Kiran and teezle: sorry for the delay, here's the link to the unmodded phone app:

www.androiddoes.net/~sonofskywalker3/Fascinate/App/StockPhone.zip

let me know if it doesn't work, don't have my fascinate with me to test it.

chefthomas: try a higher voltage kernel or use setcpu to set the min to 200mhz. If it keeps happening see if you can get me a logcat

minho422: First download a second launcher like ADW, then using adb or root explorer (or another file manager) delete the com.fede.launcher.apk from /system/app and /data/app. Then download Launcherpro Plus from the market, and using the same file manager or adb move it from /data/app to /system/app. Then even if you do a /data wipe you'll still have launcherpro plus installed as your default launcher. let me know if you have questions or need help.

I set it on 200 as the lowest. What scaling do you recommend? Ondemand?

With autosync and backup off, my system downloads about 1MB per hour, so battery life is sucky. I'm losing approx 6% an hour in NYC
[Fascinate Android Development] neh4pres:
Really? What causes this?

[Fascinate Android Development] eriscentro:
It's apparently system and OS
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Yeah, AFAIK the Ondemand is the best setting for the Fascinate.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
In the battery stats what does it show is draining the batter?
[Fascinate Android Development] eriscentro:
Usually it's display then android system then android OS. Currently, it's display, cell standby and then system and os. System = dl'd 500KB in 1 hour (which is much lower than usual) and OS is 610KB (also much lower than usual). Autosync is turned off, and the only app that gets notifications in the background is K9 mail. I use K9 because I need my mail and with K9 I can turn off autosync in settings, but have it still check for mail. W/ autosync on, and the only thing being synced under google is calendar, contacts, and gmail, I can go over 2MB's in an hour, at idle.

Everything is working great for 4.4, except hide clock, hide am/pm, and long press search key...do you think you can fix those?

Stock phone app crashing when the voicemail button is pressed

Stock phone app is stopped unexpectedly when the voice mail button is pressed. If you can please fix the button or please post the google voice mapped phone app.

I flashed the radio and modem from you link. I hope I didn't do anything wrong.

Thank You
[Fascinate Android Development] minho422:
Thank you for the reply! I already had ec01 radio installed, and it has been working before but now I'm missing quite a few international calls and texts...however I'm getting incredible battery life so I'm happy for most.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
eriscentro: may want to try a different kernel. I had really bad battery life with the first few ec10 source built kernels. try an ED01 source built kernel, see if that helps.

jspidah: Thanks for the tips, I noticed the long press search and I'm going to be releasing a patched version soon. I'll look for the hide clock/am/pm fix too.

420fan: That's a new one to me. Are you using the Facebook app off the market?

Kiran_tp: The stock phone app has the Voicemail button mapped to the stock Visual Voicemail app, that's how it is on a normal fascinate. If you need a link to the Visual Voicemail app it's:

www.androiddoes.net/~sonofskywalker3/Fascinate/App/VVM.zip

If you want the Gvoice modded dialer just reflash the ROM.

Everyone: I know it's exciting that ED01 is out, and I am working on an update, but I ask for your patience because I'm also working on my first private beta for Blackhole Thunderbolt, so it may take a while. I'm comparing versions right now to see how different it is from EC01. I'm betting very little, but whatever updates there may be I'll incorporate them.
[Fascinate Android Development] eriscentro:

I have the facebook app off of market, but even more interesting, when I am in contacts, and try to add an account. It doesn't have a facebook account show up, but when I try to add it, it says i can only use one of these accounts. Strange. I have been a flash a holic, so I'm not sure what is going on.
[Fascinate Android Development] Craleb:
Thanks!

This rom is awesome!. Thank you!! I flashed it straight from sc 2.9.2 and it worked like a charm!
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Glad to hear it. More to come in the next few weeks.
[Fascinate Android Development] TheShadowMan:
I've been searching but haven't really found an answer so here it goes, is there a voodoo that can be used with this? Which one?
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Any Touchwiz Voodoo kernel is compatible with this Rom. I have tested with the OTB kernels and Adrynalyn's latest and it runs very smooth.
[Fascinate Android Development] avhokie:
sonofskywalker, I'm guessing you're done with the Fascinate. Thanks again for all of your work. I'm still running Blackhole 4.4 and I hope to use your ROMs on another phone (Galaxy S II? :)) in the future!
[Fascinate Android Development] kidserious:
SOS3 has previously stated that if something new comes out for the fascinate that he would give it the blackhole touch. So, for instance, if we get a GB leak, we will see a blackhole GB version. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] DoobiHowserMD:
He tweeted yesterday that he has not forgotten about us and a Blackhole update for fascinate is coming soon!!
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Thanks for the posts guys, I am indeed still working on the fascinate. I'm finally releasing my GB rom for Thunderbolt today, which frees up some of my spare time to work on the fascinate, so I've started work on Blackhole 4.5. It will be a fairly minor update at first, integrating some of the enhancements from the community rom, the latest Sbrissen mods (that guy is a machine!) and most importantly: edify support. Over the next few weeks I'll be slowly adding back all of the options Blackhole used to have in Rom Manager, themes, kernels, apps, mods, addons, etc. but they'll all work with Clockworkmod 3.x for the fascinate. And some day if I ever find the time I still plan on creating a Blackhole option in the Android Customization Suite so that you guys can create a single flashable rom file from your computer and keep it on your sdcard, in case you ever want to flash back to your favorite customized build.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Well I've got the Standalone version of Blackhole Facinate 4.5 ready to go, but I'm working on the Rom Manager version and it's not going well. So far I've been unable to get a Rom Manager/Clockworkmod Recovery combination that actually works. I can flash fine if I use the 3-button startup to get to recovery, but if I use Rom Manager to reboot recovery, or try to flash anything from Rom manager, even the same files, it fails.

