[G Tablet General] nbowes:
Try holding down the + volume button and then hold down the power button. Keep both pressed in until you see "recovery key press detected" (or something like that). That will boot you into recovery mode. I use clockwork recovery, so I don't remember what the stock recovery looks like. There might be a cache wipe there. If so, try that first. There should be a factory reset there. If you factory reset, you get a tablet like it was fresh out of the box (you'll lose your settings and data from the last 4 days).

To answer your other question...this is not a perfect out-of-the box, everything-works tablet like iPad is. However, there are ROMs and tweaks here that give you a pretty awesome user experience. Some of them are exactly what you said--a playground for techies. My opinion is TNTLite is the best way to go for the user who isn't as excited about all the techno gack. Read the first page of this post:

It takes some reading to get it done right. And there are weird things that happen from time to time. It's impossible to ruin the tablet, but some of the fixes are deeper-tech and it can get frustrating. Mine is running great, TNTLite is stable, the hardware is very good, very fast. This tablet is much less expensive than the other ones that will be coming out this year. But the reality is that many of those will have a much better user interface and a better out-of-the-box experience.
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
The best thing to do is install Clockwork recovery. The stock recovery is worthless. This tab is virtually unbrickable. Install clockwork from this link and dont use Rom Manager.

Clear data/cache after installing clockwork
[G Tablet General] jgsolo32:
Force close loop

Ok, I cannot get back into recovery mode. When power button + volume up button pressed simultaneously the viewsonic then gtablet pics will come up but then screen goes blank then nothing. I have to shut it off to try again.

If I let it run, everything boots up then finally into vtl but I can never access the main menu because of all the force close windows and then finally the vtl force close window keeps popping up to no end.

What can I do???? Please help, I have researched site but to no avail.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twisted galaxy s:
I have no clue...I just flashed bionix-v and with instructions in front of me I followed every step. After second boot I realized phone factory reset and that's it nothing else has changed. I'm happy that its working and all I did was erase my data. I was expecting the black glass theme all I saw was grass. I am a noob and I did research for days before attempting this. But this was the last thing I expected. Thanks for any advise I can get
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Apocalypse:
did you try flashing the ROM again?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twisted galaxy s:
Not yet I'm trying to be cautious. Is it common that it not take the first time?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Apocalypse:
i've never heard of that happening....keep Odin locked and loaded...just in case...and try again.
[Fascinate Android Development] drod2169:
Full changelog coming tomorrow once I get some sleep. I've slept like 6 hours the past 3 nights and it's catching up to me.

The kernel and rom are NOT packaged together. Flash whatever kernel you'd like. DL09 kernels will cause issues with phone calls, because even though this rom is based off DL09, it uses Retrokid's GB theme for DJ05, + the DL09 reboot option/theme patch.

I'd like to thank:

JT1134

Birdman

Retrokid

AndroidDoes.net for hosting

bendbowden

All of my testers for their help and support

Change Log:

DL09 Based

All apps optimized/zipaligned

Retrokid's DJ05 Gingerbread theme w/ accurate battery mod

Gingerbread keyboard (have to turn it on via settings)

Mesmerize Contacts

Google DNS Servers

Full sysctl support (pre-tweaked with my goodies)

Full init.d support (pre-tweaked with my goodies)

Build.prop edits

Very minimal touchwiz (TW calendar is all)

AOSP Calculator

AOSP Lockscreen

AOSP Text messaging app

ADW Launcher

Zipalign on every boot (incase you install a theme or something, why sacrifice speed? :) )

Kernel Change Log:

Based off JT1134's source

ULV on the low end, top end at 1300mv (25mv less than stock)

7 Speed Slot's for better stability/battery life/options (100, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1150)

Disabled NORMALIZED_SLEEPER

Changed time slices

Source info, if you were to want to build off my kernel tree:

Please note, you must wipe data/cache, or there's a 90% chance you'll wind up in a FC loop.

SCH I500 DJ05 Super Clean v.9 Revolution 3.6 voodoo sound... fascinating
[Fascinate Android Development] upsidedownaaron:
give me about half an hour to get my titanium restore done, and i will try to get a screen shot.

this rom is puuurrrddyyy..
[Fascinate Android Development] ludionis:
Assuming this is Android 2.1, but I would love to know what differentiates this from other Roms, other than the reference to the OC Voodoo Kernel that is attached...
[Fascinate Android Development] spotmark:
I'm still on v1.3, which is DJ05 based. Do I need to flash the DL09 modem before I install this?
[Fascinate Android Development] tapout27:
Yea I would flash the DL09 modem....

This Rom by the way is awesome, been running it the last week or so and its really fast, clean and runs very smooth....good job Drod
[Fascinate Android Development] justin090435:
downlaoded it this morning, smooth and fast so far, i may be using this for a while until a good stable 2.2 rom is leaked. i love the gingerbread coloring. one this i noticed was when i flashed the kernal, it went really fast, i did not have voodoo before this but when i have installed voodoo in the past, it would take upwards of 20 mins to install.... just wondering if this is a new new voodoo or something......

ps. will post some screen shots in a minute

edit. for some reason voodoo was disabled by default...... kinda strange, but i have it enabled now and is currently running it.
[Fascinate Android Development] justin94:
BTW. I love the transition effects. I normally turn them off but this runs so smooth I just might keep it here for a while.
[Fascinate Android Development] kenhunt:
You don't have to have DL09, I ran the test build of this on DJ05 for a week till I flashed 09...no difference at all.
[Fascinate Android Development] drod2169:
change log up
[Fascinate Android Development] Damon1328:
i am currently on DJ05 running 1/21 adrenalyn's UV voodoo kernel, can i flash this kernel and ROM without any problems? thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] zeroxg4:
Yes.
[Fascinate Android Development] zachsx:
No Facebook: (
[Fascinate Android Development] obededom:
:p ? :p

a.) you don't have a facebook acct?

b.) you don't agree with facebook's privacy settings?

c.) the ROM doesn't have facebook sync (sns)?

d.) you don't know how to navigate into android market to download Angry Birds?

no flame, just loling :p
[Fascinate Android Development] zachsx:
This rom has no Facebook (sns) along with no Facebook in the market lol
[Fascinate Android Development] drod2169:
SNS isn't included, just for the sake of cleanliness. It's always available via rom manager, in sonofskywalker's section :)
[Fascinate Android Development] Powell730:
can anyone post a pic of the running services menu? I find that if i use superclean i have a lot more services running than if i use blackhole, would like to give this one a shot but also dont want a lot of unnecessary stuff running.
[Fascinate Android Development] Thrillhouse847:
This thing runs great. Super smooth and very quick. Keep up the good work and thanks.
[Fascinate Android Development] upsidedownaaron:
it seems that i am again burning thru battery at an alarming rate again. i came from superclean .7 if that helps. but battery has been an issue since day one. this build is super fast and smooth with a very nice looking ui, but again the battery seems to suffer for it.
[Fascinate Android Development] voghan:
Try wiping your battery stats in the recovery menu. This normally helps when flashing roms.
[Fascinate Android Development] jason1332:
Great, great rom. The best yet, no offense to JT's super clean ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] Irish Cream:
Been testing this for drod from pretty much day one... this is BY FAR, the best build. It is SUPER snappy and really clean... ADW EX over top is pretty damn slick!!!

DONATE TO THIS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!
[Fascinate Android Development] marquicus:
nice!, day 1

thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
I was really hoping to not have to flash anything else before froyo... But I guess I'll give this a go. :) looks too good to not try.

Edit: A mirror might be helpful. The rom is claiming 28 minutes to dl. lol
[Fascinate Android Development] glenniosaurus:
don't see the gingerbread keyboard in settings just swype, and the old android keyboard.
[Fascinate Android Development] drod2169:
alright. must not be installing correctly, then. its the script from my dx rom, so must not be compatible :)

if you open root explorer, there should be a folder called /data/rubiks/app, in there, you'll see gbkb.apk

or you can search here on xda for it.
[Fascinate Android Development] Powell730:
Just fyi, once I flashed this I lost mms.. Had to install the mms from rom manager and it works like a charm now. Other than that great rom! I'll be sticking with this till froyo!

EDIT:

Also in the op he stated you would have call issues on dl09 kernel. I'm running voodoo 5 with sound on dl09 and the only change I made is I simply flashed my own theme with the theme fix and the aosp unlock screen fix for dl09 and I haven't had any issues.
[Fascinate Android Development] Powell730:
In case anyone is curious about what services run:

Obviously some of that is mine software, my point being that it's very "clean" :)

RubikS 1.7 - Voodoo 5 w/ Voodoo Sound!!
[Fascinate Android Development] baxtermedic:
holy hell this sucker is fast and smooth. On frakenkernel @ 1.2 ghz UV
[Fascinate Android Development] baxtermedic:
Just so you know, if you don't want FCs when you go into airplane mode you have to install TW launcher.
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Okay, this is crazy good stuffs.

Awesome job.

Edit: I did something wrong. Lol. I flashed midnight 1.1 DJ05 theme over this and followed it with the theme fix. FC hell. Got back just by clearing and reflashing this, but I'm thinking I should have flashed a different kernel than the one in the OP before the theme.

Confirmation would be great as I'm a bit too busy today to be playing much.

Again, great work!
[Fascinate Android Development] zeroxg4:
The SAME EXACT thing happened to me. I wiped data/cache before installing this ROM and everything went smoothly. I reinstalled all of my apps and everything was great. Later on in the day I decided I wanted to put the Midnight V1.1 theme back on my phone, and upon booting, I got a straight FC loop. Wiping cache after that didn't help either, I had to wipe everything and start over. No themes for me until I can get more clarity on how to avoid that issue. Other than that, this ROM is excellent and very smooth / fast. Great work!
[Fascinate Android Development] drod2169:
Themes should be fine, but they might require a data wipe. I had the same issue when I flashed GB theme over the stock theme (before I added the GB theme as stock)

It's a pretty annoying bug that I'm looking into.
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Next issue: I know there was talk about phone issues, but specifically I am seeing a problem with the proximity sensor. When i hold the phone away from my face to enter numbers at a prompt, the screen shuts off after about two seconds. Going to flash a different kernel and see if it persists...
[Fascinate Android Development] Teng0ku:
This is some smooth stuff, like butter
[Fascinate Android Development] tapout27:
I can confirm that Matted Blebread and Darkstar Final themes do not require a data wipe over this Rom...I have ran both over the last week with it and I just wipe cache before flashing theme...

I have ran almost every voodoo kernel with it as well with no issues and am currently running OTB test6 sv 1.3ghz voodoo and Matted Bluebread theme & theme fix with no issues
[Fascinate Android Development] drod2169:
Nice catch. I'm not working any more on Eclair Roms or 2.6.29 kernels because of the imminent froyo release. I've been working on froyo aosp bug fixes slowly but surely.

I just wanted to share this before the froyo leak :) I've had this done for ~2 weeks, and a fascinate rom since early december. Just been too lazy to release haha
[Fascinate Android Development] obededom:
I lost market.apk when I fixed perms.

anybody got a .zip?
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Np. Excited about the upcoming Froyo stuff. I did replace the Kernel with the 1/20 Voodoo 5 and the issue disappeared. Still keeping the Rom though, the included theme is slick on it's own. :)

Edit: No dice on the theming. lol. Did full wipe, flashed midnight 1.1, flashed DJ09 fix, entered continual looping of boot animation. Done fussing with it, for a minute at least. Just doesn't like that theme.
[Fascinate Android Development] duncan254:
Phone keeps shutting down at random using this rom w uv 1200 frankenkernel. I love this rom but may have to try a diff one. This requires a batt pull to get phone to boot up. Any sugg
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Have you tried a different kernel?
[Fascinate Android Development] duncan254:
No you think its the kernel rather than rom
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Only one way to find out....
[Fascinate Android Development] tapout27:
confirmed DarkMist v2 theme and theme fix also work without a wipe...
[Fascinate Android Development] upsidedownaaron:
i put on the adrynalyne kanged frankenkernel uv, and that seems to have fixed my battery issue. just running the plain rom as it is.

curious about themes tho.
[Fascinate Android Development] duncan254:
How do you guys do these theme fixes and stuff like the Guy talking about a couple posts up. Benefits?
[Fascinate Android Development] tapout27:
Matted Bluebread, DarkStar Final and DarkMyst v2 all are confirmed working over this Rom with theme fix and no wipe....i just wiped cache before flashing theme and theme fix....takes a few min to boot but works fine

theme fix(flash immed. after flashing DJ05 theme): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2056318/DL09_aosp_lock_theme_hax.zip it fixes the theme and allows the AOSP Android slider lockscreen instead of puzzle lockscreen
[Fascinate Android Development] karallam:
confirmed :)
[Fascinate Android Development] zeroxg4:
tried installing Facebook SNS but get an acore FC upon trying to sync. I always thought TW was necessary for FB Sync but was told otherwise. Guess I was right?
[Fascinate Android Development] zantopad:
Yes, that's because it isn't installed... Get the app from another rom or ROM manager if its out there? Use root explorer or adb to get the apk file into your system/app directory... I'm using backup assistant right now with this ROM...

BTW this ROM is very very well done, My favorite one that I'll be sticking with until Froyo
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Has anyone tried notta's NeonGT DJ09 on this yet?

Edit: Works like a charm. Pretty much a perfect match. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] spotmark:
I can't get enough of this ROM. I've been using it since v1.0, back in December, and each build just gets better, and better. I tried the new kernel, but I keep going back to your 12/15 1150 kernel. After re-installing it, last night, I ran a quadrant test, just for yuks, and came up with a 1962. Since a current other ROM, that is out there, isn't quite ready for prime time, I will stick with RubikS until we get a radio for it. Thanks, Drod.
[Fascinate Android Development] zeroxg4:
If you want the midnight theme, you can try doing what i did. I installed the neongt theme but hated the stock gps icon that stayed on there, so i flashed the new midnight v1.2 then the dl09 theme fix. I just wiped davlik and it worked, but i got the puzzle lock. I then flashed adrynalynes dl09 AOSP lock and presto, everything was awesome.
[Fascinate Android Development] bruteforce037:
Can you please point me in the right direction of Drod's 12/15 1150 kernel?

Thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
No dice, FC hell again. Lol
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
Do you need red clockwork for this? If installing voodoo five?
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Always work in red with voodoo enabled.
[Fascinate Android Development] burningembers:
Just installed this.

Loving it.

Thank you.
[Fascinate Android Development] zeroxg4:
ohhhh man. I'm really sorry. I was sure it had a good chance.. my bad
[Fascinate Android Development] bruteforce037:
I agree, one of the best out right now!
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Lol. No worries. This rom trumps having the theme by far. Hoping to see a Froyo version of both soon.
[Fascinate Android Development] gunnermike:
this a great rom. ive been running it for three days. thats like a year for most people. very debloated. cleaner than superclean! great job. thanks again.
[Fascinate Android Development] nader2013:
I love this ROM, my fascinate is running very nicely, fast and slick. Thanks so much.
[Fascinate Android Development] burningembers:
Spoke too soon...my Market (Vending.apk) doesn't want to work.

Same thing was happening for YouTube but a fix perms fixed it. But a fix perms and even a clean install wont get the market working. Any ideas?

It just shows up as com.android.vending and clicking on it crashes.
[Fascinate Android Development] el_bori1:
It was happening to me yesterday and I had to install the Market apk.
[Fascinate Android Development] burningembers:
Hmm, tried installing one and failed. Says Application not installed. Where'd you get the apk from?

Other than this though, this ROM still rocks :-)
[Fascinate Android Development] el_bori1:
Search Google for android market apk, i can't remember the page.
[Fascinate Android Development] burningembers:
I must be doing something wrong :(

I tried side-loading two different apk's, with no luck. I even tried making them into update.zip's, no go. I tried clean-installing the ROM again, no go.

I can get it working temporarily by deleting vending.apk from /system/app - rebooting, then dropping vending.apk back into /system/app. But then it stops working again after the next reboot.

:(
[Fascinate Android Development] Crashspeeder:
Does gapps include the market? I believe it does. If so, here's a link to gapps I found in one of the froyo threads http://rom.galaxysense.com/gapps/gapps/. Hopefully that's of use to you.
[Fascinate Android Development] burningembers:
Gave it a shot, it ended up breaking Voice/Talk/Market/Gmail. Haha.

I can reflash the ROM and Market works until the next reboot - I'll just stick with that for now.
[Fascinate Android Development] Crashspeeder:
I just flashed the rom this afternoon. It works great. I left out the kernel since I'm not sure if the one in the OP has voodoo sound. I'm getting 1600s in quadrant, not 1900 like another post showed earlier. My market works fine, though, even after reboot.
[Fascinate Android Development] spotmark:
I'm using an 1150 test kernel that Drod released on 12/15. I'm trying to locate the link for it, but not having much luck. Perhaps Drod still has it, and he can post it, or if he gives the ok, I will upload it, and post it.
[Fascinate Android Development] Crashspeeder:
It's not really that big a deal. Being from 12/15 I doubt that it has Voodoo Sound so I'll pass. This is really just a stopgap for me until FroYo anyway. I figured I'd try it since my Gmail push wasn't working and this rom seems to have fixed that. Thanks anyway.
[Fascinate Android Development] kenhunt:
Drod hasn't incorporated voodoo sound in any yet. I tried talking him into it and he didn't seem interested...
[Fascinate Android Development] Wrathos:
So I didn't have this problem before but when I flashed to this rom my phone started to be recognized as a CD drive instead.

anyone have this same problem? is this a problem with the kernel? currently running voodoo5.

edit: i'm also having the market app problem. I did acquire vending.apk because I thought i was missing it or something, and when i tried to drop it under system/app/ vending.apk already exists? can someone shed some light on this please?
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
Touchscreen freezes

Anyone notice that if you go into an app that you haven't used after install that the touch screen freezes for 10-15seconds and then will unfreeze itself?

I installed Rubiks over top of DL09 Superclean .4 without doing a data wipe and using Voodoo Kernel by 1000MHz, Adrynalyne's more aggressive undervolt settings. Anyone know if since I didn't due the data wipe, but did Clear the Cache, Delkvin(SP) and fixed errors if this would cause the issue? I could start over, I just didn't want to have to reinstall everything.
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
I had an issue where the market would force close when trying to dload or install something. So I uninstalled it, and installed the 2.2 version of the market and everything was good. I found an APK for it after searching through the Theme and App forums for the fascinate. If you need a link let me know.
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
*bump Need some help on this one before I do something stupid! ;)
[Atrix 4G General] Elite GunnerX:
Any one know if there the same? hardware wise? Like if I where to flash a US/at&t

based rom whould it run/work on a bell Atrix?

How does this work on other phones?
[Atrix 4G General] opensourcefan:
The only differences that I can foresee may be whether or not the FM radio, Tethering and Hotspot capabilities will be activated out of the box. I'm sure Bell's version will have all of it enabled.
[HTC Tornado] gsmsikar:
can we update our imate sp5m (tornado) to this Windows Phone 7 ?

is that compatible with this phone ?
[HTC Tornado] Hakim Rahman:
should not be forced because WM7 is not compatible for your device (HTC Tornado) and will only make it hard brick device ;)
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Short answer is simply: NO - Never. Look up the article in Wikipedia about Windows Mobile: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Phone_7 - especially the HW requirements at the bottom.

HW Requirements are so much above the level that the Tornado can offer, and this is for ALL areas (except the number of buttons) that only devices that can get close to that (e.g. the HD2) have a chance to see WM7.

The same is true for Android in most areas btw. Despite there are some efforts to port that OS to old WM phones, I have not seen (and do not expect as well) any serious results.

The Tornado is such a nice all-day phone with a form factor that neither WM7 nor Android devices offer (except the X10-mini) that it will stay with me quite some time until selection of small phones increases.
