Porting Vibrant Rom to I9000

Ok so I have everything working except two things,
1) Email app can't connect to some email hosts such as msn
2) GPS doesn't work, even the GPS symbol doesn't even come up in the status bar when google maps tries to get a lock.
Help please

You are going to need to remove/replace
bin/
agpsd which is T-959
and
lib/
libclientgps.so , libhardware.so , libhardware_legacy.so , libsecgps.so
at a minimun
Before that, you should post this in q&a though ...

Can I ask why one would want to use this as opposed to the I9000 Rom?

Not want to use it, but a increase in options for roms. I know we have really good roms such as jim, darky, mine etc. But its nice to have a option although I do think we now have better roms.

Thanks but this isn't a general q&a as this is actually a place where I have the rom working

Raaah forget Vibrant ROMs, i think it's time we started concentrating on getting MIUI fully ported, but obviously that won't happen until Cyanogen Mod 7 is released.
Anyway my bad for off topicness would be cool to see another variant of ROMs.

I do agree, but its not that far away into the future, I mean supeecirios kernel runs the nexus s file system so when miui for nexus s is released, we also automatically get it as well because of the kernel , but it needs some bug fixing, and I wish supercurio makes a update.zip which installs it in the system rather than in data so we also can have a recovery and don't feel like gingerbread is temporary

ginerbread rolled out

Well got a surprise last night when i plugged my phone in the pc and kies came up with a firmware upgrade for my galaxy s .
firmware gingerbread nejvd
baseband i9000NEJV5
2.3.3
installed ok but only after doing a hard reset and wiped everything off my phone .
phone would not start up .it would only get to the operator logo 3 then turn off and try rebooting itself.
so far so good seems faster than froyo ,hope they have sorted out the microphone gain when recording a video expecially at a gig everything was very distorted before .
on the face of it all i can see different so far is the battery icon is slightly different ,
will play more in due course see what else is different
Martin

Not officially available. That's why all the current 2.3.5 NxS _custom_ ROMs come with a 2.3.4 fingerprint.

Still no sign of it... Not impressed

You could always build it from AOSP yourself and flash it.

Won't come before ICS anymore is MY guess, there's way too much to do to get it out to all NxS NON-4G versions with only minor improvements. Unless Google wants to seriously push Wallet within the next few months, but they don't have to atm.

Why do you think you need it? What issues that 2.3.5 resolves are affecting you?

I'd say the recent Android Browser Cross Application Scripting vulnerability demonstrated by IBM is something that I'd like to see get fixed and which is fixed in 2.3.5.

In case some people wonder, it's possible to delete a map, although there is no such option in the settings
if you want to delete a map you wrongly downloaded, go to /sdcard/android/data/com.navfree.android.osm.all/files/userdata/maps and delete the maps folder you don't need.

This is great for those of us that do not want to run a custom CM JB rom due to many issues, so I am wondering if there is a AOSP ICS rom so we can try this out. Any suggestions?

I flashed - mikeyxda_v7_Offline.zip. and can text to add a message to add an appointment to my calendar. Most everything works and works great. The sports cards work for baseball but have not gotten football to work yet. i travel and the program is get when you are out of town.

Not sure if you have been following this thread "[MOD][ICS] The Google Now for ICS Project [ARMv6 & v7]" but this is where I got my information to flash. the first two posts are pretty helpful but a lot of the posts are pure BS, but, the last few posts starting at 5256 seem to have some worth. Thinking of make that change.
Good luck - this is one of the best programs for our tab - use it more each day. Please let me know if I forgot any other information that might be helpful to you. By the way I did Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache before flash.
I just hope this will work with SK806's next ROM which i hope will be out soon.:fingers-crossed:

just set it up on the stock rom and so far everthing seems to be working (only thing is that can not set up custom teams but hopefully it will be fixed soon). Glad that i did not have to install custom JB roms to get this awsome feature.

Glad it worked out for you.
I understand the NFL football does not work because the Google now service has not turned it on....... if you want to see how it will work search for a baseball team and you will get lots of flash cards regarding that team depending on the settings you use. I check the site i mentioned in the previous post frequently will post here is a major update happens. :good:

Hi,
Ive seen it is a major memory eater too. This proces cannot be killed by ending the program, but the task has to be killed.
