XDA for the Vibrant is dead.. I love our Dev's!!

I guess when your phone just runs amazing it is getting hard to make it better. I keep trolling XDA for something worth reading or trying but nodda.
Thanks Dev for all that you have done but are we coming close to the end of development for the Vibrant? Any insight as to what might be some things to look forward to in the future?
Updated - Changed the title because I meant no disrespect
When I say no ROM worth trying I guess I need to be more specific. I currently run Bionix-V and right now don't see any ROM that is a huge improvement worth switching from.. But to clarify there are several very good ROM's out for our Vibrants..

maybe you should wait til they release a source code for 2.2
actually, just leave now.

Wow dont you think thats a slap in the face. I mean I actually think eugene is working with source first of all.
Secondly I "hear" they are working on gingerbread as there is a proof of concept in the development forum.
So once again.. dont you think this is a slap in the face to those who are working are to bring more features to us?

As for your questions, we still have Sense to look forward to (Barak, if you some how see this, good luck with your family situation,) new ROMs from TW/Eugene, etc. Possibilities are truly endless.

WHAT???? "dont you think this is a slap in the face to those who are working are to bring more features to us?"
Are you smoking crack? I have donated and appreciate everything the Dev's have done and are doing to make our phones experience better.
But since the last few solid ROMS have come out for 2.2 there really has been little new development that actually improves your phones performance.

I'm confused by this post. Actually I'm very shocked by this post.
Did you even look at the Dev forum? There are a ton of ROMS and the ROMS available are continuously being updated , some even are getting 2 or more updates per week!
How can you say the Vibrant is dead?
I can answer my own question:
1. You are just trolling OR
2. You need to learn how to use your reading comprehension skills and read more
Because there is plenty of action going on for development for the Vibrant. Give it some time man. The source code that is in the Dev section is a leaked one that Eugene got his hands on. Samsung hasn't even officially released it yet. Once they do there will be a swarm of updates to these ROMS we have already AND there will be new ones.
IDK, sorry for my rant. I usually don't even reply to these kind of seemingly troll posts but you probably should just take the other guys suggestion and just leave the forums. Because you just slapped the great Devs that help us all make our Vibrants one of the most customizable phones around.
Don't bash any devs with a statement like yours, and then at the end of your post thank the devs. That brief "thanks" to the devs doesn't take away the SLAP in the face you just gave them
PS. Just for your info and a reply to your last statement about performance enhancements to the Vibrants... My phone KILLS my girlfriends stock Nexus S in performance and looks in every way possible. I can't even bog my phone down and I'm not even overclocked. I'm running a "stock" Bionix V 1.2

stop feeding the trolls

Ha.. This is funny.. People get fired up and I am not even attacking anyone. I just was trying to strike of some interesting conversation on future project or things to look forward to in the near future.
Geeze peeps.. Chillz the hell out...

It's a trap!

Let me get my .02 in before this thread gets justifiably locked.
To the OP, what are you looking for? To say this forum is dieing is a joke.....right??
At one point there was only TW, Eugene, and Master posting up Roms; NOW we have about 6-7 options. The theming section is plastered with new options. 2.2 just got released and it opened up more doors.
If you think it's dead then kindly depart, you and all you have contributed will be sorely missed. /sarcasm

No, you are not attacking anyone directly but you were also not "striking up interesting conversation". "forum is dead" and "no roms worth trying" is a matter of opinion which you are entitled to but not exactly a kind way of asking what's in the Vibrant developments future.

You have "striked" some conversation for sure. And my post wasn't attacking you so I'm assuming you weren't talking to me in your last reply?
Unfortunately your post comes across kind of negative towards the community of Devs that work very hard to keep giving us new stuff for our phones.
So maybe you had very good intentions and the words just came out looking bad in your post.
I mean it is very hard to express intent thru words on a page. With actual conversation in person your words come across better. So maybe you can edit your original post if you didn't mean it to be a slap in the face to the community of devs here?
If not then that's fine too. Everyone is entitiled to their opinions.

Gingerbread

Is the Vibrant General not the place to just have open discussions? Why all the neg responses? I'm a die hard fan of this forum and our vibrant community. I was just trying to strike some conversation.
I agree we have themes out the butt.. Great I have themed my phone to death..

Your wording is not very good, I'm sorry to say. When you say "there are no ROMs worth trying" it sounds like you're saying "there are a bunch of ROMs but they're all shyte." If that is not your intent, I hope you change you original post, because that's exactly what it sounds like.
If that is your intent, then you deserve all the flack that you're getting here

I agree, but Flagship has been beast for me!!

Not my intent at all..

This thread seems kind of silly since we've just started seeing kernels built from 2.2 source. It's kinda been the Holy Grail for many of us since the Froyo leaks began. Don't know about you, but I'm totally excited about Voodoo sound, overclocking, bln, ulf, etc., and all that with good battery life.
So really, if you think there's nothing exciting now, what exactly do you consider worthwhile?

Rom Comparison

I am looking for a feature comparison of ROMS, kinda like when you compare TV's. Has anyone compiled such a list? I have just started using MIUI and really love some of the features in it, but I have been getting horrendous battery life. So I thought I would try a CM build. I realize that they are going to be different, but it would be nice if you could see if there are similarities between the 2 or if it would be a new learning curve again.
I looked at the WIKI page for the ROMS but that is more of a general overview than what I was looking for.
I realize I am what I am looking for is most likely a pipe dream but it can't hurt to ask and see if it exists. Oh and sorry in advance if this exists and I just missed it!
Thanks for the help and replies

This will PROBABLY go in the General section, but I could see why you posted it here
To my knowledge no such list exists beyond word of mouth. You would have to compile such a list

Basically you are going to have to read the threads of each Rom to see the differences. Someone here did create a website comparing Roms just like you are wanting. They also did the same thing with kernels. I am not sure if he is still updating the website, but the link to it is somewhere here. I believe it is in the Q&A section. If I find the link I will come back and post it here. This should have been posted in Q&A or general, but no big deal. Some people will think it's a big deal, but really it is an honest mistake.
I found this. It is a few video reviews of some of the more popular Roms here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841416
OK. Here is the link to the thread that will link you to skydeaner's website with reviews of Rom's, Kernel's and apps. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790559

Well MIUI (iPhone wanna be) is completely different than anything out there. All other ROM's would be pretty similar, besides CM that doesn't use Sense and one of the best Sense ROM's out there, Warm. Just try each one and see how you like it.

OMG that explains why I dislike MUIU.

Thanks for this, this is very helpful, especially the second link, its a nice consolidation of everything, plus the star ratings help to.
As for putting this in the wrong spot, thanks for not being to tough on me, I couldn't decide since it was a ROM question but not a ROM specific question I figured it could go into multiple places.
For the preference I do like sense but I also like the non-sense roms, I wish i had the technical know how to build one that would be perfect for me, but alas I may be a geek I am not a code-writing/understanding geek. MIUI seems to have really gone a unique direction, that's why i think I am drawn to it but I did try CM last night and it has some nice features as well. And Koni's ROM is outstanding. I need to hit the lottery, then I will just buy enough EVO's to have a different ROM on each one. Damn all these good ROMS.
Thanks for the help again, i do appreciate it!!

In fairness, the statement "Well MIUI (iPhone wanna be) is completely different than anything out there. All other ROM's would be pretty similar, besides CM that doesn't use Sense and one of the best Sense ROM's out there, Warm. Just try each one and see how you like it." is just as ignorant if not MORE lol
ROMs are VERY different. Screenshots of the homescreen don't tell the whole story

Tis true. I haven't even tried then all yet, though I try

it also depends on your device and how you have it set up on how good your battery life is. each rom run's different on each phone and so does each kernel.Because if one kernel is great for you it might be a bad one for me or someone else.Just like a rom if one is great for you it might be bad for me or someone else.

