[Fascinate Android Development] Macguyver:
yeah I was, I'll have to go read up again, must have missed that the first time.

Sadly I had to go back to stock for now. My screen was doing things on its own and not responding at times. Wifi is unreliable, and the real kicker is that three times this week after the phone a acted up I would do a reboot and when it came back up I would get a bunch of FCs and then it was like I had done a wipe of everything and done a fresh install, it wanted me to setup the phone again. I couldn't reboot and a battery pull didn't help. So I'm back to stock for now.
[Fascinate Android Development] Macguyver:
Yep, the wifi has been terrible for me, slow, unreliable and a pita to switch back and forth from because you have to toggle airplane mode first then it might connect. 3g is up and down too.

I appreciate all the work but it just isn't working for me yet. Hopefully some updates will iron out the bugs.
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
are you using the EC09 radio, you may have to try different radios, but you shouldn't be having any trouble with your 3G, it wouldn't hurt to call Verizon just to make sure if you still are having trouble.
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
I still can't get over how much smoother the glitch kernel is...
[Fascinate Android Development] caesus:
Agreed, I hope they fold the dock audio fix into it soon.
[Fascinate Android Development] Mikes30000:
Are you referring to flashing the 90screenstate script to change the screen on governor?
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
Which are you running High, Low or Medium leakage? I'm running High @ 1440 max and 400 min with ondemand governors. My benchmark, for what it's worth, went from 1950 with the nemesis kerneal to 2480 with glitch, the only thing I don't like is the white colors now seem to be a bit faded. Do you have any sound from the "voodoo lady" when you boot your phone?
[Fascinate Android Development] eibbed0001:
If you install Voodoo Control from the market it offers options for adjusting the color levels. That's what I did.
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
cool didn't think about that, I'll try that
[Fascinate Android Development] BSayre18:
I don't have a market app for some reason. I even downloaded the apk and installed it, but whenever i open it it just closes right away. Also, when i go to settings/accounts and try to add my google account the only option is an exchange account. I keep trying to flash gapps and via rebooting to cwm and it says

opening update package...

installing update...

checking state fo BML/MTD...

Install from sdcard complete.

The rom though works perfect and i haven't had a single issue but no google functions at all.

[Fascinate Android Development] Bubbadogg14:
Weird observation... Last nite I left my phone off the charger n put it in airplane mode over nite... My battery was 100% n fresh off the charger before I went 2 bed.... When I woke up I had 60% battery left n noticed in cpu spy my phone didn't deep sleep at all over nite... It ran at the 200 step all nite ( I have 100 disabled)...phone enters deep sleep like it should normally except in airplane mode it seems
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
I've never had any luck with airplane mode, my battery still goes down...
[Fascinate Android Development] JOrtenzi:
hmmm.... sounds like you have a wake-lock (not allowing it to go into deep sleep while locked)

which lock screen are you using?
[Fascinate Android Development] Bubbadogg14:
Rotary revamped... Phone haa entered deep sleep normally since turning off airplane mode but I usually put it in airplane mode over nite on the charger just last nite I didn't need 2 charge it so I noticed it wasn't deep sleeping b.c. of the battery drain n cpu spy but b.c. I use airplane mode every nite I'd like 2 figure this out (being that the phone can't remain off 2 be charged which kinda sucks)
[Fascinate Android Development] eibbed0001:
I had a similar experience except I don't know the technical settings and haven't made changes to them.

Also on the same rotary lock.
[Fascinate Android Development] xceebeex:
Is anyone else having problems with gmail syncing properly? Lately when I delete emails on the phone it doesn't delete them from the actual server so eventually they all pop back up. Anyone have any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] sageDieu:
That has happened to me just randomly for no reason, even on like stock eclair and froyo. Try clearing data and cache for gmail and for accounts and sync.

