I'm posting this here because I don't have enough posts to post in Dev groups..
I am using Task650's KME V7.1, it's great. Thanks for the great work Task650!!
The only issue I have is the ongoing black on black and white on white issues.
I need to be able to use the calendar so this a major issue for me.
Task650's original post lists a flashable file to get the stock settings apk back to eliminate this problem. I flashed this but see no difference. I still see BoB and WoW issues. Has anyone who has flashed this seen different results?
Should I have cleared the cache or something before flashing?

BoB and WoW is a never-ending issue. Once you try to fix one, another shows up because of it.
I was wondering if anyone could help me. I recently upgraded to a nexus and at that same time a friend of mine broke her phone, so I gave her my fascinate with AOKP M6 on it...but she's getting sick of the bugs. Since I really have no way of testing I was hoping someone could help me make the decision of putting either a TW ROM or the latest CM 10 nightly on the fascinate.
I've been keeping an eye of the CyanogenMod gerrit and it looks like Jt1134 has made some serious headway, but can anyone give me their educated opinion? (I'm already running the nightlies on my nexus so I'm more interested in device specific bugs)
Thanks if you can help, I just have no way to test and I don't want to piss off a bug intolerant girl. ^-^
CM10 nightly is my suggestion... personally I've never had any real issues with it. The Devil Kernel 1.6.1 has been working great, but sticking with the stock kernel could be good for future releases. I much prefer using Devil because of the performance tweaks, but your friend probably won't care.
The TW rom will give rock solid stability too, but honestly... CM10 is so fast and smooth I can't see why anyone would bother with a GB rom anymore... especially since CM10 is practically bug free.

Thanks for the suggestion, yeah CM 10 looks like a very good option at the moment because of the now built in updater.
I also just remembered she was asking about the colors being washed out compared to stock, does the default CM 10 kernel come with anything to enhance that or would I need to flash devil kernel with Voodoo color? (She made it seem like a bit of a big deal so I promised I'd look into it)

Hmm that's a good question. I've never really messed with tweaking the colors to be honest, and I've always used the CMC (Cyanogenmod Color) version of Devil because the VC one gives me a weird negative image flash when coming out of sleep mode. I'm sure there are some apps that will adjust color that she could get from the market, no matter which kernel it is. I think I even remember looking for the app that adjusts Voodoo Color and couldn't for the life of me find it. Sorry I can't be more help, the colors were always vibrant enough for me so I never really cared to adjust them
edit: Well I did find some basic color calibration settings under System Settings > Device > Advanced > Color Tuning. Not sure if it's going to be what she's looking for, but it seems to be a built in feature for the rom itself, and separate from the kernel options. The devil config manager I'm using doesn't have any color tuning options at all.
The app you were looking for was probably Voodoo Sound, a color calibration option becomes available in it if you're on a VC enabled kernel. It doesn't really matter though, it looks like I'll be flashing Devil kernel anyway as I just read some reports of "screen jumpiness" on the stock kernel in the devil kernel thread.
I'm not really sure what that means but I'd rather just avoid it entirely.

Those issues are almost always from someone who 'dirty flashed' instead of doing a proper data wipe and clean install. I've run on the stock kernel many times never experiencing those issues. That said, I still prefer the Devil kernel but I can see a couple of problems with her using that... 1) If a newer Devil Kernel is released, will she know enough to flash it? 2) If CM10 gets another partition change, or something that will break Devil, and she updates it could cause a boot loop, and 3) If she's not into customs roms as much as you she might go into devil settings and cause a lot of trouble if she's 'unhappy' with the performance. Food for thought

Good points, I think I'll start her on stock kernel for a few days and go from there if she needs better performance/color control. Anyway, It's good to know the fascinate community is still awesome!
Thanks for your help.
I am curious to what bugs she has been having. I have been using AOKP since ICS build 28 with very few bugs if any throughout all the builds. I have been very pleased even with stock kernel as to how fast and responsive it is. I know CM to be good as well but prefer the cherry picks Steve spear has built into some of his releases

Apparently the browser randomly stops loading web pages and has to be force killed, MMS don't always come through, and...there were a couple more but I can't remember them at all.
I was really rushed when I flashed her phone and I'm pretty sure some of the stuff I put on there was in mid-development. (the kernel)
I have not had any problems with any web pages. MS6 for ICS should be stable although I am using the showcase on cspire network. Unfortunately I do not have picture/ MMS messaging to speak to that, but I know it has been a problem on several releases due to not wiping before flashing
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda app-developers app
I agree that MS6 should have been a lot more stable, but my recommendation stands... go with CM10, it's just plain better

i agree with this, for the colors i go there to the color tuning, just make sure you use a CMC kernel and not voodoo color. anyways my settings are 1.0 for red and blue, and .887 for green with all the gammas at -40. it looks amazing, vivid and sharp and not over saturated.
Wow that does look pretty good, did you just figure this out yourself or are there guides on how to calibrate?

i was just messing around with the colors in there and kept working down the gamma since im a sucker for vivid and non washed out colors lol, i ended up with them all the way negative but found out it had a tad of a green tone so i just moved the green slider back to where it looked about right. it is no one way calibrated or anything, just the best i could make make it look to my eyes.
If your friend really just wants a stable ROM, AOKP M6 should be their best bet. Likely the issue is that the phone has been upgraded many times; the best way to ensure a clean install of AOKP is to flash to stock in Odin then flash other things progressively to get to ICS. This post provides a great overview of the process.

If your follow those steps for your friend, the issues with the browser should disappear. The end result? A bug free rom that makes everyone happy. I personally wouldn't suggest upgrading to CM10 unless your friend really just wants to upgrade their phone periodically.

I appreciate the response, sadly those are pretty much the exact steps I took to flash the fascinate before I gave it to her. I really don't know what's up with it, but why do you suggest staying on ICS?
I'm running the CM10 nightlies on my gnexus and the only real bug I have is ringtones reset to the default within the first day after flashing, after that it's pretty flawless. Are there some other bugs on the fascinate that I should be aware of?

That's too bad... I'm very surprised that there are still issues!
I'm pretty sure the fascinate isn't on the officially supported device list for CM10, which means that more bugs could be present, but honestly I'm not terribly familiar with that ROM. For me personally, I think ICS might be better since the voice search is much faster and there's more storage space or apps, but that's just me.

The fascinate has been receiving official nightly cm10 builds for over a month, and due to recent partition layout changes, there is more storage space available than even a stock ROM.

As much as I loved AOKP ICS M6, CM10 just blows it away. It's the best JB rom I've ever run, and with Devil 1.6.1 it's a beast :good:
are there any pics of cm10 anywhere and does the camera and camcorder work? Gapps seperate?
If you like MIUI and want a fully working v4 with data and everything working. rafyvitto did all the wonderful work over at rootzwiki amaze forum and I used it for a while and have been switching around but G1Master Broke down the difference in the roms to make it easy to pick which download is the best
"Just an FYI to everyone who may download this rom, RafyVitto has made an Awesome rom for our AMAZE. He currently has 3 versions of this rom, and this is not a Rant of any kind but just some general information since I have been using his roms from one version to the next.
I will list from the most stable to least stable. Does not mean that there are FC's of any kind but just some things may have been broken due to MIUI's updates and not RafyVitto's fault.
I found that the 2.9.29 version to be the most stable when it came down to themes, GPS fix, Speed, Network speed and the SMS app to be fully functional and no "Asian" characters any where. Everything just worked on this version. Ive actually had to go back to this version everytime he updated it.
Again these things that "Broke" are not his fault but MIUI's and the fact this isnt an Official rom from them but a port from another device (Which I am not sure which device).
The 2.10.12 version was just as quick, themes worked, but GPS did break (RafyVitto has a fix somewhere in this thread for), the SD Card Mount broke (Again he has a fix somewhere in this thread), Found the network to be a little unstable (Shows Full bars but sometimes things would not load or download at all, turning the data on and off fixed that for me, seems data would get "Hung up") Themes did work, but the SMS app lost all "Smilies" and were replaced with "Asian" characters. Also the stock browser for some reason in this version was set to a webpage "Baidu" as its search function when the earlier release did not do this. Problem with that is that it showed the search options in an "Asian" language. Not a huge deal but just an FYI.
The 2.10.19 version was exactly the same as the 2.10.12 version but a lot of themes were messed up (Black on black, White on White, Also some windows turned white when should of been a different color, example is the Concept ICS theme the pull down status bar the notifications and toggle tabs turned white when should of been a see through black color.) Note this version had all the fixes when it came to GPS and the SD Card mount issues, but all other problems "I" had with the other version were still present. I am not sure exactly what changed in this version to screw the themes up but again this just an FYI and just my opinion.
Again not a rant but just some (Hopefully) useful information. To this day I am still using his 2.9.29 release and I love it. Wish he wasnt leaving but I do understand why.
Thanks again for all your hard work and time to bring us a functional MIUI rom RafyVitto!"

Maybe some one can pick up where he left off. But its a perfectly stable rom

HEY You guys are doing an incredible job! I was wondering about your rom PAJB The Tablet one! I wanted to know if you could do that again now that CM10 is working? I love that look and feel!

Give them time to finish working out the kinks in CM first, then you'll start seeing new roms based off it come flooding in.

I'm too new here to post in the actual rom thread, but was wondering if the blue highlight mod would work in this rom with out complicating anything. I cant stand that horrible disgusting green and was surprised to see they hadnt changed it by default. Thanks for any help.
Yes it should work without borking anything. Youre talking about the over scroll, right?
Was just coming on to report and you musta just hit post. I ended up backing up and taking the chance flashing the zip over the Rom and so far I can't see any negative effects. Been about a half hour now and I've rebooted a few times while changing vipertweaks and the mod has stuck. Hopefully it'll get worked into the Rom itself if possible....still can't believe all the blue HTC made the change to and yet still left that green.....that gross green.
