Steve, Thank you for all that you've done. You, combined with JT's amazing talents, have made my 2+ year old fascinate great! I was at Verizon today, picking up an iPhone 5 for my fiancee, when a rep saw my fascinate with AOKP; he said that he'd never seen a fascinate run so smoothly!

Good luck to you, and thanks again!
[Fascinate Android Development] TheHobbyist:
Rocking an s3 these days but I checked in to see how things were going in the olé stomping ground... You will be missed! Thanks for everything and take care!
[Fascinate Android Development] ztotherad:
Steve, i for one am grateful that you and everyone has made this phone amazing! i appreciate all the work you've done for is
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
Bombshell :screwy: you will definitely be missed,,,

Thought it seemed like some tension from the other side...

glad you are leaving it open for help to keep peeps running :D

Thanks to YOU and ALL who have worked so hard to keep the fassy going... :thumbup:
[Fascinate Android Development] Kaptinkrunk:
thank you for all your help steve
[Fascinate Android Development] SupraLance:
Not to mention the old Fascinate has unlimited internet and I use a lot... Verizon's new plans suck for single people who don't talk/text much. Sigh, sad to see people like Steve move on, but looking back and remembering the months spent wondering if we would ever get Froyo on the Fascinate and just happy to have gotten rid of TW and Bing, this phone has come further than I ever expected already. I will miss AOKP, but as long as JT stays at it, at least we still have CM.
[Fascinate Android Development] Crawshayi:
Hate to see you go man, AOKP was the first rom I had on my phone and even though I've tried a lot of other ones, I keep coming back to AOKP. Thanks to all the hard work you put in for us, and I wish you the best of luck on your future en devours.

Steve's future hordeuvres lol
[Fascinate Android Development] el6006:
So is this really the end of the line peeps?? That sux. I must say thanks to any and all devs that got this phone working this far and keeping it working flawlessly until now. Thanks again for everything.
[Fascinate Android Development] Mod57:
Just wanted to say thanks too really enjoyed your work. Stay thirsty my friend.
[Fascinate Android Development] XxStechxX:
Damn man, that really hurts I've held off on upgrading for 3 months. That is how awesome that this rom you've created for us is! Keep us posted on what's going on man, I know you are going to have a hard time not trolling this thread! You'll miss us to much ;)

In the past 2 years I've been running my fassy, (asked her out the same day I got it). Met my wife got married, proposed July 4th. Found out I'm going to be a daddy next May. Hope it's a girl. Oh & I busted out the Lego's this week 2. UNICORNS **** YEAH!

Well damn, Steve, now I need to know what the best rom/kernel is for the SG3, as that will likely be my jump in the future.

Although, I'm not sure. is the SG3 the way to go or is there another quality VZW option that we can turn out like the ol' Fasc?
[Fascinate Android Development] stven:
Sad to hear that steve. Anyway thanks for your kindness for making alive our fascinate with your aokp port. We hope you still support us if other member can continue to develop aokp for fascinate. (I hope :p)

[Fascinate Android Development] mezster:
Being on uscc and having no nexus option there is pretty much only the s3 and note2. Note2 is light on development with no aosp ROM available. S3 has some pretty good support and official aokp, but I will probably wait until I'm sure it has aosp 4.2 ROMs available before I switch though.
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
Well honestly I can't change the new plans are too high lol so I'm stuck with my fascinate honestly guys I feel sick I can't get Linux running a build aokp. Dam computer. I hope yall all don't leave me lol
[Fascinate Android Development] BDogg718:
Sad to see ya leaving Steve. Thanx for all u have done for this community. My fassy would never be what it is without u.

To all that r still on the fassy. I have already ordered the note 2. However, I love this phone. So, if anyone is interested in keeping development for this thing going...i will attempt to keep builds going. Im not a pro by any means but i think i know enough to compile a build. So if we all work together and support each other I see no reason we cant keep this device alive and kicking. Im dling 4.2 source now to start poking around. Not 100% on linux just yet so might have couple ?s later..but thats y we r a community. :good:
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
Just chatted with Steve a bit. I'm going to see if I can get a brain-dump and at least try to keep the fassy going. I can't promise anything, and I doubt I'll have time for much more than just keeping up and minor maintenance work. But I'll at least try to keep the lights on for a bit.
[Fascinate Android Development] BDogg718:
Would be more than happy to help in anyway i can.
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
I don't have Linux so I can't sync the source but I have enough exsprierce with our 3 minds together we can keep up the fascinate hopefully you need any help what so ever just ask anything the basics, the advanced whatever the problem may be I will help you the best I can

[Fascinate Android Development] Merman1983:
First the Totally Rad Show ends and now Steve is moving on up to the de-lux apt. in the sky.

