[Vibrant Android Development] Corvette Dave:
Cool... Sound like you will be enjoying Bionix V soon. Remember to let it sit for 10 minutes and then reboot!

Best rom I have run on my vibrant!

Vibrant

Bionix V

ADW Launcher
[Vibrant Android Development] Dmkjr:
You need to first go into the applications folder, where all your processes are shown. Then hit menu, filter to apply the filter. Note- Not cAsE sensitive.

Freeze, do not delete.
[Vibrant Android Development] Bl4ckpheniX:
SOM,

Maybe a boot animation with the "V" from the old tv show "V" laid over bionix image. It would be very fitting.

Great Rom! Been running this since 2 hours after release.

Battery = great after a couple cycles

Stability = amazing if you follow direction and reboot like recommended.

Speed = very good, and smooth

IMHO Best Rom I have flashed to date

I have the notifications playing out of the phone speaker when I have my headset plugged in. Is there a way to fix this?
[Vibrant Android Development] ncalvin:
Yay, finally running. It's...so...damn...awesome :D

This'll definitely tide me over until someone gets a full-featured ninjabread ROM uploaded!

SBGinger

I just confirmed that it was Nero V3 that allowed 8 open pages in the browser. Thanks to a previous poster on this site! It has the Gingerbread icon. Use Root Explorer. Rename present browser 'browser.apk.bak, then place this one in System/app alongside that one and change permissions to rw-r--r--.:D

I made a video about clockwork recovery

I made a short YouTube video showing RED and GREEN clockwork recovery and how I got into them.

There has been some debate on this subject and I figured I would make a video that might clear things up.

I made this video because I was called wrong, then someone called him wrong, and people pretty much called everybody wrong, So here ya go! Call my video wrong!

And for anyone that doesn't know, this should make it pretty clear. I paused the video for the reboots so it wouldn't be too long.

The phone into film is running Nero 5. This has been the same on Nero 3, 4, 4.1 ,5 and Bionix V. Since Team Wiskey started running SuperCurio's stock +voodoo 2.2 Kernel. The RED Clockwork is Part of the kernel.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jwMo5HehdA

1st time into GREEN clockwork

I started ROM MANAGER and selected "reboot into recovery"

2nd time into RED Clockwork

I long pressed the power button and selected "recovery"

3rd time into RED Clockwork

I used the three button salute

On a side note, give Bionix V some time on the first boot before you get scared (it takes a long time), with the current boot animation i thought i was in a boot loop, it just kept going over and over. I ended up just walking away and doing the dishes.
[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
Which one is the transparent one?

I installed one and it was not transparent and didn't want to risk messing up my phone by adding another app with the same name.

Should I just uninstall the existing one then use another apk?

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] phntm:
Outstanding mod, comming from nero 4.1 :

The GPS is finally working, I've done the hardware fix but only with this mod I finally get the quick locks I've been waiting for.

Also titanium ported all the settings nicely.

Car Home Dialer landscape settings

This is my first time posting to this and I must say that TW rocks with these ROMS....I have really run into one issue that seems easy to fix, but I just don't know how. When docking the phone in the car dock, the dialer will not go landscape. Everything else goes landscape with no issue. Can't someone redo the dialer to detect car home and go landscape ? I could have sworn this was possible in Nero V3 or V5 ....please help

I tried to google this for many hours and I tried a search of these forums with no answer before posting.
[Vibrant Android Development] enzomtrx:
Battery life is quite amazing so far. I work nights with steady use and gaming on my phone for 10 hours, only 40% down.

Im thinking pandora will be open longer while hooked up to the PA system now. :-)

Favorite rom.

Sent from my Bionix-v'd haxsung vibrant.

Installing ThinkDroid

I have downloaded Bionix V and ThinkDroid into the sd. How do i install Thinkdroid?
[Vibrant Android Development] huasamaya:
Please advice

i just download bionix V and 3 words " I LOVE IT " thanks TW.

I showed it to my girl and she likes and want it too, with only one condition, she wants to keep the old icon from 2.1.

My question is, Can i download Bionix V.zip to my computer and open it with 7-zip and modified the Icons, and the flashed it? please advice, BTW she wants the BionixV TW version.

thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] amandadam:
Did you flash Bionx-v yet?

You have to flash the rom first and then flash the add on(ThinkDroid),with CWM.
[Vibrant Android Development] Settai:
No ROM is better to this one not even phones that have CM ROMs... its just absolutely perfect I dont understand how it could possibly get any better. Everything opens immediately, phone is extra smooth, gps locks in >5 seconds accurately, and so much more
[Vibrant Android Development] ajftl:
Its the 850mhz frequency enable on this rom by default?
[Vibrant Android Development] saylas:
Wow I have a great and strange problem.

