Same here as far as Froyo is concerned. Patiently Waiting!
a2sd doesnt really work correctly. it works but after rebooting all the apps disappear. they install to ext partition correctly but the dont show up in the app drawer after rebooting. it has something to do with thememanager FC at the restart, I'd have to say. Plus, wifi and lwp dont work either.
after more research, it looks like the ext partition gets wiped after every reboot, lol. the apps are on ext part then reboot... and they disappear from the ext par. wow... never seen that one before. I have much faith in eugene though! he did root this phone plus has made some great roms. I'm sure he'll fix these issues tomorrow.
These roms are so much bigger then the G1 roms, takes longer to download. o:

This is awesomesauce thanks Eugene this is great at last apps2SD so that I can install all my games and apk ( i have over 1g of them lls)
So is partitioning the SD card absolutely necessary for apps2sd?

yeah its easy. the easiest way is to make a live cd of ubuntu (linux). run gparted program and create the partition on the sd card. its simple and takes 20 minutes including making live cd. just google it.
Wifi broke?
well not sure if it is just an on and off thing but my wifi fails to start
that's a known issue, also it seems that sync doesn't sync forever as eugene said he fixed it, but now i have to manually sync my email which defeats the purpose of getting it on my phone if i have to tell it to refresh manually. going back to SMR2
My apps2sd stay after reboot, my mail syncs automatically, reinstalled WiFi tether and it works perfectly. Thanks Eugene!

What type of partition are you using? Ext2, 3, or 4? What works perfectly after reinstalling wifi tehter? Wifi or just the tether program?
installed this, and I am not able to get the live background to work, or tethering for that matter.

if you are familiar with adb, reinstall wifi tether. check back with us and let us know whether wifi starts working or just the tether portion. I'm checking on A2SD as we speak...

I edited the Evolution_Font install zip so that it doesn't remove the odex files. I just installed this using Clockwork and it's working fine for me. I recommend making a nandroid before doing this though just in case and as always if you brick your phone don't blame me.
The original font pack came from the Evolution theme, I don't take any credit for this and if whoever did create it wants it taken down I have no problem doing so.

edit: Added the Default font if you want to switch back.
I flashed it but now for some reason I cant load my downloads in the market, prob unrelated but other than that fonts work just fine.
Ok after a reboot it works just fine now, wonder what that was?
The font is a lot smaller than the stock, but I like it. Like it gives it a cleaner look or something.
after running quadrant with that loaded, I am convinced it did something else, the screen just looks more crisp.

itd entirely possible there is some sort of server maintenance or something... when i installed app brain a month ago there just happened to be server issues that night.. i assumed it was the new software.. logical right?
im running some backup/restore tests now... takes a while...
I couldn't get anything to authorize or download from market... used nandroid backup and worked fine after...

my first phone blew up and I am on a replacement, running JT 1.2 voodoo and fonts still installed fine and no market error.

not completely related, but i figured since the OP knows of the themes the fonts originate from, would i be able to just install the Launcher pro that is themes in the bugless evolution rom? i basically want the widgets...
edit: so i decided to just make a nandroid and then see what happens.
worked just fine! the widgets and the font go nicely together!
Thanks now if we could get a flipfont apk port that would be great.
Love the font, but I too am getting a market error. Trying to install other apps and it FC's and then the apps are stuck "installing" can't cancel them out.
Flipped to wifi, same issue. Gonna shut it down, pop the battery and see if that does the trick.
EDIT: Yup, market still continues to crash even after a couple reboots and a battery pull. Why would this cause the install/market to crash?
which market apk are you using? the original one or the 2.2 version?
mine is working fine (i use the 2.2 market)
Using the updated version. As far as I recall.