Well, you took right up to Black Friday so I may just take this as the camel breaking straw and just burn my upgrade on something - perhaps even a GNex (unless some crazy deal pops up I've not heard of) because no matter what the specs I've found that the most fun I get out of my phone is trying new software and always trying to improve things i.e. tinkering about.

STEVE are you done developing? im about to try to make aokp for a dell mini ten and want to make it more like ubunutu would anyone like to help?

Is there a "best" kernel option out there for Milestone 1?

The kernel this comes with seems fine for the most part but my auto brightness doesn't seem to work as well as it has in the past. But every devil kernel I've installed seems to lag big time
[Fascinate Android Development] XxStechxX:
1.6.1 seems to be the best for me

Sent from my Nexus 7 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
[Fascinate Android Development] spearoid:
Yeah. I had read that elsewhere. But I noticed significant lag installing that last week. I installed it after having run Milestone 1 for a couple weeks. Not sure if there'd be no lag if I did a factory reset after installing the kernel.

I dirty flashed Steve's justforfun on top of my lagging rom and the lag went away when Steve's packaged kernel was installed.
[Fascinate Android Development] ZeroLozen:
Coming from AOKP ICS M6. Can I just flash FascinateForFun.zip over it? Or do I need to wipe all 3 and flash twice? Can't see to find the process from M6 to JB. Any help will be appreciated. And of course, a big hats off to Steve...Thank you so much for letting this device be so awesome. Good luck and beat of wishes for all of your future ventures! :)
[Fascinate Android Development] Eris _2.1_2010:
You have to flash twice now because of the new partition layout. The first flash will give a status error and warn you. Just flash the zip again then your gapps. If I remembered that correctly lol

[Fascinate Android Development] ztotherad:
yup you got it right bro. the second flash will erase your data so you'll have to reset everything back up, but its worth it
[Fascinate Android Development] ZeroLozen:
Thank you gentlemen. Setting things up now. Much obliged. Then just flash Devil 1.6.1 since that is what people seem to be saying works the best?

You're going to have to flash so cwm updates to cwm6 then flash again and you should be good
[Fascinate Android Development] theseeker2654:
Ok, so I have a question. My wifes fascinate is currently on MS6. I just recently upgraded her to that from MS5. I did a wipe of data/dalvik and flashed the rom then gapps. Everything seems fine EXCEPT the wifi isnt working. It will find the router, I put in my password which I know is correct, and then it says saved, but it keeps trying to connect over and over and never does fully connect.

Is there a known wifi issue with MS6? Would switching over to this release help? Anyone know what I may be doing wrong?
[Fascinate Android Development] username8611:
i havent had any wifi issues with MS6 ICS or JB milestone 1. im guessing just a clean flash would solve. just make sure she backs everything up with titanium backup or is ok with redownloading everything and losing saved games
[Fascinate Android Development] ZeroLozen:
Anyone have a mirror of Devil 1.6.1?
[Fascinate Android Development] Shamestick:
the website is down at the moment but just go to hellybean.com in a little while and you can find all the devil kernels, including 1.9.5 which is the newest
[Fascinate Android Development] ZeroLozen:
Yeah I saw that actually. They are down unfortunately. Leaving for weekend and wanted to get it installed. But I did find this...so I believe this is a mirror for it?

I just don't know what VC or CMC differences are? Any idea???
[Fascinate Android Development] Shamestick:
VC is voodoo color and allows you to change the colors of your screen/filtering and CMC doesnt, but you could just consider CMC to be the "regular"
[Fascinate Android Development] Crawshayi:
CMC = Cyanogen Mod Color

VC = Voodoo color

Personal preference. I've always used CMC with the following settings:

Red 1.000

Green 0.887

Blue 1.000

Red Gamma -40

Green Gamma -40

Blue Gamma -40

---------- Post added at 04:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

CMC works fine with color tuning settings, so not sure what you're talking about... do you use VC and if so what do you use that's special to tune it?
[Fascinate Android Development] Shamestick:
lol I changed my color tuning to your settings and I like it, it feels like idk.. a deeper color haha.
[Fascinate Android Development] Crawshayi:
I know it's nice, but I can't take the credit for it, someone had passed on those settings to me and I loved it but for the life of me I can't remember who it was. I hope they don't think I'm trying to steal the credit for that little gem heh
[Fascinate Android Development] Shamestick:
With CMC you can color tune to the stock limits in the device option settings, but with VC you use the voodoo color app and you get to go past that, as well as change some other color multipliers and such. For example with VC having the gammas be set to -54 red, -57 green, and -48 blue it makes the darks really awesome
[Fascinate Android Development] Crawshayi:
Interesting, I'll have to mess with that someday soon. The Voodoo sound app has those settings then? I didn't see anything on the market specifically for color
[Fascinate Android Development] Shamestick:
Yeah they just put them both into one and put the name as voodoo sound, for whatever reason haha.

EDIT: I couldn't find the color settings in the sound app, it seems they made it only sound now. But if you get devil kernel config .91 it has voodoo color settings in it, however you have to install the apk itself because the one on the market is only .9

Wow...OK. I am totally lost now. I just installed 1.6.1 CMC and it seems that the only thing that has changes is CWM. What happened to all of the Kernel settings like in M6? I can't find BLN settings, color setting seem to be the same as before with out the Kernel. Over and Under clocking setting seem to be same. I wiped Dalvik and Cache. Am I missing something?
[Fascinate Android Development] endomatic:
JD,

I have had that problem with some of the earlier JB(and ICS) builds, not this one though. Tasker will work. You may want to re flash.

Cheers

Thanks bro. I'm flashing Steve's 8-27 build now, so we'll see what happens. If my experience is isolated, I'm sure its not a bug. I'll putz around with it.

Steve what he is talking about is brightness control in the status bar. Sliding your finger across to turn up or down.

Also I've noticed in the past few builds that volume controls are missing for volume buttons.

Need power menu screenshot love that feature but not absolutely

Love all the work from the devs

I think if you and DT get together you two could collaborate one hella ROM
[Fascinate Android Development] Aesrys:
Anyone have a mirror? I'd like to download the latest build, but obviously can't because of the server move (unless I'm missing something of course, which is possible since I haven't had my morning caffeine yet).
[Fascinate Android Development] icemanwbs:
Still moving ?
[Fascinate Android Development] Aesrys:
Maybe it's a subtle compliment. Everyone is so happy with AOKP MS6 that it's hard to justify moving.:D Honestly, I've tried several of the JB roms and none of them really seem any more snappy and responsive than MS6 with the latest Devil. Still, when the server comes back, I'll definitely test the latest AOKP JB.

Edit: I see that the site is up, so downloading now.
[Fascinate Android Development] adamklo:
Sorry, but I don't know what this means.

No, I'm not.
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
Nice .. grabbing mine now. Download #2, woot!
[Fascinate Android Development] JoeDat:
I think the biggest headache for anyone moving from ICS to JB on this phone is the partition layout change needed to eliminate the horrible lag we experience with these phones. Having only ~460mb of storage left for data means that you'll be moving 80+% of your apps to either the /system partition or the sdcard. Link2SD will become your new best friend. However, if you're willing to take the time to set it all up, it's well worth it for folks who like to be on the cutting edge. This phone flies running AOKP JB, and with the Devil kernel, it's even smoother and has decent battery life.

So, my opinion (whatever that's worth to ya): Take the leap. If you're willing to spend the time to do it right, you won't regret it.
[Fascinate Android Development] Aesrys:
I'm actually testing that idea right now. I had my MS6 setup cleared up so hopefully I had only the right amount of apps for the new partition layout. Doing a TiBu restore now to see if I was right.

EDIT: Aaaannnnddd I didn't. Crud. Oh well.
[Fascinate Android Development] JoeDat:
If you're doing a batch restore in TiBU, and it's freezing, you're out of space. TiBU won't pop a warning or anything, at least it didn't for me. It sounds like you did your due diligence ahead of time, rather than just jumping into the fire like me. So, hopefully you're ok. I wound up restoring an app or two at a time, moving it to sdcard, rinsing and repeating. I eventually got there. I kept all my Google apps, TiBU, Links2SD, and any apps I use widgets for internal, and moved everything else. I'm left with 71mb free. Good luck!
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
Is anyone besides me having trouble with USB mass storage? Can't seem to get my computer to recognize when I've turned it on anymore. The disk shows up under "my computer," but it's apparently not mounted.

Yeah, something is definitely wrong. The little USB debug / USB storage notifications don't even go away when I pull the plug. Nothing useful in the logcat, either. I'll investigate further.
[Fascinate Android Development] Aesrys:
On the latest build and mine mounts. Tends to take a while to get there though (close to a minute).

[Fascinate Android Development] djjstew:
I took the plunge again and clean installed M1 with Devil 1.9.5 which is dated 11/22/2012. None of the Devil since 1.6.1 worked for with serious lag issues after a few hours. I have been running 1.9.5 since this morning and so far so good. A few times today my Fassy went off into I/O twilight zone for a few minutes (creating lag) but nothing like the other versions. I'm gonna let this one ride for a few days coz when it works is like butta. cheers all and

BTW: Good luck Stephen Spear, thanks so much for helping keep my ancient Fassy alive for at least another year and good luck to you and your family. (appreciation also to jt and dt). I am seriously considering the Nexus 4 and going prepaid. Everything makes sense esp the money except the storage - 16 gb common Google sometimes cloud just does not work. I figured out about 8 months pay back for buying the device. Would hate to say bye to my Fassy and unlimited data but would love to tell VZN and the $85/mo to kiss my a**!
[Fascinate Android Development] Crawshayi:
Does 1.9.5 seem faster to you or about the same as 1.6.1? I'm going to try it myself but just wondering from someone else's perspective. Also, if you go prepaid how much a month does it work out to and does it include voice and unlimited text? The only major advantage to sticking with Verizon would be the coverage area (not to mention LTE support I guess)
[Fascinate Android Development] Eris _2.1_2010:
1.9.5 running smooth since yesterday.

Sent from my Google SkyNet Device
[Fascinate Android Development] djjstew:
The two plans in my area that I looked closely at are $45 a month includes voice text and data. One plan is based on at&the network which has good coverage in my area. The other is T mobile which does not have good coverage & has a hard 5gb data cap which I could live with if the coverage was better.

Right now I think 1.6.1 is better overall but I will stick with the new version for a few days to get a better feel. It has not really lagged much since earlier today.
[Fascinate Android Development] el6006:
I told VZ to kiss my ass the day I found out about PagePlusCellular. My Incredible, then my Incredible 2, and now my Fascinate and I have been very happy with the service. They have even slowly been adding more data to their plans and their prices are just awesome. Cheaper than VZ but still using VZ network! Nice.

I have Wifi at home and both jobs so I think I will be dropping down to their Talk n Text 1200 plan which will give me 250MB to use while in between home and work which is just travel anyways for just $30 a month. Cheap.
[Fascinate Android Development] djjstew:
I have downgraded to Devil 1.6.1 again. After about 24 hours 1.9.5 slowed to a crawl. Again I used Elixer to monitor what was going on and similar to other versions above 1.6.1; excessive I/O activity. Once I downgraded to 1.6.1 the phone was about as perfect as Fassy can be. One other thing I noticed going back, on 1.6.1 memory was about 80mb free, on 1.9.5 it was about 50mb free. I made no other changes to my phone that can account for this delta. Could that possibly have anything to do with the lag?

Not sure all of you noticed jt has put out a very early Alpha CM 10.x for 4.2 I might give this a try in a few days when I have some time off work. Here is the link for those interested.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/36742-alpharom42-cyanogenmod-10x-unofficial-for-samsung-fascinate-1123/
[Fascinate Android Development] ssewk2x:
One thing I discovered is that it seems like the "low memkiller threshold" option is not being set properly using 1.9.5 and aokp M1. Under Elixir, if I go into Info and press the "memory" item, and select "more information," I am presented with a table that shows some interesting information:

I have my "min free" option set at 80MB. It seems like the kernel or something is ignoring this setting and allowing my free memory to drop way below it.

My current uptime is 2 days and a few hours. I'm not experiencing any more lag than usual at the moment.

So, I wonder if all this is just some sort of mix-up between kernel and ROM over how to configure those memory thresholds?
