Hi Jellette -

Glad to see someone saw reason and reopened this!!

A bit of feedback on RC3..

* Wifi working great

* SD Card - nothin you don't already know - but if it helps, I can get the files to appear on my phone if without powering down I just open the cover and pull and replace. However, on my Mac, with USB Debugging ON and Mass Storage ON, the file manager will see the internal SD, but not the external. I know the external no longer shows separately, but when I open the folder within the internal SD, files still don't appear.

* Misc and not your problem - Bluetrigger got really loopy (thank God for Nandroid)

**** Big Beef ****

I came over from 2.2.1 Beta2 + DOW-Voodoo

Before installing Gothi then RC3 last night, I disabled Voodoo and followed the rest of the instructions on Gothi OP.

What I'm running into is weirdness with ClockworkMod. Sometimes when I get in, it has the triangle with the exclamation mark and note that update.zip not verified.

When I pull the battery and go into recovery, it comes up right away.

Also, I did fix permissions in ROM Manager; fix permissions is not showing up in the Advanced CWM menu..

If there is a way to get you more info, let me know and I'll be happy to do so.

GREAT ROM by the way...

PS: Noticed my Quadrant is at about 950..
[Vibrant Android Development] mulcahyd:
Hi jilette. How stable rc4 will be compared to rc3. I mean using is as a daily driver. Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] dligon:
are you going to use eugene's new kernel he just posted about an hour ago, or use the one brick'd is using for his loki rom. or will these kernels just not work.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
I will be giving Heathen a voodoo kernel when we both get home from work.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
I just saw that kernel too...that is a voodoo kernel correct? Does this rom have voodoo disabled by default? The EB-TW Co-Production ROM 2.2.1 says file system is RFS...is this as well? I would like to add SUPERIO kernel instead...I know OP says not exchangeable....I want my bootsounds.
[Vibrant Android Development] irockstar661:
THIS IS JUST INSANE..... This community reminds me of my love life..... everything great, then huge argument, then make-up sex ;)

Thanks Krylon and Jellette for working things out. Hope to see this ROM running and stable.

And cannot wait for the Dev's to bring other great builds to our phones hopefully TOGETHER (or at least helpful).

I appreciate the talent, blood, sweat, and countless hours you all put in here at XDA!
[Vibrant Android Development] dizzy21:
That's Great news.. Glad to see everyone can get along.

I hope the issues people are posing about being laggy get fixed with Voodoo.

Thanks for all your hard work: All of you!!!

:D:D:D:D
[Vibrant Android Development] gatesmarch123:
Lolz.....+1 on the love life.
[Vibrant Android Development] stefan.buddle:
I think I may be a little too high to find the download link....
[Vibrant Android Development] irockstar661:
Its the truth isn't it?

Hey KRYLON or JELLETTE, the sombionix.inf file you want removed, what exactly is the modifications and will this put a hamper on this build? How will it now be effected?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] irockstar661:
FIXED!

<10 Char>
[Vibrant Android Development] pvspencer22:
In beta 2 using ext4 resulted in a big improvement.
[Vibrant Android Development] stefan.buddle:
yup I am, I shouldn't be using electronics right now
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
the script contains optimizations for the filesystem.
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
It's mostly setting 0777 permissions for convinience and a few other tweaks at startup. I wouldn't worry about it.
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
Where's the RC3 Download? I dont see it posted in the OP. Thanks!:)
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
krylon360 ...will Bionix Frost 2.2.1 allow changeable kernels?
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
It's been pulled. RC4 will be up before long.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
Yes. I have the kernel Eugene did. a Voodoo, DOW, and Dragon kernel ready to go.
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
Cool! I guess I want be getting any work done today. My boss is out of the office:D:D.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Thanks...krylon360 ...I realize SUPERIO kernel is old...any consideration for that? I like the bootsound support to the bootanimation. I like the voodoo kernels too..but I miss the startup sounds....:-(
[Vibrant Android Development] C-4Nati:
Like this rom but when in music player it didn't show any of my music and there was decent amount of lag on this rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
Agreed. reflashed also and followed instructions well. Lag and external sd wasnt showing for me.. Went back to bionix till then.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sincitybronze:
Hi jellette--this ROM seems to have changed quite a bit since the initial release. I was really excited about the (for the most part) stock look with the option of the einherjar launcher and optional framework. Is there any hope of fixing the problems of the beta releases without the theming/fonts/colors and other changes? I would love that but no worries if you have merely decided to take this ROM in another direction. I am very grateful for all the work you guys do.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Anyways...I got Bionix-v 1.2.1 working with SUPERIO kernel...red theme....disabled voodoo...flashed SUPERIO....KA7 modem.....remixed tonicacid's neronix startup sound with DROID original....and added new droid redeye bootanimation...

