DarkyROM 10.2.2 on T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Vibrant (T959) - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I will show you how to flash DarkyROM 10.2.2 on your t-mobile vibrant, after the following steps,you will have superb battery life, and everything is working except GPS.
Update Nov 12/2011: new steps, easier then before!
I had previously installed CM7 on my t959, however I am not happy with it because:
1: GPS not working
2: Battery life is so bad... won't last a day.
Follow these steps to flash DarkyROM 10.2.2 on your T959.
(by no means this is a guide and I am not responsible if you brick your phone or cause any damage to your phone)
1: following this link to install DarkyROM 10.2 RE
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/odin-darkyrom-10-2-resurrection-gt-i9000.4272/
2: install I9000 vibranted vG.3.0b kernel using CWM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1299185
3: Install KB5 modem via CWM. see attachemnt.
4: Install DarkyROM App from the market
5: Download DarkyROM 10.2.2 zip file, put it in the root of internal sd card.
6: in DarkyROM App, deselect kernel and modem (so it won't overwrite your T959 kernel and modem with i9000 ones), then select install zip from sd card in darkyROM app, if asked give root permission to darkyROM app.
7: After phone rebooted, flash the key update zip mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1299185
Done.
BTW, GPS not working, otherwise everything works.
Notes:
darkyROM 's modem is not compatible with TMobile or Mobilicity's AWS band, so you need a tmobile modem. here you go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868774
you cannot directly flash the modems using odin (always stuck in my case). So use this tool to convert cwm mode from amend to edify:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903598
I used KB5 modem, then flashed the converted modem via cwm...
You need to install a i9000 based vibrant (T959) kernel, otherwise you will have not audio.
Please report back whether it worked for your or not.
thanks
BTW, the following attachments are converted edifying scripting modem file (KB5)
(I flashed KB5 unsigned below via CWM)
I haven't tested other modems, I picked up KB5 just because it is new.

No issues now

No issues now...

ok, on Darkyrom 10.2.2 a few days now, superb battery life! I was able to use the phone for 1d 12 hours without charging. Compare to CM7, the very same battery won't last a day/

solid battery life... my battery life is just terrible, im on cm7 as well, if someone could get the sound working on this i would rock this rom... i just have to have audio... i listen to alot of music at work

I've re-read this post twice and still don't know what the hell they're talking about.

They're talking about selling crack rocks in a darky room with sound proof walls that runs on batteries

Use a diffrent kernel an uv an turn off data when not in use

I had that problem too. It turned out that after I flashed darkyROM 10.2.2, I following the instruction below to fix keymap problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1252908
So I revert the change and rebooted my phone, home key worked.
So, make sure you did NOT do any keymapping change except the volume up/down fix mentioned in post #1.
Please let me know

DarkyROM 10.2.2, with T-mobile Vibrant & KB5 modem, confirmed working, nice work
I installed DarkyROM 10.2.2 resurrection package JVT-Base-I9000.tar today.
Followed your guide converting the KB5 modem zip to edify format.
With the kernel from DarkyROM ([email protected] #DarkCore_4.1.JVT) I had no internal speaker on phone calls (but speaker phone worked).
Changed kernel to Talon-SH-T5s_VIBRANT.zip and now I have internal speaker on phone calls.
Nice work.
Thanks man.

Glad I helped!
How is your battery? last longer?

ICS rom to test?

Hi, i've been awaiting the arrival of ics patiently, more specifically CM9. What i'm wondering is if there is a decent version that is easy to install just so i can test it out, as i have not even seen it yet other than half our roms trying to imitate it. I see all kinds of bogus on the international forum but i'm not about to try and install one. I would just like to backup my rom, install, test and flash back UnNamed. Thanks.
None for I777 until the official I9100 release - call audio and buttons will remain broken until kernel source exists.
I suppose if you wanted to you could flash the CM9 alpha for i9100 just to mess around. Make a backup of UnNamed . Flash and Hellraise a i9100 ROM- I used Criskelo ROM. Then i made another backup and flashed CM9. Its booted fine and was able mess around. Pretty smooth overall. Texting and wifi worked. But like Entropy said, audio and soft buttons are broken so don't plan on making phone calls or using all your apps. Then just restore your backup of UnNamed to get back to your happy place.
sent from my SGSII... suckas
Hah! Yes that would be quite nice to return to a happy place. I'll try it out, sounds like it won't be too much trouble. I would just like to see it and feel it out.

Just be sure to read the OP and follow the instructions .. you'll have to flash the GApps and face unlock.. other modems available too. All in the OP of the CM9 alpha i9100 thread.
sent from my SGSII... suckas
And do NOT flash one of the releases that includes a PIT file or any that includes bootloaders (boot.bin or Sbl.bin) - you WILL mess up your phone with those.
PIT flashing will be very difficult to recover from, bootloader flashing can hardbrick you.
I have tried each release of cm9 for the international gs2 as they have come out just for kicks and they run great. Just have to use the home button as a back button and the Mic doesn't work.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA App
I have done a couple things here, 1 is I used mobile Odin (which does NOT flash bootloaders) and have installed and tested two of the i9100 Samsung leaks. I have also tried EVERY version of Team Hacksung ICS just to mess with it. I even have it Android backed up.
Now for the IMPORTANT PART before you do either of these. First off I am on CM7 so maybe that has made it easy/easier to do these testing.
1.MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP of your rom.
2. DO NOT FLASH ANY OF THE SAMSUNG LEAKS SINCE THEY HAVE BOOTLOADERS. I ONLY DID IT SINCE I USED MOBILE ODIN WHICH WOULD NOT FLASH THE BOOTLOADERS.
3. The third thing (or first priority for me at least) was to already have a version of my current rom (cm7 in my case) that I extracted the rom, changed the UPDATER-SCRIPT which is found in META-INF/COM/GOOGLE/ANDROID/UPDATER-SCRIPT by ONLY removing all the first lines that deal with get-prop. Then I backed out and rezipped the complete rom. Moved it to my sdcard just in case my Android didn't work.
The Team hacksung ICS is really nice and I just wish audio on phone calls worked. I could live with the HOME button being a back button for a bit and the menu button as menu without the other two buttons. Fun to try but don't blame me if you mileage doesn't work the same as mine. I have not tried it from any other rooms than cm7.

[Q] Calling problems on my SGS2

Hi Guys,
I've run into a bit of a problem and cannot find my way around it, my phone can be used for everything except making a damn phone call i.e. I can make calls, folks can see me calling and receive it but I hear a blank on my end and so does the receiver, no dialogue. I tried everything listed on other topics but cant seem to get phone calls working again....so please help....
I know exactly when this started happening so here's the details
I was running the Foxhound 3.0 ROM listed in the following thread and it was running perfect
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486199
then I found a new ICS theme posted on the following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334922
and tried flashing that according to every step mentioned and although the ROM was running ok, I couldnt access system settings because my only option available was NOVA settings, my back button, phone calls & wifi wasnt working.
I looked into some of threads posted on the forum listed below and tried out every step to fix the problem but to no avail.

List of methods attempted
1. Restore mirror from my stock rooted ROM - fixed wifi but no phone calls
2. Restore mirror from ICSrewd ROM - same result
3. Used ODIN to go back to Unrooted Stock - still no phone calls
Kernel + non-rooted UCKH7 system package
4. Used ODIN to flash a different Kernel with root - same result
Kernel + cache + rooted UCKK6 system package
5. Full wipe and reflashed ICSrewd - same result.
Now i have so much info cluttered in head that I'm experiencing what people call 'writer's block' or what I would call 'Brain Dissolution' :-(
Can anyone please suggest a solution for this? My current phone deets are as follows
- At&t Samsung Galaxy SGH i777
- Android 2.3.6 Baseband i9100XXLPH
- Siyah v2.6.7
- Build ICSrewd v2.0.1 KL1

You got an i9100 modem on your device from something you flashed (probably the theme package from the i9100 forums - but I didn't d/l it to look) as evidenced by your baseband reporting i9100XXLPH.
Though I think some of the packages you have tried flashing to fix it have modems, I would go to the appropriate modems thread (I think they are linked from the sticky in general) and grab whichever i777 modem you were running before and flash that...

ICScrewD should have given you the UCKH7 modem. Not sure why it didn't overwrite your i9100 modem. As I haven't been in this situation to have to get out of it, there may be more to it. My first step would be trying to flash just the correct modem package over what you currently have...other than that, others have been in this situation - search is your friend.

Ok I was still on ICSrewd when I tried flashing UCKH7 but it didnt overwrite the i9100 modem even after multiple flashes. I tried doing it thru ODIN and it still failed. So I went back to the Stock ROM and re-tried it and guess what....success!! ......which is weird, I'm not sure if it is an issue with ICSrewd new version 2.0.1...anyhow...now I'm experiencing ridiculous battery drain, so should I try various modem combinations to see which one works?

After all that flashing, you'll probably see heavy battery drain for a few days. I usually have to go 3 battery cycles full to empty (which is 3 days for me) before I see stable battery behavior after flashing new roms.

I should've read this earlier
What I did instead was flash the turkbey ROM and went thru 2 cycles with it already so now I'm seeing some level of stability i.e. 19 hrs of battery time approx with about 5 hrs of Screen On time, which is pretty decent I guess.
Thanks for advice mate.

[Q] Problems after flashing my phone. Help!

I have a bell Galaxy S2. Today I rooted it and after hours of confusion, I finally managed to install resurrection remix 4.04 ICS on my phone.
So far I've run into tons of issues:
1) No GPS
2) No wifi (stuck on 'obtaining IP address, unlikely that this is my network's fault)
3) No software buttons, so I can't multitask (have to use task killer to kill unused apps right now)
4) Rom Control crashes everytime I go into the Navigation bar page
The phone in it's current state is useable, but I will go back to stock settings if I can't fix these problems. Maybe there is a better ROM out there? Though I heard resurrection remix is the best one. Also, could it be that I installed the wrong kernel? The one I installed is:
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5
Can somebody help me out? Any tips would be appreciated.
EDIT: I just realized that USB connectivity (file transfer) doesn't work either - not even in clockwork menu!

Sounds like you might have flashed the wrong kernel for your phone.
did you first check what was the original kernel on your phone? acutally, run me through your root process so i can figure where you went wrong, because the Resurrection remix rom is just about perfect
I know it was KG2 kernel originally. Don't remember the other numbers.
I'm now on a different kernel because when I used KG2, the phone wouldn't work at all (the buttons were screwy).
The process went something like this:
1. Rooted KG2 kernel installed
>Phone still works like before, but rooted
2. Put Res remix rom on my phone's storage
3. Go into clockwork recovery
4. Flash/Recovery
Format /system
Wipe Cache
5. Install ROM from SD card - twice (since the video I was watching told me to do it twice)
>Phone turns on but the buttons don't work so I can't navigate menus
6. Install CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5
>Buttons sort of work now but lots of problems
>All of my old files/music are still on the phone despite all that format/recovery stuff. Is that normal?
Now when I try to install KG2 kernel phone doesn't even turn on. If it helps, the phone currently tells me the baseband is I9100MUGKG2
k, yep you missed the gapps install. did you make a backup in CMW recovery before you flashed remix?

whats wrong with you brother? installing CF-root on an AOKP rom???? CF-root is matched with the Kernel not with the Baseband.
Yourself dont know what is being flased on what.....did you make sure of your model before flashing there are many S2s I9100 /I9100G / I9100M / 9100T many more...
please read all the instrction first before attempting anything my friend...There is no substitute for reading and learning for comprehension .it is not like that any thing can be applied on anything.

Ok, some good news.
I installed the CF-ROOT KG2 kernel.
I went into recovery, formatted/wiped everything that needs to be done. (Then USB connectivity began to work!) so I put a 2.3 Cyanogen Mod on there and now everything seems to work (USB, WIFI) except for the home button. I still can't exit out of applications.

