[Q] When do you think DJ05 will be released? - Fascinate General

What is your best guess on when it will come out?

What makes you hesitant to try it?

I'm going to say it won't come out at all as the minor issues with it will cause VZW to reject it until those issues are fixed, and at that point, they will decide to just incorporate the positives from DJ05 into the Froyo.

+1, they're just gonna build on top of it, and release 2.2 altogether.

Haha.... It looks like I'm not the only impatient one. I have certainly held myself back this time and haven't give for the leaked DJ05. I'll wait for official release on .zip as I'm on custom rom.

What's a DJ05?

Amen scriz WTF... can't read bold writing in a sticky. Besides I heard DJ05 was a virus. that VZW was going to use to nuke all of our phones. Then they will offer us the DX, but it will be infected with an unknown virus right next to the mouthpiece. Once it has been inhaled we will begin massive group hallucinations that we are at a Kenny G concert. Suddenly, Rick Sanchez comes on stage and begins a rant against the Daily Show and we all agree with him that Jon Stewart is a bigot and Sarah Palin should be President. We go to the voting booth and begin to process our votes when we realize that we did not get dressed and the polling place is a strip club with zombie strippers clawing at our junk. Bust out the good old baseball bat and start killing zombies. Just then your mom walks in and catches you masturbating in the bathroom and screams. Mom!!! all I wanted was DJ05!!

DJ05 is a figment of your imagination. Its not real. Everyone who doesn't know Verizon is releasing android 2.3 gingerbread next week for the fascinate.

No ROMs or updates for this phone will be incredibly worthwhile at ALL until Froyo comes around.
Virtually all of those ROMs out there are just ROMs that I could patch together myself, on my stock Fascinate ROM.
DJ05 offers some improvements, but doesn't really help the big problem(s) of not having Frozen Yogurt on "the fastest phone around".
This is supposed to be a top-of-the-line Android phone, on Verizon.
My HTC Eris sports 2.2. It's a sad time for Android users to be stuck with 2.1 on a beautiful brand new handset like the Fascinate.
Once we get CyanogenMod and other worhtwhile ROMs ported, life will be better.
The point? Waiting for DJ05 is like waiting for 'a few bug fixes' - when we really are holding our breath for Froyo.
I hope it all comes out at once, soon. I'll be saddened and disheartened to go into 2011 without Froyo, when I got this phone to be on the cutting edge. Not on the introductory-android-phone-OS edge.

Froyo, gingerbread, honeycomb I don't even care short these anymore I just got the Mr. Misty OTA and it's the shiz. Only problem with it is that when I look at it too long or scroll too fast I get a brain freeze.

That was the absolute best read I've had in a long time. Thank you!

Okay... My patience finally ran out today. I could not hold out anymore. I gave in. Thanks to some very good folks on IRC, I installed the update today. And the verdict is: I'm so glad that I did. The phone is even smoother than it already was and the gps problem that I was experiencing after flashing a custom rom a few weeks ago is also gone now. Sweet!!

Not to be an ass, but If you don't see it here chances are it's not available yet. I believe XDA to be the central hub of information (even if the news originates somewhere else). If there is news it won't be hidden on the Development page.
Look in the forums of the other Galaxy S variants to see the status of Froyo on this Samsung line of devices. I believe it will be a little while before one is released for a CDMA version.

You were nicer than I was going to be, so I just decided to just bite my tongue, and let someone else respond first.
This is my first smartphone, so instead of this thread just dropping to the bottom, maybe myself and others could learn something.
What exactly needs to be done with Froyo (or any ROM) before it can be adapted to a particular phone, in this case, the fascinate?
I suppose keeping it in relative lay-speak would be nice as well.
Having samsung release a 2.2 ROM for the US Galaxy S phones would be a start.
The euro variants have a different button layout among other things that makes life harder for our development.

We need samsung to release the 2.2 update, and that will give you 2.2
As far as custom roms / CyanogenMod 6 on the fascinate, we will need the 2.6.32 kernel source code to drop (and pray that Samsung will release the right source when they release that code) and then a bit of developing.
you really think there will even be a 2.2? Personally, I think it would be updated straight to Gingerbread
There's a post from kaos on the kaos rom for eris forms stating that he had 2.2 running on his fascinate before it bricked, but that he MIGHT be developing a rom for the fascinate.
I'll see if I can track down the post.

We'll be so lucky if Kaos gets one working with the Fascinate, I had an Eris prior to the Fascinate and I was talking to him about developing for it, looks like he found someone to help him out.
His ROM > all others once they start rolling out.
Coming from an eris I would love to have punk kaos rom on my fascinate.
I'm coming from an eris too, and had kaos on mine, and about creamed myself after reading that, hahaha.....Even if kaos came out with a 2.1, id be all set.
LOL, same here. I got a late start with KaosFroyo, coming in at V30, after I discovered that one-touch root was finally available for the Eris. I had one month of the best Android experience possible on an Eris before I ordered up my new Fascinate. I wish I had the cash to buy a Fascinate for punk kaos, so he could start creating what could only become the best Fascinate ROM ever!
EDIT: Just saw the post where he said he's already working on one. Awesome!!! I'll DEFINITELY be donating to his coffee fund once he starts pumping out a ROM for this bad boy. Hmm, what will he name it though? I vote for Kaoscinate!
Yes, its true. I've been working on a 2.2 rom for the Fascinate. I got it to boot but was in the very early stages of dev when my phone let out a puff of smoke and died.
I got the phone through a sponsor, and have returned the phone to them and they're trying to get me another one. Hopefully they will soon and I can keep on truckin

Well, if you're sure
Just sent over some coffee cash for all the hard work on KaosFroyo, since I never got around to actually donating before. And also, I'm not done with it yet, as I'm loading up V35-1 on my deactivated Eris to let a co-worker with a live Eris play with. She's unhappy with 2.1, so she might want me to give her phone the same treatment, since she's stuck in a 2-year contract.
Anyway, looking forward to you getting a replacement Fascinate. Did it literally start smoking before it died? Dang, I knew these phones were hot, but that's just a bit over the top.

Update on FroYo

The question was posed on an internal forum system at Big Red:
"Any further updates as to when we will be releasing Froyo 2.2 for the Fascinate??"
To which the moderator responded: "Currently preparing to release MR2 (fixes only), FROYO will follow (early next year). The load is too large to put FROYO 2.2 into MR2."
I do not know what build MR2 is, but Big Red simply refers to builds as MRx, where x = the number of builds (read: times) they've updated. So the jump from DH12 to DI01 is considered MR1, this would be MR2. I however assume its DJ05 or even a newer build which has DJ05 and bug fixes that came from that, but we'll have to wait and see.
That being said, the moderator who responded is a VERY technical person and RELAYS actual device issues to all the OEMS on a daily basis. I would take his statements as fact, hes in charge of the internal forums for ALL phones, company wide, its about the most official, strictly technical, non marketing garbage answer you're going to get. Its his job to know this stuff....
Again, where I got it, 'tis none of your concern. I'm just copying and pasting, you do and think as you please.
I can wait till next year.
Rockin' DJ05, Minimal Icognito, Clocked at 1.3Ghz
I'm pretty sure it's already been confirmed that DJ05 has been canned and they've moved on to a newer 2.1 build.
Yeah, we knew all of this about a week ago in IRC. However, folks who don't go there don't, so its good that mexiken posted this.

This to me is absolutely ludacris..
"Froyo is going to be available shortly after the release.." 6 months later we still are waiting..
"DJ05 is almost ready for release, just a few weeks away.." 2 months later we are still waiting for this... and now its scrapped? Is it really that difficult for Samsung to release a freaking update to fix our phones?
Granted I am running DJ05 (thanks to everyone here!), but for people who don't run the risk of rooting their phones etc.. its absolute BS! So annoying!

Allow me to cue you in as to why that will not happen.
1. Samsung doesn't want to get sued for all the nonworking docks with jacks out there.
2. Verizon doesn't want to get sued by Samsung if they decide to axe the update, for the same reason.
Samsung should just start "leaking" all these updates so the mod community could test and help them weed out the bugs quicker.
Then agian, that might be what happened with DJ05.

