[q] froyo/sweet honey - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am fairly new to all this and am wondering if I need to have the stock Froyo installed to flash the new Sweet Honey 2.5 ROM. I thought I read that somewhere in the development forums. I am running Bionix 1.3.1, and the battery drains so fast I am looking for something else to try. If I Odin back to stock before I flash Sweet Honey, does it matter what I was using before? Thanks.

Noo you dont need to do nothing...just flash...if you odin back you will lose root...just flash the rom and thats all

Yup, no need to Odin back unless you are having major issues. Just follow the installation instructions in the thread step-by-step and you shouldn't have a single issue.

I actually just switched from Bionix 1.3.1 to Sweet Honey to try it out and had no problems flashing it. Just make sure to do it from Rom Manager as suggested in the op.

Flashed it last night, and it is working like a champ. The only thing I couldn't do is install the updated G-mail app. When I hit the install button it says it is not installed. I have the most current G-mail app from the market, but I loved the new G-mail icon and would like to get it back. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I flashed sweet honey and i have problems receiving phone calls. then i flashed back to bionix 1.3, and i had alot of FCs. then i tried B 1.3.1 and still had force closes. so now im back to sweet honey. cuz odin wont reconize my phone in download mode

Now that you mention it, I haven't received any calls yet. I tried calling my phone from another phone, and it rings once and disconnects. Did you find a solution? Anyone out there have a solution? It's kind of important to be able to receive calls. I can initiate a call with no problems.

No i havent found a solution. im still trying to get my pc to reconize my phone in download mode. my phone is really messed up lol

You may have to go into Root Explorer, find the gmail app and long press it. You should get a menu pop up. Click fix permissions and make sure that read/write are checked for the first one and only read for the other two.

You two may want to send a message to Explodingboy and see if he can figure it out. I didn't seem to have that issue. My only question would be did you guys flash it like he suggested or did you just flash it through Clockwork recovery? My flashing addiction has taken me to Jellette's Atriarc rom which seems great as well.

Girlfriends Fascinate just decided to randomly stop doing anything except showing lights on soft keys after rooting and lag fix. Decided if I've got to restore should try this. First flash I got stuck at a similar issue after VZW logo. Wiped data and cache and was able to boot but entered in to FC hell. Working on flashing back to stock Odin posted in other thread as we speak.
Update: realized I had only wiped data and not cache as well. after doing that was able to flash back to stock, trying this once more.
Update 2: No go, still FCing like crazy. Flashing back to stock.

I had the same issue. Install stock and then Angels. Wipe cache only and it should work. If you cant activate Google do a reset in settings and all is fine.
I'm sorry, but that's exactly what I experienced rooting and running the lag fix on a Vibrant. There is something flawed with the lag fix. I don't know what it is, but this is the 4th experience I've read about that's the exact same as mine.
Could Samsung change the file system with an OTA update? Is that even possible?

[Q] "Sorry, this video cannot be played"

OK, so just yesterday, I realized that for some reason, I cannot play any videos on my Vibrant. This includes both videos I have put on my phone as well as those I have taken with my camera.
I am running Bionix 1.3 ROM. I searched but didn't find anything. I have not had this issue before. Any help is appreciated.
Reflash,I suggest odin to stock and reflash or try just flashing the new vrs of the overstock kernal.

Try a 2.2.1 rom
Sent from my T959 using XDA App
This happens no matter what if you haven't rebooted in a while. My buddy on his completely stock KA6 was complaining about it all the time, just reboot at least once a day and you will be fine. No Rom will fix this issue that I am aware of but to be honest I have NEVER had this problem by always doing the before mentioned fix.

Latest Trigger - Did you update via Rom Manager?

Birgertime has done a great job getting EDT ROMs available via Rom Manager (I may have bugged him a couple of times). I was a bit shocked when I was reading the thread and saw people were having issues when they updated using Rom Manager. I think the consensus was that Rom Manager was not properly wiping.
This is what I did:
I was on Trigger 2.9.3 *I try every ROM and I just felt like being old school.
I opened Rom Manager and downloaded the latest Trigger 3.2,
I used the KB1 Modem, KB5 kernel, I selected a few of the apps I wanted (bloater, titanium, maybe a couple others)
I told Rom Manger to wipe and do a backup by clicking the two boxes.
Once the download was completed I proceeded.
It went into CWR and it did a backup... immediately it did a wipe (it showed the steps in CWR like normal)... and then it flashed the ROM and it rebooted perfectly. I have had NO issues with the ROM. It's perfect in my opinion.
What I want to know, for those who had issues... what was different?
Did you get rebooted into the red voodoo recovery (I was at the normal CWR)? I don't understand how it can work perfectly for me, and not others. I would like to know exactly what went wrong so we can go to @koush and try and get both Rom Manager and Clockwork Recovery working better for us.
Between this, Fix Permissions, Partitions F'ing people, stats not working (for the dev's) I think our phone needs this amazing app to be better, and I know koush can do it.
** If there are other things wrong with Rom Manager/CWR, please post... it would be nice to have a list of things to work on.
I can put up a test version on rom manager. The current Trigger 3.2 up there will wipe regardless of what you tell ROM manager.

