[Q] Is there anyone running a "custom built" version of CM7 that they could share? - Samsung Infuse 4G

[Q] Is there anyone running a "custom built" version of CM7 that they could share?
Hi all...
I would like to try a CM7 ROM on my Infuse but I am in no way too technical to make my own from source so...
I am wondering if there is anyone here who has built a nice CM7 from source that could maybe share so I can give it a go???
I hope this is not too much to ask and I thank you in advance...

Thanks for the response but i don't see a d/l link to a specific ROM.
Perhaps I am blind but that is what I'm looking for... a working version that someone has created from source that I can flash via CWM...

Ya never looked into it till now, if I had a comp that could handle all of that and I had a better grasp on Linux, I would try building my own from the source.

If you look through the cm7 thread a few users have posted it. Just that others hate when they do so they discourage it on that thread because they don't want extra bug reports.

No its not that he does not want it posted on that thread, he does not want it posted at all until it is finished.
If you look at other rom threads there are tons of questions that should not have been there. What he is doing is like a semi private beta, it will help fix problems faster without having to answer simple questions. Things like who do I flash this, will it work with this kernel, and such.
Now I am not saying that its not on the web but you will have to find it and not ask for a link.

I dedicated a virtual machine to building CM7, so I can pull from the source rep and do a snapshot build pretty much anytime.
Problem is that we are not supposed to share it. LinuxBozo posted somewhere why this restriction, but I don't recall the link. Maybe someone could remind what the url to that post is.

People, if you want to share your own builds, I can't stop you. Hell, I don't even really care. I just ask if you do share, don't post them in the original thread, and make sure that whoever you are sharing with understands that this is currently not finished, has issues (especially with BT right now), and that unless they know what 'dmesg' and 'logcat' are, they will get absolutely no support from me and are on their own.

You guys have to understand from his point of view. Do u know how many questions or post saying things need to get fixed would pop up the whole reason around building your own from source is that if you can do that you should be able to put out questions and answer that help instead of simple or complex things that have being covered if you have the basic understanding and you can actually help with issues address them correctly ina Manet that helps fix it than its easier to get things sorted out before a release. So he doesn't want them in the original thread. I would suggest if you can find someone to share it since you have the approval now have them pm you not share it over the thread or any other thread and don't share it your self so it doesn't cause the other thread or any other to get cramped with questions that can or can't be answered. So if you get it keep it to yourself to help with that factor

ok, so given that it is better not to post links to home-brew builds on these forums, I figured to put mine here:
http://tools.1url.ws/cm7infuse.php
for who's craving to run CM7 on their infuse, and doesn't have the time/setup/etc. to build it on his own.
All the warnings, disclaimers, etc. stand of course. No support provided, no guarantee I'll build more in the future. As time allows every few days I plan to grab the latest sources and do a new build to post it there.
At this time I'm using the 10/12/2011 build, and aside from the known issues, works pretty well for me. But then again, you might end up having a totally different experience.

I am sorry man but I gotta call you out on this one. Not trying to be mean but truthful.
READ.
READ. READ. READ.
Read over the offical CM7 thread in infuse development. Read it twice. Read it three times. Use google. You'll know exactly where to find the gapps for CM7.
The problem with a build like this is who supports it? LB certainly won't. It's the reason he has a build only philosophy right now.

Wondering the same thing. I know they fixed it for some others phones that had this issue. Have not heard of a fix for our phone yet.
Mentioned in other threads, by people more knowledgeable than i, i'm just relaying the info. May not be entirely accurate, but in effect, our bt chipset is a ***** to deal with and is completely unique to our phone. Basically it could be done but it's all audio routing and no one wants to bother because they'll be able to pull it from the att gb dump when it cones. Bide your time, patience is a virtue
Derpin on my infuse
Yes, there is still an issue with BT. Yes, it's true that the Infuse has a completely different chip used for BT communication. Yes, it's a ***** to deal with, and yes, there are some issues with routing. However, nothing from ATT will help this get done. The stock Samsung roms use a completely different bluetooth stack that is proprietary. CM7 uses the open source bluez stack. Nothing can really be used from the stock rom to get this working.
if i build from the dev source is it cm7.1 final with Android 2.3.7?
Definitely looking forward to checking this out. I'm considering getting an Infuse. Coming from a Cappy I'd definitely miss not having CM7.

Stock/Leak and Custom ROMs forums

Who else wants to see a separate forum for completely stock (maybe also deodexed) roms and leaks, separate from all the custom roms? It might help out newer users who haven't noticed the naming schemes for leaks etc. It could also have a stickied thread guiding them to what's the latest available leak. The dev section is pretty cluttered :/
That definitely sounds like a great idea. Then again, there could also be a compiled list of leaks and deodexed ROMs, just like what Whitehawkx did.
Maybe I'll start working on that this weekend if people actually want it.

I'll let this poll run for another day then I'll contact a mod to see if they can do anything.
That's a good plan and will help all new comers to this forum.
I like it to - maybe if so - have the devs post if the rom is for Froyo or GB ?? Im a noob myself and I understand most - but still trying to figure out all the kernels and differences between KI3 or KG4... and what not.
Ditto.. Would definately help newcomers. It only took me a couple hours to figure things out but I'm sure it would help total noobs....
Vote yay

I know, but don't we need some updates. Nothing is wrong with keeping a thread for updates now that all are 100% possible.
Entirely my thinking when posting this thread .
to be fair, i already have a thread on this
The point of this thread is to be a place easily found by everyone in our forum for the devs to post new updates now that we have kernel source. Sorry but i couldnt find your thread here on our forum mate.
Stop hating... He clearly stated that he wasnt trying to tell how devs should handle their development.
Which you made a redundant comment.... ANd ultimately you jus trolled for no reason... So please shut up and leave the poor fellow alone!

I think an all in one thread for CM7 or MIUI updates shouldn't even exist, unless one of the devs working on the ports creates it. Then it can be stickied and we don't have to worry about searching through pages of flaming for the updates!
You realize since we have source now, it aint gonna be a port but a build just for us!

I say just keep your eyes on the Android Development section and keep your fingers crossed for the holy words to grace it .
So is this a thread to decide on whether to start a thread for miui or cm7 development?
Im all in favor of having a thread that the devs can give us periodic updates on their progress with the roms. As long as the thread has a rule that you can not ask in anyway for eta's.

Porting

I was wondering if there is any other threads that explain porting, I've read through the one in the bible and it seems outdated and looks like no one had any luck with it. Many comments state that op is missing something. And yes I Googled it and all results lead to the bible. I have pm erikmm asking for help since he is the porting god but got no response, not sure if he is getting my messages or if he simply does not care for me, anyway the rom I would like to get ported is based off of AOKP its like Aokp ++. Any help would be appreciated.
