OK, guys I have a quick question. Sorry if this has been addressed. I have started attemped to install the 7/4 rom going from UKB 2.1. It got stuck on the Galaxy S / Cyanogem(mod) screen for a long time >30 min. I heimdalled back to DLO9 and started from scratch, still getting the same issue.

Does anyone have any suggestions,

Thanks,

Eric
[Fascinate General] kuronosan:
If you're flashing the 7/04 ROM, you need to update the CWM recovery using JT's zips before you actually flash anything else.
[Fascinate General] ej1911:
I did that step...wiped everything, everything looked like it flashed OK. It got to the point where it was checking the file system and rebooted like I expected it to. It booted to the Galaxy S/Cyan screen and froze there. Soft key lights were responsive, but I gave it quite some time and it never got off of that screen.

So far, this rom is great! I flashed the 0704 build and its amazing (i could care less about MMS for now). Thanks to JT for all his hard work. :D

I did notice one thing though. The orientation sensor seems to be very laggy, making games that use it very unplayable. I can live with it, Just thought I should bring that up. Everything else is great.
[Fascinate General] gaw316:
Quick question y'all... I notice there's some talk about a fixed CWR to flash this rom?

Is that just to get the three finger salute to work?

I used ext4 formatter, and then flashed the rom coming from com rom 2.1 via the old clockwork recovery... was that the wrong way?

edit: Everything seems to be working fine btw... it all booted up and runs... was just curious.
[Fascinate General] ermiar:
Hey guys. Jt looks like he's doing some amazing work and it's really making me want to try it out. I'm currently running CommRom 2.1 and was wondering what differences I would see. I know that MMS doesn't work and I'm fine with that, but what are the strengths of each rom?
[Fascinate General] garywojdan81:
That's the same method I've used twice, but you've got to have the right cwm to start with. I've been using navenedrob's cwm3.0.2.8 & his latest ext4 utility & have gone back & forth between TW & MTD roms with no issues.
[Fascinate General] mackeydesigns:
What's the general consensus on this CM7 build vs Comm Rom 2.1? Better? Faster? More stable?
[Fascinate General] akaine2001:
Put it like this... My nexus one was snappier with the CM6, than com rom 2.1 at 1200mhz.... And that was last july....so you figure it out
[Fascinate General] Ianxcom:
Much faster. Much much faster.
[Fascinate General] mackeydesigns:
well if you put it like that, LOL.
[Fascinate General] Headcase8911:
Is there a way to overclock the latest build?

Also, does anyone else's soft keys stay illuminated constantly?
[Fascinate General] kwinders:
I flashed it fine from my new pny 32gb class 10 for tablets, no troubles.
[Fascinate General] AlexDeGruven:
Clear any SMS or email notifications. If you have unread in either, they'll be lit. JT was talking about turning off or making BLN configurable in the next release.
[Fascinate General] BTownTKD:
Github MMS Activity

Lots of MMS-related activity on JT's Github...

EDIT:

Also, looks like some changes to gpio, to increase battery life. And some other possible tiny bugfixes/cleanup. But really, I know what you guys are more interested in...
[Fascinate General] MrBigFeathers:
Does the screen come on while on a call when you pull it away from your face now? Or is that still an issue?
[Fascinate General] Headcase8911:
Still seems to be an intermittent issue.
[Fascinate General] gdnl:
My bln got stuck overnight also. Had to reboot to clear it.
[Fascinate General] MrBigFeathers:
Bummer, thanks.
[Fascinate General] tmlhodge:
How so? I'm not missing any calls.. And I have a wife...... So my phone is constantly exploding. In deep sleep it always wakes for me now.
[Fascinate General] MrBigFeathers:
I meant when you are already on a call and you pull the phone away from your face to see the dial pad. Currently my phone's screen turns off when i put it to my ear and comes back on when I pull it away from my head.
[Fascinate General] beenz:
Doesn't pressing the power button while on a call turn the screen on? Worked for me, anyways.
[Fascinate General] Headcase8911:
True, but that's not considered fully functional if you have to press the power button. It's occasional for me.
[Fascinate General] pinecone:
Hey everyone. Great ROM although I'm experiencing a weird issue. My GPS lock is real slow. When I run GPS Test, it views about 10 or so satellites but won't show any of them "In Use" for about a minute or so. I was wondering if there was anything I can do to speed the GPS lock up. Thanks!