I had Nero v5 flashed with Voodoo. I downloaded Bionix-v. Went to red Recovery, chose Bionix zip, flashed. After a while it was written that rom flashed. Then I chose 'reboot system now' and after that phone didn't turn on.

I took out the battery, SIM, SD-card, but I can't turn on the phone. Nothing is written, it doesn't charge, even no -!- sign. Nothing, no reaction. What has happened?

(repost from http://board.teamwhiskey.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1126&p=14846#p14846)
[Vibrant Android Development] YMark:
SMS message in the call logs ARE a DEAL BREAKER for me. I'll stick with Nero 5.

If you're a heavy texter, it sucks to have to look for a number in the call logs. It also screws up my call logs on my GPS when I pair my phone to it. Bottom line.... it is a major bug in the ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] jonnyibanez:
Not sure if im missing something but i dont see the link for it on the TW site. only the 2.1 bionix roms and the Nero Roms.

Is there a link in a seperate location or am I just blind?
[Vibrant Android Development] PePPaZ:
Thats not a bug, hit menu in the call log and sort by calls.
[Vibrant Android Development] mainevent3405:
FYI, if you use the blackfroyo theme, all call logs are only for calls and message logs are only for messages, both tabs are found in the dialer itself. pretty cool!
[Vibrant Android Development] Bl4ckpheniX:
Have you tried getting into download mode and using Odin to get back to stock and reflash?

If you haven't used odin before. search the forum and get ready to use it.

Once you have read up on Odin , enter download mode by removing and reinstalling the battery>hold both up/down volume buttons at the same time> while plugging in the micro usb to the vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
Blind.

If you click on the link at the bottom of the first post (It says Download: then Bionix-v under it in hypertext), then it will take you to the download page for the ROMS. And it will have the link for both versions directly under the PayPal Donate button.
[Vibrant Android Development] thevaristy:
I love the wallpaper! Could someone post it so I can use it on my Droid?
[Vibrant Android Development] TJBunch1228:
So went from Nero 4.1 to Bionix V last night. So far it seems like the day to day will be almost identical. I installed the DoW 1.4ghz on this just like I had it on 4.1. I Had (as my un-updated sig suggests) Quads of over 2k, with my FPS capping at 65. With B-V my Quads are topping out at 1700 and my FPS is 50.

Like I said I don't see much of a difference in day-to-day, I'll know for sure in a few days, but I am just curious if everyone else has this same situation. What is different about B-V that is making my FPS top out at 50?
[Vibrant Android Development] ajftl:
Im a heavy texter and im having not problem here.
[Vibrant Android Development] saylas:
I know what is Odin. The phone doesn't react anyway. No download, recovery mode, it doesn't stuck on loading. I press power button and no reaction. Press volume buttons, power button, pressed buttons while entering cable, only black screen and no reaction
[Vibrant Android Development] Alkaloid:
I hate to say it, but it's bricked. A real brick too. Exact same thing happened to me last night except I was coming from masters AOSP clone rom. I've tried everything to get into download mode or to get any sign of life from the phone to no avail. I'm no stranger to soft bricks and using Odin by any means. The **** is hard bricked.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Were you coming from Master's rom to this rom? This rom contains the sbl.bin and a bad flash could result in a hard brick.
[Vibrant Android Development] murdamo305:
Rom runs great.

Battery is ehhhhh. I unplugged it at 9 and its 11 am. And im at 74% with mild use.

Anyways.

I noticed something I didn't like.

When I go to my call logs. It shows my text log as well.

I don't want that.

If I wanted to see who I texted, I would go to my messages. Not my call log.

How can I change this?
[Vibrant Android Development] Alkaloid:
Yeah, I was coming from Kana AOSP clone v1.0
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I don't believe the Kana rom contains the sbl.bin so it would have to of been a bad flash to this rom. Assuming the sbl.bin is what caused the problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] saylas:
Wow and if it contains sbl.bin and it can cause hard brick, why nobody said about it in first message.

And besides if I have bad flash, why it was written that flashed successfully?

so my only way to rescue the phone is JTAG?
[Vibrant Android Development] CivlDX:
I'm still running nero v4 for this reason. Other people addressed this issue too, but I'm not aware of a solid solution. Is there no "view by" option anymore that allows you to only see calls?
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
Problem for me is it just doesn't allow you to filter "calls" or "messages". It breaks it down to sent, received, missed etc. 6 sub-categories to view in the call log, but haven't found a way to filter by a broader type if that makes any sense.
[Vibrant Android Development] Alkaloid:
I gave a copy of Kana 1.0 to another Dev so he could take a look at it, and although it does not have the SBL.bin (bootloader) included, he said that it looked like there are some issues with redbend_ua that could cause this to happen. Which is odd, because the bricking is happening when flashing Bionix V. I've read through this entire thread and come across a few different posts claiming hard bricks. The thing is though that not all are coming from masters rom. Some, like Sylas, are coming from Nero.

I would also like to make it very clear that I am not blaming or pointing fingers for what happened to my phone. I know the risks we take when modding these phones and I made the decision to do so. I certainly am not a n00b but I am also not an expert, but I do find it very, very strange that I and others have hard bricked their Vibrants by simply flashing a rom through clockwork. I mean, seriously, how can you **** that process up?
[Vibrant Android Development] CivlDX:
Yeah, that makes sense. In my call log "view by", I have the options of:

All calls, all logs, missed calls, dialed calls, received calls, sent messages, and sent messages.

Which of those are you missing?
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
I want to be able to view all placed, received and missed calls at the same time and view none of the messages. That was how the stock 2.1 worked and it made way more sense to me. I don't understand why I need any messages in the call log since all I'd have to do is to just open messenger to see any activity.
[Vibrant Android Development] Settai:
Well its probably because they didnt even know that is was a possibility. I remember when KA6(7?) leaked and someone first discovered it that no one knew what it did or why it was there, and I didnt stick around long enough to get an answer if there even is one.

Its also a possibility that its not the reason your phone bricked in the first place...
[Vibrant Android Development] CivlDX:
Maybe the best option would be to flash nero v4 with the latest modem. Everything is working great for me still...
[Vibrant Android Development] Alkaloid:
I really wish someone could figure out why exactly his is happening so it doesn't happen to anyone else. Not everyone can afford to replace their phone. I, being one of those people.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
You may be right.

But I wont because this thing is stupid fast and stable as hell. GPS works perfectly, haven't got a serious complaint. The call log thing is just a tiny irritant that I can easily ignore.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
When you say "they" who are you referring to? The devs most definitely know what the sbl.bin is for. I know it is not required to run the latest KA7 rom as I did not include it in my deodex version and it runs just fine for ppl.

Of course, like you said it might not be the sbl.bin that caused this at all.

I haven't actually looked at the redbend_ua that is being used in Kana, but I'm going to take a wild shot in the dark and say its the hacked redbend_ua that Untermensch provided for us. I've been using this for some time and have not had any problems with it. The only real difference you'll notice when flashing is that there is not an ugly blue splash screen anymore. It does serve other purposes, though not pertinent to this topic/thread. Like I said though I haven't looked at it so I could be wrong about it being used.
[Vibrant Android Development] hololight:
Any of you hard bricks try making a "jig" (personally I call it a dongle, but whatever) to get phone into download?
[Vibrant Android Development] enzomtrx:
Plug in phone, hold just both vol buttons, then insert battery. I've bricked, but this is surefire. Otherwise, sorry for your loss. Hope its resolved.
[Vibrant Android Development] Alkaloid:
I haven't, but I seriously doubt it will help. It's my understanding that a jig will only work if the phone is soft bricked and/or hardware locked. Let me rephrase that. I have read that a jig only works on soft bricks.

I haven't read about anyone having success using a jig when hard bricked.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
On another post that got moved to General... we had several people that thought they had a hard brick with the sbl.bin....but the odd thing was that when they plugged in the phone with ODIN open it brought up a COM port and they were still able to flash without being in Download mode..

I tend to lean towards the "yea, it may make it easier to brick" but it seems to provide a way out of a brick by allowing you to use ODIN while the phone has no D/L mode or completely black.

Of course this could not be related in any way to the sbl but I have never seen that happen before or heard of it until KA6 & KA7
[Vibrant Android Development] philliman:
Just flash the AOSPmms.zip from the Nero V5 thread
[Vibrant Android Development] saylas:
OMG, there is no Sbl.bin in any Obsidian and Nero. Why TeamWhiskey included this file in this ROM? :(

Now I'm sure for 99% that it was bricked because of Sbl.bin
[Vibrant Android Development] murdamo305:
Exactly. I saved my nero 4.1

:-D
[Vibrant Android Development] Alkaloid:
What provides a way out of a brick? not trying to be a smart ass, I'm genuinely curious.
[Vibrant Android Development] awaisuk:
Why is it that its kinda laggy this rom? Ever since I upgraded from nero 3 to 5 and this now its not as smooth even though voodoo is on......I always odin back before flashing new rom ia there something else that I need to do to make it run fast and smooth
[Vibrant Android Development] Corvette Dave:
Congrats!

Vibrant

Bionix V

ADW Launcher
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
The SBL.bin everyone is going on abt...

See if your ODIN will give you a COM port while your phone is bricked... just open ODIN and plug the phone in
[Vibrant Android Development] Alkaloid:
No go. Weird, I'm surprised this worked for others.
[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
Those weren't hard bricks. Those were soft bricks. The new sbl allows you to connect to odin in the phone ! pc screen. I had a bad kernel flash and I was stuck in that screen and was able to odin out of it. And my jig did not get my phone into download mode, same phone ! pc screen.

If you have a black screen, unfortunately there's nothing that can be done.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
I ve had a completely black screen before.... 2 weeks ago maybe.. no power, no nothing, even had a replacement sent but thought I'd try it one more time. I took out everything in the phone battery, sim, sd card etc etc.. Didnt work.. So what I did since the phone didnt have power was to put everything back in, Open ODIN again Plug the USB into the PC and hold down the volume keys and plug the usb into the phone and it came on.

Cant find the orig. link but here was the other http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=926586

**I even sent the replacement back to tmobile and am still on my old one.
[Vibrant Android Development] Romanbb:
I stand corrected. Weird stuff going on with this new sbl, lol
[Vibrant Android Development] weeden:
Modem ?

Can I flash the KA6 modem over this ROM without problems? KA7 seems to give me poor GPS.
[Vibrant Android Development] PDY05:
Excellent rom but I agree. Coming from nero5 this rom is not as snappy as nero5 was. I still love it though.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
Flashed this twice with no problems, how high is the frequency of these bricks?
[Vibrant Android Development] saylas:
No, didn't help me. Was you phone able to charge during brick?

anyone have issues with the accelerometer with this one? mine is uber sensitive now and switches to landscape when i barely move
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:

[Vibrant Android Development] jereader:
I really didn't think it would get any better than Nero (I was running 3.1), but this ROM is smoking. GPS locks immediately, even in crappy third party apps. Moving around in the UI is super-snappy. I still seem to have some issue with google search from the widget, same as Nero 3.1. Anyone else experience this?

One new issue that I noticed. THE DRUNKEN CLAM IS GONE! Seriously, the new boot anim is cool, but I had really grown to love the clam. Any chance of him coming back?

Anyhow, overall excellent work TW. I truly appreciate all of your effort. Keep it up!
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
I don't think you're corrected, that just sounds like the USB method. I thought I hard bricked with nothing but a black screen once too, but after trying the USB method a few times it managed to get into download. That's how I always get into download (other than adb, terminal, or root applications), easiest way to do it if your device is off.
[Vibrant Android Development] mk262:
The clam was an amazing boot animation. I think that should be the trademark one.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
I was digging back through my posts on this and this is exactly what I did...

I pulled everything out of my phone.

I opened ODIN up and plugged the USB into just the PC

I put the battery back in and held down on both of the volume keys

I plugged the usb into my phone (still holding the volume keys)

Download mode came on shortly after

This way for a hard brick...no power, no charging screen, no battery getting warm, no buttons working ....nothing

For some reason I seem to remember it sitting awhile without the battery because I was waiting on a replacement and I remember every time I tried to plug it in to my PC I got a warning message saying Windows couldn't recognize my device because of a hardware failure....along that line
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesey10:
I last charged my phone 37 hours ago. There is 20% battery left. This is unbelievable.

16 hours of that was while I was asleep.

about an hour was while I was playing need for speed shift

i probably sent 20 text messages

i browsed the web for an hour

i spoke on the phone for about 30 minutes.

I played around with GPS for half an hour.

wi-fi has been mostly off.

I admit it's light use.

[Vibrant Android Development] december.underground:
I have had this problem since voodoo was added, it runs like a champ for the first week then it starts to get laggy and slows down. I just think my phone or memory card doesn't play well with voodoo LOL.

0bey <-_->
[Vibrant Android Development] saylas:
No, doesn't help me :(

But the only difference is that after I plug the battery and try to turn it on, the phone starts getting warm. As I far as i can see it's because of the wrong electric control because of f*cked bootloader.
[Vibrant Android Development] jmcghee1973:
I mean it could be.... See I always had to plug my phone in while it was off, wait for the charge screen and hold all of the buttons down, wait for the charge icon to flash twice and let go of the power button. It wouldnt work that way after mine bricked. I just hold the volume keys now. Maybe it remaps keys ...i dunno its just a guess....but I know mine was DEAD in all senses and it came back but with a different key combo then I had always used.

And then the people that have ODIN recognize their phone when soft bricked..who knows..

Hell.... try ODIN with the files already in place..512.pit and .tar PDA and then the steps I listed...last thing I can think of...
