[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
I've done a quick search but haven't really found what I need. Just wondering, does v3 have proper Gingerbread icons in the status bar (proper GPS icon that looks like a target and not the one that looks like a satellite) and have all icons changed to Gingerbread ones? I remember v2 had some icons changed to Gingerbread ones, but not all. Thanks for any responses.

Been using this rom for the past week or so and loving it..Only thing is lately its been running sorta laggy. I have the voodoo lagfix enabled and everything but it lags to the point its getting frustrating. Am I the only one having this issue...A few times it froze for like 5-10 seconds and twice it completely froze and I had to restart the phone..
[Vibrant Android Development] eggnoodle:
From what i've been reading on this thread, it could be a bad download. You might want to redownload and flash again...
[Vibrant Android Development] secretseven:
mine used to lag at the home screen, found out it was the buddies now widget. still can't get audio to send in a mms, if i select attach>audio it crashes, attach>record audio it crashes. any ideas?
[Vibrant Android Development] DroidDavi:
Im loving this rom my battery life is great but I do use juice defender and I under clock when screen if off with set cpu
[Vibrant Android Development] svadimr:
Great Rom and great battery life, I feel significant improvement over the last I had.

There are couple of problems that still exist:

1. gps lock is very long and not so accurate, maybe I missed solution for that in the thread.

2. Much more important for me, the size of sd card and internal memory are wrong. I put 16 GB card and it shows that I have only 14.8, while when I connect to pc it shows 15.6. The card is full and it can't see couple of files that I copied.

3. If external sd card is full it doesn't allow to move app to internal sd in spite of fact it is empty.

Thank you all for the hard work and the great help.

Question

I know this will be a stupid question but this is my first time to root and flash a ROM. I followed to Noob guide exactly and everything worked great, up until I rebooted into recovery. When I click on "install zip from sd card," the zip file doesn't show up. Other folders from my SD card do, but not Nero. I have checked multiple times, and it is in the correct place (internal SD card) on my phone. Do I need to put it into the folder named "sd"? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] svadimr:
Are you sure you used internal sd card and not external?
[Vibrant Android Development] brooke00000:
Fairly positive. When I check my files on the phone itself, I have an "sd" folder with Avatar on it. Nero is not in there. The zip file is where Titanium Backup et al. are. Thanks for the quick reply!

I used update.zip to root my phone in the first place. This is also not showing up when I look for zip files on my SD card in clockwork recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] Castle5665:
I'm not sure what affect this has on pictures duplicating. I do, however, know that I normally usb to a Windows XP laptop and have no problems. When I use my Windows 7 laptop I show duplicate and sometimes triplicate photos from the gallery. When I usb to the Windows XP laptop again, disconnect and check the gallery....everything is back to normal. Until I usb to the Windows 7 laptop again. Why? No idea.
[Vibrant Android Development] brooke00000:
Could I use the "install ROM from SD Card" option? When I click that, Nero shows up.
[Vibrant Android Development] badaphooko01:
Yes you could.
[Vibrant Android Development] brooke00000:
Thanks! Appears to be loading the ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] ktorres1120:
Love this rom to death. Super fast.

One thing that I can't figure out is I can't sync my Facebook with my contacts so that the facebook info (profile pic, etc) appears. I've done it with V1 and V2 but for some reason it is not syncing now. I've gone through all the settings and selected everything to sync but nothing. Any ideas?

Thank you for this rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] Bernardos70:
If I understood you correctly, what you have to do is go to the contact you want to sync with facebook, hit menu, click "Join Contact" and then and then click "add friends." You can import whoever you want from there, then link them to the contact on your phone/google contact list.
[Vibrant Android Development] ktorres1120:
Yeah I've tried that but when I click to add friends or join the facebook contact with that contact, the Facebook contacts aren't there. I'll try uninstalling and re-syncing stuff and see what happens. Thanks for your help.
[Vibrant Android Development] vamp6x6x6x:
I like it. I mean it is going to take me a small bit to get use to the black green and gray vs the stock browser colors but I suppose in the end it will give me more battery life.

My question though is is their anyway for me to get the nexus s screen time out animation. I mean its cool like a tv going off or something.
[Vibrant Android Development] micanuck:
I have experienced this very thing.
[Vibrant Android Development] McBang2023:
Kill calls

Im not sure if anyone else has noticed, but if your on a call, and you hit the menu button and try to acces the "memo" option, your phone app will FC every time. i found this odd. wondered if anyone else has had issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] joe98200:
I can confirm this as well. I have not seen anything else FC so this is a first. I don't use the memo so I could care less but it seems to be a bug that resets your connection.
[Vibrant Android Development] Bernardos70:
I'm sorry, I said "add friends" when I meant to say you have to click on "Get Friends." From there you can import anyone that is in your Facebook. If that's what you did, something might have gone awry elsewhere, and I'm afraid I can't be of any further help.

