Looking for the best ROM that works with T-Mobiles WiFi Calling app. Preferably ROMs ported over form I9000's.
No i9k roms will work with the wifi calling app.

Hell not even a 2.2.1 rom works on it to begin with. I'd go with a 2.2 rom and the best out there for that is Trigger IMO.

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.

Dam I want Netflix for my vibrant. Stupid that they made it not work with sgs phones. Just really stupid!

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.

Is it possible to run a voodoo kernel with stock Rom? The reason I ask is I've tried a lot of different custom Roms, but every single one I've tried isn't completely working. For instance, I would try one and my picture messaging wouldn't work so I load another one and my camera and bluetooth don't work, etc. I love the benefits of voodoo but I can't seem to find a fully functional rom. Don't get me wrong though, I do give much love to the devs cuz every one I've tried looked great except for those certain features not working.
Already Tap'd that
I'm not sure what ROMS you are trying but both ComRom and Evil Fascination work perfectly and have no missing features.
I have EB01 at the moment. Can you load those straight from EB01?
Already Tap'd that
Yes you can but your best chance for a totally clean build is flash back to stock and build it back up to CR or EF.

Hi all
I am new to the samsung t959
Any recommendation for ROM? I would like to be as fast as possible, and with a working GPS
Thanks a million!
Well its all preference really
I didn't try this one but I will soon this one looks really fast from the video and GPS should work it is a froyo based rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973208
Or you can use other roms and try different kernels also to over clock but do you research first to be sure which kernel suits you best if you were to change it.
Here is the development threads with all the roms look through them and see which one fits your needs http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=711
Good luck! and remeber always backup everything before flashing and make sure your phone is not hardware locked.

When you say new to the vibrant, what do you mean?
Is your phone a t959, t959v, t959d, etc?
Is your phone the sgs 4g or the regular vibrant? These are important things to know before we guide you.

You're really not going to get a GB rom (2.3.4. 2.3.5, 2.3.6 and 2.3.7) with GPS that works like a charm for the Vibrant.
In general GPS is OK at best on the Vibrant even with Froyo roms

I have been using Miui a few months now and EVERYTHING works great. From, GREAT GPS, 20+ on Linpack, 2300+ on Quadrant, 3MB+ download speeds and NO FC's...Following all the help others have given, so might I suggest you look at your installing as the issue.
PM me if you are still having issues, as a stock Vibrant worked without having to know all the ways to increase the "fun" so you might go back to stock and still see if there is an issue with the phone itself.

I'm looking for santa clause, cuz even though I've heard of him I still have yet to actually meet him.
Sorry, couldn't resist. ;-)
Thing is, these phones have crappy gps even with stock ROM. So in a sense, it's like santa clause.
Good luck on your hunt!

I'm needy for GPS as well. The only good 2.3.+ roms that will have decent GPS need to have Bullet included. All other roms I've tried w/out, it doesn't work right or at all.

I can get 20-30ft locks indoors. Is that good enough for you. Better than I ever had with stock froyo.

Yes, I read the thread about how pissed you get when you read "which rom is best" from an idiot newbie like me. I'm not asking which is best. That's too general.
I want the aosp rom with good working 4G LTE, Bluetooth, Wifi and GAPPS. I want dependable sms/mms, able to answer and hang up from phone calls, battery life better than stock. I don't care about netflix.
I would like vzw/vvm to work but not a dealbreaker.
We can narrow down the choices to mini bamf, cm7, or the latest liquid aosp rom if you like.
Which one just works?
I've been using Th3ory for the longest. Try dhacker's version 2.8
Should be everything you're looking for.

I have heard that OMFGB is a great one, I talked to the developer more than a few times about it even tho I don't use it. He has a long track record making the same Rom and porting it to different devices.
If I helped you in any way please use the thank you button
I'd really like to hear from folks who have been using an aosp Rom long enough to know its flaws. Thanks to both of you for your suggestions. Neither of those roms had occurred to me. Now I have 5 to pick from!
Signature says it all...
My name is Revos I'm a recovering flashaholic running Liquid Gingerbread 3.0
Either OMFGB or SHIFTAO5P will be your best bets! I use SHIFT, and have been for quite a while, only flashing to others just to see if they can beat it!
Anybody try the new build 16 cm7? I'm curious if the blietooth static problem is gone?
Does verizon vvm work on any aosp rom?
Th3ory is rock solid, the other one I would recommend is below

CM7 is awesome on the Tbolt. Well -as awesome as this awful phone can get.
#1 bug - location problem. It is easily fixed but the fix is not baked in bc it involves "borrowing" the HTC location.apk from the 2.11.605.3 leak/pulled ota.

How about your bluetooth audio quality? I am accustomed to Bluetooth connection in car for hours every day and I need to hear and be heard clearly.
Does vzw vvm work?

bluetooth audio sounds perfect to me.
no vzw vvm; no aosp rom has it. it's only possible on sense roms.

I'm pretty sure that only fixes.network location not gps location.
A lot of posters wrote about static in bluetooth or not able to bluetooth connect to car. No vzw vvm. No nfl mobile. I don't know what else.

1. No that is not all you do. Sorry. Let me find the link for the detailed set of instructions. And this is for location - not navigation.
Fix network location on CM7
2. I have never had problems with actual GPS - if you do have GPS problems - you know - navigation - the solution is to get a solid lock on GPS from your Sense rom before you flash CM7. If you have already flashed CM7 -create a nandroid backup. Flash back to Sense. Get a GPS lock. Restore nandroid. ? Profit.
Anyone know if xfinity app and hbo go app work in this rom?

Have you tried the fix?
Use Rom Manager *The latest version of my suggestion is only accessible this way*
Look at "Unofficial CyanogenMod 7 Builds" by ProTekk in the Download ROM section.
Grab the latest version (Build 20 as of OCT28) and enjoy. This rom works great for me with Tiamat's latest kernel and the 0906w_ radios. You will need to perform the location fix each time you flash an update but the rom is smooth and gives you all the CM7 perks and extras
