Vibrant Dev Team

I know this device hasn't been officially released yet, but we do have the source code from Samsung and Froyo source code from Google. I was thinking about starting up a dev team to start cooking up ROMS for the Vibrant if you are interested send me a pm on here, and we can get things started. I'll admit I am a little rusty on my Java, but it shouldn't take me no time to learn it again.

May be jumping the shark a little. Has anyone found a consistant way to gain root?

Not yet, but on the 15th, I'll be working on it when I get the phone

Alright cool, I am reviewing my Java, and I am coming from the Droid to this phone so this should be exciting to hopefully start up a small community of people to help me with cooking up ROMs for this phone

Is knowing Java the only requriement for being able to create your own custom roms? I'm learning it now in hopes to make my own apps, but I thought you needed to know C and be well-versed in linux stuff like kernel programming to be able to make your own custom roms.

According to what I can find on source.android.com the only examples of code that they have on there are Java base

I am game. I dont have a boat load of time, but I am going to try to get CM6 built for this phone. I want Froyo ASAP. Also I would like to get CM6 on there with some of the other goodies that the phone has such as extra video codec playback. Anyway here is a link on how to build CM that can help jump start everyone.

Edit: Java and depending on what you are doing C. The kernels do require heavy hacking if you want to really mess with it, but in most cases all you have to do is build it and link in the proper drivers.

Note: I have never done any of this it is just what I have gathered over the time of owning my G1 since launch day.