Ah, ok. I dont see why downloading it with RomManager would make a difference, unless its not completely downloading. The safest is like birgertime says in the Trigger thread, download on PC and check Hash.

Rom Manager is the most convenient way to do this. it also checks the MD5 before it flashes the ROM. Trust me when I say I know the process...
I just want to know from those who had issues with using Rom Manager to download/wipe/flash, what went wrong?
I flashed it using Rom manager.
I chose KB5 modem and KB5 Kernel.
along with things like Bloater and swype.
it rebooted into red recovery and seemed to go fine from there.
when it first booted up it seemed ok at first, I let it sit for a while like usual.
and then rom manager force closed.
from there it was just force close after force close.
So I rebooted back into recovery and wiped data and dalvik.
then I rebooted.
and everything works just fine, with the exception of it never installed any of the extras I chose (swype,Bloater, etc...)
but I had those in titanium backup just in case anyways so it wasn't a big deal.
Its been running beautifully ever since.
Pretty much same thing happened to me, it went to red recovery and seemed to flash just fine. then when it rebooted i kept getting force closes everywhere. rebooted to clear cahce, dalvik, and fix permissions and has been fine ever since. it didnt wipe my apps which i found a bit odd
Alright, so as I expected... it sounds like it was
THE RED VOODOO RECOVERY AS THE PROBLEM.
Anyone able to prove that wrong?
I mean, it makes sense, it's not the recovery Rom Manager expects to see.
So, how do we fix it? This would not be koush now, I do not think.
Where did the red voodoo recovery initiate? I remember it just showed up one day. was it supercurio?

Messaging wont start

Yesterday my Vibrant crashed and now I can't start messaging. When I try to, the screen goes black and after a few seconds, I get the message "the application Messaging (process com.Android.Mms) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again", and then closes very quickly, before I have the chance to tap "force close". Any solution?

didnt restore messages from a different version did you, like 2.2.1 to 2.2 or 2.2 to 2.3
i did that coming from 2.2.1 and restored on 2.2 and my messaging force closed, if it is that reflashing would fix it
just a suggestion, better to have more than less
Yeah, thanks! However, I'm still working on getting clockworkmod to work, so I haven't flashed any roms. Yet.
So in other words I still have no idea what's going on haha

use rom mansger to flash it then reinstall packages twice in the stock blue recovery if you havent already
if you can't get CWR to work... then download a nightly, lastest or old doesn't matter i don't think message app has changed at all...
so anyways
download it.
extract apk from system/apps
and then replace on your phone..
just wondering... why are you still using stock messagning app? everyone i know has moved on to go sms pro or somthing else.
edit: oops why did i just assume u were using CM7 lol, anyways just replace the nightly up there with your rom, and do the same thing.
What do you mean, "the nightly"? (the nightly build? Of what?)
Also, I got my phone three days ago, so I still use stock messaging. If there's a better alternative, I'd love to get it. What do you guys suggest?

You can try Go SMS Pro from the market - it's really good.
Are you on the Samsung ROM? I thought you were on some other one, ignore the nightly parts...
have you done anything with your phone like flash other ROMs?
If not, there's an app called Bloater, if you search a bit on the themes / apps section you can find it, and then get the messaging app, im pretty sure it has it in there.
I'll try sms pro. I haven't used any other roms yet. I'm on the Samsung Rom. I've tried to flash clockworkmod, but it didn't work. I'll try bloated...

Well, now we know that its YOUR issue, but I'll try and help.
First of all, the stock Samsung ROM is very buggy, and will become laggy after a week or two, maybe a month.
So i suggest you switch to a 2.2, or a 2.3 rom.
We do not have OFFICIAL 2.3 from samsung so we are relying on Cyanogen, a team that makes AOSP (free of all touchwiz) ROMS called Cyanogen Mod, or CM7 as in version 7.
I'll get you started off by teaching you how to use ODIN. Odin is important in the world of flashing. ODIN will get your phone back from soft bricks, and sometimes, rarely, hard bricks- MAYBE.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=771111
that thread has most of the stuff you will need.
ignore the ROMS section and downwards, the thread hasn't been updated in a while...
Go into the Vibrant Dev. section and look at some ROMS that you like.
Gingerbread (2.3) roms do not have perfect battery life right now, but its getting to the point where its just as good as froyo.
You are on 2.1, very outdated, and since its touchwiz, it will get sooooooooooo laggy.
Root yourself with Superonelickroot program, and then get app ROM MANAGER and flash yourself a clockwork recovery, put a ROM on your phone, and then install.
First decide which ROM you want, because if it's a 2.2, it's different than 2.3.
Thats not the only thread, but I can't find the exact threads to help you out with right here...
First off, thank you so much for all that information. My phone is already rooted. I can't get clockworkmod to work, but I will try odin. CM7 was my Rom of choice in the first place, but before I'd flash it I'd like to get clockworkmod working so I can do a nandroid backup. While your here, do you know of any battery efficient roms that I can flash for when I'm travelling and such?

