[Q] Jt's 9/12 Kernal - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone direct me to where Jt's 9/12 Kernal is. I looked in rom manager, but it's not there. I know it is included in new MTD roms, but I not sure how to extract it if possible. I'm running an older version of MIUI for stability issues and would like the updated kernal. Thank you for your guidence.

I don't have the link handy, but I got it from his twitter account, on the 12th he has a link posted.

Duh! Thants right. Totally forgot.

[Q]another new fascinate owner

ok so i've went through the threads here and pretty much got a handle on what's what but some are little outdated. though since i'm new, i've already applied the ED01 froyo OTA update from stock as soon as i opened it up and a lot of the stuff here are applied to older firmwares. so first things first, i tried to root using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790004 using the fascinateRootv02 but no go. i hear you can use superoneclick but looking at the superonelick thread, samsung fascinate is not supported? so if someone can point me to the right direction, i would appreciate it.
so with that said, i know there are a lot of roms available. i want to just stick to one that works well and avoid much as possible in keep changing roms. so what is the most popular roms out of the bunch?
thanks!

You are correct. You can just odin a CWR of your choice and then flash a ROM with the Super User package already in place and kaboom rooted
Superonelick (version...let me look here.....ugh... version 1.8) is fascinate compatible and I myself have used it before.
cheers.
** Edit **
To answer you question OP, the most popular ROM is Ultimatekangbang (Community ROM v1.x), Evil Fascination, and CyanogenMod 7 (Koas or CM7 by JT **Gingerbread**)
Quick break down
Kangbang (Comm)
-Community developed and updated frequently
-Most popular
-Comes with an overclockable/undervoltable kernel (up to 1.6ghz)
Evil Fascination
-2nd only to Kangbang
-Great ROM very clean
-No kernel (since I last checked could be wrong)
- Just use one of the PBJ kernels that are under volted for better battery life
-beta testing the LG android launcher
CM7
-Gingerbread (2.3)
-Camera, MMS, and BT do not function until a 2.3 official leak is obtained
-Smooth and completely open source
-heavily customizable
I use Kangbang 1.3 with the 100uv PBJ kernel and I see no crashes or force closing issues alongside 25 to 30 hours of battery life under normal use.

[Q] [Telus Fascinate] CM7 Flashing Question

Hi
I am looking to install CM7 on my Telus Fascinate. I would have asked this in the guides i have been reading but i don't have enough posts to post in the development area. I am currently running stock 2.2 with the Voodoo Lag Fix kernel. I've read a bunch of guides in the forums and i am just wondering can i flash with CM7 with this kernel running? I know i have to disable lag fix but i also see in guides about installing different kernels first. Also is there an initial version of CM7 i need to flash first or can i just go right to the latest nightly version.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Make TRIPLE sure you disable voodoo first. Start with the base CM7, since the kernel is bundled in with the package, then you can flash the latest nightly without any concerns (other than wiping cache).

[Q] Kernels??? and cyanogenmod

Hi all,
I have a few questions now I am running cm7. And I can't find the answers propably because (you're a NOOOB!!!) I lack some basic understanding of the relation between kernels, mods, modems etc.
First the situation: SGS2 (duh) rooted using CF-Root OXA KG3. Flashed CM7 nightly (88 or 89 don't know from the top of my head).
My understanding of the parts is limited to the rom (cm7) is running on top of the kernel. Where the modem fits in I don't know.
Now the questions:
1. Does cm7 have (and am I running) it's own kernel or am I still on CF-Root?
2. If I want to switch to another kernel how would I do it and where can I find kernels working well with cm7? (I know about Swi7chblades thread)
3. Where is the modem for and can I change and improve it? (sorry couldn't find it in the guides nor the glossary on the wiki)
And I thought I had more but will say what pops up when I read your answers.
I think CM7 has a own kernel but i'm not sure
SiyahKernel v2.0 will work for you if you are still running CM7

Yeah I am still running CM7 and plan to stay there until their is either an ICS version or another ICS rom. Thanks for the kernel suggestion will check it out.
edit: SiyahKernel v2.0 looks promising, I'll put it on the list of things to try.
I tried siyah 2.0 stable but it wasn't a success. I ended up going back to stock and flashing cm7 again. On the modem front I flashed to KI4 and things seem a little better. But I still don't really know what to look for. Anyone?
CM7 has the kernel from cyanogen dev codeworkz. I'm using siyah ATM though which is decently stable.

[Q] Kernel for PowerWashed GB?

Hey guys, finally gathered the balls to flash my Fascinate a custom ROM today. After a long while of deciding what to go with, i found PowerWashed GB and flashed it with Odin and to my relief it worked and i went on and installed the permission package for it and my APN for Cricket.
Anyways!
I'm looking for a working kernel for my ROM (PowerWashed GB), I've checked out Leankernel but there's a few bugs in it. Can anyone recommend me a good stable ROM that works on PWGB?
Or possibly even better, a good reliable ROM that i can simply flash from where in at now? Please don't recommend Cyanogenmod, unless i can get a detailed guide because when i tried to flash it i got an error and it messed up my display and my keyboard got stuck open, and it was just hell so i re-flashed PWGB and was back to good.

[solved]problems regarding ics rom

I am using ics passion rom for past 5 months .....recently tried flashing iczen and encountered these problems .......1-whenever I flash an ics rom it bootloops and each time I have to remove battery and rebot again ...like this for nearly 3 to 5 times if I do after that it boots properly after that It runs fine .....2-after installing iczen for 1 day it worked fine later it was not recievieng any calls but i was able to call others ....for information I stay in India so worried of doing something as I won't get any support here ....now I'm on ics passion ...plz help me out.
Well the problem is, and maybe this is why no one replied, you need to do a full wipe and a cache wipe before flashing into diff roms like from passion to iczen
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
Aside from wiping properly, you might have downloaded the problematic ICZen 1.8.5, check your MD5 against what I have posted in that OP.
For about 12 hours I had one posted that had a problem with the ramdisk in the kernel, and it was not compatible with the Froyo RIL that was included with the AOKP milestone6 source MP used to build the ICZen base. The rom has since been updated with a good kernel that supports both RIL types, and a new MD5 is posted in the thread so you can verify if you have the correct version. Not all phones had the issue, but some did, it was a weird one, but it caused exactly what you are experiencing, loss of signal and ability to receive calls and texts.
Also, you might want to try the Stock RIL, thats posted on the other site, in mr_psycho's subZero kernel thread. Its a flashable zip. The kernel currently in ICZen_1.8.5 is compatible with both RILs now, so if you redownload the rom, you'll be safe either way.
after flashing 1.8.5 again its working properly ......thanx for helping another thing does baseband version changes after flashing a rom? I have same version in both ics passion and iczen is this normal?
ICZen won't flash the modem if you already have a valid modem in place. In other words, if you come from a Twiz based build, then it flashes the KB5 modem, but coming from another ICS rom, it won't flash a modem since there is already one there.
