[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaikat:
i really appreciate the help you guys are offering... thanks.

alright, i'll tell you what i did:

1- i wiped everything (data, cache, ext, dalvik)

2- flashed the rom (defrost 6.1a)

3- after everything was up and running i charged the phone to the point where clarus battery(battery info widget) showed the phone was charged, also current widget changed the reading from 44 to 8 mah at this point.

4- rebooted into recovery and wiped battery stats

after i used the phone for a while and the battery lost about 10% or more, current widget went back to showing 44mah, all the way to the moment my phone turned off by itself cause the battery was empty (this was almost 18 to 20 hours later)

i use setcpu, the cpu speed is set to 245-728 using the On-demand governor. and there's one profile set for when the phone is on standby(screen is off), that one is set to 245-530(approximate) using either the conservative or the On-demand governors.

another thing is autobrightness, which i have turned OFF.

and lastly, i don't use a taskkiller, and i advise anyone not to use one as i got better battery life without one...(anyone who reads this, try it and see for yourself)..

the amount of the mah current being used by my phone is whats bugging me, i'v read another topic where people who were using Desire phones and the current widget were getting 25-40 when using the phone, and 3-8 when the phone was idle. but in my case, the number is always the same...

too much talking i know, forgive me, but this is in case anyone who wants to help has other questions ...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rogermorse:
Hello. I'm just new in the android world, i have a desire hd with HTC sense.

Target: reading ebooks in italian (my language)

Application desired: the HTC built-in ebook reader, which stores .epub ebooks in local memory root\etc\file.epub

Through: i take a .epub file (an ebook i already own or i'm gonna buy, in italian) and put it in the same directory since the ebook reader doesn't allow to 'browse' and choose files.

Problem: whatever i try to copy and paste, doesn't paste!!! Even a normal .jpg taken from the SD card....when i go and 'paste' it in the root folder of the internal phone memory or in the root\etc, the file manager says 'cannot copy the file'.

It's like i am not allowed to manually write anything in the phone memory.

I have tried two different file managers (ASTRO and ES). Same thing. With ASTRO the 'option PASTE' is grayed out....with 'ES' i can click on 'paste' but then it says 'couldn't copy filexxx.jpg'.

Solution 1: I find another GOOD ebook reader (the HTC one already present in the desire HD is fantastic) which allows me to 'load' files from whatever location they are..... .lit and .epub compatible

Solution 2: if it works, i could just copy the ebooks i want to read in the root\etc so that the HTC ebook reader finds them....BUT for this, I have to be allowed to write the phone memory ------ HOW ?

thanks!!

I Take It Your Phones Not Rooted?

Basically To Do Anything At All, That Has To Do With The System You Need SU (Super-User) Access! In Other Words, You Need To Be Rooted..... Try Installing Z4Root!! Give That A Try, & You Should Hopefully Be Good, As Far As Being Allowed To Write To The System!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rogermorse:
I actually found a nice application (Laputa) to read ebooks. Only thing missing is the zoom through multi touch actions. The rest is ok...i imported my few ebooks and everything works!

I didn't need to write the internal memory, but what you said will sure come in handy once i need again to write the phone memory!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rogermorse:
hey. that application is not present in the marketplace.

My problem is now that i set a ringtone for incoming SMS (\storagecard\notifications\filexxx.wav), it is correctly read...but that like if i receive a sms one hour later, the default notification sound starts....instead of my custom wav file. Why ?

So i thought that maybe whenever i dis/mount the sd card (where the file is present), the settings go back to the default notification sound.

BUT that doesn't happen for the incoming call ringtone...which is also in the \storagecard\ringtone folder (.mp3)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rogermorse:
ok now that was weird....the 'notification' ringtone is only for emails. In fact, whenever i receive an email the correct file plays. But not for the sms.

To change the real sms notification sound, i just had to go in 'messages' and then from there - settings - choose sound.

Weird that it's separated from the normal phone ringtone settings panel.

so i guess it's solved.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexis77:
I put froyo on my vibrant using Odin. have JL5 (from samfirmware.com) and the 2.6.32.9 kernel now.

update.zip did not work to root, nor did that one click lage fix or other things work.

would like to use froyoblack and e.g. axura.

any ideas?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
none of the "easy" known root options work due to 2.2 having a newer recovery.

To root 2.2 firmwares, search google for SuperOneClick. This will root your device. The only problem is, with recent firmwares, there is literally not enough space to install root and install busy box, so you'll need to delete a few apps.

but, it doesn't hurt to try though.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMGRANDS:
Not Sure If You Tried It, Or If It'll Work? But Z4Root Worked Well For Me & A Few Others I Know!! Also Unrevoked Works Well, But Once Again I Have HTC, Not Samsung, So Don't Know If Either Will Work??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sarge363:
If I were u I would just Odin back to stock then root from there. Then install rom manager and flash one of the custom ROMs from Team Whiskey or Eugene373.

you just said exactly what i was going to.

This is probably the best idea.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
READ EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EXPERIMENTAL! This is not a support or bug reporting thread!

EXPERIMENTAL! This is not a support or bug reporting thread!

Fixes and Extras:

- Dual Boot Support

- Added Swype

- Added sqlite3

- Added 3 Button Fix

- Added Ad Blocking

- Fixed the build.prop fingerprint so you can see all apps in the market

- Fixed root not working

- Fixed Busybox symlinks

Known Issues:

- GPS broken

- Home is back, back is home

- Camera

- Only mounts internal sdcard

- Data works, however it takes 2-5 minutes to connect after boot. Works fine after.

Important Things To Know:

1. This rom duel boots and operates off /data. You cannot boot into clockwork recovery. SO, in order to return to your previously installed rom, all you must do is reboot into download mode and flash your previous kernel. I will provide a link where you kind find a list of current 2.2 kernels in a .tar format so you can flash using odin via download mode.

2. On boot, you will see a white fuzzy screen for about 3 seconds, it will not effect anything so don't panic.

3. YOU MUST currently have voodoo enabled before flashing this rom!!!!!!! I suggest just download and flashing our stable 2.2 rom, nero v3 and enabling voodoo, then flash this.

4. Yes, this is ACTUALLY Gingerbread, not a clone.

Installation:

- Install like you would any other rom via clockwork recovery. BUT LIKE I SAID, if you want to return to your previously installed rom, all you must do is reboot into download mode and flash your previous kernel.

Download:

Gingerbread For Vibrant build 1

I would like to try this, since it's a release from TW, but I'm just wondering exactly how stable is this release.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
As stated in very large red letters at the top, this is EXPERIMENTAL.
[Vibrant Android Development] creator2456:
EXPERIMENTAL!!!!

Don't cry when you break something or when something doesn't work. This is a proof of concept release (IMO) AND WILL get better. Let people that know what they are doing play with this.
[Vibrant Android Development] mmarshall:
Great Work!

I was really surprised by just how fast this was, great job to everyone working on this! The CRT screen off feature is absolutely sick, the grainy youtube videos really don't do it justice!
[Vibrant Android Development] manjish:
ok now i have problem getting to download mode using either terminal emulator or the adb as now my phone dont get recognized by the pc........any suggestions masters??

edit:

got it back to nero v3 where i left it hehe...... i got to download mode by hardware key combos....terminal emulator and adb didnt worked in my case.....so those without hardware keys working dont try it........anyways my vibrant got to taste the gingerbread

@sombionix

do we have to delete anything on the phone after reflashing 2.2 kernel?? is it the folder named gingerbread inside the data partition? Im getting kernel panics after reverting to nero ...any thoughts??

Edit2....kernel pAnic dissapeared after couple of reboots
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Sombionix, install.sh calls for sbl.bin in updates, but there isn't one there. Am I missing something?
[Vibrant Android Development] Duce HD2:
I just replaced my device, so I'll probably wait a few days.....

TW - Thanks for making this a reality!
[Vibrant Android Development] nranson:
I flashed earlier this morning and everything was safe. The only thing I saw was that sometimes I'd get hard resets (all the way back to the "Vibrant" screen). It would then come back up and I'd have to wait a couple of minutes before the data would come back. Again, as Som pointed out, it's not really a fully-functional thing at this point. It's completely safe to do, though, so long as you're familiar with Odin.

When you get sick of it, pull the battery and then put it back in. Hold both volume up and down and plug in the USB cord and BAM! You should be back in download mode to flash the kernel back to how it was before. I used the JL5 Voodoo modem.
[Vibrant Android Development] d2theyip:
Cool Demo, data worked right away for me. I had hard resets just like other posts have said, and will wait until the stable version. Thanks somb.
[Vibrant Android Development] manjish:
Ok did you guys got kernel panics after returning to 2.2 rom....i have got 4 th panic about 5 mins ago too...
[Vibrant Android Development] diazf09:
So after we flash a 2.2 kernel thru odin we can flash another rom thru clockwork?
[Vibrant Android Development] thanharts:
Please post Quadrant results of this ROM!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] nranson:
Yep. After you flash your kernel though Odin, you're back to normal. Flash away.

Edit: The only thing us that you'll want to disable Voodoo before flashing a new rom, just in case.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
Once you flash a kernel via Odin your phone will reboot automatically back to your previously installed rom. No other flashing is required, although you can if you want.

Also, you don't have to disable voodoo if you are flashing another rom that has a voodoo kernel included. However, you must disable voodoo if you are flashing a rom with anon voodoo kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] sombionix:
No, you don't want to flash an sbl file. I forgot to remove that file. It won't effect anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] nranson:
Thanks for clarifying. Haha. You put it much better than I.

Thanks for doing what you do, Som.

oh look at Krylon's signature..... oh man im so excited thanks you so much for your hard work its people like you that make me love my vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] r0man:
"4G" does not exist. The Vibrant can and has been accessing T-Mobile's HSPA network since its release, this is not what T-Mobile believes is 4G, however, which is HSPA+. The Vibrant's radio is not capable of connecting to HSPA+.

Its just a concept name for now. Still a lot of bugs to work out before i make a beta.

"The NinjaBread Man"

Now you shall hear a story that some old tech journalist told a little Samsung Galaxy Vibrant owner ever so many years ago:

There was once a little old company called Tmobile and a little old company called Samsung, who lived in a little old house in the edge of a woods. They would have been a very happy old couple but for one thing -- they had no successful products in the market.

So one day, Samsung baked an Android phone, and released it with T-Mobile.

She cut a cake in the shape of a an eclair, and put it into the oven.

But the magic fairy godmother named Krylon granted the eclair's wish and turned it into a gingerbread ninja.

When the samsung went to the oven to see if it was baked. As soon as the oven door was opened, the little Ninjabread man jumped out, and began to run away as fast as he could go.

Samsung called Tmobile, and they both ran after him. Wondering how this could be since they had both delayed the updates.

But they could not catch him. And soon the Ninjabread man came to a barn full of forum fanboys. He called out to them as he went by, saying:

I've run away from a little old samsung,

A little old Tmobile,

And I can run away from you, I can!

long story short

Run, run, as fast as you can

You can't catch me, I'm the Ninnjabread man

I'm the ninja bread man and I'm out of the pan!

Since the vibrant source kernel has not been opensourced, i assume this will be the modded Nexus S kernel ? if you plan to add voodoo sound ?

Personally, I'd rather see a "plain" Nexus-S style, totally generic, 100% "Google Experience" first, then add all the extra goodies later (Voodoo sound, OC, themes, etc)

Once again, Thanks Krylon, your work is appreciated by all :)
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
I'll always do my best to keep you guys updated. I'll be working on it some more tonight when I get home from work. (Wish I had a damn netbook so I could work on it at work. LOL)

Next goal is to get the headset speaker and wifi working. Once I do that, then I'll work on GPS and Auto-Rotation. Then the build will be usable.

Sorry it's taking so long to get a stable build. Just a lot of stuff I want to see fixed before I release it.