Sent from my MIUI SCH-i500
[Fascinate Android Development] StDevious:
Did you tell them that you were on a custom ROM or what did they ask ?
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
has anyone ran into any problems while using glitch, my phone just shuts off and I get stuck in a boot loop, had to odin back to reset it,
[Fascinate Android Development] akellar:
First off, would probably make more sense to ask in the Glitch thread but it's probably because you are undervolting too much.
[Fascinate Android Development] xceebeex:
There is only a setting for me to clear data on gmail. It won't let me do anything with account and sync settings.
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
I asked here because I knew people were using it on the I500 with CM7, I didn't think about the undervolting good point.
[Fascinate Android Development] solido888:
People are using glitch with all the AOSP roms, it doesnt mean it makes sense to ask in the rom threads if the question pertains to a kernel that has its own thread.
[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
I just told them every since the 2.2 update I've been having signal trouble, turns out they had an error in their system and I got moved to another network, they fixed it and it's been perfect ever since. If they had asked about what ROM I was using I would have lied and said factory 2.2, they can't tell over the phone, because I was using CM7 while I was talking to them. Only if you go to the store would they be able to tell, so odin back to factory if you go to the store.
[Fascinate Android Development] speedingcheetah:
What kernel is this rom using...I see the Glitch kernel thread is at 11.1..so does this rom already include it or is it a different kernel?
[Fascinate Android Development] AlexDeGruven:
That was actually a database issue that happened to occur right around the same time as the 2.2 OTA. While they were doing some work on the LTE networks in certain areas, it caused something to get borked in the 3G provisioning databases. The only way to fix it is to reactivate the ESN, either by switching off to a different phone and back again, or through using a dummy ESN.
[Fascinate Android Development] jpricesd:
It's a different kernel. The ROM comes with its own stock kernel. The Glitch kernel is just another option.
[Fascinate Android Development] speedingcheetah:
Where can i find info on what the stock kernel has..does stock have voodoo sound/color etc...or is that just glitch?
[Fascinate Android Development] jpricesd:
I believe the stock kernel is pretty stock, but it does support voodoo sound according to the OP.
[Fascinate Android Development] speedingcheetah:
But no Voodoo color on stock.. The current posts on the Glitch kernel are reporting problems, low sound and battery drain are common...may just be the way some set the voltage settings..but the Glitch kernel seems more jam packed with features than OTB..

Any one have the missed call problem on CM?

Also, what modem does this flash? Or does it keep current modem?
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
Relax, it's not worth a 152 over 98, and it won't matter in 10,000 years, I promise.
[Fascinate Android Development] jpricesd:
The low volume problem is in all the kernels, but I can't really tell a difference from previous ROMS to be honest. The next Glitch kernel is supposed to address the low call volume problem. As for missed calls, I can't say that I have missed any and I have been using CM for a few weeks now.

This does not include a radio, so you will have whatever radio you currently have.
[Fascinate Android Development] mmtoman:
So whats the consensus on the best modem for this rom
[Fascinate Android Development] Bubbadogg14:
Jt said he used EC09 during all testing n I seem 2 be having the best results a it also.... Haven't tried ED05 modem yet tho
[Fascinate Android Development] speedingcheetah:
If it doesn't flash a modem, then why is there a modem.bin in the download .zip?
[Fascinate Android Development] gkirby11:
It does include a modem, EB01 if I am not mistaken.

ED05 works quite well so far, but supposedly there is an issue with a slight increased battery drain for more upload speed. :rolleyes:

No problems with it so far outside of an MMS issue which I don't think was related to it.
[Fascinate Android Development] BrwnSuperman:
I've been using ED05 for the past day. Came from EC09. I think my battery drain is almost equal to EC09. A little over 5 hours every 25%. The upload speed and connection is more stable. Your mortar may vary.
[Fascinate Android Development] shaels:
Apologies if these have been asked before, kind of difficult to wade through so many pages of posts:

1) In-call volume and speaker volume seem low even on the loudest settings

2) Even when I make sure vibrate is off for notifications, I'm still getting it when I receive Gmail (and possible in other scenarios too). I've checked sound, profiles, CWM, and the app settings itself

3) Nightly builds; I see there are a few "main" builds in the OP but where exactly do we go for nightlies and will we see a change log on those? Wondering how often it's worth flashing

4) Modem: I've been using the one that came with the all-in-one ROM, seems like the best radio for now is EC09 and potentially ED with more user testing

5) Kernel: again, using the all-in-one, see some people have posted about using Glitch or OTB, wondering if there was a consensus on the best kernel for stability and battery life. As is, this thing FLIES relative to running stock or the Blackhole ROM.

6) Battery life: in general, if anyone has any suggestions of things I should do with this particular ROM, I'm open. I don't use wifi, attempted (with the above exception) to keep vibrate off, often use data off during the day because of poor signal in the office, run airplane mode on the subway, bluetooth off, auto brightness, dropped a bunch of animations, and calibrate the battery after I flashed

Overall, this distribution has been fantastic, totally breathed new life into my phone, it's as if I just picked up something new from the store. Very happy.
[Fascinate Android Development] JOrtenzi:
I came from EC09 and flashed ED05 (modem only) yesterday.... TBH, my 3G with ED05 seems worse than it was with EC09.

Going to give it another day or two...
[Fascinate Android Development] userno69:
So I'm finally running this ROM and so far, I've been able to solve ever minor issue I've encountered. However, I just discovered something that seems unfortunate :(

The accelerometer "works", albeit quite poorly. It has very choppy response. About all it's good for is rotating the screen. Any game that relies on it you can automatically cross off your list.

My question is, has anybody found a way to fix or improve this situation? Does a different kernel help? If no to this, does anybody know if this is being worked on, or is work on the sensors considered to be finished?
[Fascinate Android Development] speedingcheetah:
Clarify install instuctions?

So, I am Com Rom 2.1 now...and cwr is ver. 3...can I flash CM7 from that or do I have to install the special CWR listed in the OP...it says under the Update for 7/17 "MAKE SURE to flash one of the attached recoveries if you are coming from a BML ROM" but I don't know if it means before installing the rom or after? Please let me know what order to install this, don't want to brick my phone...

EDIT: So, just got a PM, So definitely flash the recovery in OP first, then install..Ok, got it...
[Fascinate Android Development] gkirby11:
Yes you need to be on the CWR (CWR4) from the OP. If you do not know what type of ROM you are on (and its not AOSP) you are on a BML. Just follow the instructions laid in the OP and you will be fine.

@userno69

Yes the kernel seems to help. Head over to Glitch's thread and give it a try after reading Times's OP post. The kernel has sped up my sensors immensely.
[Fascinate Android Development] StDevious:
Anybody get GPS working ?
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
GPS on CM7 with the EC09 modem has been instant essentially, it works everytime right away for me
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
I don't know but when I installed CM7 I odin'd the stock Rom, and then the next thing I did was Odin the EC09 modem. It stayed through flashing cwm, cm7 Rom, and glitch kernel....so none of them are flashing a modem.
[Fascinate Android Development] JOrtenzi:
uggg.... had to reflash.... now I am getting the "abort 7" message from CWR...

not sure what to do
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
So why do we have Rom manager installed if it doesn't recognize that CWR is already installed? You can't do anything in Rom Manager because it thinks you haven't installed a recovery yet. Aren't we supposed to be using it to check for the nightlies soon?
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
Start all the way back over, Odin DL09 stock Rom with Atlas PIT and repartition checked and follow the instructions from there.
[Fascinate Android Development] vlucchetti:
+1. Fastest I've had GPS load on mine.
[Fascinate Android Development] vlucchetti:
I had great success using the EB01, then jumping to ec09 then cm7
[Fascinate Android Development] StDevious:
I have 1.2 GB internal memory free but market says can't install app because of not enough space ? I'm trying to install chomp SMS
[Fascinate Android Development] Ritchell:
By any chance, are you running the new market app that you installed yourself? I've heard that some people who installed the new market app themselves got this not enough space problem, and that it was fixable by reverting to the old app (and going back to the new one again).
[Fascinate Android Development] StDevious:
no it's the old one that came with the ROM
[Fascinate Android Development] Sgtmack:
I really liked this ROM, but had to go back to UKB. The in call volume and flaky 3G were too bad to ignore. I flashed back to UKB 2.1 setup, and now my wife can hear me, and Pandora doesn't take 10 seconds to load the next song.

As soon as those get fixed, I'll be back. If I get time, I might even work on a theme for it.
[Fascinate Android Development] jpricesd:
You could try reflashing GAPPS. I had this problem, but I was running the new market. I flashed GAPPS again and it seemed to have fixed it.
[Fascinate Android Development] StDevious:
3G problem is not the ROM, it's Verizon. Look here for a fix. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1181181

Or go here where it was posted the first time http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1051543
[Fascinate Android Development] Gurm:
My experience with this ROM has been almost universally positive, except for two things:

1. Due to a large amount of notifications (I get my corporate e-mail on this phone) the soft-LED's never ever turn off. Ever. They turn off and then back on. I'm sure there's a setting somewhere to not turn them on for notifications. So that's me being lazy.

2. OMG VOLUME IS SO LOW. I know others have said it, but it's not just calls. It's music over the headphone jack, it's speaker volume. Clear across the board there's like 50% attenuation on all sounds. Hopefully this is addressed in a new kernel.

3. A little choppy, I wonder if the stock kernel is undervolted at all? I can't, for example, play music in the background while playing "Angry Birds". This is the first ROM which can't do that. I'm going to try Glitch kernel next and see how that fares.

Overall very positive, but might need to drop back to something else until I can hear my wife on the phone.

[Fascinate Android Development] xvoorheesx:
Two things? Call me crazy, but....

I count one plus two. ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
You're crazy.

What? You said to...
[Fascinate Android Development] Sgtmack:
I went back and forth twice. It's the rom. Stock, and ukb I have great download speeds. On CM, not so much.

I did have to do the ESN swap on the phone before this one. This wasn't the same problem. I didn't lose signal, it was just really slow. Pandora timed out trying to go to the next song several times. 10 minutes later, back on ukb, it works great.
[Fascinate Android Development] thewaytolite:
is there a fix for the video codecs yet?
[Fascinate Android Development] userno69:
Hey guys I've got a number of questions that are probably fairly simple answers here, but I'm a noob so not for me haha :p

Anyway, I am on the Mesmerize version of this rom which has been brought up to speed with the fascinate build so I assume things will work similarly. Anyway my questions would be as follows:

1. Does anybody know if the dock audio and compass fix works on the mesmerize?

2. My GPS does not work at all for navigation. It gets my location but that is literally all. Obviously I have a mesmerize radio, and I'm not sure which one, but my GPS did work on my previous official Froyo USCC rom. Sometimes it look some prodding to get a lock but the blue circle always got smaller and finally locked. Now it is just a giant circle and never locks. Anybody know a solution for this?

3. When I do the three finger method for recovery on my phone, it takes me to cwm 2.5.1.x which obviously no longer works. I need to do the power off menu method get to CWM 4. If I flash the attached odin build of CWM 4 that is in the OP, will that bring the three-finger version from 2.5.1.x to version 4, and if so, does it work on the mesmerize?

4. Does anybody know if the glitch kernel works on the mesmerize?

LASTLY, when I was on the official USCC Froyo ROM, when I synced my facebook account, not only did it sync the contacts but it also added facebook birthdays and events into the google calendar. Now nothing gets synced into the google calendar, all I get are the contacts. Anybody know how to have things sync into the calendar? When I go to the google calendar options, I can look at my gmail calendar but it does not let me sync any other calendars with it??

Thanks for any assistance :)
[Fascinate Android Development] rigglemania:
You have to make use of profiles for this.

Yeah, first kernel that fixes this wins me over most likely.

I tried what you mentioned and both the music and angry birds ran smooth as butter for me on the stock kernel. I've never noticed that it was choppy in any way shape or form, but a lot of people swear Glitch kernel is faster. Personally everything seems like lightning compared to the old TouchWiz/RFS days, so maybe I'm just not discerning enough :p
[Fascinate Android Development] Boushh:
This thread hurts my soul.

Those are my only six issues with this ROM.
[Fascinate Android Development] xtrimsky:
I have installed CM7 successfully, but then I cannot install GAPPS.

I have tried redoing everything but it does not work.

In recovery it says GAPPS installed successfully, but then when I boot I don't see anything :s.

I'm using ED05, any ideas ?
[Fascinate Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
Yeah, open the freaking market.
[Fascinate Android Development] xtrimsky:
I mean I don't have the market, it says it installed successfully, I reboot, and I have nothing in the drawer. It doesn't ask me to add a google account or anything.
[Fascinate Android Development] deafptl4ever:
Did you install the fix? It was pretty far off before I flashed the fix he has on firts page and its spot on now.:)
[Fascinate Android Development] xtrimsky:
The compass and audio fix ?

No, I will try it thanks :)
[Fascinate Android Development] jami2976:
have you tried going into the general fascinate forums and tried to install the new market? dont know if it will work but if you have no market at all then i would say its worth a try

heres the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1167664
[Fascinate Android Development] xtrimsky:
No it doesn't work because then it says that I don't have a google account linked to my phone, and I cannot link a google account because its not in the list of possible accounts
[Fascinate Android Development] jami2976:
first off have you even tried to install it? once its installed it will prompt you...also have you tried going into accounts and sync and manually adding it from there?
[Fascinate Android Development] Droiddude24:
Is it me or does the ring volume seem low?
[Fascinate Android Development] rigglemania:
Volume for pretty much everything is low. Hearsay is that the next version of Glitch kernel will supposedly improve/fix that.
[Fascinate Android Development] drnihili:
Sounds like GAPPS failed. Try flashing it again. If that doesn't work, redownload and reflash GAPPS.
[Fascinate Android Development] nobnoobody:
Hi.

Does anyone seem to have *good* luck with the GPS? If I'm even lucky enough to get a proper GPS lock using Google Navigation... it's only after waiting 10-15 minutes or longer.

Is this related to my use of the Glitch kernel? I know I had problems a week or so ago getting a lock with the stock kernel... I didn't know if maybe it's been fixed but not incorporated into Glitch.

Is it possible that some Fascinates have bad GPS sensors?

Thanks.

edit: I have both "just open[ed] GPS Status" and also used the Tools in the menu to "reset" and then "download agps data". Everything was "successful" yet my problems persist. :[
[Fascinate Android Development] userno69:
I've got the mesmerize and I have the same problem. It will not work for navigation. I also tried the reset/download with GPS status... have you flashed the dock and compass fix? Anybody know if that works on the mesmerize?
[Fascinate Android Development] Ritchell:
My GPS locks, in the house, within 20 seconds at most. At that time I was running EC09, Glitch kernel, and the ROM and GAPPs supplied in this thread. Last night I flashed ED05, so I cannot say what my GPS performance is currently.
[Fascinate Android Development] eibbed0001:
I just tested mine and Google Maps locked in accurately in less than 30 seconds (I wasn't counting). I have the latest CM7 11.1, Glitch kernel and DL09. I purposely used GPS only and not any other location services.

I hope you get it worked out!
[Fascinate Android Development] rigglemania:
For anyone having GPS troubles, I downloaded "GPS Aids v2" from the market and used it to install forced LTO, and since then I've almost always gotten a lock within 10-15 seconds. Granted I also use "GPS Status & Toolbox" with AGPS update set to every hour to "warm up" my GPS before I actually use it with anything. Still, it works - for me at least.

Don't know if this will help anyone else but GPS has always been tricky on this phone, so just sharing what has worked for me.
[Fascinate Android Development] rigglemania:
On another note, I hate to point out the 800lb gorilla in the room, but why is battery life so terrible on this ROM compared to TW-based ROMs? I'm not necessarily asking for a fix (though that would be awesome), I'm just curious as to why it's that way? I measured an 11% loss in charge over a short night (6 hours) whereas with stock and kanged roms I'd usually lose 2-3% tops in a whole night (8-10 hours). And this is with wireless location services turned off, as some have suggested.

It's not ruining the phone for me per se as I'm usually not away from a charger for more than 8-10 hours at a time, but still... kind of a downer.
[Fascinate Android Development] mxpxrobbie:
my Sandisk card works fine in everything else I've used it in... No problems whatsoever. I've even swapped it out for another. I read something on the CM7 boards that says the new Recovery has problems with Sandisk cards... thought maybe that was the problem.
