I used Odin 1.3, appears to have worked fine for just flashing the radio over the latest SC.
[Fascinate Android Development] BeeDubs:
I'm not getting the GPS performance (or battery life) you guys are. I'm on sc 2.9.2 and EC10 kernel and EC01 radio.

Should I try to Odin back to stock and try flashing again?

Sent with my thumbs.
[Fascinate Android Development] davey11:
Yea me too, 1.3 is getting the job done...you know how something new is supposed to be better mentality tho is why I asked. Ahh I just dl it and will try on me next odin session and see

Flashed new radio only over SC 2.9.2 with latest imnuts's 100mV voodoo kernel. Was using EA28 radio previously and unfortunetly my 3G is much worse right now. Was getting around 500dn/300up kbps at home with 1 bar of signal and now can't get 250/100. GPS is fine but it was fine before also. Maybe that has something to to with tcp tweaks in imnuts's kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] diggz976:
It's not the quickest task, especially if you have everything setup the way you like it finally, but going "Gizmo" sure cleaned up a lot of little annoyances and issues that I couldn't quite track down. I cut out some steps and Odin'd straight to the stock EB01.tar and got a whole new Fascinate out of it.

I can't say if it will make the difference with your GPS. Seems like there is just a lot of variance out there, maybe even hardware related. But as a process of elimination, it pretty much knocks down the possibility of software issues. Besides, it's always been a staple of OS maintenance... after you've tweaked and flashed and installed and uninstalled for a while, take off, "nuke it from orbit" and start fresh. Usually the best medicine. Have fun!
[Fascinate Android Development] diggz976:
Mine wasn't all sparkly at first either (radio-only over JTs EC10). Read somewhere in here to try re-flashing the kernel after doing radio-only Odin since some core files might be replaced (<-- loooose paraphrase, correct if I'm wrong). Anyway, it set my phone straight. Data speeds didn't change enough to claim

#winning

but signal/gps/battery sure did.
[Fascinate Android Development] dfa7:
BD - I'd like to know answer as well. No major complaints with battery before or even now after flashing ec01_radio.tar. Was hoping for faster and more consistent GPS locks...it's not happening.

I've asked for some of the more experience members to weigh in on difference between ec01_radio.tar and eb01modem.tar and haven't heard back. Screen shots these files a couple of pages back. The zips appear to be same except for release date.

Rooted - Voodoo-ed - EC10SuperClean_292x_DXC.tar.md5.tar + ec01_radio.tar = excellent performance with sub par temper-mental GPS. Not sure I want to re-flash EC10SuperClean.
[Fascinate Android Development] ezas:
I posted a couple of pages back.

My phone can only be described as flaky. Maybe I got a bad download. (I did radio and kernel only over SC 2.9.2 -no theme). Wifi issues, GPS issues, occasional random FC's and poor touchscreen response. Like back on Eclair.

I'm downloading the files for Gizmo's full 'fix' installation. Im going to do the full ROM/Kernel/Radio.

(and thanks Gizmo for putting that and the instructions and the MD5 sums in one place, much appreciated)

Since I'm getting all the files from Gizmo's post I will check all the checksums.

It doesn't say to, but I'm disabling lagfix just to be on safe side.

Since it was a bit confusing to me. If you are checking files with Hashtab, right click on the file and choose properties and there will be a tab 'file hashes'.

If I get really good results I'll post up. I've never used a pit file so if nothing else I can add that to things I've done to my phone.

Update: Said I would follow up if results were good. Everything is running smooth and for the most part snappy and soft keys are not laggy anymore. No FC's. GPS is good, WiFi is good (signal strength about the same), and 3G is good (but haven't used it much yet).

Next day update. Overall operation of the phone is fine. No FCs

GPS - still hit or miss. Seems to work best right after a reboot but have not tested enough to be sure

WiFi is working well

3G no signal difference detected but working better than it was on SC 2.9.2 where I was getting a lot of signal drops and drops to 1x.

But to be fair my last 2.9.2 was getting to be a frankenbuild with lots of ROM/Theme/kernel flashes

In short I don't regret flashing the EC01 ROM/Radio/Kernel and plan to stay with it for the time being.

I haven't checked the version but I think this is the original 'system' swype because all of sudden I'm getting a lot more errors. I plan to install the swype Beta later and will compare versions.
[Fascinate Android Development] ezas:
I know this thread is geared towards people who know what they are doing. But shouldn't step 12 in Gizmo's post be "if you installed a voodoo kernel instead of voodoo ROM?