it sounds awesome in stereo tonicacid...

would like to do the same as such with OP's ROM or krylon's-Frost....to try out 2.2.1
[Vibrant Android Development] pvspencer22:
J

Haven't tried the RC yet but I agree.

Thanks for the update and continuing development.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
I can't reproduce that. RC4 doesn't have that problem. RC3 was like 12 hours ago, which is a long time considering if you have followed me for a while you will notice that I don't sleep and will go from Alpha to final in a few hours sometimes - I don't think I have a copy of RC1,2,3 on my phone anymore - maybe not even on my computer anymore either. Will try to get updated dl up tonight for you guys.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Well who ever releases 2.2.1 first, I'll be ready (:

Sent from my SGH-2
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
I'm just as anxious to try out Frost as you are.

A note about Krylon, we have a good online relationship. We are not enemies. We had an arguement that went public and I apologize to the community for that.
[Vibrant Android Development] grlddawkin:
where is the rom, feening to try it.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
Just wanted to say thanks. The sd mounts fine. everything is good. Thus far a happy camper.
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
Can you add voodoo sound and color?
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
A very genuine and honest post.. You rock dude.
[Vibrant Android Development] irockstar661:
Yes Indeed!
[Vibrant Android Development] georgegreco86:
wheres the RC3 link?

Is it just me, or can no one else find the link to RC3 ..
[Vibrant Android Development] pvspencer22:
Yeah what version is in OP?
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
I got early this morning so idk.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
You guys missed a lot. RC4 up tonight, I think.
[Vibrant Android Development] Big Dog KMc:
Your Question was already asked and answered.
[Vibrant Android Development] gatesmarch123:
I'm very hesitant to flash these new builds....beta2 is so damn smooth.
[Vibrant Android Development] serban954:
Isn't RC3 in the OP? I can see it, idk why you all can't. Just downloaded it.
[Vibrant Android Development] the_scotsman:
That's partly my fault :p

I removed the link when I closed the thread yesterday. Another mod re-opened the thread without realising I had alos removed the link. So I only just added it back a little while ago :)
[Vibrant Android Development] ceoesquad:
Will I get 4g speeds with this rom
[Vibrant Android Development] dizzy21:
I guess I will wait for RC4... :D

Again Thanks Jellette for all you do for us and our Vibrants.
[Vibrant Android Development] coolkid893:
lol no you need a 4g phone modem it lacks the hardware no just the software buy the vibrant 4g an u will lol
[Vibrant Android Development] robavila721:
Too nice
[Vibrant Android Development] Incredible_Culp:
im new to the Vibrant community..

.. how do i turn off the voodoo lagfix?

(when the op is referring to the "voodoo has to be turned off" is that meaning the red/orange recovery screen has to be turned off? and back to green?)
[Vibrant Android Development] lolcopter:
with most roms, if you hold the power button for a few seconds a shutdown menu will pop-up... then you can boot into red recovery from there. once in red recovery, go to the voodoo lagfix menu, then select disable. the system will reboot and repartition everything back to RFS...

you can test to see if voodoo is off with programs like quadrant... or just boot back into red recovery, go to the voodoo menu, and it should say "currently disabled, next boot disabled"
[Vibrant Android Development] serban954:
Oh ok thats explains it. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] uurrnn:
Wait so there are no bugs at all?
[Vibrant Android Development] Incredible_Culp:
Great! thank you very much :D
[Vibrant Android Development] dvno:
I'm with ya... I just flashed back to beta2 after RC1 for a couple hours.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Any 2.2 will work.

