Hello all,
I am new to the forums so I apologize if I posted in the wrong place! I am looking for a Froyo rom for the Samsung Mesmerize, I have spent quite a bit of time looking and have been quite unsuccessful so far. All I am looking for is a basic Froyo Rom, something that would be close to what Samsung themselves would actually release. I am new to Android so I do not know where to look exactly. I have hacked the PSP, jailbroken iPods, and installed custom roms for Windows Mobile phones so I am no total noob in the hacking aspect. If somebody could just point me in the way of some safe froyo roms that would be much appriciated, thanks in advance!

There are no roms Froyo based at the moment but the current rom that is avalible is Deodexed and clean (striped of extra bloat) It is an Eclair DI14 based Rom. There is also voodoo and nonvoodoo kernels avalible and I just posted some MODS I created Accurate battery and notification Icon changes, as well as it gives you Custom bootanimations if you choose the voodoo kernel,as this kernel supports custom bootanimations...All kernels can use this mod you just wont have bootanimation change if you choose nonvoodoo...Hope this helps

Welcome to a new and sick, twisted world
Ever wish you could take one of those nice shiny GalaxyS (i9000) ROMs and flash it to your lovely Infuse? Well now you CAN! Yes, I say GO AHEAD and flash away. With LinuxBozo's magic Hellraiser, you can raise a little hell with any JVQ based i9000 ROM on your Infuse.
How's it work?
Select any JVQ based ROM for the i9000. If you don't know what this is, then this is not for you.
Push your selected ROM to your /sdcard
Download Hellraiser below
Push Hellraiser to your /sdcard
Reboot into Recovery (RED RECOVERY PREFERRED)
Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Flash your chosen JVQ ROM
Flash Hellraiser immediately after
Reboot and enjoy your JVQ ROM goodness
PLEASE NOTE: I am not responsible if something goes wrong. Seriously. If you don't flash Hellraiser correctly, you can be left with a phone that needs to be returned to stock with Odin or Heimdall. If you don't know how to do this, this is not for you.
FAQ:
Do I need to disable Voodoo Lagfix?
Nope.
Can I flash JVO/JVP/JVR/JVS ROMs as well?
You should be able to possibly, but I only tested with JVQ. So you are on your own there.
Can I flash i9000 Kernels with this?
NO
Can I flash other Infuse Kernels, like Infusion to get OC/UV?
YES. Neat, huh?
Can I flash i9000 CM7 or MIUI with this?
NO. This will only work with Samsung based ROMs
Can I flash Samsung based Captivate/Vibrant ROMs as well?
This has been reported to work by at least one user. Make sure it's Samsung Gingerbread based.
Which ROM do you recommend?
Which one you choose really is a matter of preference. However, I tested with:
Sensation from Crysis21: [ http://is.gd/D5LJm6 ]
Blockbuster [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069456 ] (REQUIRES you remove line from updater which auto-reboots)
How does this work behind the scenes? How is this even possible?
What Hellraiser does is flash in appropriate hardware libraries and userspace applications, and the Infuse specific modem (UCKE3) and kernel. This allows the existing i9000 ROM to work on the Infuse all while still thinking it's an i9000, but addressing the Infuse hardware.
Known Issues:
First phone call after a boot will not have sound. Any calls after that are fine. Toggling speakerphone mode seems to fix this immediately.
Using the Market may make data drop if you are not on Wifi. Simply toggling Airplane Mode, and back again will bring data back.
Any other questions? For answers go to: [ Q&A ]
Like what I've done here? Consider a small donation to my beer fund. ;-)
Ok, now that you've thought about it, go ahead and [ DOWNLOAD 1.0 ]
Having trouble with 1.0? Here's [ Beta6 ]
CHANGELOG
1.0
Kernel - Compatible with latest AT&T Leaks
Kernel - Completely fixes downloading large apps from Market. No more hacked Market!
Beta9
Reverted RILs from UCKI4 leak.
Kernel - tweaks that should remove errors in logcat about usbstorage
Kernel - tcp buffer sizes from UCKI leaks that seem to increase network speeds
Revert to UCKI3 modem (UCKI4 seems piss poor all around for everyone)
Should fix issues with black screen that some users have had with beta 7 and 8.
Beta8
Updated to UCKI4 leak.
Write proper build fingerprint to build.prop
Beta7
Updated to UCKI3 leak.
Beta6
This version will probably require full wipe data/reset from CWM before flash of Hellraiser
Should fix APN settings for those who had blank APN, or had wrong APN set by their chosen ROM.
Sets proper 4G ro.ril.* settings for you automatically in the build.prop. No more copy/paste into the build.prop
Sets proper model name in the build.prop so you are actually running as an Infuse, not i9000. Check "Settings, About Phone" to verify.
Includes proper bootanimation binary that will allow you to use /system/media/bootanimation.zip instead of /system/media/sanim.zip
Beta5
NEW KERNEL
Fixes Wifi Mobile AP issues
Includes tweaks to Conservative governor
Includes Interactive governor
Includes Smartass governor
Includes CIFS module
Memory tweaks for systems running low on memory
Enables custom boot animations. You'll LOVE the new one I include by default.

Install Infuse Camera APK to get 8M shooting
Beta3 (private beta)
Fix issues with Wifi bringup
Flash ATT UCKE3 modem
Beta2 (private beta)

Oh my god. This is going to be sweet. Not suggesting any work to add to your pile, but if you continue to expand to other bases besides jvq, this means that we're going to have so many different options for our kick ass phones. Thank you for the great work LB! I'll test this out tomorrow, as I have no worries about using odin if I somehow mess something up, but it seems pretty straightforward. Wooooo!

yes darkys 10.2 is 2.3.4. flash either cwm-community voodoo kernel if on froyo or the infused gb kernel for gingerbread. This is to get the preferred RED CWM. Then just flash darky and then unleash the gates of hell with hellraiser.
BTW Darkys Rom does run very well. Everything seems to work perfect and it is blazing fast.

Says who?
Lots of people seem to be recommending MIUI... but what else is good that's out there, besides CM?
Miui is great but..
Miui (whitehawx) is pretty good. But there is so much things to mess around with. I currently have G2xTreme GB 2.3.3 v.5. It is simple with all the bloater gone.

Can post the link to that rom? Thanks.
Sent from my Calculator with Android.
Try this rom for amazing stability, while retaining the graphical aspect of 2.3.3 (Gingerbread). It's a mix of CM7 and AOSP made by Faux123. If you're looking for straight up stock check out this for a slimmed down, and speedier version of the OTA.

Hey, so i had issues with colors after installing BFS Matr1x, which got me looking into the whole 2.3.3 color deal. people say its more vibrant, and since i dont recall having any sort of issue with the colors but actually loving them back in 2.3.3, i was wondering if someone would be able to make a flashable zip that works with any rom and kernel and fixes the colors to make them pre 2.3.3? i saw a thread about matr1x kernels with pre 2.3.3, problem is that one isnt updated + its a whole kernel. i wanna be able to fix the colors on whatever kernel i happen to be using, rather than wait for someone to fix the colors of each update or each kernel seperately...in my mind it seems like it would be an easy development, but im no dev, so what do u guys think?
Hope someone can help me out!
Thanks

Good idea. Like in an app or something?
Like a flashaable zip like we had with tethering fix and such apps work too tho, of we can achieve same quality

The colors are modified at the source level. Wont happen. Matr1x pre 2.3.3 was updated

Hi,
Please don't burn me about a new post I've done a lot of phone research to get to the Infuse. The options for an "android development newb" are many. And not sure what a kernel and Rom is...Rom is the operating system right?
Basically looking for a stable/best operating system with priority in audio quality for headphones.
Ive read abit about the Voodoo for the wolfson chip in the Infuse. Read about a leaked version of Android 2.3.5 available but it may have some 'rainbow' effect?..
Basically trying to find the best rom, kernel and whatever, their are so many.
Thanks.
EDIT: Looking to use 'Voodoo control plus' app and 'Voodoo Screen Tuning' app so need compatible rom & kernel.
It really is going to be personal preference all the roms I have tried are pretty damn stable I have seen people really liking caty rom though prob try that first
Other popular one I used to see in google searches was MIUI, infused might be good, is it closer to stock ROM? Stock roms are probably safer ie not losing BT?
Interested in this [KERNEL]Community Kernel v8 - (7/17/11) - Voodoo sound v10
Catyrom and numas are infuse stock based roms like infused....everything works

"ROM" in the download title indicates it's stock (from Samsung or AT&T) & the one that says ie "Stock UCKJ4 [Rooted, Deodexed, Busybox] [2.3.6]" is the stock rom with things done to it like rooted??
Is video fine on KL2?

Video only works with that rom if you have the correct kernel I do believe.
I would suggest going here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092021 and downloading the one with 3e recovery. That enables access to modifications such as voodoo control, while maintaining a stable stock environment. The simplest voodoo kernel you can use is the voodoo community kernel, which can be found in the infuse super thread under the android development section of this forum.
Hope this helps!
I am also new to the Infuse. I had the AT&T Captivate that I was able to flash to Rogers 2.2 and it was great. Rogers allows more control of the phone and was very stable. I then got greedy and tried to flash a Rogers GB rom and bricked my phone. I read that the Infused rom is based on Rogers but it seems to have some bugs.

No bugs in Infused. The Rogers firmware doesn't have HDMI support, because the Rogers phone doesn't have HDMI out. Other than that, Infused is the best stock ROM for this phone. Once AT&T releases GB, we'll probably get another update, but there's no bugs. If you flashed an Infuse ROM on a Captivate, well... there's your problem. I can't tell from your post if that's what happened or not.

I disagree that the infused is the best ROM. Its a good ROM, but IMO CatyRom or Numas, are better. I ran infused for a long time as well as a lot of Ports. The Ports are fun, lots of customization and bells and whistles, but the 2 I mention as well as the infused are the best for what you're looking for I think.
Infused is outdated though.
I prefer these because they are native to infuse.
I suggest
1) CatyRom
2) Numas
3) Infused v2.3.3
The ICS version of Caty has a MIUI music player that is awesome. Also there is a free app called audio FX that I use for an eq and its great.

Might try Catyrom, but probably will one of the latest leaks "ROM I997UCKL2 [2.3.6]" or "UCKL2[Rooted, Deodexed, Busybox, and CRT off]" I'm led to believe theyr both stock.
If I go with first UCKL2 I will need to root it to run the voodoo apps. If I root it will I lose video and HDMI? If so how do you fix it? Would I be better to go with the latter UCKL2 (already rooted)?
Note I may be upgrading from froyo (I havent got the phone yet).
Also not sure on the flashing procedure, I found this; any good or bit outdated? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318160