Has anyone succesfully been able to get Rom Manager to work with an ED01 rom, and if so please let me know which version of Rom manager, and which recovery you flashed.

The Standalone version will be available on Sunday afternoon to the public, I'll post it here then, but for those of you with early access, you will be able to get it at around 1pm today, once I do some final testing.
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
Last I knew rom manager no longer supported the Fascinate. Which is why the devs here have had to come up with their own versions of clockworkmod recovery. Everyone here in the forums has been advised to avoid rom manager as it does not work for the Fascinate at this time.
[Fascinate Android Development] skynet11:
You might want to simply put your standalone and addons as separate zip files in your OP, like you see in the Evil Fascination ROM thread. Plus, as for the kernels and themes (provided some themers make them for Blackhole 4.5), you could simply link to their threads and not have to worry about the bandwidth :cool:
[Fascinate Android Development] yutzyscott:
Is it possible to use an ED01 modem with 4.4 I'm currently using EC01 but, I have below par reception.
[Fascinate Android Development] yutzyscott:
The ext4 formatter tool is awesome. I have never been able to format my phone properly when installing roms, so my phone was getting buggy and things were malfunctioning left and right. I used the ext4 formatter and that wiped and fully converted me to the android native ext4 file system. Then I odin flashed the EC01 modem. Then I flashed the newest voodoo kernel and then reflashed 4.4 after all was done I restored apps using titanium and now my phone is working better than ever. Blackhole is now able to function the way it was intended. I totally recommend everyone use that formatter. you must use a voodo kernel but you must NOT enable the lagfix. Once your file system is converted by the formatter you can flash any rom and any rom will run much smoother than it did with or without the lagfix before the formatter tool. Im getting 1700 on quadrant without overclocking. You can find formatter here and you can use it anytime you want to do a complete wipe before flashing or reflashing a rom. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1090127

Edit:This tricks your voodoo kernel into thinking the lagfix is enabled. The lagfix converts your system and data partitions to ext4. This converts all of your partitions allowing everything to run much smoother. Since the kernel is detecting ext4 in your system and data it thinks its because lagfix is active. To wipe phone after using this the first time (such as you would when switching roms for a clean install) you must use the "rfs format utility" (also in the linked thread) then restart phone and let voodoo go through the conversion process. When you get back to recovery flash the "ext4 format utility" then flash whatever rom or voodoo variation you want. If you do not revert back to "rfs" first then you will get stuck on the samsung screen after flashing your new rom. This must also be done when restoring nandroid backups.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Thanks a lot for this update, I'll have to give it a shot, and thanks everyone for the info on Rom Manager. Guess I'll have to just bite the bullet and change over to ACS for the Fascinate totally. I'll do that for 5.0, and probably switch to a ED04 base. Anyone have thoughts on that? I don't run the fascinate anymore (my wife just plays a lot of bubble buster on it mostly) so are there any advantages/disadvantages of ED01 vs ED04?
[Fascinate Android Development] skynet11:
I've had GPS problems with both ED03 and ED04, so personally I would recommend ED01.

[Fascinate Android Development] tfitzger:
I love this ROM but my texts aren't working. I can text others and it just shows up blank on their phone, nothing in the message. Not sure how I did this, but I also just came from Com Rom 3 or whatever. I flashed to the orange clockwork mod recovery to install this rom and it worked flawlessly but my texts not working is not a good thing. Should anyone have any clues as to where I should start and try to fix this issue? Thank you so much,

Taylor

EDIT: I flashed back to stock rom and now SMS works... Have to re-root and everything to get back to being cool again, dangit...
[Fascinate Android Development] yutzyscott:
Dont use orange, use any color but. Also try ext4 formatter from a couple posts up since your restarting anyway. In the future use that tool instead of flashing to stock.
[Fascinate Android Development] yutzyscott:

[Fascinate Android Development] jdkzombie:
love to try this, ive always had fun with Blackhole ROMS, but will it work if i am on ED05 baseband? hey SoS, gotz any screenshots of this ROM? didnt see any in any posts...
[Fascinate Android Development] mgrimmenator:
dude, this is waaaaay old. this is from before ED05 was even out. I don't think you would want to go backwards, look for an ed05 rom or comm rom, ef3.6 or something along those lines.
[Fascinate Android Development] yutzyscott:
I went from this rom to jt's vanilla gingerbread. I must say until sonofskywalker gets time to do a gingerbread rom on the ed05 that vanilla gingerbread is the best. Its super fast and smooth. Also there is no trace of the touchwiz interface
[Fascinate Android Development] Joshuaboyzn:

I'm sorry but what kind of service issues are you seeing? Others have said there are service issues as well but I don't understand what it refers to.
[Fascinate Android Development] Joshuaboyzn:
Well, it would jump between 0 and -100db every few seconds, so I couldn't even try *228. I'm trying to reflash after I odined to stock, so we'll see if it persists or not.

