+1, if your phone is to slow, you probably want to upgrade, but to each their own.

Flash this and you will have a stable, fast Froyo ROM that will blow away any preconceived notions about Eclair. There is even an Odin image that you can use.

I was referring to upgrading to a custom ROM, the one wood suggested would be a perfect example.

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

I used rom manager and I just flashed bionix from axura. It is running well and a lot better than I expected

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.

You will have to odin back to stock and check repartition and efs clear.
The 2.3 roms are still a bit buggy and are not complete, if you do not have Moderate to advanced flashing skills, then I would not recommend.

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

Just got a new Fascinate and im lost i had a mytouch 4g and it looks wayyyy different to root and get roms..so im just asking what is the best rom that is stable and gives great battery life? and is their a easy way to root?
Go to the development forum. There's a sticky titled "fascinate roll up thread." Start there.

Very good advice, I'm running miui version 1.9.16 with glitch kernel and is super stable for me and I love it, however generally speaking pry not as stable/everything works as powerwashed GB.

[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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833024&page=49
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.
