[Q] Bing-less browser - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anyway I can get a version of the stock browser sans Bing? Before my OTA update to 2.2(now rooted) I had a rooted stock 2.1 with a Bing-less browser. I had come across a version of the stock browser without Bing but this version won't work on 2.2. Anyone know where I might come across such an APK?

I don't think you can just install a debinged browser...
the ED01 community rom is fully de-binged

Pull it from one of the de-binged 2.2 ROMs
Back on the EB01 ROM I ran the browser from the Mesmerize so that should work on 2.2 ROM.

[Q] How do you downgrade back to 2.1

I currently have 2.2 Froyo installed on my Vibrant, and I want to get back to 2.1before I install Axura204. I tried installing Axura with OCLF and Rom Manager...but no luck, so I figure I might have better luck installing it if I went back to 2.1. Is it even possible to switch to Axura since I am currently using 2.2?
I've only been using an Android for about a week, so please dummy it down for me. If I have to flash something or use Odin, can you please give me step by step instructions?
Quick unrelated questions:
How do you disable One-Click Lag Fix (I tried using the disable-lagfix file, but I think it is still active)?
What is the difference between a kernel and a rom?
Click the icon in your drawer for OCLF and uninstall for there. Pm me for help with your flashing.
I would say just flash with odin and go from there. Do u known how to use it?

How EXACTLY do you flash back to 2.1? What files do I need to do it, and does it work with my existing firmware?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
To flash to a 2.1 rom, make sure the rom has a 2.1 kernal comes pre flashed. For example, any bionix 2.1 roms can be used.

[Q] OFFICIAL Stock 2.1

I want to Odin back to the REAL, FINAL version of 2.1 for the Vibrant.
Anyone know where to find this?
I keep searching, but only finding T-Mobile versions, bloated with their software, or an unreleased version of 2.2. I just want the 2.1 STOCK to Odin. Thanks
There is no official ROM released by samsung. But JFD is the true stock.
Thanks! Is there an untouched JI6 .tar file anywhere?

Stock 2.2 froyo

okay I am looking for the latest froyo build that is the closest to stock touchwiz froyo for the samsung vibrant. I'm using odin by the way.
KA5 is the latest..... Jellette has the completely stock with root but its using 3e recovery.
I'm hoping someone can do a complete stock with just root odexed and modded recovery but haven't seen one yet.

[Q] Vibrant Odin 2.2 stock files?

Maybe I'm an idiot and missed it somewhere or maybe it doesn't exist, but I'm looking for the stock Vibrant Odin files for 2.2. I have to ones for 2.1, but I hate having to use Kies to bring it back to 2.2. Any help would be appreciated.
What I use is Eugene's 2.2 Froyo ODIN which can be found here:

It will also automatically root.
The link is gone from that thread. Anywhere else I can find it at?

Try Whitehawkx's stock froyo rom (deodexed and Odin versions):

Hopefully, the links still work.
Just out of curiosity, why are you trying to go to stock 2.2?

Thats the best place to flash most roms from isn't it? I am on my 3rd and my wife is on her 2nd and we both have vibrants. Thanks for the link.

Evil fascination was a froyo based rom from about a year ago that is very outdated. Ed01 was the first official Verizon over the air update to android 2.2(froyo) and evil fascination was a custom version of that.
I would recommend updating to your current rom to ths 7.1 or one of the others ics (AOKP, gummy, or codename)
But if you just want to try a really old rom for fun then go for it.

Really what I want is a nice dark ROM (like evil fascinate) that is based on 2.2 that isn't that outdated
The reason for the switch is because I need to run an Android app that doesn't fully work on ics so I wanted to switch to a different one

Unless you need/love touchwiz I would suggest CM7 found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385624
With cm7's theme Chooser app you can browse themes available on play store (market) that will satisfy your needs.

SUPERDARK aint based on GB ,
get the EH03 (official verizon GINGERBREAD) based ROMS , they are all extremely good and work pretty well, provided you follow the instructions carefully.
here are the three ( not in any order )
1.. [ROM][KERNEL][RECOVERY][02.03.2012] GeeWiz 2.6 EH03 TouchWiz Debloated
2.. (Rom){EH03}[1.19.12] SuperClean3 Milestone 2
3..[Rom]{2.7.12}[EH03] TSM Resurrection 2.2 (touchwiz4/tsm parts)
the superclean and the resurrection Roms have many themes available , there are ca few available for GEEWIZs well in there .
chk here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218257
just choose the ones u like
all these are Solid ROMs , just depends which of these ur fascinate prefers .
my 2 cents .
