why is the update Gingerbread retrograding our kernal? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why are going backwards from ED04 to EC09 in order to update/upgrade from Froyo to Gingerbread? After 3 weeks of reading, NOBODY has managed to answer that with any reasonable certainty.

version are based upon build date..ie ED04 is april 4, ec09 is march 9...samsung works on updates for each os revision at the same time
ie dl30 was leaked froyo, yet newest eclair was ea28...
i thought this was common knowledge by now

Is it OK to Odin a radio on cm7 since the file system etc. is different?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App

The same thing happened with Froyo and Eclair as well: Froyo leak DL30 (December) was developed a month before Eclair update EA28 (January). The only difference this time is that EC09 didn't leak as quickly.

I have the same question, I've gone through 5 installs from Odin stock to cm7 trying to flash the modem just to see if it will..... and so far I have had no success while on cm7. I assume you can not Odin the modem while running cm7, you must update to it before flashing cm.
I could be wrong, but my experience tells me I'm not. FWIW

I know, but I like Kaos' work on the Eris and wasn't planning on flashing unitll his next update just wondering if there was any special flashing method for it. Fascinate seems to be a bit more difficult than the eris is

You need a voodoo kernal and make a backup.

Removing kaosinate might get a bit tricky though. I had to odin back to di01 and start over. Your mileage may vary of course.

Hey
Instead of going all the way back to dl01 why not just flash eb01 with odin from here... http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html
By the way, kaoscinate is an awsome rom is you can live without sensuous, wifi, and bluetooth.

Is it safe to Odin from 2.2 back to 2.1

I used the search and couldn't find a clear answer to my question which is why I decided to ask. If the vibrant is updated to official 2.2 is it safe to just use odin to go back to official 2.1 or not? I am wondering this because I'm thinking of getting an extra vibrant of of ebay but most have already been updated to 2.2 which requires a different method to achieve root access and since I have all the necessary files for rooting and moding from 2.1 I just wanted to know.

i dont see why not...
Yes, you can odin back to stock from any ver. That is actually what everyone does when they run into trouble in order to start over and fresh. Also, you can easily root 2.2 now, you don't have to waste 15-20 min.

I've been searching threads for rooting 2.2 but haven't found one as simple as the update.zip file I used to root my vibrant and family members vibrants as well. Could you at least give me the name of the app or link to the thread you are referring to? That would be very much appreciated. But if I do get a used phone I think using Odin to get back to ji6 at least would be a good thing to do anyway since you never know what could have been done to the phone by prior users. I haven't searched for odin files for 2.2, but if they are available and rooting it is as simple as you say I guess that would be an option as well.

[Q] 4/21 An official Fascinate 2.2 update ota?

Hi yall, so I just found out that verizon is pushing out an official froyo build ota on the 21st, tomorrow. But the thing is, My phone is already running under DL30 rom rooted and prefering not to install the new update. Not that I don't want to experience a new froyo, it's just because I'm too lazy to go back all the way to 2.1 then de-root the phone........ ehhhhhh........ Now my question is, is there a way for me to disable the automatic update? p.s.Last time when verizon pushed out an update ota, my phone would just constantly turn on and off) Thank you guys!
If you're on DL30 I doubt you'd be able to receive the ota even if you wanted to.
And, in the future, please post your questions in the Q&A section.
Sent from my Samsung Fascinate running CM7, bro.
are there any differences between the "official" froyo and the froyo we have all been using previously (I do know it has been mes source..just wondering if its worth moving to the official upgrade).
Thanks.
Adryn has posted a debinged version of the new ed01 official release in the dev section.

Meh, from what I have tested for adryn and others the mes source stuff handles the same, at least kernel wise. The rom ec01 leak seemed to run pretty well, I'm fixing to flash ED01 and try it

[ROM][04.20.11] Stock ED01/Debloated Debinged ED01

Hey folks,
I put this together earlier. Seems to work ok. Fully bloated, but deodexed and zpaligned ED01.
It contains busybox, and has been rooted.
Does not contain recovery, kernel, or radio. Those you must supply. Chances are, EC01 radio works just as well as the ED01 radio.
Ammend only at this time! This means use CWR 2.5.x.
http://adrynalyne.grdlock.net/bamf/roms/ed01_stock.zip
This one is a bit better. Once again, no recovery, kernel, or radio.
Debloated/Debinged (even browser and long press search)/Deodexed/Zipaligned/latest Maps, Gmail, Market, Voice Search. HAS NOT BEEN TESTED YET.
http://www.multiupload.com/BKHF5DKJ18
You work fast. Thanks a bunch.
Downloading debloated version now... I will test it and let you know if any issues come up... fyi, I'm running jt's latest voodoo kernel and (obviously) EC01 radio... thanks for your hard work

What would be the best way to go about rooting the OTA that I accepted? Lol
Initial boot good (wiped Davlik and cache, but not data), launched XDA premium 1.1 no problem, let's see how it does with Nitro's Honeycomb theme with the transparent dialer and the themed keyboard ...

Debloated version installed, theme over it. Good stuff.

Personally I like using the ADB method
What OTA did you accept?
Links removed: I just saw that ED01 OTA is being pushed out. I'd wait until someone more knowledgeable comes along or try posting this in one of the ED01 threads that are popping up quickly.
Nitro's honeycomb theme works as well... so far so good...

Hi adrynalyne,
Can you share what are kind of ROM, recovery, kernel, and radio you using on your phone? And the link to download them.
Thanks
Debloated/debinged with a touch of blur. Great job man. Really appreciate all the work you put into our phone.
Currently running EB01 stock, EC10 voodoo, and EC01 radio.
Can i just flash this rom after wiping cache & dalvik? or do I need to turn off voodoo, etc? Rom doesn't contain kernel, etc so I think I'd be ok?
hhmmmm shuold i do an ota then this? to get the readio and kernals?
doe sit block the tether tracker?

I only wiped dalvik and cache. Flashed over EC01 rom and radio with voodoo kernel. Not a single problem.
Is there a benefit to the new radio? If not I will just hang tight for the community project.

[Q] Gingerbread update for Fascinate

When we see a leaked ROM in the forums, is this a reliable indicator that an OTA update is forthcoming? (e.g. Gingerbread for Fascinate)
At some point in the future, yes. Soon? Probably not, especially given the number of bugs in the leak
They hosed the ota all together im on eclaire and I cant update unless its by flashing

The OTA is not hosed, I just used it 20 minutes ago to simply test your theory, needed to re-stock anyways. You sir, are either grossly misinformed, or just a weird troll. Them taking OTA out period makes no sense. Why the hell would they do that? SO that THOUSANDS of people would POUR into Verizon stores to get an update (Like you claimed in your thread)? No. Retarded. Next case.
