ppl how to flash v4 over v3? with voodo lagfix on or off?

You can just flash right on top of V3 and leave the lagfix enabled. I would do the normal stuff when flashing a new ROM though: factory wipe/reset, wipe dalvik, etc. Make a nandroid backup, and use something like Titanium backup to backup and restore your apps after you flash.

Yes you can flash right over top v3 BUT... just flash the update... don't wipe anything... the update will do the rest. It's a non-wipe update so all of your app, settings and everything will be the same.

You can make a backup but if you like but I feel it's not needed.

Sorry. I didn't even realize you had uploaded a no-wipe update, heh. I thought he was talking about flashing the full V4.

Loving the new release, btw. Silky smooth as usual.

Hey fishman, would the Bali kernel in v4 work for Axura ROM? If so, how can I get the bali kernel zip file?

Get heating problem while charging. Anyone else ? Is there a fix ?

Whenever I changed kernals or cpu settings it seemed to get hot. I just ended up staying with stock kernal. It was really bad with the car charger. Not sure what the problem is ended up reflashing a couple times and the problem repeated.

Seems to be working normal on my phone even after flashing bali kernel. I didn't mess with CPU settings though, I'm not familiar with that yet.

Been happy running v2 for months. I load up a lot of stuff so I don't update every time. Now if I choose to go to v4 do I have to do the full install or could I update? Hate to lose or have to back up so much stuff.

    Bionix-V FishmanMod Rom / Bionix-V FishmanMod Odin Images

    This is a highly optimized, super tweaked ver of the org Bionix v1.3.1

    This IS Bionix v1.3.1... I take NO credit for building it. All credit goes to sombionix and Team Whiskey. I just updated apps, did a little more optimizing, added some tweaks, binaries and a little theming.

    V4
    Everything Final 3 was and faster...
    Updated, tweaked and Optimized every freakin' Damm system app I could.
    Removed MediaHub. Can be Downloaded from the Market.
    Fixed a few Framework images from the original Bionix that I missed in previous builds.
    Updated Google apps
    This thing is fast... fastest/smoothest Bionix build I've done.

    It takes a little to break in. But once it does... it's one big pile of melted butter. :eek: That didn't sound to good... LOL

    Final Update 3
    Added 9 Lockscreens (Thanks to jellette)
    Added Clock and am/pm hide (Thanks to jellette)

    Final Update 2
    Update Binaries - Added some CM7 binaries for more smoothness
    Added SD Card Speed Fix
    Added Transparency to Pulldown
    ... May take the phone a few hours to warm up, break-in new updates... It will get smoother through out the day

    Final Update
    Updated Google Apps to newest again... again
    Updated Juwe11 Ram Manager to v2.10
    Updated Binaries - A mix of Som's custom and fugu-tweaks
    Fixed Time Zone issue
    Added Expanded Settings Menu
    Added Widget Picker
    Added a few more Build.Prop tweaks
    ... maybe some stuff I forgot... again

    V3 update
    Updated Google Apps to newest again
    Updated Juwe11 Ram Manager to v2.02
    Updated Flash
    Added a few more Build.Prop tweaks
    ... maybe some stuff I forgot

    V2 update
    Restored original TW Touch sound
    Fixed oversized search bar theme error found in Bionix v1.3.1 (Thanks serendipityguy for pointing it out)

    V1
    Updated Google Apps to latest.
    Bali v1.8.8uv (Voodoo enable).
    KB5 Modem.
    Removed Min Mem tweak and added Juwe11 Ram Manager app (works much better).
    Add LG G2x Launcher, GB themed (seems to match the speed and feel of Bionix more so).
    Replaced Bionix v1.3.1 dialer with the one from Bionix v1.3.2test... it opens faster.
    Replaced Samsung Alarm Clock with AOSP... because I like it better.
    Add TW4Manager.apk for anyone wanting to install the TW4 Launcher.
    Changed TW Touch sound
    ... and a few more things I forget.

    Flash zip in CWM recovery, reboot, go into market and download "Font Changer"
    Open app, Allow SU, Fonts should already be there.... I choose "Roboto - Regular", app will ask to reboot.... YES

    Odin images:

    Bionix-V FishmanMod Slim Odin images

    These are a slimmed down ver of my Bionix-V FishmanMod Final 3 and Dark Slate theme.

    Like with my AOSP, all app that can be downloaded from the Market were removed (Gmail, Maps, Voice Search... etc)... if you want it, download it.
    I highly recommend installing "Ram Manager" by Juwe11 and set it to "Balance".

    I tested this on both of my Vibrant's with Odin v1.7. It worked perfectly coming back from CM7, CM9, a few Samsung GB roms and several Froyo roms.

    This will bring you back to Froyo just like JFD does to stock Eclair but... with either of my Bionix-V FishmanMod Slim roms. Allset, rooted and ready to go.

    Odin directions:
    Download and unzip. Flash with Odin just like you would JFD. Use pit 512 and make sure "Re-Partition" IS checked

    On first boot it will bring you into recovery. Do a "wipe data/factory reset" then reboot. The Odin image will reset the partitions back to RFS so if you were using Voodoo ext4, it will do the partitioning convertion at the Bali splash screen. Enjoy!

    The file does say test for Dark Slate but it's final... I was to lazy to rebuild, rename and or upload a new ver. Sorry

    Hey fishman, do you have any new projects for the vibrant other than Bionix-v? Or have you since abandoned projects for this outdated phone?

    My last project for the Vibrant was my Vibrant - Droid RAZR rom.

    I have upgraded to the GS3 and was able to build 1 rom for that but my dev'ing computer went down again. I'm waiting for my new MB and CPU to come in.

    I may, BIG MAYBE, do one more update for a rom or 2 for the Vibrant with some of the stuff I have learned since leaving for the GS3. But with being newly married and just finding out today we have a child on the way plus the end of the year crunch time starting at work... dev'ing time will be real hard to find.

    Any interest? Bionix-V FishmanMod Final 4

    Bionix-V FishmanMod Final 4

    Would anyone be interested in this?

    I optimized and tweak just about every system apk I could along with every freakin' Damm image,

    Updated Google apps and some stuff I don't remember... LOL

    Could be ready is a few day if there is any interest.

    Thank you for this, it's nice to have an update version of a stable rom. Do you have paypal or some way to donate? I'd link to send a few bucks, nothing much but a simple thank you for the work.

    No PayPal, but the Thank You works... :D

    This thing is fast... fastest Bionix build I've done.

    Update on OP

    I'm going to start work on Dark Slate V4 theme for this build in a day or so.

    The Old Dark Slate will work... you just lose ALL the new optimizations.