no, i'm running it on the stock rom with root and voodoo
My setup Voodoo/oc'd kernel/aosp boot animations/deodexed Market 2.2 and have NO issues with this font whatsoever.
You did flash it through CWM correct?
I uninstalled the market update, went back in and downloaded the apps that were hung on install (as they were still showing "installing..." on the market page, even after a CWM restore) and it worked.
I can live without the new market until 2.2
I compiled this for someone at DroidForums and I figured I would post it here.
In order to complete all of these steps, you will need:
ROM Manager
Titanium Backup Pro
Root Explorer
SetCPU
Odin v1.3
A file manager like Astro to install the APKs.
SetCPU can be downloaded here for free: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
It can also be bought from the Market. The others also need to be purchased or downloaded.
In order to root, follow the instructions here: http://forum.androidcentral.com/verizon-fascinate-rooting-roms-hacks/33899-how-root.html
Here is a link for Mac users: http://forum.androidcentral.com/ver...s/34188-rooting-using-mac-video-tutorial.html
ClockworkMod Recovery Installation instructions are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942021 You can also flash the new recovery with Rom Manager, but for now, I recommend the recovery in the link.
At this point, you should be rooted with CWM Recovery. Now, it's time to install Froyo.
Follow the link here, and you will find Odin files for quickly installing EB01: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html
NOTE: You will need to wipe when you go from 2.1 to 2.2. Be sure to back up everything before the upgrade.
Now, you will need a rom. I would recommend SuperClean by Adrynalyne: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910921 It includes a kernel and there are Voodoo and NonVoodoo versions. This will remove all bloatware, including TouchWiz and Bing. However, the browser will still search with Bing. Then, use the themes sub-forum to find a theme.
You can use ROM Manager-Download-sonofskywalker3 to find all sorts of options. Stock apps, de-Binged browsers, new boot animations, widgets, etc. Anything you didn't want removed can be downloaded there.
If you need to return to stock, you'll need to use Odin. Ask any questions in this thread and I will do my best to answer them. You can also post a thread on XDA(make sure it's in the right section!), or visit the IRC at: webchat.freenode.net channel: #samsung-fascinate
I take no credit for anything here.
NOTE: ROOTING WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE.

I just deleted all these apps. Am i in trouble when froyo comes out?
It looks like wireless tether doesn't work for me, and I did delete 3G Mobile Hotspot, so maybe it makes sense to go slow at this before jumping in. I'm not having any problem connecting to wi-fi, though, so if that's all you want then maybe you'll be fine. I use backup assistant so I can't comment on what could happen if that's deleted.
Freezing/hiding apps seems to be the best way to make sure you aren't looking for backup apps somewhere...

Yes it is. That's why I recommend it. I also find it easier than moving them to the SD card with root explorer like a lot of people are doing, but to each his own.
EDIT: I tried Wireless Tether, and it started just fine. I didn't try connecting anything to it, but I know it at least starts. I can't tell if they blocked tethering or if deleting Mobile Hotspot affects it.

My iPod wouldn't connect either. I would try my computer, but I don't have a wireless card anymore since I moved the router up here and am wired into it. There's gotta be something to do. I played around with the channels and nothing worked.

Here's the system dump: http://forum.androidcentral.com/fascinate-roms-hacks/32839-fascinate-system-dump.html
I have removed [moved] both Backup Assistant and Mobile 3G Hotspot and I have no issues with Wireless Tether. Before assuming Mobile 3G Hotspot is the cause of your issues, try verifying Wireless Tether works for you beforehand. There was a thread dedicated to Wireless Tether not working by a senior member only to find out it was user error.
There's more than one way to move/remove apps and I'm sure we all can confirm deleting .apk files is NOT the best option. I've used Titanium Backup to freeze apps which I could not locate the .apk for, but I prefer moving the .apk files. This is because I've been in a force-close loop after moving a file and the only solution would be to move the file back and reboot the phone. This can be done via ADB. If you freeze an app and you get in a force-close loop you may not be able to use Titanium Backup's GUI to un-freeze an app.
I move to the SD card to free up space on the phone, which comes in handy if you're replacing stock apps from other places. Plus, it gives me an easy view of what to move to/from the /system/app folder if I need to put apps back when there is an OTA (or if someone asks me "what apps did you remove?")
Move/rename/freeze... pick your poison, but please don't delete.

Yup. If you delete, you have to handle the process of moving apps from the system dump. I don't think a factory reset would work, since the apps aren't there and it has nowhere to restore them from.
Just installed CMW and removed bloatware from these instructions, everything went great. Appreciate your time to do the write up.
I'm still interested in doing the lag fix, I did notice a difference with my phone. I ran it one week with it, and one week without and I've noticed a difference. Anyone else running it with all this setup?

The lag fix seems to have very mixed results. Some people say it has caused lag, some have trouble un-doing it, some notice no difference. So I haven't taken the risk. I also need the internal memory it takes away. I would consider it if it would fix those occasional stutters and freezes, and actually make a difference.

