[Q] Bi-Winning or GCR3? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm wanting to flash either Bi-Winning or GCR3? What are everyone's thoughts on each?

I'm sure GCR3 is probably great, but I have not tested it myself. I don't think you can go wrong with Bi-winning. Everything seems to work great on this rom. The minor issue I have with it is that when you receive a voice message using visual voicemail you also receive a text message letting you know you have a voicemail. All else seems flawless, not to mention great support from EDT.

if i were to choose between the two, i'd flash gcr3 first.

I just flashed BiWinning last night and holy balls... this thing is smoother than (insert really smooth thing here). My issue with AOSPish roms is that I actually like SOME TouchWiz apps, like the MMS and the music player. I just throw launcherPro on top of it, and I'm set.

I used the bionix frost mms.apk to remedy that problem on simply honey. You can also flash android stock mms.

I'm loving Bi-Winning Beta 3. But of course I'm a fan of Eugene's work and will have to give it a try.

both B-winning and GCR3 were both on my "to try" list but after flashing a few roms, simply galaxy 2.7.2, trigger 2.9.2 and Darky 9.5, I stopped my search. I am running Darky's 9.5 and it is excellent. That's not to say that GCR3 and bi-winning would not be excellent either, but after flashing a few roms during a week I felt Darky was good enough for me to stop looking for a better rom.
I'm not trying to flame anyone here, Trigger and Simply Galaxy have great teams of devs behind them. Trigger was always my goto benchmark rom, and the EDT guys are great. I ran eugene's roms from the early days of Hybrid and Macnut roms
EDIT:
just tried Bi-winning, it is excellent as well.

Does the Xperia Arc Theme work on Beta 3? It says at the bottom of the post "Beta 3 coming soon" so I didn't think it did. If the theme works I might go for Bi-Winning.

Yeah, I used it on 3. It's not complete. There's still random bits and pieces it doesn't theme. When you remove theme it keeps a lot of it still.

I actually tried Darkys 9.5, but it had some bugs, one of which was a game killer for me (Phone Force Close every time you end a call). I believe a fix for this was posted, but by then I'd moved on.
I decided to go with Bi-Winning a yesterday and it's been awesome so far. No issues and super smooth.
I'll probably try Darkys 9.5 again on the next release. In my opinion it looked better than Bi-Winning, the theme was just really clean.

I've been using Bionix-v 1.3.1 for a while but since simbionix has been on hiatus I decided to switch and try a 2.2.1 rom.
I ended up going with Bi-winning because I read very good reviews and also, this is not a knock on eugene, I've been a fan of his from the beginning. The only thing that turned me off about GCR3 is his volatility. Who knows what will piss him off next and stop support for the rom or pull it from xda (I thought he got rid of his vibrant). I know, weak excuse, but I don't want to flash something that will possibly not be supported down the road. Seems like team EDT is very active in updating and coming out with great stuff so I'll stick with them for now.
On the other hand, I'll probably be going back to TW as soon as they come out with whatever they've been working all this time.
Edit: Apparently he's gone back to the vibrant until he gets his defy fixed.

i flashed both bi-winning and GCR3, i would recommend bi-winning. GCR3 is buggy compared to bi-winning.

I would also recommend bi-winning. I have been using it as a daily driver since friday. No fc's, everthing works. Smooth and fast. I also had fc's on GCR3

Make a back up before you flash, if it boots loop etc you can just restore the back up you made.

Need your opinion

What is the best Rooted GB rom on the site that still has Sense?
Im looking for the most stable sense based ROM that is GB.
Any suggestions???
My opinion is its not on XDA. I think there's only 1 on XDA that even uses the new base; synergy. But I never recommend nightlies to a noob.
I've been using Liquid Gingersense 1.4 and it is very stable with the mr2.5 radio. On my 3rd week, my phone has never been smoother.

Know too that all have issues so please do yourself a favor and read the OP, and read through the forums. Don't pick a ROM like you pick your girlfriends. Use the other head.

Also depends on if you want Sense 2.1/3/or a Hybrid.
I've been running M0N0LITHTH3ORY for a couple days and it's pretty solid

I have only used Sense 2.1, so I don't know if I am missing out on anything with Sense 3.0. But newer is better right? Right now I am in the process of trying out a few. All seem to have some quirks...
I almost feel like I would be happiest with a plain full GB release from verizon with root access so I can remove the Crap Ware.
But that does not seem to be coming any time soon.

Thanks everyone for your assistance and suggestions.
In the end I have decided to go with BAMF 3.0 R4.9 and Radio 6.27
It seems to be running very smoothly and has the features that I want. It will take a few days to see if any bugs pop up & how the battery life is.
But so far AOK.
The hybrid sense is really good stuff, you cant use ALL of the widgets and whatnot, but you get all of the important ones.

Nice! But it puts ALL of my downloaded "crap" on the home screens. I wish I could hide them in an app drawer.... but I guess a folder will do just fine..
Nice find though.

I think CM7 is too good to even think about thinking to go back to Blur.
i think cm7 isnt ready for the atrix. i blur is a new rom worth a flashing if you dont like blur try home base ive been running that and its fast and stable great launcher for a great rom. anyway im over cm7 till its out of beta or maybe even then i dont know.

CM7 has the notification quick settings that can be changed and has stock 2.3.5 look. stock camera app. also it has a screen capture app built in. I can't stand the ugliness of Blur. TouchWiz, AOSP, and Sense all look a lot better.

Would be fantastic, definitely the best looking theme out there!

Just rooted my Vibrant, what's the best rom to get?

Hello! I'm new to the rooting thing and finally rooted my Vibrant last night. I'm really eager to get a new rom running and wanted to know what the best one out there is? I'm so over Eclair.
this is gonna be funnnnn
me smell troll?
Huh? I'm not a troll.
"best" is all in the eye of the beholder, i myself am not a big fan of TW roms, while others will swear by them 24/7
so as a first time flasher, go with something easy try out a 2.2.1 rom, Bionix or Trigger. once you get more comfortable try something a little more complicated MIUI/CM7 (personally i'll swear by Miui any day of the week, best rom in all categories in my opinion)
if you wanna jump on the 4.0 band wagon grab Neo's ICS 4.0 passion. very clean stable and shiny. only downside atm is no video recording.
just make sure you read all the OP's and flash accordingly bricking your phone is near impossible but it's always a hassle to have to odin back to jfd and start over.
Awesome! Thank you so much!
For a 2.2.1 rom I would do Bi-Winning over Bionix Frost. But for 2.2 I would definitely start with Bionix 1.3.1 or Nextgen.
Miui only lasted a week on my phone before Google framework started its Marathon of FC's. It is pretty, but I like a app drawer more.

You definitely want a Toxic ROM. Nothing comes close to the batterylife. Try Toxics D9, there is a RC3 version out right now, you wont regret it, its easy to flash and ridiculously stable.

I am still running Toxic 8 (waiting for d9 final) and it hasn't let me down. Though D9 is pretty much flash worthy. Easy flash, stupendous battery life, and awesome dev. If you want to check out Toxic 8 click on my sig. You can check out D9 here

I like ICS Passion, but since it's still in beta I would not recomment this rom for a first timer. (That's the reason why I don't currently use it).
I like MIUI, because it's really easy to change the theme of the rom.
Be warned that you won't get the battery life you are used to. With that said you can flash a 2.2 rom (bionix, bi winning, etc) and pretty much get a batterylife that will last you the whole day, untill you go to sleep. Hope that helped

My 2 cents... I've tried a bunch of ROMs and by far the most stable, easiest to update, most customizable, most fun to tinker with has got to be MIUI. It honestly wins on all counts for me. Their launcher gives you the ability to customize all parts of the UI. you will have a ton of fun!

I'd say Bionix 1.3.1 or 1.3.2 http://sourceforge.net/projects/bionix-v/files/,
Zendroid 2.1.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079517
or Team Toxic D9rc3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360502,all of which are 2.2 Froyo roms and very solid.
That isn't to dismiss any of the many roms available,but just my picks for starters.
We Vibrant owners are very lucky to have the tremendous community of developers,that gives us the opportunity to mod and customize are phones and I'm really grateful to all.

I dont know why it always happened. I would format system, data, datadata, cache, dalvik, factory reset and then flash. I would restore my apps via MIUI Backup, it would last 5 days about and then force close constantly. I have no clue why it always happened.
I'm about done with Gingerbread anyway, these ICS roms are looking better and better by the day. Too bad CM quit Vibrant, 911 works on ICS. Wish they'd give it a second chance.
About time you rooted. I always liked the bionix stuff from team whiskey. CM never really agreed with my vibrant as well as my older phones. But these posters are right, start with some of the easier stuff and get familiar with Odin. ICS passion is very nice IMO. Enjoy as your old phone is going to become brand new for you.

I've tried lots of different ROMS and bounced between them. I would have to agree with others that MIUI is the most customizable and in my opinion is very sleek. Cyanogen is always solid. Right now I'm running ICS Passion v8 and have been hooked since v4 due to the fun ICS tweaks. Just a matter of taste.
