Yup, I've flashed almost every room and I'm sticking to this now that it's stable. I really think you'll love it, let me know if you need help.

yeah you have to flash a froyo package that has the froyo bootloaders. try JPU or EZbase.

Correct, you have to flash froyo ROM, then flash a stock voodoo + froyo kernel. From here follow the instructions from the OP who posted the CM7 ROM.

Follow the instructions on the link I posted previously to make sure you get GB flashed correctly - correct bootloaders / no ext 4 issues etc...
Then check the Dev section for the latest roms - Valhala 1.1 is nice....
I don't use Wifi a whole lot so I can't really comment on that.

yes, wifi on GB is still meh. All roms are in the Development section

the reason i ask is because i see alot of roms out for GB,the rom im looking at is this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278389 and im looking at that New Miui rom but when its more stable.

Just read OP instructions for whatever ROM you are about to flash...very carefully until you completely understand the process. If you have any questions, read through the entire associated thread as they have probably already been asked and answered.
Just read, read, read. All of the information you need is available on these boards. I've bootlooped and soft bricked my phone several times, and each time it was because I hadn't followed the OP instructions to a "T".
If you have done everything above and still have a question it is likely that it is a good question, and there are a ton of really nice helpful people that will jump in and help you out.
EDIT: GB battery life is awesome.....

yeah and your helping me out is great looked around found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215748 seems too be easy too get on GB with no mess up

Just so the ops not alone, I flashed the deodexed and rooted kd1 then the bali 3.3uv kernal. When I try and flash adrenaline shot 7 i get stuck at the boot logo, any ideas here?

If any1 can help you get out of the loop, that would be great but if you can't you can try the following.
1. If you can get into CWM you can try to do a factory reset or reinstall the rom.
2. If you can not get into CWM you can try to use odin and flash a new rom.

the thread can be closed now thanks for all the help htaak

Did you try to manually push the files in through File explorer? Also, I think dsexton made the adrenaline shot on gingerbread roms, so it may not be 100% compatible on a froyo build. You might want to try some older versions of it if they are available.

[Q] Blue or Red CWR? confused

Hello, Im actually a inc2 user, and used to be a fascinate user. A friend of mine saw my phone and is tired of having his slow stock 2.1 ,mesmerize, so i opted to help.
As said, he was on 2.1. I odined to 2.2.1, now up to 2.3....Now I am trying to get a custom rom for him. In the sticky im finding both a cwr 4.0 and 2.5... One is blue and one is red.
My question... is if im trying to get a cm7 or miui for him... what recovery do I use.
I heard you need to be on 2.2 to go to cm7, and to use cwr 4.0 to flash.. however... when I do that... it goes instantly into a samsung bootloop and never flashes. When i try flashing with 2.5 cwr red version, it aborts.
basically my question is now that im on 2.3 what version cwr do I use, and how do i get to either cm7 or miui?
thanks!

If you're trying to goto CM7 or MIUI, then you'll need cmr 4.0 before hand. Red is the custom recovery only used for custom roms running gingerbread or bellow. I definitely suggest checking out ICS on rootzwiki though, it's the best mes/sc/fas rom I've used so far! ^.^

Everytime I Odin the cm4 Odin tar and flash into recovery its blue... And never works.
I use ics on dinc 2, what's not working? I also...how would I flash that?

Instructions is in the mes post(http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13774-rom-jts-ics-build-edited-for-mesmerize-showcase-build-6/), not working list is in the fasc post that the mez version is based on.(http://rootzwiki.com/topic/16630-romicsiml74k-teamhacksungs-ics-port-for-fascinate-build-61-0201/)
I'm not sure why your recovery flash isn't working. There's a tutorial here (http://rootzwiki.com/topic/10728-guideinstalling-a-romcwm-recoveryrootor-going-back-to-stock/).

You need to flash the file named "CWM4 FIXED FOR CM7" if you are flashing mtd rom to mez. "CWM-RECOVERY-ALL-3-30-FIX" for tw roms
You might find more help at rootzwiki, this forum died months ago during developer exodus... they all went there

That is not true, this phone was never one that got much attention, there are plenty of developers here with a vibrant user community....just not for this phone, unfortunately.

You're mistaken. This formally was the main forum for the mesmerize and showcase; however, disagreements between some of the developers and xda's admin caused many people to move to rootzwiki. We still are and have been a fairly active community.

[Q] any custom ICS rom for Rogers Infuse?

Hi
I've been searching the net for a custom ICS or JB rom for my Rogers Infuse but I couldn't find anything. All what I've found are roms installed using CWM not Odin and from what I've understood I can't install CWM. Is it possible to have your help guys to find this ROM?
Thanks.

Ics and jb roms also work with rogers infuse.
You should be able to install cwm on your phone, probably by flashing a custom kernel.
I'll see if I can find anything and also encourage you to search around about that.

Oh i'll be very gratful to you thanks!

Here are some instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20140197&postcount=3
That should give you cwm and allow you to flash ics or jb roms.

Thank you andros for your help
Now I have CWM, can I install any ICS or JB rom for Infuse or should I watch also if the kernel is the same?

Great!
Yes, you should be able to flash any rom now.
Be sure to follow the instructions. You can use my how to flash jb guide, linked in my sig.

the roms will include kernels, don't mix kernels. the aosp dev scene changes by the week (sometimes day) on the infuse as we try to catch up to the galaxy s' level(they had a lot of headway and a ton more highly experienced developers). so a kernel for a rom today might only partially work with a rom from two weeks ago..
only change the kernel if the rom developer has an alternative kernel such as oc/uv or something....
