Since Daydreamstars has songs like "Love Me Do" and "Rock and Roll All Nite" which have no source of ever being made in their soundtrack list, I think it is safe to assume that the rumor of a JONAS season one soundtrack ever being made is false. While that is disappointing, that doesn't mean that there aren't full versions of songs such as Scandanavia. All we have to do now is wait for John Fields to look around for the songs in his files after he comes home from his vacation. Another positive is that we debunked another internet rumor. Since the tracklist for the fake soundtrack has changed many times throughout our journey, someone should just delete the info on the fake soundtrack from Wikipedia and the Lost Media Archive.
For Wikipedia, I went in yesterday and removed the two bonus tracks from the track listing and then I wrote that the soundtrack was never intended to be released, citing John Fields' tweet. I'm hoping that's good enough. I don't have a Wikia account currently but I'm unsure if the entire article should be deleted or just the cover art/rumored tracks. That is, assuming a user can simply delete an article.
Hopefully once John Fields gets back from vacation he'll upload what he has, and if not, I could always just ask him. If we could get the original recordings, that might still count as found media, even if it's not an official release per se.
I asked last night, but so far no answer. I'll edit this post if I get a response in the next day or so. If not, I'm unsure how to proceed since I don't want to bother him.
Thought I'd give an update - it's been 11 days and still no response from John Fields. My assumption was that he wasn't online, but he seems to have recently posted some tweets. Not sure if he just missed the tweet, or if he hasn't found anything. Any other suggestions on options I'd have if he doesn't reply? Any other people who you think might have info?

John Fields is the best person we can contact, so I suggest you contact him again on twitter or maybe email him (you just need to find his email address).
His email address is on his website, so it's publicly available. I'm just hesitant to contact him a third time because I don't want to be a bother to him. I'm debating if his not replying is a sign he's bothered and I shouldn't try to contact him a third time, or if he just missed it within his notifications.
After John Fields confirmed that it wasn't meant to be released I assumed that Daydreamstars most likely has false info - after all, that's straight from the horse's mouth, unless there's a possibility Disney had other plans. I feel it's likely however that if it was intended to get a release he would know. Maybe it's just rumors? But if you want to contact them feel free.
I actually got another reply this morning from a mixer, Paul David Hager. He says that he and John Fields went through "all the songs" together, so now all that's left is to see what "all the songs" refers to. Maybe John Fields will have them in his files?
I think "all the songs" means all the songs featured in JONAS Season 1. Paul said he and John went through all of the songs. Does that mean they couldn't find any full songs? That's probably why he hasn't responded back. Even if the full versions do exist, they may be unable to release them due to copyright.
Another link that says the soundtrack was confirmed by Walt Disney Records, even though John Fields says it was never meant to be released.
This page also doesn't have a source, just like DayDreamStars.
If John Fields said it was never meant to be released, then why do these blogs say it was confirmed by Walt Disney Records?
And with no source, even though the rest of the news they post has sources?
The mind wonders.
The blogs may have inaccurate information. Unless somebody can find a source, we can't confirm anything. Would Disney or Jonas Brothers PR be able to comment on the matter?
