[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkd:
Taking a car loan does not hurt your credit, if you credit was top notch and you took out a car loan it does not make your credit bad and your credit score does not go down that much. Yes if you dont make a payment on that loan and it goes late on your credit history then you are in trouble. Taking out a car loan and paying it on time actually makes your credit better and makes the creditors think that you are more responsible.

Trust me my dad used to be a big gun and had 3 mercedes and one was nearly 150k and two were around 80k and also had a cadillac. Trust me his credit was epic, but sadly economic meltdown literally took everything away from him, even his savings.

your first car loan is actually really good for your credit.

I had a bad credit last year when i tried to get my inc, had to deposit a full year cost which i didnt though. But anyways today i bought my tb straight out 599.99 and they didnt even check my credit at all. Maybe they didn't because I already have a account with them.

It must be good! It is from the future.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
screen shots coming.....

I didn't add EDT's GPS script...it does lock after a few minutes...

I'm happy I got that to work with stock files...it basically just needed the FROYO libraries...for faster fixes there are options....

ah man I just saw the date I put lol
[Vibrant Android Development] grinchyboy:
great rom. i flashed with voodoo enabled worked fine

theres just something about percentage battery mods i dont like

great rom though
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
I see you recompiled services.jar. Does that mean you ported the fixed version that we use or did you use the available one here? I just see no mention of if you came up with a unique and brand new way to stop the soft reboots or what you are using - not covered in credits.

EDIT: Just read my own post... Kinda sounded like a ****, huh?
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
*I neglected to add the i9000 signaling fix (services.jar)

*reboot issues resolved as of RC1.1
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Message me when you get a chance.

Screenshots?

thanks

Dude, Its a rom from the future! posted on 3/19, but today's the 18th, freeeakkkkyyyy. LOL. :D:D

Welcome to the madness that is Vibrant Rom hosting, keep your waders on, it gets deep around here sometimes. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] enzomtrx:
downloading now....Thanks for putting this concoction together!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] timon184:
It did a soft re-boot when I was on the market, i noticed that the signal went from H to E so I'm not sure if that is what made it do the soft re-boot or if it was the Market .....

Another thing is where is the nav on this
[Vibrant Android Development] trill12:
Gave me 6 soft reboots back to back. Yeah.....
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Downloading Google maps will enable navigator
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Doesn't appear the services.jar fix was implemented on this rom. Here is the services.jar for JS8 with the reboot issues fix and disappearing signal bar fix both implemented. Simply unzip the file below and use root explorer to move the services.jar to /system/framework (overwrite the existing one). Change the permissions to RW-R--R-- and reboot. Problem solved. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] timon184:
thanks for the reply and the fix
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
Is this what you were referring to yesterday Jellette?
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Thanks...yeah...I was up all night...days blended together
[Vibrant Android Development] TeldenW:
I flashed this rom.

I get a weird boot problem.

It keeps switching to the "globe boot screen".

It will go back to the homsecreen for a second.

Also, can't find phone/data signal.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Try flashing again please...
[Vibrant Android Development] TeldenW:
I wiped and flashed twice. Same problem both times.

I had to switch over to another ROM, for now. Not quite sure what was happening with it.

What I saw looked good though
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Thanks...reboot issue fixed with new services.jar...found in OP
[Vibrant Android Development] glensta:
Having trouble connecting to Wifi? I check the Wifi box and it keeps saying, scanning - then disconnected
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
All you have to do is use the file I posted one page back and it fixes the reboot issue. You should include it with this rom so it's stable.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Kind of. EDT just put a thread up in general to fix these problems.
[Vibrant Android Development] jcc332006:
Ok.Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
I'll see if i can dropbox a fix in a little while.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I just thought it was funny, hopefully didn't offend. Been there man. I updated my op the other day with a new version, and forgot to upload the rom while I was doing the post, hit update post, with no link. That was a long day, lol.

Sent from my Loki powered Vibrant via the XDA App
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
uploading...now
[Vibrant Android Development] glensta:
Thanks Jellette
[Vibrant Android Development] moises1204:

[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Wifi still not working guys?
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
Wifi.

Built from my phone so i will test and then let you know if you need to push or if it will flash.

EDIT: Ok, flash works. I don't think I made any mistakes on it but I did build this directly from my phone so if I did then you will only continue to not have wifi. Wipes dalvik so be patient at reboot.

[Vibrant Android Development] enzomtrx:
Flashed before i fell asleep for the day. Had a soft reboot after I woke up, but realized I hadn't rebooted since install. Found wifi and data issues as mentioned, but pushed services.jar and flashed wifi fix (thanks!), everything seems just dandy. Just enabled voodoo...we'll see how tonight goes.