Battery efficent... hmm
If you're not in a hurry, I do suggest you try out CM7 WITH Glitch kernel, without it cm7 has bad battery, but i just tried it and its giving me pretty good.
If you travel frequently, Maybe Froyo 2.2 is best for you.
Now about your clockwork issue, whats the problem? any errors?
Get Rom Manager app from market
grant root access if it ever asks you.
top choice select it and then flash Vibrant CWR, BUT- AND BUT if you're going to try CM7 as I said, flash the Vibrant (MTD) their both there for choice.
It will download and flash by it self.
Now I hope you know how to get into recovery mode for now, because later on in every rom, theres a option you can just choose to get into recovery.
Anyways if you don't...
Hold up and down volume, and power button for about 5 seconds until phone turns on, and then let go, wait a few seconds and a recovery should pop up
press -REINSTALL PACKAGES-
this will replace normal recovery with the clcokwork
then after pressing reinstall packages, it will reboot back into recovery again, same screen, press reinstall packages again, now it wont reboot, but will go into a deeper version of recovery CLOCKWORK RECOVERY.
there you go, now thats what it is.
Now if you will flash CM7, go wipe the cache
and then ADVANCED > wipe dalvik cache
now install zip
install zip again or choose or something
and then find your rom and flash.
there you go.
After flashing a rom, let it sit for 10 minutes, it usually lets the ROM calm down and stop setting up and it works great.
You should let me know which rom you pick, if you want terrific battery, then its froyo for SURE.
I havent been on froyo in a while, but when i did, Trigger was my absolute favorite, if you can't choose, make a thread.
Wow havent typed that much in a while.
haha
Ok, i tried to install clockwork mod and I got the following error
"E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed

However, i found someone with a guide on how to use Odin. So I'm probably just going to use that, unless you know of a way to fix ClockworkMod.
Thanks again!
EDIT: Fixed the problem! I restored to stock firmware with odin, as i was getting a lot of problems. I'm now running Cyanogenmod 7.

are you on 2.2? because the stock 2.2 that Samsung gave was protected so you couldn't do the clockwork etc.
Yep, use the ODIN thread you found and odin back to 2.1, root using superoneclickroot, and then do what I said and then you can flash clockwork.

Well just finished sbf'ing and flashing v0.2.2 again making sure to wipe dalvik, battery, cache, and data factory reset. Still get the battery message that says battery not recognized wil not charge.
If there are not any other ideas by tomorrow morning when I get up I will sbf again and try to download again and re-flash v0.2.2. Maybe a file was corrupt or something, I dunno.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Are you using a Motorola battery? Sometimes generics don't play well with custom roms.

yep stock battery.
Well i have other issues other than the battery. The phone randomly goes crazy and just starts acting like I am hitting buttons, opening programs and typing random letters. I tried re-downloading the rom and re-flashing but still the same issues with the battery. I guess I will sbf back to stock and wait for another update. who knows it may be an issue with my phone since no one else seems to have this problem.

Enter recovery mode. Wipe all. You must do this for it to work.Flash P3's pre rooted gingerbread. After install then go into recovery, wipe again then flash alien rom. It worked for me.

I appreciate your effort to help but this is not what happened. I flashed from the official Verizon 2.3.3, then used red lite to she back and tried again. I have tried this rom at least 4 times now everytime I get the same results.
Dragon, thanks for your willingness to help. Basically what happens is the rom v0.2.2 flashes with no errors. When the phone boots I immediately get a message saying that my battery is not recognized and that I need to install a moto battery. After I hit the ok button the phone acts like a pc when you mash on the keyboard all different apps open up, random keys get typed, when I hit the home button the programs just open back up like ten at a time. Its kinda hard to explain. When I get off work tomorrow I will try to reflash ATRIX alien and post a video of what is going on.

After I hit the ok button the phone acts like a pc when you mash on the keyboard all different apps open up, random keys get typed, when I hit the home button the programs just open back up like ten at a time. Its kinda hard to explain. When I get off work tomorrow I will try to reflash ATRIX alien and post a video of what is going on.

Unfortunately, there appears to be no real solution to this. I hate to say that, but no one else is having these issues, then it must simply be a problem with your phone. I wish you luck, but there's not much I can do if your phone is acting up. I wish there was more I could do to help.

Thanks for your help I don't know what the issue is, it doesn't happen on stock gingerbread just on the ATRIX rom. Thanks anyway. I will keep an eye on your dev thread and will try again when the next patch comes out.
when i was on the alien port i did not have any battery problems. did the same thing as you sbf'ed to the official verizon 2.3.3 rooted and then onto the alien rom. my friend was having some issues however and what helped him was sbf'ing to 2.2.2, then rooting, then flashing p3's pre-root gingerbread onto that. after that his phone accepted the alien rom just fine. not sure what if any difference there is between the methods but it helped him.
Yeah like I said you cAnt do that . You have to flash 2.2 first
