Cool! I've been reading and lurking trying to learn how to root and all that so I can maybe try my hand at flashing a new rom but haven't had the courage to really dive in. I guess I'm a bit hesitant ..hopefully soon I will try. Any tips?

Its special to people who hate touch wiz and want a stock android os...plus the infuse.is stuck on froyo and who knows the the update will be pushed...this rom lets you flash gingerbread and also its a stock interface not touch wiz...but if your happy with just a stock rooted infuse thats fine dude lol...are you going to overclock your phone?

I doubt it will work for 2.3.6 but if someone wants to try and verify that would be great. So if by chance it does it can be posted for everyone to see

Won't be me... right now I'm happy to have root, and READING lots before I get too adventurous. I've got 2.3.5.
There's SO much stuff out there on different ways of doing things, BUT my money is on XDA!

Check the dev section there are a number of them there all ready or read up on hellraiser and port your own.

sorry im a noob, im guessing its very hard
No...but I've already ported 5 i9000 Rome and captivate Roms...and bigfau has about the same if not more...look in the superthread...you will see them...and yes...porting is no picnic
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
You can choose any of them besides cm7 or miui and flash hellraiser directly after if I'm not mistaken
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
nothing hard about porting if you have the information but I'm sure it was no picnic for Linux bozo the first time. also if you want to run other roms not already ported then use the hellraiser mod and follow the flash instructions to the letter.
also why just i9000/ captivate roms. the vibrant has many good roms and I'm sure the sgs4g roms can also work considering we have even more in common with that phone than the regular galaxy s.
Actually it IS hard if you have never done it...that was my point.....it took me forever to get.my first port to boot...but when it does its like riding a bike after that....but anyway...just take your time and study....in non technical terms...open hellraiser and you'll see everything you need....SMDH!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
I didn't mean it as a rebuttal to your post. its all relative. hard/not hard its all a matter of opinion and yeah I've banged my head over stuff that should be stupid easy. and porting the rom is not stupid easy so yeah it can be a headache.
for me app modding is hard, driver writing issues impossible, for my brother its all easy as long as he has documentation. he could easily run with the best xda devs if he had the interest, but he doesn't care much for phones.
for me interpreting blueprints and machining and programming cnc machines and welding aren't hard but to someone else what I do can look intimidating yet I can train anyone with some sense how to do any of those things in a short time.
but back to the op, if you are interested in releasing a rom port break everything down, see what goes into a cwm update package, then break down hellraiser but realize some of the tricks in that update script aren't needed for a onetime flash, there is a shell script that mods the build.prop, you can more easily pre mod the build.prop according to what that script would do and build it into the rom. but if you are just interested in the a certain rom for yourself then you can flash any gb rom for a GSM galaxy s and flash hellraiser back to back. do not reboot before you flash hellraiser that would be bad!

I'd say use the Faux kernel with Sky Ice Cream
It gives me the best battery life... about 2 days with moderate use.
And NEVER use ROM Manager. It's BAD. VERY BAD!
So when are we getting a real Ice Cream Sandwich rom? Real 4.0.3? I really want this and I want it bad! Im craving it. So please answer this because last time I posted a question noone helped me. If this has already been posted I apoligize!

This is asked a lot. I'm sure others will elaborate, but at this time there is no ICS, I'm not aware of anyone with it working, but things change.

Thank you very much even though it was a disapointment you still helped. May I ask though, what rom and kernal are you running and how great and smooth is it? Im running something I flashed to get 2.3.something I dont remember and a kj1 kernal. Its not very smooth and I have to restart my phone atleast 4 times a day.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I tend to bounce between VB Final and MIUI using the included kernal.
Just about everything I flash is good stuff. I'm downloading unnamed now. Try the one click gremlin remover posted in the dev section. Right now I'm using VB final and it's as smooth as I need it to be.
That said, none of this relates to ICS. Lol
