[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Not trolling at all, however this is very stable. Only real issues at this point are no recovery and no voodoo [for us]. Only thing that remains to be seen is battery life, which I am testing and will report on. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] epakrat75:
Going from Alpha to Beta in one day! Impressive. So, you've applied the calling fix Eugene was going to supply already? No need to use the toggle widget? Keep it up. :cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I have to track down the file Eugene spoke of. For now you have to use the toggleheadset widget. But a permanent fix is eminent. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] dligon:
is the toggle headset in the market or what.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
It is included with the rom already. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] mr.orange303:
This thing is close to being a daily driver for me. Close.
[Vibrant Android Development] turbosix:
google maps can use cell towers to guesstimate where you are. facebook places seems to be able to do this as well.

so you've got location... except its ~1500-2200m accuracy
[Vibrant Android Development] stevencpoynter:
I just checked out the fugu tweaks in the i9000 forum (assuming where it originated), anyway, so i'm assuming there was a performance boost with applying it in this rom even if it's gingerbread based?

From what I read it was geared for pre gingerbread based roms as the tweak was pulled from 2.3.2.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
You are correct. The files were compiled from source and are geared towards enhancing pre-gingerbread roms. However, this is 2.3.2 and those were compiled from 2.3.3 source so while there is improvement it is more than likely not noticeable at all. But still, latest and greatest... ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] gatesmarch123:
If a leaked Vibrant Gingerbread rom is required to get source for GPS to work, I'm guessing we'll never have working GPS because Samsung sucks cheesy balls and probably doesn't plan on giving the Vibrant Gingerbread.

If I could make my battery last like "Factory fresh Galaxy S" This would be my Daily Driver! Ugh I don't know what i'm doing wrong.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
You probably aren't doing anything wrong. I have an auto task killer running which I think really helps the situation. I believe DonutYankee was saying he's noticed that maps DRAINS the battery bad in the background, but with an auto task killer that shouldn't ever be a problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Which one are you using exactly?
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I dropped $2 on "Advanced Task Killer." It seemed to work better for me than ATK.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Could you post a screen or tell me your settings?

PS: Thanks for helping me out, your work is appreciated, believe me!
[Vibrant Android Development] jRi0T68:
I got pissed off at all the crap running all the time and use Titanium Backup to freeze a bunch of stuff that I'm 90% sure I won't use. Seems to be a huge improvement for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Sure thing. I have Advanced Task Killer set up to start right away. I unchecked the boxes for notification icon and auto kill notice. Then I checked to the box to enable auto-kill. Only app i put on ignore list is Gtalk. You can leave those two boxes I unchecked checked if you want. I just did that so I wouldn't even know it was running. Hope this helps. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
i just flashed this, there was a problem.. it keeps rebooting and linda as a chimpmunk is on everytime with rainbow thing....

i'm re-downloading the rom to make sure the downloading wasn't the wrong part :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
What rom were you coming from when you flashed? And was voodoo enabled or disabled?
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
I ODIN'd to stock before flashing, and if you still want to know which one i was on..

it was Sweet Honey which i guess had voodoo enabled as default.

Hey a suggestion for people like me...

You should put how many MB the download file is..

sometimes my computer auto-stops downloads and in that time its good to have that.

Edit: apprantely it also wiped my internal SD Card... whoopie.

READ BOTTOM POST GOOD RESULTS :D
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
okay, i gave it another shot...

It worked this time :D

Idk what caused the loop last time, but it works now... and my internal sd was erased... i have a backup on my computer.. but its like a few months old :( better than nothing?

Nice rom, i'm waiting the 15 minutes you told me to before i do anything :P
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
When i use the camera, its the double rainbow again :( how can i fix this?

Edit: nvm, i did somethings to fix it.
[Vibrant Android Development] funeralthirst:
flashed this, everything was fine, but couldn't get into recovery (just got 'double rainbow'), then tried to play angry birds seasons which restarted the phone and broke swype...
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Both of these are addressed in the OP.

Every now and then this might happen, but rebooting my phone has always gotten rid of it.

As for Angry Birds crashing you really need an auto task killer to run this. Not sure about swype, yours is the first report of it breaking.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Could I flash a boot animation from 2.2 on here?
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I don't believe this kernel has bootanimation support. Don't remember seeing anything on it in the GB Voodoo thread.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
kay, thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] qwertyuiop74123:
this is best looking EDT ROMs yet

all the other are dark and weird looking!

keep this one going

Thats cause we're dark and weird by nature. :-P

[Vibrant Android Development] avio07:
How stable is this ? Any chance of touchwiz 4 coming soon?
[Vibrant Android Development] andROIDS:
Seems pretty stable for me so far. It was a little laggy at first, but seems to get smoother as time goes by. I don't know if everyone experiences this, but that's how its been running for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] K5C5S5:
+1 Rom is more stable after running a few hours. Some minor bugs but nothing too serious. Memory leak, which isn't too bad if you follow the op instructions and gps being broken are the major issues.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
TouchWiz 4?

ask Samsung.

