CNN today is reporting that at least 40% of all electronic shipments world wide will be stopped or delayed because of the earthquake and nuke situation in Japan. They are also predicting a price rise due to supply and demand of electronic componets ie flash memory and CPUs. I dont know if this will in any way afect the xoom but its a interesting devopment and worth thinking about!.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
I have been thinking about that for a couple of days now. I don't want to sound insensitive but "luckily" a lot of electronics comes from China nowadays, and only the high-quality stuff is from Japan. I feel very sorry for the Japanese and I am sure the "waves" will hit the rest of the world very soon! Better stock up on electronics now! I remember that several years ago, when a memory manufacturing plant in China exploded the prices for DIMMs suddenly rose sharply.

I don't think the Xoom is junk. It is a solid product but maybe just not what you want. I have gotten very used to it. It's much better than switching on my PC every morning just to check emails, browse the newest Newegg temptations or check the news...

I went to best buy the day of the ipad release and there were over 100 people in line for 50 ipads. The line was right in front of the xoom display and not one person looked at it.....except for me. The whole world can't be wrong.
[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
Could be they had allready sold out on the xoom?
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
lol that's funny....
[Xoom General] burden010:
I get what you're saying but the majority of people are idiots. Wait, I know that's a bit of a generalisation and probably not pc but it's true. How many of those people do you think already own the original iPad? A few probably. How many own iPhones. Probably a lot. How many are buying them because they think all tablets are iPads? Most to all. Crucially, how many have seriously compared tablets and decided with an open mind to go for the iPad? Probably very few.
[Xoom General] wang1404:
Hell yeah the whole world can be so wrong at the same damn time.
[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
They allready sold them all!

Are you sure that the reason for no line at the xoom wasent just because they had allready sold out all the xooms they had in stock? thats what I heard anyway.

[Vibrant General] xsteven77x:
I cant help but feel that they are. With projects being abandoned left and right, I feel as if the domino effect is starting to take place. Devs are getting "bored" therefore us end users start jumping ship also. Then more devs leave etc etc. Feels like that process has begun. I, like many have put my phone up on craigslist in hopes of getting something better with a more active community around it. I do not want to sound ungrateful to the dev s that we do have. They have made my phone what I love today. But I can't help but feel like even the remaining ones have lost passion and drive for this phone.

I can't help but feel that the escalating high school drama over the past few weeks due to little or no moderation has been the tipping point for devs to leave and move on. I can only hope that someone high enough puts a plug in the dam before its too late and it all comes crashing down and no amount of money or resources can synthetically create the magic we already have now. Here is hoping.
[Vibrant General] Longcat14:
I kind of expected this. I love this phone, but if I really have to, I will trade it. I hope that CM7 is finished for the Vibrant, then everything would be fine.

Sent from Vibrant with CM7.
[Vibrant General] eminembdg:
It could seem that way, but lets be real here for a minute.

There are a few devs who decided to stop working on the vibrant. More specifically , decided to stop posting their work here on XDA. Mostly because of the drama that starts in here and the lack of appreciation that is given to them for their "FREE" work.

But, and here's my main point, there are still MANY devs who have never spoken about leaving and are continuing to bring us great mods and roms. We have entire teams of devs like Team Whiskey and Eienharjar Developement Team who still continue to work on great things for our phones. Not to mention people who make mods consistantly. Supercurio, Morphic, etc etc.

It's just a few people who decided it's not fun anymore and are moving on. It doesn't mean the END ALL BE ALL of Vibrant development. I think we should stop dwelling on the drama of a few people who on their own decided to leave and still support those that are STILL here to help us.

Technology moves fast. Newer things come out and some people just get bored fast and get tired of the mudslinging.

Be appreciative to the devs and supporters that are still here, still making things, and still helping us with our questions. Android is an OPEN SOURCE PROJECT. People come... people go. But don't get caught up in the politics of some. Support those that stay. But don't forget those that left a huge impact on Android and this modding community.

I love Android. I love the community, and understand I have to deal with some disrespectful kids/noobs/adults.

Thank you to all who stick around and help us out, and good luck to those who went on to better or more phone projects.
[Vibrant General] ZachLL88:
Perfect way to put it. Couldn't agree more
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
Unless CM7 is near final and it can be used as a stable base, then we will be stuck with the same roms probably as all are based on Samsung's source. The reason the G2 has such large development is due to the large amounts of stable roms, MIUI, CM, and a a stock rom( which we do have).

