[Vibrant General] Wes33:
Yes yes It's pretty much accepted that teamwiskey is the most legit rom for the vibrant... for froyo... for now.

But cyanogenmod is pretty much the most legit mod for most every other phone out there. (my brother even runs the nightly of cm7 on his myt4g and it's solid as a rock!)

This is a step in the right direction and I'd be way excited to have the option of cyanogen on my vibrant! I can't wait till it's stable enough for me to take the plunge!

Come on guys, the argument seems dumb. More options are good! Competition is good!
[Vibrant General] shovelhead83:
I had it on my phone a long time ago. It was buggy. Might have to pull it out the drawer and play with it. Thanks for responding!
[Vibrant General] pegasus912:
Cyanogenmod for the vibrant is the new duke nukem, Ive given up on it. I used to love it on my mt3g but Ive got to be realistic, odds are we wont see it anytime soon. Regardless, I appreciate the efforts on the part of the developers.
[Vibrant General] :
this isnt new. i tried it a week ago. I wish it was usable but a week ago it wasnt. it was buggy and i lost my settings on every reboot. anyone tried this lately with success?
[Vibrant General] C-4Nati:
Im convinced gingerbread will not ever be available on our vibrants.
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
ummm thats where your wrong buddy, this is being worked on efficiently.

So dont be so quick to write this project off
[Vibrant General] PSP_Hacker:
You're part of the reason why we're stuck using Samsung's ****ty builds. Do you know anything about Android? Team Whiskey did not bring you Froyo, Samsung did. All Team Whiskey does is make these existing Samsung builds run better. We had Froyo before the official Froyo release because we were getting leaked builds from Samsung. I'm just trying to emphasize that we are still using Samsung software. If it was so easy to build from the AOSP source for the Vibrant, (if you even know what AOSP means) then we would've had a Froyo ROM running months before anything Froyo-related came from Samsung.

tl;dr version:

Team Whiskey, Axura, Trigger, etc. basically any ROM you find on this board except for MIUI and CyanogenMod = SAMSUNG BUILT FIRMWARE

CyanogenMod, MIUI, and that possibly upcoming AOSP ROM from Team Whiskey = 100% OFFICIAL ANDROID, built completely from source, absolutely NO Samsung (except for necessary stuff like video codecs and drivers, etc.)

and btw: AOSP = Android Open Source Project
[Vibrant General] sl0play:
I have a recent nightly of CM7 on the wifes MT3GS and it works great!
[Vibrant General] PSP_Hacker:
It already runs. We have Team Whiskey's experimental dual-booting Gingerbread, and CyanogenMod7 for the GT-I9000.

The only bugs left are ones that affect every AOSP ROM to come to the Vibrant (videos are not GPU-accelerated, camera has low color saturation, video capture isn't working at all, SD mounting issues, etc.) I just can't wait til' we have a fully functioning AOSP-based ROM (CyanogenMod, MIUI, something from Team Whiskey, I don't care) that will fully take advantage of our hardware.
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
+1 bruh bruh
[Vibrant General] roffee:
Wonderful！！！
[Vibrant General] :
I tried CM7 on my vibrant last night and all I got was E:misc partition not found or something like that and I followed instructions exactly as they said.
[Vibrant General] DMDrew812:
it was involved but I got my Vibrant running CM7. I couldnt get the network to fly properly until I came across this gem:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11179758&postcount=13

I used the KB1_modem.zip from the sticky, extracted the modem.bin to the internal storage root (/sdcard/) and did the console command he mentioned. toggled 2G Network Only on and off, then the test-text I tried to send myself went through. woot!

now to see if it makes it through the day tomorrow o_o
[Vibrant General] Holeblocker:
I don't get all this hate/fanboy-ism over "FREE" Roms.

Just enjoy whats being released and stop ****ting over other people efforts :)
[Vibrant General] All~G1:
You should be President of the world! My thoughts exactly.
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Thank you, someone finally understands, and the people who talk the most **** actually know nothing
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
you guys need to read directions thoroughly.

I've had CM7 on my Vibrant weeks ago.

plus if u want a data connection, you have to flash the vibrant modem in a special way.

extract the modem.bin out of whatever modem.zip you want.

next place it in your internal sdcard

after you have installed CM7

open terminal emulator and type:

su
busybox dd if=/sdcard/modem.bin of=/dev/block/mtdblock5

enjoy your mobile internet connection.

:D

in its current stage.

THIS ROM is not meant for n00bs.

If you can't get it to work, you're a n00b.

no offense, but it's the truth.

:D
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
I didnt see the page that said that, I was in a hurry last night because I was going out so I flashed and left the house.

Lol yea im a noob for that one...but ill take this and put it in the OP
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
awwwhh man there is gone be allot of bricked vibrants im tellin yaaa
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Thats true if people dont read.

This is very easy to do
[Vibrant General] epakrat75:
Fixable soft-bricks definitely, hopefully any hard-bricks will be rather limited. ;)
[Vibrant General] DMDrew812:
So data works but I think my phone thinks its stuck in headset mode, no sound during calls and they can't hear me. Headphones icon by the data/network indicator.

Also had my first random reboot this morning, woot!

Edit: it's one of many things that are backwards like volume and the hotkeys. Plug in a headset to listen to music on the phones speaker, gonna try calling with one plugged in

Editedit yep speaker and mic on phone work with headphones attached but not without, and the sound is way tinny. Work in progress folks lol
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
update to the latest build
[Vibrant General] kawika:
awesome! i cant wait for us to get a stable flashable zip.:D been waiting for Cm7.... crt screen sleep here i come! lol:rolleyes:
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Expect one by next sunday
[Vibrant General] MWBehr:
Just to be clear, no one should expect a bug free rom even then. Codeworkx and company are working hard, but the bugs aren't all going to go away for months probably.

That being said, I believe it's a perfectly usable rom even now if you know how to set it up right and don't care about some of the details.
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Not saying it will be perfect, im just saying expect a newer version by next sunday, not from codeworkx tho
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
scrizz, or anybody, do you get on CM7 the headset icon even if your headset is not connected? i had an app to toggle it on/off but i can't find it

EDIT: nevermind, found it
[Vibrant General] xboarder56:
Does everyones home and search button work? If not im working on a fix :)
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
yea home and search button don't work :) and like in cm6.1 the volumes are upside down...i know is because of the i9k kernel, not a big deal tho
[Vibrant General] xboarder56:
im working on a fix and a updated build :) but im not gonna put it in just yet gonna wait till codeworkxx updates his intiall build to implant it along with the modem fix :)
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
great! i'll be in the lookout for it :D
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
yeah, don't expect a flashable zip from this...

it's a totally different format.

;)

:p
[Vibrant General] xboarder56:
ya it will be a while before a real zip but im gonna try and make on like cm6 build
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
so they just added Vibrant to github according to their twitter account...
[Vibrant General] thegreatcity:
Thats great news, thanks for the heads up.
[Vibrant General] ndwgs:
You my friend, is AWESOME!

All XDA App Users Rock Tapatalkie!!
[Vibrant General] DontJoinTheDarkSide:
camera (picture taking) has also been fixed for the i9000 build.
[Vibrant General] MorphiusFaydal:
You should post the fix here so the people that have flashed can enjoy it, then just make a new version when codeworkx updates his initial (which might not happen for a while)
[Vibrant General] pacotort:

does anybody know how to get sound from earpiece without plugging in the headphone jack. somebody mentioned an app to do that. does anybody know the name of the app.

Thanks

Edit: nvm found it check scrizz's post for link
[Vibrant General] sgtmedeiros:
So from what I've heard if set up correctly the random reboots do NOT occur?
[Vibrant General] tbrar:
If you change wifi sleep policy to never sleep. There are no random reboots
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Yes Sir!! Just flash away
[Vibrant General] plane501:
my wifi does not working .........it stuck on obtaining ip address from my wifi ap

i'm using KB1 modem,any suggestion ?
[Vibrant General] tbrar:
I am using KA7 and its working fine. Did you try locking and unlocking the phone. Due to bug in RIL this could be a problem.
[Vibrant General] plane501:
tried ka7,locking and unlocking the phone .....still can not connect LoL
[Vibrant General] tbrar:
You could try reflashing CM& again as similar thing happened to me when I was using darky's rom. Phone wouldnot connect to wpa2 network but would connect to unsecured network. Any number of flashing kernel or modem didn't help and I had to reflash rom.
[Vibrant General] vibrant2010:
I love this setup..CM 7 and it is pretty stable. I did find a short-term fix for the home button, go to the market and download "Button Saviour" it works and also makes this easier to use as a dd

[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Thanks, Ill add that to the OP Later
[Vibrant General] Quiketaz:
I have installed this amazin ROM, CM7 I feel sooooooooo happy. Thanks a lot every bodey this will be the best amazin AOSP ROM ever.

I am a noob?
[Vibrant General] bbm21:
couple questions

1. how do i change wifi sleep policy

2. is there a headset toggle app

3. is it possible to get the home and search working?
[Vibrant General] Quiketaz:
I have the same issue, I don´t have external sd :(
[Vibrant General] tbrar:
1. Settings > Wireless and networks > Wifi settings >(Options button)>advanced> wifi sleep policy >Never

2. http://code.google.com/p/toggleheadset/downloads/list

3. Button savior in market
[Vibrant General] bbm21:
also i couldn't tell from the op is the camera supposed to work?

Edit:nvm its working
[Vibrant General] nacron:
Played with gingerbread on my olds mt3g yesterday, don't feel compelled to flash cm7 to my vibrant. Looks and feels the same as froyo
[Vibrant General] Senorkabob:
Ummmmm did everything as the directions stated.... stuck on the clockwork mod part where I have to wipe system, cache, data. None of the buttons do anything, and the power button just blanks the screen out.

Anyone?

EDIT: Nm, a reboot back into recovery fixed the issue.
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
Gingerbread just adds some nice smooth animations and improved Open GL. Everything else can be emulated by a theme.

The JIT compiler optimizations are worthless for what they are used for (number comp).
[Vibrant General] sgtmedeiros:
Scrizz has the apk in his post in q and a.

Go to wireless network and settings -menu-advanced settings

No unless you feel like fixing it. Or download button Savior from the market
[Vibrant General] nacron:
Didn't see anything fancy in that build, think it's gingerbread, the icons are there but no tv shut off animation when going sleep
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
actually the tv shut off animation is there when going sleep...i play with it all the time lol xD
[Vibrant General] sgtmedeiros:
They are there for turning on and off lol
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Yea i was talking to xborder last week and me nd him were discussing a GB ROM, i beta tested it and it had some very lighg and heavy bugs at the sametime.

It wasnt realeased, ill probly speak with him later.
[Vibrant General] Senorkabob:
Whats the story with the I9000 vs I9000B builds when it comes to the Vibrant?
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
No need to worry about it.

The I9000 Builds are compatible with our Vibrants and thats all that matters :D
[Vibrant General] Senorkabob:
Thanks!!!! :)

[Vibrant General] McQueefus:
Scrizz, are you still able to get into download mode after cm7? I noticed under known bugs that the commands for reboot recovery and download might not work. If that's the case, can you use the 3 button method? Thanx in advance
[Vibrant General] jrharvey:
Is anyone working on a vibrant specific kernel for CM7? Is that what xboarder is doing? Are there any dev threads showing progress for the vibrant?
[Vibrant General] zharptitza:
Yes, but he said he wasn't going to post it until a few more updates.
[Vibrant General] Quiketaz:
I have the same Issue, but I can go in recovery when the phone is restarting I did the 3 button method and works. For download mode I have to remove battery, sim and memory, but I'm happy with this amazing ROM.
[Vibrant General] eric3043:
will the kb1 modem work with cm7? umm i keep getting an I/O error any ideas what this could bee?Also after i enter the command the Tmobile apn shows up but when i search for networks tmobile doesnt show up only at&t pops up. Then i went too about phone nd say that under baseband it said uknown.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
Can someone list the Vibrant-specific bugs with this?

1. Is GPS working at all?

2. Audio-during calls, during playing music. Does it work with headsets. Headphone jack problems of ANY kind?

3. Stability-Any other crashes or force-closes?

4. Battery Life- I understand its better than the i9000 drain we used to have and worse than stock. Roughly how is it though?

5. Anything else that may be major?

6. Kernels. Only works with the CM kernel, OK. Are there any kernels in development for it? If so, who is working on it?
[Vibrant General] Quiketaz:
1.- Not tested yet, I will test later when leave from office.

2.- Audio is working ok during calls, some random reboot when hang de call.

3.- No FCs, freeze when try to mount sd in PC. Recovery and download mode only manually.

4.- I need test a couple days more but a measure is 10% by hour.

5.- Volume buttons works inverse, and home and search doesn´t work.

6.- No idea.

7.- Cant play Avatar movie due to codecs :(.

8.- Very responsive and fast.

