samsung fascinate

Hi, this is my first post on these forums so if this is not in the right category I am sorry. Anyway, I decided I wanted to re-root my Samsung Fascinate because some reason it "unrooted" itself somehow. I don't know how it happened, but I couldn't turn on wireless tether or any of those sort of...

Hello all, I just joined this forum :) I have fascinate and I mostly watch videos on it (about 700mb) that I transfer from my pc. But it seems that the transfer speed is quiet slow as it hovers around 4mb/sec and as far as I know I have USB 2.0 so it should be a lot faster. Has anyone...

I have a Samsung Galaxy S i500 that I just bought. I've been told it's basically a Samsung Fascinate. My carrier (Alltel) is way behind in smartphones, but they're the only carrier to get a signal at my house. They tend to lag pretty far behind as far as the newest phones. This is the coolest...

How to flash ICS on the Samsung Fascinate! I've been trying to make this as simple as possible. You can go from any build to Teamhacksung's ICS by following these instructions. I hope this helps some :) I recommend this build of ICS because it is what JT started on and then handed over to...

I just got a replacement Samsung Fascinate. I re-linked with Google to restore my settings and contacts. Now, however, almost all of my contacts are showing the phone numbers and email addresses twice. One shows it as a Google contact number and the other as a phone contact number. How do I get...

Hello, Sorry if this is a n00bish question but I haven't been able to find the answer. I have a Samsung Fascinate that I no longer use as my phone but I use it to listen to music while working out. I would like to upgrade the phone from Froyo to Gingerbread, but I can't seem to find a way to...

Aight... I have a Fascinate (well 2 actually but I'm talking about only one of them here ;) ) that is rooted. It is currently running ICS 4.0.1, and when I boot it up it says "CynogenMod" or something like that. That is all I know about this phone because I bought it like this. I need to...

I have been using 2.3.5 on my Verizon Samsung Fascinate and had it rooted. I did a factory reset on it because I want to sell it. It has the "superuser" icon after reformating. I recall I ran a bunch of steps to root, maybe even installed some applications post rooting (busybox??), but I lost...

Hi, I have limited data minutes, and am obsessive about both getting my new Fascinate to default to Wifi and also about saving the battery. (Long days away from home, often in nature with no plug-in.) Someone suggested downloading Juice Defender and Advanced Task Killer Free. OK, great. So I...

I've flashed it three times, correctly, with Odin. When I boot the phone into recovery for the first time it's CWM, but after that it goes back to stock... The last time I loaded everything on the SD card (ROM and GAPPS) flashed them via CWMR and when my phone finally started up it was back to...

Hi, My wife has the Fascinate and it's running 2.3.5 and not rooted. Her maps & navigation haven't been working. I downloaded "GPS Status" and cannot get it to show any "fix/sats" no matter how long I wait. On my Thunderbolt using the same app the fix/sats shows up immediately. I went under...

So today I pull my phone out of my pocket and it is telling me that the usb is connected. Restarted and that did nothing. Did a battery pull and that did nothing. Anyone else have this issue? Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

One of my main reasons to root my phone was to remove bloatware. I've done several (Using Titanium Backup) and am going back thru my phone again and want to remove some more. I have a Verizon Wireless Samsung Galaxy S. My question lies in the following apps... if I can remove them: Allshare...

I have read other posts to agree with this. I have some questions / concerns however. Perhaps you can shed some light on? 1. I find CM7 near-perfect. However, there are several issues that keep it from scoring a full 10 of 10... a) upon making/answering a call, the volume is blasting and...

Why won't my earbuds work with Pandora, on my Phone?

Hi, I got a used Fascinate and did not receive a micro SD card with it. I admit I do not understand much about memory or about SD cards, so need to be educated like the noob I am, thank you. :o Advice about what kind of SD card to get? What should I look for? What size? (Prefer not to spend...

I'm running 2.3.5, CWM 2.5.1.2, Titanium Backup, ROM Manager Premium, and I think VOODOO (2.6.35.7 kernel), but I'm not sure. Should I install a custom ROM or did...
