Having trouble installing roms - Samsung Infuse 4G

CWM doesn't offer me to option to install from sd card or install rom. What am I doing wrong?
Sent from my A500 using xda premium

What color is your CWM screen? Have you installed 3e, hit "reinstall packages" twice to get into green CWM?

It's blue I think.

cwm rom manager

rom manager has an option to install rom from sd, anyone tried this? maybe we don't need to wait for cwm recovery?
It still involves rebooting into cwr though
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
it shows the external sd card though and a message pops up when i try to it says, "installing a rom with a recovery other than cwm may not work properly." so it does NOT involve cwm recovery
Tommorrow ill build a cwm for us no time today

I will be anxiously awaiting a CWM recovery as well as an Odin TAR. I think I've experimented my phone to death and need to just start fresh again.

Am I missing something?

I was trying to flash darkys rom woth hellraiser beta 5. I went into red CWM. I wiped data. I tried to install the rom but it said it was bad? And then I installed hellraiser. And then rebooted and got stuck on samsung logo. Any help?

"said it was bad" - pretty ambiguous - you need to give EXACT errors when reporting bugs, or at the very least, more descriptive than that.

and still you installed hellraiser?
If you are stuck then use unbrick pakage.
also mention which version of darky's rom you were trying to install.
I installed darkys 10.2 extreme addition rom.

BTW if hellraiser was successfully installed, he should be able to enter CWM without doing an "unbrick" back to stock using the three-finger trick.

If you have the blue recovery it sounds like your running ICS... If its distorted, sounds like you need to update your Bootloaders from froyo to Gingerbread bootloaders.. You can do a simple search and find a thread to do this with Odin or Heimdell..
As for your issue... You just need to flash the ICS kernel with Heimdell found here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629079 - Just put your phone into download mode, open the executable ICS jar file and make sure it says connected and then click flash.. let it do its thing and it should boot just fine.
After I flashed it in download mode the device boots into cwm fine but when I do a normal boot the screen goes black.should I just reflash a rom

Oh..I see. What you're talking about are the rainbows effects.
You have to flash a GB boot loader.
See the op of cm9 or flash my whole uclb3 firmware and then flash again with the boot loader box checked. see the op for details

CWM Recovery 5.8.1.3 Freezing??

So I flashe's CWM Recovery 5.8.1.3 on my Skyrocket Gingerbread Stock ROM and every single time I try to.boot into it, it just completely freezes and I cannot scroll to my SD-Card to install Superuser. Any ideas as to what is going on or what I can do?

Don't use the volume keys in that recovery. Strictly touch. If in were you I would just use 6.0.1.0

What I probably should have said is I don't believe our device I'd compatible but if you got it to work on an Infuse, that is great. MG2195 had done one for the Infuse but stopped when we went to JB.