With a lot of them as far as Sense roms go, it's mainly a difference in looks. CM is asop based, I assume muiu is asop based somewhere maybe, but totally revamped UI. I like CM7 the most personally, Sense looks okay but to me it became annoying after awhile.

Why do people seem to be so sensitive in this forum? Can't someone post a comment about how they feel about something, like say a ROM or a Kernel, without 20 people jumping down his/her throat. Relax people, it's just an opinion. They aren't talking smack about your mom or your family, so chill out a bit and let people express their thoughts without getting all up in arms. Jeez...

The first post after OP already beat us to the punch, but he/she added a few smilies so it didn't seem like trolling.
Also, while the title of the thread could have been better, I will agree that posting this here really isn't that big of a deal as compared to other threads that are just blatant ignorance.
Here is why:
OP clearly stated the unsureness of where to post. OP clearly seems to have done some research. There is a sticky up top with ROM info that *can* be used as somewhat of a comparison, but it really seems to be lacking. The post really seems to have pointed out a weak spot, and there was some decent discussion about it.

There seem to be so many variables which affect comparisons between ROMS that any single summary would probably not be accurate for lots of people. For one, your EVO behaviour with any ROM, from what I have read and personally experienced, can be dramatically influenced by your hardware version.
Some EVOs don't like undervolting or overclocking as much as others so you may find a ROM/Kernel combination totally unstable while others quote it as rock solid.
I also have different experience with the same ROMS depending on whether I wipe/flash with CW or Amon recovery (Amon is much better IMHO).
I am trying to do everything at once with my phone... Primary internet connection at home, business phone (can phone and hotspot at the same time on 4G) and use navigation a lot etc...
So far I usually end up running into random rebooting with any dev. ROM and have to wipe/reflash to get better again.. Again, this may be a quirk with my phone...
Best advice is to try them all and see what works best for you... One improvement to the ROM Wiki could be to add info on what works and what doesn't for each ROM. For instance no 4G or no GPS for any ROM would be a deal breaker for me.

there have been other threads just like this though. You could've taken the time to search. I think there was one in the Q&A section about the whereabouts of Team Whiskey. And if you dont find your answers here, you can always check on Team Whiskey's Forums. So far they haven't dropped a new ROM or anything, just working on FFC from what i read on their forum and last time they posted here they mentioned they were working on 2.3 for the vibrant. Considering the fact that the only 2.3 leaks available out now are for the i9000, i dont see a stable 2.3 ROM for the vibrant being released from them anytime soon. It's going to take a while seeing from the current 2.3 roms we have so far. Honestly i'm not expecting anything stable until we get an official 2.3 for the vibrant.

Stop man, you're just adding to the unneeded drama around here. I usually love your posts but we've really got to stop drawing lines in the sand over such petty things. Both teams are great, and manage things differently (and even that's not gonna be so different anymore). Im a Bionix user, and I've been wanting to try some EDT roms, Im just not as flash happy as I used to be. So if it works the way I feel it should, I don't see any reason to keep flashing. I used to though, so I understand the people that do. But we've really got to stop bashing one team or the other.
Im not talking about you when I say this dligon, but with people around here its: so much to criticize, so little to contribute.
Also CM simply is not an option at its current state for people like me, who use GPS daily. I used CM exclusively on my G1, so I know how great it is, but I didn't crack open my phone for the hardware fix for nothing.

New Version of Bionix is out

Team Whiskey just announced the release of the next release after Bionix V 1.3.1, They're calling it Bionix Next Gen.
Figured everyone would be interested to know, as the 1.3.1 thread has about a million hits.
Head over to their forums at teamwhiskey.com to get their full instructions, otherwise just go to download here: sourceforge.net/projects/bionix-v/files/

This was already released a few months ago, but was in BETA and only for Donators, guess they released for everyone.
cheers!