There is just the one EC01 ROM listed.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12784612&postcount=9

I know there has been some discussion of this (I believe in this thread) about pulling the battery to Odin. The one and only time I had a problem with download mode is the one time I didn't pull the battery. FWTW

Dang, lost a couple of updates, must not have saved them.

Update: Install went smooth as much as I can tell. My baseband and build numbers are correct. The OP says that it would be the Xoom boot Ani but I still have the Honeycomb boot Ani, the same as I had in SC 2.9. Also should the desktop fundamentally be Touchwiz? Am I seeing what I should be seeing?
[Fascinate Android Development] BeeDubs:
I'm still not sure the difference in performance (if only alleged) between EC01 ROM and Super Clean if radio is EC01 and kernel is EC10 in both cases.

What I mean is, why even flash the newer ROM? Is there something in it that could potentially play nicer with the EC01 radio? Is it to prepare for an EC01 kernel that's upcoming?

Sorry in advance for the stupid questions.

using 7zip, i did a checksum on each file..

EC01 radio - 79e5fd2294dfc25bddd47cb8b946febff299a66cca95f2d9f34c7eb155b57bf7

I may have missed a letter or number in there, but you can see they are more than 1 digit off.
[Fascinate Android Development] dfa7:
Thank you mastamoon. My bad...I should have thought of that myself. Definitely not noticing anything different with this radio with regard to signal, GPS or battery performance, so it may be ROM dependent if others are feeling the joy.
[Fascinate Android Development] xceebeex:
So, has anyone heard anything new yet about the community ROM? I would like to wait for that if it isn't too far away.
[Fascinate Android Development] jjcas15:
Flashed the ec01 radio and was amazed at how accurate and fast my gps found me!
[Fascinate Android Development] bobloblaw1:
"There are no shortcuts to any place worth going."

"Rome was not built in a day."

I think the prevailing conclusion here would be that its awfully hard for the devs to put an ETA on something they do for free and in their spare time. It really wouldn't be fair to put the additional pressure of a deadline on them. Then if they miss the deadline, they get *****ed at. And if they release something to meet the deadline and its buggy, they get *****ed at.

[Fascinate Android Development] SeatownGST:
I just wonder if we'll get a rollup file that contains the latest stuff. Aryn's SC stuff got so crazy and parted out that people were getting confused. It seems that time is arriving again on other projects. Rom/Radio/Kernels all over the place again. It's good to see dev picking up again nevertheless!
[Fascinate Android Development] MattRussNC:
True, however a vague ballpark hint might just might let some of us stop checking every hour to see if there is any news on it :rolleyes:
[Fascinate Android Development] xceebeex:
I completely understand. I just saw in his first post he talked about an edify version being available "tomorrow." So I assumed that meant the community ROM, our at least that the ROM would be available around the same time.
[Fascinate Android Development] Mubassmastajoe:
Haha! I love it!
[Fascinate Android Development] superchunkwii:
So, I have SC2.9.2

GPS never works

Battery life has always been perfectly fine

No other major issues or super benefits

I flashed just this modem

.... and no changes.

What do you all have that enabled GPS to fly off the charts? I think I have EB01 kernal.... who can I verify? Maybe I need a newer kernal....
[Fascinate Android Development] SeatownGST:
we just need a new compilation file. I'm sure there's a lot of us with all sorts of mismatched code.
[Fascinate Android Development] BrwnSuperman:
I wiped everything, Odined back to EB01, reflashed the modem, flashed to superclean. Restored only Apps, no data (with all the different Roms and kernels I kept flashing I needed to start fresh) Using the new EC01 radio, running SC 2.9.2, everything is running amazing.
[Fascinate Android Development] saps:
EC01 radio with SC 2.9.2

I was averaging 800 and 400 up on EB01 from home, notoriously lack of super top speeds. Im at home now and just got the figures. I was so surprised by the 1st test with FCC I switched to SpeedTest thinking maybe it was a fluke. It was not.
[Fascinate Android Development] BeeDubs:
So you're running SC 2.9.2 and NOT the EC01 ROM in the OP?

