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

[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.

You can just flash. Do a data wipe, the op for the rom tells you all the instructions

The general consensus is that Bionix V flashes well on top of other roms. Official TeamWhiskey forums say that you do not need to disable voodoo if coming from one of their previous roms, but you may want to disable it if you're coming from Axura or the like just to be safe.

[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.