I think all of us here would agree that the dev community is much more responsive and capable than any oem has been. New business model, maybe?
Update: Has anyone seen that the Intercept froyo update is rolling out? Is it just something with the sgs that's preventing updates? It's not just cdma & vzw because the other sgs forums are full of people just as frustrated as we are.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
2 things...
First of all, as I understand it, one of the problems with us not being abel to go to FroYo is the file system and its structure and just the underlying layout of the phone in general. If this is the case, how can they possibly fix that over the air, with an update, that doesn't require a complete reboot of the phone (meaning starting over from scratch)? As I understand it, we are hoping the file system changes to something more stable, but will this be possible through an over the air update? That seems really tough and prone to many issues. Maybe I am wrong or simply just don't understand.
Also, I bought this phone because we were promised 2.2 and I am wondering, with it consistently pushed back, at what point can Fascinate users consider a class action law suit for unfulfilled promises? If I had known I was going to be stuck on 2.1 this long, I honestly would have bought an Incredible. At some point they need to be held accountable.
Wow some people seem so upset today. Well I guess you learned your lesson research where you buy your phone from. From what ive read and herd Samsung is notorius for sloppy support. A watched pot never boils. How bout people just live life n have some fun phones arrent everything. Smile did i mention that im drunk at the moment.
Drunk and misled.
Verizon is holding this up by requesting 2.1 bull****.

Is everyone that owns this phone a whiney bish?

Seems to me every post on here lately is just people whining about what they don't have...
I use my phone daily, and get a lot of use out of it.. I obviously am not as obsessed as many of the whinners, but I guess it gives them something to do.
Why don't all the folks whinning about not having 2.2 just start a thread *****ing about not having gingerbread..

F*** off. Don't come on this forum if you dont like it.
The point is that this is one of Sprint's "top of the line" phones. Why don't I have the bells and whistles that the comperable Evo has? I paid a premium to have this device and all the features its capable of. I'd like to be able to enjoy those highlights.
On a side note if Samsung/Sprint did a little bit better job of keeping everyone in the loop on where they were with updates it wouldn't be such a big deal. I don't need specifics but a ballpark timeline would be nice. It's all about managing people's expectations.

Hopefully fix gps / keyboard issues. My gps locked like a glove on DK28 and closer than I have ever seen on DI18. I enjoyed the new style of text messaging too. Its all about user expierience. Flash would be nice too.
I ran the leaked DK28 build for awhile and enjoyed it quite a bit but it obviously wasn't finished. I'd like to give the finished product a run.
Im in no hurry for froyo til mobile ap starts working on it, wireless tether sucks ass in comoarison, also my gps works great on d118 the only thing froyo will bring me is flash and apps2sd which apps2sd is not even a big deal for me im nit running out of space or anything and my phone does everything I want my phone todo.

The main thing I want it on my wife's Epic is for C2DM or cloud to device messaging for third party apps. I'd like it so that apps can use less battery power that do notifications among other things.
Also the JIT's kinda nice too..
I haven't done any complaining about it on the forum but one would think one of the best/most expensive android phones on the market would come with the latest version of Android. Anyway personally I went back to running 2.1 with Phoenix/Syndicate Rom after trying a whole slew of 2.2 ROMs. I'll just wait around for the official Froyo and try not to think about it....

So what comes next?

It seems like we're at a cross-road with our devices. Recent issues clearly have lead to unexpected circumstances, yet we're on the horizon of Gingerbread. Though ACS was huge and there were lots of expectations for ING, clearly a different direction is at hand if you jumped on that train. (Please correct me if I'm wrong to members of both organizations, I think many would welcome continuity, if possible.) Many, like myself, don't have an upgrade at hand or a couple hundred to shell out for a new phone and thus still depend on the community. What are some of the plans that people have for the future, devs and users alike? Having recently rooted and flashed SRF, I am not as aware of functionality of all availible platforms and figure I'm not alone.
I wouldn't mind if this becomes a consolidation thread for multiple threads of the same concept.
I figure its not a big deal. Remember, tomorrow is the beginning of the rapture, so no matter what we all only have until October 21 to live. I figure the Epic4g can last me until then fairly well, even if I have to stick with SRF 1.1.

Once CM7 is complete is it pretty much a fully supported OS? I know the Epic needs to "prove itself," apparently.

I believe it would need the full blessing of the CM Team and get official support. But seeing that some of the other Galaxy S variants have received official support, we're not much farther behind.

This device was screwed from the start... neither sprint or Samsung gave a POS about us...
The future of these forums i see Bonsai Team leading the ROM's until CM7 is out 1000%

That has never stopped a piece of electronics from coming to age late. I wonder if this whole race to GB is their way of realizing the hardware capabilities of Samsung versus the number of eligible customers that will convert to a superior device. Remember, this forum is for those on the cutting edge of the device. Some will continue to buy this device based on the fact that they won't have to live through initial release bugs and then join us. Lots of the gruntwork was thankfully done by k0nane before his departure (thanks k0nane!) but it doesn't mean that we have seen our best Moments, to those making that reference.

Yea true we haven't touched what this bad boy is capable of software is so late right now....
but after the E3D what do you see sprint releasing that is upgrade worthy except for a Sammy GS2 variant.....
ill never give those pathetic bastards my $$ again.
So i'd like to get the E3D on release to be a part of it ....IDK

[Q] Fascinate's death?

Hey everyone,
I was just curious (and a noob so forgive me), I have been noticing a lot of developers switching off to other phones with the departure of jt1134 and the disappearance of ccampos.
Could the Samsung Fascinate's end of life be near? I know there are still developers working but lets face it, the Fascinate isn't as popular as it once was now with the Galaxy Nexus and the Droid Razr.
Well anyways post your thoughts if you agree or disagree that the Fascinate's death is close at hand or not.
Considering my old Eris still has support, I doubt it. Many people won't be due for an upgrade until later this year into early next year, plus the hardware is still very good. JT/sbrissen have done quite a bit of work, and since the Fascinate is a CM supported device we'll see that continue as well.

I hope support stays around for the fascinate for a while. The fascinate is a great phone and i don't plan on changing phone as long as i can keep my fassy up and running.
Completely disagree, literally 4 new ice cream sandwich ROMS were released in the passed two days. Check the development thread...

What has been the case historically with older phones such as the Eris that sarkozy mentioned? I would hope that as old developers leave, new ones arrive.
Plenty of people still working on this phone. I had an Eris and they are still deving for it too. I get bored and flash stuff on there every once in a while just to see whats new and poppin.
hi, im Matt and im a flash addict.

Maybe because it really sounds feminine or it rhymes with sassy. That's my reason

I just picked up a fascinate almost a month ago now. I was coming from the Droid 1, that still sees quite a bit of development. And the Droid as much as I loved it comes nowhere near being as smooth or responsive as this phone. So there is deffinately no hardware restrictions I see causing an end of the road issue. While I havent been around to see what the dev community was, it still seems to be quite healthy from what I've seen lately. Its inevitable that developers move to newer devices but that also opens doors for others to step up to the plate. And as long as there is enough people interested and thankfull for software I think that there will be developers out there willing to work on it.

which are the ice cream sandwich roms?
Stephen K. Spear posted 3 different ics roms in the development section a couple days ago.

I think we should find a way to help those guys, teamhackingsung along with independent developers are working hard to get ICS up on our fassy. I wish I knew how to code or I would be all for helping them out, I have to give them much respect for what they do to fix these phones left without a paddle (so to speak). I still find it amazing how some developers do it for free and just want a simple thank you, does anyone know how to code? I really want to help these guys.
Dang...I feel for you guys. I used my Fascinate as an MP3 player for a while after I got my Nexus. Then one day I decided to flash one of JT's newest builds and it wouldn't boot and couldn't get into recovery. Didn't feel like odining and it's been sitting by my router ever since.

Zacisblack... No one likes a bragger...LOL.
In all seriousness, I believe that the Facinate and its developers will be here for the long haul. As long as there are phones out there and people don't have the $$'s to upgrade as often as they like do to the economy. This is my 3 cents worth.

Lol donate it to tk-glitch or something. Heck, at least sell it =)

Looks like VZW is offering upgrades to folks with issues after the OTA GB update. We may be losing even more Fascinate owners.
