[Vibrant Android Development] Charlie Brown:
Honestly I dont know how some people have all these issues and/or "bugs". At any rate....

IMO 90% of the time its due to lack of patients,knowledge and following directions.

I have Odined to stock only ONCE! And when I flash a new ROM I recharge the phone to 100% then delete old user files, then reboot into recovery,delete partition cache, delete dalvik cache, delete battery stats, flash the ROM of choice, let the phone boot and sit for at least 10 minutes and then reboot and let it sit for 5.

I do a fresh install of all my apps. And again.... I have only Odined once to get back to stock just for the hell of it and I own my Vibrant since early July 2010 and have flashed about once a week every week! ....rofl (flash-a-holic)

To be honest I dont know what the heck you are all doing to get these soft bricks,bricks bugs,random reboots etc.

I know some phones act differently but lets do some prep work and reading before we start posting "bugs" shall we :)

And let me not forget. Thanks Team Whisky for the ROM! Everything works great and it's snappier than the previous BIONIX. Even gallery is faster. Cheers!

PS I notice a lot of the bug reports are coming from somewhat new xda members. I dont want to stereotype and I am NO way the "elitist" type. But it seems some might be rushing things??? lol
[Vibrant Android Development] Mossy425:
I think I'm going into flash overload, I can't decide between frost and 1.3. I've been switcing back and forth all day :)
[Vibrant Android Development] GoodVibrant-ions:
I agree with Charlie Brown.

Read,read,read.

Boot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset, flash rom, wipe partitions, and I do a factory reset again. All from CWR and I haven't had any trouble.

Also! I figured out the md5 checksum for the update 1.3fix.

For those that don't know what an md5 checksum is. Its a code that you can compare with the downloaded file to make sure you didn't get a corrupt download. I never flash before checking this. Go to market and download hashdroid. Its free and you can use it to check that you aren't flashing a corrupt file. Its way too easy to do considering the consequences. If you can flash a rom, you can check a checksum.

MD5 checksum for the bionix v 1.3fix: 45789780a5ea8a9fd3c2efef71b23110

I downloaded it 3 seperate times and hashdroid calculated it the same all three times so I would venture to say its accurate.
[Vibrant Android Development] junglerumble:
Can't send picture texts (mms?). What do I do?!

Everything else is amazing btw.
[Vibrant Android Development] Charlie Brown:
Good idea

Nice idea. Thats easiest way too, instead of doing it manually.
[Vibrant Android Development] chef_w:
Try flashing the AOSPmms.zip from the OP. Solved it for me :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] MilkPudding:
Oops sorry. I was just reading the last page, looking for pattern lock screen fix and didn't realize you were referring to the lastest fix. Someone has posted it in the previous page.
[Vibrant Android Development] ihackyourtech:
It seems like the issue with hitting the google soft key, typing and it freezing - is fixed.

I'm getting great battery life so far after 1 battery reconditioning cycle. I'll report any bugs that I may come across.

Also, specially thanks to you guys Team Whiskey. Making the best ROM's around, period!

Getting mount errors

So I got my new phone... back to hacking away at it...

it came as 2.2 KA6

1. Rooted it with SuperOneClick

2. Got the modded 3e recovery

3. When I go to install.. I get a E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 (or /dev/block/mmblk0p1 (Device or resource busy)

E:Can't mount /sdcard

4. I reboot and everything is fine, all is mounting...

5. Can I not install any roms?
[Vibrant Android Development] MilkPudding:
Try reformatting your internal SD. If it doesn't work, check if your computer could detect your INTERNAL SD.

If it can't: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695243
[Vibrant Android Development] :
reformatting did nothing... still wouldn't mount to install any rom...

The url is for the evo...

Any help any one... might be giving up soon... at least my phone won't brick, but these roms are great!
[Vibrant Android Development] k9982874:
it's really true. in fact i love bionix, i use bionix from 1.0 and i really want to use 1.3 rom. however...

tw team is great, thx a lot! i think it's my bad luck.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Anyone having issues with Avatar? Tried to play the movie and it said the file cannot be played. Worked fine in 1.2.1
[Vibrant Android Development] accordex:
Can someone reply with a dl link for a phone apk that will not show txts in my call log? Flashed fix but txts still showing and only other options are to show missed/dialed/rcvd ....but only 1 of those at a time...id like all 3 but no txts...thanks...this was the case on the last tw rom I used...not sure y you guys keep using the "all logs" ver of dialers...ther must be a good reason....but it is annoying as hell... :)

Other than that this rom is the fastest one so far...very nice work...thank you so much for all your time
[Vibrant Android Development] jdm4u:
so finally got to flash Bionix 1.3. Flashed it over Bionix 1.2.1 with no problem. 1.3 is alot smoother and faster than 1.2.1, and 1.2.1 was fast as it is. I cannot find any bugs other than Avatar not playing, but eh, i dont even watch it. I like the themed lockscreens. The puzzle lock version gives it a honeycomb look. The app drawer seems to move alot smoother than 1.2.1, and 1.2.1 was smooth to begin with lol. I have the AOSP version, not TW btw. There are other minor changes between both versions. One, the settings menu doesnt have the colorful icons that 1.2.1 had, which honestly, at first i though i missed it, but you get used to the black and white theme, looks more, mature for lack of a better word. One thing i do miss is the shutdown sound :( I thought it was a nice touch and the looks people gave whenever i was flashing add ons or what not were awesome lol. Other than that, a great build. Haven't come across any other bugs other than avatar not playing.

with that said, anyway to add the sound back to the shutdown boot?
[Vibrant Android Development] Vanilla gorilla:
Im positive for the first time since I've owned an android device I no longer need cyanogenmod...never thought I would see the day. TW my hat is off to you
[Vibrant Android Development] Nabeel10:
Thanks ill try it
[Vibrant Android Development] GoodVibrant-ions:
Lol. I agree. The only thing I miss is Linda during shutdown. I need to audibly know when the bionix shutdown sequence has initiated or it ruins my whole day. Sometimes I shut down just to hear her. Haha

One thing to report. It seems that the GPS lock is worse after flashing the 1.3fix. I may be wrong though as satellites have moved since I checked before flashing a few hours ago. But I can't get a lock now and could before.
[Vibrant Android Development] GoodVibrant-ions:
Yes. I think everyone is having trouble with this. I imagine there will be a fix. Its not just you though.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
ok, thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] |Logic|:
just had a weird reboot after trying to take a picture in the highest resolution, will try to test and reproduce it
[Vibrant Android Development] MilkPudding:
Ya. It definitely has something to do with DRM coz I can play all other videos except Avatar that comes with the phone.

Also, the graphics for pattern lock is still not aligned.
[Vibrant Android Development] d0rkster:
What modem is 1.3 running? Which one do you guys recommend?
[Vibrant Android Development] |Logic|:
it is running KA5. I have kept it due to battery life and gps performance, though modem is entirely subjective.
[Vibrant Android Development] ULiAsuj10:
anybody has call log app missing....just making sure...hope. not being victim of bad flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Just tested, screen turned white, froze and rebooted, Definitely weird.

Did you flash the fix in OP?

Other than the camera and the drm (not a deal breaker), this rom is the fastest thing my phone has seen. Fantastic....
[Vibrant Android Development] ohmyggg:
Someone had mentioned a while back that if you take the dialerTabactivity.apk from Bionix-v 1.2 and place it into /system/app, you will have the option to show all calls.

In case you don't have it, I've attached the .apk (taken right out of the Bionix-v 1.2 flashable .zip).

EDIT: Might want to rename the existing dialerTabactivity.apk to dialerTabactivity.apk.bak in case you want to go back and also set permissions for the new .apk to rw-r--r--.
[Vibrant Android Development] |Logic|:
wow glad to see it wasn't just me :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Not kernal related. I tried dow and dane thing..
[Vibrant Android Development] Homeless2:
I can reproduce this. I was using camera360 app set at highest resolution, press picture button, get white screen and device reboots
[Vibrant Android Development] Soldi3rxx:
For all those who like the Segmented Battery Mod, all I did was take the original Bionix 1.3 file and replace the battery images, nothing else. I love it. Msg me if you want me to send you the file. I renamed it 'bionix-v-1.3-touchwiz (Segmented Batt)" instead of the original bionix-v-1.3-touchwiz. It will do a full wipe as I don't know how to do it any other way.
[Vibrant Android Development] ULiAsuj10:
hehehe thanks....didn't even noticed that...
[Vibrant Android Development] da_gluck:
after installation bionix 1.3 fix phone began spontaneously leaving to Kernel Panic :(
[Vibrant Android Development] lallolu:
Nice ROM but can you please add colour back to the settings sub-menu like in v1.2.1. OR you can make a flashable zip just for that?
[Vibrant Android Development] boodies:
I just took a pic on highest resolution. It's fine for me. No problem here.
[Vibrant Android Development] GenTsoChkn:
I'm getting an "error in server response" when trying to send mms. Sorry if this was already mentioned, I couldn't find anything with search
[Vibrant Android Development] VVerevvolf:
I know it's a personal thing, but I thought I missed the color icons but now I have experienced both (v1.2.1 and v1.3) in a relatively short period of time I think I prefer the B&W. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] ThC23:
I agree, I've never Odin back to stock! I've been flashing since Obsidian and if you've followed TW since then you know how many releases there has been of Obsidian, Nero and now Bionix! Along the way I've flashed lots of themes for each one along with trying out something other then a TW Rom! Yeah I also like to flash!

Anyways point is out of all those flashes one once did I have a problem and that was with mms, I flashed the Asop mms and it fixed the problem!

Not sure what people are doing, but I don't think they are doing it right! Then again not every phone is the same! Maybe the phone doesn't like to get flashed so many time! Lol!

Rockin that Bionix V 1.3 w/ Red Overkill 1.3
[Vibrant Android Development] qasimzia512:
Team whiskey rocks!!! Bionix is the best rom ever...i tried the frost but couldnt acess my external card and i have alot of stuff saved on external so i came back to this baby again. Once again, you guys r da best. Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] suua:
love the theme its loks awsome :) i wish i could have it on me GT-9000 :/
[Vibrant Android Development] Magum p.i.:
Only problem I'm having as others have stated is that my avatar movie is not playong,all my other vifeos play though.other then that this is definetly the fastest most responsive 2.2 rom I've used to date.thx som,tw,and all who contributed.
[Vibrant Android Development] got_thang?:
I love it! Keep up the great work TW!:D
[Vibrant Android Development] banshee28:
I flashed the fix in the OP (although it does not mention specifically a camera fix), and just tested the camera at the highest resolution. It works perfect here.
[Vibrant Android Development] peekapoo:
Just flashed this rom, and GPS does not work!

I had Bionix 1.2.1 and GPS worked great, and now it only sees 2 birds in 5 minutes.

Any fix on that? ot should I change modem? If so, how do I change modem?
[Vibrant Android Development] jpnelson40:
I like them colored also. But Sombonix must have a preference for it B&W. It would be nice to have a preference, but I admit it is a small nit since one doesn't live in the settings very much (I hope).
[Vibrant Android Development] banshee28:
Just stating my results...I too flashed over Bionix 1.2.1 ....Flashed 1.3 and gps works just fine. It took a little while to get the first lock, but after that its pretty quick. This was last night. Will test more today.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikeone33:
I think my question got lost in the shuffle. Is the green suppose to be there, or do I have a bad flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Meant to be there
[Vibrant Android Development] mikeone33:
I'll keep using the rom and wait for a theme.

The green gives an illusion of a brown hue on my phone just like the pic.

I love the battery life and voodoo sound so I will put up with it.
[Vibrant Android Development] MilkPudding:
I prefer B&W too coz it looks much more in sync with the overall look of the theme.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
Since one of the points of this ROM was to reduce size, perhaps the B&W icons are smaller in storage size than the colored ones. I know it might not be much, but every little bit here and there adds up in terms or making it smaller.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
This ROM didn't brick you, nor did the frost combination. I went from frost to 1.3 twice now.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
I flashed mine last night, then went to bed. I also came from 1.2.1 to 1.3.

Like you, my GPS locked on really quickly this morning, and after a calibration, direction is accurate as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] banshee28:
It may be known by some, but I also think one of the main reasons why he uses B&W is to reduce battery consumption. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
Yup, I think you're right.

Also, is it necessary to flash the update? I haven't had any issues with reviewing pictures in camera mode, and the call log icon is there on my dialer. Is it just a fix for some folks having issues, but not all? I'm always hesitant because if something is working, I don't like to screw with it. I've held off on flashing the update.
[Vibrant Android Development] banshee28:
I didn't have any "issues" either but since he posted a fix, I didn't hesitate at all to flash it! Seriously, I would feel safer flashing the fix than waiting to see if anything breaks down the road when you least expect it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
You're probably right again. I went ahead and flashed it and so far, the earth hasn't stopped spinning or anything. No matter how many times I've flashed, I always have that split second of "oh ****, I hope this goes well" right as I click "yes - flash...."

Mainly I'm not looking forward to having to grab another phone off of craigslist and start all over again.
[Vibrant Android Development] hotadef:
This rom rocks im staying with bionix until ginger bread and or cm7 is fully stable. Hardware acceleration would be worth it
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
One thing I am noticing.

The video player won't play any movies that I have on the SD card. Not just Avatar, but any of them. The Double Twist player works (won't play Avatar of course), and I've never had an issue with the stock video player in the past. Kind of a bummer because I prefer the stock player and I like the 5.1 sound it can play. Anyone else or is it just me?
[Vibrant Android Development] jonwilly:
Plus one...
[Vibrant Android Development] parmijo11:
My transformers 1&2 and star trek play fine, personal recorded videos play fine but Avatar will not play. This was stated yesterday and many others are having the issue with avatar.
[Vibrant Android Development] vtxGump:
Anyone else getting the USB icons in the notification bar even when completed unplugged?

I flashed 1.3 last night and waited about 10 minutes to flash the update. Noticed this problem, but just rebooted the phone and went to bed. Woke this morning and problem still there.
[Vibrant Android Development] jaxminzsky:
Try use "gps aids" from market, the only thing that work for me
[Vibrant Android Development] Yaz75:
That happens to me if I reboot from recovery with the cable plugged in. If you unplug the USB cable, then just do a normal reboot, it should clear them. At least it does for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] calvinpreston:
is it possible to have "Feeds and Updates" widget on the 1.3 NON-TW version?

Great Rom !!! I have been using Samsung Keyboard option because of Korean input, but it's gone now. Ginger Bread has Foreign Language Option, but it crash when selected. Is there there a way to have Samsung Key option back?
[Vibrant Android Development] tgerbracht:
Only comment I can make other than"good work" is the signal meter seems to be very conservative when showing the signal. I used to have 2-3 bars in my home with 1.2, now it often shows zero bars.

No, only works with touchwiz launcher. Try "Colorize Widget" in the market. You just might like it.

Just tried to make a purchase through market and am stuck on authorizing. No issue with other Bionix V ROM. My brother is also having this same issue. Anyone else?

[Vibrant Android Development] Hung0702:
I'd prefer a less aggressive RAM managing style. I often find myself juggling between two or three appear, only to find the app I just left needs to completely reload when I return to it?

Any advice? I'd really like to stick with Team Whiskey ROMS until CM7 is stable.
[Vibrant Android Development] jhepoy:
So far amazing ROM.. Battery Left widget says 16:30 hours capacity and still increasing as it calibrates..

For my general use, the only bug that I encounter most often is with my Bluetooth headset. My headset is a Samsung WEP870. Everytime I turn off my bluetooth (from phone) while the headset is still connected, I loss all the sounds, sometimes it will come back later, or sometimes I need to reboot to get sounds back. I tested the headset on my HTC-G2, and it works fine... this issue started happening to me on the KA and KB based ROMs.. the JL series of ROMs works fine.. just an FYI.. I can live with it.. but would be appreciated if fixed..

You might possibly D/L it again and try a fresh flash.

I can play videos, but they fairly consistently lock up my phone after a few minutes of playback. I can't even wait it out, always have to remove the battery to reboot. I'm I alone in this?

Great rom of course in everything else I've experienced using it, very fast! TW rocks.
[Vibrant Android Development] JediDru:
I flashed this last night. Played around with it very fast! While in standby while I was sleeping I was mortified by a battery drain of 6-8% each hour. This is with the included kernel. Thinking of trying the dead horse again the worst drain I had an hour was around >3%.
[Vibrant Android Development] Munk0:
You know that most all of the problems and enhancements in this thread, 343mb RAM increase and speed improvements are because of the overstock kernel from cmenard right? The camera preview issue and the need for the fix.zip is because of the slimmed down kernel. In fact cmenard has a fix now for the camera preview in his post which i havent tried just yet over here:

[Vibrant Android Development] lookylookitzadam:
Posted this a while back, but now it got lost in the abyss of the thread. Here it is again for those that PM'd and asked.

_________________________________________________________________

Not sure if anyone wants these, but I have attached two flashable zips.

no-kernel-bionix-1.3-fix.zip is the fix posted by SOM but without the kernel since I am running dragon. Basically it will add the fixes but not change the kernel. SOM, feel free to pull this is you want or have me remove it if you only want updates coming from TW.

phonedialerupdate.zip is a modded phone.apk that gets rid of the ascending ringtone delay when receiving a call. This one will at ringer volume from the beginning unlike stock which starts low and gets louder.

***disclaimer, i am not responsible for anything that happens to your devices. These work perfect for me....etc etc. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK****

Also if anyone wants my battery mod I can upload that too. See attached sheet. Its basically a gingerbread man with the gingerbread green outline that disappears as your battery drains. Let me know and Ill post it. Not that these are rather large so they are pixelated. Once they are actual size, it is clear and crisp.