9.- Amazing shutdown effect :D.

Regards.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
So I see this is getting close then.

Fix of the buttons and volume keys is easy enough I beleive from the words of our kernel devs. Though I don't think any of them were working on CM7 kernels due to the froyo source code lol.

My bet is GPS won't work. So fix the GPS, get the 1.4Ghz kernels with voltage control, and this will be a daily driver for me haha. I'll wait a bit more for now though. 2.2 @ 1.4Ghz and voodoo is almost fast enough for my needs.
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
yeah my phone works fine.
[Vibrant General] McQueefus:
thanx, I just got it up and running. Aosp is awesome. It seems a lot faster than ext 4. I think I'm gonna use this as a daily driver for a while.

sent from my vibrant running cm7.
[Vibrant General] PSP_Hacker:
Did you just call AOSP a filesystem? Holy ****, do I need any more proof that the majority of XDA Vibrant posters are dumb and misinformed?

It's just hilarious yet sad how you consider this a "lagfix". You really don't know much about Android if you're not aware that Android is open source... or better yet what open source means.

People like you are the reason why we are still stuck with Samsung's builds.
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
who said it's not running on ext4.

;)
[Vibrant General] BlackHoleDroid:
LOL. This is amazing.
[Vibrant General] MorphiusFaydal:
haha. Indeed... Although I dunno... I checked `mounts` and with the exception of data, all my partitions are still yaffs2. Wonder if that's something that's going to change now that Google's preferred FS is ext4?
[Vibrant General] jel7:
Who shat on your face today??
[Vibrant General] McQueefus:
I wasnt calling aosp a file system. All I was saying was that aosp is nice and that whatever file system it is on seems to be faster then ext. 4. Maybe I worded it wrong but that's no excuse for you to flame and act like a dueche. Who knows it may be on ext. 4 but it seems faster.

sent from my vibrant running cm7.
[Vibrant General] sgtmedeiros:
So I decided that the battery drain wasn't worth the awesome.

Is there a way I can flash a rom I have on SD without using Odin? Old zip files don't work on cwm 3.0

Thanks.
[Vibrant General] allthrottle:
I took the plunge last night and flashed cm7. So far impressed, but weary of potential bugs I run into. Here's what I've found so far;

- GPS doesn't work (icon kicks on for a second in maps but off again and doesn't find my location).

- I have to manually turn on/off headphones with the toggle app, it doesn't auto-detect.(no biggy).

- Battery is worse than stock so far, but I've had worse with i9000 based Dow kernels. 20% drain over the 6 hours I slept. I haven't yet reconditioned or wiped batt stats.

- Wiimote works well! Haven't yet tried any peripherals with it, or my nyko wiimote. Nesoid/snesoid work fine.

- Auto brightness is a little buggy, but not a big deal.

- Lack of home button isn't a bother at all with button Savior.

- Weather + news widget works(genie widget?)

- My internal SD was not wiped. I was able to keep all app/game data and pictures.

- 3g signal seems to have slightly improved, but I am using kb1 modem.bin.

This rom so far seems at LEAST as quick as most other roms I've tried. It could be from the fresh wipe/flash, and that I'm not using them side by side. Not sure about daily driver yet, but I'll update after a day or two. GPS may be a killer for some, it nearly is for me. I'm sure it will be fixed eventually.
[Vibrant General] dligon:
i dont think there is you have to odin back. you cant try but i would warn against it unless you like bootloops and soft bricks possibly more.
[Vibrant General] allthrottle:
Yeah, I believe the cm thread said you'd have to Odin to a stock samsung rom and check the repartition box in Odin to get back to stock.
[Vibrant General] Q-Bert*:
:facepalm:
[Vibrant General] Senorkabob:
Odin'ed back to stock, and then upgraded to the Odin Froyo... Now my data is acting amazingly strange, like not connecting to anything strange.

Before I ODIN again, anyone else have this issue?
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Odin again back to JFD

Re-Root and flash your rom via CWM

Flash your kernal your going to use

Then Flash your modem that works best for you.

Visit my thread "Fresh and Important Info on Modems" located in the list of stickies to help you flash the best modem for you
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Ext4 is the filesystem
[Vibrant General] Generic112:
Was anyone able to update to the newest release (2/22/11)? I tried to update following the GT-I9000 instructions, but I got stuck at the "Vibrant" screen after rebooting, and couldn't access recovery (Had to odin back to stock).

