Hello Guys, Hey I have a stock Samsung Vibrant and I updated it using samsung kies to froyo. I would love to root my phone to Gingerbread, But need some help, I tried the super one click but im having problems with that. Has anyone installed Gingerbread on thier phone after the froyo update, if so please help me out.thanks
Odin back to stock eclair first then you can root with super one click and flash away.

I am running Simply honey gingerbread rom and I want to go back to bionix froyo rom. My question is can I flash directly from recovery or do I have to Odin back to stock first?

Thanks for quick response even though thats not what I wanted to hear. lol
I say just Odin first to be safe. Doesn't take too long anyways
I tried simply honey myself but didn't like it also tried trigger 2.3.5 but neither one made me happy so I went back to bionix nexgen gingerbread has too many issues

Hi guys. Id like to flash the stock froyo update through odin. I currently only have the 2.1 on file. Where can I download a odin flashable stock 2.2?
Thanks

This link is a build done by Eugene373, is pre rooted and comes with modded 2e recovery. Works flawlessly, just use the same 512 pit file you have for jfd (2.1).

Im looking to go full stock, as I am selling the phone (it was a great run with the vibrant). Do I just go to 2.1 and force the OTA somehow? Please let me know.
Thank you very much!
Well officially you are suppose to use Kies mini to update...but its buggy as hell...hard bricked me
Yeah, don't use kies mini, its bad juju. If you just stright stock, jfd 2.1 is the way to go IMHO.
Edit - Kies mini IS the "official" way tmobile released our 2.2 upgrade, but as trailblazer11 said, it can brick your phone. There was never an OTA update sent out for us.

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.
