So I bought a new Fascinate dirt cheap off of Craigslist for $30 because the volume rocker is messed up(pain in the ass but I can still access download mode and recovery after a few tries).
I am currently running CM7 with no problem but have slowly realized how inferior it is in comparison to ICS. My problem is every time I load an ICS from my phone boots into safe mode. I have tried 3 different builds of aokp, JTs from, skangalang, and a few others but nothing works.
Anyone have any suggestions?

You need to give us a lot more information. Installation steps, what you might be doing when it does it, settings, etc.

Have you taken the battery out for a minute and pressed the power button 10-15 times to ensure a full discharge?
Do you happen t!o have a screen protector, are you in a low signal area, or are you touching the menu button as the phone turns on?

I am doing the standard steps.
1. Odin eh03
2. Odin CWM3
3. Root
4. Odin CWM4
5. Flash JTs build 2
6. Flash AOKP
If I follow the same steps but switch out JTs ICS build with CM7 I am fine. If I flash any ICS rom I boot into safe mode.
No to all of that.
Screw it. I am returning this piece of ****.

Probably too late, but steps 2 and 3 are unnecessary.
I flash Teamhacksung Build 1 instead of JT's build 2, whatever that is.

I've tried to get back to Com Rom several times. All I ever get is bootloops or it just freezes on Samsung.
Anybody care to give me the play by play on how to get there?

I may be wrong, but I was always under the impression when going backward in OS, you have to use ODIN. So you would need to ODIN the full EB01 package, then build your way up from there. Or ODIN to DL09, then OTA to ED04, then flash Comm ROM
Thanks Landshark, I'll give it a try when I get home.

Allright, so there I was, running a rather stable Comm Rom 2.0 Voodoo Rom with the ED10 Kernel/Radio, and then I saw the thread on the OMFGB GB release, that I, of course, just HAD to have...
So, my first mistake was being impatient and not being able to find any installation notes, and pretending that I knew what I was doing by installing the rom via CWM mod.
Here's the rub, for some reason, whenever I did the 3 finger salute, it would pull a RED CWM that went orange when I applied update.zip ... because if I tried to install rom from sd card with the initial CWM boot, it wouldn't install anything, it would just error out unless I applied update.zip. After selecting apply update from zip, it would boot the orange CWM and allow me to install whatever I wanted...
So after applying the OMFGB rom, it showed the Fascinate/ Cyanogenmod 7 bootscreen, then went to boot loop. I panicked, pulled the battery, then backed up everything to my computer, and formatted the sd card in FAT32 with Windows 7 64 bit...
Shortly thereafter, I was using ODIN and the original "return to stock" files, and ended up getting into the stock OS.
Now I never show 3G or even 1x, and never pull data at all... when I go to place calls, it says that verizon cannot authenticate my phone... when I activate, it reboots and says everything was successful, but was noticeably a faster process than standard activation. Upon reboot, nothing improves... the os is there, everything shows that everything is fine, yet I am still not able to place calls...
Here is where it gets weird... My wife called me today, and the call came through... I received text messages, but still couldn't make calls... My bill is zeroed out, I'm not locked out that I know of, and I just want my phone working again...
Running out of ideas. I have flashed ED01 DL01 and even reapplied the stock .PIT in odin... I am going to try heimdall while I wait for help from here, but any quick help would be GREATLY appreciated...
I believe the issue is you need to convert your system to mtd before flashing omfgb...some one correct me if I'm wrong though as I don't want to spread false info.
but Try installing jt's 0704 cm7 build following his instructions, then install his 0713 build (possible unnecessary step but it worked for me), then flash omfgb. You will most likely have to flash jt's fixed cwm to subsequently flash his cm7 as I had to since I was coming from a stock restore. And now I'm running a blazing fast omfgb...I was able to restore all my apps and data in half the time it took on com rom...good luck let me know how it goes

LET IT BOOT FULLY
2) flash the CWM in the OP of CM7
3) Do all Wipes then Flash CM7 0704
let boot fully
USE the Shutdown menu to get to orangeCWM
4) Do all Wipes then flash CM& 0713

USE the Shutdown menu to get to orangeCWM
5)Flash OMFGB
pull battery & 3 finger salute to redCWM
6) Do all Wipes then re-Flash CM7 0704
reboot and bingo you are at OMFGB

