[Q][Donation Fund] ROM development..lets get some interest, Infuse CM7,MiUi :)

Hey guys and gals, I'd like to get an idea for how much interest we have in buying a few infuse devices for some of the Cyananogen team and/or the Miui team.
I first want to understand how many people would be interested in this and thereafter i will reach out to some people to talk to Koush and company. You don't have to donate now just pledge a donation for a specific ROM.
The thought behind this is that if we can get either of these two teams or both of them a device the may not have considered once they spend time with such a beautiful device they will be more interested in development for ths phone sooner.
If we dont get enough interest in donations we'll just have to wait on a few devs to mosey on over here. Your choice!
here is an example where this worked well

Imho, if u want MIUI - get an iPhone, it's a direct copy pretty much.
Now CM7 is a different topic, would love that!

Yes great idea!

Now can someone please explain what both ROMs are or Do compared to what is already on it. I am coming from a tilt 2 so I am a little lost on it all.
Thanks

There's a video tour at CyanogenMod's website that you can scope out here.
More info about MIUI can be located here.

As a new Infuse owner I really hope we can get some development going asap! I would def be up to donating if thats what it takes to get development started!!!

I didn't know MIUI = iphone
no matter it' sense, touchwiz, or motoblur, I always replace it with launcherpro.
I just love the MIUI phone dialer and power menu that has all the shortcuts I needed.

Put me down for $20.00 on the MIUI
I will do $20.00 for cm7 also

Oh yea i forgot to mention I am down to donate $40 for each it we can make this happen. I had CM7 on my HTC and loved it but I am also loving what I have seen with MIUI!!!

CM7 count me in
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App

im going down for $10 on cm7 or cm8 if ice-cream comes out. not that i'd even use it. the way i see it is that miui exists on the galaxy s using a cm kernel.the sgs miui will likely flash on this once we have a aosp kernel. miui could also be ported onto our base rom like it started for the fascinate but it is not as clean that way and means you will be behind the curve on os version. if we are gonna get a totaly custom non samsung rom it makes most sence to build it off the newest nexus sources so i think cm is the clear winner

$60 for CM7
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

Definitely count me in on a bounty

I'm getting this phone tomorrow and would definitely donate a few dollars for Cyanogenmod.

Loved cm7 on the captivate and inspire. Put me down for $ 10 for cm 7.
Couldn't care less about miui though.

this is already done it is the same as the captivate and is cake! just need root. you can delete or freaze tethermanager and the phone lets you use ap mode. i have it all over the tether thread but it's like people read the title and decide to put in their $.02 and not read the replies before them.

Hey guys, this is my first android device, but I do have some experience with software development. Is there anyone who could post some guides, tutorials, links, or downloads on developing for this phone? I believe that we could have a lot more material if we have more competent developers, so please help out. I will update the OP to include provided links or downloads.

Welcome to Android and goodluck with your InFuSe!
I myself was always a Windows Mobile guy up until almost 3 years ago when i got my 1st Android device, an HTC Supersonic aka EVO 4G. Since then its been down hill, very similar to a bad bad Crack addiction, with ROM Flashing as my temporary fixxx.
I like my InFuSe(s), hopefully one day i'll love my InFuSe(s). My only complaint is that it is too new and there is too little going on with the device. Thank god my HTC Desire HD aka Inspire 4G keeps me on my feet and flash-happy, but instantly i miss that HUGE Super AMOLED Plus display and must go back to a bone-stock device.
I bought a 2nd InFuSe to have as a side by side testing device and / or to donate to the right MIUI dev to get us on the MIUI boat and later found out that we need to get CyanogenMod going before we have a chance at MIUI...
Again, good luck with your InFuSe and with Android. I have a lil sayin: "Don't worry, your not gonna break it unless you throw it, frustration is a bicht!"

You should totally think more about donating your extra infuse to a cyanogen mod dev so we can get that ball rolling. That would definitely get some more stuff going on with this phone.

I would love a donated infuse to continue work on my kernel and also start on CM7 but I am not a old or highly rep'd developer...
I'd work on it and I am still working on the kernel without one, so keep me in mind if your considering sending the second one to a developer..

Razor is a good upcoming Dec you should think about this.

Why do you think the sgs4g needs to get ics? My phone is fast got extremely great battery life and tons of other things. Do you just want ics so you could have the latest android flavor or do you think or know it will make our phones that much better. I'm not trying to be a smartass just curious why ppl are this rilled up about ics.

I think the only reason is because "others have it".
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Great words blazen you know maybe ics has some quiet interesting features but our developers make than our phone from crappy to gingerbread better than ics that is one the reasons I want to start developing because I feel that I got skills to make some good stuff for the phone ( like themes and guides only things that i have finished) and other reason is because here our developers are way better than samsungs horrible costumer service....anyway every sgs4g user most appreciete the developers work even if the projects are not finished like ics port and aosp port because that makes people more happy and they know that there works are awesome

I believe that most want it because it is the newest OS and most believe it will be an improvement, much like GB compared to Froyo... Which is understandable considering the developers here are going full bore in a attempt to port ICS.
Being one of those that was satisfied with froyo, I have to admit I am even more satisfied with GB... But as for your question, I personally hope that it is released for our phone because if it is, so to would the source be released (just imagine what the developers could accomplish with it).
Just my 2 cents in the well.

You do realize that's a post from someone in the forums right? No word from Samsung USA. You cannot depend on what a customer service rep says, they sit behind the computer all day and still do not know a thing about the products they are supposed to be supporting. They are just trying to shut us up about it already. If the OG galaxy s gets just a value pack, it'd be hard to imagine them bending backwards to give us full ICS

Ill get my diapers ready

If I am not mistaken the T-Mobile version is the same as the Telus S2 in Canada. If it is I would not be in any hurry to upgrade to ICS. My own experience and experience of others as reported on the Howardforums has not been stellar. Problems with apps freezing and battery life going in the toilet are common. Looks great, just doesn't work very well. I would hold off until these issues are addressed. I usually always wait to do an update until I here some feedback but this time I jumped in and am now regretting it.
Just a word to the wise

Bad news..but some good news...

So I was talking to flyers00 and I decided to let you guys know that this weekend I took out the Blaze to test some stuff on CM9 and since I wasn't used to carrying two phones I accidentally left it at Starbucks table when I went back to see if it was there maybe 10 minutes later the thing was gone and I asked the employees and of course no one saw a thing. So this is bad news for me because I feel bad for losing the phone...but after talking to flyers00 and him being an awesome team member/friend he said he would test all my builds from here on out so just wanted to let you guys know that i'll still keep deving for you guys just have to outsource the builds to him or others from team fah-q to make sure they work before releasing. Again, I feel bad but I will continue to contribute towards more builds and roms for this phone.
Try not to be so harsh with the comments as it wasn't my intention just completely blanked I had the blaze on me since i felt my pocket and felt my personal phone.