;)

:D
[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
What about 3D? Do 3D games and benchmarks work fine now?
[Vibrant Android Development] andROIDS:
I played a couple of games that were 3D but not real intensive 3D and they worked fine. I haven't tried Gameloft style 3D games though. I heard that by freeing all ram before playing a 3D game it works.
[Vibrant Android Development] TR88:
Any chance on voodoo sound and color? Btw, I'm loving the rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] iTylerA:
Played with this for a while last night. I love it. The new features that GB brings are amazing. Waiting impatiently for there to be a stable fully working release so I can make this my daily driver.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Unfortunately those features require kernel source to implement. So looks like we gotta just sit tight til Samsung decides to grace us with some official Vibrant Gingerbread love (and then wait up to 60 days after that! >_< )

Glad you are enjoying it. This gingerbread is kind of a strange breed. I tried to implement a memory fix to make it stable, but for some reason the numbers don't stick. Been some discussion on it in the i9k forums to resolve this. Hopefully that will get worked which will make this very stable. As for GPS, I'm convinced that it will NEVER work until we get our own Vibrant specific leak... which hopefully will be soon.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
Great work Whitehawk, yes, hopefully we'll get that 2.3 leak soon. If we do, I will have some respect for Samsung.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Update coming guys. RAM issue has been fixed (thanks to darkyy). This will move this up to RC1 since the only issue really at this point is gps.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
Does that mean that 3D games will work fine?
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
Does that mean the 3D gaming issue is addressed as well? :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Yes it should. Just to be sure though what are a few free games you would recommend for me to test on?
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
Sims 3 that came with the phone is a good candidate if you still have the files.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
Gun Bros is free on the market but it takes a while to download. I guess the Nenamark1 and An3DBench XL benchmarks should be a good indicator of good performance.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Any eta?
[Vibrant Android Development] iTylerA:
Between the release of the Vibrant 4G, and the acquisition of T-Mobile by AT&T. I don't feel there will be too much Vibrant support fro the carrier/manufacturer. Would it be possible to resolve the GPS issues with i9000 source when it comes out? I'd love Vibrant specific source on my phone, but I'm not sure how realistic that is anymore.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
More than GPS I'm looking forward more to Voodoo sound, color, and BLN. Even when its working at its best the Vibrant GPS is subpar so I've already given up on it.
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
That's not gonna finalize for another year. In addition, the most immediate impact is going to be for the newer phones (newest). It takes man power and time to covert the spectrum used by T-Mobile to AT&T. Most likely, AT&T will leave TMo as it is because of the amount of work involved to convert one carrier to another. Even if AT&T decided to utilize Tmobile's infrastructure, it will no doubt take another year or two to convert it all.

On top of that, this merger has yet to pass the anti-trust regulation review. monopoly doesn't sit well with U.S. politicans.
[Vibrant Android Development] iTylerA:
Very true, but that still leaves the present issue of the current T-Mobile ceasing support for our phones. They no longer sell the Vibrant and only have them for warranty purposes. I feel as if any future development is going to be focused towards the Galaxy S 4G which will leave us using source from either that, or the i9000
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Within the hour? ;)

And it looks like 3D games are working great. I'm not much of a phone gamer so you hardcore phone gamers might feel differently. I ran Gun Bros with Xscope and the market running in the background just fine. I got an average of 46 fps on nenamark with stuff running in the background.
[Vibrant Android Development] jRi0T68:
Awesome! What's the procedure for moving from Beta 3 to RC1? Will I need to odin to jfd, or can I do it through Rom Manager?
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Using androidscreencast (so you can see recovery behind the double rainbow) you will be able to flash RC1 right over the top of Beta-3. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
This is great. With this update I can finally recommend this as a daily driver. Who would have thought a month ago.
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
Thanks man! RC1 will be my first dive into ginerbread. I was waiting for the 3D to be fixed, and it looks like it's just the right time! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Wow I'm proud of you white, you did a great job! Wow can't believe were already at RC1 (soon to be)
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Sorry everyone it's going to be a little longer before I can push the update out. Hopefully by tonight...
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
no sweat little guy.

You've done a great job thus far.

;)
[Vibrant Android Development] andROIDS:
So White, did you ever think that you were gonna be a hero to so many Vibrant owners? Thanks and good job.
[Vibrant Android Development] dligon:
is wifi calling and battery life and ffc good on rc1
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Well worth the wait. It's working Gingerbread on a Vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] andROIDS:
My battery life has been pretty damn good on Beta-3, so I don't see it being any worse.
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
I hope battery life is better than cm7 because thats whats making want to flash this.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
And better than the Miui Build..
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Hmm would Darkyy's gingerbread 10.0 help any?
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
And wonderful...Screencast won't run for me now. Perfect timing. Anyone know of anything that can cause issues with Screencast? It worked fine for me last week.

EDIT: What I mean here is the PC end of it, attempting to launch the Java web app won't work and Java says the application can't be opened. I've changed nothing on my PC and followed the procedure just as the last time I used Screencast. Anyone know any fixes for this?
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
type "adb devices" and you'll see it start the daemon or w/e. Then it will work. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
His gingerbread doesn't utilize anything else that mine doesn't already. He did have the RAM fix and was kind enough to share it.
[Vibrant Android Development] faldiin:
Touchwizless??

Any chance to see this rom drop with out Touchwiz? Or can I remove it with out destroying the rom?

Thank you

Faldiin
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
I uninstalled and re-installed the SDK and it works now (did that before reading this tip). Thanks for the tip, I'll remember that. There were issues with my SDK install in general, as somehow some files went missing.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Sweet! Just asking
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Gingerbread stock launcher was included last time...so that should take care of that.
[Vibrant Android Development] faldiin:
Awesome, Thank you for the info. I was going to update to Beta 3 today and saw RC1 incoming. I thought I would wait. Thank you again.

Faldiin
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:

You should see a major improvement with memory in this build. Included a few other minor updates as well. Goodnight and enjoy. :)

[Vibrant Android Development] Soldi3rxx:
So the only known issues is gps not working?
[Vibrant Android Development] ugonnax:
How would I go about flashing from this rom? Does it have recovery ?
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
Is there mobile AP in Gingerbread?
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
Post Quadrant scores on RC1.
[Vibrant Android Development] iTylerA:
It has recovery, but you can't see it on the phone screen. Use Screencast to use the recovery, then flash like any other ROM
[Vibrant Android Development] ugonnax:
What is screencast
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/

Follow instructions. You will need to first install latest Java and a Java SDK (Java FX 1.3 SE). Then as in the instructions install the Android SDK and let it install the packages that come with that. After all that you simply use the link above. Be warned all this installing takes some time and as far as I know you'll need to register with Oracle (it's quick) to download a Java SDK.

Screencast lets you see what your phone is displaying, or in our case with recovery on these ROMs what it's trying to display. With your phone plugged into USB with screencast running you will see the recovery in the screencast window on your PC even though your phone's display will be showing the magical effects of an acid trip, allowing you to use your phone in recovery as normal.
[Vibrant Android Development] avio07:
is there anyway to get original samsung music app back? the miui music doesnt have music controls in the task drop down menu.
[Vibrant Android Development] ugonnax:
Oh kinda nervous. Not near a computer for a while and I might want to change roms
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
White, you can update the OP.

I Just ran RC1, and through the Google sign in set up I didn't experience a double rainbow. It's when the launcher load there's a 1 second flicker on the screen.
[Vibrant Android Development] avio07:
how do I update to latest RC1? when i boot into recovery all it does is show me rainbow screen.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Put it on your sd card, and use rom manager to flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
I noticed something AMAZING!

The phone can now play HD FLASH video smoothly, it lags like crazy on 2.2

Bug: Although I noticed that Flash object now doesn't accept inputs as nicely as they used to, the object will flash whenever it is touched, and sometime not register touches.

Edit: I know why now because those videos are mobile optimized! lol.

Bug2: Mkv files doesn't play (display double rainbow) when using mVideoplayer.
[Vibrant Android Development] yvliew:
this is great! Finally a memory fix! Hope it's good!! But gps still not work, can this really be "RC" standard? not trolling... just thought....
[Vibrant Android Development] 啊喔鹅咦呜鱼:
GPS still doesn't work on RC1?
[Vibrant Android Development] Alex9090:
Answer to these..
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Yes there is. It's under Settings>Wireless and Network>Tethering>Mobile AP

You can pull the stock music player from the alpha, beta1 or beta2 builds, but if you are listening to music and put the phone to sleep it will reboot or lock up everytime... which is why I removed it.

I get just under 1800 almost everytime.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
i cant run this screen cast thing :/
[Vibrant Android Development] K5C5S5:
Put your phone into recovery, plug into cpu, give cpu a sec to see it and run screen cast. You will see recovery on your cpu screen and can control it with the phone. Make sure you have java5 or higher too.
[Vibrant Android Development] PowSniffer0110:
I know this is off topic a little, but it started when trying to flash this rom. Something happened while flashing and I was 'bricked' :rolleyes: and my only option has been odion. I odined stock KA5 and my laptop died right as finishing. So once again I was 'bricked'. I Flashed Eguenes froyo that does not brick and it would just boot loop. Odined to eugene jk2 froyo and now it works but RECOVERY will NOT let me go into ClockWork. The recovery says "the package is not signed right" or something. I cant flash any roms and the phone is buggy. PLEASE ANY HELP would be appreciative. :confused::( Need to know what to do to be able to play with my phone again.

