I think a lot of people are running these WiFi only or WiFi mainly and don't notice a few data drops. But I need data and it is intolerable to me. We're so close.
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
strange then,,, did you happen to try this version

http://goo.im/devs/notta/roms/fascin...L-20140312.zip

I used it for over a week [ til new 3/18 version was out,lol ] and I did not notice a single drop out of service...
[Fascinate Android Development] kb8no:
Thanks for the suggestion! I went straight to the 3/18 build and skipped 3/12. I'm going to try it when I get on WiFi to download it. And thanks for the 4.2.2 suggestions.
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
Also, what are you determining the data drop by other than the color changing in the tile, cause if i remember correctly that function has changed for kit kat/4.4.

Edit sorry... Orange on quick tile does indicate no connection
[Fascinate Android Development] kb8no:
Orange = NC. Once I discovered this it made life easier so when I suspected no data I could find out right away and fix it at the same time. I dropped data 4 times today.
[Fascinate Android Development] kb8no:
I flashed the ril version today so I'm on it. Too early to say but nothing yet. :hope:
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
OK, i may not stay on 3g long enough though to notice a predictably random data drop :o

of this nature.

Hopefully i haven't mislead you. it's a bit different than the other drops it had early on in KitKat development
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
just dropping in to see how things went for you with data access.

on another note, I did notice when setting up a new rom build

before I loaded

and installed gapps that I

had Orange

in my quicksettings display even though I

had 3g

access to browse internet, etc. I know thats usually an unlikely scenario for most will/would have their google account installed on their phones,,, and there again i'm not on 3g long enough to usually matter and/or toggling airplane on/off corrects its flaw
[Fascinate Android Development] kb8no:
Thanks for checking back. Orange seems to mean no data in 4.4. if you toggle data the tile turns orange. If you suspect there is no data and confirm it, the tile will be orange. it does not seem to be the same message as the blue or not blue icon in JB which means you are connected or not connected to the Google server. When I use my phone I use the heck out of it with heavy data usage as well in and out of good coverage both because of my rather remote area and my work in the bottom center of a big building. So I put the device through the paces from the get go and I know pretty soon if the ROM has trouble connecting.

I bypassed the PA RIL version and went to 3/18 since it was newer and got data drops and gave up. I went back at your suggestion and tried the RIL version and same data drops. In the mean time Notta dropped his 3/27 build and I tried that but same data drops. I did not try his latest 4/10. This is the same experinece with anything 4.4 including the CM builds. A couple of the CM builds have been otherwise pretty nice. I agree, this does not seem to be the same problem at all as they had with the early releases of 4.4. It is definately not related to the early WiFi issues.

I also had some problem with freezes and slow downs on PA. The same with CM but I dont' think as pronounced.

I therefore abandoned PA and CM 4.4 builds and went back to Hellybean 4.2.2 from 7/23 which I believe was his last build. I did a completely clean install from scratch from CM with TWRP baked into it. This required first installing a backup with CWM baked in the ROM in order to flash HB which also has CWM (Devil version) baked into it. It wouldn' flash with TWRP. HB works perfectly. Absolutely no data drops, no freezes, no slow downs. Devil kernel gives me fast charge again (which I love). I miss TWRP but it is what it is. If there is reason to think there are some new builds that work I will try them again.

Maybe this will give you some bright ideas, you know a lot more about this stuff than I know and I always look fordward to reading your posts.
[Fascinate Android Development] electric bill:
I too am seeing more data drops recently. I've also noticed that this rom has slowed down quite a bit. It might be caused by an app or two that I've loaded but I'm starting to think about going back to JB.
[Fascinate Android Development] jgmedina:
This Helped with status (0)

this helped me resolve the status (0) error message. thanks. I was wondering if i want to switch to paranoid rom can i just flash the rom/gapps or do i have to go back to stock?
[Fascinate Android Development] skepticmisfit:
just flash the ROM and gapps
[Fascinate Android Development] jgmedina:
status (0)

Got stuck in cyanogen boot loop Left it running overnight and nothing, went back to stock and re rooted now get error Status 0 and in the cm file when i try to install

i really want to install paranoid. butwhen twrp loads says no os found
[Fascinate Android Development] skepticmisfit:
uh.. well did you wipe data before flashing paranoid originally?

also, you should be on a CM rom before flashing anything else (pa, etc.) so that the partitions can be properly configured.
[Fascinate Android Development] jgmedina:
yeah was on cm-10.1 but i didn;t wipe since when i wiped before it deleted the stock os. But i wiped since i was stuck on PA boot.

i saw there was a PA beta4 for fassy so i have to install 2 and 3 before i install beta 4.

google services and firefox are not connecting to wifi or 3G. and i have had issue with setting for network being unchecked. Is that a

a bug?

