i'm not sure if what you are reporting is that you cannot send picture messages, but i cannot send any picture text messages with this ROM. has happened with 1.0, 1.2, as well as 1.3. i can receive picture messages, and can send/receive regular messages, however can't send texts that have pics on them. no browser running for me, and rebooting and killing all the apps i've got running didn't change anything.

i had this happen before on some pre-froyo roms/kernels i ran but hasn't happened in a while. iirc, applying an updated kernel fixed it previously (don't hate if i'm wrong).

i also get the hard crashes with the camera that some others have reported where i have to pull the battery b/c when toggling between the gallery and my camera. not sure if they're related.

aside from these 2 nag issues, this is probably the most solid rom i've ever run. love the work guys.

I know there probably a answer in one of these 5 hundred pages ....but I flashed 1.3 and gets stuck on samsung screen how in the heck do u get it to work I've tried everything.....
[Fascinate Android Development] DirgeExtinction:
Flash the 1.3 OTB kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] cesium:
Try redownloading and reflashing in case the download was corrupt. Also make sure you wiped data, cache, and dalvik cache before flashing.

Hey guys I am on com ron 1.0 because every time I try and flash it from here it sticks at the samsung boot logo I came from kaosascinate v7 then went to evil fascination now trying to get to 1.3 any ideas
[Fascinate Android Development] nitsuj17:
your phone probably doesnt like the included otb 1.4 kernel...on the rom zip...open it with 7zip and replace the zimage in kernel_update with the one from com rom 1.2 and then try and flash the rom in recovery....probably will fix you up
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
Yea, flash com rom 1.3, then (before re-booting) flash the otb 1.3 kernal. Then re-boot.

On v1.3 new error popped up. My phone will not reach 100% charge when plugged into any PC USB port and booted up. Tried different cables (official Samsung at that)

Turn your phone off. Fully charge your phone, boot into recovery with the 3 finger salute then wipe battery stats and reboot.

+1 on the absent USB debugging. Despite having it selected, connecting to PC doesn't display that it's active. Only the option to connect USB storage.
[Fascinate Android Development] tjmckay933:
Yes, 3 times now.

The first time, I put the phone in the car dock like a hundred times before. Next time I looked at the phone, I see the large green battery icon. Boot. Shrug.

The second time, I connected a car charger only, no dock. Pick the phone up to check time, unresponsive. Hold power button... "Samsung". Boots, I get a little annoyed.

Third time followed <disconnecting> from the USB cable - which was only charging at that point because I hadn't activated USB storage. Disconnected, slipped into pocket, next time I look at the phone, dark. Grrr.

So, aside from *****ing, I'd like to contribute a logcat - but a question: since it's a power-off issue, are logs any use? In other words, is logging cleared with a power off or is it persistent so a log captured after the device is back among the living is helpful?

Putting up with an oddity here or there is no big deal. Having the phone MIA randomly is a bit more serious - but I'd hate to abandon CommRom. Therefore, any help is appreciated - thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] AuroEdge:
Did not work.
[Fascinate Android Development] beenz:
This happened to me this morning. The phone was on the charger all night with no problems (i woke up a few times and checked the time). I noticed it around 6:30 or so. I had Gentle Alarm night display on at the time, if that matters.

Edit: have not touched any voltage settings, and am on ED01 radio
[Fascinate Android Development] skynet11:
Has anyone checked to see if the issue is just with the notification bar (which would indicate that debugging is still active) or if USB debugging actually is disabled? I am not at my PC right now so I cannot say myself.

Anyone else having a problem with your launcher being killed? I have tried go launcher, lpp, and the stock aosp launcher.

I just came over from a dl05 rom to 1.3 and everything seems great except when i try to launch the phone app it force closes without ever displaying anything, also on boot i get an acore force close. I can call anyone in my phone book fine but i cant launch the dialer. I did a wipe of everything before flashing, tried fix permissions, and tried the rotating dialer with no luck. I still have the dl05 radio and im sure somone will think they are being helpful and say you have to be using ed01 but im trying to see if i can do without that. Heres a logcat of trying to launch it. Any ideas?

http://pastebin.com/YGuSsNmw
[Fascinate Android Development] nitsuj17:
you would be best served moving up to a newer radio...but besides that...i would recommend booting back into cwr, rewiping and reflashing the rom

those who had phone force closes or acore fc's generally were resolved by rewiping and reflashing the rom

I just realized in v1.3 my gps does not work at all.

It will view only 1 sat. and never lock. This is strange, because

it has worked perfectly with the previous versions.

I have tried activating it from the settings menu, checking google location, and messing around with the gps.conf file, etc, etc.

So im stuck with that...rare problem on 1.3.

Ahhh nvm, found a post that showed how to change some settings in Gps Aids, works well now.

I realized why my homescreen keeps getting killed and needing to reload. When I am in a program and I switch to landscape mode, the screen switches and needs to reload all my widgets and shortcuts. When I turn auto rotate off I don't have the problem but I need to be able to switch because I watch a lot of videos in my phone. Anyway to allow auto rotate but not allow the launcher to rotate. I tried disabling the launcher2 setting

I agree...I kept my phone outside for 30 mins and... No lock...! I love this ROM.. But GPS, Dialer and Reboot are not working properly...

My dialer does not show the FB photo of the contact to whom I am dialing although the contact photo is shown in the Contacts app... I dont know how to take logs, but if anyone could point me in the right direction I would like to take the logs...

When I Reboot from the Power Menu, my phone goes to a black screen of death..! Dont know why that happens...

Otherwise, the ROM is superb for my daily use..!

ok. has anyone noticed data/signal issues on the com rom? hell...2.2 in general.

Wondered if it was ed01 in general. I contacted VZW cust care. They have sent me 3 new fascinates...thx Ti Bu for saving me lol the hassle of replacing everything.. i have even tried going to stock OTA froyo. and the signal was still ****ty...RAWR!!!!

so im at a crossroad here. i refuse to go back to 2.1 lol but VZW wants to trade me out for a droid. and not the charge...those bastards lol. like the droid x.

ComRom v1.3

OTB-Reloaded 1.3 Kernel (problem happens with v1.4 also)

Yes I complete wiped data, cache, dalvik before installing this rom

Flashed over a freshly wiped / ODIN'd DL09 Stock and over a freshly wiped / ODIN'd ED01 Stock.

(I have wiped multiple times and I have reinstalled this rom multiple times with wipes and without wipes and with DL09 and with ED01).

I use the following patches:

swype fix 1.3 & mms message patch

I have had my ESN swapped and swapped back.

I can send text messages with stock roms and had no texting problems (that I know of) with v1.2 comrom.

I cannot send text messages with v1.3, regardless of kernel and regardless of what stock rom I odin'd before putting v1.3 on. Originally, I had gone from v1.2 straight to v1.3 but have gone back to stock since then and still no texting.

I was able to send a MMS yesterday, but it said it failed to send even though it did send.

Today, when I tried to send text messages to myself, 3G would drop to 1x, then a moment later the radio would be "x"-ed out until I did an Airplane mode recycle. 3g would come back. 3G works pretty normally otherwise. I have had it drop the radio multiple times today when trying to send a text message.

Here is a log cat:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12937154/Fascinate_LogCat_TextMsg_Fail.txt

I started logcat with Terminal Emulator, switched to text messaging, tried to send several messages to myself. When the radio dropped to 1x and a moment later dropped completely off I recycled airplane mode on and off and I think I tried to resend some text messages again before ending the logcat.

Also during that logcat I sent a text message from my wife's phone to mine. Of course that message didn't come through. I have not received any text messages all week.

EDIT: I just went back to DL09 Odin, then used the OTA to update to ED03. I still can't send text messages, so perhaps this is something deeper in my phone. I can confirm though, that I had been able to send text messages with V1.2 and I was able to send text messages the first time I restored back to DL09 after having problems with V1.3.

I'll take my phone to the store with the stock ED03 loaded and see if they can try anything.

[Fascinate Android Development] AlexDeGruven:
kswapd is how the kernel manages virtual memory, or paging space as it's called in some UNIX variants. If you're doing a lot of stuff launching and closing apps, etc, it's going to be more active, because memory is a limited resource. Swap/page space makes it so the system can do more at once with limited resources.

ED03 plays fine with ComRom. I've been running it since 1.3 dropped without issue.
