Hi I think I have the problem solved. Sort of I may need some more help if you or anyone else knows how.

So I flashed back to the stock ED01 ROM from the rom list and still had the problem. So I figured I'm really screwed :) Then I found this thread:

Edit: I can't post a link to the thread but here is the info:

The poster had a similar issue (different rom I think) but a mixmatch between his baseband and his build number. He had the baseband up to date but the build number was behind. I think I have the opposite my baseband shows

S:i500.04.DI01

My build number shows

SCH-I500.ED01

The user above was able to flash a kernel since his build was bad. What should I do to update the baseband?
[Fascinate Android Development] gsilverstein30:
Got it working and I feel a bit silly :confused:

I must have downloaded a copy of the ROM for those already flashed with an up to date modem. I basically had the last vzw update from prior to rooting the phone (around sept 2010 lol) and a kernel/rom designed for ED01. I flashed DL09 in oden and then downloaded a CWM DL09 to ED01 modem delta. I was able to SMS to my email which wasn't working before I'll double check to a cell tomorrow.

Anyhow it was your wording of upgraded that gave me the hint I needed chrisngrod you didn't give me the whole answer you gave me enough to learn what I did wrong. Good teaching! I owe you an e-beer.

EC09?

Does/or has anyone tried to see if EC09 Modem works with Evil Fascination 3.6.0? I tried the EC09 Leak and the modem works great, just the glitches with downloads was killing me, so I switched to this.

Any help would be appreciated!
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
I use it with modem ec09.. Calls and sms works fine, data too
[Fascinate Android Development] deafptl4ever:
Same here. EC09 works beautifully on mine with Evil Fascinate. I used a nandroid backup I had from 2 weeks ago and great. The 3G and call signal bars are way high. Used be before data was sluggish but now spot on every time I demand data.:)
[Fascinate Android Development] wowser21:
Is anyone having issues with the screen not turning on? I had no problems with this ROM for a long time but in the last week or so, when i try to wake the screen by hitting the power button nothing happens. The icons on the bottom all light up and if i hit the volume buttons i get a beep. I have to do a battery pull for the phone to work again.

Anyway to fix this problem?

Thanks.
[Fascinate Android Development] mgrimmenator:
so I can just update modem from ec01 to the one ec09 witout doing anything to this rom?

well i just took a chance and updated the modem only from ec01 to ec09. so far so good. hope this was ok to do like this.

GPS does not seem to be working. I have ran GPS Aids and now rebooting.

After reboot all is perfect, gps lock in miliseconds, so far great.
[Fascinate Android Development] sgtflick:
Thanks for the heads up that it works! So far, EC09 has been the best modem for me out in the sticks!

[Fascinate Android Development] tulalhyt:
i have 2 question

1. which ec09 modem that is use ? is this ?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1132236

isn't this is a tw based modem ? while EF 3.6 AOSP based ?

....

2. anyone know how to change my UA string on stock browser ? I want to change to desktop browser, and I don't want other than stock browser.

thank you
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
Yup i use that link to get the ec09

He EF 3.6 is definitely touchwiz... Froyo and GB in fascinate here we dont have the developer that decelop the aosp. Except miui, i dont know whether it is based from CM or AOSP

For change the UA, i use dolphin browser.
[Fascinate Android Development] ekowanz:
What kernel did u use?

I get that problem when i use PB 50,and u use profile in set cpu to lower the clock when screen off.

Now i use OTB..
[Fascinate Android Development] Macguyver:
Yep, this has been happening to me for weeks randomly. I've tried wiping, re downloading and reinstalling clean and it eventually always comes back. I've removed any app I don't absolutely need to with no luck. Otherwise it runs great
[Fascinate Android Development] deafptl4ever:
I am using it now and its smooth as a babies butt. Comrom 2 was disasterous.
[Fascinate Android Development] nitsuj17:
everyone is entitled to their opinions, but labeling com rom 2 as "disasterous" is misleading without any clarification as to why

the VAST majority of folks using it are enjoying it...but there arent any issues that are frequently occuring for folks that would lead to such a statement :cool:
[Fascinate Android Development] deafptl4ever:
Your right and my bad. I tried to use the pbj otd 100 and went crazy. The 50 one worked beautifully. I am on ec09, that may have caused it. Sorry as I love both roms.
[Fascinate Android Development] :
I just flashed this this morning, along with the LG Alternate Launcher, and I only have one question: Is there any way to change the order of the categories? Whenever I add a new category in the app drawer it goes to the top, but I can't figure out how to move them further down the list.

Thanks in advance.
[Fascinate Android Development] Schmarvin:
So far, looking good. This was originally the rom I wanted to flash to my phone, but couldn't get it to work until now. Was running MIUI 1.6.17, but it had no support. Plus, more than half of the phone was useless. There was no mms, gps, flash, updater, or even noticeable events in the foreseeable future. So, I had to switch.

Updated/flashed to Evil Fascination at about 4am this morning. Its now 10am and it still seems to be running smoothly. I like the black-only style. It looks to be saving power. Haven't had any force close problems. And all currently stock apps work.

I do have one question though, how do you edit the LG Launcher? The left two icons are blank, there is nothing there, and I wanted to place the phone and contacts on the bar. Any ideas on how to go about doing that? Thanks.
[Fascinate Android Development] nitroglycerine33:
Drag the apps items there that you would like.
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
Hey nitro, any plan to work on a GB EF?
[Fascinate Android Development] GeoMandell:
Flashed this on a friend's Fascinate. Performed all steps in order as laid out. Performed a factory reset before flashing the ROM. Everything runs great except the app drawer will reload almost everytime he opens it, the phone is randomly rebooting, and he's experiencing constant freezing on a game that my Captivate runs just fine with no issues. The rebooting is obviously the biggest issue, but the only post I could find on it wasn't much help.

Any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] Macguyver:
I switched to OTB 1.5 yesterday, ran great until an hour ago when I could wake the phone but that's it, screen & buttons were non responsive.
[Fascinate Android Development] Schmarvin:
Thanks, noticed you had to be in the app drawer to drag to the launcher bar.

Anyone know how to send a group text? This is another rom which doesn't have the option to select multiple contacts.
[Fascinate Android Development] :
You wiped data, cache and dalvick cache before install right? I do not have any problems with EF 3.6. I am using the OTB 1.3 kernel though. PBJ and OTB 1.6 gave me problems.
[Fascinate Android Development] :
I have had similar problems with the newer version of OTB. Try OTB 1.3 kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] tulalhyt:
thankx for the answer :)

I just realise that the other rom also tw based ....
[Fascinate Android Development] Schenley:
I'm an admitted flash-aholic, and can't go two weeks without changing the ROM on my Incredible.

I finally talked my wife into getting an Android and chose the Fascinate for her back in February. I kept telling her we needed to root and try out some ROMs, but she kept saying she didn't want to mess with it. Finally, in May I talked her into trying some ROMs, I found this one, and installed it. It's been running strong and smooth since then! I came back here to see if anything was new... There doesn't seem enough in the new version for her use, so I'm keeping her on 3.5.1 for the time being. She wouldn't know the difference anyway. ;-)

The point is - thanks to the developer(s) for a solid ROM!
[Fascinate Android Development] mcadieux01:
Evil fascination 3.6. Every time I reboot I loose all my numbers.

Every time I turn the phone off I lose all my numbers and I have crazy force closes. Anyone know why?
[Fascinate Android Development] honest1212:
Strange issue, I suggest you to wipe the data and flash the ROM once again. Hope it helps.
[Fascinate Android Development] gthirty6ptime:
I seem to be sending @'s myself. My girls fascinate does it occasionally too. It didnt seem to do it until I recently downloaded the handcent update. So im putting the blame on that. Otherwise this is no big deal.
[Fascinate Android Development] Jinhoeric:
im still a nub.

So does this make my ec09 to a ed01 or do I need ed01?
[Fascinate Android Development] honest1212:
I am not able to download anything from market. Download starts but get paused automatically. On notification bar, the percentage never moves. Please help...
[Fascinate Android Development] :
Try a different kernel. Maybe OTB 1.3. See if that helps.
[Fascinate Android Development] honest1212:
Can you please provide the link? I am unable to find it. Thanks in advance.
[Fascinate Android Development] :
I don't think changing to this Rom will change your radio. You have to Odin to change that I believe.
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
As far as I know, none of the ROMs that you can flash in recovery contains radio/modem.

I would keep EC09 if I were you, it gives me better reception. Maybe it's my area, but keep an eye on it.

I'm on EC09 and CM 7 now.
[Fascinate Android Development] :
All the versions should be in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1011626 Read all the info on it first.

1.3 works the best for me. Just remember not to odin or flash anything nonvoodoo over voodoo. You are prolly on a voodoo kernel already anyways if you are using Evil Fascination.
[Fascinate Android Development] M00NEY:
if you are going to a non-voodoo and are on voodoo, IIRC you can just disable voodoo in CWM, reboot to do the conversion, then reboot to CWM And flash away safely.

This should be verified. I remember things, but not always exactly right...
[Fascinate Android Development] reisb:
So do you have to set each individual freq/voltage or just leave as is after install on OTB?

I have been having random phone shutoff about 1-2x per week on pbj50 that came with ef. Not terrible, but I'm paranoid of my alarm not waking me for work.
[Fascinate Android Development] :
I was getting random shutoffs too but it was due to corrupted data restored from titanium backup.

On otb 1.3 I dont even mess with voltage. I just overclock it to 1.1 with the voltage control app. I dont change anything else except for the overclock steps. You don't need to undervolt unless you are getting bad battery life.

I just switched back to pbj to test it again after I fixed my corrupted data issue to see if that was the real problem instead of the kernel.

[Fascinate Android Development] reisb:
How did you know data was corrupted? And how did you fix?

I have restored some apps from Titanium Backup, but i don't know if anything is corrup.

[Fascinate Android Development] Bardasian:
The only issue I'm getting from this ROM is that some people aren't able to get my texts. I've tried nearly every ROM available for the Fascinate and every time I go back to EF the same people are unable to receive my texts. I'm gonna try to flash a few different radios to see if that changes a thing. Any suggestions?
[Fascinate Android Development] avhokie:
Can someone give me some tips on how to improve battery life with this ROM?

Which modem and kernel give this ROM the most battery life? I really want to keep using this, but it is easily giving me the worst battery performance of any ROM I've used over the past 10 months. My battery right now is dying in half the time it did before I upgraded (I did ROM/modem/kernel all as part of the upgrade). Thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] Exego:
I had this problem for the past week with one person I text all the time. I would send/receive text/voice from everybody except this ONE person. I could only receive texts/calls from her. She would not receive text/vm notifications from me. Very strange as it came on all of a sudden with no changes to my phone whatsoever.

I did a factory reset on my phone (read: through the About menu, not a root wipe/reinstall) and it started working again.

Why???????

edit:

3.6 btw
[Fascinate Android Development] Bardasian:
I've moved on to CM7 now, but eventually it fixed itself. not really sure what I did. It might have just been a stock odin and reinstallation but I'm not 100%.
[Fascinate Android Development] M00NEY:
wondering the same... GB seems to have a lot of focus. Maybe that's all.

I am not ready to jump to GB or CM7 or MIUI due to remaining (though few) issues. I miss flashing something every few days, but I understand and appreciate where we all are due to the hard work of these devs.
[Fascinate Android Development] Bardasian:
I'm considering coming back to EF just because I think it looks so much better and most every issue has been worked out. Cm7 is great but just doesn't look as nice as EF.

Maybe we'll get an EF update.

Hi, anyone else notice that gmail push is a bit slower in this rom than others?

Also, my calendar notifications continuously crash my LauncherPro. Anyone else have this problem?
[Fascinate Android Development] M00NEY:
I have the force close on calendar reminders, but out seems to be just the pop up... The reminder id still there for me.

LP+ as well...

Swyped...
[Fascinate Android Development] HuskerDad3:
I had constant problems with LPP+ on this rom. I finally switched to Go Launcher EX, and I love it.
[Fascinate Android Development] notoriousB:
for you guys with calendar reminder crash issues try going into the calendar settings and select a new ringtone (anything other than the default). that fixed the issue for me.
[Fascinate Android Development] Changopelon:
I too am really happy with EF. The only reason I am even thinking of changing is to get Netfliix working, but that is not enough to justify ditching. BIG fan of the look and other EF apps. Can't say thanks enough!
[Fascinate Android Development] Changopelon:
I ran into this problem and the solution for me was editing the (+1) country code out of the phone numbers. No issues since and I am careful to exclude when adding new contacts.
[Fascinate Android Development] avhokie:
Any thoughts on my battery issue? I have about half the battery life that I used to have before I switched over to this ROM. This is also my first time with a voodoo kernel. Is crappy battery life just expected with voodoo? Or is it something else? I've tried a handful of radios and that does not seem to be the issue.
[Fascinate Android Development] notoriousB:
strange that you're having battery issues, I'm experiencing the exact opposite. I had decent battery life on Comm Rom 1.3, moved to Comm Rom 2.1 and battery life was much much worse, so much so that I couldn't make it through a work day. Coming back to EF has made my battery last all day and then some, even with conference calls and constant email push. Did you wipe before loading? Perhaps there's a rouge app running that's causing your battery drain?
[Fascinate Android Development] avhokie:
I wiped before updating. Today, my batter lasted less than 10 hours. I used it for less than 9 minutes of calls. I probably got a couple of emails. Sent 1 text message. Browsed for less than 2 minutes.

Looking at the battery usage, it is a ton for display and for time without coverage (though I live in a dense part of Northern VA...reception here should be great). It even claimed 16% battery for my less than 9 minutes of talk time!.
[Fascinate Android Development] HybridByNature:
I had the same issue. The problem when I had it was my texts were over 200 so, for some reason, it wasn't allowing anymore to go through.
[Fascinate Android Development] hesh.monster:
To anyone having battery issues, did you calibrate your battery after flashing or just load up and go?

You should always calibrate it and let it go through a few cycles from full to dead to get the best battery life possible. When I was running this Rom i would average about 6 hours with heavy use on the standard battery. I always carried a spare. After switching to the extended battery I would get around 10-12 hours.

[Fascinate Android Development] Hypnosis4U2NV:
Running EF 3.6.0, when I try installing apk's they stay on the installing screen forever. When I exit back to home, the phone just crawls. After rebooting the phone just stays in an infinite loading screen, so far 30 minutes before pulling the battery and restoring an image. Trying to install again from a fresh 3.6.0 restore and still the same issue.

Flashed from my Evil Fascination with VooDoo..
[Fascinate Android Development] geoffwee:
is there a simple way of calibrating other than working via adb?
[Fascinate Android Development] :
Download terminal emulator app by Jack Palevich. Type su then enter. Allow super user. Then type bstats then hit enter key again. It will reboot. You should then be calibrated.

When doing this make sure your battery

You may already have known that but I don't know if you know, that I don't know if you knew that ;)

Hey guys, just wondering if I could get some help with freezing issues. I recently did a complete data/factory and dalvik cache wipe and updated to 3.6.0. Also updated to the latest pbjt kernal 50. All this was to try and fix freezing issues. I have noticed most that the freezing occurs when I have had it charging for a while and then pull the plug out and try and turn the screen on. It will just be frozen and not wake up at all. Thats not the only time it freezes, but the rest of the freezes seem to be rather random. Im disapointed because this is my wifes phone and I dont want her to have to keep pulling the darn battery out. Is this a known issue? Anyone have any ideas of things I could try.

She is running setcpu.
[Fascinate Android Development] M00NEY:
Wondering why, but I opted to jump back to EF3.5.1 this weekend on a whim, and my phone is running MUCH faster, smoother, better.

Kernel only? Thoughts on this?

If it's the kernel, I'll jump back up, but if it's the rom, I'm staying, albeit confused as to why the newer version is slower - could just be my phone...?

Swyped...
[Fascinate Android Development] mgrimmenator:
i just got another fascinate for wife and installed this rom just like mine. she said today that the screen went to sleep and then would not turn back on. she had to remove battery and reboot.

I am going to wipe cache, and dalvik cache for her when she gets home. Any other advice to fix this? I have never had this issue.
[Fascinate Android Development] theseeker2654:
Yea I have basically the same issue with my Wife's fascinate and EF 3.6.0. Though we notice the issue most when its been charging and she takes the phone off her charging cord. But yea, it wont ever wake up. Screen stays black.
[Fascinate Android Development] mgrimmenator:
Wife says all she had run today was pandora and thats about it. wonder if that could be causing and issue. i will delete the cache and stuff on that app as well to see if it helps. Wonder if any similarities between your new phone and mine?
[Fascinate Android Development] vinal:
Not sure if this will be relevant to your case, but I had similar crashes with 3.6.0 and fixed it by uninstalling my most recently installed app(s). This also happens often on my rooted froyo nook color, usually due to system related widgets (battery/wifi/etc).

I'm also using pbj kernel 100, but I switched to that to get better battery life (worked for me).
[Fascinate Android Development] hesh.monster:
Try using "voltage control" from the market instead of setcpu. I'm not sure if pbj is one of them but some kernels don't play nice with it. Let me know if that does the trick.

Voltage control won't work with pbj. Sorry, I don't have a clue about a fix, but you can usually hold volume up and the power button to reset instead of pulling the battery. That's at least a little more convenient than taking the cover off every single time.

Wasn't aware voltage control didn't work on pbj, good to know.

Awesome trick with the reset, i didn't even know about that till a couple of weeks ago when someone posted it. Saves the brittle little back cover. <---- makes me wonder what happened to Samsung's build quality. Not that it's a piece of garbage or anything but I remember my i910 omnia being a tank. The bezel was actually metal, not a " metal-like" finish.

PBJ kernel doesn't support voltage control. All variants of the PBJ kernel have pre-set voltage settings. Nemesis' OTB kernel does support voltage control because it lets you set your own voltage and cpu clock speeds.

FYI, I went back to Blackhole 4.4 and EC01 modem. With EF, I was getting maybe 8 hours of battery life with little usage. With Blackhole, I am at 18 hours with heavier usage and I still have 17% battery left. Still don't understand why the big drop, but I guess I'll stick with this set up.
[Fascinate Android Development] theseeker2654:
Thanks for the replies guys. I actually solved the freezing issues by switching over to the newest ComRom and OTB 1.6 Kernal. Though I think after some more looking around I probably could have just switched kernals and tried uninstalling some of the apps and widgets and gotten the same results. But either way, my wife is happy so Im happy.

Oh yea, and thanks for the tip about volume up and power button. That is VERY handy.
