alot of Eugene's followers are moving onto a different phone because he left. Personally I like the Vibrant because its lightweight and can run CM7
No! I just got mine.
Better late than never...
im gonna stick with the vibrant until the Galaxy s2 is out...
I am currently running Gingerclone R2 + Dead Horse Kernel and couldn't be more content.
I think that once CM7 becomes stable, if it does, then I may switch.
Nonetheless, I am not bored with device.
My fiance is getting SGS2 and I have to stick with my Vibrant. She's going to be happy! But no, I am not bored with this guy at all. It's my high quality music source since Voodoo Sound has been made available to Vibrants, it still runs everything fast. It's got hardwares that will last quite some time. I just hope that there will be more and more great apps available on the Market like on the App Store.
Im stickin with the vibrant for i use it for watching moves and web surfin and pictures....you could say its all about the screen for me.
Bionix-V 1.3 w/a Splash of Color
No way! i love my vibrant! sticking with it till maybe the SGS2 comes out. but even than im going to wait a little before i get one of those.
The Vibrant has way too much to offer. There is not another phone that blows it out the water, so why change?

NO ,let me tell You sumething , i sold my Vibrant yesterday , i miss it incredibly today period (.)
As much as i love samsung screens, i'm not sure why all of you are so quick to get a sgs2. Have you not learned your lesson? Has samsung not **** on and screwed ya enough already? Maybe i'm biased since i also had a behold 2
There is not a phone out there that makes me go "ooooo" so, until then, the Vibrant is it. I am waiting for the S2
Think about it, The phone has a good camera good video, excellent music player, Fantastic custom Roms (lots of them) lots of themes and mods....... Until there is something that is WAY better why change? just for change's sake? that's foolish
with all the work the dev community is putting in, I think our vibrants have a lot of life left in them yet.

i love it, it's fast and light, and really slick looking. will probably jump to the sgs2 when it's out, but until then i don't see any reason to switch over to anything. especially with a ffc mod, there's really nothing any other phone has than mine except maybe 4g speeds, which probably wouldn't work well in my area anyway
I like my Vibrant. If you get bored, try flashing new roms. I find it very refreshing to have a new rom. I'm currently running Simply Galaxy/Sweet Honey 2.5. It's good so far! Also, I'm waiting for the CM7.

I never owned a behold 2 , so I can't say much on that. Tbh as love as we have xda dev support, the whole samsung thing is just whatever. But that's just me. I love the hardware they put in my.vibrant, the movie and.sound.codecs. its just a great phone.

I haven't seen a new release for a while. Not even updates. Are there any project in the pipes?
I can't speak for anyone but I heard Krylon is going to be working on some things this weekend.
No, well i hope not, but they did they before that they are working on a Gingerbread full out 100% gingerbread rom.

I know they keep talking about that Gingerbread love from TW. Cant wait till it drops..
Gb will drop when you least expect it to drop. maybe when the official drop or maybe not only time and lots of patience with tw roms cause they are next to perfect. so if you dont have patience then you are screwed for being a tw follower.

I'm a Trigger user til your next release Birger! Used it since the initial release, tried a few others, came right back.
Edit: Was not a knock against EDT either, I love the variety of ROMs EDT puts out. Loved Flagship and love Trigger.

Quoted from Sombionix himself:
(speaking about bionix 1.3.1)
"This will probably be the last major update to this build as we are moving on to other builds. However, we will still provide support and necessary updates if there are bugs reported. Cheers!
Coming Soon:
We're in the process of making a lot of themes for Bionix-v and Frost. Coming soon! Annnndddd.....android 2.3 in the works."
hope that helps

I think sombionix meant to the bionix v series not all of their roms entirely ... they might name 2.3 something else though ...

Even if TW had left the Vibrant we still have lots of other developers. EDT continuously puts out solid work and CM7 is making slow and steady progress. We have alot.of development going on, always something new.
Here's my thoughts. I think 2.2 ROMS are nearing as good as we will see them perform. Check out the change logs for the latest releases. Theme changes, minor changes, etc. I'm not seeing huge leaps and bounds with Kernals. The improvements are still coming, but not nearly at the frequency they have before.
I'm not a developer, so I don't know if this is due to technical limitations or due to the fact that many of the groups are now focusing heavier on Gingerbread.
Team Whiskey is in my opinion the most legit development team for Vibrant. They've said repeatedly they will not release half-assed ROMS. I think they're focusing their work on Gingerbread now. When they come, they will change the game of Vibrant Gingerbread ROMs.
LMFAO, who gives a ****.

That is hilarious!!! !
Really, the dev's all work their asses off. Before EDT was here we had just a few dedicated dev's They all did great work. Most people don't keep the same phone very long anymore (even the dev's) so it would be no suprise that when they get a new device they start focusing more of their attention tward that device (**** I know I would)
Thankfully we have a strong team of dev's still working on this and cranking out new stuff all the time (EDT) And we will still be seeing great things from TW. Not to mention all the new up and comers.
If you really want a straight answer about whats going on with TW go to their forum and ask them, that will get you the best response.
Is there any way someone can make a mod for screen rotation? Or at least point me in the right direction? Something that's smoother and has more of an animation, more like the Omnia or iPhone? I know you devs are working hard on a LOT of roms right now for the thunderbolt. Thanks, again.

I would like to see this too. I've been jealous of my wife's Droid X animation.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I second this, I thought it was just a stock Gingerbread thing but I guess not? Which is funny because the CRT animation is stock on the Nexus phones, but didn't come with Droid X 2.3 lol so its like each side is missing something.
If someone could put this in though I would be infinitely happier. Quite frankly I am shocked that Cyanogenmod doesn't have it already.

I have to wonder why they only included it in honeycomb??

Somewhere around the 4:00 mark or so you can see it. All Motorola Gingerbread builds have it, and it must be in there somewhere to port over.
Anyone?

Will definitely donate to the one who makes this happen. :]
As a forum member of MIUI for the HTC Evo, I just received a e-mail that states a member of the MIUI development team has received a Photon to try and port the MIUI Rom to it. In my personal opinion, this is effin awesome. Anyone that has used MIUI, it is a very impressive Rom, and to know that one day it will be on the Motorola Photon...big things will be happening!!!
Cool, if he can get a bootable kernel, then we can have CM7 as well!

This is amazing news! Slowly but surely, our diamond-in-the-rough phone is going places! Kernel is getting close, just a little more time.
MIUI is great
Ya really love Miui although never had a phone with fully functional Miui.

warttack is teh dev who got it, but he seems to be banned from miui.us.. not sure on what the story is on all that, regardless i know id certainly love some help from him
If miui cames with 4G that will be great other wise CM is fantastic rom
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I do hope things work out. One of the things that I really likes about both the MIUI and CM7 was the theme launcher. being able to change the theme of your phone in a matter or seconds and not have to flash is awesome. Even though I am going through some serious flashing withdraw, I must say, the Photon is a really quick, efficient, and over all great phone fresh out the box. Can it really get any better??? (I'msure it will)

ill tell you what, ill make 7 new accounts and post themed versions of the roms we have now.. then everyone can quit crying about the lack of development..
sgs2 forums they have a BUNCH of stock based roms
that boild down to this.. deodex'd, zipaligned... and bloat removed.. atda! lol the evo please how many cm7 based roms do they they still have popping up every day?
^.^ amen, I've flashed three great roms, three great themes and all kinda tweaks on my photon in less than two months time.
Thanks photon devs.....
And now we have this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18260686
well said...when I was on the Evo forum there were five variations of the same style Rom with small differences...not dissing the devs at all...they all did great work....it really narrowed down to 3 types...CM7,MIUI, or a sense style Rom...MIUI was my favorite...I believe the Photon is to dope of a phone to be ignored... I'm positive Roms will be created and the haters will just be haters...

Hey guys, basically I'm here to ask what kinda roms most users of the Thunderbolt like to use. I been playing with an idea to do something for yall. I don't have a Thunderbolt though so it wouldn't be anything sharp like ICS. I would probably want to do something based off of yalls OTA just to sort of get the feel for things first. I've did about 8 roms for the HTC Droid Incredible so I could kinda find my way without to much help I guess.
Anyways, I'm not sure if I will or not. i just wanted to see what yall think first.
I'll put in a poll to help decide.
well the answer to will I work on this device is starting to look pretty much answered, lol. We'll see though.
hell yeah wildstang,
glad to see you over here, loved your roms, as well as jermaines ran em both on my dinc

Thats a good concept. I just wouldn't want to put to much effort into something that I would never get to see or use my self especially if others here don't really want it. But I'm just gonna leave this open for a little while longer. Who knows, maybe I'll get a hundred votes tonight, lol
one thing that absolutely kills a rom for me is if I am unable to change apn settings
this is because I need to change them for mms to work on my carrier (cricket). If I cant change em, i cant use the rom. That is one thing i liked across yours and jermaines roms.
I knew instantly when i got my dinc I was a sense fan (in my opinion its way better than aosp interface) but as sense versions got higher 2.0 2.5. 3.0......... It really slowed my phone down compared to aosp roms...................... and then i found the minimalist roms............. and i was in heaven
so make a minimalist sense rom............... lol
I got rid of my inc before i found your roms but have been loading them on my friends inc, and i can say that they were smooth for me. Wouldn't mind dropping one of yours on my thunderbolt. After you figure your way around maybe a possible sense 3.5 rom! Just saying that'd be great. haha
I really like gingeritis3d by chingy510.. He has slowed down on his development do to school though.
What I like about his rom is that it is 2.1 based. 2.1 roms run alot better on my tb. He has added the 3d carrousel which I think most people look for and he incorporated the sexy smooth rosie that was developed by someone else here on xda.
The rom could benefit with more tweaks options, like 4g toggle and more quick settings. just my 2 cents. Thanks for your interest in deving for the bolt!
I personally use liquid gingerbread, its fast, light, and highly customizable. Please please please stay away from sense 3.5.
I know ill get flamed but please include the music player with beats Some people like that "eq" setting,and if they don't like it they don't have to use it.
Second the above post not a fan of sense 3.5
