Ok I was thinking to myself & reading through all the forums & thinking the only thing stopping us from rocking out froyo/Gingerbread action on are samsung Fascinate's is the kernel issue right ?
off the beaten track but need to read to understand the train of thought:
Well being a former 2 week droid X owner & me being the modder I am I rooted it & as many of you Know the droid X has a locked bootloader but that has not stopped a well known android developer by the name of Jrummy to Develop a app to Overclcok the Droid X even with the locked bootloader but still the system is reading that the phone is still running a 1ghz speeds
Main Idea :
Well I was thinking why cant a more experienced dev than myself as I just started out as a developer a more experienced dev develop a app along the same lines to trick are fascinates into running Froyo/Gingerbread roms but still using the kernel we currently are using I am guessing the kernels might need to be tweaked but I think this is possible I believe if a more experienced dev contacted Jrummy he would give the source code to them to develope off of I am not sure but pretty sure he has it @ GITHUB

Actually he is half right. Punk.kaos currently has froyo and ginger running on the eris? He also apparently had froyo booting on the fascinate as well. And there is no source for the eris for either? Any clarification on this would prove to be very educational for all....
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
It's a nice thought, and one day we might see it. One thing is YES GB as well as FROYO have been seen booting on the Galaxy S phones but they have been GSM based phones not Verizon CDMA phones which have a totally different system writes.
Best bet would be to check on the IRC channels and see whats going on there, and see how things progress, great idea but not anytime in the near future, welcome to Samsung.
Cheers.

I came from the eris to the fascinate, and yeah there are now a ton of eris roms running froyo on the 2.6.29 kernel. And as I understand it, kaos is also working on gingerbread for the eris as well, and has a gb rom running (tho it still has problems). But to get to the point where the eris is at now, as far as it being able to run froyo perfectly with no bugs or glitches, it took a pretty long damn time. Its not nearly as simple as fooling the system into thinking that we're running a 2.6.32 or .35 kernel, unfortunately. There were tons of things that didnt work at first. In fact, almost nothing worked at first. But kaos and the other devs kept at it, and with each new release, they'd fix 1 or more of those things broken. Of course, they had help from a bunch of hero devs that were simultaneously working on getting froyo to work on the cdma hero.
My point is, however, that our devs are already working on this, but right now there are still some huge issues that make the roms/kernels far from ready for public release. But there is no reason to fear, as the devs will continue to do their thing, and even if samsung puts off releasing froyo for another year, I promise you that before too long the devs will have found a way to give us what we want.. namely, froyo and gb!

it isnt exactly close to a released rom yet... they got the kernal to boot...
still work to do im sure... but i just started to monitor IRC today...
looks like i'll be in irc a little more often now.
Birdman was getting the FIRST build cooked last night, I'm pretty sure there will have to be plenty of testing & fixes probably no where near a stable release. Just be patient, asking "Where is Gingerbread?!" Is not going to make it get here any sooner.
In IRC Birdman said he could have a rom in a day...if he had that much time. It'll get done when it gets done. I also heard that the aosp stuff will be able to be ported to gingerbread.
I imagine the build he's working from is based on the Nexus S, which would be AOSP from the start.
May not be the case however.
Which channel is that discussion happening in? I'd like to follow it, myself.

See, but that that link plus IRC don't mean anything just yet.

Yup, we should all support our devs with encouragement and donations so that they don't jump ship to another phone. It seems like there are much fewer devs for the Fascinate than other phones so it would suck if they moved to the new stuff hitting Verizon soon.

I agree with the support-the-devs sentiment, but the only imminent releases on Verizon look to be an Evo rehash, a Desire Z rehash, and the iPhone. Given the latter, I wouldn't be surprised if Verizon lagged on true high-end Android releases for a while.

There is no other version of gingerbread. The only skinned version I've seen is the PlayStation phone and that hasn't been released. No altered form of gingerbread exists right now.
Hey I saw that the super clean was now titled "retired" on the thread. Does this mean the dev is now working on a completley new rom? Or does it mean that he is moved on? Does anybody know some specific details for sure? Thanks

Its not a fact, its what I have been realizing. I am inferring. You see, most of our best developers have gotton tb's. They will still work on the fascinate , but less and less until they have completeley put everything towards the thunderbolt. I think anyone can easily infer that

It'd be nice if you didn't conflate "he said" with "I inferred" when you're posting about things- whether or not it's right, you should distinguish the two, to avoid confusion, and the inevitable 'where did he say that!'.

its easy to infer things...but its best to be careful when posting that stuff...ur post did make it seem like u read a specific quote somewhere
and did a lot of the devs get tbolts? sure they did.
but also the usual suspects still built kernels right away and adryn has been waiting for something new to actually release....superclean was tweaked about as good as it could be with what was available until very recently
sirgatez is busy but plugs away at the fascinate whenever he can...hes on the record as saying his tbolt was mostly to secure unlimited 4g and wont work on it for at least 3 months....
jt is a machine and has will put out a ton of code changes, releases in a short span...then take some time off...
and pk whether hes released something new or not recently is giving it his all on cm7
imnuts/nemesis are still pumping out kernel updates frequently
theres not much to worry about

It's in the works. Cmenard has fixed rainbows (proof). (He's a frackin' beast). White has all his magic done on it. I'm the only failure! I can't get the damn GPS to work.
So yeah, that's all we're missing. Vibrant uses a different GPS binary to communicate with the hardware versus other phones like I9K and Cappy (we're the ONLY phone that does this, BS right?). I've been working with cmenard to even build a custom kernel to call that binary just like the 2.2 ROMs and still nothing. I think I'm either missing something extremely simple, or it's not possible. Eugene is smarter than me so hopefully he figured something out.

Thought so, well, I read that thread before and in there Eugene didn't EVER say that he had a working GPS. What he said was that fixing it wasn't that hard and mentioned the files.
But I guess people love to stare on a bright side that doesn't even exist.
Well, now that most of us have FroYo, I thought that we might be lacking something to WILDLY speculate about... sooooo GINGERBREAD ANYONE!?
Some of our friends in Europe already have gingerbread on their Galaxy S's, so the question is, when do we get ours?
Now I know that it took us over six months to get FroYo, but that was due to some sort of disagreement with Verizon and Samsung (most likely over Bing). However, since we now have 2.2, I would *assume* that they have gotten past that and that any future updates we get will most likely come in a more timely fashion.
If things go accordingly, and Samsung and Verizon play nice, then I would assume that we would be getting gingerbread around September or October (based on how long it took FroYo to be distributed to other carriers).
What do you guys think?
P.S. I'll post any major updates that appear in the media.

OP: I think the gingerbread update is going to take even longer than froyo because the gx2 and the charge are going to be out. Samsung is most likely going to update those before they even think about us.
Unfortunately, the truth is: we don't know when the heck Gingerbread is coming for the Fascinate. And with Samsung's somewhat random updates, its really hard to guess even a general date.
If we can get CM7 and maybe officially supported by CM. who cares about stock GB. If JT and PK's work becomes bug free, and it looks like they have done great job, I think we might see gold.

Completely untrue. The droid name means nothing. Carrier and manufacturer are the same. Hardware is the exact same as a the fascinate other than the fact that it has a 4g radio. Its a last gen phone in the very beginning of a new generation... No one cares about it. If anything, its twice the orphan than the fascinate was.

But you see, the large dev community is the WOLFPACK! So it makes sense ...okay maybe I should drop this subject before I get attacked by a tiny chinese man jumping out of the trunk of a car..

Completely untrue. The droid name means nothing. Carrier and manufacturer are the same. Hardware is the exact same as a the fascinate other than the fact that it has a 4g radio. Its a last gen phone in the very beginning of a new generation... No one cares about it. If anything, its twice the orphan than the fascinate was.

Completely wrong, sammy has a total different hardware than any phone available... they make their own parts, even the screen and i think even the cables and other things.... so never compare a sammy to a motorolla or what ever

How much do you want to bet the Droid Charge will see Gingerbread and more minor updates than the Fascinate just because it's in the Droid lineup? Both phones are nearly identical when it comes to software. Nearly every phone in the Droid lineup has had great support(except for the Eris and maybe the Pro).
I honestly don't think the fascinate will ever see gingerbread in any sort of official way.
I've made Espresso ROM For The Droid X. And Will Now Finally Get It To The Fascinate. My Plan Was To Get It To All The Galaxy S Varients, Nexus One, Samsung Nexus S, Samsung Droid Charge, HTC My Touch 4G, HTC Droid Incredible, Wildfire, HTC Hero, Original HTC Desire, HTC G2 (Desire Z) And Aria.
When Will Espresso ROM Be Released?
Later This Week.
(If You Search Over On The Droid X Forums, You'll Find My ROMs Including Espresso, & Doubleshot)
awesome, more "coming soon" threads...ugh

His point is that JTs work on the fascinate is the reason all of these other mtd based roms are being ported to our device now.

Umm..so far all the Gingerbread roms that are out are still having some issues...low in- call volume, no hardware acceleration(videos), no flashlight...etc...and aren't quite fully functional as Froyo is just yet..which is perfectly understandable...
I was just wondering if your up coming rom will still have those issues....or if you are going to blow our minds with a fully functional Gingerbread rom for the Fasciante...

Completely understand your frustration. Unfortunately, if the devs don't have a full, stable source drop to work with, we really can't hold the current crop of common /generally recognized GB issues against them. Heck, they're probably more frustrated about it than the rest of us
OP, I look forward to the upcoming release and maturation of your project!
Another option would be terrific, but good luck with the SD card!

dont feel like its personal if you are met with flak about "new and upcoming" roms here. you can thank Tonu for that.
but good luck either way man!
My point is that no legit devs post coming soon ****...they work on something then release it...hype is just lame and time after time these threads end in disappointment or the rom just doesn't offer anything worth a hype thread

yes on our *website* we have a coming soon tab..we dont make those posts on xda
if he has something good...then great
the work would stand on its own without hype...but i looked at his post history and there are nothing but coming soon threads for various phones
*if* one is going to do this type of thread, at least list what the rom is comprised of (aosp, tw, other) what differentiates it from other existing roms (besides a theme, there are enough throms out there) and why it needs to be hyped up
either way ill eject myself from the thread now

I do know one of my roms will have 2.4 Ice Cream when google releases the SDK. But most are AOSP coupled with Touchwiz. They will also come with my version of The JIT Compiler. They will also come with my version of build.prop tweaks. And more.