Hey Guys, just after the release of my old ROM, this is a new ROM which is based on Froyo(2.2). I used the Cyanogenmod rom as base and i havent changed a lots except for some minor changes and few additions. The followings features are included:
Features
======
Stock Android UI
Busy-box
Rooted
SuperUser
NANO Editor
As Stable as CM
New Boot Animation
Froyo (2.2.1)
myTouch Music
New Android Market (Check Screenshots)
New Gingerbread Stock Keyboard (Check Screenshot)
Both Launcher Pro And Stock Launcher Included
Some Other Stuff
Removed Stuff
==========
Torchlight From CM
FileManager From cm (Get something from market if you need, that filemanager really bugged me so decided to remove, try ES File Manager, it rocks)
CM Boot Animation
Some other crapware
As this mod is derived from CM, most of the things (I think all) work properly, including wifi, bluetooth and everything else. If anyone finds any bugs or something wrong with the rom, please post it below.
How to install
=========
First root your phone using this method or this method.
Then put the zip file in your sd card and go to clockwork recovery. Then just install the zip file as you would do with every other rom.
If you dont get what i am saying, check this.
This rom asks you which launcher to use in the first boot, check the "Make Default" button and select the launcher of your choice, either launcherpro or default stock froyo launcher. I recomment launcherpro as it is really smooth and has no lags at all (i am using the same). And BTW, if you plan on using stock launcher and no longer want launcherpro on ur system, simply go to manage apps in settings and remove launcherpro as usual (yes, you can remove it). I havent dared to remove the awesome cyanogenmod settings menu because of its cool features and lots of additional functionalities. And the cyanogenmod wallpapers are intact as well.
How to make it look like the one in screenshot
==============================
First choose launcherpro at first boot and make it default.
then go to launcherpro settings (press menu on launcher and choose preferences) and appearance and change the dock's look to froyo wide
Then go back to launcher and long press the screen, and choose wallpaper, and go to cyanogenmod wallpapers and choose the wallpaper as shown in the screenshot.
Then arrange the icons in the same way and you are ready to go.
Enjoy Gingerbread Keyboard And The New Android Market With Lots Of Improvements.
Please let me know if something does not work. THanks
Update 12/20/2010: New Update Coming Very Soon! With WiFi And Tethering Working + More Features And More Stuff
[I am not an android developer,just a simple guy [and a bit of java programmer] ]
I dont think Tmobile is going to give us Froyo within this Dec 15th as rumored by a lots of sites. But for now, lets stay happy with this rom and lets hope they will send the updates soon.
Download ROM
P.S. I can live without negative feedback. (<--Copied it from someone )
can i use headset control on this rom????????????????
OMG, i love this.
but the removal of some apps doesn't appeal to me.
Like file manager, Rom Manager, And the ability to wifi tether is gone.
I was able to wifi tether in the latest versions of CM, but it totally rids it of it in this rom.
Either than that, awesome rom.
Love the boot animation, keyboard, launcher. Keep up the good work. Hope to see more ROMs from you soon!

Wifi works - try reflashing it. Did you do a factory reset before flashing this rom? At minimum, clear your cache.
Using the headphones that came with this phone only works on the stock rom since it was a proprietary thing T Mobile did - why do people keep nagging about this issue?
Wifi tether isn't built into a rom. It a function but must be accesed by an .apk file. Download the latest wifi tether apk (2.0.5 rc1) and install it. BAM! wifi tethering in the palm of your hand.

There's a good Tethering apk in this forum somewhere. You might need to go back a few pages, but you'll find it. :]
ALSO, yo OP, could you please push the Torchlight back onto the ROM in a future release? Torch is always fantastic...
OK right now Im running a droid incredible, I got the daughter an iphone and her 4g lte is just sitting here. I want to use it. My phone is s-off rooted and am currently running cm10.1 . I also use titanium back up with root pro, what if anything can I bring to the new phone using tb(sms/mms or call log, apps, pics etc). Will my sd card that I use now have to be formatted or will it just match right up and run perfectly fine? Next thing is this one isn't activated yet and want to root it and stuff before I do activate in case things go wrong and I know it takes time to do it. If I want to run the cm 10.1 rom again on it does youtube, camera camcorder and all that stuff work and wireless tether also be hidden from verizon lol. What are the links to the s-off and rooting procedures so I can do this easily. I have allot more questions but will ask at a later time.
Thank you

