4g failure - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

did everybody just give up on making vibrant 4g roms?

Since when was everyone working on them? Last I knew, Krylon360 and tw were really working on one. The other den teams went to i9k roms.

yep yep yep.
Krylon was basically the only one working on it start to finish.

Yup!
If you want a 4G rom go buy the galaxy s 4g

The point of using the vibrant 4g was to port 2.2.1 to our devices, now that this has been done there is no further need for development from the 4g we have our own 2.2.1 kernel built by our devs here and this allows us to flash new 2.2.1 roms as well as other 2.2.1 roms from the Galaxy S I9000
Hardly a failure if you ask me.

Froyo

Do we have to wait for samsung to actually release the froyo update for this device, or can it be attained earlier?
Someone might be able to port over froyo but you won't get a good Rom until froyo officially comes

I wouldn't count on that. We had completely stable Froyo roms for the Incredible a good 2 months before the official update came out.
I have high hopes that Cyanogen will get CM6 running on the Fascinate. I'm hoping that development won't be too different from the other Galaxy S variants. Time will tell.

Why would you say that? Once the devs have the source code, they should be able to cook up some ROMs that are just as good, or better, then what Samsung releases.

Especially considering that Samsung has made all the goodies open-source. I would suspect it will be a lot easier for someone to cook up a good ROM for this phone than it was for the original Droid.
Verizon made a statement that we would get the Google search widget back with froyo. I guess its the froyo widget obviously. But at least that's a good sign that vzw acknowledges that we will get froyo

But when we get Froyo, will we also get the option to use Google as the default? It's killing me to hit the search button and get binged.

There are debinged browsers you can flash or set Google as your home page. There's some Roms that are bingless also.

[Q] porting roms

What phones would be good candidates to port roms from to use on the fascinate?
I was bored yesterday and tried to port a rom from the samsung epic. My logic is sprint and verizon are both cdma.
Anyhow I got a rom to boot, however i cant get the phone to make calls. Most everything else in the rom works, I tried loading otb kernel on it, that did not help.
I have been using the kitchen package that is in the android chef forums.
maybe the epic 4g would be good?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Yes that is the phone i ported the rom from the epic 4g.

you will encounter serious issues without heavily editing the rom...many apks will work between sgs phones, but libs/drivers/other files wont without merging a lot of stuff
I found a rom for mezmerize, Heinz 57 rom, was able to port that and have it running, Did a Miui from epic 4g, and that one has the phone not making or receiving calls, looks like most of the mezmerize roms are ported from here.

Generally if you give credit to the creator it's fine. Most of our stuff came from the fascinate side anyway. The heinz 57 rom is well done and is using a lot of the tsm stuff.

It turned my slow Aria into a superphone. Incredible support, nightly updates, every feature you could want, very stable. It's how android should be.
I'm looking forward to some cm7 on atrix
Dorian is working on 2.3.5 rom noticed he commented on that in his rom thread
I also noticed the source code was released so hopefully the devs can get it "De-Blured". I would love to run Stock GB. I almost traded my Atrix for a Nexus S until I saw that, now I'm waiting (im)patiently.

Back when they still supported the G1, it kept my old hardware running newer os than some new android phones. Great features and nightly builds. Always up to date and best performance.
Got it on my nook color now haha. Can't wait for it on the atrix.

Wifi Calling on MIUI?
Does it work for the vibrant? i've found fixes for the HD2 and other phones but not the vibrant..

Well, it hasn't come to vibrant CM7 yet, so it won't get to miui until CM7 gets it. And it's not coming to vibrant CM7 for a LONG while.

can any body tell me that if i upgrade my vibrant t959 with vibrant 4g rom downloaded form samfirmware what will happen...if some thing is happed after flashing can i be able to flash it back to stock?????? help plzzz want to use gingerbread..
If you do as you're planning, not only will your phone not work, you WILL permanent brick it!
T959v IS NOT compatible with t959 without HEAVY modification, add to the fact that t959v have bootloaders in its Odin package.

Your partitions WILL NOT MOIJT if you flash a sgs 4g rom without a modified kernel, and your buttons WILL be.messed up, and possibly your headphone icon will indicate the reverse of what it actually is.
There's a reason we don't have a straight port from the gt-i9000 nor a straight port from the sgs 4g...

the vibrant is a dead device. it's been replaced 2 times over.

don't expect official support for a phone this aged. This doesn't that it's a bad device, it just means be happy with what you have or spend the cash for something new.
start searching the forums before starting new threads. all your questions have been answered dozens of times over by helpful and insightful people and everything can be found by typing what you need in the search box located at the upper right side of the screen. Good luck.
