Seems smooth so far. Anyone know a good app for debloating? I used one a while back that uninstalled it, but kept a backup, then you could go in a wipe from the backup if you like.
Titianium Backup
Or bloat freezer
I am using Bloat freezer and frooze them
On the other thread in the Dev section a couple of people on ED05 are having calls not ring and show a voicemail notification even though there was no voicemail left. Makes me glad I waited before flashing it, but then I haven't had many missed calls on ED04. I think I've had two and they were during a time when I was in an area with almost nonexistent signal.

If your rooted just delete the files you don't want using Root Explorer, thats what I did.

The ones that I read
They only flashed the Radio That were still Missing Calls not the full Package
So that means the problem was not just in the Radio But also in the Kernel
I feel this is the best Stock OS that VZW & Samsung have for this Phone
one of the snappiest STOCK i have ever used.
no missed calls whatsoever , been using it for three days ;P
everything is working great.
Any tests with the GPS done?
I really hope this sticks but this fixed my GPS issue, full stock no gps aids, full just google maps and GPS!
Just wondeing how this update is working for everyone now that it is Offical
Is the radio alone available for flashing? Or do i need to flash the whole package?

I have the full ed05 odin package installed. I have had one voice mail w/ no missed call notification. It happened when I was passing a cell tower with full signal. Not to worried about it tho. Gps is a lot better than previous versions, and the phone is. A lot smoother now. I would say the full ed05 pacakage is a must for people wanting to stick with the stock rom!

I replied you in other thread... you flashed custom froyo ED01 kernel so you are no longer on full ED05 ROM/kernel and that's probably why you had missed call.

Yes i also agree , Ed05 modem alone is useless,
the missed call issue in earlier FROYO builds must have been ( most prolly ) due to the Kernel or may be a bug i the basic framework of the Rom.
so anyone wanting to get rid of the missed call issue should in fact flash the whole Ed05 package
later on you can flash any other modem, like i tried Ec09, worked good i must say, gave me slightly better data speed .
all in all i must say Vzn has for the first time done some good as far as the fassy is concerned, Ed05 is a great setup and i am loving it .
Thanks to pentafive for uploading the awesome LEAK and for the first time thankies to Vzn as well

I did flash the full ed05 package... Although in order to keep cwm and root I had to flash the modified stock kernal.tar. Here is what my phone shows
Hardware version: I500.04
Firmware version: 2.2.2
Baseband version: S:i500.04 V.ED05
Kernal version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: SCH-I500.ED05
Edit* I went ahead and reflashed the ed05 package. After flashing I let it boot up, checked the kernal version and its the exact same as posted above? Anyway I flashed the cwm all.tar but not the stock kernal.tar, then I 3 finger salute to recovery, installed the su 2.3.6.x.zip and rebooted. After booting back up and verifying root, booted back into cwm and restored nandroid backup. I guess there was no need for the modified stock kernal for what Im doing because everything works the same. I was under the impression that the modified stock kernal needed to be flashed in order to keep the stock recovery from replacing cwm, but that was not the case in my situation.

Yeah saw that too. Went in their IRC and asked but the ppl who were on told me it would only work with I9000 and the Captivate-i897.
I'm in the process of getting in touch with Darky to see which is true haha. If it does indeed support everything now, there will be a special installation method for Vibrants.
Go ahead and flash it...your problem not mine ;-),I flashed it and paid the price,it will not run on U.S. models....it will wipe your phone of everything,so be sure to back up everything on your pc as I did luckily.
It wont damage your phone or anything but make sure your near your comp unlike when I flashed it lol becuz it will wipe all....I had 3 other roms to flash back to on my phone but like I said,it litteraly wiped everything

It litterally will wipe everything,all folders and all info. Im not trying to be against his rom cuz I sure would like to run it,but it was not compatible to my sgh-t959 by any means.

hmm i pm'd him and he said to get the darky app
or something like that?
I was on their IRC this past day getting HOW to install his ROM.
Yes, it WILL work on a Vibrant but it will have a major BUG. The bug is the same as jellette/Heathen's Ragnarok 2.2.1 port that he tried a month ago. The phone will restart when it reaches a certain network strength value. I'm talking to jellete now to see if there is a fix for that but I don't think so as of RIGHT now.
If you wanna flash it though:
You need two things before you flash.
ENSURE you are on a 2.2 Froyo ROM (or 2.2.1 if you can get one). You will need the modem and kernel from the current ROM. Ensure the Kernel is i9000 based. This means you will need to use Morfic's DoW 1.4 or Ttabbal's Dragon 3.6.
Get the Darky's ROM App configurator from the market.
Get the Darky's 9.3 beta 1 ROM and copy it to your phone.
Using the app, uncheck flash kernel and modem. You do NOT want the flash to flash the i9000 kernel and modem that comes with the rom. You want your old ones.
Reboot into clockwork, flash the modified Darky ROM that DOES NOT include a kernel and modem.
Reboot.
NOTE: The Rom WILL WIPE your phone. You've been warned. Back up EVERYTHING and anything that may be of value to you and have ODIN ready in case anything goes wrong.
it seems too complicated, i'm a fan of darkyy's roms because a friend of mine has a I9000, and he had it running, and it was amazing, and no rom on Vibrant can compare to it. YET. The Devs here for the Vibrant are awesome, but darkyy's got more experience i guess, but his roms are just... faster, better looking for some reason.
I just PM'd Darkyy, and will reply on this thread if any response is made.
I suggested to him that he can chat with our Vibrant Devs as well and try to make it compatible with our device.
GOT A REPLY!!!!!!!!
Hi there
I need to make this more userfriendly - yes, it works with any device (it's a bit basic for now)
For now, you guys just need to select "Skip Kernel" and "No-Modem" in the Darky App and then flash - btw, since v9.3 Beta 1, the automatical Wipe isn't there anymore
Will update the ROM soon
I'm off for 3 days now

There are really only two permanent fixes if you want 2.2.1.
1. EDTs 2.2.1 which is a hybrid at this point, incorporating the Vibrants stability with the 2.2.1 speed.
2. TWs Frost which is pure 2.2.1.
Neither of these are based on I9000 though, both are based on the V4g.

I just upgraded from my old Droid Eris to a new fascinate last friday and I've been messing around with it trying out different ROMs and such and i decided to install the ED01 v1.2 rom today. I was enjoying it until i found out that i couldn't recieve texts and when i sent them all it would send was a blank text...
I've since reverted back to stock and I was wondering if anyone could help me out because I was really enjoying the rom until i realized I wasnt getting texts.
What modem did you flash when you were running UKB 1.2?
*You should be running the EC01 or the ED01 modem. You can find the ODIN file for EC01 modem in the forums. Sadly, in order to have the ED01 radio, you need to go through Adrynalyne's process of retrieving it (which you can also find in the forums).
I think I was just running the EI01 regular baseband. I didn't know that was even a factor. I'm going to try to find everything you just mentioned haha, wish me luck

actually i run into the same problem.. im on ec01 radio comm 1.2, i live in an area with poor service.. but i could usually send messages.. now if i lose service for more than 5-10 minutes.. i have to reboot phone to get them to send/recieve.. not even toggling airplane mode will bring it back.. ive tried *228 with no improvement
Ok so I reflashed a stock fully bloated 100% original rom and took the OTA update to Froyo which upgrades the modem to ED01 right? So i should be able to flash the community rom fine now without any problems right? or am i completely wrong?

Hey folks
Well I have had my share of messups with my vzn fsc.
Things are settled now as I have been Ble to figure out the stuff.
So after trying superclen, evilfascination, and community rom I have come to the conclusion that personally (and no offence to no one) I like the stock roms more but without the samsung and verizon bloatware.
Could you great guyz suggest me the best debloated and all stock rom which is smooth to operate, has great battery life and doesnt hVe any known issues.
I would b highly thankful for the help, pl link me to the threads guyz.
Regards
UPDATE : guyz the kind suggestion given my dnoyeb here in the second post is really awesome and i suggest all should try this.

Install imnuts -100 voodoo (or -50 or stock voltage) click here

Then rebooted back to recovery, which is now 3.x after installing imnuts, installed following:

If you followed the steps by dnoyeb, then you are correctly set up on a debloated/deodexed ED01 ROM. Your baseband is the modem/radio and would not have changed after you followed Adrynalyne's post to get to ED01 quickly. You flashed imnuts' ED03 ODIN package which would have given you the stock ED03 ROM and kernel, but not the ED03 modem so you were still at ED01 modem which is fine. Then you followed dneyob's steps to flash the ED01 Debloated/Deodexed ROM which would have changed you to the ED01 build from ED03 build. For all intents and purposes ED01 and ED03 are the same thing. ED03 simply added in a fix for those people who could not receive the ED01 OTA update. The verizon and android both flashing at the same time is just an overlapping boot animation that happened because as I recall you could not do a complete data wipe/factory reset for fear of losing the verizon network while you are in India. So other than that little quirk of the overlapping boot animations, you should be exactly where you wanted to end up - a debloated ED01 ROM and with imnuts' -100mv kernel you should see better battery life if your phone can handle the undervolting.
Congrats!
i guess i did exactly as you have outlined,
i am now gonna caliberate the battery and will revert tomorrow about the backup and stuff
love ya

when i first was learning how to root and flash, the thread for the evilfascination rom taught me everything i know. it does a great job in describing the steps to root and then flash the rom. i personally stuck with the evil fascination because its been so stable from the getgo and i love the overall theme of it. I kept getting peculiar bugs with comrom that i did not know enough yet to try and fix.
I suggest you go to the fascinate android development forum, and read the evil fascination thread.
I updated my post on the first page with links incase anyone else was looking at a quick rundown with links on how to get to a fully rooted / debinged / debloated type setup quickly.
Thanks a bunch matey.
God bless.

so you mean u didnt go for debloated ed01 from adryn and not even the kernal ?
if yes then someday i might also wanna try this out, coz as and when i use 3G my battery drains like hell with the debloated setup as well.
would appreciate some more suggestions.

with EA28 and ED04 + PBJ sv 531 kernal i get pretty much good backup and good 3g speeds too.
missed call was the issue which i am trying to solve with softlocker, seems to work
I've been doing pretty well at flashing new roms and thought i had the hang of it. But when I went from a complete stock fascinate > root > Correct Rom manager install > to Cyanogen mod 7 rom. I can not send or receive sms. I have flashed a couple other roms and even the new nightlies for Cm7. Am I missing something? Is it kernel Based?
Sorry for the newbness of it. But I have been working on this for a couple days now.

I would suggest to use Odin to flash recovery, or VZW roms (when starting fresh or returning to stock, or if the rom is made for Odin flashing) and use cwm recovery to install roms, kernels, zip files or whatever and get away from rom manager...it doesn't work well with the fascinate and while some files and recovery's will flash through rom manager you'll save yourself a lot of headaches if you learn Odin and cwm, now....its not hard, you just have to read, and read and read, especially the stickies in the a and a and Dev section. ultimately though I think you're problem is based on using rom manager for you're install.
This will get you on the right track and all off the links for Odin, recovery, and instructions are in the first post.

Thank you!
That's what it was, I was under the assumption the radio file had updated and it hadn't. Guess i just missed the error in Odin. I just updated to EC09 and they started working.
Is that the newest radio available?

EC09 has proven to have the best performance with all the GB roms (since it's a modem from the GB vzw leak). But it's not the newest since build date is E=2011 C=march 09th.
good day.
I am new here, please don't bite.
I have been following the NeoBuddy ICS for a while but haven't jumped in yet. Just picked up a new SD card and want to jump in.
Getting on ICS Passion will be easy with all the great guides. But I am interested in being able to dual boot ICS and 2.2 stock since I require the WiFi Calling while at work. (There is ZERO signal in our building on T-Mobile frequencies)
From what I have read to get back to a stock 2.2 I would have to Odin back, not use Rom Manager? Is this correct? Am I wrong? Am I bothering you?
Thanks for any help.

There is no ability to dual boot the Vibrant (at this time). Going back and forth regularly would be a pain..
Maybe dual booting is the wrong phrasing. Could I backup and restore a 2.2 and a ICS install with Nandroid? And then go back and forth between them?
I am willing to wait for a backup to be restored. I'd rather wait for that than have no ability to receive calls.
I am still trying to grasp the backup and restore process on android phones. This is a hell of a lot to absorb. I am reading as many posts and guides but the underlaying concepts are missing.
Thanks agin.

The recoveries/kernels used are different nandroid doesn't backup kernels. You would end up bricking your phone. To go from ICS back to 2.2 you need to odin back to a stock rom first you can't just flash in CWM. The entire file system is different.

OK I think I got it.
You can flash different ROM's as longs as you are on the same version (2.2, 2.3 ect) and running the same kernel.
But if you want to move between a 2.2 and a 2.3 or a 4.0 you need to go back to stock and go from there.

I'm not 100% sure, but 2.3 might have wifi calling, and as far as my personal experience, you can switch between ICS PASSION and a 2.3 rom as much as you want. I don't know how nandroid backups work though so someone may have to back me up
If you can bounce back and forth with 2.3 and 4.0. Just keep both zips handy. Always format system before flashing. Seems most roms do this auto. Never used nandroid so don't know much on it. Titanium backup pro let's you fast install missing apps without confirming each one. Just don't install with any data.
Also most roms come with a kernel. I'd say find stable 2.3 with wifi calling. I don't know of any quicker way swapping back and forth.

Wifi callings needs a stock touchwiz rom. Different kernel CWM and rfs/ext4 file system.
Going back to cm7 or miui is one thing but back to a Samsung rom is different

ok Im still learning. I know tw is different framework but would he need to Odin back to stock every time to switch. Or would he be able to flash through cwm. Use a touchwiz based rom with working wifi calling and an ICS rom
Or because it's aosp he needs to Odin back. I know I've had to coming off of any cm or miui to a Samsung rom. I think I'm understanding what your saying now

Just to call attention to the word "pro" - you do have to pay for this feature. This and the Dropbox sync make pro totally worth the price, but I wanted to point out that it's not free.
Very true thank you and well worth it imo. In the free version you do have to manually click install on every app which gets old fast!
So it seems like moving back and forth between roms is not a problem IF it isn't a Samsung ROM. I'd have to Odin back.
If I used/found a 2.2 or 2.3 ROM which had the WiFi calling ported over to it I could then flip between them (by backing them up and restoring them).

T-Mobile WiFi calling needs the Touchwiz framework. Which is only availible in Samsung roms. 2.3 AOSPish roms (CM7, MIUI) do not have the needed framework.

Thanks Bob!
I guess I am S out of luck to do what I'd like to do. Probably will still put ICS on to at least try it out.
Thanks to everyone for the information. (I hit the thanks buttons)
Get yourself a google voice number and groove ip to make VOIP calls. afaik you can forward your cellular number to GV, or just tell your contacts of your GV number.

Funny, I just did some research this morning and came up with the same exact solution!
Probably will end up going the GV and Groove route while at work. Probably set the forwarding before I go inside to work.
