interesting. can u attach the apk file here?

This was asked way back when development first started, and-- unless I missed it-- nobody could get it to work (or it worked, but then crashed on fetching mail or something)...
Interesting. Looks like it has been ported over to some (maybe all?) SGS phones. Below is a link to the apk:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=473349&d=1293332097
After spending some time trying to get this to work both using the viewsonic gtablet version and the sgs ported versions, I realized the only devices successfully running the email app were also running froyo.
Guess we'll have to wait for a full froyo rom... or I guess nookie could possibly run it, although nookie is still far from a good daily.
I tried to get this running unsuccessfully. Its too bad because i use it on my Vibrant and its excellent.
Maybe once we get some 2.2 roms...

I have tested this I went from bionox to darky 9.3 and avatar stopped working.... Other wise i absolutely love the rom... I have tried clear the dfn cach and booting twice but nothing. I cant post yet in the forum was hoping someone could assist me would love to keep the rom but I find this to be a major annoyance.
thanks for replys
Sorry i cant answer that...i dont use darkys,i tried it awhile back before it was made compatible but never looked back
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Sorry - didnt see it before. Best guess is that Darky's ROM lists itself as a I9000 and not a T959 (Vibrant). Did the I9000 come with Avatar? IF it didn't, I bet the DRM blocks it from playing.
Thanks its the fact that it is a ported rom

Ok, so I currently have Trigger 3.2 Final and Overstock Kernel installed. And I want to use the Netflix App. So, I want to install a Gingerbread Rom. But I don't want a buggy Rom installed. Don't want to Loose GPS or other futures. So, what Rom is the best? And works with Netflix? Thanks a million!

If there was a 100% working gb rom for the vibrant, you'd know about it already.

not even 2.2.1 work 100% and they still froyo...
Dam I want Netflix for my vibrant. Stupid that they made it not work with sgs phones. Just really stupid!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
the odds of getting gps on gingerbread is about as likely as T-mobile giving you a sgs II for a free upgrade when they merge with At&T. As for the Netflix app it supported by 4 phones. Thats it so we're not being picked on here. it's about drm protection for better security. It makes logical sence. Not to mention it's new who knows what the future holds as the application matures.
GPS on the Galaxy phone was adaquate at best and terrible at worst. I personally believe it's a good trade off for a great rom to play with like CM7 or Miui. give it a shot if you absolutely can't live without the gps you can always flash back.

People have had a lot of luck with Netflix on GB.
I found on a site called akaskriller.com a post about 100% working 2.3.2 gingerbread ROM for Vibrant based on Nexus S firmware.

ya i agree,but i went and put this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021383 on mine and netflex is working 100% with no hacking at all .just put the apk on inter sd and install and watch .so for now might be the way to go untill it's gets fixed for us!
there is always the TV Shows Stream and the Movie Stream apps. both are awesssooommeee and only a 1 time payment for the app. its what I have and I love iittt
Flashable please
Cm7.
No doubt.
If you needed gps there is new I've out I can't remember name but it says jvp on title
Miui made me love my phone again.
simply honey 3.6... that rom is the smoothedt of all in all ways.. browser is as smooth as iphone 4 and is fully capable of playing back 720p flash videos because its a hardware accelerated rom.. also you can downgrade without using odin but by just simply using sgs kernel flasher....
Blitzkreig with working gps. Awesone.

I Love Cyanogen, however i have not used it on the Vibrant due to the glitches its seems to still have.. Simply Honey 3.6 is very smooth and will be updated Sunday to 3.8 with the new GPS fix and alot of other option that will supposedly make it even better.. Right now i have Bltzkrieg running on my Phone right now and its to nice, especially with the GPS fix kernel.. but it is probably the least polished of the 3..
I liked simply honey, Liked cm7, LOVING the Blitzkreig with the working GPS...

Me as well. There are a couple things that need to be ironed out, but I'm sure in no time they'll be good. If your looking for something a little prettier then go with Simply Honey.

No idea since it hasn't been released yet.. it will be based on 2.3.4 and However Blitzkrieg is also based on 2.3.4 and i get awesome battery life..
MIUI us is pure sex.
Flashed MIUI a few days ago and it is just amazing, I can't see myself going back to any other ROM. Don't know if it's device specific, but my GPS has always worked.
miui is amazing. just gotta work out the bandbase issue and ill be unstoppable
I've tried CM 7... looks awesome but I got problems with adding account, it cant retrieve something of the account!! now I have no market no gmail...nothing! I tried reflash and odin to stock then back to CM....didnt work
MIUI...sorry but its a freak copy of the Iphone... dislike
Now Im gonna try the simple honey...let's see....
I say try Blietzkrieg, it has a working GPS. Not themed or polished as others, but it's a VERY good Rom for 2.3
I've rocked it once, but I had to revert back to Trigger/NextGen because of issues with some apps I need for my work. But once it stables, I'll hop on that like a cop having a bag of donuts!!!

Save yourself some headache and use the source, not some knockoff. CM7 is what you should really be using.

I keep wanting to switch from Liberty GB to CM7 for DX but everytime I look at reviews it says camera/camcorder don't work, youtube don't work, & GPS maybe.. That review was from June 17th.. Anybody got a up to date review on that ROM..

Nothing wrong with "plain CM7", but Birgertime's version is hardly a knockoff. If it weren't for him, we'd still be using mute/unmute on calls in CM7 and GPS would still not work. Many of his fixes have been rolled back into the official CM7 for Vibrant.

check cyanognemod.com forums for the device, and see what people are saying about it.
however, since you posted this in the vibrant themes and apps section your chances of getting an answer go down... significantly
if you really want to you can go through the change log http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=cdma_shadow
or go through all of the cdma_shadow commits on gerrit http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,st...yanogenMod/android_device_motorola_shadow,n,z

actually the gps fix was done by karl hegbloom, Roman pulled the commit and put it into his build after Atin passed on it (there is more to the story and some more tweaking was done by all parties)
but here is the link for gapps

No intention of knocking any of the other Dev's here at all. In most cases that "I've" seen, ROMS built off of CM7 which already has issues of its own, tend to have more issues than not. I haven't tried any other GB ROM other than CM7 so I don't have any experience with them. I do know CM7 has worked perfectly for me so far, and I do know most of the problems encountered are from the end users.
Cheers
EDIT: Is phiremod even Birgertime's ROM? It's also built off of CM7 #74.

there is a phiremod based of GB in rootzwiki
This may be a dev forum question, so forgive me if it is, but I see plenty of mod posts here
I need the popular camera hack that allows me to use cam even at super low battery life, as elk as a gps fix.
I recently had to dump toxic crazy 8, wonderful rom, but my camera stopped working and my pc wouldn't acknowledge my phone. Insanely long story short I figured it out and odin'd back to stock root. I've resolved to just tweak stock 2.2
So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Why not find a rom with a hacked. apk? And move it to system-> app. How about a new kernel? I assume you are rocking a stock kernel being stock rooted. Also there are flashable zips floating around too for 2.2. I won't link it for you do to not being within 700 miles of my pc.

Actually I'm rocking the bali x kernel big fan of that battery life.
Still looking for linked apks. I'm not really looking to flash a new rom until D9 comes out, for now I'm happy with my stock root with launcher pro and a couple other toys. Just looking for that sweet gps and cam fix