And with the leaving of Eugene, the Vibrant is basically starting to sink. Those new to these forums may not remember, but he has contributed many stable roms in the past and greatly contributed to the startup on development. We will miss you Eugene!

A galaxy s merger was what I proposed in the previous forums where some international and US developers may contribute to each other's work in a seperate forum dedicated to devs.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
don't forget that eugene was the one who made I9000 roms to be perfectly port to vibrant. He said hw will be posting his one final rom in the future.
[Vibrant General] regP:
Yup. Development may seem to be slowing but lets not forget that we have an whole other i9000 dev forum to choose ROMs from. Especially while they are mostly 2.2.1 ROMs. That'll prolly change (at least for a while) once all the i9000 devs abandon 2.2.1 for gingerbread.

Not every phone will have the lifespan of the g1, hd2, etc... But one can hope lol.
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
Even the Nexus One development is slowing down with only small updates to previous roms. Guess even their devs are moving.

Lucky me that I have a hd2.
[Vibrant General] xsteven77x:
Was considering getting one of those Hd2 for all the development around it but I can't help but feel like it would be a step down.
[Vibrant General] xsteven77x:
I feel like that this is what we are lacking now. Eugene was a master and helped and had a hand in over half the roms on this forum. He was able to solve alot of problems that no one else can/could. I feel like without someone of this caliber spearheading the way, its almost impossible to keep development going strong and not baby steps.
[Vibrant General] gparmar76:
Well with the Galaxy II coming out, this shouldn't be a surprise....everyone upgrades after some time right?
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
not everyone can, :/ i'm stuck at vibrant for years.
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
Not everyone feels the need to upgrade every 6 months to a year, especially when the new dual cores don't provide a huge difference than the hummingbird chip + voodoo in daily use (maybe 3 second gain in web browsing). With android 2.2.1, the galaxy s touchwiz launcher and browser use gpu acceleration, so it will be just as smooth (if you don't believe me use a live wallpaper on the twlauncher, then use it on launcherpro).

However, tegra 2 will set the new standard, so our power sgx 540 will do just fine for the next year (comparable performances).
[Vibrant General] xsteven77x:
Yes to an extent. There are alot of phones that are years old and still have development. I understand that they probably are not samsung and probably have all of the source code. But to me, it seems that this phone has not even reached the pinnacle of what it can do. Alot of roms (bionix exempt) are still trying to just get everything working a 100%. Having a phone really becomes a ton of fun when the development gets past just making it all work. It's really a shame if this will never be possible because of samsungs code.
[Vibrant General] xsteven77x:
Being that the vibrant was a high end phone when it was released, it still stands up to alot of the newer phones. To leave this phone behind just because it's getting "old" (less than a year is old for cell phone nowadays = bull****), is stupid.
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
Maybe devs should spend some time porting the Nexus S APIs so as to provide a good base for future roms.

And in the end, I have to admit that if you want fast updates, go Windows Phone, or IOS if you are really desperate.
[Vibrant General] masterotaku:
Maybe I'm mistaken, but I've seen us lose basically two significant development projects.

Meanwhile we retain several equivalent kernel devs, multiple ongoing rom development projects, progress on CM7, and a slowly building flood of ports from the i9000 dev community.

Furthermore we're finally to a point where this is less about stamping out annoyances with Samsung's lackluster tuning and poor choices, and more about customization and the tailoring of experiences.

i.e. there's less to be ecstatic about, but only because things are no longer fundamentally broken and because development has matured.

My take is that these are good and evolutionary developments. You also have to remember that developers cater to their own whims as much as ours, and it's entirely normal for them to "move on". This is what happens when a community is dynamic and HEALTHY.

I've been on the net longer than most here have been alive, and trolls will always be trolls. If you're expecting the high school drama and angst to vanish entirely in a constantly churning public forum such as this you have unrealistic expectations. :)

All is well!
[Vibrant General] xsteven77x:
Thats a different way of looking at it master, interesting.
[Vibrant General] VICosPhi:
While I somewhat agree with this thread, I'd say give the other devs some time, like maybe a month and see what they come up with, we might get a Gingerbread port or a leak from GS4G. Team Whiskey and EDT will surely come up with something I believe.