I attached a screenshot displaying it:
[Vibrant Android Development] svadimr:
Interesting fact, titanium backup shows sizes correctly and this is the only app that do that. In all other apps internal sd card loose about one giga and external about 2 giga. Does any one experience the same problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
Yes you can.

I changed my bootanimation.zip (to the Galaxy S stock one) and now I have no boot animation at all. Vibrant, then black screen, then lockscreen.

WTF?
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
I'm on day three of this rom and can't imagine it being any faster, am I the only one not using voodoo? Seems perfect without. I ran the super I/o kernel and a jl5 voodoo before on current roms and it locked up more than this and wasn't as smooth
[Vibrant Android Development] willcwells:
I'm not using voodoo either and I have zero problems with this rom. I've been running tw roms since early bionix and have never used a lagfix nor have I ever felt the need to use one. Throughout all the flashing I've never had to use odin either (crossing fingers).
[Vibrant Android Development] kcp877:
I swear that this is faster without voodoo than anything I've tried. Quadrant says something else, but I don't see any lag at all, everything is instant and opens right up.

[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Nero V3

I've only been flashing roms since about Dec 1st. Whenever I had that problem it was always due to restored app data or an outdated 2.1 app that wasn't totally compatible with 2.2:) Be careful and selective on which app data you restore and that goes double for some 2.1 apps. Of course Never re-install system data!:)

help :< I rooted my phone i think im bricked....

installed nerov3, waited the 10 minutes did the reboot.. then i decided to try to enable voodoo by deleting the disablevoodoo file in the voodoo folder.. then i booted into clockwork recovery but i didnt see the enable voodoo option so i chose reboot instead...

thats where the constant "restore operation" reboot continues to repeat...

what do i do now :( do i odin and restore to stock? and if so can someone explain how?

[Vibrant Android Development] HotShotAzn:
It's Froyo 2.2.

There were a lot of stuff lifted from Gingerbread (see first post) but its still 2.2 based.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
No, this is not a gingerbread rom, its still android 2.2. However, the majority of the rom has been ported directly from my Nexus S which is running gingerbread. The only thing keeping this from being gingerbread is the kernel and some system files.

i'd confirm this. my phone locked in no time ( it never does even after 30 minutes )

[Vibrant Android Development] :
Two questions

First off, I want to say that I absolutely love this ROM. Two questions, though:

How come there isn't an option in my settings to leave the screen on when the USB is plugged in? I miss this feature...

Ever since v2, I haven't been able to download *anything* from the market. The "downloading" notification shows up for up a half second and then vanishes. Anybody else having this problem?

Thanks!

Curious up until Nero V3 I used the ULF V3 kernel you all had posted for a short time surprisungly enough I never had any issues with it, but now Voodoo 5 is out and its new and shiny and tempting I don't wanna go back to ULF but I already miss my BLN, is there any Voodoo 5 kernels with BLN that you know of or suggest? Thanks for the great Rom and all the work you do!
[Vibrant Android Development] agosine:
This will be my first time trying a custom ROM. The instructions look good and the 'Search' button is available so I am confident. Just one question. Does this completely wipe my device before the new ROM is loaded or does it just wipe the OS files only? Hope that makes sense. Still trying to understand exactly how Android works.

Feels like I'm learning my Zaurus ROMs all over again.
[Vibrant Android Development] junglerumble:
Nero v3 with vooodoo enabled. Is pinch to zoom acting weird for anyone else? Especially this site.

Loving the rom, really nice and fast

Edit: strange, now pinch to zoom is working perfectly. Lulz, is this phone self aware?
[Vibrant Android Development] boystuff:
This will wipe your device and any programs installed I suggest downloading titanium backup and backing up your programs, then for safety sake take tbe titanium back up folder and copy it to external SD. Never hurts to have back ups after rom install format internal SD copy titanium folder back to internal and reinstall.
[Vibrant Android Development] thenikeman:
I had the picture issue..try this:

Sombionix, thanks for all your hard work on this ROM. Liking it so far. With your permission, I'd like to do an accurate battery MOD. Can you let me know what the color code is for the color green in the gingerbread theme?
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
You should select reinstall packages from the blue recovery, twice, then install zip from sdcard, and then select the Nero 3 Voodoo zip file. That shall install Nero for you. Remember to disable all lagfixes !!
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
Slightly better Gingerbread theme:

I modified the framework-res.apk with the real Gingerbread GPS status bar icon, text select arrow, and a loading bar that isn't choppy. Everything else is exactly the same, but those things were buggin' me.

To install:

1. Use adb to push the file to /system/framework, or use Root Explorer or a similar file manager to paste it over the original.