It sounds like I'll have to do what you did.
[Fascinate Android Development] s44:
OK, this I've got to try... Those are HSPA speeds. ;)

Did you have to reflash kernel?
[Fascinate Android Development] saps:
Actually I merely odin'd the ec01 radio over my existing SC 2.9.2 and nemesis uber kernel. So Im not on the EC01 rom or any of that jazz. Honestly I don't think you could talk me out of my current step up right now. No need to switch. Paired with that lovely kernel OC'd to 1.3 for me and with a nice -100mv uv on the bottom steps Im lovin it [sorry mcdonalds :p]
[Fascinate Android Development] BrwnSuperman:
Yeah, I decided to listen to Adrynalyne and believe that EC01 Roms are newer than this EC10 Rom. Haven't had any regrets. Also using nemesis' OTB kernel slightly uv at 1.2ghz. Everything is so smooth and works like it should.
[Fascinate Android Development] s44:
Yeah, but some folks were reporting odd things after just Odining the modem itself. Guess I'll have to try and find out.
[Fascinate Android Development] chrisexv6:
Im not seeing the same result. GPS is still slow to lock, I can only preface that with the fact that Im in an office building so maybe that affects it. I will try outdoors or in my house later.
[Fascinate Android Development] bwheelies:
Ec01 rom, radio, jt's latest voodoo with all three location services checked = virtually insta-lock!

Actually I just ran outside for a second and GPS locked really quickly. I think its just inside our building that might be a problem.

I'm waiting for a cleaner version of this before I go through all that. I'm sure he's building a "superclean" version of this rom.

[Fascinate Android Development] mrjake1970:
I flashed just the radio as well. Ice never been able to lock gps at less than 3000 meters..and to get that it would take 4 or 5 minutes.

I got to 20 meters and lock in about 10 seconds.

My signal bars did not improve thou as some have reported.

My battery life literally doubled as well with no change in my normal usage. I used to get home from work with about 15% left. Ive been home for over an hour and I'm sitting at 44% as i type this. My phone likes the combo I'm running.

[Fascinate Android Development] famousface:
I was going to wait for the team ROM but... I couldn't do it! I can say that after following all the steps (I was tempted to just odin the radio) all works great. On the other hand, I miss the superclean. Thanks adrynalyne and crew. You guys are awesome.
[Fascinate Android Development] jazzyjames:
Sweet that worked great, I also noticed if you long press on a location nearby it can trigger it too.
[Fascinate Android Development] jazzyjames:

[Fascinate Android Development] DeezNotes:
To anyone running the full ROM, have you noticed any intermittent force closes? There is no message displayed on the phone, just one quick vibration followed by a double vibration 2 seconds later. I get this at random times with random apps.
[Fascinate Android Development] neozen21:
I just installed the radio + ROM via GizmoRoid method, with JT's Voodoo EC10 kernel. So far so good, haven't noticed any FCs yet..

Now all I need is the accurate battery mod, and I'm set!
[Fascinate Android Development] Legato525:
I am going top start over again, but on this go, my 3g keeps disappearing (yes I *228), battery life is about 20 percent per half hour of use. gps does lock a lot better. Though my screen keeps shutting off. Those are my results so far.
[Fascinate Android Development] syborg:
Sunday night I Heimdalled the EC01 modem onto my phone that's configured with SC 2.9.2 and JTs 4/08 kernel. On Monday the phone did not perform too well - battery life and signal strengths were bad. This morning i re-flashed JTs 4/08 kernel and the phone is much improved. Signal strength is good and and battery life is awesome.

Thanks for all you do Adry and JT!

[Fascinate Android Development] dfa7:
Just a quick follow up on results w/odin'd EC01 radio over SC 2.9.2:

After an initial successful odin'd radio flashing: ZERO change in 3g speeds, signal, battery or GPS performance. After reading a couple of posts (thx guys, u know who u are) about trying radio reflash, I must say results are dramatically different! 3g speed tests have doubled, signal stable and GPS lock in few seconds!!! As for battery; this will have to wait until tomorrow for full blown hardcore testing and results.

For all who are not finding any difference in performance after initial flash...try it...you may be rewarded.

Thx again to the few members here that persevered and took a shot and tried 2nd time radio flash!
[Fascinate Android Development] lucky13:
By reflash, you mean through odin, correct?
[Fascinate Android Development] dfa7:
Yes, that would be correct.

I never locked inside from day one for 5 months until now.