Been running CM7 for the past week, so Zenn was installed after fresh JFD Odin.

I am presently...working with the XWJS8 stock firmware downloaded from samfirmware...deodexing it now...need to run some diffs....hopefully...will have a new version out this weekend
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
New version - Updated OP
[Vibrant Android Development] jrafael:
Can you share how you fixed the SD mounting problems ?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Environment.smali

In framework.jar

Swap the /external_SD lines....I'm

not at my computer right now or I'd be able to give you a more accurate answer

There may be some change in manifest$permissions
[Vibrant Android Development] c-brit323:
Is the home button vibration fixed?
[Vibrant Android Development] c-brit323:
Oh and if wanted to update, should I dl and flash all of them to the latest or just skip to the latest
[Vibrant Android Development] wizern23:
i say skip to the latest unless it say says no-wipe update on any rom including this one
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
You can download the fixes and apply them where need. RC2 has them minus the missing library for jota to work. If you care to use it. RC2 also adds some more bloat...the bloat package is everything else not included in RC2 making up the full stock XWJS8 ROM and the extras of course.

Home button is still buggy..thinking that may be related to stock screen capture not working as well...also if I'm not mistaken the i9000 has only three bottom keys.
[Vibrant Android Development] timon184:
i was using the headphones and it kept freezing and or shutting off the phone......
[Vibrant Android Development] geosa:
Avataar movie not working.. Otherwise the ROM Rocks.
[Vibrant Android Development] rbtady:
Yes, I added avatar from bloater and it did not work either. Also, I tried gps test and it only found one satellite, should I try the gps fix from sgs tools to fix this or another kernal? thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Update - Home Key Haptic now working - fix in OP

GPS takes a few-to-several minutes to obtain a good lock.This ROM has the stock libraries to get it 'WORKING'.It's not particularly fast or accurate - purely stock

The other methods are discussed in general. EDT has a really fast locking method (flashable).

I found with stock sometimes if I drop to GSM only I can get faster locks.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
I looked into this...I tried birgertime's method as well...I'm starting to formulate the mindset that since this is a European i9000 ROM adapted to our Vibrants it's looking for the SGH-T959. I'm half tempted to try changing the build.prop with SGS Tools from GT-I9000 to SGH-T959 just for ****s and giggles just to see what would happen...I can't believe this Avatar matters to me after all this time...I don't watch it....It's still on my sdcard...It's nostalgic none the less
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
What version were you using?

How were you using the headphones?

I'd like to try and reproduce it

Thanks

I did find mention of OverStock kernel 2.0 breaking the headset speaker

I did try and listen to voice mail through my headset and it came out the back speaker

There is a new kernel version up...I'll try it and see if it changes anything

Voodoo 6 ---Awesome

Gonna have to try some other tests but as of now : with headphones plugged in - checking visual voicemail - the sound is routed out the back speaker

headphone sound is correct and sounds awesome listening to the Avatar trailer

Gps still works with Overstock 2.1 - faster I think ...12 sats 6 locks 10meters Indoors in 2min on 3G...no additional fix applied

I still found freezing and hanging reports relating to headphone usage in the Overstock thread...

I have lagfix disabled...I just set CPU to conservative with CPU tuner I'll let this setup go through a few battery cycles
[Vibrant Android Development] rbtady:
What is the really fast locking method that EDT has? Does it make the gps lock onto more satellites?

I find the avatar thing more nastalgic too and I'm the type that likes having EVERYTHING work lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
The gps we have are files jellette has worked on that improve the gps reception on many devices. Jellette is a geocacher, and wants his gps on point. The one he released over the weekend has improved my own dramatically. As far as the details on what he changed I couldn't say, but it just seems to work.

Avatar, yes thats extremely hit or miss on all i9000, 2.2.1 ports. It definitely a problem with the drm, but what the problem is exactly I haven't been able to nail down yet. I've tried the drm files from many 2.2 and 2.1 builds with 2.2.1, and the results havent varied. It hardly ever plays. Twice after 2.2.1 flashes its worked, countless other times it hasn't. Very hit or miss, and not easy to troubleshoot unfortunately.
[Vibrant Android Development] tweezit:
Rom is running great for me I just got done setting it up to look like that theme black froyo & other various images I gathered from xda :)

I did add jellettes gps fix 2 which seems dead on.. Loving it so far so +1
[Vibrant Android Development] rbtady:
I tried the gps fix from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=974702 but I still only show one satellite using the gps test app. Should I try a different kernal or modem?
[Vibrant Android Development] tweezit:
Some people seem to get better on different modems so I say give it a shot.

Running beautifully over here. only on this rom gps didn't seem to work to good on 3g, but it worked flawlessly on wifi. Great rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Updating tonight
[Vibrant Android Development] fragmentttt:
does RC 2.15 still have CRT shutdown?
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
update is up 2.15...yes it has CRT shutdown
[Vibrant Android Development] rbtady:
Aww, I just flashed 2.0 last night, is there a non-wipe version? Is it worth flashing? Only big difference I see is going to sites that start with https....I already added the home button vibrate and gps fix too.
[Vibrant Android Development] tweezit:
I just pulled the files out of the updated rom that I needed like home haptic feedback and the https fixes and added them to the 2.0 version and working good so far. :)

To the dev very good work man rom runs nice and smooth :)
[Vibrant Android Development] rbtady:
Hi tweez, which files did you pull for the CPU Tuner, Voodoo Control, Terminal Emulator, SGS Kernel Flasher? Did you also update the kernal to overtock 2.1?
[Vibrant Android Development] tweezit:
I only pulled (framework.jar & android.policy.jar) as I use setcpu. And yes I updated to overstock 2.1 :)

The rest of the apps in there I either had or don't use so I hope that helps :)

Edit.. if you seen my earlier post in this thread I did modify the rom im using alot though.
[Vibrant Android Development] rbtady:
oh ok thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
very nice ROM...

I suggest to include GPS fix and Signal Bar Disappear Fix....

works more awesome after that. :D

Thnks!
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Updated OP

dagnarf GPS Tweak (optimized jupiter.xml)

FuguTweaks edit: not init.d but app_process and system_server mods

Darky's Rambooster (init.d script) (for kernels that support init.d scripting)

Hardcore Optimizations (init.d script) (most of them now do)

Brick'd LogsProvider.apk

Flashable ZENN update

Instructions:

Enter SGS Tools --Secret Codes - GPS-Test and Settings - Clear GPS Data

Reboot into CWM recovery

Goto Advanced - Wipe Dvalik-cache

Flash update

Reboot

Enter SGS Tools -- Secret Codes - GPS Test and Settings - Get Position Test -- Wait Until Lock -- It's building a log/cache in sdcard/gps/log and /data/gps/xtra.bin after that subsequent tests should fly in

--For extra sensitivity --try enabling sensors

---Home---Menu---Settings---Location-and-Security---Use-sensor-aiding

8 locks ---2 seconds
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Wow! Thnks for that Tweak Pack! trying it now on RC 2.0.. :D

EDIT: I was talking abt this fix - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=981601

EDIT 2: GPS Fix Doesnt work. The only one working great is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=974702
[Vibrant Android Development] The_Ravager:
Sorry...hold on recompiling now..thought it was in

here: deleted (out for testing)(may do a full update)

Works awesome....fresh install of RC2.15...applied tweak pack

If you already have a GPS fix applied it may not be compatible!

My,credit to dgnarf for the research,GPS fix using only a single session.

It does use glgps for standalone mode as well.

Basically, I configured jupiter.xml's <!--HAL Confguration --> (standalone in a single session)

(look at my screenshot 8 locks in 2 sec-TimeToFirstFix)

notes:

1.After the first cache building run

2.It's gonna have to rebuild the cache if you move positions then use it again or haven't used it in awhile

(satellites move)

3.Perhaps should configure it to update every 15 min or so no matter what

4.I still have some configurations to learn about and play with

5.May need to play with some of the ignore tasks

Testers?

I used this on a fresh 2.15 install with the above instructions

Titanium reinstalled some apps only

back in business pretty quick

Reports please

I've attached my changes

Looks like I'm gonna have to do a proper update and do some housecleaning

Apparently there is bugs associated with drocap

http://www.androlib.com/android.application-comment.com-gmail-nagamatu-drocap2-znCz.aspx?p=4
by Mike the 2/14/2011

Samsung Galaxy S,phone vibration won't stop unless reboot. Froyo rooted. Uninstalled

that I experienced (vibrating) after trying a new services.jar with birgertimes statusbarpolicy.smali melded in. I reverted back to the previous js8 services.jar and still found the same bug (drocap vibration) I forced closed drocap problem stopped after a few seconds. I finished RC2.25 with the tweaks and statusbarpolicy services.jar...some apps updated on me though...may have a 2.26 and 2.27 before upload finishes...it took 416 seconds (out the box) for a good lock - indoors - without sensor aiding - took 1 sec next time around -- having good cache and logs is key (a jump start on where to look)

reports please

For Email Force Close Issues:

Go to Settings >applications, all applications tab and clear cache for the Email.apk and reboot your phone.

