agreed. I am at upgrade time and because of this ROM I could care less about upgrading. The new phones probably don't hold a candle to this ROM!

saved me the upgrade fee for a new phone. Thank you!

I could definitely live without it, I use volume + for my volume boosting needs.

[Fascinate Android Development] djk21108:
Movie maker. Standard non-gmail email application. Both, I manually delete when I load up a new ROM.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
I'm thinking about that, too. But gmail comes with the google apps, so you're going to get it (I think, anyway) when you flash that, not the rom.

I am about to switch back over to K9 mail, just because I can't get gmail to shut the hell up in the middle of the night because of the stupid way they implemented their "notification" sounds.

Heck, if there were compatible equivalents to *all* the google apps, I'd consider trying them at this point since the gapps are my main source of problems on this phone. And no, b!ng doesn't qualify. :-p

I think I'm straight with the way it is now. If I find an app that gets on my nerves, I just ditch it. If any, I kinda am on the fence with titanium and NSTools being system apps. Titanium deleted my settings.XML for some reason being part of the ROM. No big deal though.

[Fascinate Android Development] errolroach:
Movie Studio, the "News and Weather" thing...I would be fine without. I use the non-gmail standard email app for work, so I would vote for that one to stay...but i guess I could always download it. Any music player can go...I always download my own. Not sure what else there is.
[Fascinate Android Development] Merman1983:
Unrelated to this ROM I'd recommend trying a different alarm i.e. an alarm app. Alarm Clock Xtreme has the option to "force the alarm through the speakers when plugged in" so I'm guessing it would play through the headphone jack. iirc Gentle Alarm has similar settings.

Are you using the stock alarm?
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
as i mentioned in the genreal section, i would like to see the rotation delay setting added back to the rom. also i have noticed since the early ths builds that the calculator is very slow....you have to wait almost a second between touching numbers. i use the calculator when im on my route doing collection so its an important feature for me. i tbought maybe that overtime the calc would get fixed, its not a deal breaker by anymeans, but it would be nice to get it working smooth someday.

as far as the apps, not really a big deal to me since I just use tibu to freeze all those unwanted apps.

music fx

movie maker

news and weather

unicorn porn

setup wizard 1.3

videos 1.4

talk 4.0.4

ol file manager

my uploads

music 4.1

movie studio

gallery

currents

videos

all get froze everytime i reflash a new aokp build.
[Fascinate Android Development] bobloblaw1:
You could remove all the optional apps and offer them as a CWM flashable zip for the system apps and apks for the user apps. That would give lean builds with the option to add everything back in.
[Fascinate Android Development] sarkozy:
The genie widget (news/weather) is in the GAPPS package, so if you want that gone you'll have to modify the GAPPS.zip you already have.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
I end up freezing the default calculator app and use one called Real Calc from the market. It's a full scientific calculator and much nicer. There's a pro version that allows a few more features for $$ but even as an engineer, I find I never need them.
[Fascinate Android Development] neh4pres:
I use the news and weather, and email
[Fascinate Android Development] ice.candi:
One thing that's bugged me is the keyboard...i always freeze it and install Swype...only thing is on this rom it gives me screen size errors...prob need a new version from cm7...

i agree with the dsp over fx...and have never used the news widget genie

and i thought we did have tv out on this phone...i remember seeing an option for it (although im not sure which rom i saw it on and i never actually tried it for the lack of cables im sure id need)

Last thing is i miss having an alarm clock that i can set the snooze for each alarm like the original Samsung one...otherwise i have to say aside from hating the color scheme on ics and the lack of themes that don't break things...it runs great (although my battery goes from charged to dead in 2 hours of light use) but im still playing with settings...
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
Thanks Ill check that out!!!
[Fascinate Android Development] vlucchetti:
I just go move those apps I don't want to the sdcard in a separate folder. Music, news/weather, unicorn porn, all the live wallpapers, gmail, browser, apex and a slew more.

I'd rather take out what I don't want than have others decide what I need or do not need in the way of apps. Too many extra zips to have around with the items you then want to add back in.
[Fascinate Android Development] rsswga:
I luv my fascinate again. thanks all

is there a overclocked kernel that will work with this rom ?
[Fascinate Android Development] SkOrPn:
Anyone know if APN settings can be changed on this ROM? I am using a Vibrant, but my baby brother wants to try this ROM on his Fascinate, but he is on Cricket service and wants to know if the APN's can be changed so he can access his data service etc?

Also, I already tried flashing this for him but it does not boot up, it only stays on the pink unicorn screen forever. However, the CM9 test in this section of XDA flashes and runs just fine. I've been flashing/modding smartphones for 5 years or more and this seems to be one of the more difficult phones to work with. At one point no matter what I did it would only boot to the recovery screen. Is it possible that AOKP will now flash since we are successfully on CM9 now? That I have not tried yet. I just followed the OP to the letter T and after 2 hours of trying, and it always getting stuck in the boot animation, I figured either something was missing that the OP does not mention, OR I am missing something I am not aware of since this is not my phone, i.e. proper bootloader?.

Also, on my Vibrant we have GB Bootloaders that help with making the button combo much easier to use. I read somewhere that GB Bootloaders are also avail for the fascinate. Is this true?

Thanks for any advice you can give me. I feel sorry for him always having to stick with Froyo because of the APN thing. That's what he gets for buying a phone from Craigs for his Cricket service.... lol

[Fascinate Android Development] shelby04861:
I agree. I would leave the apps and let people delete them if they font like them. It is a lot easier to get rid of them than to have to find them all and install them every time.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
You may be interested in one or the other of these:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28682151/ICS-outlined-Swype-v5-Beta-326.apk

I personally like the ICS-outlined one. Also, these don't appear to have the cripple-ware aspect that plagues orthodox swype.

I have good luck installing these with the package installer, or adb install <apk name>
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
if u flashed the glitch version then you already have a oc capable kernel.

Running great, came from build 28. Running the Glitched version. Only bug I can find is BLN doesn't work with SMS/MMS messages. Works fine with Gmail/email tho. Very strange. Yea I wiped the big 3 (in fact did it twice) but no dice. So sadly going back to build 28 tonight.
[Fascinate Android Development] millwood:
Have you checked the settings in Rom Control or is NSTools? You might need to change the settings or toggle them. Just a thought. BLN has worked for me, but I do have it set to time out after a while.
[Fascinate Android Development] mezster:
I use a car dock, audio won't work unless you use an app called Dock Audio Redirect since it is aosp (will work natively on tw) - works perfect and with dsp manager installed it sounds great (lessens amount of digital noise that normally occurs).
[Fascinate Android Development] mezster:
Try this for tw clock app. For nexus s but it works. Noticed a couple things look wonky upon alarm going off but it works nonetheless.

http://www.mediafire.com/?y7k7mhr39cbut8y

I use a tw clock app that I pulled from a captivate aosp rom (doc's rom I believe), but I flash this in order to get all the sound files and things, then delete the apk and install the captivate one via root explorer. I believe that rom also had working tw calculator and memo apks, but I can't remember.
[Fascinate Android Development] saps:
Yeah I was pleased as punch on M4 and 28 and 29 seemed to have a growing pain or two for some so I just was content with a perfectly fine M4 but with the extra ram et al I figured I'd step my game up to the 4.0.4 build. Its trouble free for me as much as M4 was
[Fascinate Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
It's hard to imagine it getting any better than this.... This is about as close to perfect as I've seen on this phone. But we aren't done yet. Six Efpophis and I all got stuff cooking.

Woah, thanks for bringing this to my attention, this works a fair bit better than the way I used to do it (just deleting the symlink and not using /datadata at all). Yeah, I agree that it'd be nice if it was included in the ROM, it seems like it should only help with minimal performance issues (IMO even just forgetting about /datadata completely doesn't seem to hurt performance too much).

The blinking BLN did work a little bit ago on the glitch kernel, but it would only blink for 5 minutes before returning to being solidly lit. I tried it on the latest glitched build and blinking doesn't seem to work any more, I'm not sure what BLN related changes may have happened in the kernel.

[Fascinate Android Development] SotYPL:
Quick question. This rom is beautiful and it's my daily driver for some time but one thing keeps bugging me, speaker phone echo. Turning down mic gain helps a little bit but still speaker phone is almost useless. Sprint Nexus S 4G is about to receive (or already had, I'm not sure) official ICS update. Will it help us to get hardware echo cancelling working in any way? I think most of its hardware is the same but I could be wrong.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
The only way I know of right now to deal with the speakerphone echo is to back down the mic gain, like you have done. The fassy doesn't have the hardware necessary to do echo cancellation, so it either has to be done in software or not at all. I've never seen code anywhere that would do it, and I wouldn't even know where to start with banging it out on my own (I'm not a DSP guy).
[Fascinate Android Development] colklink14:
WIFI is a killer

Without a doubt the best rom I have ever had on my Fassy,

However,

If I leave the wifi on, the phone crashes. Or maybe when ot goes to sleep it doesn't wake up(??)

I did a complete redo, odined back to edo5, TH2, and then glitchy 31. still doing it

I am stumped, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[Fascinate Android Development] SotYPL:
Oh I thought that fascinate has some kind of echo cancelling hardware cause speaker phone works very good on all tw roms.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
Nope, it doesn't. I think maybe the Captivate does, but that's the only Galaxy device I know of (and I might even have that wrong). If I were to guess, I'd say Samsung did something dodgy in the framework code they refuse to release that does some sort of audio magic and makes everything wonderful on tw roms. Barring a miracle, I don't see it coming to AOSP or AOKP any time soon, sadly.
[Fascinate Android Development] sfobrien:
This is only reason I have went back to GB Superclean. I need my speakerphone about 75% of the time at work.

Love CM9 wish I could use it fulltime.
[Fascinate Android Development] SotYPL:
What about Nexus S? I haven't seen anyone complaining about echo in their ICS thread and I think it doesn't have second microphone neither so maybe there is something that we could use to fix echo issue. I'm not dev in any way so sorry if my questions are silly :)
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
I'm not sure what audio hardware they use, it may be different from ours. Honestly, it's a tricky issue, and I really don't have the time to look into it right now. It took me months of investigation and experimentation on my own to figure out the call audio fix back in the GB days, and that was really just slapping a Dora The Explorer Band-Aid onto a gaping chest wound. My work and family situation was vastly different back then (easier job, no baby), too.
[Fascinate Android Development] sixstringsg:
Captivate is the only one with a noise canceling chip in it, but it doesn't work on AOSP.

Bluetooth works well. As does a wired headset.

The biggest issue I am having is that when in a call, I cannot bring up the dialpad again preventing me from typing in an access code for a conference call .. had to revert to GB to gain this back. It just blacks out the screen when selected. This is on a Fascinate with build 31.

Is there already a fix for this? I search but could only find where others also reported similar issues
[Fascinate Android Development] bobloblaw1:
I just hit the dial-pad icon in the lower left hand corner while on a call. It works everytime for me. Surely you have tried that?
[Fascinate Android Development] dsrhokie:
@Steve...

+1 on the battery charging icon not appearing when I try to charge with the phone powered off. I have yet to try briefly pressing the power button as suggested on the last page, but I will and report back.

Additional battery oddities....when powered on, the battery icon in the status bar does not show that it is charging (even though it is) unless it is plugged into a PC. Also, on multiple occasions I have powered down at 30/40%, and when I powered up 8 hours later or so, the phone is almost fully discharged (2/3%). This has been occurred with 3 different OEM batteries, so it is not battery specific.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Other than these minor oddities, I cannot heap enough praise and gratitude on/for this ROM.

Thanks,

Dave

Then something is apparently wrong with your install. I'd re-download and re-flash. Maybe even a data wipe, and see if it works before you restore any apps.
[Fascinate Android Development] shelby04861:
No battery icon issues for charging or battery depletion , or dialpad issues here. All is normal.
[Fascinate Android Development] bobloblaw1:
Agreed that something is wrong with your download or install. Bringing up the dialpad definitely works. Maybe even try clearing dialer app data...

As to the discharge issue while the phone is off; I know chopper mentioned something along those lines months ago but it would discharge over a course of a week while off and not merely hours.
[Fascinate Android Development] tab22:
Well ... good news is I reinstalled and it's now working correctly. I get the dialpad icon in the corner which i did not have previously. Not sure what went wrong the first time, followed the same procedure .. oh well! Now I can try this thing out for real

Yay!

I wonder how many people are suffering from bad downloads. Maybe we outta start md5ing or sha1ing these builds...or even signing them?

Anybody else having issues mounting the SD card. Fast recharge is definitely off in nstools and romcontrol. Rebooted. Still off. Still no dice. I have the Samsung usb drivers installed too.
