what kernel are you using? I came from community rom 2.1 and installed 7/4 rom so using rom packaged kernel. I am on EC09 radio.. not sure if that would make any difference but my in-call audio is very low. I can barely hear anything while I am outside.
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
I've talked indoors and outdoors with no problem. Even near my AC unit while running outside.
[Fascinate Android Development] joshriccio:
I wanted to check out the game Backstab HD, which lists the i500 as a compatible phone. But when installed it says incompatible. What in the build.prop would make it think that?
[Fascinate Android Development] beenz:
It's awesome that you can't bring your phone into work, but are able to get on XDA, lol
[Fascinate Android Development] vai1018:
Cameras on phones are a no-no in some places. Just sayin'.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Running MIUI 1.7.1.3 here, no call-audio issues, but a niggling ringtone/notification volume issue that is driving me nuts. I need to find a way to boost the gain for those....big time. Can barely here 'em at full volume.
[Fascinate Android Development] ChrisDDD:
Forget my previous post about the battery drain, I've been off the charger for about 8 hours now and I'm still at 82%. This is awesome.

So I searched the thread and couldn't find any specific mention - am I correct in assuming Verizon can't directly track tethering on this? I have the occasional need to tether my Nook Color (also on CM7) and certainly don't want Verizon to bang me for the tethering charge just to use it 3 or 4 times.
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
Odd, try uninstalling Gmail and reinstalling. May need to reflash gapps/rom unfortunately.
[Fascinate Android Development] ChrisDDD:
Just got a call and the volume was fine, almost too loud in fact. So yea, no problems here.
[Fascinate Android Development] cesium:
Well this is odd. I just got a phone call, and the ringtone is not what I have it set to. After accepting the call, the ringing continued and it never connected to the person (despite it saying so). Any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
Regarding battery life, i fully charged and took the phone off the charger. With under volt of -25 on 800-100 mhz CFQ and smartass and only loss 6% of battery in 8 hours while I slept.
[Fascinate Android Development] lane32x:
This happened to me around noon today. First of all, i had my phone set to silent, second it was not the ringtone I had selected. It sounded like an old-school phone with bells in it, ringing very softly.

After I picked up the phone, my friend was on the other end and he was able to hear me, but he was also able to hear the ringing. I told him I'd call him right back.

Haven't had a whole lot of calls since then to make sure it won't do it again.
[Fascinate Android Development] cesium:
Yep that is exactly what it was. The person on the other end didn't seem to be able to hear me for whatever reason, but I had successfully made outgoing calls earlier in the day.
[Fascinate Android Development] kendall316:
also is anyone else getting random reboots with the new july version? my phone is rebooting once every hour or so
[Fascinate Android Development] gotsflat4love:
It's a phantom ring that has been with the CM builds and the fascinate.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
Wow, where do you work??

I'm in a defense contractor facility and I'm allowed to have my camera phone. FSM help me if I ever take a pic with it here, tho. ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] vai1018:
Where I work, it's fine, but we've had a couple of clients over the years that won't allow cameras or phones equipped with them in certain areas of their facilities. One was involved in the manufacturing of extremely high tech laser devices, and for the moment I'm forgetting who the other major one was.
[Fascinate Android Development] cesium:
I thought the phantom ring only occurs when you miss a call in deep sleep :confused:
[Fascinate Android Development] jbarcus81:
Im not allowed to have mine out at work because of the access to credit cards and centrall billing accounts.. A lot of money being charged where I work.. on business travel expenses.. GREAT ROM!
[Fascinate Android Development] kwinders:
I had the same thing yesterday, I was hoping the phantom ring was fixed with the deep sleep issue but I guess not.

I also had the same issue on previous releases, just have to tell the person on the other end that I'll call back.

I'm sure jt will get it fixed, small price to pay for such awesomeness. :-)
[Fascinate Android Development] Hilbe:
Anyone else have issues with the waiting on sd card? I tried every method and still ended up going back to Community Rom 2.1 PBJ.
[Fascinate Android Development] greyhawk555:
Hello!

Can you help me enable usb-dm mode in this rom?

In original firmware it was possible with code **87284 or with test-mode menu - 47*68#13580 - 052 item.

In this Rom codes don't work.

Thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] kendall316:
does it say waiting for the sd card to mount?
[Fascinate Android Development] Hilbe:
Yes. Tried wiping cache, dalvik, data, etc. ODIN'd on EB01, ED03, etc. and still couldn't get it to mount/install.
[Fascinate Android Development] bleeeeeeek:
Uninstall/reinstall worked 2nd time..
[Fascinate Android Development] lane32x:
Do you guys know if there is any way for us to get back the Samsung Dialer that came with our phones?

I'm really missing the ability to have Speed Dial. More importantly I'm missing the ability to type a person's name via the Dial Pad and have it auto-search my contacts.

I was using TouchPal's Dialer, but when I miss a call, TouchPal doesn't make the drop-down notification disappear (so that gets old really quick, constantly seeing a notification for missed calls when I already know that I missed them).
[Fascinate Android Development] greyhawk555:
Help me, please!

How can i programming Nam?

Any working codes for it?

Or how enable connection with QPST?
[Fascinate Android Development] cesium:
Yeah the lack of that feature is perplexing and annoying :(
[Fascinate Android Development] gotsflat4love:
Not sure if you are familiar with CM builds, but they are based off aosp. So they are stock to the bone with some extra tweaks. They don't include all the extra stuff becuase it is a drain on the system.

Try gocontacts. They have have the auto search built in.
[Fascinate Android Development] kendall316:
i had the same problem with trying to flash this or any of the miui roms. asked for about 3 weeks and no one could help me./ finally last night while it was doing the countdown i took the sd card out and pushed the bracket that holds it in a little bit. then put the sd card in, it fit more snug. went through one more countdown then started to flash. I cheered and drank a beer after that moment, lol.
[Fascinate Android Development] JoeProcopio:
how did you get it working? i;'m in hell with this now, odin'd all the way back, reinstalled everything, installed EC09 modem....was ED04, still nothing...rom is great otherwise, but i need wifi to work
[Fascinate Android Development] GoogleAndroid:
The new build is great. My battery life is now amazing since the phone can sleep, and it woke right up for a call after being asleep for an hour and it's been waking for texts recently. No phantom ringer either.
[Fascinate Android Development] bespinct:
Nope. Like you I've only used TSM and these CM7 ROMs. I've now had the problem on a second card that has had no problem on my DInc.

Looks like Best Buy will help me out with a new card, but I'm hesitant to make them give me a new if it will just fail again. Does anyone know if there would be any log that might show the activity at failure? Both of the last two failures occurred without a reboot.

[Fascinate Android Development] m0r0n3s:
Congratulations to JT for doing what verizon/samsung couldn't do for so long. I'm on my 3rd replacement phone and still having issues with missed calls due to the deep sleep bug. I can't wait to get home this weekend so I can flash this ROM immediately. I was preparing myself to go have a friendly discussion with the manager of my nearest Verizon store, but I’ll save myself some time and stress ;-)
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
Is there a way to overclock?

Found it
[Fascinate Android Development] JohnKuczek:
You might want to try DialerOne. It has a setting for the notifications and also does the other things you mentioned.
[Fascinate Android Development] dricacho:
I'm pretty sure you can with the OTB 2.6.35 0704 kernel. I've never tried it since my Fascinate doesn't really like to be overclocked. Mine becomes unstable after a while and it only seems faster in the beginning after a reboot. After staying on for a few days, it starts to lag badly, not sure why. I do use my Fascinate as an mp3 music player hooked up to my car stereo and listen to it mostly during my work commutes. My device would lag badly after when I try to text someone or go on the web browser.
[Fascinate Android Development] Bubbadogg14:
Use nemesis2all's OTB kernel... I like the 7/4 CFS .13 kernel w OC to 1300... phone is way snappy n not that it means much but it has a very nice quadrant score
[Fascinate Android Development] glenniosaurus:
do i need to flash the first version of the rom and then patch it with the newest one? or can i install the latest version as the full rom?
[Fascinate Android Development] gotsflat4love:
So I have been running CM7 7/4 with out many hiccups. Only weird issue is when I charge the phone it will jump from 96% to 100%. When I unplugg let the screen turn on it goes down to 96%. I wiped batt states multiple times to try and fix.

Any insight?
[Fascinate Android Development] ChrisDDD:
No need to start with the first version, just flash this and you should be good to go.
[Fascinate Android Development] happynoodleboyx:
I'm having trouble downloading/updating new apps, I tried wiping the cache/data and that didn't help at all..
[Fascinate Android Development] garywojdan81:
An easy workaround if you are using the adw launcher that came with the rom is to pull out your favorite contacts as direct dial shortcuts to the homescreen then create a folder on the homescreen & put your direct dial shortcuts in it. You can name it whatever you want & when its done it kinda looks like the HTC contacts widget when its open. Also works with launcherpro.
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
what kind of trouble are you having?
[Fascinate Android Development] happynoodleboyx:
I click update on any app, it says "your item will be downloaded" and it tries to download for a couple of seconds, then I get an error "Download was unsuccessful, please try again"
[Fascinate Android Development] lane32x:
Yeah, I figured that that was a stock "feature." That's why I was hoping I could find a better dialer to replace this. bleh.
[Fascinate Android Development] SOTK:
I have noticed the same. I used the Power Control widget and turn off auto brightness when I'm out in the sun. Turning it off just sets it to max brightness. When I'm out of the sun and indoors, I turn auto back on. That's my method unless somebody has something better.
[Fascinate Android Development] SOTK:
Chris, what are you doing to get that battery performance? Mine isn't that good. I don't know if it's something I've set up wrong with voltage control or what. Any tips or suggestions would be awesome!
[Fascinate Android Development] glenniosaurus:
ok when i go to flash the latest cm7 over the original rom., it gets stuck in a loop and never boots what am i doing wrong :[
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
have you tried perhaps wiping cache and re-installing gapps?
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
did you wipe data?
[Fascinate Android Development] glenniosaurus:
here are the steps im taking from the original build.

1. rom manager/reboot into recovery

2. wipe data/factory reset

3. install latest cm7 patch

4. loops and doesn't install.
[Fascinate Android Development] Headcase8911:
why are you using rom manager? use the orange recovery, wipe wipe wipe, flash rom, gapps
[Fascinate Android Development] mattstakilla:
I work at a jail where everything has to be inventoried, so they don't let workers bring in alot of stuff. But yet xda isn't blocked on the comp. Woo hoohoo
[Fascinate Android Development] ChrisDDD:
Not doing anything special I don't think. After installing the rom, I charged the battery to 100%, rebooted into CWM and cleared battery stats. On the rom itself, I'm using the included kernel, not overclocking or undervolting, tinkering with those things always seems to cause me more problems than they solve.

I seem to be getting about 3% per hour battery drain with average use - couple of phone calls, few texts and checking e-mail periodically. Haven't played with it extensively, so I'm sure the battery drain would be a bit higher with more active use. With previous roms, I always found you needed to give it a few charge cycles to get the maximum life out of the battery.
[Fascinate Android Development] iAMBlind:
I posted this in the wrong ROM thread earlier. So, lets try this again.

So far this has been a nearly flawless build for me. I haven't been happier. I finally ran into a small snag. I rebooted my phone earlier and all the aftermarket widgets I was using wouldn't load including the analog clock that came stock. I battery pulled and the clock appeared the the after market widgets wouldnt load. I was able to rebuild my set up, no problem.

Just curious about this.
[Fascinate Android Development] AlexDeGruven:
My first full day on this build and I got 22 hours out of it before I plugged in, which was at 8%. Probably could have made it 24, but I need it to be charged since I"m on call this week.

Can't ask for much better out of a non-iOS smartphone, that's for sure.
[Fascinate Android Development] mefloump:
What is the best way to go back to the kernel included with this rom? I guessing to reflash the rom, but this is my first go around with cm7. I had awesome battery life yesterday, but wanted to see how nem's kernel performed. It's fast but smokes through battery.
[Fascinate Android Development] bobthesalesclerk:
I'm actually getting kind of "poor" battery life with this rom. I have been unplugged for 14 hours with 20% battery left using juice defender and screen on full brightness...problem is I am on an extended battery. I used tto be able to get 30+ out of it. Not complaining at all but battery has been nowhere near what I used to get. I can still get a solid 16-18 hours out of it though so I'm happy :)

Can anyone tell me where I can get CM7 themes? I've seen themed for Vanilla AOSP, but nothing specific to CM7.
[Fascinate Android Development] adambobbyburgers:
Which kernel are you using?
[Fascinate Android Development] mikey6p:
Installed today. GoMMS is a great workaround for lack of MMS, and the only people who send me pictures already use it.

Loving this rom so far! Fast! Goodbye TouchJizz!
[Fascinate Android Development] garywojdan81:
Just did this very thing because of battery life & some weird lag issues on the .13 otb kernel. You are right, reflash the rom.
[Fascinate Android Development] upsidedownaaron:
pulled the trigger on this app yesterday. not sure what i have been waiting for. this rom wins. for sure.

only issues is that occasionally when the phone rings, the gingerbread keyboard comes up so i cannot answer. no answer buttons are available. i haven't gone through a real batt stats clearing cycle yet, but so far about 6% use per hour. i used to get 12% with com rom. and pretty much every other rom i have tried. my batt life has always been terrible.
[Fascinate Android Development] akaine2001:
Don't expect it to have full charge over night... It drops to 96 and goes back up , over and over... I usually set mine on the charger 2 hours before I get up, then it has a little to go by the time I get up maybe 2 % drop from 100. Or just charge it and when it gets to 100 take it off. These phones don't hold at 100%...
[Fascinate Android Development] pc1990:
Uh what's the correct way to flash this rom? I too wanted to go back to Jt's included kernel instead of nemesis2all's kernel and tried to reflash and keep getting "assert failure." Is there a specific recovery we have to use?

EDIT: IM AN IDIOT! Found it LOL!
[Fascinate Android Development] bigwilly90210:
I've run into that too actually. Wasn't just on this ROM though, I believe. Was also happening on ComRom. Idk what's up. Loving this thing though. First real all day performer. Still blowing my mind with speed some 20+ hours later at 30% battery. That is what really makes this ROM so awesome! Can't give enough love to the devs that do all this work for free. Only interesting thing: using the .7 kernel with this the flash only works when taking a picture. Idk if its the kernel or the ROM. just curious.
[Fascinate Android Development] iAMBlind:
you couldnt have said it better. amazing work, very happy with results. battery life is amazing to me. I'd like to think I'm a higher than average user. Consistent texting browsing, rebuild screens lol.
[Fascinate Android Development] harpdoc:
Its anyone else getting force closes running browsers? Stock one won't even open. Xscope working most of the time but still some f.c. I wiped everything, tried both kernels, and even reinstalled the rom.
[Fascinate Android Development] PeterGunz:
But I thought the OTB kernel was needed to fix the deep sleep issue....?

I want to try the stock kernel if you don't need the OTB (even though it is great, I just want to flash flash flash).

Also, can the kernel be extracted from the rom?
[Fascinate Android Development] tk1o48:
can I reflash this rom with orange cwm4? Noticed some laggy functions and think a reflash after a full wipe will clear some things up. Will reflashing the rom reflash the stock kernal? Thanks for any input!
[Fascinate Android Development] kwinders:
It's included kernel has the deep sleep fix in it.

I have tried both, I personally prefer the bundled kernel, maybe cause I don't know how to properly tune the otb kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] PeterGunz:
Anybody know where the kernel is located in the rom package? If it's possible.
[Fascinate Android Development] bhfd64:
kernel_update I believe. The ROMs that don't include kernel don't have that folder.
[Fascinate Android Development] ezas:
I am using the OTB kernel and just used the suggestions in the first few posts with regards to voltage settings. They are pretty mild and stability has been good. No blackout, no lockup, no spontaneous reboots.

I'm using CFQ and Conservative governor and only a 1200 OC which almost never gets used anyway. OTB kernel is not that tricky to use unless you really want to tweak it. But of course every phone is different.
[Fascinate Android Development] iifuzz:
Whenever I call someone, the proximity sensor works ok for a little bit, then after a short while the phone turns off and I gotta use the power button to get it back on during the phone call any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
I'm thinking that the random hang-ups and lock-ups are from BFQ and the reason why the included kernel doesn't have these problems is that it is running on CFQ. :O
[Fascinate Android Development] fibofan:
cm7

I flashed this Rom over Comm Rom 2.0 but with the latest modem and I have to say it is finally running like the Galaxy S should be. Awesome! It's fast, smooth, and the only problems have been the occasional stutter in Gmail... Couldn't be happier.

Thanks so Much!!

I guess MMS doesn't work but I don't really care about that.

Yep, SC, Com Rom, EF, my battery life was dreadful on all of them and I would have freezes and SOD on all of them too. I've removed apps, had my phone replaced and every time its the same issues. Been on CM7 for 2 days now and love it. Still figuring out everything but so far I love it. Yesterday I went 14 hours when I plugged it in and still had 15% with what I think is moderate to heavy usage at times. Playing music for about 6 hours, emails, IMs, and about an hours worth of calls. Add in screwing around with settings off and on all day too I'm ecstatic with the performance and battery life.

Im running Sio/Smartass with a low end of 200mhz and topped out at 1400mhz.

Its so fast i sometimes click the wrong icons lol.

Battery is definitely ****ty and im on a extended battery.

Its been off the charger for 3 hours and im at 70% :O

I was streaming tunes and futzing around with it a bit.

Id love battery to be better but if its at the sake of speed, then i dont mind charging at work lol.
[Fascinate Android Development] AlexDeGruven:
You answered your own questions. You're running the least power-efficient governor settings and over-clocking 40%.

I'm surprised your battery is only that bad.
[Fascinate Android Development] harpdoc:
Yes, I'm using the Verizon car dock and having it running into my car stereo via 3.5mm cable. I'm not sure I understand your technique. Does this mean that you keep the dock open and manually plug in the audio cable into the phone itself? If so, that means the phone is not charging (unless you also manually plug in the charging cable to the phone). If this is the solution, it's inelegant to say the least. I hope I'm misunderstanding--can you please clarify? :confused:

[Fascinate Android Development] JoeProcopio:
must have missed it, but when the screen gets turned off, my menu buttons turn off, then turn back on after a sec, is this normal, or not?

Is 200mhz recommended for the low end on this OTB like it was on the TW one? I'm running 100 as my low and it has been fine so far.
[Fascinate Android Development] ivorycruncher:
I too am wondering about this. I have the official car dock that connects via USB on the phone, and to my car stereo via AUX In. I was almost ready to finally jump on the CM7 bandwagon, but I need the car dock to work. FWIW, there is no room to plug in an audio cable to the phone while it's mounted in this dock, even if the USB portion is unplugged, so that's not an option. I do know that Kaos supposedly got the official docks working on his CM7 build, so hopefully jt can work with him on that, if it's an issue.

One question...

I seem to have lost the long press back button that kills the foreground app, which was intact up to the July 1 update. I really liked this feature as some apps do hang-up and won't force close, ie- words with friends.

So... my question... did I break something or was this actually removed?

thx
