I don't know why it's happening either. I came from Bionix 1.2 and never had any problems at all and I flashed this yesterday and everything went fine until I wanted to try out the Rotary Unlock Screen, and everything went haywire. Hopefully it won't happen again to me. I'll keep you guy's posted.
[Vibrant Android Development] bigtom624:
Actually did have the Accurate Battery and 5 bar full green indicator bar flashed on my phone. That would make a little more sense then. Thanks for the heads up.

Nice rom clean install fast... I was a hardcore windows mobile user for the longest time just made the switch to android got the courage to flash so plz forgive me if I ask the noobyest of questions as for voodoo lag fix wat is the purpose I see no change
[Vibrant Android Development] Bl4ckpheniX:
Any update on the progress with Frost? I know we just got 1.2.1, just curious.

BTW. Noticed an issue with data sometimes not wanting to connect, I have re-flashed the ROM and it doesn't fix the issue. It happens about once a day and the only thing that seems to fix the issue is a wipe of the Dalvik. But it comes back.

Anyone else having these issues?

I followed the install directions to a "T" just like always. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Bl4ckpheniX:
Voodoo re-compiles the data of the operating system to a more advanced style that is more stable and much more efficient which makes the operating system run faster and more smoothly.

I also had that prob. i uninstalled an app then went to market and dled again then the rest showed up.
[Vibrant Android Development] bradycl_84043:
Be very careful comparing battery usage.

I pay attention to *processes* for improving battery life, and do all I *can* to do so. But I am never going to get more than 12, *maybe* 14 hours out of a charge. That's because *my* moderate use is way different from yours. I'm not willing to sacrifice the fairly battery-hungry lwp that I use, I use Latitude frequently, even though I can freeze a lot of things and use Juice Defender... I'm you might have a completely different use case.

Frankly I would love to see an accepted battery comparison protocol for comparison between ROMs. This wouldn't tell you what number of hours *you* can expect to get from your own level of use, but it would tell you that this ROM with this kernel is, under identical usage, more or less (and about how much more or less) effecient than another.

This would require battery of about the same health to be used for each test, conditioned the same way in preparation for the test, the exact same applications, if any, installed over the ROM for the test, same device background be used, and the exact same device usage (or none) while the battery is drained.

I don't know if that would even be feasable, or something that anyone would be willing to do, but it would be the only way for a public comparison of battery life from ROM to ROM, kernel to kernel, etc, to have *any* meaning at all.

Another thing I thought was really neat was how detailed the notification icons are now like for Gtalk and texts :3

Anyone having problems with Swype. It looks like my vocabulary transfered over but sometimes I have trouble "correctly" typing the simplest words. Where/ how can I get the black Swype theme that was on Bionix 1.2? :3
[Vibrant Android Development] edykes1:
Dude! That rocks! I thought I tried every thing. This worked like a charm. Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] ohmyggg:
Agreed. The terms "light," "moderate," and "heavy" are very subjective when it comes to usage. For me, heavy usage means using the web constantly, on sites with white backgrounds, lots of content, flash, etc, while listening to my headphones. To someone else it could mean playing back HD video content, streaming Pandora or Youtube, playing graphics-heavy games, constant text messaging, talking on speakerphone, etc.

I think a streamlined protocol for comparing battery usage would be brilliant but who is brilliant enough to design/implement such a protocol?

Having said that, starting with Bionix-v 1.0, I have been getting 18 hours+ on *my* moderate usage and I couldn't be happier since I was only at 6-8 hours on the stock T-Mo ROMs. My phone is properly going into suspend/sleep now and not tasking the CPU when I have my screen turned off.
[Vibrant Android Development] ohmyggg:
Anybody else here think that we desperately need a TW-specific sticky/troubleshooting section (maybe a wiki linked in the OP?) for all of the common problems people have with these ROMs?

Seems the same 5 or 10 questions keep getting asked over and over and have probably cluttered up 20 pages of this thread. I know, they should be using search but it'll still help a lot of folks out and save everyone else from the repetitive posts.
[Vibrant Android Development] sLiKK:
Does Bionix-v 1.2.1 have the same shut down animation as Bionix V?

Also can anyone post screen shots or video review of Bionix-v 1.2.1?

Ive seen video review of Bionix V but not V 1.2!!!

I see no need for the 'veiled' hint that your work was ripped off. As you can see from the first post, I have always given credit where it was do, each and every time I've shared this 'tweak' with anyone. See the part where I state I'm not a dev? See the part where I mention Serendipity?

The second quote, from 'Secretseven' was in response to an earlier tweak I had made where I had taken your message bubbles out of that awesome Captivate Rom mms.apk and place it inside one from Nero V5. The text was dark and most who saw it didn't like it. The one I shared with Robzarzeki, was a combination of an mms who's origin I am unsure of and your message bubbles.

Yes, you are right, I do not have the ability to port .xml files, but as the first post can attest, I made no such claims. Thank you so much for theming those bubbles, they have given me and a few others great pleasure. BTW, I would have used the Seredipity mms app unchanged except for the fact that it force closed whenever I tried to send any messages and, of course, not being a dev I was unable to fix it.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
obsidian

No, not exatly. The one you are viewing here is probably from a Captivate rom and will only force close on the Vibrant. I took the bubbles out of that one and put it into a Vibrant compatible mms. It is only about 10 pages back if you want it.:D
[Vibrant Android Development] drcrappants:
are you planning on doing a nonwipe version soon? because i'm no longer interested in wiping (phone, i mean)!
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
Oh I did. What I mean is ka7 deems to hold on to 3g better.

My phone has always had a hard time till ka7.

But I guess diffrent modems may work better for different devices.

Like kb1 that modem was one of the worst for me. Had major 3g issues.

The only constant one for me at least has been ka7.

I hope a better one comes out soon. Thats how bad it is.

My wifes vibrant is the same.

My g1 got way better 3g reception.

It does have the same boot and shutdown animation
[Vibrant Android Development] cowvun:
Is there a noticeable speed difference in the v1.2.1?

Because i'm reluctant to wipe again.

No its just minor updates like colored setting, back to black dialer and etc.

I almost hate to bring this up especially after the events of yesterday, but I notice that with the Rotary lock-screen, the music player widget doesn't appear. I've checked all the other lock screens and it appears when hit the power button while listening to music. Hadn't seen this talked about yet. Is there any work currently going on to change this? I really like the Rotary lock.:)
[Vibrant Android Development] sLiKK:
just flashed 1.2.1 ...its sad to learn that program monitor widget only works with touchwiz. Is there anyway to make it work with launcher pro on Bionix V 1.2.1 (touchwiz version) ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] rel500:
SAFE MODE

ok so yesterday i was theming my phone and i flashed my latest theme and i had the words SAFE MODE on the lower left hand side of my screen, it didnt matter what i was in it kept saying SAFE MODE... it was there all the way until the phone finally shut off, even after the Shutdown animation, i rebooted and it never came back..

Has this happened to anybody?
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
Yeah if you hold the home and menu button something like that when the phone boots, it goes it into safe mode. Its basically like your com booting into safe mode.

i can't edit my voicemail number, which seems to be a new issue I had not experienced before. My phone says that my voicemail number is not stored in the chip, then pops up a choice to enter it manually, but the text box doesn't allow text entry. Can anyone confirm?

