Custom ROM environment - Fascinate General

How is the environment on the Fascinate? I've noticed leak based roms but are there any aosp builds like cyanogen?
Im currently on the Droid X but the encrypted bootloader hinders it. Is the bootloader opened fully on the Fascinate?
Thanks

I just came from the x, you wouldn't be disappointed

So what type of rom selection is there?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

Not much development until 2.2 hits. No functional aosp, most of if not all are just debloated stock roms.

So what's the hold up? Is there a security feature in place that prevents building or porting other 2.2/2.3 roms?
Also, wasn't there a port of gingerbread to galaxy s phones? What prevents this on the fascinate.

The Ril is holding us back which is the thing that allows us to call, text, ect. and Samsung gave us a crap code which essentially didn't work I think, but our devs got it working.

OK good to know.
Sounds like more hope than the encrypted bootloader on the X.

What radio are you running now? Check MyDroidWorld.com. P3 has the most up to date system, kernal, and baseband packaged seperately and flashable through bootstrap.

Out of curiosity why are you wanting to update your radio? If u have a stock rooted phone just go to about phone, and system updates and that should give you the newest radio possible.

Why bc when my friend updated his he is getting better service I just wanted to see if it was possible
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Flashing the wrong radio is a very good way to turn your phone into a paper weight, at least for a while. Unless you are getting terrible service, I wouldn't worry about flashing a new radio. I'm not sure you can on the dx anyway.

You might be able to with an sbf, buylt I've been over in the fascinate and incredible forums in the land of unlocked bootloaders where anything is possible. So hit my thanks meter just because I'm going to tell you I don't haveva ****ing clue
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
i am almost certain that the bootloader will not let you change the RADIO and it def wont let you touch the KERNEL
HTC and other companies dont lock there bootloaders like moto does your best bet is to wait there is talk of moto releasing the restrictions on the this to allow developers more access to there hardware and if or when that happens this will be easier but until then i would say your SOL

[Q] Kernel for Froyo

Just wondered if there was a custom Kernel for Froyo or one in the works?

Birdman just pushed source for a custom one to his github likeblast night. There are still bugs in it such as voice and data bugs. But that's it. Hopefully something will come out soon.

Okay, great. Can't wait to see some new growth goodness on the froyo.

Full access

Has P3Droid obtained full access to the X? Or was the GB leak only allowed because it was a leak of the official. Will CM7 be possible one day?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
The only real progress I know of is the team working with kexec(sp). They bypassed the bootloader, but need drivers. Dev is pretty still...
As for P3, I was sure he had a dev phone that wasn't locked down at all. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
No p3 has dev phones. I think they got the wifi driver and are waiting on bluetooth. Although I haven't seen any new posts on the official bluetpoth thread for a while.

Wasn't there something a few weeks ago where someone 'discovered' the bootloader keys and told Motorola to release them or he would? Or is my brain playing tricks again?

Incredible Gingerbread stock Rom release

Has there been a leak or stock release of GB for the original VZW Droid incredible?
I've looked around but only see references to cooked GB time.
Thank you

Sorry, I'm actually on miui. And
I've never flashed it either, however I do know that there are some very small bugs left in it. I think a certain settings menu force closes. But it's nothing really big. It lists the bugs in the thread. Sorry I can't link to it, I'm mobile right now!
Sent from my HTC Incredible
I take it miui is a custom rom?
I just went to the op links and there is mention of AOSPs. I take it that's the Rom to flash then the sense has to be flashed after that?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
No, they are separate things altogether.
Sense roms are based on HTC's roms, AOSP roms are based on Google's android code.
AOSP = android open source project.
Thank you for the explanation
Now all I have to do is find the elusive 2.0 beta leak of GB called liberation 2.0.
Lot of talk on it but no links except for 1.1 and 1.0 which I believe are froyo based
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
Yes if you have the liberation 2.0 gb leak that would be great

What do you look for in a rom?

Recently I began wondering what the community looks for most in a rom.
Whether it be many custom themes, battery life, or support.
What are the things you look for in a rom?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
This is my opinion: (in order of importance)
Debloated-performance-stability-battery life-new/improved functionality-visual appeal
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA Premium App
I don't use custom ROMs, but if I did, I'd look for the size of the user base before committing myself.