[Off-topic] datfk:
Call me a phone freak, but it's not true. I made a chart of the phones I had since I was 11 till now that I am 17(Btw I got my first phone when I was 6 in 1999, which i found, im not spoiled.). If I am not mistaking I had 13 Phones Till now since 2005, and 9 Of them from 2010-2011. Again, I'm no phone freak, I don't text alot, I dont use that teen bbm ****, I only have these smartphones for entertainment and web browsing and music. Mostly it's the entertainment that I need to have in class, because if I can't find a good addictive game that I could play with in class. I will go crazy. If you notice in the chart I had all iPhones except the iPhone 4, Which is the next phone in my eyes. Even though I think that Android is 1000 times better than iphone I just CAAAAAAAAAAAAANT handle the battery power. Where I go to school from 7am to 12:01 pm I already lose 50% Battery.

Enough Talk, Here is the chart:

Altough I AM going to lose 3g since I am on t-mobile, I need to have those creative like OSMOS, AOZ, etc. Which android really lacks or has a cheap ported version which carshes all the time.

WHAT DO I NEED HSPA+ OR 3G FOR IF I CAN ONLY USE IT FOR 4 HOURS?
[Off-topic] z33dev33l:
I can certainly tell you're in no way a nerd. You've called at least one of the best phones of all time "CRAP CRAP CRAP PERIOD." If you learned how to better use the devices you might experience much better performance out of them.
[Off-topic] datfk:
lol I installed about 8 different ROMS on the HD2, I was then introduced to android through the android ROM on the HD2 which is when I fell in love with android, and it was still terrible, I had it for a few months and the number of bugs were just getting larger and larger. I gave up on that phone because WP6.5 Is terrible, no matter how much you try to exploit it, and android was very buggy on it. Android for me is the best OS, but it has no battery life, which kills it for me. I will go back for it if i get the iPhone 4 because I know that better android phones will come out.
[Off-topic] z33dev33l:
Oh I know android has just terrible battery life. I doubt that will ever improve unless phones become the size of the old saved by the bell phones. I won't touch android anymore to be honest. I did enjoy WM in it's very vanilla form but it had to be heavily customized to my liking. The HD2 was good because I could try any phone OS I wanted which led me to WP7. After picking up an HD7 I fell in love. The battery life on that particular device (as well as all other HTC devices) is not so hot but once I switched to the samsung, LG, and Dell WP7 products I was thoroughly impressed. No HTC has good battery life without an extended battery. The phones however weren't bad until they started re-releasing the same phone over and over withonly slightly improved specs (dual core processor/front facing camera) It sucks that now they're pretty much just releasing the HD2 over and over again with lower build quality and better specs.
[Off-topic] enoch861:
I agree.

The HD2 is the best smartphone of all time. Period.

Dude, I don't know if you know, but any phone, regardless of the manufacturer, has terrible battery life if all your gonna do is play full 3D games for the whole school day. You just can't expect your phone to last the day with that sort of use. And that's why extended batteries were invented...

I play games in class also, but dude, how do you learn?
[Off-topic] enoch861:
Better Android phones are coming out.

But remember, the new android phones are more powerful which equals greater battery draw, especially with full 3D games.
[Off-topic] datfk:
I actually take back saying HD2 is purely crap. But its definetely not the best. It all comes to personal choice, Some say android is the best, some say iOS is, some (very few) saw WM6.5 is the best. WP7 has nothing to do with this, I never said its bad so do not include it and the HD2's caliber because iphone 3g can run android does that make it the best phone for an android lover? I doubt it. Extended batteries are too bulky there is a reason why I want my phone to be very thin.

And regarding that school thing, I barely go to classes, barely wake up to go to school, and my average is 88.56. Kind of surprising but thats how I am high school is easy (I am a junior btw). School in NYC is very easy believe me
[Off-topic] datfk:
lol i'm not being a troll Im just stating my opinon and waiting for people to prove me wrong so they could stop me from spending 500 bucks on an iPhone 4 buddy.
[Off-topic] enoch861:
the HD2 is the best phone because its the most versatile of all phones... it could be a whole big argument, but let's not get into it.

The iPhone can't run Android. In that I mean, you can't use Android on the iPhone as a daily driver.

Not all extended batteries are bulky. Good example is the G2, it has extended batteries that fit in the stock cover.

Ohh, I see. I'm in Minnesota.... so our curriculum is definitely tougher. I'm a senior.
[Off-topic] julez456:
You are going to waste your money on an iPhone 4 unless you can find one with the old iOS version it had on it when it first came out because if I'm not mistake, while the newest iOS software has a jailbreak for it I believe there still hasn't been an "unlock" released for it so you won't be able to use it on T-Mobile. So on that note, I'll sell you mine for $500 if you have money to waste like that. :D

I wish I had that kind of willpower.
