There is an icon in your notification bar for GPS but it only appears when your GPS is active.

Having your GPS on all the time does not impact your battery because it is only active when an app like Maps activates it.

Having your wi-fi on when not needed can drain your battery.

That said, I have had my wi-fi on all day with my phone off the charger for 13 hrs with very light use and have only dropped to 74% of battery life.

Does this ROM also include the full version of ThinkFree Office or the one that doesn't allow editing?

Noob Question???

I need to know about step 3

1. I rooted my phone

2. I downloaded Rom Manager and installed cwm

3. Do I need to format my microsd card and partition it before I install this rom???
[Vibrant Android Development] geocepe:
No you do not. You just need to flash nero v3

I am having problems connecting to my exchange server at work. It was working fine in the beta but now i cant connect to the server. The server is working fine at work. What gives?
[Vibrant Android Development] donalgodon:
Sorry, I should have been more clear.

I'm asking about two things which I did not specify.

1. The version of ThinkFree Office (as I understand) on the official ROM allowed edits, whereas the free version on the Marketplace doesn't. I'd heard some discussion that the version shifted between ROM updates from the full version to the free (non-edit allowing) option, so I was inquiring about this.

2. Those who have signed up for the Swype beta program get access to the latest beta, which by all accounts is better than any included on the current shipping ROM or the leaked variant. I'm asking if the Swype beta can be installed following the above instructions.

No voodoo

I can't be the only one experiencing this problem. I was running a stock 2.1 with oclf. I jumped on with the nero v3 asap. I followed the instructions, delagified but leaving rooted via oclf, and flashed the nero v3. Following which i went in deleted the disable voodoo file, rebooted into clockwork and when it searched for the instal voodoo lag fix or whatever the name, it wasn't there. Funny thing is when i rebooted (having flashed nothing) it went through all the cyber lady countdown thing "4 minutes" but i don't see what i could have done except delete the disable voodoo and reboot....
[Vibrant Android Development] bossman137:
I tried different boot method "holding down power button and selecting recovery" and it took me to the desired RED recovery voodoo, turns out without choosing to flash it, just the mere act of deleting that file it says to in the origional post did it, because it said it was already enabled for me. Just FYI

Awsome ROM. I am always the one who runs into all the problems so this time I said screw it, I got nothing to lose and did a titanium and a clockwork backup. Undid my oclf then loaded the rom by doing rom manager load from sd and off it went flawlessly. I did this all while controlling my 1.5yo twins while cooking them dinner. Couldnt have asked for a smoother load. Thanks Team Whiskey.

[Vibrant Android Development] Blaqhawk:
Another option is to load the Verizon version (I think it is the Captivate) of the camera app. It is floating around here in XDA somewhere and can be flashed through clockwork. I have been using out for a long time and love the layout/haven't had any problems with it. It also had the GPS option in the menu. Not hard to find at all. PM me if you want to try it out and can't find the file our have questions. Out really is simple. Eminem, even though I quoted you, this message isn't directed at you. I am just adding additional info to your post.

OK, time to share what I've found! Yesterday a member from Florida (smoothone) modified the Galaxy tab email app. It is awesome! It has many more features than the one on our phones. In his mod he fixed it so that you can now see the bottom of the screen. You can sync from there and the menu will allow you to do multiple deletes. When I put it in system/app it just showed up automatically and my yahoo account was already synced (go figure) Had to manually sync the google account, but no biggie. I'll try to post a link so you can read up on it. His post is on the last page, and I'll post the .apk. It is not installable, you'll have to put it in system/app using Root Manager and change permissions.:D

BTW rename the present .apk to email.apk.bak before you move this to system app. That way you can go back if you don't like it.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] willcwells:
Hey, thanks for the info. I did as you suggested and googled hardware fix. It turned up an article about an app made by Samsung called GpsRestore, available in the market. I'm wondering, has anybody tried this app? Will it have adverse effects if used with this rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] DangerousDave:
Samsung GPSrestore will not have adverse effects if you run it.

It simply sets the default settings among other things then try's to lock on satellites.

Actually if you have GPS problems and Samsung's app fails to lock on satellites you can try to call T-mobile and get a replacement phone. Some have reported success doing this.

Thanks. All I could find was the blue, and pink ones
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:

Actually, the hardware fix involves bending the antennae contact up just a bit so it makes better contact. It is risky, though. Some have broken it and had to replace with something bought at Radio Shack. The software fix involves going into GPSTest mode and changing settings. Problem is I have a brain like swiss cheese and something I read just yesterday I can't remember today. LOL! I'll start looking. I think the software fix can be found in the Vibrant Bible (not sure) I do have the correct code to get to it through the phone dialer. *#3214789650#

This is the link to the software fix. Beware, I'm too chicken to mess with this! It's interesting reading.

[Vibrant Android Development] badaphooko01:
Did you install some custom fonts? That might be the problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] DangerousDave:
I am guessing you installed a custom font that is not compatible.

Uninstall any custom fonts you have installed you can then install them one by one test each as you install it to find the problem font.

This is a common problem.

Hope this helps
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Nero V3

Or you re-installed a previous custom font that no longer exists under the current rom. It can't be said enough. One must be very selective in what app data you restore with Titanium!:)
[Vibrant Android Development] MonteCristo22:
Love the rom. Very Fast. But a couple of questions. . .

The Alarm & Clocks app seems to be the same one I have had all along. However, now when I set a one-time alarm it doesn't set the day to the next current day. It stays on the last day the alarm was set for. E.g. If I set the alarm last night (Saturday) to wake me up on Sunday at 9am and then go into to edit that same one time alarm to wake me up on Monday at 8am, the day of the week stays at Sunday. Whereas, before it would automatically jump it to the next day, Monday. Anyone else? Is there a setting I can change somewhere I have overlooked to get it back to that setting. I'm showing a version of 1.0. Is this the one and only version?

Some one else made a comment about this, but I don't think it was answered. When starting a new text message, you used to have a couple of buttons below the addressee field where you could it would jump you to a selectable field of contacts or another buttons that would list "recent contacts". Those are now gone. Anyone know what (or have the) .apk to push to get the old version back? Any advantages of this new one over that old one?

Memo.apk wasn't included into this rom, I was finally able to push it, but when I went to TB to restore my data, there is no longer a restore available, am I SOL or is there another way to get that data back.

Thanks in advance
[Vibrant Android Development] A7R:
First off, sorry if this has been asked already, I did a search for "lag fix battery drain" and nothing came up.

Loving the rom so far, and I don't know if it's just me, but I've noticed a huge increase in battery life since I installed Nero v3. Originally I rooted my vibrant just to install the lag fix, but now I'm not so sure if I should anymore (still lagging a bit and my benchmark is about 950).

So my question is, how bad does the lag fix drain the battery?

Thanks in advanced.
[Vibrant Android Development] superchi:
I have voodoo enabled since I flashed Nero V3 and the battery life is amazing. I've used the previous Bionix/Team Whiskey roms and wasn't experiencing good battery life but this rom is a complete turnaround for me. I haven't kept a close eye but the last time I checked, from light use (a few short phone calls and some light internet browsing so basically idle), it took about 15-16 hours to drop to 90%. Before, my phone would be near half dead at idle.
[Vibrant Android Development] nastynateyj:
I'm having a couple issues with the ROM and I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this....

The first is with the lock screen. When the screen shuts off regardless if it's when I let the screen time out or hit the power button to shut the screen off, when I wake the phone up it goes right to the launcher, not the lock screen. I've tried it with ADW, Launcher Pro and Zeam, all with the same results, and I've tried to change all the settings with no luck.

Second is with the 'MTM Gingerbread Green' keyboard. When a word is misspelled and you select the correct replacement word from the menu, instead of replacing the entire word it inserts the correctly spelled word in the middle of the existing word.

I've played with all the settings and reset the phone but can't seem to figure it out.

This is an AWESOME ROM!!!

Thanks so much Team Whiskey!!
