I've been using your ROM since you first released it and have to say it's been great! I'm currently running v3, but have tried the v3 Odin and v4 releases. I gotta say the Odin image and v4 seem a lot faster/smoother than v3 (which was already fast/smooth) but I had to go back to v3 due to an issue.

What I run into is under Settings --> Call Settings --> All Calls --> Call status tones. If I check either or both of the Call connect tone and Call end tone boxes, when I make a call, the dialer crashes and the call disconnects as soon as the other party picks up. It also crashes when someone calls me and the call ends.

It's not a big issue (I'm not sure how many people even use this feature), but for me it's kinda important.

Again, awesome job on the ROM! I'll keep running v3 for now.

Thanks... not sure why Final 3 works and V4 doesn't... both are using the same dialer and I didn't change anything that would cause that.

Works for me on v4.... maybe a bad flash.

I don't really use the call status tones options, but I was curious about this so I gave it a try. When placing a call, the dialer crashed when the other party picked up, BUT the call did not disconnect (a bit different from darkelf's problem). I got the force close notification window, but the conversation could continue. When receiving a call, the dialer crashed when the call ended. In both cases, there was no log of the call afterward in the dialer since it crashed.

Since I never use this option, I can't say if it was like this on the v3 version for me. Maybe others can give it a try, too.

Does anyone have issues with GPS locks after a deep-sleep (or after a day)?

You shouldn't have that issue with a Froyo rom. You could try a different kernel or reset some GPS settings. For the most part our GPS is like a housewife - it works when it pleases, and usually just eats up resources the rest of the time :D

Everyone has a "try this" - well here is mine. Check under "***INFO AND SUGGESTIONS***"

2 things come to mind to try:

System settings > Applications > Manage applications > All tab > Google Play Store > Clear data

then try it again

Also you may want to install Titanium backup when it opens hit you menu button and select Market Tools...

Try the Market Doctor.

Like Moped said, it depends. I have found mostly with this ROM it is all about location. Sometimes it takes up to 10 minutes to connect, but today for example outside on a clear day it took less than 5 seconds. Try it in different places.

fishman or moped, I don't know if this is related to the rom at all (don't think so) but maybe you can help, I have had a popup recently telling me there has been a change to my google account and to re-sign in, when I try it doesn't recognize the password (I triple checked the password and it is right) Any thoughts? I am a tiny bit worried its some sort of phishing scheme but I have run ad network detector and everything seems ok.

Nevermind...fixed the problem. Had to go into my account and change the password, then change it on my phone. Weird, but fixed!

    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.