Also, I don't understand the craze about HD2, it was a great phone in its time, now if you want ROMS and active dev section, probably better to get Nexus S or wait for Optimus 3D I am sure it'll be sold like hot cakes when it comes out.
[Vibrant General] gatesmarch123:
Hell yeah! Let's hear it for us old farts! I've been on the web since Windows 95. A very scary thought. I actually started with a commodore 64 and it's Gigantic floppy disk drive. When I look back at those days, the worst rom on here is blazing fast and bug free!
[Vibrant General] jwleonhart:
Why is it that eugene leaves and ive seen like 5 different threads about vibrant development stopping?

I see development continuing... and eugene bought the moto cliq2 or something..... it had nothing to do with the community.

There are plenty of devs, so either just shut up about this already or go buy another phone so the vibrant community doesnt have to hear this bull.

Im happy with my phone, and will probably keep it till the sgs2.

Good day.
[Vibrant General] pdefazio:
What more is there?

The Vibrant is almost a year old - an eternity in tech. And development has come a very long way for this phone in that time. And we still have devs that are tweaking around the edges. There are some really great kernel+rom combinations available in the dev section right now that, I believe, maximize this device's capabilities.

I guess my question is - what is it that you want this phone to do/have that you can't currently get?? (within its hardware limitations of course)
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
I want it to make me fly.

If redbull,a PoS can, can make me fly, why can't my phone!
[Vibrant General] jwleonhart:
Drink your phone then? grind it in a blender on highspeed, battery and all for about 3 minutes... should be good to go then. Add fruits for a smoothie.
[Vibrant General] Joy2DaWurld:
Not necessarily. CM7 (the best rom IMO) was just released and is almost perfect. There's not much to ask for post-Gingerbread...yet.
[Vibrant General] Alkaloid:
I really don't believe that development for this phone is going to come to a screeching halt anytime soon. Not to mention that development around here is still very much in full swing. The Vibrant is an amazing device and it's not like there's anything currently on the market that just blows it away. I think this device will stay relevant among android enthusiasts for quite some time. I wouldn't be surprised to see another wave of developers with this device since It's not the hottest thing on the market anymore and so many of them were purchased there's going to be a ton of them being sold by John Q. Public for very reasonable prices. I could be completely wrong, but I like to stay optimistic and it's definitely a possibility. Either way it's a kick ass device and I will continue to tinker with mine always.
[Vibrant General] christpuncher:
Well, master left, eugene left, krylon wants to get rid of his vibrant...im not too hopeful that we'll make it a year before development stops.
[Vibrant General] Alkaloid:
I didn't realize Krylon was looking to get rid of his vibrant. That sucks.
[Vibrant General] christpuncher:
Yeah he twooted about it. Even with master and Eugene gone, I always had faith in team whiskey, but who knows now. If I had cash I would ditch this phone in a heartbeat. The truth is all us tmo users latched onto this phone because it was the first nice phone tmo had. We got overshadowed pretty quick.

Edit I will add that I just used my first EDT rom (trigger) and if they alone stick around, we'll be good for a little while longer.
[Vibrant General] slackerlack:
TeamWhiskey is usually on it. They have been updating the ROMS constantly and enhancing them. So I would say no.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
I rooted my Evo a while back and I messed it all up without a nandroid backup :(. So I luckily found the Evo 2.2 ruu and ran it. I now have stock 2.2 on my phone. Its rooted again but the ruu is from August 6th of last year. I know Sprint released an OTA update around December and I want to know how I can update my phone the official way and not through flashing a rom. Thanks in advance. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
The easiest way would be to unroot, accept the OTA and then root it again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
How could I unroot?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiz0r:
The search button

swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
lol now that I think of it, just run this RUU and then reroot. It is the current OTA.