Alright the issue is resolved, my main concern was whether or not I could use my phone for phone calls... after finally mustering up the guts to call Verizon, it turned out that the main problem in which I was experiencing was due to some form of typical midnight updates that big red does... apparently, my phone, missed some form of update that ended up de-authorizing my phone, but Verizon was able to help out, even at this late hour.
On the good note, everything went through just fine as far as flashing cm7... I just seem a bit conflicted with which rom is best. I guess its just a matter of personal preference, really. So far I prefer jt's rom just fine, but I might be switching back and forth between jt's and omfgb...
Thanks again for all the help folks, I appreciate it more than you could know.

Not sure that I totally understand as to why I need to flash cm7 0713, then omfgb, then reflash cm7 0704... seems a bit redundant.
If you could clarify this for me and what improvement this offers, I would appreciate it.

Because omfgb apparently doesn't convert to mtd but cyan does, so you have to flash cm first

yup, that was your mistake. prior to flashing omfgb, you need to be on jt's cm7.
I'm too lazy to read all the posts but try flashing cm7 via cwm4. then, Odin back to stock using the right files and configurations. there's a sticky in the development section.
okay guys so i made this thread since it was getting too confusing and hard to track CLEAR INSTRUCTION on how to root from Rooted rom to cm7 or omfg roms!!
Basically this is what i did and STILL have iSSUE:
1.ODIN and atlas v.2.2pit (DL09 stock rom)
2. updated all OTA
3. pulled out battery and ODINed blue CM7 (latest one from jt's site)
4. did 3 method cmr and clear all data/wipe/davik
5. installed latest cm7 7/17
6. waited and seem like everything is perfect then it stops at cm7 logo with galaxy s sign and kept waiting and nothing HAPPENS anyone help???!!!
this is really pissing me off because I've been trying this several times now!!
ALSO for omfg i dont even know the instruction to get there anyone help it would be great!!!
Did you remember to flash gapps?

- In step 1 use vzw eb01 instead of dl09
- No need for step 2 just flash eb01 and reboot fully
-In step 3 pull batt and odin cwr 3-30 fix all (instead of jts blue one) and immediately do step 4...
-do step 4 the same as you did..wipe data/cache/delvik
-install cm7 build date 7/4 and reboot
That will get you running on cm7...from there you can install mtd kernel of choice (if you want something different then the one thats comes with, it) gapps, and/or the newest cm7 build..do not wipe here to go to the newest build but make sure you only use the recovery that came with cm7 by accessing it via the power button menu, or terminal emulator...reboot recovery...no three finger booting recovery from here out.the cm7 recovery will also be blue..you only odin the 3_30 fix all to get the cm7 build on your phone do after that first time seeing red recovery after you're on cm7 it will be blue from there on.
-odin desired radio.

You can just install the latest CM7 following the same steps the previous poster gave you. No need to install 7/4. Install 7/17 then 7/18 update.

When you odin, did you tick the re-partition box? Also you need to use one of the tar balls in the sticky about moving from cm7 to another rom. I know you're not going from cm7 but the tar balls still apply to this situation.

well tell me the instructions not just say "install miui" obviously i dont know how to do give me the steps!
Sorry, I had stock 2.2 eb01 (edo3/4 should work) to start. Then I used odin and flashed cwm-all (2.x.x or something) / three button boot to get to recovery/ wipe data/cache/flash super user zip/reboot/power off and back to odin/flash cwm-all again/three button boot/wipe data/cache/dalvik/flash latest miui . At this point it should reboot (cyanogen logo) then back to recovery and automatically install/reboot recovery/flash cm7 11.1. But like I said this worked for me, for some reason miui installed perfect like any other rom and not cm7. Sorry if this doesn't help.

Why do I have such a problem with recovery on my phone. It seems that regardless of what I'm flashing I have a problem with the phone rebooting into recovery. At least since ICS first came out, maybe earlier, when I'd flash a rom, alot of the time it would reboot into recovery and I'd have to ODIN back to stock and reflash. I flashed PB 3 without any problems but I tried PB4 and it would not boot beyond recovery. It seems to do it in CWM and Devil. I restored to a backup of AOKP and still recovery, which is currently Devil. What am I doing wrong or what do I need to do? I also have a problem keeping it from booting into safe mode, when it does boot. Any suggestions?
From what I can gather from your post it really appears that you are flashing things wrong. First things first, read droidstyle's guide on hoe to flash rooms properly. Couple other notes to keep in mind, once you are on cm7, ics, or jellybean you cannot just go into recovery and flash a touchwiz rom. You also cannot three finger boot into recovery anymore.

I haven't gone back to TW in a long time. As far as flashing wrong, I may be but I'll download the rom, boot into recovery, wipe, wipe, and sometimes wipe again. Then flash rom. When I do ODIN back I push the stock EC09 I think it is (I'm on a different computer), Atlas 2.2. Let it fully boot, shut it down. Then push CWM fixed for CM7. Immediately boot into recovery with the 3-finger method (the only time I use the 3-finger). I flash THS ICS Version 2. Allow it to boot then flashed whatever AOKP is latest. What have I been doing wrong?
At what point does it get stuck in recovery, is it after you flash aokp or after you try to restore a backup?

Usually after I flash aokp, or another rom. If all I'm doing is doing a restore it's ok. Now I've flashed jt's JB and I can't keep it from booting in safe mode.
This morning after a full charge I booted into recovery to wipe battery stats because I was having poor battery life. I'm running JT's JB by the way. When I rebooted it booted into safe mode. I tried pulling the battery and still safe mode. It took me rebooting 8 times before it did not go into safe mode. What could be causing it? I must be doing something wrong.
It could be a hardware issue or corrupt files. I know this may sound obvious, but I would Odin back to stock a d follow droidstyles guide exactly and start over. Do a fresh install of everything and reinstall all apps. Don't restore backups or anything. This will give you some clues.

That may be part of my problem. I've read and re-read that and the only thing I'm not doing is checking repartition when I Odin to stock. When I do, Odin hangs up at the beginning and will not do anything else. It works fine when I uncheck repartition. I'm doinloading a new copy of Odin on a different computer and am going to try.

Then I flashed codeworkx's kernel for CWM through Odin. Got stuck at galaxy SII screen so once again I went back to stock. All I want is to get SlimBean flashed or maybe CM, but I can't get a stable kernel flashed correctly. Anyone feel like helping me out?

BS. Impossible unless the flash was bad. CWM is built into kernel. Kernel and OS only matter if planning on booting into OS. You can flash a GB kernel while on a JB ROM and have no issues getting into CWM.
Issue is on your end. Odds are, your holding it wrong. heh the one good thing the iphone has done is that phrase
No, it would boot cwm just fine but cwm wouldn't work. Couldn't select anything on either kernel. NEAK worked just fine. I know how to boot recovery, I'm not a noob.

Noob is just a word describing someone new to doing something. If you say you aren't, we heard u the first time. Also i'd like to know exactly what kernels you're saying aren't working (the kernel contains the recovery which is what yer saying isn't working for u) so I can flash them myself.

They're in the OP. @Ninja, I could navigate the menu, but I couldn't select anything. Example: select "mounts and storage" or whatever it's called exactly. Screen would flash and put cursor back at the top selection. I tried every submenu, and tried selecting them each multiple times. Either way, I ended up flashing NEAK and it worked perfect. Now I have AOKP so I'm good.

Perhaps the non functional cwm experiences, resulted from an incompatible kernel? International, for example? I've never screwed up a flash, outside of forgetting gapps once or twice back in the day, so I'm just speculating.

Ohhh, I think I get what OP is talking about.
Sometimes, on older kernels, if you hold or bump the volume buttons it screws up the selector button. I would have this problem occassionally, rebooting CWM fixes it.
OP, tell me exactly how you are booting into CWM. Are you using the "hold all three buttons down" method? If so, try releasing the volume buttons earlier. I think holding both vol buttons while CWM is up disables the power key selector. This sounds like what's happening here, it isn't a bad kernel issue just some weird glitch they all seem to have.

three button combo. it isnt that glitch you're talking about though. once i flashed NEAK, i booted into cwm the same way and it worked just fine everytime. either way, im on AOKP now and i dont plan on going back to ICS so im good on flashing other than ROM updates and Gapps.
