Donated. Thanks for all the hard work getting us here. I can switch back to my Fascinate and maybe sell my DINC now.

Can anyone chime in about GPS? Still par for the course? Slow to find satelites? I can deal with that as long as it works after a bit.
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
GPS has actually been much faster than on Comm Rom 2.1 for me on ED01 radio.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
yeah, my gps is still slow to lock except for the most ideal of conditions. I think some of these phones just have ****ty gps antennas. :(

Apps -> Terminal Emulator

$ su

# rm /system/app/Music.apk

They can't replace the stock Music app with Google's. Google's is proprietary. Google Music usually replaces the stock Music app, but because of CM changes, the signatures don't match so you get two side-by-side.

Tried 2 flash the dock audio fix over 7/17 build n got status 7 error... Could it be because I'm on the glitch kernel?
[Fascinate Android Development] nobnoobody:
Yes. (10 char)
[Fascinate Android Development] chelper:
I hate that I am having to ask this because I know it will anger many. I've looked through many pages, but the thread has gotten so long, >250 pages. I flashed the rom after odin'ing the newest CWM. No issues installing, but the Gapps will not install. I've flashed it 3 or 4 times in CWM, but still no market, gmail, etc. I can't even add my gmail account because it only shows the ability to add an exchange server account.

I'm sure this question has been answer to a "T" somewhere, but I am not seeing it. I thought I'd ask in hopes that some kind person would point me to the right answer. Thanks in advance and thanks to all the Devs that have made this the best phone I've ever had. And I've been using smart phones since the first version of windows mobile.
[Fascinate Android Development] SOTK:
That will happen when using wifi. You can't send/receive when using wifi. Thats still one of thise little glitches that has yet to be ironed out but im sure will eventually!
[Fascinate Android Development] nobnoobody:
When you try to install Google Apps... are you shutting off the phone and then 3-fingering into recovery?

You have to use the CMR4 embedded in the rom (or kernel you IRC ppl), which means you need to use "Reboot -> Reboot Recovery" and then try to install them.
[Fascinate Android Development] chelper:
Yes, I was using the three finger method to get into CWM.
[Fascinate Android Development] pkopalek:
If anyone is getting browser crashes, try turning plug ins off. Everything from google mobile sites to NY Times crashes browser either with flash or java or html5 (I haven't figured it out).

Anyone else find a work around?
[Fascinate Android Development] nunyazz:
You HAVE to enter CWM from the power down menu or from terminal, NOT from 3 button. Covered many, many, many times...
[Fascinate Android Development] nobnoobody:
What?

1. Always use "On demand" or "Click to Enable" (that goes for Chrome too)

2. HTML5 is not a plugin. Or comparable to a plugin at all really.

3. Java does not exist for Android. (And disabling plugins doesn't disable Javascript, though you can disable it. If disabling javascript affects the stability of your browser on many websites... there's a security issue at play, thus I suspect you're just confused)
[Fascinate Android Development] chelper:
It may have been covered many, many times, but the problem is, the thread is so long, there is no way to read through 264 pages of posts to find the answer. Either way, I think I have fixed it. I tried going to the CWM from the power button, but CWM wasn't working right. When I hit the back button to select something, the screen flashes and it goes back to the main screen. I appreciate the help on it.

Time to share. CM7 + Glitch ML kernel

bfq, ondemand, 100,200,400,800,1000,1200,1400 all set to -50mV

This is on a 10.09 launch device too. Initially I was running these settings on the HL kernel because i figured a launch device would most likely have a high leakage cpu because of how cpu yields usually work, but after a complete wipe and rebuild I went ML with the same settings. Seems better.

Saw an even 3000 and decided it deserved a screen shot. Seems to me I remember when a 1200 was the norm....maybe I'm remembering it wrong. Fascinating either way.
[Fascinate Android Development] nobnoobody:
On the one hand, nearly every page has someone posting instructions to not use three finger recovery... :rolleyes:

On the other hand... you do present a good point. I've been flip flopping kernels a lot and I've had several times where the new blue recovery will mis-map my soft keys and I have to reboot and try again.
[Fascinate Android Development] scarmon25:
On the new recovery on mine search=enter/select and back is the actual back button. Only recovery I've ever used with that combo. Took me a minute to figure it out

Tap-a-Talked from my CM7'd Mesmerize :)
[Fascinate Android Development] M00NEY:
That is a result of the hosts file - exactly what gets adjusted with the apps that were recommended. It is simple; it just puts known ads into the hosts file with an IP of 127.0.0.1 (loopback) so you get nothing where they should be. Since the host file is checked before DNS, you never have to see the ads. Some apps will have ads that make it through - Angry Birds is an example, where Rovio's ads show up, but only theirs. Some apps that have a space specifically for ads, like TFLN, will have a blank spot in lieu of the ad, but it is throughout the device.

