Anyone having trouble with MMS? I am sending pics to a friend on Verizon, she says she doesnt get my pics. My friend on Tmobile can see them just fine.

Hey Som, what is the correct way to recondition your battery? I've searched around on the forms and found several ways and I just want to make sure I am doing it correctly. Lately I seem to be getting poor battery life and I followed installation instructions to the T so I'm assuming I need to wipe the battery stats. Any help would be great, thanks!

Thanks, I cleared data and cache and rebooted and that totally f'd up the mail app. Although notification sound at least worked! But I had no folders other than inbox and no messages would load at all. If you could tell me which one you loaded that would be great.

Can also confirm the above, I am having the same identical issue.

Music

I'm having a small issue with the Music Player, it would randomly pause on its own. Which happens a lot. I've rebooted, re-flashed... and it continues to Randomly Pause. I've installed the MIUI Music Player which doesn't pause.

Any fixes? If not I'll just stick with MIUI Music Player, but i miss the notification pull down. :/

my 720p recording is not working how can i fix it? im on nero v5
[Vibrant Android Development] mr2noshoes:
Thanks again, TW!

I'm very happy with this ROM. I previously flashed v3, and v4. I always Odin back to stock between ROMs. I do not Titanium backup over apps that come with the ROM.

I have a small problem, and I looked about 10 pages back. No solutions found. :(

GPS works better than ever. I lock on birds FAST, but I'm having trouble in the navigation feature of Google maps. Once I go from the regular maps feature to the turn by turn based navigation app, it does the usual "searching for GPS" thing, and sits there for a good 10+ minutes.

I can locate myself within 10 meters in the maps area. No luck once in Navigation.

Do I need to use an older version of maps, one in which it doesn't "hang" in the "searching for gps" mode when using navigation?

Edit:

I did. :(

Perhaps it is late and I missed a good bit, or you have your page viewing set to display more posts per page.

[Vibrant Android Development] Adapt0r:
For shooting video @1280x720 you should try:

1. Terminate all running widgets and apps to eliminate possible interrupts.

2. Set storage to internal because it is faster.

In my experience this works just fine. Vibrant has processing power on the edge of requiements for HD recording and any call/interruption breaks continuity.

Hope this helps

New To ROMs

I rooted my vibrant but have been hesitant to put a custom ROM over because I've never dont it and the roms called for tradeoffs before. I know it's super noobish but I would appreciate if anyone could give me the step by step assuming i dont have anything done to my vibrant except the basic root.

Thanks...

Nero 5 a heart breaker to many gliches and i love the Nero series.
[Vibrant Android Development] cmenard:
Walter,

Did you start with a clean install? I've been running this on my phone as well as my fiance's Vibrant without any real issues. Maybe start over with a clean Odin back to stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Tradeoffs? Sticking with stock will give you more negative tradeoffs then running Nero 5.

Nero5 is smooth as a baby's ass.

Such a sweet rom!

Keep up the good work and hopefully we can see further improvements in a solid 1.2 kernel included in the future.

The only thing I would wonder if possible that could change.

Is there any way to activate SWYPE for the lock screen keyboard for passwords?

Hey som... I put android on my girlfriends hd2... And she has this really cool feature that when you turn the screen off it looks like an old tv turning off... I was wondering if you could incorporate that into your next rom... Thanks I love all your work
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Sorry to say but the people who are having issues with this ROM obviously are doing something wrong. We are dealing with the same hardware. I can understand if this were PCs, where each person has slightly different hardware.

Follow the install instructions...

Keep up the good work TW.

BTW, my battery life has been the best so far with this ROM, average about 10-11 hours vs 8 hours before. These are realistic numbers unlike people who claim 20+ hours.
[Vibrant Android Development] secretseven:
i've used TB to restore 1 app out of the 5 roms i've flashed, angry birds, i guess i know where my priorities are lol, but in all seriousness i do agree that this is why people are having so many issues. i think some people don't realize that these are computers in your pockets, these things move data around just like a computer would, if you were to reinstall an operating system and try restoring data you would encounter all sorts of similar issues.

just bite your tongues and just reflash, don't restore any of your BS, and if you really really need this info ie emails or something, find another way to back it up, we all have computers, transfer stuff, reinstall the apps, its not that hard. every time i flash i have to reinstall the apps i want, but atleast i know i'm not going to have any problems with them.

just so if anyone has any questions, i came from v3, flashed over top with v4, then v4.1, now v5, i never used TB to restore anything except angry birds lol, i used SGS Tools every time to get the galaxy tab email. i use touchwiz with jdan's SBG 2.4, and just recently i wanted to try some of these kernels people were talking about, i didn't try the DoW 1.4 (i feel i'd rather have a 1.2) so i'm currently using 2.8 Dragon. my gps works and locks quick, i can record in 1280x720 just fine, no problem sending and receiving MMS or any other messages. i can't remember all the complaints people were having but i haven't noticed any issues for what i use my phone for.

keep in mind that its STILL a phone, its almost as if some of these people are like, i want my phone to do all this sweet **** but i don't care if it can make a phone call, and others i understand your just trying to help the dev's out with issues (if they truely are issues)

/rant

*edit* and yes, follow the instructions, let your phone sit after a flash, let it soak up whats going on, don't screw with it, reboot it, let it sit again, reboot. and just like a computer you have to reboot your system from time to time especially after making serious changes *edit*

[Vibrant Android Development] knightofdespair:
Amazing

Been running this version since it was released, only issue I have come across is the email not updating - works fine if I manually start the app but won't ever update on it's own no matter the time settings.

Plan on donating next payday, this is a solid ROM and much better than stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] rlhobt:
I just wanted to clarify a small point about this...with GPS, it doesn't matter which direction you are facing, like it does with satellite TV or radio. The GPS satellites are always moving, and you'll get the best signal if several of them happen to be overhead (or nearly so) rather than near the horizon when you are trying to get a fix.

Also when I use the android unlock screen I can just pres the menu button and it bypasses the lock screen it there a fix for this.

[Vibrant Android Development] ohnoezmahfone:
I tried Odin-ing back to stock and reflashing Nero 5, but still had many issues with the Touchwiz messaging and battery drain. I've gone back to Nero 4.1

Edit: the bug that wakes the screen and prevents the phone from sleeping when you get an sms is also present in Nero 4! Crapmonsters! Attached is the Mms.apk from Nero 3, which is the AOSP version. I was able to install it via adb and it works great. It's a system app, so you won't be able to just copy it to your SD or whatever.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
Ok, silly little item.

I like the Daily Briefing widget. I know, I know, I'm probably the only one who does. I have issues.

Anyway, using v5 with TW, the app and widget work without any issues. I decided to flash the non-TW version last night. The app and shortcut are still there, but no widget. Bad flash or am I missing a file? Thanks in advance for any info.
[Vibrant Android Development] Wade-0:
So I've been running V5 since it was released (non-touchwiz) and I'm having a lot of issues with the radio on this release. My wifi takes forever to reconnect after waking the phone up, and my 3G throughput is abysmal (worse than Edge) and sometimes just freezes completely.

Email app never updates IMAP and Pop3 on mine as well. Auto-checking/updating or pushing email works only when you set your email as excahnge. Good thing you can even set your gmail as exchange.
[Vibrant Android Development] dbrummet:
I also have this same issue, the lock sound works, but no UNLOCK sound. Hmm...:confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] m509272:
More good advice and accurate observation.

People just have no concept of how to debug anything. Load Nero 5 in which ever way you want and DO NOT restore anything. Try it as is. If something isn't working, reflash to stock and then load Nero 5. Again, DO NOT restore anything. If your problem still exists at that point report it.

If you then restore stuff via Titanium Backup and then get a problem guess what, it's not the ROM. It's something you did after the install. As Som has repeatedly said DO NOT restore System apps or data. Now go back to stock then reload Nero 5. Load up a few apps and see if your problem has come back. If not those are ok, do some more until you get your problem back. Now you've isolated it to a group. Obviously 1 by 1 would take longer but that's your call.

If someone could let me know how to set up a POP3 account in my gmail app, that would be great as I am only seeing an option to add another gmail account.

I would just like to get an audible notification when my work email arrives and that's all. I understand that I may just be too dumb to figure out how to fix it on my own even after at least 6 Odin's to stock and reflash in case I got a bad flash, re dl'd the ROM 3 times to make sure it wasn't corrupt on my PC, and after flashing and waiting the prescribed 15 mins and reboot, only reloaded my google account and work email settings manually - no apps / data/ nothing and still...no audible notification, even though i double checked the settings and tried every preinstalled notification on the device...but hey, I get it. I broke it. If I can workaround it with gmail (it works just fine) that would be great so i didn't have to dl and get comfortable with a new email app.

Download the new email apk here --------------------> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10705955&postcount=2561

Here is how to push the apk with root explorer:

1. Open root explorer and go to system/app, long press the Email.apk and choose 'copy'.

2. Paste the original email.apk in a folder in the sd card for safe keeping.

3. Go to setting/applications/manage applications

4. Choose the email app and delete data and cache

5. Open root explorer and go to system/app and long press the Email.apk and choose 'delete'

6. Reboot

7. Download OldeCrow's apk and place on the sd card in a DIFFERENT folder than the email apk you just saved.

8. Open root explorer, long press on OldeCrow's Email apk and choose 'copy'

9. Go to system/app and paste the apk there.

10. Long press the new Email.apk and choose 'permissions' change them to 'rw-r--r--'

11. Reboot

12. Set up your email account.

You will now have email notifications working!