But no, :p Just been around this board as late and made the sbp thread, and I guess they blew up my thanks button. :eek:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
Thanks for all of your guys' help. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
So no more problems?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
Well actually I tried to run the ruu through fastboot and it won't work. Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
You may need a different RUU.

http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/

Try the 3.70 one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
That's the one I have. It just won't find my evo. It tells me to connect it to the computer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
Could there be drivers?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Have you previously installed and uninstalled HTC sync, and the HBOOT drivers?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
Yes. But I was on a website with instructions to do it through fastboot and they had download links. They had one that was the ruu and 2 others for 32 bit and 64 bit drivers.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
All you would have to do is boot the phone into fastboot, connect it to the pc, once it shows up as fastboot usb, then run the ruu exe..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
I tried that. It wouldnt work. It did work when I ran the other ruu tonight though. Ill try it again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerenOtt:
I ran it again and it still wont work. Any other suggestions?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
not to change back to off topic, but damn teh roxxorz how the hell did u rack up like 60 thanks in a week? didn't u like just have 60 or something? ur going to drive me and metalhead out of business over here!
[Droid X General] jinho11050:
so in clockwork i created a backup.. which i think saves your factory if im not mistaken and then i installed liberty 1.5. however after playing around with the tools and clearing some cache my phone locked and had no service so i decided to launch into the recovery clockwork again thinking i can perhaps clear data and restart anew default.. i was wrong andnow im wondering what exactly was that backup for anyways and how will i get my phone to factory settings or working at all.. i alrdy cleaned the whole data .
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
I'm not exactly sure what you want to do here. Do you want to just go back to stock or do you want to go completely back to factory settings?
[Droid X General] DroidTh3ory:
Boot into Clockwork.. Go to backup and restore/select restore. It will bring you back to the exact same as when you backed up... like it was all a dream. :)
[Droid X General] AirborneJared:
I am having the same issue with my Droid X, however it was after installing Rubix Focused 2.0 My phone locks up whenever i try to run restore from clockwork recovery. If you find any results from this a friendly heads up would be much appreciated since my phone doesn't work correctly
[Droid X General] jinho11050:
okay so basically i just booted back into clockwork and data reset and installed liberty x again. My only question is, just incase i return this in the futuer, is there a defalt factory rom laying around somewhere?

Look up madderstock. That should be what you're looking for

Ok. Running stock Cognition 4.1.1. The KB1 modem is da s**t on my particular phone/network. Added 2 bars to reception, dl increased ten percent, gps takes 25 sec or so to lock, but tracking is perfect and accuracy consistent 16 ft (in a thunderstorm!)

Question is what other kernels and/or roms are FULLY compatible with this modem, and specifically are there any compatible kernels that allow the sound control portion of voodoo app to function??

Thanks in advance and especially thnx to ALL the devs for their more than awesome work.

The flash on market wasn't optimized for tegra, its this version?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] ranova:
10.2 is optimized for tegra 2 and such devices
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] agentdr8:
The performance is definitely better with this version on the Atrix. I've attached a modded library that will allow you to view Hulu and other desktop-only sites. Unzip, push to phone, copy to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib/libflashplayer.so. Use Dolphin HD, set user agent to Desktop, Plugins to Always. Enjoy.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] blancNoir:
Thanks pal
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] link12245:
Thanks so much for this! HULU runs amazingly on the phone, controls are a little off, but video is awesome.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Marand55:
Yes, hulu works great on Atrix but I tried naively to use your trick on my Galaxy Tab and obviously it didn't work. :o
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] aonavy:
what you mean push to phone? then you say copy... same thing?

I got it!!

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] jug6ernaut:
push as in /adb push

push != copy
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] JayRolla:
When you say copy too "libflashplayer.so", do you mean I overwrite that file? Because its not a folder. Im new too all this, so be nice, LOL.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] JayRolla:
Well I removed the original file and copyed the mod file over and it works now. This is so awesome!!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Mustang302LX:
so did you rename the mod file to what the stock file is named? I tried that and it told me I didn't have Flash installed so I went back to regular 10.2.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] agentdr8:
I posted a modified libflashplayer.so in the Galaxy Tab->Apps/Themes forum a while back. It's not 10.2, but it should be the latest non-tegra2 flash. Search for "hulu flash" and it should come up.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] agentdr8:
Sorry, I should have put a bit more detail into my post.

1. Install the 10.2 Flash version from the OP.

2. Once you download the attachment and unzip it, you'll have a libflashplayer_tegra_mod.so file. The stock file is named libflashplayer.so. You can either rename it on your PC and then adb push it to your phone, or push it as is and rename it while in an adb shell. Either way, just make sure it's named libflashplayer.so and gets copied to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib.
