is there any way, us eclair rom users will be able to install the FROYO market on the rom without havin' to flash froyo?
i'm just askin' because, to me the 2.1 roms are much more stable and faster with no problems than froyo.
i love the market though, so i was wonderin'...
thanks.
Asking a QUESTION in the DEVELOPMENT Thread and not the Q&A Thread. That's a gasser. On the side line, let's go.

I was a noob a few weeks ago so I will give you some advice:
Read all you can first, then reread stuff all over again. Development Forum is a good place to start.
"Stock" android always has extras - device drivers for a phone, kernel enhancements, etc. If you are looking for a build without AT&T stuff, then there are some i9000 Roms, that can be installed, but you need to install the Captivate kernel. All of these are development builds and have some bugs. They also are for the EU Galaxy, and they have different Samsung software included as well as different menus.
There are guys working on building a plain vanilla 2.1 ROM with the source code, but it will take some time.
Is there anyway that i can put TouchWiz back on my phone. I am currently running a 2.2 bases rom and was wondering is it even possible to use touchwiz with the 2.2 rom?
Please help.
It depends on what rom and kernel you're using. I'd suggest you go to the rom/kernel thread and ask that question. Usually in the first post for each rom/kernel, there's a link for TW Launcher, if it is compatible.
oh ok. Thanks

Hi, I'm not new to rooting/flashing. My sister-in-law wants her Fascinate to be faster and lag free. So I'm here to help her but got questions. Is EB01 the stock kernel? I'm looking a stock kernel + voodoo. She's gonna wait for offical release of 2.2 on her phone so I'm looking for 2.1 stock + voodoo. But if I have too, I can flash a 2.2 ROM and tell her that VZW can screw.
Please and thanks in advance.
EB01 is the version of the latest leak of 2.2, not the version of a kernel.
Search the Development forum for Voodoo. There are quite a few Voodoo kernels out there for 2.1. The ones from jt1134 are pretty popular. Also, adrynalyne has some test kernels available. I was using his Test 5 (non-voodoo) for quite a while and it was pretty stable. There are other developers with Voodoo kernels as well, so look through the search results and figure out what you like best.
The one thing to keep in mind is that some of the newer 2.1 kernels are only compatible with the latest officially released firmware (DL09). You might need to upgrade her phone (OTA) before proceeding with adding these newer 2.1 kernels.
There is a Voodoo kernel available for 2.2 currently, but you would have to upgrade everything to 2.2 (i.e. EB01). There is a thread for it by jt1134, and it's a stock 2.2 kernel with Voodoo and custom boot animation support.
can i go from a gb radio to a froyo radio were can i find a froyo radio im using black hole rom and wanna try virus rom
You might want to check the forum dedicated to your specific phone model as there tend to be more users with experience for that device. My understanding is that you must use a 2.2 modem for 2.2 roms and 2.3 modems on 2.3 roms. But I am relatively new to this.
Not entirely sure on this, I'd look around often times, google is your friend!
Ok Guys.......here comes a Noob question....
To start off with I am familiar with rooting & flashing my Epic 4G.
But my wife has an Evo Shift & I'm not familiar with the ROM's out for the Shift.
Since the GB update rolled out her phone has been lacking & a little buggy.
She complained about the launcher redrawing, checked it & she is almost out of memory (internal) with very few apps installed.
My question is: I'm looking for your opinions on a good stable ROM with the bloat removed to free up space. She liked the phone better with Froyo so that could be an option.
Thanks in advance.
You could try Supreme sense 8.0 its a hybrid rom of 2.1 and 3.0 sense its very smooth and stable ive been running it for a month now no random reboots or nothing only bloatware is sprint hotspot and thats all.
this article might help install: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201233
Closes to froyo is the mikshift rom expect its gingerbread and from what i've read has no problems and is closes to stock
She's probably used to Sense and would complain but if you really want to free up memory then I'd suggest an AOSP ROM like CM7. Or she might like MIUI.

If you want something that is very close to stock. You can try MikShift v1.1, it's Froyo 2.2 . Or if you prefer 2.3 Gingerbread, MikShifted G v1.76. Both are Stable, Smooth, and very quick. Even on the stock Kernel, without Overclocking.
supreme sense 8 or cm7 nightly.
