You have a telus fascinate, not a TMO us vibrant, different beasts. I'm not sure if the telus fascinate has CM7 or not.

Well, the link describes abut Samsung roms, you're trying to flash a CM7 rom. I don't think there are any "fixed" kernels in the telus camp for CM7.
The reason it's failing for you though, is that you don't have a vibrant rom (or a vibrant build.prop), so it fails at the initial check.

do you know how i could get it to work because the rom i installed is the one for the vibrant. Or so it says on their website

Well, step one would be to flash a vibrant custom 2.2 rom and then flash the vibrant CM7 rom. But you'll have button mapping and headphone issues, and no one will want to fix them, since you don't actually have a vibrant.

Um... There is a headphone toggle widget floating around somewhere, a good Google search should get you your desired outcome. Or, you could pop into one of the kernel dev irc channels, and they might help you build a kernel with fixed button mapping and fixed headphone issues.

Hey guys.... Thanks to a member here at XDA, Krylon360, I have gotten my hands on the unreleased 2.2.1 Espresso OTA and so as usual my first stop in is to provide the new radio update while I sort the patches out and get you guys a stock rooted ROM... So without further chit chat as I got some work ahead of me, heres the new radio update taking baseband to 7.15.35.16.... Havent noticed much change although I have also tested nothing speedwise tbh so I will let you all report back on these things.... Grab the radio update here or here and let me know of any improvements or even negative effects it has caused with data, battery life, wifi, etc.... A CR_Mod stock., rooted OTA will follow shortly and you guys can get your much awaited 2.2.1 Froyo Espresso on early since TMO wants to lag..... Have fun... CR
PS: I did this with an update script rather than an updater script as it was easiest in windows which Im on for the moment... I will convert to an updater script in a little while. What does this mean you ask? It means any of you who have flashed the unsupported as of yet CWM 3.0+ rec images that are floating around will not be able to flash the radio. To fix this, use rom manager to reflash the current supported CWM rec, flash the radio, and if you must, reflash the CWM 3.0+ rec in fastboot.
Flashing!

just flashed over your 2.1 espresso rom and everythings running smoothly, will try speed tests now!!!
I've flashed it, but I'll have to wait till l8r to test it. Sounds like a nice update. Thanks!
Any way you can release the unrooted ota while we wait for it to be rooted?
Holy cow, wasn't expecting this, downloading here in a sec and then flashing!
EDIT: I think I may have experienced a double in downloading speed... But I could just be thinking that's whats going on.
Got to love when ChiefzReloaded popup with a new thread always a something good about to happen or have happen. Will steal my gf phone when she gets back home and try it out.
P.S. only thing i really want from that rom is the call over wifi app
Enjoy guys. I'll keep CR updated if I find anything new.
I was running cm7 but I flashed crmod instead then radio and speeds are soo noticably faster this is awsome

Chiefz, thanks for the radio dump. I flashed via fastboot. Haven't noticed *any* changes whatsoever, though... Not that surprising.
I am, however, most interested in the actual contents of the froyo OTA. Any chance you could put the whole zip up for download before you root it and defang it?
It wont flash on a non rooted phone... It does a version check and it looks for a version we don't even have so it fails.... Im looking for the esprimg that may help the process... Not sure if this is gonna be as easy as last time... CR

Well, at least in *my* case, I only want the zip so I can take it apart and see if I can appropriate the wifi calling bits for CM7. But if you don't want to release it just yet I understand. Thanks for providing the radio at least.
Im not sure what is goin on..i flashed the new radio in recovery..then after it rebooted it still shows 7.09.35.10 as my radio..but i also noticed last night after i flashed build 8 of cm7 it still shows in the phone info as build 7.. am i doin something wrong or is it a bug.

Oh true, mine says that to. I used the mediafire link to download it. Installed in Clockwork recovery. I'm on CM6.1.1
same thing happen to me @ first. I flashed through fastboot using the radio.img... and it worked like a charm...
Second on the raw files in a zip that you have if you can
I flashed this radio so far so good, thank you !!
Will this radio work on ArayrayMod Revamped if so I'll absolutely be flashing asap.
Hey guys i flashed a stock rom and i keep getting no service. Ever since i did this ive been getting an at&t bootanimation, and then under the system settings, i get no network listed. Obviously I have tmoblie but i am only picking up at&t radio signals too. I have tried flashing cyanogen and i dont get these problems. I attached picture to help for a better understanding. Thanks in advance for help

I tried this too, but i still get the same results. The only rom that doesnt do this to me seems to be cyanogen but i still get the at&t boot. Sorry Im actually a MT4G user, this is my brother's phone im trying to help him with and im not too great with it as you can see. He just doesnt like cyanogen. Any more help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so far guys.
Can someone help me get rid of the boot logo at least?
Anyone happen to know, or even a guess why telus would remove the GB update from their site. I've read about people have various problems with the updating, but from what I read, those problems were PC related.
Mine worked just fine.
I also have a question... is it possible to dump a stock rom and/or radio and/or kernel without having root?
Thx
Maniac
Can anyone confirm if this is true?
That is sort of strange. Im glad I was able to get it in time. And rooted too
People were losing SD cards on telus also.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Can anyone tell me how I can rip the rom, cause I've tried the method found on these forums for the fascinate for froyo, but when I tried to odin it back it didn't work.
So right now I'm almost afraid to shut the phone off just in case I can't boot and I have no way to get it back to stock GB.
Mainly what I want to do is make a factory image that I can put somewhere for others to download it. Cause I want to try some things but I can't until telus puts the update up again.

I think Telus was getting all kinds of questions on when it would be available when they had no control over it - so they made a generic upgrade page.
I just tried with Kies and I got GingerBread BUT I'm also staring a long time at a galaxy S screen - lost my clockwork mod recovery as well (back to stock 3E).
Hmmmm - anyone know if this update is still available online somewhere as I have no OTA to get it and of course as the thread says... TELUS has pulled it.

I'm pretty sure to upgrade through the Samsung Kies software, you will have to remove any mods / hacks that you made to your phone.
Best option probably is to flash everything back to Stock, which I did. Then had no problem updating via Kies:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923712
Alright I'll give that a shot tonight, the only 'mod' I have done would be rooting the phone - other than that it is stock at this time.
I guess the one thing I really shouldve mentioned in my first reply is I have the Fascinate 4G with TELUS, is the update specific to the 3G+?

Oh wait! If you have the Fascinate 4G+ (T959P) then you may not want to flash everything back to 2.2.
I'm not 100% sure that it may work with 4G Fascinate.
Can anyone validate the following steps will work on his Fascinate 4G+ ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923712
They are different phones. If you could get the 3G+ file to flash at all (which I doubt), it would almost certainly semi brick the phone. There is an update section on telus website for fascinate 4G (just below the 3G+ entry) (no update available today). When you see the update available there, you're good to go.
I have the 4g and I won't flash anything made for the 3g. Two different phones. I remember reading a thread about people bricking the 4g while trying to put 3g stuff on it.
high community i have been trying to change the ugly vibrant boot splash but i cant seem to find a way .i almost did but the package was removed due to some one complaining about the dev. i know it can be done because im running the gingerbread boot loaders for the vibrant but i wanted to change the image to the google image like in the nexus any ideas?
If you're already on the gb bootloaders you can use this guide. It's in the Captivate forums, but also works on the Vibrant. Worked perfectly for me.

These will not be compatible with CM7 (due to the proprietary fs used on param.lfs)...
straight from that op, if i need to explain why that doesnt work with ICS then you shouldnt be trying to do this in the first place

No explanation needed I know this but I'd figure I give it a go anyways however I'm actually working on a rom that is free from Google in every way . There are some very disturbing things about how Google collects and saves info on us all .if I'm unsuccessful then I'll get a blackberry or just a no frills phone .thanks

Yes there is a way, just in case you don't have it here we go . If you don't have clockwork mod recovery installed use your phone to download the cwr update.zip in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028 .Scroll down and look for directions on how to install cwr. Use a file manager app called " Astro " to put the file on your internal sd. Once you have recovery mode installed you can simply use your phone to download a custom 2.2 ROM and flash it through recovery mode (there will be directions on how to flash this in the thread) , just be sure to READ everything before flashing. This is probably the most popular 2.2 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441976 , you can search for others if you wish. This will pretty much void your warranty so if that's a problem then your probably stuck with 2.1 until you get your usb port fixed. Here is the closest Stock 2.2 ROM you will find if that's what your looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674519

yes... you can get an update.zip from http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59531727/Clockwork Recovery/Update.zip taken from Woodrube's Signature.
FYI DONT use KIES. It may Hard Brick your device. Place this update.zip in the root of internal SD (NOT inside a folder). You will have to do reinstall packages twice to get it to CWM maybe.
There are many good 2.2 ROMs like Moped's Ryders ROM and Fishman's.

I can't help but to notice that your signature says MB855. Since you are using a Photon, are you doing this modding for a friend's phone? If so and that person is not the "technical" sort, I suggest you leave them on 2.2 for now.
ICS ROMs are well beyond what you would think since we have no official ROM from Samsung for our devices, however they are not without dangers and pitfalls. There is a bug that is hitting Vibrants, Captivates, I-9000's, a few Asus Transformers (tf101)-in fact someone got hit with it yesterday. It is called the Encryption UnSuccessful bug and it will render the Internal_sd useless and you will have to hack your External_sd to run ANY ROM. Other than that and the fact that the Vibrant has crappy GPS (sans hardware fix), ICS ROMs are spectacular, especially since very few phones are running ICS at all, let alone 4.0.4.
I suggest you read about the EU bug but my pick for the best daily driver ICS ROM is by far ICZen with SubZero kernel. You can find it here but check out the dev section too.