OK right now Im running a droid incredible, I got the daughter an iphone and her 4g lte is just sitting here. I want to use it. My phone is s-off rooted and am currently running cm10.1 . I also use titanium back up with root pro, what if anything can I bring to the new phone using tb(sms/mms or call log, apps, pics etc). Will my sd card that I use now have to be formatted or will it just match right up and run perfectly fine? Next thing is this one isn't activated yet and want to root it and stuff before I do activate in case things go wrong and I know it takes time to do it. If I want to run the cm 10.1 rom again on it does youtube, camera camcorder and all that stuff work and wireless tether also be hidden from verizon lol. What are the links to the s-off and rooting procedures so I can do this easily. I have allot more questions but will ask at a later time.

I use G Cloud Backup to backup most things like SMS, Contacts, pics. (It doesn't do apps, but all the apps are tied to my google account and restore anyway)
As for rooting and S-OFF u can find all the info you need from this index thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2141322
on CM10.1 youtube works, camera works, camcorder works but isn't perfect when it comes to focusing. IDK about wireless tether.
will titanium work from the sd card being the inc and then moved to the 4g lte? I didn't know I could use google cloud for sms and stuff like that
And is S-off better than temp root? and I like the twrp recovery Im using now, I take it it works well with this phone too.

What I understand is titanium will see your backups no matter. S off is of course the best way to go if your comfortable. TWRP works and is officially supported. You could try the new app carbon to back up your data and re sync it to your new device. And it only takes a second to activate the inc4G cause of the sim card
It's not a glitch this isn't Wreck it Ralph

IDK about titanium, maybe someone with more experience will chime in. I'm just trying to help because I've seen you post a few times, and I know if it were me, I'd at least hope for a response lol.
When I say G Cloud Backup, I mean this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.genie9.gcloudbackup&hl=en
I use it to backup SMS, pics, call logs and some other stuff sometimes. Although I'm still not sure how it would work backing up on one device and restoring on another.
Sorry I couldn't be more help. If it were me, I'd probably just backup the most important stuff to dropbox or something and start fresh on a new phone. Like I said, I'm pretty sure the apps will restore once you login to your google account on the new phone. I've started fresh on this phone before and it gives you the option to restore (always on wi-fi of course so I don't eat up data downloading a bunch of apps). Although I don't think it keeps the app data, just re-downloads the apps associated with your google account.
OK I think the s-off is the way I will go. I am installing g cloud now for mms/sms basically if it works it works. twrp is my recovery of choice also. so now I need to find the links and directions to it all. Thank you guys for your responses.
Oh btw does anyone know if the tether (wireless) is still under the eyes like my og incredible is after I rooted it?
How do you guys update this phone rom? right now I using goomanager app and it has ota for my DINC?
I can also use swype typing right?
umm I only have windows vista 32-bit, so I take it can't do the s-off?

tethering is working fine for me on cm10.1 M-Snapshot build

Use a live CD for Ubuntu and run the procedure from there.

And the live cd will work even if I don't keep it on? what happens t the files from my phone that i downlaod to root it? Are the files linked on the livecd or on my regular desktop?

NO, when you run it you select try ubuntu alongside windows
doesn't install on your machine, but you can run it from the cd
Just download a "free" Windows 7 upgrade Lol

The files will disappear when you are done. They will download to and live on a virtual RAM disk. Booting from the Ubuntu Live CD and selecting "try" will not affect your installed OS at all. (unless of course you decide to mount that hard drive and erase/modify files on that drive)

I have been looking for one but haven't come across it!
I'm sure many of you are already using @kessaras great AOSCP Oreo Rom!
One small current issue is the ril-daemon sometimes needs to be stopped and started to make your sim card and cellular work properly. In the past, you could just reboot, or stop and start the daemon from the command line. But now you can just tap a button! That's right, just a simple, easy to use app that stops or starts the ril-daemon when you tap the buttons.
This app requires root permission!
This app is open source, licensed under the Apache 2.0, and you can check out the source code here:
https://github.com/alaskalinuxuser/app_ril_control
You can download the app here:
https://github.com/alaskalinuxuser/app_ril_control/blob/master/app/Ril_Control.apk
Get it on the Play Store!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alaskalinuxuser.rilcontrol
Reserved for Change log.
great tool ! Thank you ! it will make easier this ril restart for everyone
Thank you very much, this is very useful!
I'm using it quite often. It's very useful for me. Thank you so much!

