Since the Mesmerize is just starting to bloom this page will be helpful in the future. I figured we can list the ROMS that work on our phones in one spot. My plan is to keep it updated with all the Roms and kernels for the Mesmerize. Make sure you check the thread for more details. So shall we get started. (if i miss any let me know and Ill get it added)
ROMS:
DI14 Pick-n-Pack 0.2 ROM
Downloads: Here Mirror Here
This is a stock, deodexed ROM with minor changes. No dependencies have been removed, therefore all stock apps should work as expected. Although this is very similar to the stock setup, it is still not stock and by flashing any or all parts of this ROM you understand the dangers of such flashing. Do a backup before you flash anything.

Super Clean ROM 0.3 for MESMERIZE!
Download: here
Hi guys. I got my hands on some DI14 files from the Mesmerize and decided to cook up a ROM. This ROM is very lightweight (removed as much touchwiz stuff as I could), and is very similar the version I have released for the Fascinate.

This is a port that I really like in all respects its Cynaogen 6.0 that I ported to the MESMERIZE it has a BLUE and BLACK splash/moon Theme. This is just the first of many to come from me

DI14 Blues ROM
Download: Here
This is in beta as I have not yet gotten everything in it that I want, but it's a good start and usable. As usual take a nandroid backup before you flash anything. I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone while flashing any of this content. That being said, I have had no problems with any of it. It uses all of the dependencies so all of the stock apps should work and anything that has been removed can be added from the Pick-n-Pack ROM.

I have finally, successfully, gotten jt1134's device tree and Froyo framework all configured for the Mesmerize. This is a Vanilla Froyo (no Cyanogenmod) build and works enough to play around with (= But, I should warn you, this isn't a terribly stable build, so don't freak out if something acts weird d= Also, I'm not responsible for any harm you may do to your devices.

I present to you an 'official' build including the kernel, radio, and full-blown froyo tastiness, for the USCC Samsung Mesmerize. Pre-rooted for your convenience, just download and flash with the latest version of ODIN. These are stock images plus root so your phone will function as if you just turned it on for the first time, albeit with a finger that magically instills root powers into any device you touch.

KERNELS
VooDoo 5
Download: here
Kernels include various tweaks for performance and speed, and have also been slightly undervolted to be nice to your battery. They are NOT overclocked, as IMO, there is no benefit to overclocking other than inflated benchmarks and worse battery life.

VooDoo 5 2.2
download: Here
Be careful!! This kernel is named the same as jt's Voodoo Sound 2.1 Kernel that he released yesterday. You may want to rename one of the two if you plan on using both. The ROM will bootloop or freeze at the lockscreen if you mistakenly use a 2.1 kernel (=

CAUTION - WARNING
Do not use the partition sd card option in rom manager. It will mess up the phone's master boot record and you will have to rewrite the original one in order for voodoo kernels or anything that modifies the boot record to work properly.
dcow90 said:
I know it may be tempting to flash Fascinate or Showcase (or Vibrant, or i9000, etc) ROMs and Kernels especially since the Fascinate is starting to get some Froyo alpha builds. It is also probably a bit confusing as to why (since we PRETTY MUCH have the same hardware) it wouldn't work. [Unless you can confidently recover from a soft brick without breaking a sweat on your palms and are willing to risk the small chance of a hard brick] Don't.

None of the Fascinate ROMs will work on the Mesmerize unless you follow the Fascinated-Mesmerize thread. I don't recommend it, but it seems to work.

I had a response about product replacement until you said pregnant. Then I understand your pain and wouldn't want to piss her off either. I also see women in stead of woman, I'm hoping that's just a typo. If not you can come stay with me. lol

just an update to main post
I sent a PM to Scotsman to see if he will make this a stickie, I referenced it in my newbie guide as it's a great write up, good work!
THESE ROMS ARE FASCINATE ROMS. DO NOT USE THEM UNLESS YOU ARE RUNNING THE FOLLOWING:
EC01 (ED01) Fascinate Radio
Fascinate Kernel
IF YOU ARE NOT USING ALL OF THE ABOVE DO NOT FLASH THESE ROMS
See dfgas' post here for getting ec01 set up intially
Now that you've been properly warned, here's my intro:
I am not the creator of these roms. I merely edited the necessary files to make them work for mesmerize users running ec01 setup. These rom's have been bug tested and are being developed by the fascinate guys, they will get issues resolved as they are able. Since we are using their firmware, we may have bugs or issues that they may not be experiencing and those should be kept to this forum.
Any and all risk and liability is on you. If your phone breaks, call the wahmbulance. I've tested all these roms on my phone so they worked when I upped them.
These roms are for USCC users only, on mesmerize phones running TW kernels.
See original fascinate threads for installation methods.
***DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE ROMS FROM THE ORIGINAL THREAD LINKS. THEY ARE NOT EDITED FOR THIS SETUP. THESE LINKS ARE PROVIDED FOR INSTRUCTION ONLY.
DOWNLOAD FILES MARKED "DOWNLOAD FIXED ROM HERE" ONLY****
***DISABLE LAGFIX BEFORE DOING ANYTHING AND DON'T RESTART IT UNTIL YOU ARE FINISHED***

Thanks to dfgas for pointing me in the right direction, and all the devs who made these great roms.
Thanks great job
Any fascinate roms will work as long as we make the edits noted in the post by dfgas correct? I ask because I noticed one of the roms in this post was updated today.
*evil fascination was updated since this post.

This is true as long as you keep your rom release/kernel in mind. Make sure any roms you use matche your kernel. I simply got these up here for folks that didn't feel comfortable editing the build.prop or moving apps on their own.
Okay. Thought I would check. Thanks for putting these up here.
I did one and it seems I didn't mess anything up. beginners luck I think.

Great. We encourage people to dig in and try stuff. You should upload anything you do for the rest of the community as well.
so I got the EC01 installed....checked my regular USCell setup and everything worked still....So i went ahead and installed the OTB-Reloaded TouchWiz ver 1.1 Kernal.....everything's good......but when I tried to install the fixed Rom (evil) for Mesmerize....it just didn't work.....it said install aborted (bad)
any pointers? I'm downloading Blackhole 4.4 and am going to give that a go...
and yes, lagfix was disabled!
I tried the Evil one as well, and I got constant bootloops... I redid everything from scratch (Stock) and tried again, it got into the ROM but many FC's... Then I wipe Cache and Dalvik, and it went back to Bootloops... Tried at least 4 times..
However Blackhole works just fine using the same procedure ...
Shame because the last ROM on that list seems like the best... Oh well will try out Blackhole..
EDIT::: In fact after all that messing to get the Radio files on etc, it made no difference whatsoever on my 3G Speeds... The ping went down, but everything else is the same speed wise...still averaging out at 1mb a sec tops...
Well back to Stock EC10 and Mesmerize SuperClean ROM for me for now.... Was fun trying tho

I have the same issues with otb-reloaded kernal. The original OTB worked great. My suggestion is to use jt's 4/15 release to get things going. Once you get to ec01 installed and working, then try going to a different kernel.
leave jt's kernel in place until you get your rom of choice loaded.
If all else fails, goto #samsung-mesmerize irc chat and ask those guys.

hey, yours may work better than mine, you never know. don't feel like you're limited by what other people have done. At least thats my perspective.
the Evil Fascination rom has been updated. If I have time today I will try to edit it for the mez. That is unless someone does it first.
How would I go about getting it on here once it's ready for others to use?

Got changes made. Will test and if all goes well will put it here for others.
It is Evil Fascination ver 3.1

Well, you can get yourself some webspace, like, mediafire or megaupload, upload to one of those sites, then make a thread.
You can send it to me and I can host it on my peronal server.
Or you can come up with option three on your own, lol.
I'm on the mesmerize MIUI rom right now... I'd LOVE to switch to the EC01 radio if there was a MIUI rom for it... is there MIUI for the fascinate? If so maybe ill try tackling the necessary edits to use it on ec01 mesmerize.

I tried using the 4/15 release kernel with the EC01 Radio.
This is what I did:
1) Reflashed the Stock EC10 onto the mesmerize (fresh no data on it.. like out of the box)
2) Flashed Clockwork Mod and EC01 Radio to phone.. Checked it booted. Booted ok
3) Installed the JT Kernel (disabled Lagfix so it would not do any of that)
4) using CWM installed the Evil Fixed ROM from the OP
Booted, and it comes up with the boot logo.. Then does the Vibrate followed by three more Vibrates.. and reboots. keeps doing this till battery is pulled..
Then I tried wiping Cache and Dalvik, get the same thing...
Thats when I gave up.. after trying it three times....
I've heard others have issues with the evil rom. I have fixed the 3.1 update and will upload it shortly. You could try that one and see if the issue is fixed.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Fixed version of Evil Fascination 3.1 is up.
SO, I am running the EC01 radio with the fascinate MIUI ROM. all is working (to the extent of the MIUI abilities), and so far I'm happy as a clam. Ill upload the zip to megaupload as soon as I can.
Sent from my Fascinated MIUI using XDA App
EDIT: Zip file uploaded. CRAP. At first the changes I made to build.prop didnt stick, and it actually worked just fine. After making the changes and making them stick, now every time the phone boots it's sluggish and the "system" force closes. It only does it once, when you first boot. Any thoughts, anyone? It may be worth mentioning, near the bottom of the build.prop file, there was this line: "net.cdma.pppd.user=user VerizonWireless" i did not change it to anything different, like uscc or whatever... it wasnt mentioned in the needed changes.
This is an all in one mod similar to the one RandomKing did for EG22. This includes a framework.jar, services.jar and settings.apk. The features included are 8 locks, wifi tether, sound, overscroll, reboot and rotation lag fix mods.
Special Thanks to Thanks to Maddoggin for taking the time to update the 8 locks Mod which includes reboot and overscroll. Thanks to mkasick and randomking for the volume Mod. Thanks to Chris41G for the rotation lag fix Mod. And last but certainly not least, Thanks to Necrosan for the wifi tether Mod.
YOU MUST HAVE MADDOGGINS MOD INSTALLED BEFORE USING THIS!

After some testing it looks like the new framework has cleared the issue I had with renaming it to Wireless Hotspot. So I am going to put up both versions to let you choose which one you want to use.
Flash this zip with clockwork. Make sure you have maddoggins mod installed first.
Don't forget that if your battery is missing after flashing to go to Settings|Lockscreen Settings|Statusbar Settings and check Hide Battery Icon then uncheck it.

Was his mod was released earlier than the new DeOdex versions that were done with baksmali 1.27? The modifications he made to the system files were they DeOdexed with the newer 1.27 version? I just don't want to carry in proposed problems as people said 1.26 did not handle Samsung 2.3 roms properly.

I am assuming that it was built on the old 1.26 since the browser is busted and it won't decompile unless I use 1.26. I have sent maddoggin a PM to ask if he will update this based off my version for us.

All I can say is this. I used 1.26 on EG22, because the new one wasn't out, and the whole time I used EG22 the only problem I had was with the Browser. Maybe I didn't have problems or maybe I didn't notice any issues or maybe I didn't use it enough to get any issues. With that being said, I still want to work off of the latest version which I know at the very least fixes the browser. If the framework is messed up enough to hose the browser than who knows what else is going on.