What the apps do is update the host file for you, and they get pretty complete lists. I use Adfree. It is free and it works beautifully. Just remember to run the checker every once in a while and do not listen when the app tells you you do not need to.

His mention of Firefox did not mean that only the browser would be affected in the ROM.
[Fascinate Android Development] drnihili:
The key mappings are different in blue. Use volume rocker to highlight what you want, then power button to activate it.
[Fascinate Android Development] wideopn11:
I just have to point out that this thread may be long but I cant believe you didn't even read the first page.

"When flashed the first time, your filesystems will be converted to MTD (yaffs2/ext4). Do not try to flash any other ROMs via cwm at that point, and

do not try to get into recovery via the 3 button method

. Use adb reboot recovery or the reboot recovery option from the power menu. To revert, and switch to another ROM, flash a full Odin/Heimdall package (like DL09)."

[Fascinate Android Development] JOrtenzi:
Hi everyone... I am fairly new to XDA (have been a lurker for a few months, but just started posting)

However, I am an avid member on AC, so I know my way around the Fascinate pretty well.

Anyway... have been on UKB 2.1 and finally decided to give CM7 a try. All went well in the flash, however, when I flashed GAPPS, I feel as if it didn't flash completely. (the progress bar only filled up about 1/5 of the way before the script finished running and said "install complete")

The main reason I feel that it did not complete is because I am still missing most of the Google apps (mail, maps, navigation...). It did however install the market.

At a loss of what to do next... any advice would be appreciated!

And yes, I did boot into recovery from the menu selection... NOT the three finger method.

Thanks guys!
[Fascinate Android Development] dwight28:
when i install a gingerbread rom, my 4 touch buttons dont work.. help?
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
Go get the apps you want from the market. If you got that far it worked fine.
[Fascinate Android Development] kwinders:
I've answered at least once previously.

I use the new PNY 32gb class 10 for tablets, got it from Newegg.

I have flashed the last 3 updates from this card.

I have also tried the new one from R2, nandroid back ups and restores, also the new Glitch kernel from Times.

So I would say yes you can use 32gb cards, maybe only certain ones, could not tell you about any others but the one I have and it has been flawless.

Thanks JT for your continued great work.
[Fascinate Android Development] JOrtenzi:
Thanks... I was going to do that if I didn't get any help...

but I thought all those apps were packaged in the flashable zip? Am I wrong?
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
Not really. There's a screen that pops up that lets you check which apps you want to install and the list is mostly Google apps but not all. But all it is is a forwarder that takes you to the market pages for the apps you checked. You still end up getting them from the market anyways. All that does is make it so you can get the market to begin with.
[Fascinate Android Development] JOrtenzi:
ah, I gotcha.... thank you for the info, I appreciate it! Thanks coming..
[Fascinate Android Development] Wacky2bakky:
boot loop?

just followed the instructions to flash the CM7 from comrom 2.1. I am stuck in a loop when it started to flash. I get the samsung logo, then galaxy s cyanogen mod screen. then "clockworkmod recovery v4.0.1.0 then waiting for sd card to mount over and over again with a countdown" Anyone have any idea what i should do?
[Fascinate Android Development] shorto85:
All we need now is for flashlight apps to work and this rom will be perfect.
[Fascinate Android Development] mmtoman:
Thanks. Sucks that my card wont work with my phone!! Going from a 32gb card to 16gb totally sucks !!

Thanks a ton to jt and everyone else who has participated

PS didn't mean to sound snotty in my earlier post
[Fascinate Android Development] Tkun:
Anyone know why this rom works for a number of hours, maybe even a day, but then tons of stuff starts force closing, like GAPPS, and other non-Google applications, like E-mail, Titanium Backup, Amazon Appstore? If I'm lucky, the force closing eventually goes away, but it usually returns later. Wiping cache and dalvik doesn't work, nor does reflashing the rom or a kernel. A battery pull seems to work, but after a few minutes of being on, it starts occurring again. If I really want a quick fix for my issue I have to wipe my data. The same issue happens with MIUI, so I'm guessing it has something to do with being on an AOSP rom.

Any other ways to fix this?

Just flashed the cardock zip from the OP. Now, when I try to open the browser I get the following message:

"Sorry! The application Browser (process com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

any info or fixes for this?

Wifi connects on reboot for me, but no sync or data unless I toggle airplane mode or wifi.

+1

Except that I don't get "force close" so to speak. The apps just start disappearing, and the vibrate starts going NUTS. Menus pop up on my screen, the keyboard comes out to play when I am on the homescreen (a keyboard should NOT be there!)

Question: were you on the default kernel, or on the Glitch Kernel?
[Fascinate Android Development] caesus:
So just to confirm, the 11.1 update is actually a kernel and therefore means I can't use the glitch kernel if I want the fixes, correct?
[Fascinate Android Development] lane32x:
I believe I saw this asked a few pages ago and the answer was that you are correct. Until they incorporate those fixes into Glitch.
[Fascinate Android Development] Tkun:
I was on the Glitch kernel. I'm wiping all my data and starting anew using the DockAudioandCompass kernel, we'll see how that goes.

[Fascinate Android Development] spinnum:
I used Titanium Back to restore my shortcuts for the browser...now the browser keeps force closing. Is there a simpler way of restoring browser to original settings without a wipe?
[Fascinate Android Development] iifuzz:
I dont see him mention it in the OP... its not the radio bug.

Also, i did describe it a bit wrong.. its the screen that shuts off, not the phone.

Normally the screen turns off when the proximity sensor detects your face, which is how it should be... but as of right now, the proximity sensor works for a few seconds, then the screen just shuts off until the power button is pressed.
[Fascinate Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
You can just clear the data for the browser and that will fix it. Unfortunately you can't restore any system apps or data since they are from different OS versions
[Fascinate Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
Did you flash the updated kernel that improves sensors? That is mentioned in the OP
[Fascinate Android Development] M00NEY:
I use SMS Backup+ for this. AFAIK, there is no way to use TB to accomplish backing up and restoring call logs and text messages. SMS Backup+ backs up my call log and my text messages. Can be set to run automagically, is free and works great.

Restore is also easy as pie. After a rebuild/wipe, I just restore SMS Backup+ with TB and then use it to restore my call logs and my text messages in one swoop - or swype...

Car Dock audio patch works perfectly. Thanks JT!:D

I tried a plug-in headset (not bluetooth) yesterday for a phone call--all the talk of phone radiation causing brain cancer has me trying to find ways to avoid holding the phone to my ear--and the other caller could not hear me at all.

Hey, I made a guide targeted to noobs to get a working adb environment up and running. It's useful to have setup in case you run into a bootloop or happen to set a bad undervolt/overclock. Hopefully it helps some people out if they run into issues and get locked out of blue recovery.

The guide is located here
[Fascinate Android Development] scarmon25:
Yeah. The old phone were like 1 and 2 watts. The ones today are a fraction of that. I remember reading on that when this radiation scare started. Truth is were exposed to radiation everyday by everything. Some is harmless, others not so much. If cell phones give you brain cancer then I guess I am screwed. Cause I'm not giving up my toy/hobby. I love technology and am going to play with it till it kills me, which with all the hype lately, might not be tok far off. :D

[Fascinate Android Development] JOrtenzi:
Love this ROM so far... thanks JT!

Couple of questions (for anyone)

1) Is there a reason why you are unable to toggle 3G on and off with this ROM? I tend to like that feature to save battery when I know I am not going to be using data for an extended period of time.

2) Under contacts... I am unable to "link" contacts to each other (like facebook account to gmail to phone). It used to be an option under edit contacts, but it is no longer there. Is there anyway else to do this?

Thanks for any info!
[Fascinate Android Development] mxpxrobbie:
Is everybody that uses this only using the Samsung MicroSD card?

I have problems when I use a Sandisk 16GB that Verizon gave me after the GB leak fried my stock SD card...

CWM can't mount it, and it randomly unmounts in CM7.

I had to revert to stock until this is fixed... I use my camera a LOT.

Otherwise, CM7 with the Glitch11 kernel is AWESOME.

Use power controls widget to toggle 3g and other things.

You can link contacts, its just a few more steps. Pick a contact, click edit, then bottom left soft key again, click join.

man.... that was easy. I swear I was playing all night last night trying to figure both of those out.... boy, do I feel dumb!

Anyway.... thanks for the quick response and help!
[Fascinate Android Development] kent1146:
Your problem is that you're using the wrong CWM.

You need to use Odin to push out a blue CWM v4.0 (download link in the original post). Once you push out CWM v4.0, you can jump in and install the ROM.

Note, that it is perfectly normal to install the ROM, have your phone automatically reboot back into recovery, and install the ROM again.
[Fascinate Android Development] Tkun:
No longer getting a huge amount of force closes. I think I've only gotten one so far, and I've had this rom on my phone for almost 12 hours now. I think the Glitch kernel was causing my phone to be unstable.

[Fascinate Android Development] harpdoc:
It sounds great in my car running into the aux-in. It sounds the same as running out of the headphone jack. That said, my car is a Mazda and they are famous for causing lots of alternator whine when using aux-in and charging at the same time, which the car dock does. Other cars also do this. I had to install a cheap little 12v ground lift filter in my car, which solved the issue. None of this has anything to do with JT's audio fix, which works flawlessly.