No, I didn't try this app. Color and so on is fine for me.
But I had to reboot very often due to missing sim detection and I'm happy that I don't need to do it anymore.
This will surely save folks the hassle of using the Terminal to restart the Radio Interface Layer.

Just wondering if the change is supposed to be instant when I press the button. I have a newly unlocked H812 and it takes sometime ten tries to get it to work
Hey it is possible to add a function like automatic restart the ril-daemon with different time settings?
Like restart it ervery 24 or 15 hours.
I have problems with my G4 on LOS 14 Roms the ril stop working after different hours.
Hey @AlaskaLinuxUser I am curious, can this be used for newer ROMs? I am using LineageOS 15.1 and experience mobile data drop off all the time. I would like to use this app (Google Play pulled the app, I used your direct download link) to see if it would help.
Any issues doing this?

Yes, I was using it on aoscp Oreo, so it should work on 15.1. :good:
Yes, Google Play is pulling a lot of my apps. Root apps and apps for 32 bit phones are harder to keep on the Play store.

Thanks for the quick response! I am on a Samsung Note 4 with custom ROM based on Android 8.1, so I wasn't sure if this was specific to any make or operating system.

It should work. It may need busybox or toybox installed, which were on the original ROM I built this for.... Of course, root is required.
Let me know how it turns out.

Hmm, I don't want to get in over my ski-tips here.
I am new to rooting. I was tired of an older phone with a poorly performing operating system, so I travelled down this road to revitalizing my phone - without spending over a thousand dollars for a new one.
I do not know what busybox or toybox is, or if it is incorporated into this LineageOS operating system v15.1 for the Samsung SM-N910V.
I do have root, managed by Magisk Manager v17.3, and use TWRP v1.21 build 34 for recovery.
I do not have a recent backup or anything like that, as I am a noob and use this phone as a daily driver. I don't want to really screw anything up by installing this app. Do you think there could be incompatibilities that could cause issues? I am trying to avoid continually backing up all of my data and files to my computer, as it takes forever. (yeah, I realize that developing new stuff is a gamble, but I am trying to find stable things already built )
The only issue with this ROM is RIL instability when switching towers, and going into buildings that forces the data connection to go from LTE to 3G, and that is when I lose data connection. I have to restart the phone every time, and I end up having to do this a lot while driving and travelling for work.
What are your thoughts?

This app will not cause you any trouble. It will either work, or will not work, but will have no detrimental affect on your phone or files. I'd recommend you give it a try. But it is always up to you.

I took the leap, and while out and about today I installed RIL Control. And guess what, it worked! I was able to kick the data connection in the butt and it reconnected.
However, I have a big problem now. I got home, and turned on wifi, and it doesn't work now. The toggle switch moves to on, and then right back to off. I cannot get the wifi to turn on! I restarted the phone, and it still won't turn on. Bluetooth works just fine.
So, now what happened? How do I get wifi to work again? Honestly, I need wifi more than data connection at this point.

Odd. The commands in the app only stop/start ril-daemon, which has nothing to do with WiFi. WiFi is wpa-supp. So I'm not sure if that is connected to my app. However, if that is the only thing you installed/changed, then I guess that would have to be it.
I'm guessing restarting the phone didn't work? :fingers-crossed:
You could always uninstall my app. But if that doesn't work, I guess you would have to load a backup of your phone. I just don't see how my app is affecting the WiFi.

Thanks for the help.
Correct, installing and using your app is the only change I have made, and I have never had a wifi issue in the month or so that I have been running this custom ROM.
Restarting the phone 4 times did not work. I may have panicked haha.
I did boot into TWRP and wipe the Dalvik cache.. and whala, I booted back up and the wifi worked.
I'm now afraid to try your app again when I am out and about, but maybe I should to see if this same condition happens again? What do you think?

Well, if you have a good backup, and since wiping dalvik and cache worked before, it might be worth a try. Was the WiFi on when you used my app? As always, if you are worried about it, you should play it safe. :good:
