Easy to install 2.2 rom?

Hey guys-
I was wondering if anybody would be willing to create an easy to install froyo rom for the vibrant that could be installed through rom manager? If it's possible and someone would be willing to take on the challenge I and many other noobs out there would be much ablidged. Thanks in advance.

CM 6 is coming. For now enjoy the great job done so far

if you take a look at other threads under this forum, there has been work at porting 2.2 to this phone. Some difficulties in getting a fully functional build. I would recommend using the search function before starting a new thread, especially when posting under development, as you'll prolly get flamed pretty heavily.

I'm totally aware there's a 2.2 rom out for the vibrant already but what I'm asking for is a much easier to install version of froyo.

Doesn't exist. Reading comprehension - try it.

It does exist. It was the international Froyo leak but it is not a complete Froyo since it is missing JIT as well as other things. That leaked ROM is incomplete and is not stable for everyday use. Especially on a Vibrant, there are a lot of bugs with it and it is not recommended to be using it as the daily ROM.
It's better off waiting for 2.2 to release by Samsung or the CM team. It's just around the corner. Be patient.

They're working on it, once Eugene has it fixed, he's going to make a flashable .zip file for easy installing. He posted this in his 2.2 thread.

Exactly - there is no Froyo rom that is much easier to install than the leaked int'l one, let alone a stable one. What he's asking for doesn't exist. There's no secret, stable, froyo.zip floating around that people just aren't talking about.

I havnt seen a single rom on here that ISNT easy to install....
just waiting to see flame city for this one, similar questions have been asked time and time again... plus this isnt Q&A forum.....

Well for anyone that didn't use ODIN as there method of rooting and who doesn't want to spend more time then having to flash a basic .zip file, than there are some harder to install roms.

I'm aware nothing like that exists yet, that's why in the original post I requested someone create one, not if there is one already.

This forum has become like a kindle box just one spark turns us all in to flames. Calm down guys and remember you have something other than your E(letronic)ego to work about. Im sure you have cut infront of a car before not trying to be rude just let this pass and answer the damn question.
So far theres not an easy way to get a fully functional 2.2 however as with anything give it time and we will see it some time.

i do believe that everyone on here wants that including all the developers working on it. if we were happy with 2.1 then we would have stuck with the original os that samsung put out for the vibrant. really did you have to ask this here? or at all? its technology its always growing. give it time!

Fair enough - my bad, OP. If it was easily doable though, you can believe it would be done. I can't dev, so I wait and watch, because the guys (and gals) that can are doing whatever they can.

I was wondering if anyone would be able to create an easy to flash Gingerbread ROM for me. I thought that I could sit home on my ass while Smeone else does the work and afterwards complain about how slow the development is on Android 3.1 Horseradish......and do it all for free.

SGS doesnt have a stable cyanogent yet...haha

So I recently went on the cyanogen website to see their news "CyanogenMod-6.1 Stable Has Landed!" I know that the SGS is different from other android phones so I laughed. Of course I had to look at the stable downloads, all of the phones had stable downloads except for our SGS.
Am I angry, nope...just found it funny. Damn you samsung :]
Oh wait HTC Desire HD doesn't have one

Well with only one person who knows about coding working on the epic port of cm6 its not gonna happen anytime soon unless some people are willing to step up and help out.

yeah I agree, I'm trying to learn some coding and developing, but I am no where near the skill level that would be needed. So for right now I'm just gonna try to make some simple apps to start out.

Also fyi there I am not poking fun at the sgs phones. The reason of why there is no stable mod out is because sprint chose to create the platform differantly. that causes our single dev, not noobnl to try to code and work it out by himself. Like I said if I knew the coding I would help the only dev working on the mod.

Coming to the streak from the inspire

I just moved from inspire to streak.
A bit missing AMOLED of inspire, especially for movies.
BTW, get use to it now. And really happy with larger display.
May SS Galaxy player turn to a phone, that will be perfect.

Re SS Galaxy; Check out Viewsonic ViewPad7 Tablet/Phone. Definitely need to use bluetooth for talking or use tablet speakers.
But, I am still partial to the Streak

Yes Rico, I too am very intrigued by the ViewPad 7.... but given its size, I'd strictly be a closet user, and probably never in public (other than use it like a tablet only). It's bad enough already whenever I'm "Streaking" in public..... I hear "Run for your lives, it's a giant python"

Lol, Hildebrandt! Excellent descriptions! Id be totally out of the closet with a 7" (screen). Especially if im using a bluetooth. I would think others would be intrigued with a tablet that can also do calls. As far as "Streaking" in public, dude! Take their startled responses as a compliment when they comment about our pythons!
Think about it, after the initial shock when they see our (Streak), whats usually their next response: "..Can I hold it?.."

Unfortunately, I already get approached by way too many curious strangers when I whip it out of my pants in public.... "I've never seen one that big", or, "Dude, put that thing back in your pants before you injure somebody" On another note, in my neck of the woods (DC), using my phone in public is a good way to get it snatched by thieves and politicians (because they all dress identically and some people pose as both)
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App

I hear you! And I've come to appreciate and accept that the power of the Streak has no boundaries. Ive all but given up fighting off guys walking over to my cubicle at work , "staring at it" then whipping theirs out and laying theirs next to mine and say "just how big IS that thing!". Things are big in here in Texas, but I guess the Streak is practically the 8th Wonder , outdoing the dome!
Wow, thats scarey, in DC, crooks and politics both coveting yours and if you pull it out in public, its hard to tell which grabbed it. Well, at least congressman Weiner aint one of 'em. But, watch out for that Boner, I mean Boehner!

ROFL @ Rico...... Funny thing is, I'm on "The Hill" almost every day, too..... Yeah, trust me, I know to be on the lookout for other German Boners who, unlike me, are wanna be political climbers LOL

Yeah i know but awhile back there was a thread about tv-out.. im guessing vs the headphone jack so maybe while they are working on cm9 they might find away to get it working..just saying.. no big deal but would be nice to bring a new feature to our epic 4g..

My impression from skimming that ongoing discussion was- the final consensus was that our phones don't have the hardware to support it. Despite probably some misleading tidbit of information a long time ago.

I could live without e911 the same way I did with cm7 awhile back. I want this so bad!!!!!!

Ability to live without it or not, they won't release it. Its somewhere in the spectrum of "unwritten rule of XDA" to potentially a law, I'm not sure. Regardless its a good idea. Don't want a buggy ROM to lead to someone dying!

ICS Sense ROMS Camera

Hi folks. I was going to flash ICS on my friend's DHD but how strange that no ROM supports camera. AOSP roms do have a working Camera. Is there any work around for this?

Ok, I guess that attacking one each other is not solution. We are here to share knowledge and our flash addiction. There´s no need to answer like that. You are senior member and you know the rules. You could have done it a bit different. ICS Camera issue have been debated many times. ICS AOSP roms have working cameras but not video recording...that is stated in the corresponding threads. The solution should be able as soon as HTC releases the 3.0 Kernel or the first ICS Sense update is rolled out. That is also in the forums, there´s also a specific thread for it. So, don´t get that angry and show that u are different in your manners if you feel offended by someone...if not you just show that are the same....

It is on the main forum that says android 4.0 coming July- August, It is beyond annoying when this is all you see when CLEARLY in all sense 4.0 threads are saying they are waiting for kernel 3.0
I feel bad for the devs they must facepalm at all these people who can't read/search