Yes but I can't find any other rooted kernels out there that will work for my phone. I've googled it but all the GS2 rood/mod tutorials I've seen use CF-Root.
If you can let me know what kernel or rom to install that would be great. I'm not going to touch my phone until I figure out what to do.

Why not start with a working phone + a nandroid backup before you start playing with roms .
Stock rom + CWM and root kernel = Nandroid backup .
If CM does not work then read the CM thread faqs and instructions .

first of all get into reserection remix thread and ask whether this ROM supported for I9100M or not, if yes ask somebody can provide CWM flashable CM9 kernel (if it is the original kernel of your rom) then flash from CWM and try..

In-call sound is terrible

Hello, I have rooted with Ruby-faux123-kernel and Speed Rom 8.0, and my in-call sound is absolutely terrible. I can't make out what people are saying half the time. I tried re-flashing but problem persists. I feel like maybe this is a problem with the radio, can I update just that? Anyone have any advice, I can't find many similar problems on Google. The terrible sound persists even through the speaker, I don't have a blutooth to test with.

GO fresh... first flash a stock ROM via HBOOT menu
(1) download the factory stock ROM from above mentioned link,name it PH85IMG and put it on your externel sd card,power off device,pull out your battery,reinsert it,press volume down and power button until it boots into HBOOT menu...HBOOT should automatically start flashing your stock ROM,follow onscreen instructions.
after flashing stock....next flash 4ext recovery using hasoon toolkit from here..

(2) download a fresh copy of speed rom 8.0,put it on your externel sd card...boot into recovery,wipe data/factory reset,wipe cache+davlik,format all partitions except sd card,format your internel sd card then choose zip from sd card...after flashing reboot your device.
good luck with that...
and don't forget to hit the thanks button..
Hi Hatim, thanks for your help - I will try that tonight. So flashing the stock ruu first replaces the need to flash a newer Kernel? I was looking for the nearest to jelly-bean that I can get (though that may be my problem).

all the ROMS like speed rom,energy or viper amaze are not stock...they are custom ROMS,to resolve your problem you should flash a stock ROM first,stock ROM is the software that came with your phone straight out the box,untouched/unmodded/etc
after flashing stock all issues would be resolved,then after flashing 4ext recovery,now you are ready to flash a custom ROM like speed rom (which appers to me is the nearest to jelly bean working ROM)...and has a great battery life too...
[note] i posted earlier a link to download your desired stock RUU (ROM)
dont you know where the thanks button is...its just under my post on the left side.. hit it...

no problem valde :highfive:

No ringtone sound and Apollo not playing the ringtone files properly

Hello, forum members!
I'm in dire straits right now.
I upgraded my Samsung Vibrant T959 from the original stock version 2.1 to the following:
CM-10.1.3-stable-for-vibrant and gapps-jb-20121212-signed
I like it pretty well, except for the issue described below:
I do not hear incoming calls as there is no ringtone being emitted.
When I go to settings' menu, where one picks the melody, I used to be able to click on it and then hear it right away before selecting: now nothing happens.
Moreover, when I navigate to /system/media/audio/ringtones, where the files seem to be sitting, I can play a ringtone file in a player other than Apollo, but when picking Apollo, it does not play correctly.
So what it going on there, any ideas? And how can I fix it?
Thank you.

I sure did go pretty much straight from rooted stock 2.1 to CM10.1.3, except for the part, where I first loaded ClockworkMod Recovery from method B of rooting from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9375927#post9375927
I think, it was version 2 something. Then I went straight to flashing the ROM (did that replace the kernel as well?) and I think it had an even later version of CMR (6.0.3.6), which was installed before proceeding with the actual ROM flashing.
Any advice and/or links are highly appreciated!
Is "installing from zip" of CM10.1.3 once again safe? Will it wipe everything I already managed to install?
Should I try and install CM7 and then come back to CM10?
Thanks.

Going straight from 2.1 to cm10 causes issues. You should odin back to stock 2.1 and then you can flash cwm and then flash cm7 > cm10. Thats the recommended thing to do.