Is there a way (radio) i can install to pick up LTE service?
[Fascinate Android Development] skepticmisfit:
wait a minute.. that last part.. did i.. did i read that right?

wait a minute... gotta put away the drugs.

oh... my... god... :laugh:

no
[Fascinate Android Development] jgmedina:

[Fascinate Android Development] Lgrootnoob:
where is gapps? It says 404 not found for pa gapps on the post. :/
[Fascinate Android Development] bmeek:
The fascinate predates vzw's LTE network and doesn't have the hardware to support LTE. The GS3 is a few generations newer (but is also showing its age these days). I guess skepticmisfit was amused that someone in this forum didn't already understand this.

It's amazing that the devs have managed to get KitKat running on the old fascinate, frankly.
[Fascinate Android Development] Lgrootnoob:
nvm, i just used the latest cm gapps. Also, note that romkonverter works great and I can use this on my Samsung Mesmerize with no issues. I don't use data tho
[Fascinate Android Development] Lgrootnoob:
Ok, I feel like a fool. You guys are mentioning versions like 3/18 that arent in the OP. Where are you getting them?

Or don't be afraid to try the V3.3

[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
Well let's skip over the fact it's your posting about DU in the cyanogenmod thread,, but please tell me which exact version and date of DU that you're running.

I assume you're running that CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery? and what is it from again?

Also what is it that you're exactly trying to achieve? you've got so many posts in so many forms that I don't think anybody really follows where you're going or what your trying to do.

.
[Fascinate Android Development] puterdoc:
I just wanted to jump in and mention what I have tried to maybe help. I had been running DU and had too many issues with it, every version and it doesn't seem to have the support anymore (supporters upgraded phones).

I went from there to PA 4.4.2. It has done well with a few reboots and pauses and the call display not coming up. I really like DU and have been fighting even upgrading my phone to stay with the group. But I have two of these fassys, so wanted to stay cheap and use them until the smoke comes out.

Just a day ago did I decide to try CM 11 with 3.6-cm-11-unjust-kernel_cwm-6.0.4.9... flash. It has run very well for me so far. Better than PA and much better than DU (sad to say). So personally imo if you are on the CM 11 with the mentioned kernel flash, I'd leave it there. I am using the PA-gapps-madular-mini-4.4.2-20140608 if that helps.

Obviously it might freeze in a few days and I decide to go back to PA but doesn't seem so just yet. For now it is fast and the first one to overcome the call display screen not working fast enough. Being I didn't try the Rom without the unjust flash I cant say if both solved this or not but can't thank those enough for that resolution. It drove me crazy.

I really do appreciate all those that continue support for these now definitely legacy products and those to come.
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
well who doesn't like a good edit :)

This version from injust

cm-11-20140604- UNOFFICIAL-fascinatemtd.zip

Is where the V3.6 has came from.

This ROM is the hands down most stable/dependable.

Also for me - this only happens at stock 1000 Mhz,,

Any overclock causes multiple various issues and/or reboots.

A build.prop mod that works very well is this:

dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=60m

std setting is 48m

It really helps with memory management

Another thing is adjusting the minfree settings like this:

I love the fact too, that it has the new them engine support.

Plus over the last week I've been running the 'art' runtime!

it too is being rock solid.

Still cant overclock it though.