Also, if anyone cares, here is a better fix for the headset problem.

http://vegantab.gojimi.com/download/audiofix.apk

I believe it was developed by Gojimi as a quick fix for a similar headset problem encountered in a cm7 build for the Viewsonic G Tablet. It enables and kills itself automatically each boot so you don't have to worry about using the toggle.
[Vibrant General] Quiketaz:
Access to recovery is a known issue, I'm running (2/22/11) since yesterday. I did a fresh install and now sd mounting is not freezing the phone. Try the steps again. Camera is now working amazing :D
[Vibrant General] HeavyComponent:
Do you guys think this will work for the Vibrant 4G? That would be a GREAT jump if it did.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
I just spoke to xboarder56. He is NO LONGER making a kernel for CM7 for the Vibrant.

He sold his phone and is now developing for the G2.

Can any dev make a kernel for our VIbrants for CM7? One that includes overclocking, voodoo sound, BLN, and ram optimization would be NICE.
[Vibrant General] zharptitza:
That was fast. Didn't he just start?
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
Don't worry, Coolya, one of the people working on CM SGS, is supposed to receive a Vibrant today 2/23/2011.

You can be sure there will be a 100% vib version too...

[Vibrant General] vinnydakid:
This version is absolutely amazing, though!
[Vibrant General] speedysilwady:
Anyone having trouble loading games using fpse on this rom? It used to load games fine on froyo
[Vibrant General] Master&Slave™:
Remember this ROM feels stable, but it isnt... :D
[Vibrant General] speedysilwady:
Yeah I know it's still beta, just curious if its the app, incompatible drivers or something else. I'll probably get a logcat and find out. It's strange because every other app i have that uses 3d has worked fine
[Vibrant General] MadNosf:
Totally agree
[Vibrant General] Generic112:
Tried for the second time to update to the newest update (02/22/11) and I still get stuck at the "Vibrant" splash screen. For people that have been able to update successfully, did you follow the GT-I9000 "Updating to a newer CM7" steps exactly? If you did, any idea on why mine fails to boot afterward, as I've followed the steps perfectly twice but I get stuck with the same result (Do I need to perhaps wipe data or something extra?).
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
in the steps it tells you to wipe data, but don't worry, the team now has a vibrant to work with and already fixed the buttons so a new update should be out in the next couple of days :)
[Vibrant General] Quiketaz:
I just follow step by step. Try oding the Iniital Kernel

After apply again the initial 20-02-2011

When you boot fine, do the steps for update 02/22/11.

If something doesn´t work a fresh install could help.
[Vibrant General] allthrottle:
I don't understand anything posted on the cyanogen cmsgsteam twitter, but I read something along the lines of - [samsung_ kernel_android] some love to the vibrant.

Anyone know what that means for us?
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
that they are building for the vibrant
[Vibrant General] Quiketaz:
They are building CM7 for Vibrant. I can confirm that, one developer has received a Vibrant phone. So we need to have patient.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
How do you know they fixed the buttons already? Where can I find that update! O.o

EDIT: FOund it!!!! Twitter. They fixed the Audio jack and ALL the buttons!!!!!!!! The CM team is uploading the new kernel as we speak. Should be up in the next few hours. Can't wait to flash :D
[Vibrant General] thegreatcity:
So what outstanding issues are left?
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
Not too much honestly.

- You can't get into recovery/download without 3 buttons (so cant from inside the ROM)

- Problems switching between 2G and 3G (i dont use data though!)

- Will drain battery faster since debugging is enabled

- WiFi has to stay on or it may crash. No sleep policy

- Sd mount via USB is working just for internal SD.

- Compass (works not at 100%)

- Video playback may be choppy with some formats

Most things such as WiFi, GPS, Data, Signal, Texting, Camera, music work. As soon as the new Vibrant kernel is posted, im jumping to CM7 for daily.
[Vibrant General] pacotort:
yea me too!! cant wait to flash :D
[Vibrant General] Generic112:
Ok, so I finally got my phone to boot after running the update by flashing the initial kernel through odin, but now wifi is broken (It just gives an error). Anyone know what could have caused this? My only guess would be differences between the initial kernel and the one packed in the update (If their are any). I know that since the vibrant version is being worked on, people will just say to wait (And I probably should/will if that's what it takes), but I'd really just like to know why my phone seems to hate CM7 so much (A fix for wifi would only be a bonus).
