Thanks for the info but no need to "LOL" at people. I'm not a noob but definitely not a dev so I and most wouldn't know this. Again thanks for the info
[Fascinate Android Development] bschrib:
jt -- I just want to first tell you that the work you've done is amazing. I just upgraded from my OG Droid to the Fascinate and thanks to your amazing work the timing could not have been any better.

I'm not sure how you did it, but you managed to convert the filesystem and get everything working awesomely. I've been looking into and hoping to find a way to get one last filesystem updated - the SD Card. I've noticed that most people have pretty slow write times to their SD cards and I can't help but to feel that part of the problem is the FAT32. Would there be anyway to configure Android so that it allows (and doesn't say it's a bad SD card) either Ext4 or NTFS filesystem?

The closest I've come to this is a thread for the SGS2 which talks about using fuse.ko and ntfs-3g and then writing a script but I haven't been able to figure out how to get it off the ground.

Im having some trouble trying to flash it. I was on Com Rom and wiped Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache and it didn't work. So then I tried the fix and flashed it through Odin and it still didn't work... Then I flashed the phone back to stock and then tried it. Still didn't work. So then I installed the fix with Odin with no luck. I keep getting the error "Status Aborted - status 7." Anyone know how to fix this?

The recovery switched to blue in test build ten, not from rom manager. As far as I know Rom Manager is still a big no-no for us and i'm not going to try it to find out if it works now. I've had a hard enough time not soft bricking as it is. ( not the ROM's fault, my own for trying to rush )

kuronosan -

there must have been something different because before I couldn't get any activesync connection and could not get the phone to activate (no phonecalls, no 3g data). After applying the kernel and then re-applying 0713 everything worked properly.
[Fascinate Android Development] lane32x:
*edit* Haptic doesn't die for me, my capacitive buttons die!!!

Yup. This happens to me as well. As far as I can tell, this is THE ONLY bug that is affecting my phone since the newest CM7 (test 10).

*edit* I'm going to test this out, but it seems like if you hit the BACK button before turning the phone back on, the buttons might still work after you unlock it.

And I'll second the question, would Logcat help at all? or is that JUST for force-closes?

This hasn't happened to me since I flashed test 10, but I'll keep my eye out. I was having the modem die probably once per day previous to test 10.

[Fascinate Android Development] vudiff:
It's been mentioned & explained many times... install 07/04 first then 07/13
[Fascinate Android Development] vlucchetti:
Okay, ready to do this. I'm on UKB 2.1 now, so all I do is odin the recovery first, then install the ROM and gapps, correct?
[Fascinate Android Development] fifreak:
I can see this happening as well.

[Fascinate Android Development] adude247:
Yeah, I'm going to stay with this ROM, I'm wanting to see how the nightlies work out...I do love to tinker !!!
[Fascinate Android Development] RyanBluebirds:
I got assert errors just trying to flash the 7/13 build from ComRom. I ended up flashing the 7/4 build, booting it up. Getting to recovery via the power button menu>restart>recovery, and then flashed the 7/13 build and everything went smooth. Then I flashed Gapps.
[Fascinate Android Development] willg_smith:
Ok. Ill try it when I get home.
[Fascinate Android Development] mastamoon:
Then you have something thats causing a "wake lock"... use the command given under my post recommending cpuspy to find out what it is.
[Fascinate Android Development] AlexDeGruven:
Update your android SDK, then choose 'Update Driver' from the 'Other Devices' entry in Device manager.

LED Flash control is still flaky at best.

how to boost performance

just wanted to let everyone know that i went into the performance tweaks in settings and disabled everything and overclock to 1200mhz. The phone runs as quick/smooth as superclean 2.9.2 roms now. i was having problems with it being really laggy and taking a while to load all apps, now it works perfect. im also using launcher pro which seems to be noticeable smoother than adw launcher. just wanted to let everyone know that was frustrated with performance drop but wanted to amazingness of this rom.
[Fascinate Android Development] aolander:
Cool. I've tried Barnacle before and had no luck with AP mode. Sounds a bit easier than my stumbling. ;-)
[Fascinate Android Development] fifreak:
Went looking for that command and couldnt find it. Mind reposting?
[Fascinate Android Development] mastamoon:
there it is :)

And I believe you are looking for a line under the mLocks.size= line near the bottom of that output.
[Fascinate Android Development] ckevinwelch:
Wow, I didn't think to look in profiles for BLN control. I asked for the ability to disable BLN weeks ago, but there's really just one app I didn't want it for. I add a group for it, turned the lights off, and its perfect! Note that I did have to change profiles and back for it to take effect.

Anyone who wants to disable BLN entirely can just turn light notifications off for all apps in the default profile. Thanks again!

So if I am getting zero for that, how do I find culprit?

[Fascinate Android Development] jpricesd:
There are no settings that I know of, but I have found that some apps don't work with it.
[Fascinate Android Development] mackeydesigns:
Not sure if this bug has been reported yet or not.

My phone kept ringing after I answered the call, that was a first. I could hear both my wife on the other end and the ring tone in my ear :/
[Fascinate Android Development] jpricesd:
This happened to me earlier as well. I have been using the latest build since it was released and it was the first time it has happened.
[Fascinate Android Development] Eris _2.1_2010:
Hmmm its not working with anything.
[Fascinate Android Development] drnihili:
I've noticed that once. Also my ringtone sometimes plays the default even though I've set "no override" in the profile and the selection in Sounds still shows my custom tone.

Also having issues with display not coming on when I remove the phone from my face. Pressing the power button makes it turn on, but that's a hassle at times.
[Fascinate Android Development] mackeydesigns:
+1 to both of those.
[Fascinate Android Development] scarmon25:
I used zedge to set my ringtone and haven't had that issue since. As for the screen going dark. Haven't found a wlrk around for it yet

Waiting for SD card to mount...

Can someone help me? I keep getting this? I flashed the one from the 4th and it reboots and starts saying waiting for SD card to mount and it does this for 20 seconds and it just reboots and it keeps doing this... How can I fix this??? :(
[Fascinate Android Development] bigwilly90210:
not gonna lie, I know a lot of people are new since the MMS got fixed but good gravy do you guys not read at all? every 3 posts is something "new" that they're "not sure if anyone's posted yet". I'm not trying to be pissy, just saying most of what you're "reporting" has already been acknowledged and is probably being worked on.

/endrant

on the flipside, anyone confirm exactly what's triggering the softkeys not working? it only happens to me when i open gmail notifications.
[Fascinate Android Development] BrwnSuperman:
Holy crap, I just realized on this our phones recognize up to 10 touches at once, back on touchwiz it was 5.
[Fascinate Android Development] bqq100:
Is there anyway to extend the softkey backlight timeout through this the ROM? If not I may try the modified services.jar file here, but I'm afraid it may screw up things with the ROM since some things are themed.

Also anyone notice the light sensor for automatic brightness seems to be very flaky?

Other than that I'm loving the ROM. Just bought a used Fascinate and had CM7 installed and running on the phone before I even activated it! :D

Issue with Orientation Sensors lag

This is NOT a big deal, but I just noticed after downloading the SpeedX 3D game.

I used to play this game a lot and never had any issues before. This is the first time I try it using CM7 and it's completely unplayable. Looks like whenever you tilt the phone it takes a very long time for the sensor to register it. :(

A small price to pay for a really great ROM :D
[Fascinate Android Development] nobnoobody:
Yes, these phantom button presses are becoming annoying.

It's almost ALWAYS a long-press on the Menu button. Most people probably don't notice it since a long-press on the Menu button doesn't do anything...

But in Tapatalk and Dolphin Browser it brings up the keyboard. I have an application mapped to menu-long-press... My Google Authenticator pops up all on it's open 6-12 times a day.

An annoying bug, but really about the only one left with the rom itself, and I think it's related to BLN.
[Fascinate Android Development] plantroller:
As long as you typed in SU first then enter. Then type the command. The wake lock should be the last couple lines.

[Fascinate Android Development] drnihili:
Just spontaneously booted into safe mode. Any clues where to look for a possible cause?
[Fascinate Android Development] AlexDeGruven:
That means you're not getting a wake-lock condition, which is a good thing. If you're still getting heavy battery drain, it's time to start looking at usage patterns and possibly battery health.
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
Correct, rom manager does not work for the Fascinate........except for on CM7 now that JT's build is being accepted into mainline rom manager is how we will get our nightlies if I understand it correctly.

Hands free speaker volume?

Is there a way to increase or raise the speaker volume? Or do I need to do something to fix that?

[Fascinate Android Development] chrisexv6:
"dumpsys power" (no quotes) is the complete command, it will only dump power usage data

If you had any wake locks youd see something like PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK and then whatever has the wake lock, after the mLocks.size line.
[Fascinate Android Development] RegnierD:
For people who are claiming to be doing the *228 sequences, I can't remember where I read this in a CM forum so I can't provide a link to the reading material (this was also back when I had my Incredible), but AFAIK, CM7 doesn't have the necessary parts in the firmware to access and change PRL files and the like through those menus. It's not built in to their software, which is why we have to add numbers to the end, and why it doesn't always work the first time.

If you need to update a PRL, there may be an app or computer program to help with that, but I'm almost positive that the necessary bits of code to perform those functions through the network provider's phone codes don't exist.

If someone who is more knowledgeable can either confirm or deny this information, please feel free to step in. In the mean time, I'll be checking various links to verify this information as well.

Edit: Alright, I just tried to update my PRL two different way, first by dialing *22899 and then by *228++ and dialing 2 when prompted. The first attempt killed my signal completely forcing me to reboot to regain network connectivity, while the second took some time, acted like it was working (recording spoke and music played), but none of the toast notifications (SPL Unlocked, etc) appeared like they should, the phone did not reboot on its own, and my PRL (52341, from the small town in which I activated the phone, New Albany, OH, not the big city in which I work, Downtown Columbus, OH) remained the same after said reboot. Also, when I had my Incredible, the app that controlled the PRL updating process was the EPST.apk and only existed in our Sense roms. I don't know if TouchWiz has this apk, so I'm in the process of downloading a TW rom to see if that apk exists in the system/app folder. I will report back again shortly.

Edit 2: So, after sifting through the system/app folder in a TW rom, I couldn't find an EPST.apk, but I did find a Phone-Util.apk, which is like the to be the apk that would control the PRLupdating/programming process. This apk only exists in a TW rom, thus, I would assum that if we wanted/needed to do a PRL update, we would need to either revert to a TW rom (which is a pain because of these MTD builds) or find a way to manually update the PRL via a computer push or an app that would place a stored PRL file on the SD-card to its proper place within the phone.

Edit 3: Link to reasoning behind lack of PRL updating in CM7 for the HTC Droid Incredible.

Hope this can provide some help/insight for PRL updates.
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
Do "nightlies" fix things or simply modify existing roms? Do they actually work out bugs?

Nightlies are new to me.
[Fascinate Android Development] sfobrien:
Thanks for the info Shark, I will have to defrost it in TB. Froze it, didn't realize it worked with CM7.
[Fascinate Android Development] xceebeex:
So what does it mean if I have a partial wake lock and a poke lock? After it says partial wake lock I think it said something like *sync*or something like that.
[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
I was getting the same thing on Comm Rom 2.1 so its not a issue specific to CM7.
[Fascinate Android Development] chrisexv6:
Poke locks I thought were related to phone stuff (ignore cheek events, etc)

Partial wake lock and sync might just have been a timing thing......if you are syncing accounts it will happen at specified intervals (or whenever a new mail/message is pushed if you have ti set that way) so that lock should go away after a minute or two. Rerun dumpsys power a minute or two later and chances are its gone.

The only wake lock Ive ever seen get stuck is GPS. Easiest way to get rid of that is open and then close Google Maps. Note I havent seen that on this ROM as of yet, it happened on almost every boot/reboot on any Froyo ROM I ran.
[Fascinate Android Development] wideopn11:
I was trying to find out more about this in the Q&A section. From what I understand so far, ROM Manager will work with CM7 but just not yet. We probably have to wait until our fascinate is fully up on cyanogen's site. Please correct me if I am mistaken, I'm still waiting for a dev to weigh in with some details before I start experimenting.
[Fascinate Android Development] Coolsaber57:
Loving this ROM, it's not perfect, but wow it's fast.

Yeah, volume all around needs to be increased, as well as Mic volume.

Hey, not sure if you got an answer to this, but you may need to reformat your SD card or use another one just to flash the ROM. I had the same problem and ended up using a spare SD Card to get me past this.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
For what it's worth, nemesis2all's latest test 1600mhz otb kernel seems to have helped the volume issues a little bit for me. I'd still like it a little louder, though, lol.

[Fascinate Android Development] neyenlives:
CM7 and MIUI are two very different roms.
[Fascinate Android Development] streebs87:
Ok thanks. Thought I read somewhere that cm7 and MIUI are similar in that sense.
[Fascinate Android Development] kidserious:
yes, more or less. But, this is a new endeavor for the galaxy s CM guys because they are more accustomed to working on gsm phones (i.e. vibrant, captivate and original galaxy s) rather than cdma phones such as verizon and sprint carry (fascinate and epic) It will be teamhacksung now working with jt officially to further development on the fascinate.....CM is officially adopting us into their family so development will carry right on into CM8 ICS and the entire lifespan of the fascinate. The fascinate will NEVER see ICS officially imo, but it will see it with CM. :)

Should I flash with a different recovery or what?

EDIT: Yes I did all of the proper wipes.

EDITx2: Tried again, but just tried 7/4 first and I wiped everything like literally 5 times. It installed fine, rebooted to recovery, installed 7/13, it works.

Almost!

I tried SOO hard to keep this rom. I love how clean everything is. I even played a few games with my wii controller (thanks to the hid in AOSP BT stack). Netflix was working awesome. The only thing is the phone wouldn't work.

- I have to press power when ending a phone call to turn on the screen

- The incall volume is just terrible. I tried volume control plus=no joy. I tried Galaxy tuner, but didn't recognize my phone as a galaxy s phone (thinking they using AOSP+i9000 Nexus S). This alone was a deal breaker. If I can't hear the person on the other end, then its not really a phone any longer.

- I missed several calls through out the day. Most of the time it was just a notification from GV that I had a msg, and no notification of a missed call in the call log. I could easily call the person back, but missing calls is another deal breaker, as this is first a phone and then a toy.

- While using car dock I removed the phone and answered the call and the ringing kept occurring (only on my end). I had to hang up and call back

- Navigation is slower, the screen jumps on updates, not smooth as in other roms (maybe just a google thing).

- Took me 6 tries to get BT to work. Eventually I put the phone in discovery mode and reset my BT headset and it finally connected.

- Everything seems to run slower. I don't like ADW Launcher so I used Launcher Pro, but going from task to task seem like it was happening in slow mo.

- The camera software while awesome in its own right, is not as good as the TouchWiz camera software IMO. (Yes I realize this cannot be added, I could always use camera 360 pro)

- The Wifi sharing didn't allow for a connection, from multiple devices. They all connected and received an IP from DHCP, but no traffic to/from 3G side.

- Occasionally lost 3G conection. The bars would stay green, but no connection. (Could be my phone/environment, but never happened on COMROM)

- I miss the tap+hold+recent apps/task manager

- I miss % battery reading

All in all this is a GREAT test rom. Please don't miss understand my post. I want to love GB, but the issues above pushed me back to comrom. This is only my experience and I never would have known if I didn't try it out. When the volume/missed calls issue is resolved I'll be right back on the GB train. If there is ANYTHING I can do to help please let me know I have a several backups so I can easily jump back and forth.
