Telus Fascinate Clockwork plz help

Okay, for months now, ive gone through 2 phones and done more bricking then flashing I have done lots and lots of reserach and am getting to the point where i just want to stay stock. Im rooted, and every time i try to flash clockwork through odin i either get a fail, or if i keep trying sometimes it goes through and says pass but it gets stuck on a force start loop and i cant do anything in recovery menu...so i end up fash stock files for telus to return the phone to its new state. I really want to get clockwork on here and try some roms. If anyone could help it would be awesome.
Thanks, Mike.

What version of clockwork recovery are you trying to flash with odin?
From what I can tell you should be using the one from the vibrant?
good day.

Okay thank you. I'm at work right now and I will try tonight

On 2.1 I flashed the Vibrant version (using ROM Manager)
From I have read, with the 2.2 update installed you can't flash it (yet).

If it's on DL09 you can flash DJ05 or DL09 roms. Those should work just fine.

Thanks I am not a complete noob, I have worked with the vibrant, epic, captivate, mytouch 4g and hd2, so things are somewhat similar. Are there any solid froyo roms? From what I saw any thread that mentioned froyo are alpha or beta.
Also is this the correct process just to be 100% clear:
root
get rom manager and flash clockwork recovery through rom manager
flash rom

Yes. But you missed two steps.
1. Installing clockwork recovery is more involved on this pda. You need to download a patch for clockwork recovery and flash it using odin. (hitting the flash button in RM copies an update.zip to your sd card, which is important too but not the only step)
Use this guide or equivalent:

2. Also, before you install your first ROM, always perform a backup through Rom Manager or recovery first! You should always know a route back to stock.

Thanks. I can not believe that fascinate users only have alpha froyo builds! I got rid of my vibrant because I had enough with froyo.

You can thank Samsung for the delays, since they released almost useless source code for the radio interface layer (RIL) for the Fascinate. It took combined efforts of jt1134 and punk.kaos to reverse engineer a working RIL to get as far as they have. Now that there's been a leak of an official Froyo update, including a new kernel, I imagine we'll be seeing beta releases sometime in the near future. Oh, and don't forget that GB is being worked on as well.

If we do not backup we are asking for trouble and hours lost in a day/night.

Going Back to My Stock Eclair

Dear All
before i restore my last eclair stock rom by red cwm, what should i do??
right now i using 2.4 voodoo with enable lagfix.
Do i have to :
1. go to cwm, disable lagfix
2. wipe all
3. restore eclair backup
4. reboot, flash by odin di01modem.tar
5. that's it
is it work to get me back my eclair stock rom??
or i just follow this Link
Odin Restore files to get you to stock
or
[ODIN] Full DI01 ODIN Package
Thx

Odin for full di01 will do the trick, no need for anything else.

It is my understanding that if you run the complete odin package it will overwrite even voodoo.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

i have killed my phone 3 times not disabling voodoo correctly when flashing roms. and each and every time adrynalyne's full di01 restore package has overwritten the whole thing for the win.
so if you are going back to bone stock, unrooted, full bloated eclair, (ie because you need to bring the phone back to verizon for warranty work) then that is your best bet. it will indeed wipe any and all voodoo whatnot from your phone.

Isn't it fine just to bring it back to stock DL09 Eclair, since that's the latest official OTA release? I don't see why you need to go back all the way to DI01 if you're planning on returning it. But I guess in the end of the day it won't really matter either way.

It doesn't really matter, all of the all in one vzw fascinate odins will work.
You technically don't _need_ to odin anything but the modem though.
For me, there was no lagfix and I had a working cwr/rom manager, so I did it in three quick steps.
1. Nandroid restore my DL09 setup.
2. Odin DL09 modem over EB01.
3. install a DL09 kernel from clockwork recovery and wipe the cache.
I was exactly where I was before with no headache.
Nandroid doesn't flash modem nor kernel.
However the all in ones may be faster if you are building from scratch (and absolutely the fastest route to stock). You should pick an all in one with the modem and kernel you want or you will have to do steps 2 & 3 either way.

I agree, but Froyo does make is a little more faster but with leaked ROMs they aren't fully tested, so that's why they are a little buggy, and thats why we have great devs here that fix em as soon as we find em

I found that turning of gps when not in use(I never use it) stopped the battery drain.

I also want to go back to eclair and cant find it anywhere. I have my phone on metro and I cant get my web and mms to work, also my phone shows only 1.47 g internal memory. I bought this phone used so who knows what was dont to it. Anyone have an idea where to get eclair???
Edit- Installed this via odin as instructed. worked great took me back to 2.1 update 1 which is what i had when i got the phone. Will continue to work on the mms and web issue. Oh and still have the memory issue

[Q] Can you go from eb13 to dk28?

Well im new to the Rom world and to forum. So..... I guess this is my official start to stardom, lol.
I have a question for all you genieus out there... Can you use odin to go back to dk28(if even needed)?
Like I started to say im new to the great world of roms!!! ive tried syndicatefrozen and it was great for the few hours that work. NOW, i would like to try trinity but it looks like you need to be running dk28 and i cant seem to get it that way?
(so you know i believe i have the correct .tar but cant find pit... if that matters)
PLEASE HELP!!!! and Thank You

You don't need the pit file just put the tar file under PDA and make sure only auto reboot is checked

I suggest you check the wiki. You will find odin + pit, the proper dk28, & good instructions.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SPH-D700

Why go to dk28 when there is ec05 out? Try to flash a rom based on ec05. Also viper synergy is based on eb13 at the moment. Going g to dk28 is not a good idea. It was a test build. To many bugs compared to the builds we have now with the custom kernels
Sent From My Evo Killer!!!

nice i wasnt sure if you could use the old roms on new software

Wiki has all the information that is needed.

Yes u can odin to anything at any time.
Some roms can run on higher modems than there built for (a dk28 rom on ec05 modem).
U really only to odin modems for upgrading, rom zips contain the rest.

Epic ROM flashing question

Ok, following instructions on theunlockr.com, I rooted using superoneclick v1.9.1. No problem there, was pretty easy. I backed up everything with mybackup app from the market, and am looking to see what these custom roms are all about. From the same site they have instructions to load a custom rom on your android phone using ROM Manager from the market. While researching that app a bit, I've seen a few posts saying not to use that app on the Epic cause it doesn't always work right. Granted most of the posts I seen were a couple months old, so maybe the app updates since then fixed that. But, also in their instructions, they never said anything about having to do the modem, or partition from rfs to ext. The Viper Trinity rom I was going to flash says "EXT4-RFS DK28 Dual" so I assume it will work with either file system. I'm sot sure which I have. I do know I'm on Froyo EC05 curently. Could I just put the zip in my sd root and flash with rom manager or do I need to get that odin program and do the three button reboot and all that? Do I have to somehow get DK28 on my phone, will it work with EC05? Thanks for your patients. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Don't use a DK28 ROM.

You need to flash the Rom through Clockworkmod, but I don't recommend any DK28 Rom's they are EXTREMELY outdated (based on a Froyo leak from December). Go into the development section and download the newest One Click Root and use that to properly re-root your phone.

Lol...you bandit, I was just going to drop that link
Anyhow, all those videos are up to date.....watch'em!!!!

cool, thanks. I will watch that. Are there any roms you might recommend? I just seen viper quite a bit, also cyanogen seems to get mentioned a lot. Obviously performance is the main concern. Battery life, over clocked, tether, no bloat, etc. But something with nice features too. Curb appeal I guess you could say.
No as far as re-rooting, should I un-root with the program I used to root, or will the rooter you linked me to just overwrite/re-root what was already done?

Click the link in my signature.
The other popular choices are Bonsai (can't link, easy to find), midNIGHT (dev section), and Viper EB13 (dev section).

Op: paragraphs are your friend...

Also don't use ROM manager, it does not play well with the Epic.

Awesome! Thank you for the link to the videos. Everything worked with no problems at all.
Tried Midnight, and now currently running Syndicate Fully Loaded. I had flashed the Emotionless Beast theme over Midnight, and will probably put it over Syndicate today. Pretty nice theme. Viper looks pretty sweet but I guess its not ec05 ready yet, and in the video he said Cyanogen isn't quite done yet.
I watched the vid about flashing the Vision kernel and overclocking it. Would that be better than the Twilight kernel that Syndicate comes with?

Midnight is the most stable tom right now... when acs out our their bnext version, that'll be the best rom. By stable I mean tom working without a lot of reflashing an random freezes
