Just being honest and real, just telling him dont hold his breath. As well as I'm not and you shouldnt either. I've never said a bad thing about them, they make my favorite roms... They can take years its on the rom, but when people stay up all night waiting for a release that was said to be there its kinda, well, not fun... Atleast there could have been a "not tonight guys" message..... Meh, no thing, I ain't mad at them, I'm mad at myself for trying to wait and keep checking every half hour all day...

Like I said, I love their work I'm the idiot for being so impatient and believing it was gonna get released when he said... Keep up the good work team whiskey, ill be back when v4 comes...

Sorry if my before posts sound rude but thats not my intention.. I'm thankful for the team..

My fault I stayed up lol amd keep coming amd checking like a crack head..

[Vibrant Android Development] a4 moda:
That's excellent.

WIFI CALLING !!
[Vibrant Android Development] trill12:
Dear god, please see if its possible to add the gb lock animation.
[Vibrant Android Development] jh180:

[Vibrant Android Development] jh180:
Oh my that would make my year :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] TJBunch1228:
Dear Som......

Take your time, brother. V3 is more than enough for now. V4 will come at the right time. Changelog above looks amazing, glad you're taking a little extra time to make sure it's polished.
[Vibrant Android Development] vamp6x6x6x:
That's awesome :) Two questions though:

Did he fix it so games like Pocket God don't run all laggy?

Is there anyway he could add the screen-off animation from gingerbread or is it to late?
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Now will the 1.2 GHZ project core kernal work on V4 of this rom?

If not any other Overclocking kernals compatible ?
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
1. It's not listed so why would you ask, it's not out for us to know.

2. This has been discussed many times, and I can almost guarantee, NO. It's a kernel feature and this isn't going to be a 2.3 ROM so no 2.3 Kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] vapotrini:
The scree-off animation cannot be added from what I understand. It's embedded within Gingerbread. Can't just be ripped out.
[Vibrant Android Development] vamp6x6x6x:
Because I love asking questions.

I know I have read just about every topic about it here, but the way I see it if anyone can do it it would be TW.
[Vibrant Android Development] PhilUSAF21:
oh awesome thanks som!! v4 here i come

and if we have crt screen off animation omg im goin to be so happy!!!!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] PhilUSAF21:
but above all take ur time with v4 (: we will be patiently waiting
[Vibrant Android Development] dougross:
Darn was very happy running V3 until I saw the change log. Time to back up and prepare for flashing :)

Hay Sombionix need you to get a Archos 101 would love to see you and TW polish that thing up :)
[Vibrant Android Development] FitzMichael:
Can't wait for the Final version.

Nero v3
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
That was for 2.1, it will not work on ANY 2.2 rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Darn, thanks hit, are there any compatible atm?
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
There are a few, check the development section over Team whiskey's forum, ttbal and morfic cooked a few working kernels.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
thanks han
[Vibrant Android Development] C-4Nati:
A question, I don't like mine data signal saying h so wen v4 comes out how would I change it?
[Vibrant Android Development] funeralthirst:
there are the DOW (destroyer of worlds) kernels on tw's page with various ocs up to 1.4ghz. but be warned, they are i9000 kernel based because vibrant 2.2 kernel source hasn't been released, so the battery life is simply terrible. like 'i went to sleep with it fully charged and woke up and it was dead' bad, even with battery calibration. but they are monsters for performance (19 linpack on dow14 to give an idea). until i started running voodoo, i kept dow14 and super io on my phone and would flash dow for performance and flash super io for daily/battery stuff since flashing a kernel is very low impact and quick to do.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
I'll make an update.zip after v4 comes out.

EDIT: Maybe a Metamorph
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
so, better off staying with just 1ghz voodoo thats preinstalled. Cool thanks...

Pondering a(nother) Nexus S

I have a question hopefully someone can answer:

I currently have a Samsung Vibrant but on 12/23/10 I purchased a Nexus S because I wanted to try out Gingerbread. When I got the phone home I noticed that the phone signal on the Nexus S was a little better than my Vibrant. My house is located in a "dead spot" and service is not the best. In fact, I get a "message not sent" message about 30% of the time with the Vibrant. My Nexus S sent messages flawlessly and I didnt get one failed sent message during the week I had it. I took the Nexus S back to Best Buy about a week later. (only wanted to see how well gingerbread works)

Now I'm back to my Vibrant and I'm thinking about installing the V3 ROM. Has anyone noticed an increase in signal quality since installing this ROM? I realize the phone is faster but is the signal any better? If the signal quality is not improved I guess I will have to put this phone on eBay and take another trip to Best Buy. :)

Thanks in advance,

Rich
[Vibrant Android Development] z3NN9:
Som said voodoo enabled to start.. Does that mean we wont have to disable it to update?

Nero v3 / voodoo504

sbg 2.2 +
[Vibrant Android Development] MiaS13:
Wow im kind of excited for v4. He said done by 4pm. So that means any minute now it will release. Sweeet
[Vibrant Android Development] vamp6x6x6x:
Actually I thought he meant his time 4pm which his time is 2hrs behind EST I believe...the reason I know this is because I have been following this topic a very long time now.
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
I'd prefer if there's no set times for release and the guys just work at their own pace. That being said, looking forward to v4.
[Vibrant Android Development] donalgodon:
If I'm coming directly from the leaked JL5 Froyo (not the stock 2.1 ROM) would I be okay to update directly to V.4 when it arrives?
[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
yes-----------
[Vibrant Android Development] BamaQ:
He's in Utah, USA... quite sure he means around 4p MST... If you're on the East Coast like I am, we'll have another few hours.

Keep up the great work, Som! I'll be flashing Nero v4 as soon as it's ready and posted!
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
Jl5 had helped some with signal, myself included. But, I still gave terrible reception in the house and text messages don't send and forger trying to send a picture message. The best way around it is to use the wifi calling app. I have perfect service everywhere more then in the basement. The vary lasts longer with it on too because its not dealing with weak signal strength
[Vibrant Android Development] Madmax0609:
Thank you for responding! I will try the Wifi App. Can I use the Wifi app with the stock Vibrant ROM? And can I send text and picture messages with the wifi app??
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
yes you will, upon bootup it will just start converting. instead of having to remove the disable.voodoo file.

so yes must still disable before flashing anything..
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
Not accurate I'm afraid. With the supercurio's current releases, this isn't neccessary. As long as the kernel your flashing still supports ext4 (as in another voodoo kernel), you don't need to disable. Just don't try going back to a stock kernel without disabling first.
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
I don't think wifi will with unless your on a froyo rom. Yes everything sends fast. Only thing slower is receiving picture messages
[Vibrant Android Development] qwertyuiop74123:

Need Help.

I flash the V3 with out Voodo on my wife's phone. Everything works fine, but for the past couple of days, I am not able to mount the SD card to load files on her phone.

When I connect the phone, the phone recognizes the that the USB has been connected and I choose the option to mount it, but I dont see it on the desk top.

It used to work fine before. I have tried different USB ports, same result.
[Vibrant Android Development] secretseven:
on the phone you have to pull down your notification bar and tap to enable copying of files
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
I had some issues with the drivers of the official Samsung site. Try downloading and installing the ones linked in the Vibrant Bible.

I have nero v.3 with voodoo enabled, with slightly better ginger bread 2.2.2 modifications. Can I simply flash nero v.4 over this or would I need to restore the original nero v.3 theme and disable the lagfix before flashing through cwm?
[Vibrant Android Development] justlovejoy:
i have been running this rom since its release and for some odd reason i feel that its getting kinda old to me. i have only gone back and forth with this and the alpha sense rom. in the beginning i tried the remixes and didnt really approve so i went back to this. now i am wondering if i just miss flashing new releases every 18 hours or what. will there be any more releases of nero or is the final cut?
[Vibrant Android Development] xtone:
you can flash over themes. not an issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
He says he is going to release v4 soon.
[Vibrant Android Development] TJBunch1228:
Well Nero ROMs do a wipe before they're installed, so you should be fine. Alot of folks would suggest you rock out with your stock out via ODIN, just to get rid of any magic fairy goblins, but that's your call. Can always ODIN to stock later if something goes wrong.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
4 still eta? 9 mins left lol

[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
Please don't talk about ETAs, have some respect and keep this thread on topic.
[Vibrant Android Development] junxracr:
A lot of people know what your going through, been on good stuff for awhile, probably just jonzin

[Vibrant Android Development] kusotare:
Seriously guys, you've been using the rom for weeks, another day or two or three isnt going to hurt anything. The TW guys will release it when its ready to be released. Theres a thousand and one things that could be keeping them from dropping it right now ranging from bug smashing to Som simply having a beer at his local pub.

So find something to occupy yourselves for a bit, screaming "i want! i want!" isnt going to make it happen any sooner. As my old man used to say, "want in one hand, crap in the other, and tell me which fills up first."
[Vibrant Android Development] TJBunch1228:
Seriously, if I was Som, i'd add 30 min to the release clock for every damn ETA post. Chill the eff out, your phone isn't going to self destruct if v4 doesn't hit RIGHT NOW!!!

