's a full wipe rom. (doesn't touch sdcard though)

Also, deodexed means that the .apk's have been deodexed (so instead of xxxx.apk and xxxx.odex, there's only xxxx.apk). Not sure how to really explain it, but deodexed allows you to make system .apk modifications, decompile, edit, and recompile without have to re-odex the file as well. Also, a deodexed rom makes it 10x easier to flash some of the theme mods people make (like lockscreen choices, or that gingerbreak mod for JK6 (not saying that works with this rom though, just an example).
[Vibrant Android Development] Rockridge:
Thanks for sharing me with your experience!!!! Thanks!

Did u just install this rom using CWM without do any processes before installing this rom like when you do it at first from the stock eclair?

Thanks again.
[Vibrant Android Development] cire253:
My issue was that I could not sent mms picture messages, sms worked fine. After using for a while other apps would open when I poised messaging or dialer... N e ideas
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
not sure why other apps are opening. But as for the server response. it seems to be pretty common with all the leaked 2.2 roms. that and blurry mms messages. i don't have a fix for server response issues, other than using the AOSP mm.apk floating around xda.

There are 2 versions floating around. One that supports puzzle notifications, and one that doesn't.
[Vibrant Android Development] phattchumpy:
Not sure exactly what you mean but I did it through clockwork recovery. The only extra steps I took was to wipe cache and data after I flashed. Hope that helps.
[Vibrant Android Development] cire253:
I would be on the xda app, and i'd close out of it then click on the messaging app and xda opened up it was wierd.

so the only "fix" to sending picture messages would be to find the aosp mms apk? could I pull the mms apk from another rom like nero or something? just curious. Im using nero now but dont like the app drawer at all. want to come back to this.
[Vibrant Android Development] Big Dog KMc:
This post explains a fix for the mms problems
[Vibrant Android Development] cire253:
so I just flashed that fix, BUT still am not able to send picture messages, I get a error in server response.
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi

Did you folllow these instructions?

Delete the mms.apk and reboot.

Did you use su file manager?

Don't flash the mms.apk but extract and copy and paste it in /system/app

That's what worked for me.

See if that fixes it.

:)

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

Just tested this and it works and no more blurry image.

Thank the developer in the post.

He always does great work.

[Vibrant Android Development] cire253:
i use root explorer.

1. deleated the mms.apk from the system/app folder

2. placed the mms.apk that I was supposed to in the system/app folder using root explorer.

3. rebooted my phone.

4. tried sending a picture message to my wife.

5. got the error message.

now im back to nero v1, flashed over the tw launcher but now i've got all kinds of problems, I wish I could get the mms apk on THIS rom to work and send picture messages thats all I want argh!
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

The only problem is that root explorer did not work on this rom for me to delete the mms.apk from the system/app folder.

So the original mms.apk probably did not get deleted on your phone.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] cire253:
so I have to use the su file manager.

Where is the Super User File Manager? Just go into super user and its there? or do I need a specific super user file manager app (sorry for the noob question)
[Vibrant Android Development] Pacothebandit:
So correct me if I'm wrong, but I will need to root my vibrant before doing this right? I know I know, its stock, but I also know to use CWM I need to be rooted and flash his recovery. So its been a while since I joined the rooting party and the last time I rooted my vibrant, I bricked it and I'm a little gunshy

[Vibrant Android Development] jamesd86:
Use One Click Root in the apps section

install Rom Manager

install ClockworkMod Recovery

backup your current setup in rom manager( i recommend going into setting and choosing to make the back up faster by turning off status thingy)

flash either the odex or de-odexed version from here.

it is rather straight forward, important part bolded.

edit: i also recommend having a way to use ADB and knowing how to use it...also, learn ODIN for this phone(i'm still working on this myself). Being able to adb reboot recovery or reboot download is always easier than messing with hardware buttons and capacitive ones at that.
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi

su file manager is in the market.
[Vibrant Android Development] Bato Vukovic:
I had no problem with the mms in this original build.

cheers.
[Vibrant Android Development] darcjrt:
I keep getting file system is read only with root explorer when I try to copy files to system/app why?
[Vibrant Android Development] Pacothebandit:
Awesome! So just a heads up, I did a nandroid on my first Vibrant and when I tried to restore that is when I viloently bricked it! What say u??
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Use su file manager instead.

Never use nandroid especially if changing systems.

I use titanium to restore my apps.

It's much safer

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
You have to mount system as rw before editing. In root explorer, there is a grey box in the upper right corner. It'll say either r/o or r/w. Press it until it reads r/o (this will make system rw).

Also, when you're replacing the aosp mms.apk, make sire after you're down than you clear dalvik-cache.

Hi

Can you make a separate flashable of the kernel only?

Thank you
[Vibrant Android Development] sonnyk88:
Flashed from Stock-JK6. Now some of the apps I installed to JK6 from Market are not found in Stock JL6. Anyone know why ?
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
like you can't find them in the market? if that's the case, i'm not sure why.

But if you mean you can't find them on your phone, that's because this is a full wipe rom. and you'll have to reinstall apps again.
[Vibrant Android Development] dizzy21:
Awesome Rom.. Finally!!!!

So i came from Axura 2.2 to this awesome rom and had to do a few tweeks, but am very happy with the outcome.

Vibrant + Stock JL4 Stock Deodexed + OCLF = and achieved 1665 on Quadrant!! Fastest for me so far from all the custom roms on XDA... Very happy i also fixed the blurry mms issue as well.

A++++++++++++++

Finally found my daily driver....

**Edit**

To fix blurry MMS issue - I used SUFBS to delete the MMP.APK from /system/app and then flashed the mms.apk using Clockwork mod and Woo Hooo Blurry issues are gone. I flashed the fix from here: also attached to this post.

Hi,

I used the droid eris fix app to bring back my missing installed apps from the download area in the market.

I also had to clear market data and reboot phone.

[Vibrant Android Development] darcjrt:
I can mount root as rw but system is always ro and hitting the button does not changes the mount mode. It is always as ro and it wont let me copy anything. What can it be?
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

I used su file manager.

I could not get root exploer to work on the rom.

It appears to work but doesn't.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
Ok, got MMS up and running. Somehow I axed my "Messages" icon from the main Touchwiz Panel, but that's no big deal (I run the 2.3 Launcher anyway). Everything has been great! A few bugs/changes from 2.1 just for comparison:

1) Sometimes when I back out of certain programs the top half of my wallpaper gets cut off and replaced with a black background temporarily.

2) When you open the camera, the media player stops playing (which is probably an intentional feature). When you close the camera out, sometimes the media player gets closed as well (possibly a bug that T-Mo is working out?)

3) When in silent mode, you'll still get the T-Mobile bootup/shutdown sounds.

Random Questions:

1) I can't get Clockwork Mod to backup the Rom. It will boot into recovery, load some files, then give me the options to reboot, clear cache, etc

2) I can't seem to run any update.zip's from ClockWork Mod either. The same thing as above happens.

I'm sure I'm just a freaking idiot and I'm showing it. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

That is 3e recovery. Click reinstall packages and you should go into clockwork.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
I get an error about not being able to open /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip

I yanked the original JL4 which I had renamed to update.zip (obviously). I assume I need to put that back?

Sorry for being such a damn noob. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

Hopefully you have a rooted phone and clockwork is installed through rom manager.

You leave the update.zip that clockwork installs on your internal sd card.

Don't ever remove this.

Copy the jl4 rom to your internal sd card.

When in clockwork you will see green text.

Use install zip from sdcard and find the jl4 rom and install it.

It sounds complicated but isn't.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] qroche85:
Copy the attached update.zip into your internal sd and choose reinstall package in recovery to get into CWM.
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
Thanks for the patience guys! I apologize for cluttering the thread. In case you can't tell it's the first ROM I've flashed. ;) She's backing up right now!
[Vibrant Android Development] phyzy:
Here;s my issue. I used ODIN to install a Rom named SGH-T959_JL4_JL4_JL4_JL4_UV_TMB I found. It works fine as far as I can tell from the last 2 hours of usage. I finally went to go Root it, but there is no option to aaply from sd card. After some searching I came across this ROM which already comes rooted, so I've been trying to get this ROM on my phone with no avail.

I can't use ROM Manager because my phone is not rooted. I tried putting the 2 UPDATE.ZIP files from this thread on there and selecting "Reinstall Packages", it gets to about 25% done, and then says can't verify the whole-signature and aborts. Please tell me what I can do either root the ROM I have on there or get this rooted ROM on there.

Thanks in advance
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
SuperOneClick for root.

Then follow this to get the modded recovery to your phone. you can then flash CWM's update.zip to install roms and stuff.

OR

ODIN to JFD.

Then, reboot phone into recovery, and select reinstall packages (assuming you have the CWM update.zip file, which if you haven't formatted your sdcard and have previously run RomManager and flashed CWM recovery, it'll be on your sdcard)

Then, flash this or any of the other roms out there. You don't need root to flash CWM files, but you do need a recovery that can handle CWM (i.e. not the stock 2.2 ODIN roms)
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
Yeah I made that mistake once. Took a Half hr to Odin back to jfd and download the deoxed version and get everything. Back up and running. Btw love jl4
[Vibrant Android Development] Pacothebandit:
Awesome! I had to use CWM to boot into recovery manually then select the file manually. But after that I am up and running. Everything works beautifully. Now, can I flash other roms over this? Maybe CM6.1 or another since I am rooted. Just wanna know my options.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesd86:
CM is not recommended for our phone...it's still in beta.

This 2.2 rom is pretty good by itself, untill CM comes out of beta and is released working...I'm sticking with this.
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
Yeah, it sounds to me like he renamed the JL4 flashable to "update.zip," which of course would prevent him from booting into CWM recovery. :eek:
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
The system folders are read only by default. In Root Explorer, there is a button directly above the list of folders that says "Mount R/W." Press that button if you need to delete anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
I certainly hope that you have a good lawyer. :eek:
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
Are you sure? It is received pictures that are blurry. To test, someone must send you a picture.
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
Also, if your "Messaging" icon disappears from the dock after following these directions, search for "dock" at this URL and follow directions to get it back:

[Vibrant Android Development] Pacothebandit:
Right I know this. But in theory it would work right? Just to flash a properly working mod is the same as it would be. Providing its stable(ish)
[Vibrant Android Development] skyteam86:
Thank you for this rom, i was in 2.1 ji6 stock, now i got this in with z4mod lagfix it is somuch faster, although i don't see whole lot of change in battery life, still works for me, i haven't been able to test blurry mms picture issue, just becasue i didn't have any pictures sent by someone else, although i had some pictures that i sent it seemed fine though, don't know if that makes a difference. and ididn't have to factory reset after the rom flash, the touchwiz launcher seemed to work fine for me, i just put launcher pro so no difference anyways.
[Vibrant Android Development] LSIchip:
Does anyone have problem with battery life? Everything works great, but this.... About 3% for 2h... :( with jk6 it was about 3% for 8h
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
It will vary with usage and different conditions. Let the battery drain fully (for a recondition) before you start to be be concerned with battery usage.

i forgot to add, but i did notice the haptic feed back doesn't stay on maximum level even if i change it to maximum the feedack vibration is very weak. any ideas anyone?
[Vibrant Android Development] lallolu:
can you please remove the tmobile boot animations too?
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
I have a zip you can flash with Clockwork Mod that will replace the T-mobile splash screen with the stock i9000 image. I'll post it when i get home. Worked great for me.

Edit: Try this

[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
i have a slow upload speed, i'm not going to upload another set of files that take ~1.5 hours to upload a piece. If you want to remove them yourself, i'll tell you how to:

WinRAR or 7-zip is what i use (neve tested with windows built in zip system)

open the zip file (don't extract/unzip).

Navigate to system/media/video/

There will be a folder labeled "shutdown". You can either delete this file, or you can delete the contents of it. it's up to you.

Now, navigate to system/media

There will be two files you need to look for.

bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg delete these files. They are the bootup screen animations.

(i use winrar personally, and find it realy easy to modify roms by adding a subtracting stuff) You can add the modded samsung mms.apk using this, or you can replace the stock blurry mms.apk with one of the AOSP mms file floating around. Just drag and drop in to system/app.

If that's the one i'm thinking it is, it's not updated to reflect the change in the shutdown audio file. (2.1 = Shutdown_128.ogg 2.2 = shutdown.ogg)
[Vibrant Android Development] TheMightiest1981:
I'm have to give props to the op for this one, this is my first time flashing a rom and I was getting very impatient waiting for Tmobile and Samsung to push Froyo. I'm not *****ing about it though, I just wanted to rate it's performance against stock JI6 which was an official release. I'm starting to wonder though, is the touchwiz UI overlay every going to allow a proper transition to froyo.

That being said, this thing doesn't perform very well at all. The battery life is horrendous, I lost 20% battery life in one hour and my screen was off almost the entire time. The phone is more laggy now than before I flashed, showing responsiveness at infrequent times.

If you look at quadrant advanced it shows that while CPU speed has increased, the I/O score actually decreased. Web browsing is a nightmare, scrolling is very unresponsive and laggy, and overall just isn't smooth. None of my facebook contact would link to my phone contacts and I'm having trouble with wifi and bluetooth connectivity.
[Vibrant Android Development] BruceElliott:
I have none of the issues that you mentioned. FYI, I flashed this sequence:

JFD(stock)--->JI6(stock)--->JL4(stock); cleared cache & Dalvik cache.
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
I don't either. I don't even pay attention to battery life with any android devices anymore. They all suck :p. I carry around three batteries and pretty much keep it plugged in when it's convenient. I think touchwiz is just gonna be slow. I'm using the Modaco Gingerbread Launcher and it's fine...actually much more responsive. Wifi has been fine. No clue on BT. The thing to remember is that this isn't the official ROM. If it was perfect, T-Mo would have already released it. There are some strange issues, but if you're having big time problems I suggest reflashing. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
It's the one your thinking of. It does eliminate the T-Mobile boot up and shut down Splash Screens and changes the boot up tone. The Shut Down tone is still the T-Mobile jingle. Better than nothing though! ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] phyzy:
Firstly thanks so much to the OP and everyone that helped a N00B get this on the phone, finally running this ROM, had to downgrade back to JD and then apply the ROM.

Not sure if this is a problem with the site itself or this build, whenever I go to ebay.com from the phone, it tries to convert to the mobile version and just closes. It doesn't Force Close, just closes the browser. It used to work when I was on JD.

Also noticed double tap on the browser used to arrange the text to "word wrap" to the window size, no longer does that, just zooms in so the user has to scroll right and left.
[Vibrant Android Development] PTong88:
problem with camera's zoom anyone??

I'm not able to zoom with my camera. The dial moves right and left indicating the increase in digital zoom but the image is not responding at all.
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
i'd reflash, i did the deodex one and my camera zooms correctly. the whole rom actually works well, i did the mms fix and the blur is gone. only thing is i seem to be killing the battery pretty fast, but i'm going to give it more time.

Anyone delete all the bloat from this one yet? I want to delete as much as possible and add the ADW launcher and I think I'll be good to go.

I saw the flashable theme for this that looked ok, but does it lose the swype keyboard?
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
I've got the same set up essentially with a few different launchers. It definitely eats battery but it is an unofficial ROM after all. I did some scheduler tweak with OCLF so we'll see if that helps. Is definitely a RAM hog!

Time for a third spare battery! ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
I deleted a bunch of stuff last night, DM service or something and a couple others that i read on other posts was running for nothing. I left it unplugged on wifi with wifi calling loaded at 11pm at 16% battery, up this morning at 6 still had 16% battery. Seems to be better with some stuff removed, will have to test it out all day now. Anyone know what google messaging is thats always running? I deleted the google voice so shouldn't have any messaging running. Also, I can't get my voicemail indicator to work, I'm stuck using tmobile visual, but really don't want to
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
Isn't DMservice needed to mount your sd card and to mount to your PC?
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
Can't be because I mounted it this morning to copy the jl4 unlock screen from my laptop to my phone and dragged a copy to my external sd card, worked fine and flashed it after. Also im at 94% and 4.107 volts at 1130 am which is best I've done on battery yet
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
The files you are thinking of are the vold.conf and vold.fstab in /system/etc

Anyone flash the jl5 voodoo kernel over this or if there's a jl4 one? Was going to switch to the nero 3 but this is working well I'm not sure I want to switch the whole rom
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
Also I can't get voicemail to work still only visual will work for notifications, if I take my sim out and out it in my old iphone it blinks the indicator up right away do I know it's not a sim or tmobile problem
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
Update, I deleted the visual voicemail app and tried and nothing. Loaded the visual voicemail app back from the market and that doesn't work force closes, but then I got the regular voicemail indicator. So I can't get rid of it but it doesn't make sense. Visual is always running in the background and doesn't work but I have to have it for my normal voicemail indicator to work? Thee must be a fix for this so I can get rid of visual for good
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
I'm sorry I can't help you with visual voicemail as I use Google voice and I don't have a data plan.