Froyo? Not interested

I also wonder why they have stuck with 2.2 and only released one 2.2.1 that never got updated after the first day or so. Wonder what it is about the difference that they don't want to develop.

They ARE working on a GB rom, as heard..
Their probably releasing a 2.2 rom because.. well... people currently think their.. DEAD and they want people to know their still here, GB is probably hard as hell to work with.

their new rom NextGen was publicly released today on the TW forums. The OP is just slightly misinformed. IMO it seems to run better than v 1.3.1

Next Gen
1) based on Bionix 1.3.2 not 1.3.1
2) 1.3.1 ran like BUTTER< had damn near NO issues and was tough to improve on
3) Next Gen build was lead by a different group of devs that have contributed but not lead the charge
a) They have put together the BEST ROM the Team has done to date.
4) They are working on GB. With Samsung not hooking up some Vibrant GB source there are still holes, and we all know that the team is all about QUALITY!!!!!
5) Next Gen was a Beta for donators, because the doantor is the one most likely to give feedback on bugs (my guess).
Give it some love if you want. I have had NOTHING but great results. Battery, service, and GPS have been Phenomenal.....

If a developer can't keep in touch and talk about stuff, they are of no interest to me. And this long for an update, really?!?!
I really like viralblack and sombionix... but heck, a lot of people on here probably do not even know who they are.

You know they used to practically run these vibrant forums right? Sombionix would try to answer everyone's questions and be open with people. He ended up having the same problem that all of the greats had, and that's growing intolerant to whiny noobs that complained too much. I don't blame those guys for leaving and staying out of touch. It's not like they're obligated to us for anything. Long live Sombionix and his whole TW team. Imagine putting crazy long hours into a hobby, and once you were finished the people looking at your hard work criticize you and say it sucks even though they couldn't do any better. I don't know about you but it would drive me away too.

You know they used to practically run these vibrant forums right? Sombionix would try to answer everyone's questions and be open with people. He ended up having the same problem that all of the greats had, and that's growing intolerant to whiny noobs that complained too much. I don't blame those guys for leaving and staying out of touch. It's not like they're obligated to us for anything. Long live Sombionix and his whole TW team.

I understand what you mean, but Team Whiskey should atleast talk to us a little or even a bit instead of AT ALL

the thing is, they still do. people just assume that if it isn't Som or Viral, then it's not TW. But the throne has been handed down, so to speak, to a new group.

Sigh, they said a while ago that they weren't going to release anything on XDA anymore. They grew tired of XDA so they decided to just post on their forums/website only. It's true that the Bionix developing has been handed down to someone else, Nopcodex90.

Ok, let me clear some smoke.
1. NextGen is still 2.2, based from the mysterious 1.3.2 build with some more tweaks by Nopcodex90
2. I'm not sure if Shorty, Alexia, or Nopcodex90 still gets on XDA, but i'm still here....but T.W. forums is where we mostly reside at now....Som, Viral, and Krylon are and will forever be the original founders of Team Whiskey..and with all the great, solid ROMs they put out...they deserve a break if they want one, and while they're taking a break...Shorty, Nopcodex90, grendel905, Alexia,creator2456, AlterBridge86, Allen, MacGyver, PezLee, }SkOrPn--', KidDynamite, along with myself is holding down the fort at the forums. We are a team....we are Team Whiskey, and we will never die.

Well making it to the forum is half the battle. Now you need to use your skills and read like the rest of us do. Info will not just be handed over at your request.
Happy hunting!

Seriously, there are several links that list out different Roms.
Read up on them and figure out which one sounds the best to you, the flash it.
It's not like you can't keep switching...
Good luck!

Too many to list but flash away at a few of them-we have too many great developers here. Just make sure to thank them.

Maybe trying to get to that almost attainable "10th post"? Maybe not. I can't tear myself away from the TeamHeroc rom for very long. I like having the options for all of the variety the Hero gets from some giving devs though. :')