Oh and it erased EVERYTHING I've had... which was a lot. :eek:
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I'm sorry your SD card got erased. There is always a chance that can happen when flashing anything. It's always good practice to backup anything valuable you have before flashing.

As for not being able to flash anything through recovery. This is because you Odin'd a stock rom with 3e recovery. Stock 3e recovery prevents access to clockwork recovery. You need to add the modified 3e recovery found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833423 which bypasses signature checking.
[Vibrant Android Development] PowSniffer0110:
Thank you. Will try mod and write back asap
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
Flashed this last night. Battery seems a bit improved over last time. I'll clear battery stats tonight to get a better picture of the battery life this week. Still not sure on RAM.
[Vibrant Android Development] PowSniffer0110:
Worked like a charm! Thank you hawkx. So Im going on a limb and reflashing this. Is it supposed to do a speed up version of lindas voice? All I hear are chipmunk voices! Thanks... :eek:

EDIT: Got it. Nice rom
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Haha yea, the chipmunks is normal. You can check out the voodoo section in the OP. Has a bunch of info regarding voodoo with this rom. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] :
It didn't work for me :/
[Vibrant Android Development] DreamcastDC:
Can't wait till this becomes final.
[Vibrant Android Development] adamcooks:
For all those having issues with screencast....

go to where you have your adb located in cmd prompt, either in your root if you moved it or program/android/android-sdk\tools.

type " adb devices " and make sure that adb sees your device

you must first start the daemon, then run the screencast and it will work
[Vibrant Android Development] ZombieDude00:
Not to call a spade a spade but I don't think you can truly call this an Release Candidate without some sort of functional GPS. Still a beta in my eyes. Keep the good dev coming.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
I was wondering about that too.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
If you want a working GPS you really shouldn't be relying on a Vibrant. You should be using something like a Garmin. Hopefully we will get our own leak soon so we can get GPS up and running. It will never work until we have Vibrant Gingerbread drivers.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
ily worked like a charm Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] K5C5S5:
Haven't seen anything about wifi calling on this rom, is there an apk out for it that I missed or does it not exist on GB at all yet?
[Vibrant Android Development] jRi0T68:
RC1 is good so far. Memory improvements are quite evident.

Good stuff. Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
How's battery life?
[Vibrant Android Development] jRi0T68:
Too early to tell. Gotta give these things a couple days.
[Vibrant Android Development] ZombieDude00:
considering all other flavors of android on the vib they all have a working GPS. True its had its problems but it does "work" this purely doesn't work.
[Vibrant Android Development] andROIDS:
Have you tried this method? Does it work?
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
this is a new OS, needs new drivers....

just like b4 we got a vib froyo leak, GPS didn't work on froyo roms.

Let's just hope sammy does release Gingy for the Vibby. :D

:(
[Vibrant Android Development] chkn:
I don't care what you call it. I like it.I can read that it does not have any gps, and I know why it doesn't.

# no homo love for the rom

[Vibrant Android Development] jRi0T68:
I did, since screencast was being retarded. I was already on Beta 3, though.

Flashing through rom manager worked fine for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] andROIDS:
Cool. I will give it a shot. Thanks. So could we flash a different rom through rom manager then? It that I want to since I have some gingy on my phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] jRi0T68:
I'll let someone more knowledge than me answer that. I should also add that when I flashed through rom manager, I was prepared to have to odin to stock if I screwed up.
[Vibrant Android Development] ciervo5389:
Gah the only things keeping me from this ROM is the GPS!!!! I love it!
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
Has anyone else gotten mkv to play with gibgerbread?

It seems graphic driver overall is still sonewhat buggy.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I ~think~ changing video player from "false" to "true" in the build.prop might enable mkv playback, but I know for a fact that breaks avi playback which is why it's disabled.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Is there voodoo sound in this?
[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
Its been answered multiple times. There is no voodoo sound or color or BLN. That needs the source for the kernel and we dont have that. Not until there is a Vibrant 2.3 leak, if there is ever one.
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
So far so good. Ran it all day. RAM issue is gone finally. Good to go as a daily driver if one doesn't need GPS.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
I'm going to try it now since the issue is fixed (:
[Vibrant Android Development] andROIDS:
So with the memory leak getting fixed, should we still run a task killer?
