[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
It's mostly 1.3.2 with some framework stuff from 1.2.1 and Tard 2.1 rom.... a few things from Project V... tweaks and apk's

Maybe... I'll... maybe... just don't know if I want go down that road

"Overstock kernel to 1.3ghz" There was a few beta test ver around that did... I believe there was a test, not released, ver of Bullet that went up to 1.48GHz
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
Go to the dark side .
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Maybe.... LOL
[Vibrant Android Development] subzerold:
still the best rom sadly...
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
Okay So I've seen the Bionix NextGen v2.

Other than themed differently, is it better than Bionix 1.3.1?
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
No but people are religious about it so there is not much point trying to convince them ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
IMO... no, both NextGen roms are really good but neither are as smooth as 1.3.1.

1.3.2 is a hair less smooth then 1.3.1 but with better batt life and much better GPS. With 1.3.2, some tweaks and Bali 1.8.8uv... with Mod use I got 2 1/2 days
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
1.3.1 FTW BABY. Lol yes i'm still using 1.3.1 after all these months. Tried some other roms but for solid performance 131 is the way to go
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
I've been playing lately, currently running Kana with Brick'd's Vanilla AOSP theme over it, Bali 1.2ghz the EDT tweaks and the latest zipalign script from Thunderbolt... greased freaking lightning and stellar battery!
[Vibrant Android Development] gunked:
13 hours and still 52% left. Uh yes Next Gen 2 is the bomb.
[Vibrant Android Development] markinct:
I keep coming back to TeamWhiskey ROMs. I've been on MIUI, CM, and several others, but I keep coming back for the stability and smooth operation.

I flashed back today as a security blanket... I had a really hard (and scary) time flashing back to stock after playing with an Ice Cream Sandwich Alpha build.
[Vibrant Android Development] vahustla4lyfe:
is nexgen v2 called bionix 1.3.2
[Vibrant Android Development] mohamobo:
+1

legend
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesey10:
i tried miui for a while. it's fun at first, but unstable after a while. just like my last girlfriend.

I'm back to my first love, bionix.
[Vibrant Android Development] thachosenone:
You know, i loved bionix when i was on froyo, but since i took the gb plunge with simply honey, i never looked back. People seem to come back after cm7 or miui. Try a Samsung gb ROM before making the "instability" call
[Vibrant Android Development] mike21pr:
I moved on to CM7. MIUI is pretty but buggy imo. After undervolting, battery is same if not better than froyo.

But the things i miss from bionix:

a) Being able to play Dead Space (Crashes on GB)

b) No other launcher except touchwiz can still have a perfectly smooth app drawer even when using a heavy live wallpaper

c) Reliable GPS
[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
Yeah, man.. I hear you.

I have a folder on my desktop called 'ROM Backup' with my tweaked version of Bionix 1.3.1/1.2.1 and a theme, AOSP apps, etc. I go back to it from time to time. For now, I'm on CM7, but I usually go back to this ROM, they did an awesome job with it.
[Vibrant Android Development] ThC23:
After all these months Bionix v1.3.1 is still on top. Doesn't surprise me, best Vibrant rom IMO.

Just thought I would check this place out, the Vibrant was my first Android phone where I learned to root and flash and Team Whiskey made that experience that much pleasant/great.

Powered by the SGSII....
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
No. NextGen v2 is a Team Whiskey ROM but not managed by Sombionix, unlike 1.3.2.
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
This ROM will reign on my Vibrant until contract ends. Zero issues and truly versatile (compared to other ROM's intolerance) regarding mods of any type. Indeed it has stand the test of time in every front and I'd say it is the Vibrant's standard already by its unique popularity.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.haqeem:
you make me remind of my first luv...VIBRANT..ionnn. dang! XD

indeed..the best ROM and lasting ;)

Poered by the SGSII
[Vibrant Android Development] gunked:
OMG Bionix on 2.3.7? ;)

Just playing here is the reality.
[Vibrant Android Development] davidbauer:
Please tell me what customization you did so i can replicate it ty:-)
[Vibrant Android Development] wingman25:
I tried cm7 & miui for the past couple of months but eventually came back to bionix. Wondering if anyone has tried team toxics 9rc2 rom and how it compared to bionix?
[Vibrant Android Development] Leafy_duk:
Its way faster, couple kinks need to be worked out. Have to use cpu master and not the cpu controller that comes with it. I got a 2000+ quadrant with it. Havent done a battery test yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] clocinnorcal:
I always come back to bionix as well. The other day I downloaded d9 and it seemed pretty snappy, although I only played with it for a day then flashed neobuddys ICS rom! Now that is an impressive rom! GPS seems to not be functioning 100% as well as the auto rotation, but other than that its super nice rom! I am anxious to see how quick a non beta release will be out.
[Vibrant Android Development] drunkboi:
No sound after re-flashing rom?

My friend has this rom on his Vibrant. He wanted to start from scratch on the rom so he re-flashed it from clockwork. Now when making/receiving calls he has no sound? How can he resolve this issue & how to go about it? I assume he needs to some sort of wipe but what & how? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
He needs to Odin (wipes and resets the phone back to stock/new) then flash again.

use pit file ####512 and T959UVJFD.tar

You will need the Samsung Windows drivers also LINK
[Vibrant Android Development] drunkboi:
He needs to use Odin even though he just flashed over the same rom? There is no way to just clear the data/cache/dalvik within recovery then re-flash 1.3.1?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Sounds like he didn't "wipe/reset to factory" before flashing so he's got some of the old and new rom or could be a bad flash ... either or if he just flashed again, better just to Odin back to stock and start with a clean base instead of fusing to fix something that is broken.

EDIT: Here's the "update.zip" for CWM recovery... put it on he's internal SD.

After Odin'ing back to stock, boot into stock recovery. "reinstall update" (I think that's it) 2x... it's will reboot you back into stock recovery after the 1st time... do it again.

In CWM recovery (Green Ver) "Wipe Date/factory reset" 2x, then Wipe cache partition and under "advanced" Wipe Dalvik Cache.

Now flash away

EDIT2: or yes, you could just... In CWM recovery (Red Ver) "Wipe Date/factory reset" 2x, then Wipe cache partition and under "advanced" Wipe Dalvik Cache... Now flash away
[Vibrant Android Development] nathan.tran:
Moving to ICS ?

I am on Bionix v1.3.1 for a while now. Pretty much satisfied with it. Didn't bother to try other ROMs for my vibrant.

But with the coming ICS, I am tempted to give Android 4.0 a try. Has anyone tried and what's your verdict ?

Nathan
[Vibrant Android Development] lwdjdmr:
NeoBuddys ICS is aweeeesome, it does have a few issues but remember it is in BETA still!
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
The 2000+ quad scores have little to do with 9rc2, it's the 1.2ghz bali kernel that does the work.

Flash the Bali kernel on bionix and watch it fly!
[Vibrant Android Development] draychi:
Yea, Bionix with Bali is just pure beast. Still the smoothest ROM to date, period. This phone has seen over 150 flashes lol.

The only issue I've ever had with TW ROMs is no voicemail notifications after the first day or two. Have to install visual voicemail to get it to work.
[Vibrant Android Development] xavyi:
over a million views. this rom still has the best battery life of them all!
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesey10:
no kidding. last night I was at my girl's place without a charger. My battery was at 10% when I went to bed at 11:00pm. i confidently knew I could trust my alarm on my phone to wake me up 8 hours later. Sure enough when the alarm went off and I woke up, battery was only down to 6%. I've tried so many, just to see if they compare to Bionix. No other ROM comes close to that.
[Vibrant Android Development] DataGov:
I loved Bionix 1.3.1 and used it since March. But I flashed ICS Passion v5 last week and it is much faster than Bionix, the setup interface is streamlined and elegant, and the battery life is at least 50% better with wifi on all day at home.

Some things in ICS still need work, like the data reception feels a little weaker, GPS doesn't work, video recording is out, and there are some issues regarding /data/data storage usage.

But it is faster, cleaner, and the battery is better.
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
I thought you bought another phone and was no longer on the Vibrant. Haven't seen a post from you in forever. I flashed Simply Honey a long time ago and haven't looked back. I'm on SH Gingy JVT and am watching ICS with interest. Good to see you're still here.
[Vibrant Android Development] sjohnjuan:
where did you find the Bali Kernel at?
[Vibrant Android Development] draychi:
In the Bali thread... should only be a few pages deep if that. I'm running the 1.8.8, OCd to 1.2 and UVd up through 1 ghz.
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
(Rom) +(kernel)= awesomeness! !

Blah blah blah
[Vibrant Android Development] sjohnjuan:
Thanks cause I didn't have a clue as to which version to install.
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
The first rom I flashed on my phone! This rom is the best of all others with all kinda stuff! Battery life just rocks in here. Its amazingly smooth! Love it! Thanks for it guys!
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
I disagree on the battery portion. It's been a while since I've been on Bionix, but it's hands down THE best 2.2 ROM out there and one of the best overall. I can go nearly 3 days on Bionix with Edge, I'm lucky to squeeze 10 hours out of ICS Passion on Edge. Shoot, looks like I'll get about 6.5 hours out of my current charge on 3G (which is perfectly fine for where it is in development).

Nothing touches Bionix. As soon as I can get my hands on a Verizon GN, my Vibrant is getting a delicious fresh flash of Bionix 1.3.1 w/ TW and it's going to my mother.

This ROM is a Vibrant legacy!
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
Nice to see you in here too!

Still on The vibrant, I've got about all the themeing resources I need on my computer already and with the 2.2 development winding down to small script improvements there is not much to visit here for at the moment! Currently I'm running a OldeCrow flavored installation of Kana, simple, aosp... Like my signature says.... That 9rc2 rom has me itching for a good Orange theme again though so I might have to revisit "freshly squezed" over a clean KB5!

Been thinking about the new sgs2 but it's really overpriced for what amounts to a better quadrant scoremaker... guess I'm getting old, new toys have to actually do something new or better before I get interested :D
[Vibrant Android Development] lwdjdmr:
SO i flashed this ROM a week ago and i love it & im running it without the touchwiz!

Just a couple of things though...

1) I seen that the Display is taking up 90% of my battery usage so my battery drains a bit quick. any suggestions on that?

and

2) whenever i get on an application that uses the internet, it seems to lose all data. Everything works great if i am connected WIfi but i lose all signal and 3g. Anything on that?
[Vibrant Android Development] bigragu:
I've tried tons of ROMs but always come back to this one because I know just flat out that everything works. I have to laugh when someone says that another ROM is superior in some way and then add except that "this, this, this, and this don't work". Then it's not superior - this ROM has it all. The sad part is that TW walked away from it. I can only imagine what it would be today.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Walked away is not so true... more like real world stuff happened.

From Team Whiskey Facebook page...
[Vibrant Android Development] gunked:
Cool
[Vibrant Android Development] bigragu:
Rest assured, I mean no disrespect. I hope that is obvious.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Yes it was... just trying to make thing a little more clear.

9 vibrants in our company!

9 are on Bionix!

1 Galaxy S II on Juggernaut and loving it! But still hoping for some Team Whiskey Love! :D
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
Little hint that might help some: When/If your Bluetooth gets grumpy and doesn't want to turn on (it loops), reboot the device, and when booting (it's still scanning for files), be fast and turn it on, don't wait until the device finishes booting/scanning. Kinda weird workaround that worked for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sincitybronze:
Hi guys, back to bionix after many months of trying to make gb roms, cm7, and ics passion work for me. Lots of nice options but it's a relief to come back to a sure bet with great battery life. A few questions:

Notifications don't seem to fit the theme. I get that ugly touchwiz notification. Is there a flash to fix this?

Any benefit to using the kb5 modem?

Facebook pictures don't show up for my contacts. Any fix for this?

How do I turn the lock screen off? Do I need an app like no lock or is there a setting to turn it off?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Notifications don't seem to fit the theme. I get that ugly touchwiz notification. Is there a flash to fix this? - Maybe look in the Vibrant theme section. - LINK

Any benefit to using the kb5 modem? - Most seem to get better battery life

Facebook pictures don't show up for my contacts. Any fix for this? - Works fine for me, try uninstalling and reinstalling

How do I turn the lock screen off? Do I need an app like no lock or is there a setting to turn it off? - You can't in the rom, so yes to an app that does it for you
[Vibrant Android Development] Sincitybronze:
Fishman you are awesome
[Vibrant Android Development] Tynen:
I'm re-flashing back to good old reliable Bionix-v 1.3.1. I heard that 911 doesn't work with any of the 2.3 or 4.0 roms for the Vibrant that aren't ported from i9000. Also I'm sick of crappy battery life and spotty GPS.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
how do you change timezone it's all greyed out?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
uncheck automatic
[Vibrant Android Development] terencec:
well everyone... looks like I'm leaving the Vibrant scene and moving onto the Galaxy Nexus.

Bionix-V has been on my phone this ENTIRE TIME.

thanks for the great work teamwhiskey!

I've unchecked that but it's still greyed out. I had to use clocksync upp just to save time..

hmmm.. anoyone?
[Vibrant Android Development] dullknives:
something i've noticed recently that i don't recall happening before : whenever i'm on a call, any and all notification sounds come through the earpiece. if i get a txt, the entire text is read to me, etc. i thought there was a setting to turn off these type of notifications while on a call but i can't find it anywhere.

any help/ideas?
[Vibrant Android Development] Mattymat:
easy fix my friend. Go into settings, then into "voice input and output"...once in there you will go into "text to speech settings"....while in there you should uncheck "driving mode".

Should solve the problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] dullknives:
driving mode is unchecked. I had checked there before and forgot to mention it.
[Vibrant Android Development] kewlkid123:
oh boy the memories on TW's ROMs :') They make such solid ROMs that hardly have any hiccups and when they do, their is always a fix. Too bad about them not cooking for the vibrant, but I understand.

I suggest the Galaxy Nexus, but that's just me because I'm gonna get it ;)

Bionix v1.3.1 w/GingerRed theme
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Just wondering, why is it that whenever i try to click the manage rom through the ROM manager, it says that CWM still needs to be flashed. As far as I know, I've used the update.zip that will flash clockwork recovery directly to make it intact with the phone. Why is that so?.. hmm..
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
This ROM uses a modified version of CWM (a red one compatible with Voodoo), that's why.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
?? red one compatible with Voodoo is part of Voodoo Kernel's and has nothing to do with Rom Manager.

When flashing a new rom, sometimes rom manager doesn't see CWM recovery installed (GREEN VER) so it asks of you to install it... won't hurt anything, just goona install the zip to you internal SD and re flash green recovery. You phone will revert back to Red Recovery because it's build into your voodoo kernel... may load into Green recovery if you go thru Rom Manager.
[Vibrant Android Development] dbknottyboy:
Wow.. I tried every ROM here on xda since 2010. And after all the addiction of flashing and trying, including trial and error, coming from ICS, MIUI etc, I confess that this is still by far the smoothest and stable ROM ever. Just wow.....

Amazing Job Som and the team! I know you guys haven't posted any new updates and what-not but just wanting u to know that your ROM still rocks!!

Happy Holidays anyhow :)
[Vibrant Android Development] samdroid959:
Does anyone know what is the best kernel for this rom as far gps is concerned? I tried searching this thread and can't come up with a definite answer, thanks in advance
[Vibrant Android Development] |Logic|:
For me it has always been Bali-X
[Vibrant Android Development] kobesabi:
I'm using latest Overstock with it
[Vibrant Android Development] samdroid959:
Thanks I'm new to this rom never flashed froyo before. Coming from GB (SH, MIUI, CM7) & ICS but heard nothing but great things about Bionix and wanted to see what it is all about. Man it's like coming back home!! Especially with touchwiz!! This is one of the most stablest roms out there and the battery life is insane I'm going on 12 hours with 65% (medium use with JD) Well the reason I asked about the best kernel regarding gps was because I just did the gps hardware fix and wanted to try it on a rom that was fully functional. I got a lock in less than 10 seconds!! (coming a vibrant prior to oct. which was the ****tiest batch ever). By the way I'm running on the lastest overstock with kb5 modem.

So I would like to thank the whole entire WHISKEY TEAM!! This is one of the most awsomest, stablest, smoothest, ROM's I ever used!! Great work!!
[Vibrant Android Development] bucket19:
I have recently come back to Bionix from CM7.

I have enabled call status tones to have a call connect tone as well as a call end tone. Either time one of these tones are supposed to sound com.android.phone force closes. I've used Root Explorer to try a couple Phone.apk files on my phone but they cause even more problems.

Any way to fix the tones? A good apk which will make it work?
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
You might have to ODIN again and/or redownload Bionix and reflash.

Sent from my GT-P7310
[Vibrant Android Development] bucket19:
I don't think that is the problem. I had this issue back in the Spring on several Team Whiskey ROMs. No other ROM has ever given me this problem.

I have used Odin and reflashed several different ROMs in the past week and every time I come back to Bionix the tones cause force closes.
[Vibrant Android Development] phenom69:
Im using tigers blood v3.22 kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
Tough luck you have then. Bionix-v 1.3.1 has never caused me FCs with those tones I've used daily. Same is the case for 7 different Vibrants I installed it to (haven't heard issues from them ever). Me and those 7 people are using Bali-X (for reference) as the kernel. Something must be wrong over there. I hope you find what is causing the issue soon.
[Vibrant Android Development] mik0bil0g:
Came into the thread looking for more posts to convince me to get on Bionix (coming from MIUI) and I'm sold. Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] bucket19:
I flashed 4 different kernels today and had force closes on every one. I just realized that I've always flashed a Splash of Color theme. Possibly that is causing the problem. I'll have to wipe and reflash Bionix and make some calls without the theme.
[Vibrant Android Development] mik0bil0g:
Is there any way I can install or enable the feature from MIUI/CM7 to kill an app instantly by holding down the back button? Is that possible on a froyo ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] jtj2318:
Can I flash this ove my ics rom? its been a log time since I had bionix but I cant remember if I need to go stock first or can I just flash?
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Odin or Heimdall back to stock first... with ICS your partitions get changed... the only way to correct that is Odin or Heimdall back to stock
[Vibrant Android Development] jtj2318:
thanks by any chance do you have the link for stock vibrant files to flash from odin?

Found it nevermind.
[Vibrant Android Development] bucket19:
I flashed Bionix and didn't flash the theme. Now the tones work....pretty crazy. I never thought that a theme would be causing the force closes.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Why, yes I do... here ya go... LINK
[Vibrant Android Development] ColorNapkin:
No there's not. That's a feature built into CM builds. Your best bet will be to hold the Home button, open the task manager, and end the task that is frozen.

I wanted to know which Kernel is the best in terms of battery life need to have this baby run all day!

If you have the GB bootloaders only use the reflash from that thread or else you can perma brick the phone.

Anyone running Bionix Nextgen v2? I tried to flash 1.3.1 and it failed for some reason, so I flashed Nextgen. Had used it briefly before, but now am going to stick with it a few weeks to see. I'm tired of the problems with various GBs and ICSes. A good ole Froyo should be nice. Fast GPS too.
[Vibrant Android Development] ColorNapkin:
Honestly, give the kernel that comes in the ROM a try. I heard about Bali Extreme Battery or something like that and intended to try it but the ROM runs so well right out of the box that I haven't found a need for it. It's night and day coming from MIUI like I did.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Nope. will Odin fine with the GB Bootloader... just will say i9000 instead of Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] bucket19:
Turns out the Splash of Color zip has a Phone.apk in it which is flashes. Whatever is in that file causes the force closes. I ended up deleting the Phone.apk from the zip. Then I flashed Bionix and then the theme. Everything finally works.
[Vibrant Android Development] ColorNapkin:
Thanks for sharing the info. Just for the record, what ROM version were you flashing?
[Vibrant Android Development] Sincitybronze:
Has anyone found a way to prevent automatic update of date and time? If I de-select this option, it becomes selected again after a reboot.