Go have a hoho or something.
[Vibrant Android Development] chupacabra613:
hoho's taste good...
[Vibrant Android Development] sch-i760:
I want my rom and I want it now! Just kidding! The world is a selfish place. It's all me me me. People are acting like they can't use their phone without the rom. I don't know about you but my phone has been runnin great with v3. If you want somethin so bad take an intrest ,read, learn & make your own rom. Thank you to all devs for their time and effort.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:

This is probably a long shot but have you tried a different usb cord? I have heard that in isolated cases this is what the problem was.
[Vibrant Android Development] trill12:
This is what happens when an Android phone has limited builds. I hate what Samsung has done to us Vibrant owners. We havent even gotten an official FROYO yet.

Anyway, you guys should calm down. Itll release when it releases. No reason to heckle the guy or constantly whine in the thread.
[Vibrant Android Development] TJBunch1228:
Why's that? It would get impatient pricks like you to stfu about free updates and would leave this thread uncluttered and on topic.

It was obviously hyberbole, but it has merit in its intention.

And if you don't like hohos - you sir, are worse than Hitler.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
quick question: can we still flash over v3 with v4 if lagfix is enabled or does it need to be disabled? thank you.

Really? What good is it going to do. Give the man some time and let him upload the best ROM ever made to date :-) I know this stuff is going to be good v3 was the ****.

Relax, have fun, and get excited lol
[Vibrant Android Development] aabritt:
i believe any lagfix has to be disabled.

and in response to those wanting the ROM - im ready for it myself, yes we need to give Som and TW all the time they need, however, it doesnt mean others need to be so nasty in their responses.

everyone on both sides just need to take a chill pill, im anxious about it too and keep hitting refresh, however, im not begging, and im most certainly not bashing those that are begging
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
ODIN first, then flash if you dont want any weird issues to possibly pop up. It's better starting clean than being sorry in the long run.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
you have to disable voodoo before flashing, but no need for oclf.... Just flash over that one.
[Vibrant Android Development] Fedburin:
I never disable Voodoo. Nero supports ext4. Just make sure you flash from within the red CWM rather than rebooting to recovery through the rom manager.
[Vibrant Android Development] TJBunch1228:
Going neutral, UN style. Nice.

For me, the problem lies with the fact that 2 sides even exist. Som doesn't owe us a damn thing and we should be happy with what we get when we get it. How many Nero updates have there been compared to stock Sammy updates. Nuff said. The man can take all the time he needs to get it just how he wants it and how we've asked for it.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Hahaha like me? If you go read back a couple of pages, you'll see I've never asked for an eta, so you should stop being the idiot you are, and be smart about who you consulting with bud.

Ps: is ha-hos something to keep your idiocy going throughout the day? If so, I recommend you not drink that.

Voodoo must be disabled if going to a non voodoo capable rom. If it has voodoo already then no need to disable. Btw many people can confirm including myself

Onyx 4.2 was my favorite rom,until.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Yeah, I noticed this myself, its app related. However, this doesn't break accounts and syncing, it just skips the step on the initial boot. You can still sign into your accounts as you normally would once your phone is booted.

The OP could be missleading to someone who is new to voodoo.....like myself. I was only offering a possible cause for the guys problems. If the OP would have stated NOW supports larger nand chips I would of understood and never said anything. As is, the OP seems to say it only supports larger nand chips to someone that didn't know that only smaller nand chips were supported in the past. Now I know......

[Vibrant Android Development] elrojo:
(Maybe someone already addressed this but... ) "Support", doesn't imply "require" it just means it won't bork with larger Nands (which was once the case, since no one even knew there were larger nands in newer versions of the phone). Not sure what your problem is, but I recommend, reading up a bit on flashing.

A few things that keep coming up:

1. If you aren't running voodoo 5.x already, make sure you disable any lagfixes.

2. If you are having problems, and are running voodoo 5.x disable it.

3. Make sure your recovery menu is red or green otherwise, you arent doing it right.

4. Dont get to recovery via rom manager, if you dont have red/green recovery, you are using stock recovery, find out how to flash clockworkmod first (search!)

5. If you've ruled out step 1-4 you likely need to odin to stock first (its a pain, but is a safer bet, note: i didn't need to but ive been running nero since b2).

6. Still stuck, try Odining eugenes jk6 rom before doing this stuff.

7. Read, learn, mess up... odin, read, learn, dont mess up.

8. Ask questions in QA.

9. There are posts (linked to earlier in this very topic) about how to get voodoo to work for people that couldnt get voodoo to work.

10. Learn the difference between voodoo kernel, voodoo lagfix, voodoo clockworkmod recovery (if you dont, then you've some lurnin' to do)