I'll have to try that reflashing trick later.
[Fascinate Android Development] shorttripp86:
I'm not even sure if this new ec01 rom/radio could even be a factor, but ever since flashing this, I've noticed that my battery gets substantially hotter when it's charging. My battery could be going to crap -- hope not after only 6 1/2 months!

Anyone else noticed this happening?
[Fascinate Android Development] SnrSuave:
Anyone lose their long press voice search with this rom? Just trying to make sure I didn't mess something up.
[Fascinate Android Development] ezas:
It took me two flashes of the radio to see improvement in the GPS. And it wasn't just a little better. Locks were fast.
[Fascinate Android Development] ezas:
I did when I had only flashed the radio and kernel. Since doing the whole package with Gizmo's instructions it's been working well in all aspects.
[Fascinate Android Development] iofthestorm:
I just flashed the radio only, seems to be working OK right now. Phone seems to work. Running MIUI so I don't want the ROM anyway (although I might have to go back to stock at some point for the many times I keep wishing I had a video recorder for projects).
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
You're welcome. Bad thing is, we will get to experience this for a while, then we will be flashing again once this build gets fully debloated by Adrynalyne. But hopefully this is a more stable build than EB01.
[Fascinate Android Development] MattRussNC:
Thank you for the hard work, without you devs we would have pretty binging paper weights.

Yes do be sure to verify your download specially if you run into problems. Spent half a day trying to get past a failing odin flash.
[Fascinate Android Development] GalaxySAndroid:
Do we need to disable voodoo before we do step one?
[Fascinate Android Development] nitsuj17:
For those curious about gps performance with the new radio...
[Fascinate Android Development] DeezNotes:
Ahh. I initially didn't see the EC10 kernel in the superclean thread, because the hyperlink isn't enabled and it's not listed with the other kernels in the thread (it's currently listed under changelog if you're looking for it).

Unfortunately, it's still not working for me. I get stuck in a boot loop using that EC10 kernel or jt's EC10. Voodoo enabled or disabled. Yes, I followed the steps in the OP - twice. Maybe I'm missing something else?

Here's a logcat of when it crashes (during boot): http://pastebin.com/ka7PjKMQ

UPDATE: I was able to get things working using GizmoDroid's instructions. I think my issue was I wasn't supposed to wipe. I noticed this was mentioned in the OP, but in the kernel section.
[Fascinate Android Development] mcramer19:
Good odds this is a dumb question but asking never hurt Anybody. Could I use this modem with a different Tom and kernel. Say superclean or miui?
[Fascinate Android Development] DeezNotes:
Not a dumb question... but a question that was already answered. :D Yes, you can.

Just Tried to odin the modem only. Odin saw my phone properly, I used the PDA button, the green status bar completed, but the Message section in the lower left is hung on "modem.bin". Any ideas? I'm hesitant to disconnect the phone, tempted to wait a while, but it's been about 5 minutes. Normally odin works just fine for me but I'm not getting the success message this time. Any ideas?

Edit: Nevermind, just disconnected phone, attempted again, worked fine this time. Many thanks adrynalyne

There are a lot of questions regarding expectations of the functionality of these updates on individual devices. Here's the thing: with every release, you can read thru the threads and see hundreds of unique results, some good, some not so much. We have all, for the most part, taken different paths to reach the current states of our devices, most of us flashing or pushing a diverse range of code from a variety of jumbled sources to our phones. Even without the recent cwm snafu adding to the mess, the chance of some conflict effecting our individual result is likely.

There is no way for any one user to accurately predict how another user's phone will react. The best you can do is to read thru for the high profile issues, be prepared to deal, in advance, with the contingencies and try it out on your device (and avoid doing anything questionable at a time when you need your phone to function in the immediate future).

I flashed the EC01 radio over a recently rebuilt (gizmo style) setup with SC 2.9.2, JTs 4/8 voodoo and NitroDark4. A couple small issues were fixed with a kernel re-flash. Amazing results! Some flashed the modem twice to make theirs work. Some had the best luck using the Adryn's recommended rom + kernel + radio. Try a method and if none of these work, consider reading Gizmo's "Erasing the CWM Confusion" and starting fresh while you're at it. The results that I've had with just this modem on a fresh rebuild have made my phone better than I could have imagined. Just don't expect that my advice our anyone else's is going to produce the exact same results.

The point of this word-vomit fest? Just try it. These phones are virtually un-brickable and between the forum community, CWM fixes making nandroids reliable again and TiBu, you don't have much to lose.