Edit: I got it to boot and I had service again, but then when I went back to CWM restore my data I got a bootloop. :/ I'm calling it quits for now.

I loved the 2.1 Blackhole roms and now I am a 2.2 fan. This latest iteration works great and battery life is very good and it has yet to have any conditioning.

[Fascinate Android Development] yutzyscott:
I think I have this service or signal strength issue figured out. Unfortunatley I cannot fix this on my own all I can do is provide you with a half fix. It seems that the framework.res from the revolution theme and other nitsuj's themes is what is causing this issue. The solution as I see it it to leave this rom stock themed, use a different devs theme (whether or not this carries over on other devs themes or not is unfounded so some feed back from someone who tries it would be good), or use the nitsuj's theme of choice then flash this "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=954468" which will replace just the framework.res but leave the rest of the theme such as the dialer and settings menu and icons. Please try this and let me know how it works for you.

My phone thinks its smarter than me
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I've been running it with the eb16 dummy tether kernel for 2-3 days and it runs great for me.

Thanks for this great summation of the current issues with Clockwork 3.0. I'm working on a way to flash back to pre 3.0 recovery and still have rom manager think you're on 3.0, but so far no matter what recovery I flash, to the perma recovery, rom manager just can't get into it's "recovery-update.zip" temp recovery... ugh.

This is the first I've heard of service issues, havent had any problems myself, or had any reports from the VIP's who got it early, but I've only used the stock theme so far. I'm thinking the explanation below is a good one, and i'll be giving it a shot today, and making sure there's not something in my ROM that's not working right with these themes. Don't want to blame Nitsuj if there's something I did wrong, his themes are great.

Check out the summary post quoted a little earlier by yutzyscott, basically download through rom manager, cancel when it tries to flash, and boot into red recovery manually and flash each file, then reboot after their all flashed.

Thanks for the solid research and notice, I'll try to look into this today.
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
A quick look makes it seem like the bulk of Nitsuj's themes use sbrissen's old 5 lock mod, which may be having issues with adrynalyn's modified settings.apk, which I integrated into this version of blackhole, the 6 lock mod, which is the one yutzyscott linked to two posts above is built to be compatible with that modded settings.apk, so flashing it over Nitsuj's themes should correct any issues that result from an incompatibility between those two files, and still leave the mods intact. I'll do more testing when I have time, but I should be able to easily integrate the 6 lock mod with Nit's themes, if that proves to correct the issues.

About the 'stay tuned for a new way to build your own ROM' - are you setting up an online ROM kitchen like the one Doc set up for the Vibrant and Captivate?

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Yeah, I'll go ahead and spill. I'm working on dumping rom manager until koush get's his act together, so I'll be releasing future versions of Blackhole via the Android Customization Suite. Once all the bugs are worked out you'll be able to pick the base rom, pick your addons, and the ACS will download and zip it all into one convenient flashable package, and it includes clockwork 3.0 capability. Check out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=894794 for details and download.

And you may see some stuff pop up before the release announcement, if you do, flash at your own risk, It'll have to go live for testing purposes, but I won't guarantee it'll work until I've fully tested it.
[Fascinate Android Development] soba49:
My little project today was making an Odin flash that installed a vanilla 0.9.3 w/ gapps, with modem, kernel, Rom Manager, data wipes, no voodoo, and most importantly a clean red recovery. Everything installed and ran correctly, so I popped open Rom Manager to install blackhole resurrection. I included an extra data wipe, just to be safe. Unfortunately, I wound up in a FC mess, which I just cleared with a nandroid.

I'd like to finish my little project. Vanilla's small size makes it perfect for helping people upgrade to 2.2 (the whole thing zips down to 142 MB). However, I haven't figured out what I might be doing wrong, or anything else I can do.

Has anyone else had any issues going from vanilla->blackhole via rom manager?

Yeah, I had this happen to me the other day on EB01 SC 2.9, it missed my work calling me about 5 times in a row and damn near got me in a lot of trouble. Not sure what could be causing this, could be Verizon's network for all I know, but I am about to just go full stock as my work is 100% on call and I cannot be missing calls like that.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Wow. That looks awesome. If you need help testing it, PM me. I can't believe we're all not using it. Clockwork 3.0 compatible and none of the Koush BS? Seems a no-brainer to me, but I am most likely missing some political issues. Never could get the hang of politics...
[Fascinate Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I honestly haven't even tried vanilla in a while. If you can link me to your odin file I'd love to mess around with it and help you out. It would certainly be for the best to be able to switch between all available roms easily.

Yeah, I'll be sure to let you know once it's ready for testing. I personally think the reason most people don't use anything is most other roms are prepackaged.