It's been my 1st experience with art and I've not run into compatibility issues. So I'm very happy still!

edit::

another thing I do is check in titanium backup who is running the largest 'cache' and regularly clear them out

'g+' for one racks up a lot of cache quickly [like over 100 mb and starts filling up our /datadata partion]

Edit part-dos:

This is the 'performance control' app that I like to use

[Fascinate Android Development] dee3:
I'm also super happy with that build and I also noticed overclocking would be the only time I would get issues. I would just reflash the rom and boom fast and stable 4.4.2. Super happy with the last build on my personal phone. Theme is why I like these ROMs besides the stability.
[Fascinate Android Development] icemanwbs:
OK, I've been trying all weekend to get cm11 flashed without any luck. I tried going from stock ( using ODIN) . I tried using droidstyles guide ( which has never failed me before) I tried using skepticmisfits guide ( going to a cm10 first then cm11) I'd get the cm10 to work but had no way of getting into recovery , unless I three fingered into. ( not through power button like usual )

Flash would start , then would abort with either an error 7 or error 0. So idk if its just my old fassy won't accept kk or I got some bad downloads. So I'm back on AOKP Milestone 6 . :(
[Fascinate Android Development] Legitsu:
try flashing the cwm4-fixxed-noassets for cwm7 then cwm7 rom then cwm-6 from there you should be-able to flash a JB rom then a kitkat rom make sure you let the JB rom boot once

did you flash a cm7 rom from cwm4 fixxed ?

[Fascinate Android Development] skepticmisfit:
Oh haha in order to reboot in to recovery from cm10 without doing the three finger method you actually have to enable development options (tap build number a bunch of times) and then enable advanced reboot. Probably should've put that in my thread
[Fascinate Android Development] dee3:
Like seven times I think. It tells your when your there. Like 3,2,1, Dev status :)

OK, I'm totally frustrated lol . It looks like my only option is to ODIN back to stock and just keep flashing step by step til I reach some cm11 kitkat goodness . Fingers crossed :cool:

[Fascinate Android Development] Legitsu:
use teamregular as thats unjust's repo
[Fascinate Android Development] skepticmisfit:
the cyanogenmod one is most likely completely unchanged from the cm10.1 kernel. you do get a slight overclock (1.2GHz) but no real crazy governors, performance improvements, etc. although for the most part it's an adequate kernel for this phone, and considering it's a CM kernel (CM kernels arent known for being too crazy cool or anything, they just work)

oh, ok. that makes sense.

get hyped for even better audio improvements on android L.

Since our dac supports 24 bit audio and android L is now supporting it we should get much better quality.

http://geeknizer.com/audio-improvements-in-android-5-0-l-audiophile/

Also, note. I made a flashable zip that updates the art runtime of this rom to the 4.4.4 art.

If you arent aware, there is about 6 or 7 commits added to this art version.

Backup first!

Flash the zip without zip/m5sum verification.

Also, give it about 5 - 10 minutes to boot.

[Fascinate Android Development] skepticmisfit:
nice to see some development around here.

also im pretty sure 24bit audio was implemented in certain kernels, at least on gingerbread where there was proper Voodoo support (and really the only proper voodoo support came with Touchwiz, CM Voodoo used EI20 drivers and in some cases nexus s drivers, TW kernels always had EH03 drivers) but nice to see it in AOSP :good:

i hope you guys see another holy grail build like the june 4th cm11 one. that was a really awesome day for us. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] Lgrootnoob:
I thought dsp manager did everything that voodoo did properly.

I'm also gonna compile some 4.4.4 builds after i finish my work on the vs870

Anyways, i made a zip for android L too. The android L art keeps switching back to dalvik tho and its getting frustrating.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0J5C6YxKg67QW1XQjZqV2V3ZHM/edit?usp=sharing
[Fascinate Android Development] skepticmisfit:
about the voodoo: yes it does work properly for the most part. i think there's a couple minute features that arent in dspmanager but other than that their functionality is similar. cm uses ei20 aka samsung showcase drivers though. not a huge deal just something i noticed. the only kernels that use eh03 drivers (our newest stock VZW build) are touchwiz kernels from yore (KGB, leankernel, etc)
[Fascinate Android Development] Lgrootnoob:
Yep, I used to use kgb with awesome sauce v10(or 7?) which was eh03 and it ran really well with voodoo.

Btw, which rom are you running right now?
[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
So are you saying this second one works better than your 1st zip?

If you're interested I edited the boot animation more the way I thought it should have been

It's not perfect, but I like it better that the normal 'L' version

eclipse on a gs4. fascinate got passed on to my sister. apparently the phone got reported as "lost/stolen" when she activated it but all might be settled now. the fassy was certainly an upgrade for her, she had an LG with a tiny screen, a horrible skin on top of GB, like worse than TW if that's possible, and to top it all off the battery cover is gone and the battery is taped on with scotch tape.

although during the final days of my fascinate i was running ths build 15 aka cm9. great stuff :victory:
