Hi guys,
Firstly many thanks to slade87 and all those involved in the making of the above mentioned rom. Finally got it woking on my phone and am loving!!
Sadly, I have a problem, and its probably something stupid ive overlooked. When im on the marketplace I can see the apps fine if I manually look in the categories, but searching for anything, even by the exact name tells me that no such thing exists in the marketplace!!!
Any ideas.
Thanks
Jim

a fair point, to be honest i went for a rom that matched the baseband on my phone and looked stable and to be fair to the rom everything else has worked fine. i have tried installing other roms after installing cwm using these instructions.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182571&highlight=installing+cwm
sadly when i did this every rom i tried to install generated an error message regarding scripting and android 1.5.
luck.... i dont seem to have it!!!
gone back to this mornings backup of the stock 2.1 rom and will try again tonight when i get in from work. have got cyanocomb 1.4 downloaded so might give that a try unless any one has any suggestions.

Cyanocomb is a good choice
froyoCM6 v6.01+hotfix to 6.01.2 by madbulls is also a very good rom
even better would be to try the gingerbread roms
there's 3 of them currently and all 3 of them are very very good for usage too
Now using cyanocomb 1.4, battery life was a bit of an issue to begin with but has much improved with a little messing around. May try further roms, only gripe is the symbol key not working, but the softkeyboard takes care of that after a fashion!!!

I put the TeamHackSung ICS 6.5 rom on my Fascinate, and then installed the Glitch v1.4 beta 5 kernel. Found that my 3G no longer would connect. I looked through the dev thread, and in post #5 saw, "Signal won't work, this kernel is GSM, your fascinate is CDMA" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459530&highlight=glitch+v14)
That sounds pretty definitive that you can't use this Glitch kernel with the Fascinate, yet I could have sworn I've read about others using it. Am I misunderstanding something here?

im running glitch v14 b5 on ths 6.5 with no issues.
Humph. That certainly makes sense, given that the Glitch thread is in the Fascinate forums...but why did someone say there's a CDMA vs GSM problem?
Lemme try reinstalling it, after first doing another Nandroid backup.
Is the kernel that comes with TeamHackSung ICS 6.5 rom available, so that I don't have to fuss with Nandroid if I need to revert from Glitch?
just reflash the rom but dont wipe data.
Nope...got the same result. No 3G access.
Anything else I can try?

Groan...I'll have to put off starting over for a bit; I don't have time right now to set up everything again. And I'm a bit worried about "reactivate your current device" since, per my other thread, I'm unable to get a dial pad when calling *228.
the problem is you flashed the glitch b4 for 6.0 instead of the b4 6.1 version. If you read my guide it clearly states which version to flash. Also that link you posted is for the TELUS Fascinate NOT the Verizon Fascinate...
Well, I flashed with the b5 for 6.1 version, and while the 3G worked, I ended up with the unable-to-Nandroid-backup bug. Since the only remedy I could find (clear the cache and Dalvik) didn't help, I've gone back to the kernel that came with TeamHackSung ICS. I'll keep an eye posted to see if future Glitch versions manage to fix the backup bug. Thanks for all the help.

It should be fixed soon... For now, flash an older glitch kernel.. Backup.. Flash newest glitch

S'pose that's a workaround, although it makes the noob in me a bit nervous to keep flashing part of the OS like that.
Plus, despite having read the feature list, I'm still not clear just what switching to Glitch does for me.

Glitch gives you the ability to overclock up to 1500mhz... also in call audio is clear and alot more crisp than the stock kernel...the bug where you have to always adjust the volume down on every call is fixed aswell. I also like the glitch recovery alot better...you can wipe cache and dalvik at the same time.

Do you think there's any chance that these changes to the recovery have something to do with the Nandroid backup problem?

There is a problem with a partition not being mounted. And is being looked at. Find out more info in the glitch v14 thread in development.. For now just do a backup with the b3 kernel then flash back to b5

Yes, thanks, someone told me that on another thread. To summarize:
To activate phone or update roaming without a keypad:
*22890 ---> This will program/activate your phone.
*22891 ---> This will update your roaming capabilities.
No need to hit other buttons after dialing. Let it finish, and reboot your phone.
You can also try dialing star 228 and then hit the menu button and add 8 or 10 2-second pause to it... It will look like this: *228,,,,,,,,,1
Hey guys, do you need the gingerbread boot loader before going to glitch? I can't find them in the vanilla ROM post.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Here ya go.
You don't really "need" the bootloaders before flashing glitch, but you should definitely have them to minimize any issues. Also, if you like BLN, I would flash B4 as opposed to B5, it's not working quite right on the latest beta.

With the B5 kernel, my backlights come on when I have unread emails...and since I don't check them very often, I worry the feature is using a lot of battery. Is there a way to turn it off?

Just what are the bootloaders? What do they do, and how do I use them?
Ok guys ive been running AOKP milestone 4 for over a week now and am loving it. I follow the forums kinda closely and see most people are running custom kernels. Now ive tried a Glitch kernel while I was on TSH 6.5. Loved the speed and CPU tweeks, however as soon as I would flash it I would loose my 3G. Everytime this would happen. In addition to not being able to successfully do a backup. So I went back to stock.
So now that Im on AOKP 4 I see some of yous are still running a glitch kernel so I tried to put one one yesterday.....I saw the Glitch splash screen(BTW I am still trying to figure how to change splash screens ...so if anyone learned something new... ) and thats the last thing I saw. LOL It just froze on that screen. Had to go back to stock and rebuild.
So does anyone have an idea of compatible kernel for AOKP 4 with maybe an idea of what I did wrong.
Before you guys jump on me and tell to look on other threads, I have. I dont post unless Im truely stuck.

In order to get the Glitch splash screen you will need to Odin Gingerbread bootloaders.
As for you losing 3g, that tells me you're flashing the wrong version of Glitch. (or you're not on Verizon)
Ssewk2x fixed the nandroid failure for the most part in his latest test kernel as well, he has a Dropbox link up somewhere. Search through his posts if you need it. This kernel should also be compatible with AOKP M4 so it's your best bet.
I am def on Verizon. And as for the proper version of the kernel, I was simply flashing the same version everyone else said they were running. B5 V14 i think it was.
Whatcha mean GB bootloader?
i just tried to flash V14 B5 for ths build 6 which seems to be what others are running again, and yet again no 3G. cant find a fix for it. Oh well stock kernel for me for now i guess.

If you are using build 6 you should be flashing the kernel that specifically says it's for build 6.
Why are you flashing build 6 anyway? It's outdated by two releases, build 7 just came out this afternoon.
There's no fix for it because nothing is broken.
EDIT* I flashed 6.1 and i got 3G
No Im running AOKP milestone 4

Oh, yeah. So you were just running the wrong kernel then, you flashed the 6.1 version and all is good again I assume?

Uuuhm, you can get info on how to do it here. Just don't use that param.lfs, I don't know what would happen. **** might blow up.
I haven't looked at this MOD for a long ass time, so I really can't help you there.
I am trying to install this on Milestone X2 to see if we can get it. I am getting a kernal check error. I tried wiping the kernal check stuff before that we had to do with Ace's MUIU and CM7. But that did not work. Does anyone else have any suggestions to try?
I figured it out. If anyone wants me to post it let me know.

Ok just got a vibrant from a friend at work and it was stuck with a phone to pc icon, think he uplugged it while trying to update it, anyway I put it in download mode and used odin to flash it back to stock 2.1 eclair, rooted it and put recovery on it. My question is can I flash a ics rom right from 2.1 or is there a step I need to do in between, dont have experience with flashing roms on this phone, I dont want to get stuck in a bootloop and start all over.

Woodrube has a guide up (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464423), and there are a few other threads on it.
Quick synopsis is to flash the Gingerbread bootloaders, ensure voodoo is disabled (shouldn't be there from what you've said you've done) but read through the guide. It's a lot easier than it used to be, but since you're significantly changing the filesystem it's better to be safe than sorry.
Thanks for the nod Kaiser.
Rob, if you have any questions, please ask. Best not to have a borked phone.

+1, Listen to Woody's advice in his guide, he's smart, he's my hero! :victory:
Thanks guys especially woodrub your guides really helped out, I installed the gingerbread
bootloaders, then cm7 which was tricky at first cause it was bootlooping but your guide told me it was normal to just reflash in blue recovery, then I flashed ics passion Rom, all is running great thanks again

Not Knockin It, Not Knocking It at all....
but Passion is a little outdated. There's more up to date options out there, CM9, SlimICS, (ahem) ICZen, all more up to date and running off android 4.0.4, passion is on 4.0.3, there were a lot of source patches from google, bugfixes, in 4.0.4.
At any rate, glad you got 'er up without issue.

Really give a look at ICZen. I'm sure if you read enough around here you'll find that most people default to that when they aren't trying a new release.
Also keep in mind that kernels play a big role in the performance of ICS ROMs; a whole lot more than they did with Froyo, in my opinion. Devil and Sub-Zero are probably the best ones out from my experience.