Your right! I must have missed that one when I went down the list. And it appears the Rotary lock screen is nothing but a variation of the Android lockscreen. So I guess neither one will ever work with the music widget.:(

[Vibrant Android Development] black spirit:
So far no troubles with this rom, running Dead Horse. One small thing I noticed was that the rotary unlock screen show different time compared to the dockbar time after a reboot. If you unlock, and relock, it fixes it. Nothing to major.
[Vibrant Android Development] os2baba:
Going from Eclair to Froyo, made the external SD card go from /sdcard/sd to /sdcard/external_sd. The apk is pointing to the old Eclair name and hence it doesn't work. Try putting the attached Avatar.apk in the /system/app directory and see if that works. Back up any existing Avatar.apk file first though in case you need to go back.
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
bionix v

Anybody manage to restore that widget that went with the Task Manager?:)
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
bionix v

I'll give it a try, but I've been using Froyo for quite some time now. Maybe since this one is based on Official files, what you say above is true, whereas all the other cooked Roms pointed to the old directory! I'll find out soon.:D

Nope, shot down that theory! LOL! Still not working although it installs just fine.

voicemail number

Conirm, voicemail number does not allow enter number
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
You talking about the Voicemail Contact?

Or whats under settings/call settings?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
I think it's same.

Voicemail Contact - U just dial from dialer

settings/call settings - settings of this number.

But settings/call settings does not allow to enter number
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Ok, the contact is working for me but the button for VM is grated out in settings/call settings.

What do U mean with "Voicemail Contact"?

I mean #1 in dialer

SOM- Could you please include the Feed updater (I think it may have been TouchWhiz widget) back in the next release? Bionix-V had it, but updating to (EDIT) V-1.2 didn't. I usually use that to check my Facebook (I know I know....) or check on my friends and what they are doing (ssttaallkkeerr status ;)

(EDIT) I'm not sure if this was removed for memory issues, or performance issues. I am using a workaround now, so it's not a huge request... but I did enjoy it.

Thanks,

PS- Did you ever get the shorty info forwarded to me? Just send me another PM on XDA with the info. Thanks again.
[Vibrant Android Development] navmit1:
Did not work for me either. quite strange though, I used bloater 0.4 to restore avatar.apk on bionix 1.2 and that worked like a charm. The same bloater generated avatar.apk is not working on bionix 1.2.1 - could this be related to the slight framework change that there is on the new bionix?
[Vibrant Android Development] rorycs:
I have the same situation. The Bloater version worked fine in Bionix V, but not the 1. 2 update.
[Vibrant Android Development] rorycs:
I have read the thread and have not really seen anyone have this yet.

My battery went from 100% to 87% in 38 minutes. The only app I was using was XDA.

Before you ask, yes I flashed it correctly, yes I reset the battery stats correctly.

Ideas or comments are appreciated.

Edit: now down to 83% just in the time it took to write this and upload the image.
[Vibrant Android Development] kazumahits:
what is very snappy?
[Vibrant Android Development] tenbeau:
I believe in the OP it states to give it at least 24 to 48 to 72 hours before you even consider what battery life is or will be like. I believe that it has only been about 48 hours since the rom was released, Did you just flash or did you flash it as soon as it came out? Have you waited that long? Also were you at 100% when you flashed? Just trying to help.
[Vibrant Android Development] rorycs:
Yes, I flashed at 100% and it has been way over 24 hours.
[Vibrant Android Development] dicoale:
hi, i've a ffc mod on my vibrant and I'd like to try to make a video call to a phone number, with the phone, no ather progs, i know that on nero v5 there was on the dial pad the button for videocall, how may i port it on bionix? thank you

Edit: Solved, I took the DialerTabActivity.apk from an i9000 custom rom and put it in system/app, changed permissions and it works.

thank you

The time display on your wallpaper - is that Beautiful Widgets? Wood plank wallpaper is cool too - is that from HD Rare Black?
[Vibrant Android Development] parusia:
Try to wait a little bit longer, the first 25 hours after I flash the ROM, my battery life was bad (13 hours with medium to heavy use). Right now my battery is at 68% after 21 hours of medium/heavy use. Wait a little more time.:D
[Vibrant Android Development] ohmyggg:
Dropped 17% in about 45 minutes? I'd say that's about normal for heavy usage.

my thoughts on the rom and kernel

the rom is very fast and very stable. my only complaint is that my accelerometer seems to be sensitive.

the dragon kernel drains my battery FAST. doesn't even last a day (i barely talk or surf on the phone). sigh, when is battery technology going to get better?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Confirm,

Email app (not gmail) doesn't dowload anything, nor header nor full letter.

[Vibrant Android Development] parusia:
This is my battery history with my Vibrant.

Stock 2.1 8-10 hours maximum.

Macnut ROMS 12 hours.

Gingerbread from EB Productions 9 hours.

Nero V3 18 hours.

Nero V4 20 hours.

Nero V5 24 hours.

Bionix V 28 hours.

Bionix V1.2 32 hours.

Bionix V1.2.1 Almost 40 hours.

I'm happy with this ROM. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] rorycs:
I would be happy too! I can say that I had better battery life on Bionix V, and that was right out of the box.

Maybe you can tell me what apps you have installed? I also have run system monitor to make sure nothing is running constantly.

Weather Calendar in Google Calendar

I have the weather calendar enabled on the google account that I use on my Vibrant. After a new flash with Bionix 1.2.1 the weather forecast shows up in the calendar (4 days ahead) but after that point it never syncs again. I have tried disabling the wx calander in the settings, reenabling it, removing the account,and adding a new one, etc. but no combinations have worked. If anyone has the wx calander enabled, whould you check to see if yours is updating. I have tried reflashing several times with no luck. It always worked in Nero 3,4.1, and 5. Don't know about Bionix 1.2 as I went straight to 1.2.1. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

My battery life has been less than spectacular, but I am giving it time.

I installed the rom about 3pm thursday on 100% charge. Wiped battery stats etc. ran battery down that night setting all my crap up, and charged overnight.

Friday with heavy use, 2 conf. Calls on bluetooth for about 1 1/2 hours total, responded to 50+ emails/txt messages, setup two widgets. After about 5 hours I was plugging in at 3% battery.

After that charge, I noticed it lasted longer last evening, having made several calls totalling an hour or more, about 100 texts and several emails I was barely down to 75%.

I figure I will give it a few more charge cycles and see what it does from there. Honestly I have never truly had that great of battery life on this phone, and sure have never seen life over 8-10 hours with my usage patterns.

wifi issues

I installed 1.2.1 the first day it came out. Do the usual routine of a flash addict. (Fully charged wipe data wipe dalvik yada yada you know what i mean):-)

Everything works fine except installings theme not compatible cause bootlooping because of the rotary unlock screen.

Battery life 14 hours heavy user. Gps and data good. I use Ka7 btw

Then the real problem comes when im using wifi and someone calls me I can't hear them.

So I odin back to stock and reflash again. Same things happens.

IF som or any of tw member can address this issues it will help me. Im a TW fan so im not switching to other rom:-) :-) :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] rorycs:
OK, I will try this. I used Titanium and froze:

DRM (both)

Media Hub

News & Weather

wssyncminps (not familiar with this, what is it?)

I run the following widgets:

TV Shows Favs

Palmary Weather (2 Hour updates)

Mobile Signal Widget

3G Watchdog (1 Hour Updates)

Vlingo Control Widget

Bing Widget

Google Search Widget

Folder Organizer to keep it all manageable
[Vibrant Android Development] cjggilbert:
Yes, the time display is beautiful widgets, the wood plank background is part of a black background zip that I found somewhere. I will add the zip file later to this post.

BTW, the monster energy signal bar is my first attempt at any kind of mod. I think it looks pretty cool. Goes red when no service,

EDIT: Added zip with black wallpapers, wish I could remember where I got it so that I could give proper credit.

The OP states 42-72 hours use, which is what I meant by giving it more charge cycles, was more daily use cycles.
[Vibrant Android Development] southplatte:
Lol. I was at 100% when I flashed, and just meant I was giving it 48-72 hours use as the OP thread states and normal charge cycles I have to do to ensure my batt has charge when I am on the go for work.