Edit: Turned out to be a bad CM7 flash. Re-downloaded ROM and reinstalled. GPS Status fix did the trick.
[Fascinate General] hesh.monster:
First time I've had this and I haven't found it in any posts so here goes.

I receive a call, the phone is set on silent( vibrate) whatever you want to call it. Anyway, when the call comes in it rings through the earpiece and continues to ring throughout the call making it difficult to hear who is in the other end.

Has anyone else has this problem and if so, found any way to fix it( besides hanging up and calling them back)

I have yet to reliably recreate this so I do not have any usable logs to work with..... annoying...

Download GPS Aids and run that it should help.
[Fascinate General] ezas:
I've got the best GPS lock EVER on this phone with the 07/04 build and OTB kernel. I mean EVER and did nothing to get it. GPS has been a bit spotty on this phone, till now.

This is my first experience with CM7. I flashed over CommROM 2.1 using the 'fixed' CWM and just followed the instructions. Flashed the OTB kernel, put in a bit OV/UV and been smooth sailing for two days now. Keeping it as daily driver for the time being.
[Fascinate General] Headcase8911:
Phantom ring, it's famous!
[Fascinate General] goo_sysu:
I cant control the in-call volume via volume button in the latest cm7 rom but it works fine in controlling ringtone/meida/alarm

Ayone has this problem?:mad:
[Fascinate General] hesh.monster:
I want sure if that was it.....i guess I imagined it would be quieter lol.

Although I thought with the phantom ring you were unable to answer the call?

[Fascinate General] SpringRush:
Voice mail notification tone over and over

When I get a voice mail, the notification tone plays over and over and over without ever stopping. Only way to stop it is to dial a number. Is this the infamous phantom ring? I always assumed that the phantom ring was the background ringing that sometimes happens when I answer an incoming call. Annoying, but can be lived with.
[Fascinate General] Headcase8911:
That's doesn't necessarily sound like the classic phantom ring. I would reinstall gapps and or rom if necessary to get to the bottom of that.
[Fascinate General] gaw316:
eagerly flashed new test build 8 lol...

people can't hear me on the other end of a phone call now though. I know this was a problem with other test builds. flashed back to 7. works again.

Just throwing that out there just in case anyone else seems to have that problem.
[Fascinate General] beenz:
Flash nemesis's .13 kernel. Others have had success with getting audio back
[Fascinate General] PeterGunz:
JT just tweeted that the merge with his CM7 and the mainline is in progress now. This may be a dumb question since I have been hearing about this for quite some time and reading about it in regards to other phones, but what does this mean for the rom? More updates? More people working on it? Not sure I get what happens when a rom gets merged.
[Fascinate General] akaine2001:
Well, I think well get nightly rom builds then. And that means....

We get nightly crackflashing habit then. All the new features first. I used cm6 nightlies for like 6 months on my nexus one, them ****s is addicting... Every day you checking for what's new, what's fixed, what's added onto, its great.
[Fascinate General] PeterGunz:
So that means other devs will be working on the MMS problem? (not that I use it) It will be more functional sooner?

Or are these two separate things? I'm assuming they are.
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
I would think that it would just mean more features and better optimized code, I'm not sure about the MMS though.
[Fascinate General] kuronosan:
Yes, more or less.
[Fascinate General] PeterGunz:
Is the keyboard included in CM7 modded at all? Or is it stock GB? I feel like it is different somehow, but that could just be in my head.
[Fascinate General] mellen_hed:
is there a compatible version of launcher2 for CM7? or a way to lock the icons in the dock with ADW Launcher?
[Fascinate General] church101:
Posted in the theme thread already about a sgs2 clock widget but no answer yet so I was wandering if anyone has a compatiable version for cm7?
[Fascinate General] ej1911:
Hey guys, I'm still having a hard time getting CM7 up and running.

I've started from scratch several times. Reverting back to stock->flash CMR from JT's CW7 rom thread -> wipe cache/data/dalvik -> install cm7 build 7 (7/04). It mounds sd ok, checks the staus of the file system, everything looks good, but it gets stuck on the Galaxy S/cm7 screen for a long time (over 30 minutes).

I've odin'ed and heimdalled back to the original file system thinking that there might be something wrong with my partitions, but nothing is seeming to work very well.

I've tried starting from stock and UKB 2.1. I read all of this thread and the CM7 thread in the developer's section and tried almost every variation of what everyone is getting to work.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'll love you forever,

Thanks,

Eric
[Fascinate General] church101:
Have you tryed flashing one of the recent mimu roms first?
[Fascinate General] ej1911:
No, but at this point I will try anything. I did finally get it to flash build 8, but I got greedy and tried to flash build 9 and it broke everything again. :)
[Fascinate General] garywojdan81:
Just a thought: have you tried reformatting your SD card? Back it up, format it & redownload the rom. Also, how are d/ling? 3g or wifi? Don't know that it makes a difference but I sometimes wonder if some of the more obscure issues aren't a matter of marginal data integrity with the files.
[Fascinate General] fletcheroony:
I hear alot about cm7 themes but have yet to find a good source of them and the built in apps only has three. Anyone know where to get them?

[Fascinate General] ej1911:
I think I figured out what my issue was. I previously had a bad flash to cm7 and ran into a lot of boot loops. I'm a linux user, so I used heimdall to go back and start over. I finally got somewhat booted up, but everything was acting strange and realized that my personal background was up from when I had set it from the first go around.

I had gone back to stock several times with heimdall using the atlas pit, but evidently it did not completely repartition my device correctly and data was still hanging out there. I booted into my Windows partition for the first time in ages and used Odin. After Odin, everything worked like a charm.

I've never had issues with heimdall before, but evidently when it comes to repartitioning, Odin is the way to go.
[Fascinate General] brandonb81:
I just installed this and it seems to be pretty awesome, but I made a call this morning and the volume was incredibly low. I could barely hear the person I was talking to. I did turn the in call volume all the way up with the volume rocker, but it was still almost too low to hear. I notice the changelog says it "fixed in call audio"... but is there anything else that can be done to increase the volume?

Thanks
[Fascinate General] beenz:
Quick question. When the radio dies, does the wifi/3g and signal bars just go white, or is it more obvious?
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
I got no bars and a red "X" next to the bars signifying no signal at all like you're out in the middle of the mountains.
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
I'm having some serious lag issues with CM7 and OTB Kernel. I'm using Noop/Smart Ass currently but I've tried most configurations and it still does it. I'm minimum 100 and max 1200. I'm barely undervolting. I'm not at all with 1200. Facebook will sometimes take over a minute to load and i often get the warning that such and such program is not responding and do I want to wait or force close. I get this with several applications.
[Fascinate General] hazenberger:
This seems to be a common issue. I've found my performance is better using the included kernel from jt at least for now.
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
Thanks for responding. So, are you finding more stable performance with JT kernel?
[Fascinate General] beenz:
Thanks for the reply. Now I need to figure out why I lose connection with the Google servers all the time...
[Fascinate General] lukusb83:
From what I understand, this ROM cannot be flashed from a 32GB SD card. Is there a workaround for this?

Just trying to understand this better, but does anyone know the reason behind this not working with a 32BG SD? 32GB is all I have at the moment and I'm considering grabbing a 16GB SD, but not if there's a workaround.
[Fascinate General] ludevious:
Light sensors stop working after a certain time when using automatic brightness, and proximity sensors stop working to turn the screen on during a call. May have already been addressed but the mobile app is not equipped to search within threads.
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
Wow, who told you that? Not true at all. I have a 32gb SD Card and i flash CM7 and other Roms all the time.
[Fascinate General] K40:
Ok, can we get those running 32gb cards to give a few pieces of info?

1) Manufacturer

2) Speed Rating

3) Whether you have had any issues flashing with this card and AOSP ROMs.

If we can collect data it may help, I am seriously thinking that those who are having issues with theirs may be due to incompatible speed ratings or manufacturer.
[Fascinate General] dr_w:
WINTEC 32GB Class 10. Major issues with this card. Was running COMROM and my card would always say that there was an error on the card. Could fix it by doing a scan from windows a few time but then poof. The card won't even format now. Toast.
[Fascinate General] kwinders:
The last two times I've flashed have been from my 32gb card, no trouble.
[Fascinate General] kwinders:
1- PNY for tablets, from newegg

2- class 10

3- only flashed this rom, last 3 versions.
[Fascinate General] lukusb83:
So weird! I have a SanDisk 32GB Class 4 and can't flash the MIUI or CM7 ROMs at all (no issues whatsoever on other ROMs). I had trouble installing initially and someone mentioned the 32GB SD was the problem.

Every time I try to flash I get a boot-loop where I see the CM7 boot screen, then it counts down from 20 seconds waiting for the SD to mount.

I did try an old 8GB SanDisk from my old BlackBerry and it flashed the ROM without any trouble.
[Fascinate General] TheHobbyist:
Watching twitter... Andmer got mms working and is working with jt to finish it off!
[Fascinate General] dmasjz45:
Truly amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Fascinate General] K40:
Hmm just did a fast search on the Wintec cards. Alot of complaints about the cards. Including a few here in xda.

Not a good sign for them IMO. But the more data we can collect the better, this kind of info can help others if / when they decide to upgrade their cards.
[Fascinate General] ej1911:
Does anyone know how our if you can reset the battery use graph and data under the settings......about.......battery use screen?

thx
[Fascinate General] calbrs:
It will reset when you recharge the battery to 100%. But if you disconnect before you get to 100% it will just keep going.
[Fascinate General] TheChillburger:
Just out of curiosity what kind of battery life are you guys getting? I had mine drop by 12% after two hours with about two minutes of calling and 5 minutes of Facebook. I had Juice Defender turning off 3G. Is there a recommended process to reset battery stats?
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
Not sure what class yet, but I have a SanDisk 32gb SD Card that bought in September from Verizon. I've been using it in my Fascinate since September and haven't had any issues whatsoever with CM7 or any other Roms i've flashed, and believe me, I've flashed a lot!
[Fascinate General] ccampos784:
Right now I'm at about 7 hours on battery with 32% left, and I listened to a hour or two of music, and sent multiple texts, and also checked Facebook and Twitter quite often. All I did was charge it up to 100% then I wiped battery stats in the recovery, then it told me the battery was at 94%, so I charged it back up to 100% and unplugged from there. I'm not using Juice Defender.

If it matters, I'm using the EC09 radio and the kernel that came with the 07/09 build set to the conservative governor.
[Fascinate General] TheChillburger:
I am using the EC01 radio currently. Would you recommend that I flash to EC09? And can I do that without flashing to stock and keeping my current Cyanogen setup?
[Fascinate General] ccampos784:
I have no idea if it's possible without reverting to stock. I flashed it before installing CM7. However, EC09 has given me the best performance out of any radio. I get 0% Time without signal and good download/upload speeds and battery life.

Maybe someone else here can tell you it's possible to Odin the radio while CM7 is installed.
[Fascinate General] TheChillburger:
I am using the EC01 radio currently. Would you recommend that I flash to EC09? And can I do that without flashing to stock and keeping my current Cyanogen setup? And would you recommend the 7/09? I'm running 07/04 currently
[Fascinate General] ccampos784:
I just tried using Odin to push the EC09 radio to my Fascinate with CM7 installed and it works fine and it doesn't erase or break anything. So, its safe to use Odin to install the radio when the phone is in download mode, and you do not need to revert to stock. And yes, it seems to give better battery life and signal, so I would recommend it. Also, If you're on the 07/04 build I feel you should be fine since the major change between the two builds is a rewrite of libaudio that allows you to adjust in-call volume. If you still wish to upgrade, download the new build to your SD card, then boot into recovery from the power menu > reboot > recovery, then wipe Dalvik and cache, and install the new 07/09 build, and it should work fine without erasing your setup.
[Fascinate General] hesh.monster:
Anyone else's phone boot when connected to the charger. Whether I shut down first or try to shut down after plugging in it always boots up

So pardon the total n00b question, but what does CM7 bring?

Is it speed? UI enhancements? Customization?

Is it going to rub my feet, fetch my mail, and fix me a candlelight dinner??? ;)

Just trying to figure out if I should get excited over it and why?

Can someone elaborate over why someone like me would want to run it? (other than I'm a total geek girl who likes this stuff?)
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
I would say 1) gingerbread, 2) we'll finally be able to cut the chord from Samsung. :)
[Fascinate General] juanv145:
In case you haven't tried the current CM7 Roms, CyanogenMod makes the fassy a lot snappier imo, lots of customization (using theme chooser), gingerbread of course, and a lot of other settings to fiddle with to truly make it yours. Once i flashed CM7, I just couldn't go back to CommRom. Once you try it I hope you see why! :D
[Fascinate General] Headcase8911:
.........and yes it will rub your feet and fetch your mail, dinner however is questionable.

Does anybody happen to know where pk is on his work??

[Fascinate General] tonu42:
Cm7 is.similar to aosp so when this new .35 kernel drops we can backport it to any rom if I am not mistaken. So we can build aosp roms miui and all the other goodies. *if I'm right*
[Fascinate General] piizzadude:
I can almost agree. I really liked CM7, stayed with it longer than I should have. The only reason for me switching back was because of some of the broken stuff. Looking forward to a fully working build.

I have to be honest, I and I dont think i saw the answer anywhere, what is all the excitement around the nightly builds?

I gather most of it is fixes/minor enhancements, but is it that earth shattering that you just cannot wait until the next release?
[Fascinate General] bigtlt:
The big deal is not having to wait so long. One little fix that could mean a lot to you might be published in a nightly. But it might not be significant enough for a release. Not to mention some people can't help but be flash happy not unlike myself. And a good excuse to flash something new everyday is nice.

Constructively though nightlies are super nice for bug fixing/reporting
[Fascinate General] kidserious:
People who flash nightlies, they basically become beta testers for the cm team. Nothing like a little trial and error to perfect a rom.
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
Umm, cm7 is AOSP, and we pretty much have a working .35 kernel just need modem fixes.
[Fascinate General] darodeth:
I remember that when I had my Nexus One w/ CM flashed wireless tether was built right into the rom. I have yet to find a way to get wireless tethering working on my Fascinate. It might be there and I'm just blind, but I can't find an option for wireless tether in CM7 Alpha. Does anyone know if wireless tether *should* be included and working in CM7 once it drops to a release version or is there something funky with the fascinate that will always prevent it from working?
[Fascinate General] kidserious:
CM7 does not have that app included with it. I'm assuming that's what you need correct?
[Fascinate General] darodeth:
Yea, every time I use wireless tether or barnacle tether I can't get it to work right though. Oh well, I'll wait for CM7 release to drop for the fascinate before I try to get it going again.

Has anyone been able to get wireless tether to work for CM7? If so what app are you using? did you have to jump through any hoops to get it to work? From the reading I've done on the subject I get the impression that some people have gotten wireless tether to work but whenever I go through the steps they outline it won't work for me.
[Fascinate General] bratliff:
Just an FYI - I am running EF and finally got Wifi Tether to work.. I am anxiously awaiting CM7 but I use my camera for work so I cant try it right now. Anyways here is how I fixed Wifi Tether.

Downloaded the experimental app

Set it to Samsung Fascinate inside the settings.

Did not work.. Reboot Recovery

Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik ( dont know if you need to but I did)

Fix Permissions..

Reboot ..

Ran it again and it works.. worth a shot.
