Anyone having issues downloading .apk files? I can't seem to download any...
[Vibrant Android Development] anthonys2r:
Its just good practice, gets you used to flashing new stuff on the safe side. You could update to a new rom without Odin back to stock but people still do it anyways.
[Vibrant Android Development] Munk0:
I Odin'ed back to JFD first before installing Nero 3. Just to see if there is a difference between ROM's I used the version without Touchwiz. I really, really like the animations and if someone has a way to get it back, I'd appreciate it.
[Vibrant Android Development] eggnoodle:
how did you get apk files to download??
[Vibrant Android Development] bobbbb:
Welll..... not really. I mean I can understand using ODIN to go stock prior to flashing, but disabling voodoo of all lagfixes to flash a modem or theme or mod or whatever is just a silly waste of time :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] bobbbb:
Well, one option is to place the .apk in your /system/app directory and then you can use Files or AndroZip or some other file program to manually install it just by clicking on it...
[Vibrant Android Development] eggnoodle:
i try to download an .apk from 4shared.com and i keep getting an error

message - 'cannot download. the content is not supported on the phone'

Any idea how to fix this?
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
Download astro file manager. In options choose allow web downloads.
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
Or browser downloads
[Vibrant Android Development] jlaval:
it definitely worked;p
[Vibrant Android Development] jpahlow:
I odin'd to JFD and threw on nero3. I go into messaging to compose new text and click the to: field and nothing happens. I'll assume its just me because I haven't read any mention of similar issue. Advice?
[Vibrant Android Development] ohnoezmahfone:
Shutdown noise and boot animation

There are a few things that I find myself doing every time I flash a TW rom:

Replacing the stock 2.2 Email.apk with the 2.1 Email.apk, which does not enforce my company's retarded Exchange remote administrator policies (pin lock and remote wipe). Use the attached apk and push it to /system/app/ with "adb push Email.apk /system/app/"

disable the shutdown noise. You do this by adb shelling into the phone, navigating to /system/media/audio/ui/, and removing or changing shutdown.ogg (mv shutdown.ogg shutdown.ogg.backup, e.g.)

Replacing the boot animation with the Nexus One boot animation from an earlier TW release. Use the attached bootanimation.zip, and do "adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/". Don't unzip it, just push the zip.

...If anyone finds it helpful.
[Vibrant Android Development] astro man:
I wanted to know will you be adding the fcc mod in there with this amazing rom
[Vibrant Android Development] Darksurf:
I'm having issues with networking in general. Its seems I cannot get a fully stable data connection with v3. Before I flashed V3 everything worked OK. Even my wifi seems slow with Opera and the opera turbo option enabled if that says anything. Beautiful widgets complains like once every 2 hours saying it cannot use geolocation.

So data connection wise, (fresh wipe install, ODINed, etc. done) I'm not getting a stable connection. I have noticed like boosts then drops. Could be my imagination, but sometimes its really fast, then just dies off and takes forever to load a web page.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
See my thread for adding back the animations.

I also have a .zip version of the Nexus boot animations in my thread that's flashable with CWM if that's easier for anyone. Thanks for the 2.1 Email.apk.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jajunkis:
Wificalling.apk breaks swype what a bummer
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:

[Vibrant Android Development] DangerousDave:
Nothing will happen until you start typing a name. When you do, suggestions will begin to appear.
[Vibrant Android Development] MrGibbage:
That is pretty good, but I think you can do better. Losing 6% overnight is a little high. You should only lose 2 or 3%. You might want to look for apps that aren't sleeping properly. But overall, you are doing pretty good on battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] NogaroS4:
I had the same problem after restoring all the programs from backup. I went into the market and searched for 1 app, opened it within market. I exited out and when I went back into the market all the apps showed back up. Hope that works for you.

This is the only the 2nd rom I've installed..1st being V2. Loving it..thanks tw

merry xmas to everyone
[Vibrant Android Development] ThC23:

Is anyone having trouble with MMS messages? I sent 3 pictures to my girlfriend last night and she didnt get them. I tried resending, still no luck.

ALSO,

Is there a way to get the rotary battery indicator on this ROM? The one that has a counter in the middle and bars going around the counter? Changes from Blue (Full) to Red (Empty)

Is anyone else experiencing lots of problems with V3? Beautiful widgets wont animate unless I download some fix and once I download it it asks me to download again, the web force closes data connectivity sucks and even with voodoo enable the phone is laggier than v2.

I have tried reflashing and I did odin back to stock before flashing the rom but that didn't change anything does anyone know what the problem might be?
[Vibrant Android Development] JessJames:
Hey girls and boys. Hope santa came. Perhaps someone can give me a present... im having difficulty.

I upgraded from v2 to v3 and my wifi signal appears to have dropped off significantly. From 2/3 full to empty.

What I can't tell is whether this is a genuine drop or an imaginary drop. In other words is it the modem giving me worse signal or the rom displaying the wrong answer?

Anyone have any similar experiences or any advice on why this might be?

Merry christmas.

[Vibrant Android Development] tonydatechnyc:
Can some one tell me how come my sd card doesn't pop up when I use USB the only one is the internal card. I'm running Nero 3. Can you PM me thank you
[Vibrant Android Development] FitzMichael:
Check your Setting it works fine.

Nero v1 / VooDoo / JL4
[Vibrant Android Development] JessJames:
EXCITING CHRISTMAS UPDATE : OK so I restored my nandroid back to v2. So I'm assuming that as well as the voodoo kernel not being replaced by nandroid, that the JL5 modem is also not replaced.

Basically anything which remains when you do a nandroid restore is still v3, everything else is back to v2, and my wifi is back to where it should be.

I have no idea why this would be, but since it's the season of sharing... :)
[Vibrant Android Development] RicFusion:
Mine does that too, but only if I have debug mode enabled. If you uncheck debug (Menu---> Settings---> Applications---> Developement---> Uncheck USB Debugging) that should take care of it.
[Vibrant Android Development] nraudigy2:
Is this Android 2.2.1?
[Vibrant Android Development] RicFusion:
Nope, 2.2 Froyo.
[Vibrant Android Development] nraudigy2:
Vibrant doesn't have 2.2.1 yet?
[Vibrant Android Development] RicFusion:
Im sure someone has a rom running 2.2.1, but whats the point when most of the current cooked roms incorporate some sort of Gingerbread 2.3 in them already?
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
Actually, I usually have problems with lag on tw roms but this one screams. My bw animations are working fine. This is my favorite rom so far (and i'm a flashoholic). I just with I could get battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] sano614:
Here you go. It's attached.
[Vibrant Android Development] MrGibbage:
The "reconditioning" is way over-rated. If you aren't getting good battery life then you most likely have an app (or apps) that aren't sleeping properly. It won't be easy, but you need to get SystemPanel and look at each app that is running, and analyze the trends over a couple of days to see what is taking up your CPU cycles (which equals battery juice).

Good luck!
[Vibrant Android Development] DangerousDave:
I use Beautiful Widgets and have no issues with.

No problems with lag.
[Vibrant Android Development] sano614:
Should I Odin to stock JFD, JI6 or the unofficial 2.2?

I tried installing this over JI6, but it messed up my haptic feedback. So I'm going to Odin back to stock, but have no idea where to start...

Any help would be appreciated!
[Vibrant Android Development] jereader:
I've run quite a few roms on my vibrant, and so far this is the best. No lag with our without voodoo. Very slick ui graphics. Excellent modem performance wifi/edge/3g.

I'm ready digging the gingerbread launcher, not missing touchwiz at all. I guess really I just wanted to fast thank you. Keep up the great work.
[Vibrant Android Development] RicFusion:
The only place I experience lag on this rom is when waking the phone (which I've seen on any rom i've used thus far) and when doing way too many things at once, and even then lag is very momentary, doesn't even usually last long enough to effect anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
The Bell Vibrant does, but I think the hardware is actually closer to a Captivate. However Eugene_373 used the optimizations Samsung made to the 2.2.1 file system to make the Super IO kernel. Some of his builds are 2.2.1, but most builds you'll find are still 2.2.
[Vibrant Android Development] RicFusion:
Jd, you seem to be running the exact same setup as myself, do you have any recommendations as far as settings or things that I might enable/disable to improve performance overall?

Edit* I forgot to mention that I did use quadrant (although I read somewhere else that it's not really a reliable benchmark) and that my score the first time was 1477, and the second was around 1600...Does that sound about right?
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
The Super IO kernel has the .ko modules from 2.2.1, but NONE of Eugene's roms are based on 2.2.1. He stated in another thread that there were issues with rebooting when switching from 3G to Edge. Heathen is the only person to release a 2.2.1 build (JPU) ported to the Vibrant but it suffered wifi issues as well as the reboot issue when switching from 3G to Edge.

Also, does the Bell Vibrant (Canada) really have 2.2.1? I thought only the international version received the update. Going to research this.
[Vibrant Android Development] kanwal236:
Team whiskey, maybe you guys forgot but, the thinkfree app is missing from the touchwiz rom.

And i'd like it back, i'd rather have it for free than pay the market price for it =P

Sent from my SXY-T959
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
Thanks for the correction. I did run one of Eugene's ROMs around that time (maybe one of the Macnuts?) that declared 2.2.1 as the firmware version, but he probably just forgot to edit build.prop. It wouldn't be the first time, his first Gingerbread clone said 2.3 haha. Sorry for any confusion.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Ah yes you are correct. I think it was the initial release of GingerClone that said 2.2.1 in the About Phone section. And no worries! Happy Holidays! :)

Oh, and since we are in TW's thread it only seems right to say that Nero V3 is absolutely awesome. Excellent work TW as always!

I tried flashing off eugenes r2 and it gave me E: abort or something. The hell?
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
I've been working so much on themes and update packages for my thread in spare time that I haven't really got around to that yet. If you're a Titanium user I would recommend freezing any unnecessary apps/processes that you see with any task manager that can see system processes. Screen Filter is a good program for saving battery, plus I like a dim screen. As for Quadrant, That's looks somewhere in the average - high level for this ROM, but I've seen over 2400 on some others. That's what people mean by it not being a good gauge on system performance, as this ROM runs just as good, if not better than some ROMs that run a much higher Quadrant. Sorry I couldn't help you more bro.
[Vibrant Android Development] sano614:
Hate to bump this, but does anyone know? Itching to try this ROM again, with everything working. :D

Problems with flashing

Why are so many people having problems flashing this rom? I downloaded and flashed about 20 minutes after it was posted, no problems. Of course though I did a strange thing and

followed the directions

. Even had to use the update for voodoo later that day. I am a newbie to flashing, so people follow the directions.

By the way,,,,Merry Christmas to all and thank you Team Whiskey
[Vibrant Android Development] ThC23:
I soft bricked my phone going from V1 to V2, so I Odin back to JI6 and everything worked just fine after flashing V2 over it and then V3 over V2! Haptic feedback works and everything!

So going back to JI6 should work just fine!
[Vibrant Android Development] Shazmania:
I really don't know which is why I asked for help.. I don't have a computer near by so can't coding. Help would be appreciated :)
[Vibrant Android Development] RicFusion:
I do have titanium, and have frozen a few apps, also messed around in spare parts turning off certain animations, things like that. I haven't noticed a real bad drain on my battery, but I'm pretty consistant in its charge times too. Thanks for your advice though. I'm definitely going to take a look at that Screen Filter. If you come across anything else that you notice helps, please let me know. Thanks again! And Merry Christmas to all and to all HAPPY DEVING!
[Vibrant Android Development] djallen1:
All I can say is brilliant! Never had such good battery life with stock or mod, GPS is spot on and everything runs fast. Donation forthcoming next paycheck (had to play Santa with the last one)....
[Vibrant Android Development] MrGibbage:
I pretty much always odin back to JFD before flashing any ROMs. Many here do the same thing, and it only takes about ten or fifteen minutes. There are probably times when it really wouldn't have made a difference, but I figure it really can't hurt. Odin is really very safe, and it is not likely to cause any problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] nraudigy2:
Do you get full 2GB for apps with voodoo installed or more like half of that? Very good battery life so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] jaxminzsky:
the only problem I've found, is changing into a language other than English for writing, using mtm gingerbread. closes the application.
[Vibrant Android Development] sparks.calvin:
Is it safe to flash this over V2 without disabling voodoo first since they will both have it?
[Vibrant Android Development] MrGibbage:
So it sounds like if the only change from one ROM to another is the updated Samsung leak, then it might be wise for the non-bleeding edge I-have-to-have-the-latest-ROM-the-minute-it-comes-out-no-matter-what kind of person to wait and see if there are any improvements to make it worth reflashing. I'm currently on V2, and it seems pretty stable. So far I haven't seen anyone posting here "Wow... JL5 fixed my underactive flux capacitor problem!" or "JL5 battery life has quadrupled", so I think I might wait a while.

Thanks! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] YR11:
How is battery life with this ROM? I'm hesitant to flash from GingerClone R1 because my battery life has been unbelievable.
[Vibrant Android Development] a1cshowoff:
Hey gents...

First off, awesome job on the rom. But I have 1 question. The browser that is included dies not word wrap correctly (or the way that I want it to.) I'm used to doubletapping text, it brings it into a zoom and word wraps everything so i only have to scroll down. THis version just pulls the whole text section into frame, but stays zoomed way out.

Is this a issue with browser version? Limitation of rom? And if it is another version, can someone point me to the right apk?

thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] Holeblocker:
I have the same problem too.

It was also there in V2.

thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] nkawal:
Just to verify again, we are only flashing this ROM in the RED RECOVERY correct. Also we are enabling voodoo in red also.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
I flashed the ROM in the green recovery. I didnt have to enable anything in the red and a simple reboot installed voodoo after I deleted that one file. But you would enable voodoo in the RED recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] eyedrop:
No, always disable voodoo before flashing another ROM.

I think the only time where you don't have to disable voodoo is when you ODIN back to stock, and then you can flash another ROM from there.
[Vibrant Android Development] eggnoodle:
newbie question - does this include Mobile AP?

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] DangerousDave:
Well the OP states to disable all lagfixes quoted below.

Installing Nero v3 w/voodoo 5.0.1:

1. Place nero_3_voodoo.zip on internal sdcard

2. Disable ANY and ALL other lagfixes (yes, this includes ext2 one click lagfix! You cannot run both)

I guess you could try to flash without disabling first and let us know how it goes:)

If you are not familiar with using odin ( in case something goes wrong ) I would disable voodoo first. It only takes a couple of minutes.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
Yes sir.
[Vibrant Android Development] lebron212:
Google search is forcing closing on me. I ran fix permissions but it is still fc' ing.

Great job Team Whiskey ... This Rom is one of the fastest I've tried ... following all the installation instructions ... all goes smoothly, I have installed from 6:00 am with battery at 100% ... with moderate use when I have 92% .. I'm waiting for draining all the battery first to make a Battery reconditioning ... In general this ROM is great ... thank you very much ...

and sorry for my English ... I am from Quito - Ecuador ...

[Vibrant Android Development] VVerevvolf:
Flashed this morning - Very new to rooting and flashing and this is my first custom ROM (had the stock FROYO since Friday).

Looks great and is fast (Quadrant score, for what it's woth, was below 1,000 with stock FROYO now at 1,500 with Nero v3 and Voodoo!)

One question - how do you get rid of the prepackaged bookmarks? When I hold down on them and select Delete or Edit I get "This bookmark cannot be deleted/edited.

PROBLEM SOLVED - I restored my bookmaks with Ti backup!!
[Vibrant Android Development] lqaddict:
It is safer to disable dragons, but with the latest transitions from ext4 powered ROM's to another ext4 powered ROM no need to disable it.

i.e. stock jfd -> flashed nerov1 -> installed jl4+voodoo by supercurio -> flashed nerov2+voodoo without disabling voodoo -> flashed nerov3+voodoo w/o disabling voodoo.

if you come from a ROM that has older voodoo install, you better disable it.

If you have any other lagfixes installed, read the OP.

HTH.
[Vibrant Android Development] cjggilbert:
No it isn't like OCLF, you get the 'almost' 2 GB

AWESOME ROM. I was itching the to flash a ROM for a while. I moved from my HD2 to HD7. So my options were very limited. But I could not resist anymore and rooted my wife's SGS and flashed this ROM. Ginger Bread is GREAT. I don't know why anyone would have to upgrade to Nexus S anymore.

how exactly do i remove swype? i can't do it through applications (won't allow it) and can't even uninstall through astro.

im trying to put the 2.10 version up.
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Nero V3

The swype.apk is in System/app. You should append the name first 'swype.apk.bak' by renaming it that, then try installing your new swype once you have it on your sd card. If the installer won't install it, then place it in System/app and change the permissions to rw-r--r--. Then you can move or delete the old one. Move it to SD card just to be safe if you need to go back to it.:)

Edit: Sorry, you'll need root explorer to do this and to, of course, be rooted.
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:

Shouldn't there be an icon in the notification bar when the GPS is on? I was just going to drain down my battery since I wasn't getting good battery life today. Then I noticed my GPS has been on. (Probably all day) LOL!:D
