Any 100% Gingerbread working Roms? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

i got it to start up but crashes when i try to log in

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.

Froyo with Flash??

Hello XDA im a eris-aholic and im looking for a froyo rom with flash. So far ive only found 2. 1 roms that have flash but no 2.2's or am i missing something? Pls help!!
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
The only one that I know of is the KaosLegendary v.19 ROM. It's a Wildfire Port, but is very visual rough and still in the alpha phase but flash does really work (probably thing that works really well as of right now). Hope this helps :3
Edit:
The reason for this is that to have Flash 10.1 of the Eris you either need to port it on the back of another 2.2 sense ROM or build it on top of out default 2.1 sense ROM with flash lite. Most (maybe all) other 2.2 ROMs for Dorid Eris are ASOP (cyanogen) which doesn't work well when mixed with the Eris and Flash.

Kaos.legendary
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
Ok so I'm. Going to assume that install through pc to kaos 37 also wouldn't work well then. Is like to have the best of both worlds but legendary is still alpha and kinda funky atm IMHO. any other input would be great
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
I've had flash running on every 2. 1 sense Rom that I've flashed, but so far no luck with the 2.2 because they are all cyanogen. As of last night or the night before, the htc gratia was ported to the Eris. It's the first "working" 2.2 SENSE Rom for us. Only problem is that its still very very rough.. setup is in Chinese, no WiFi, camera issues, and to turn it off you have to do a battery pull. So, maybe in a few weeks some of our great devs will have that Rom running smoother and reliably, and maybe then, flash will work on it. Even then, there may still be issues =/ we'll see tho! Hope this helps!

Give it a month. It'll have smoothed out by then.

Or a couple of days lol. There's a few versions out now like tenzos and tazz's. Both are already looking very good.
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
IMO Tenzo is on the forefront of making a useable functional 2.2 Sense ROM for our Erii.
+1 for Tenzos 2.2 Sense rom.
So far I've demo'd them both and tenzo is definitely closer to completion even though it still has bugs.... ill probably go with tenzo unless kaos pulls this through quick
And clean

New to T959, any recommendation for ROMs?

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.

guys- Theres a compatibility app
use that first, im trying it out on BI WINNING right now.
https://market.android.com/details?...xiscompatibilitychecker&feature=search_result
edit: does NOT work with bi-winning
good luck to others who want to try.
apparently does not work with stock 2.2 kb5 with bali 1.8.6 kernel. wonder if it's the kernel?
EDIT:
tried with stock kernel, does not work either - "Error: Missing required protocol"
Last I remember hearing is EVERYTHING in the world uses the same bluetooth driver, except the galaxy S.
And something CM7 replaces it with the standardo ne.
yeah I tried this a while back. Does NOT work with Bionix 1.3.1

Need camera hack and gps fix!

This may be a dev forum question, so forgive me if it is, but I see plenty of mod posts here
I need the popular camera hack that allows me to use cam even at super low battery life, as elk as a gps fix.
I recently had to dump toxic crazy 8, wonderful rom, but my camera stopped working and my pc wouldn't acknowledge my phone. Insanely long story short I figured it out and odin'd back to stock root. I've resolved to just tweak stock 2.2
So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Why not find a rom with a hacked. apk? And move it to system-> app. How about a new kernel? I assume you are rocking a stock kernel being stock rooted. Also there are flashable zips floating around too for 2.2. I won't link it for you do to not being within 700 miles of my pc.
Sent from my T959 using xda premium
Actually I'm rocking the bali x kernel big fan of that battery life.
Still looking for linked apks. I'm not really looking to flash a new rom until D9 comes out, for now I'm happy with my stock root with launcher pro and a couple other toys. Just looking for that sweet gps and cam fix

I was reading the xylon thread and saw a couple of people saying they were having issues with the build, have you got problems with it?
Im running the RemICS JB 4.2.1 and it's good but im open to try another rom. So what can you tell me about Xylon?
Well so far I've got really good battery life but USB internal to computer causes softboot. Rebooting causes phone to return to original launcher. Nothing major but can be annoying at times

If you really want a stable and fast Rom then stick with one of fishman or mopedryders 2.2 roms. Your phone may handle ice cream and jb roms fine but my phone didn't like them at all and there is usually something that doesn't work on jb, gps , reboot issues etc.

Any rom by fishman or mopedryder, bi winning redux is one deployed by both those guys but my favorite is fishmans axura resurrected rom. Just make sure you go back to stock before flashing if you are on jb.

Really that's weird, I'm on fishmans deranged 9 rom right now and instagram works fine. It should work fine with axura since these roms are pretty much identical except for the theme. Does instagram install and not open or are you not able to download it from the play store?

No problem. I like deranged a lot, it's a blue theme and everything works fine. I usually alternate between axura, blue Frankenstein and deranged 9. I'm a sucker for blue ha.