Brightness can be adjusted through the power control widget.
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
quick somewhat noob question:

What are the real main differences between 2.2 and 2.2.1 ?

Anything really major at all?
[Vibrant Android Development] dligon:
the difference will amaze and bewilder you.
[Vibrant Android Development] hurrpancakes:
I would like to know as well. Searching google hasn't really shown anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
For anyone interested, I tested Glasstopia and it works just fine with the exception of the Gingerbread Keyboard for some reason.
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
It's not significant but it's better. If you're asking it's prob nothing you can appreciate. There's no crazy new features if that's what you're asking.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sincitybronze:
Force close with bluetooth too
[Vibrant Android Development] shockjock:
My battery seems to be getting hot when i turned on the navigation. The temp was 112F
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
Thanks for catching that. I got the brightness FC fixed, I'll look into the bluetooth now.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Say you fixed brightness fc?
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
I will add to the op later but I forgot to mention that this project would not have been possible without the "schooling" untermench put me through over the last week and without a new compiling tip from sombionix!
[Vibrant Android Development] funeralthirst:
i'm on the dead horse kernel with voodoo. do i just flash over it? disable voodoo first?
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
Yup, here. Still need to find the bluetooth issue though.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Thanks MWBehr. Gonna start doing some hacking and chopping on this too.
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
Major changes to the BluetoothSettings.smali....this may take some time :D
[Vibrant Android Development] irockstar661:
How do i push this? I cant delete the setting.apk and after copy and paste it overwrites and does nothing....er should i reboot?

sent from the galaxy of Loki 1.3
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
adb push Settings.apk /system/app/

If you copied over it with root explorer, a restart will probably get it done as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] vapotrini:
yes, reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
Pushed setting apk using root explorer in system/apps rebooted and it sent my phone in a talespin vibrating and bootlooping.:( Is the setting apk posted the correct one? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Try this one. It has all of the fixes MWBehr did and I fixed a small bug in the sdcard settings that no one would have ever caught lol :D MWBehr is working on bluetooth now. Zip below is working just fine for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Arkasai:
I wouldn't worry about 4G speeds even with a '4G' radio. So far it doesn't seem like 4G speeds exist anywhere in the US, actual legit 4G anyway, there's tons of what carriers are calling '4G' but none of it really is. There aren't a ton of real world tests out there, but what I've seen doesn't look very promising. Engadget's review of the Atrix for example, the speeds were abysmal, well below what you'd consider average 3G speeds. Sure the network is young and probably not fully implemented, but I'm sure people are expecting an actual increase in speeds regardless.

I'm going to refuse buying into this pseudo 4G era for as long as I can, sure it's going to be faster than 3G eventually, but I want my next phone to really feel like a leap into the future. I get the feeling LTE advanced wont be rolled out for another 2-3 years though, so I might cave in in the next year or so for a first generation LTE phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] Smartassassin:
Unfortunately this Rom is bug free....sorry to disappoint..;)
[Vibrant Android Development] uurrnn:
About to flash now and test this myself.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
Beta2 has better battery. But I like the overall look of rc3.
[Vibrant Android Development] mulcahyd:
As soon as I see RC4 im going to flash it. I hope its solid and stable. And enough to use as daily driver. All you guys doing a hell of a job for creating these roms.
[Vibrant Android Development] badazz_monkey:
Just flashed the RC3 and I found one bug. When I go to contacts list then click on one of my contact picture, the sub menu show 2 mms icon.
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
So, I see a case of this wiping the external SD, so ill make sure I pull it out before I flash. Has anyone had any cases of this wiping the Internal SD?

Jellett, can you let us know if RC4 (out later tonight) wipes the internal or external SD?

--just dont want to get caught of guard and loose anything.

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] gatesmarch123:
Just curious why it's restricted to Eugene's kernel? I must have my dragon 5.0!
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
I know but I still love that cool little blue "4g" that pops up :)

And I have to say when that comes on my downloads come pretty darn fast. May not be 4G and certainly not WiFi, but noticeably quicker than 3g..
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
For clarification. This DOES NOT wipe your external SD. All of your contents are still there. It's just the framework for the 4G doesn't support 2 SD's out of the box.

This is where Eugene and I were torn, give people External and loose 16GB of space, or give people Internal and loose external storage.

We chose Internal.

If you take your ExternalSD out, put it in an adapter, pop it in your reader, you will see all your contents are still there.

This is what I have been spending long hours into the night trying to fix.

The frameworks for 2.2 and 2.2.1 are 100% different so I can't just do a diff and copy over the changes.

It takes an entire recode.

I've got it now so both Internal and External show on the PC when plugged in, however only internal mounts, and only internal shows as both internal and external in SD & Storage Settings.

So, almost there, just not yet.

But, your externalSD contents are still there. just the phone can't see them
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
Dragon 5.0 is a 2.2 kernel. This is a 2.2.1 rom. I believe his older kernels may work as they were 2.2.1 based.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
The Kernel included has mounting adjustments for the 4G ports. Others do not. You can flash another kernel, sure, however, you will loose access to your Internal SD. (No it will not be wiped, just the phone wont see it.)
[Vibrant Android Development] jpelagio11:
Im also having problems installing zips. Keep getting the android exclamation. I have to pull the battery and restart to get file to install

Currently running ______________! (<----Insert Rom Name Here)
[Vibrant Android Development] jpelagio11:
Thanks for clarifying. Ill check it out wen I get home. So even going to files and ext_sd it wont show either?

Currently running ______________! (<----Insert Rom Name Here)
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
correct. There isn't anything in the frameworks telling the system to look for a external SD...well in the 4G's case it would be internal
[Vibrant Android Development] dawgboy1783:
very nice rom great work devs,only issue so far is FC on horizontal screen calbration:confused:.
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
cool, thanks for the explanation :)
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
"I've got it now so both Internal and External show on the PC when plugged in, however only internal mounts, and only internal shows as both internal and external in SD & Storage Settings."

I like your way better. I was actually confused the first time I hooked my phone up and saw the two different drives appear. I'm used to it now but this will be a welcome change.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Man, you dug deep into this thing! Would have taken me 70 years to find that.
[Vibrant Android Development] henreeg:
@jellette

i'm going to flash and try this ROM out.

just a questions-

i took out the clock from the notification bar using

this

method. I'm almost certain that i can't do it on this ROM. Can you come up with something like this please?
[Vibrant Android Development] DCrozier28:
But you are still able to find the content of your external its just in a different folder correct?? Atleast that is what i understood from different threads.
[Vibrant Android Development] web_ninja:
I like this ROM... had lag issues until i yanked the external SD. lag isn't bad then? everything else works fine really like the theme.. keep up the good work...can't wait for RC4.....:D
[Vibrant Android Development] DCrozier28:
So I have kind of a dumb question. When we flash our Vibrants we download the files to the internal sd. But the 4g has only an external card. So is the process of flashing on the 4g gonna change?? What will that look like??
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
it will change. CWM will need to be built for it, and you would flash just as you would on any Non-SGS device.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
No. There is nothing that mounts the ext dir. It will come up as "F/Vold: Skipping unknown /sdcard/external_sd (ture,false)" in the lolcat.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
Hey that did help. Wierd.
[Vibrant Android Development] web_ninja:
well i figured that the external wasn't showing up so why use it?... lol and the lag cleared up... ya crazy huh!!:rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] dawgboy1783:
:D just making a little humor jellette..LOL!!!! I flashed with voodoo disabled,rebooted,set up settings,rebooted and enabled voodoo and duuuude! it flows like water,very very smooth very nice work man!!!!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
I'm digging the black, indigo, purple.
[Vibrant Android Development] DCrozier28:
Hmmm...guess im gonna have to learn new ways of flashing. I have always had a BB until i got the vibrant when it came out so I only know this way.
[Vibrant Android Development] tsiah:
Can I safely flash from another rom (running Auxura now) or do I need to odin back to stock before flashing this?

Does this rom support a FFC?
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Hey Krylon, did he ever answer you about what he would need to do a cwm for 4G?
[Vibrant Android Development] Blars1206:
I'm sorry if I missed this if it was already asked, but does this kernal have BLN?
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Nope

10char.
[Vibrant Android Development] Blars1206:
Crap. That is one of my favs. Thanks for answering Cashy.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
No problem :D You should still give it a whirl if you have time! You'll enjoy
[Vibrant Android Development] Blars1206:
I probably still will. I just put Loki with Jocelyn's new kernel on and I'm diggin it so far. But I always break down to try the newest ones.
[Vibrant Android Development] mulcahyd:
So is rc3 stable so far. ?
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
I'm likin it.. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Dattack:
Not sure why I am experiencing a lot of lag on this ROM. I followed all the instructions and it is taking me about 30 minutes to scan my SD card.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
Yep.
[Vibrant Android Development] lightninbug:
Im holding off flashing RC3, till next update. Like he said he doesnt sleep, for all we know we may see RC4 and then RC5 tonight. Best dev we have on the Vibrant forum!
[Vibrant Android Development] Incredible_Culp:
haha same here.. i keep refreshing every 30-40 minutes LOL
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
I'm sticking with RC3 for now despite the odd lag. Hopefully RC4 fixes that and the SD mounting issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] C-Reactor:
Just wonderin'

Since RC3 uses Eugene's 4G Kernel, does that mean we can't use the Voodoo lag fix?

There's a post just under the OP with a link to the KB1 kernel with Voodoo Lag Fix, but I'm hesitant to install it out of fear of messing up. I read somewhere in the OP that the kernel is not exchangeable...

So the questions are: Is Voodoo included in RC3? If not, Can I flash the KB1 under the OP? and, If I do, will I lose that lovely "H"?

Sorry for the N00B question!
[Vibrant Android Development] tsiah:
Nevermind the first question... I didn't read the OP thoroughly :o That's what I get for scanning!

BUT my question about the FFC still stands :D
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Items in the second post are only for the other items in the second post, which are pre RC and hybrid builds.
[Vibrant Android Development] C-Reactor:
Voodoo or any other Lagfix

Thank you for answering so fast! So what about the lagfix? Does that not work anymore or is it no longer necessary?
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
Sol... what you're saying is the SD Card is not visible using this ROM... Still sounds pretty broken to me, and should REALLY be made clear in the first post. Thankfully I read threads because I've learned not to trust glowing descriptions in first posts. I certainly won't be installing this any time soon.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
Its just the External that isn't viewable/mountable. Internal mounts fine. Don't let that hold you up from flashing.
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Some of us have had some serious lag on RC3. And I'm coming from stock.
[Vibrant Android Development] genaropr:
Running well up to now, only downside is the external sd not mounting but still good rom :eek:
[Vibrant Android Development] Shaul305:
sounds like me. Heavy lag. going from ODIN to RC3. but Trigger 2.6 is flawless.

this sucks big time, i couldnt import my contacts saved on my external. :( even when moved to the internal no dice.
[Vibrant Android Development] web_ninja:
Remove the external SD believe it or not , it speeds it up...;)

Krylon put in the OP that if you remove the external SD It helps the the lag.... i dont use mine for much. it actually helps with the lag..... at least until RC4 or RC5 comes out to fix the issue? Try it i'm not lying t helps... lol
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
seriously, how man times are people going to post about the same thing......
[Vibrant Android Development] web_ninja:
ROFLMAO!! ya know until this thread reaches 30,000 posts....:eek:
