[Fascinate Android Development] CHANGiism:
My capacitive buttons are working perfectly.. knock on wood

The camera flash works properly if you get libcamera.so (or was it cameralib.so.. cameraso.lib?? LOL) from EC09 and push it to system/lib. EC09 is public so I don't know why it's a problem to get it out to people.
[Fascinate Android Development] HardcorePooka:
I hope they keep working for ya. *crosses fingers*

I was unaware of that.... I'm guessing that's what this fix is... but in flashable zip form. And I don't wanna blow up the persons dropbox. (And it's libcamera.so)
[Fascinate Android Development] AuroEdge:
My Fascinate will randomly crash when listening to music or watching videos. It might be related to streaming. Known issue or fixes?
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
No offense but that sounds ridiculous to me. More processing power has nothing to do with the accuracy of clock. If that's the case, a lot of people with slower phone would have a lot of problem.
[Fascinate Android Development] iofthestorm:
Well, if it uses the cpu clock to determine the time it could make things less accurate and then the errors could accumulate, but in general this doesn't make a whole lot of sense because I usually keep data off and my clock stays synced.
[Fascinate Android Development] D_Steve595:
There's no such thing as a CPU "clock", it's just a term used to represent the frequency at which a CPU performs instructions. It has to do with time, but nothing with AM/PM or hours.
[Fascinate Android Development] iofthestorm:
Err, yes there is, in any type of synchronous circuit. You're talking to an electrical engineer, lol. I didn't mean a clock like a wall clock...

But I don't think they would use the main clock generator to track time, but I've never really thought about those things.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
I've definitely seen dumber things done, especially in embedded hardware. But anyway, it is entirely possible that oc had nothing to do with it. However, the symptom remains: these things make way better phones than they do clocks....especially if they can't sync with an ntp server every so often.

Edit: ok, SOME of these things, etc.
[Fascinate Android Development] probbiethe1:
are there any tips on how to get gps to lock on?
[Fascinate Android Development] iofthestorm:
There's always a chance, however small, that the OC cause errors in certain paths of the hardware that happen to be used in time synchronization code. I agree, I remember I think for most of the froyo leaks the clocks stopped syncing and I would lose on the order of fifteen minutes overnight.
[Fascinate Android Development] mirrinigma:
Has anyone found a solution to most movies not properly playing, and Youtube erroring? Also, I believe that this ROM cleared all of the non-title tags off of all of my music, but I've yet to try a different ROM- I know they don't show up here.

Players like Rockplayer and Mobo Player using software decoding hang after a few seconds, even with voltage turned up and no overclock.

I've had these and phantom ringer (for some reason Softlocker won't stay on) plus a lot of complaints about volume. I'll come back with more information about some things after I've tried the latest OTB kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] mkarps:
Your the man!
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Sweet. Just two issues to go? Makes me want to rethink dumping VZW...
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
I flashed the 07/01 over the last update and got a bootloop??!
[Fascinate Android Development] thewaytolite:
same here sorta bites my phone but its all good if it fixes quick
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
Probably need to wipe data then
[Fascinate Android Development] Dread This Day:
Same. ****.
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
Went back to comm rom lol, might come back later!
[Fascinate Android Development] Dread This Day:
Now my sd card will not mount in CWM. Great.
[Fascinate Android Development] D_Steve595:
Bootloop for me too. How can I get data off of /data so I can wipe?
[Fascinate Android Development] Dread This Day:
Dude, I've even Odin'ed four times, still ****ed. This is jacked up.
[Fascinate Android Development] D_Steve595:
Your name fits.
[Fascinate Android Development] jt1134:
Folks would do well to wipe dalvik cache at the very least in between builds. If things in the framework get changed upstream, things can break if you have a stale cache.

That said, the rom itself is fine, as I'm posting from it right now ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] D_Steve595:
I purposely did a dalvik AND cache wipe before and after I installed. :(
[Fascinate Android Development] Dread This Day:
I cannot speak for everyone, but I did wipe, and ALWAYS wipe when flashing. So I do not know.
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
i wiped all 3, and am also stuck in a boot loop. something is definitely up. idk if this means anything but something in rom manager pops up a bunch of lines flash and it loops.
[Fascinate Android Development] InPocket:
If it helps anyone..

I used terminal emulator to enter the recovery then wiped davlik and normal cache before installing. Everything is working as noted in the first post (I even have the camera flash again).
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
i think i got it to install i used to 3 button(i know that is a no no but it was the only way without odin'ing) and i flashed the 7/1 build. (after wiping) it is now booting. i have not tried to install gapps, as i did the first time. i'm going to try and flash gapps now and report back to see if maybe it's the gapps not playing nice

EDIT: i got it working now. i don't know if my was necessary but that way worked for me.

just a reminder i did wipe all 3 using CWR 4.x and i got a boot loop just like everyone else. the only way i could get the phone to function was to use the 3 button method to get to the old recovery installed on my phone. i then wiped all 3 again and flashed the 7/1 build. reboot(with sucess!) then used the regular "reboot recovery" option (not the 3 button) and flashed gapps. and now EVERYTHING works! i don't what happened or why my way worked, i am just reporting :)
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
Exactly same, worked fine until I flashed this rom and nemesis's new kernel. Getting boot loops at the moment. I'm so pissed cause I have to set my stuff all over again.
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
Thank you, using the old CWM with 3button entry works! Thank god I don't have to re-setup everything after the fresh install.
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
Ok my phone boots and but its screen became unresponsive. damn

update: Reflashed Nemesis's kernel in the old CWM(3button) Now the phone works.

update 2: For those of you who doesn't know, if you flash this, this will wipe your rom. You won't be able to hold any of your data.
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
lol no problem at least my ****ed up way of flashing it worked for someone other than me
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
Actually this is same as odining, I have to spend around an hour to setup my phone again.
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
well every time you wipe your data ..it does just that. it's better than having to put your phone in download mode, reverting back to stock, re-rooting, flashing a new CWR and then having to to the process all over again :p
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
Actually I didn't wipe data or cache. I only wiped Dalvik Cache. I guess CM is different than TW. This is very strange because I've followed CM from Cyannogen himself with HTC Magic and this never happened back then.
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
Oh I always wipe all three so I'm used to having to restore my apps. This way I know I'm getting a "fresh" install

EDIT: the flash works! But the app I used to use as a light (telsa led) doesn't work. Anyone know of an app that'll make the led work?
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
Try stock flash light. CM has it in its notification button config.
[Fascinate Android Development] tmlhodge:
can someone confirm the stock cm7 flashlight functions? not just camera flash..flashlight
[Fascinate Android Development] renf:
Don't think the cm7 torch app works or will work any time soon. It would require a lot of work on jt's part and it's definitely not a priority. I would try some of the other flashlight apps on the market but if those don't work, you're probably out of luck for the time being.
[Fascinate Android Development] tmlhodge:
thanks renf...but "dont think" does not confirm it..............
[Fascinate Android Development] SOTK:
So, if I have this right, the way to install the newest Rom is to use old CWR (three button), wipe everything, and install?
[Fascinate Android Development] mirrinigma:
Anyone else unable to add new sync accounts? I have many of my contacts via my Facebook account, and I'm unable to add it to my sync accounts.

This ROM also lacks Verizon Wireless Backup Assistant, and I know that many people don't care for it, but I like it because it goes between my phones no matter what I use, as long as it's Verizon- please don't tell me that syncing my contacts to Google is better, understand that it is a matter of "to each their own". Google's contact sync is not perfect, and on top of that I like redundancy in this sort of matter to make sure everything is working perfectly. If anyone knows how I can install this with a .zip in CWM or an APK please let me know by PM, I don't want to clutter the thread with derailed nonsense.

On top of these, I'm STILL unable to play any non-baseline H264 videos with hardware acceleration and Youtube videos like to crash in the middle of play. Music does not read artist tags properly, no matter the application I use. It's been 3 builds of this- I have yet to see anyone else have this problem, is it just me?

Also getting calls that will just plain not ring, no phantom ringer, not getting through, but they ring all the way through until voicemail for the person calling.

The video thing has me a little bit off, I read in the OP that "all video codecs are working", but videos that work on stock in mvideoplayer will not play.
[Fascinate Android Development] Chuban7:
Does anyone notice better outgoing call volume with this over MIUI?

Sent from my MIUI Fascinate
[Fascinate Android Development] tmlhodge:
yes .
[Fascinate Android Development] anaphora68:
No offense, but you're complaining about Backup Assistant not being in Cyanogen. Backup Assistant is a Verizon only feature. CM and CM7 are a completely stock experience. Hence, no backup assistant.

If you don't keep your contacts with Google, there is almost no point to you using Cyanogen Mod.
[Fascinate Android Development] glsteve:
By the way u know u can import and export your contacts to and from your SD card.
[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
Keep up the great work man. All went well here following my normal installation process of wiping data/cache/dalvik/voltage and then flashing rom and kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] iifuzz:
i am trying to flash and i got an error saying

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "aries" || yada yada yada. lots of stuff..... any ideas? this is first time i flash cm7

i am using the latest cwm red for non voodoo or vodooo

i started by doing a full odin for ed01 with the pit and re-partition checked
[Fascinate Android Development] mirrinigma:
I was not complaining, I was asking if there's a way to install it. I have used search and google and nothing I have found works.

Please don't be so presumptuous about my message, my post other than that paragraph was intended to be constructive, it was a question, not a criticism.

There is a point in using CM7 even if I don't want just one source of contacts backup. It is extremely smooth and fast. Unfortunately right more the majority of my contacts are on backup assistant. I'll just flash another rom, retrieve the contacts, save them in a few extra ways and switch back. I was just looking for a less clunky way, but if all I'm going to get is criticism for an innocent question I'll just keep to myself from now on.

edit: and it turned in to derailed nonsense just like I was trying to avoid.

jt I love the ROM, and I am trying to provide constructive feedback with my posts for the most part, I apologize for causing this derail.

edit2:

Regarding backing up contacts to my SD card, I do not see , nor have I found (admittedly, haven't look very hard other than through every menu in settings and some google) any way to automatically sync my contacts to SD. This automatic redundancy is one of the reasons I enjoy backup manager, but I'll figure the rest of this without posting anything more.
[Fascinate Android Development] nemesis2all:
Follow the instructions in this post for removing asserts http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14312750&postcount=1 or you can find a build that already has asserts removed and flash that first, then flash this.
[Fascinate Android Development] iifuzz:
thank you :)

I have lost su access in terminal emulator on test build 5. All other programs that require su work fine, just not terminal emulator. Any ideas??

Call audio

Can anyone report whether the incall mic volume issue has really been fixed?

:)

Thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] tnez:
Go to contacts-press menu-import/export-select export to sd card
[Fascinate Android Development] mirrinigma:
That's manual. I was looking for it to automatically do it every night. I knew about that option. My post did say auto sync... If anyone wants to continue this with me please bring it in to private messages out of courtesy for JT's thread, I implore you.

Note I know that I can auto sync with Google. I want redundancy, and that entails some sort of help getting VZ Backup assistant installed on this rom, or another way that auto-syncs. I'm lazy. I enjoy a single Verizon application from stock... I don't understand why that's wrong and I should switch to something else primarily.

I am not asking JT to include it in his rom, I'm just looking to install it on my handset.

PMs from now on, please /redundant
[Fascinate Android Development] kuronosan:
This is what I did. I went into contacts and exported my contacts to SD. Then, when I re-imported them, I clicked on "Sync to Google". I too had issues with Verizon backup assistant and frankly I hated using it. After switching to Google, I have had no further issues and I only use the SD backup as a last resort.

There is no need to flame or get angry or ask for features to be put in (I know, trust me) without at least trying to find a way around it. This is that way.

To recap:

1) Back up your contacts to SD by clicking Menu, Clicking Export, and saving to your SD.

2) Re-import your contacts by the same process but instead clicking Import.

3) When you click Import, it will/should give you the option to select whether you want to restore them to the phone or sync them with your Google account. Select your Google account.

4) It will take a bit, but all of your contacts will now be backed up to Google instead of Verizon's servers. You can back up your apps, calendar info, and miscellaneous data the same way. It will also sync this AUTOMATICALLY upon signing in to your Google account without having to constantly set up your SD or mess with. Your problem is now solved.

Edit: Also, I understand you want redundancy. Verizon doesn't back your contacts up to SD every 5 seconds and your contacts that are automatically synced to Google's servers are secure and you are free to get them every time. There is a backup assistant APK you can install if you absolutely have to have it but honestly it is not worth it. Also, I know you wanted people to PM you. Just thought you should have yet another person reiterate what you are not willing to accept.
[Fascinate Android Development] Bubbadogg14:
Man jt u would put out a new build after i got test 5 set up all nice n put a nice theme on it yesterday. Is test build 6 worth redoin everything since it seems a data wipe is imminent w this build....test 5 is runnin awesome for me w nemesis's 7/1 kernel... only downside besides the phantom ringer n GPS I've found is that my phone tested positive for HGH n other illegal steroids :0 hah
[Fascinate Android Development] mirrinigma:
I know I can do that... has anyone been reading my posts? I don't want to sync to google alone. I want to sync to BOTH. I do not want to sync to Google and then manually back up to my SD card every time I create a new contact because I am lazy. I -LIKE- Backup Assistant! Is that so unbelievable? I want to use Backup Assistant AND Google Contact sync. Is it impossible on CM7? Yes or no? If no, how do I go about adding it to my Fascinate?

I am pretty tired of this, this is my last post about this. This time, for real. I'm just going to flash back to another ROM and backup my contacts manually, bring then back on this ROM and suck it up having to backup manually, unless I can get a PM (A PM!!) about how to fix this. This has been going on for far too long. I said in my first post... I like backup assistant. It is a matter of "to each their own". Please, if you are going to tell me to just switch to Google contacts as my sole service, don't bother posting or PMing me because I KNEW HOW TO DO THAT FROM THE BEGINNING. I just want to use backup assistant too. It plays nicer between phones for me, and I may not have an Android OS phone as my next phone, if I put all of my eggs in one basket it'll be a pain.

On topic with the thread, since build 5, I don't know why, but my WiFi signal pickup is a bit worse than it was on 3 and 4.

I have yet to get a full out radio death but about every 5-15 min my radio will shut off for approximately 40 seconds.

Even with the fix inbuilds 6 I still get complaints about in call volume. I tried turning off everything in voodoo and DSM and it has not helped.

My ambient light sensor is also not playing nice. I cleared ALL data 3 times before flashing 6 over 5 and I haven't gotten a fix, using OTB 7/01/11 build.
[Fascinate Android Development] kuronosan:
Dude, I think you just need to calm down. There is no "fix" because it isn't broken. VZW's Backup Assistant doesn't support Fascinate's GB so there is no download link to it on the Market. I tried downloading it manually using their BackupAssistant.apk but it will not install because it says "Device not supported".

Quit acting like someone is blowing up your house.
[Fascinate Android Development] mirrinigma:
Okay, that's all I was asking from the beginning, thank you.

I'm not acting like someone is blowing up my house- I got a little bit impatient and I'm sorry for being so frank. I appreciate that you answered my question even though I was a bit rude.

I apologize again to jt for the give derail, but it's over now, so things should be fine.

I also tried the APK and it just said "Application not installed." - thanks for letting me know there is no fix, I guess I'll be spending quite a while retrieving the contacts that were on backup manager but not my Google account.

edit: and I still don't think you or anyone for that matter have properly comprehended my posts, because in my prior post I did not ask anything about a fix for Backup Assistant, just if it could be installed somehow. The word fix was in regard to the ambient light sensor's function. This is all beside the point though, the issue is resolved.

Have a good afternoon / day everyone.
[Fascinate Android Development] zim2704:
Does this new build address the issue of low earpiece volume, and I am not talking about the mic issue but rather me having a hard time hearing them.
[Fascinate Android Development] Bubbadogg14:
I never sync my contacts w anything they are always on my SD card... it's jus as easy as syncing them via back up assistant or Google I promise.... it is also a lot faster than one would think
[Fascinate Android Development] Dread This Day:
It is still a little low, but in my opinion, is definitely better with this build (build #6) and Nemesis's 701 kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] djk21108:
So I guess I'm to understand no one has gotten to this version from test 5 without a full wipe?
[Fascinate Android Development] kwinders:
I just wiped cache and dalvik and had no probleman

Only thing I can't figure out is getting threw flash to work with the camera, I'm too dumb I guess....
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
There should be a little flash button thing in your camera. As of using the led outside of the camera app, I have yet to find something that works. And the cm7 notification toggle flashlight doesn't work for those of you wondering
[Fascinate Android Development] thedoman:
Directions say to flash directly over your current install. I did this without wiping anything and it was fine.

Btw for those who are posting about camera flash. I don't see a control for camera flash on the camera app. I'm obviously missing something. Can 1 of you help me?
[Fascinate Android Development] DroiDAddicT14:
im a little annoyed. i had test build 5 on my phone and i wiped cache and dalvik (idk why, i juss did) and flashed test build 6. now im in a boot loop and idk what to do -___-
[Fascinate Android Development] kwinders:
I think JT posted if you boot loop, you may need to clear data.
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
When you open the camera app the Little menus that are in the viewing screen. (1x, auto, etc.) The flash option (the lightning bolt) is next to the zoom option (1x)
[Fascinate Android Development] DroiDAddicT14:
yeah i want to but how can i get back into recovery now? im not familiar with adb reboot recovery
[Fascinate Android Development] kwinders:
Hmmmm, just looked again, mine has white balance next to zoom, no lightning bolt like I had in froyo. Is there a replacement camera.apk?
[Fascinate Android Development] kwinders:
Some people posted using the 3 finger boot, though not recommended
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
I wiped data/cache/dalvik and got a boot loop too. The way I got out of it was to use the 3 button method. Wipe all 3 again then flash build 6
[Fascinate Android Development] turtleman2008:
Hmm it's there on mine and this is the stock camera.apk. Maybe try flashing again?

[Fascinate Android Development] iofthestorm:
Only system apps/data, regular user apps restore just fine. Or well, in general for TW and AOSP ROMs.

I'm actually having a weird issue where after restoring my TiBu backup, everything starts force closing all over the place. I wiped data and started over and didn't restore system data this time (I was previously on CM7 with the .32 kernel) and same thing. Before restoring apps and data it was fine. Not really sure what's going on here, since other people have restored their backups fine.

Edit: Strangely enough, might have something to do with ADW Ex. Switching to ADW seems to lessen the FCs. Might have just been something funky with my ADW backed up data.
[Fascinate Android Development] PeterGunz:
Can't be that easy, can it?
[Fascinate Android Development] GoogleAndroid:
Can't flash the new build. It gets stuck on the countdown for the SD card to mount and keeps looping it. I've tried different recoveries and everything.
[Fascinate Android Development] jt1134:
Nope :(

Where do you get those files. 2.2 pit and dl09 and what box do you check in odin