2. Reboot, enjoy.

EDIT: Note you may have to setup Account & Sync again after applying.
[Vibrant Android Development] TJBunch1228:
Having the same problem with v2. Some seem to work, some just dissapear into space. Its a little frustrating. Hoping a flash to v3 sorts this out. It obviously didn't in your case...:confused:

Didn't you know... SOM is SKYNET
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
Are there screenshots ANYWHERE? Checked both sites. I find it odd this Nero series still has no accurate battery, it should come with it. Not necessarily with the numbers on it but at least an accurate representation of the battery level. I'm on v2 with voodoo and it rocks, wish more people tackled theming these roms, but i guess with the constant updates, itd be hard to keep up. I miss black froyo

First, hold down all three buttons to try to get into the red recovery menu. If you can get there either reboot or re-install packages. If that doesn't work, there is a guide of Odin in the Vibrant Bible. Read carefully and follow directions to the letter.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] Supremancy:
Is anybody having trouble sending pic mail? Also sometimes my web pages fail to load and I have to refresh like 3 times.

[Vibrant Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
kinda wierd

after a total odin stock>root>flash v3> i got to step 4 on voodoo and there was no voodoo lagfix menu but still after reboot it seems to have converted ext4 fine... at least thats what linda told me
[Vibrant Android Development] uchlha:
omg that might have been what happened. i might have stopped it during the conversion to ext4.... what do i do now :(
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Nero V3

That's exactly what I wanted to say the first time but I didn't see what good it would do. It pays to follow directions to the letter...and it wise to know how to get back from a problem before it ever happens. Go to the Vibrant Bible and read up on how to odin back to stock. And when you reflash next time, let it sit for 15 minutes and don't touch it. Then reboot and let it sit for another five. When you enable voodoo don't touch it!:)

There are several way to get to that red menu but for some reason people just can't get there through clockwork or by holding down all three buttons. It's easy but I won't go there. Next time do what you did this time. Delete that file and reboot or hold the power button an go into 'recovery' and choose 'enable voodoo' from the advanced tab.:)

Quick question that I asked a couple of pages back, but no one saw it (awwww):

Is the dialer themed? I'm not talking about before the call is in progress, I'm talking about in-call. When taking a call or after dialing the number, the dialer for me is not themed on the Nero v3 TW version. Is this how it is supposed to look, with the grey buttons and all, or did I restore a bit too much with titanium backup?
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Nero V3

It could be but I was thinking more of the Odin tutorial. BTW you could also google 'odin tutorial video' and watch any that you see. I can give you the Odin file and the pit file, but I do not think the Stock JFD file will upload. That is the one you need.:)

Edit: Turns out that the browser says those files are 'invalid' but you will find what you need in the Odin Tutorial. Place the Odin file the pit file and the Stock JFD rom all in the same folder and name it whatever you want. That way when you start Odin the pit and JFD files will be ready to place in their respective places.

Apparently the only way to get album art out of your gallery is to delete it manually. Placing a file called .nomedia in the music folder hides the artwork and the music itself from the music player as well. Placing it in external SD does the same and probably hides anything else (eg. videos).:) When I manually deleted three of the four duplicates of one title of my album artwork while in the gallery, it never came back but the artwork and music are still visible in the music app. Just so you'll know.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
I did that on accident too. I just rebooted and let it convert to ext4...all was/is good. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] SquareBare:
I noticed the same thing with Armored Defense, it slowed down to a standstill. I thought it was just a sluggish app until I read your comment.

I tried pocket god and can confirm that on this rom it stutters badly every few seconds.

Another problem I have is with the stock launcher, there seem to be problems when trying to position elements on some of the homescreens. For instance, I was trying to place things on the far left homescreen, and they were disappearing and winding up in a folder in my default home screen!

Launcher pro could obviously fix this, but the lagging apps are another issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] TheSVdeal:
This happened to me too the first time I flashed it. I kept it simple: Odin and reflash. No problems after that.

But is there a way to get the text msg puzzle piece unlock screen?

I remember w/ other roms, i can just drag the txt puzzle piece to do it all.

It's definitely not the ROM since it is working on mine. Bad flash? or maybe a reboot will do the trick.
[Vibrant Android Development] Thelgow:
How important/critical is it to odin before a flash?

So far my phones been good. Had it for a month now and ive done straight flashes from stock to Axura 3 or 4 versions, nero, axura, macnut, then a few more neros.

I was wondering if I should odin before the next nero.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
Not as important/critical as some might have you believe. Although it is a good method to ensure the cleanest install possible, most of the time it's not gonna hurt you to skip it. Usually formatting cache, system, and data in CWM before a flash does nearly the same thing. If you really have troubles, try using Odin. But if you have the same problems again chances are good either you're doing something wrong, or there's something wrong with your ROM. Odin is a great tool though, don't get me wrong, saved my ass a couple times. Just remember, it's supposed to be a factory restore tool to save your ass, not a pain in the ass tool. That's just my 2¢.
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
The music player works fine for me and I use it on the daily basis, perhaps you have a bad flash. Did you try to reboot? If it doesn't help maybe you can try to uninstall the music player via Titanium, then push the apk from the zip file see if it helps. If all else falls, do a reflash.

Same thing happened to me. Just get the Nero v1 .zip and extract the ThinkFree.apk from it. Or, someone else posted the full ThinkFree apk in this thread (but it's a different version from the Samsung Vibrant I believe). Search for it.
