Gingerbread?

I found a link with instructions on how to install Gingerbread on the infuse. I am totally new to Android and just made this account so it won't let me post the link. Anybody want me to pm it to them?
Im just curious if it is real or not... I know hardly anything about android.. i came from an iphone and very glad i did so!

sure pm me

Can you please PM me as well?
I have ROM Manager installed but not sure which model name to select as I don't see Infuse when I try to install clockworkmod recovery
Anyone know which option to select when it asks for model name?
TIA.

any of the galaxy s line should work. i used the one for the capitvate.
where did you find the link? and are you sure it is real?

I saw tons of posts in other threads about how this phone does not have same kernel as Captivate and they bricked their phones. Can you give us more details on how you did it and what option you picked exactly?
Did you install CWM using Captivate as model name only or you changed the stock rom?

Its a rootkit/spam URL.
There is a site that spins these all up about how to get Gingerbread on your device. It replaces a couple things like su and such and will make your phone not your friend.

Im with above post. If it happen it would be on xda... call this bs..
sent from Infuse but miss my captivate on cont. 5.5.... One day this can be as good...

the reason there was a brick is because someone flashed a captivate kernel with CWM built in. if you use rom manager, its the same as if you do the steps in my post regarding CWM.

I sent you a PM. I am picking up a backup phone tonight to hack into this Infuse, I can't stand stock phones and cars

There'll be no Gingerbread until Samsung makes it, or some genius makes a kernel from, say, i9000 sources like xcaliburinhand did for the Captivate.

Can xcal do that? I think he just reoriented the i9000, I don't think he coded it for another phone....

He took the i9000 kernel source and modified it for use on the Captivate.
Could he do it for the Infuse? Probably. I don't know much about kernels beyond how they fit into ROM creation.

Miui?
Any chance of seeing the MIUI ROM for the Infuse 4G any time soon?

If you're running fully stock, please come by the IRC channel.
In fact, any full-stock Rogers users, please come by. I want to get an Odin TAR out for you all.

Man.. once I see this out I'll finally consider rooting my phone. Unless there is another way of getting the sliding glass unlock screen .. LOL.

Are you a stock I727R user? If so, you can speed up this process by dropping by IRC and working with me to get the dumps I need.

I have a SGS II-727 Rogers. Full stock and would like to help, I just need full instructions. Actually its my second one cause the first one was stuck on the screen with the yellow triangle so I managed to exchange it from rogers for a new one.

Okay, folks - an I727R TAR has been uploaded! Enjoy!

I think the stock rom could be downloaded from KIES
You can find the ZIP from temp files when re-install or update a new rom

Where can I find the stock tar? I'm new to this. I soft bricked my phone.. Galaxy S II LTE i727r from Rogers... I tried to root it odin froze.. now the phone is displaying this message " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again" Any help on how I can flash back to stock rom?

[Q] Regarding i727R and i727 users ICS Update - Please Read ASAP

i got an idea for us canadians. how about someone make a backup of boot.img through cwm and go into external sd card where it saves it and post that recovery cause i think we might be able to flash it this way .. again just a thought if it doesn't work you can close this thread please & thanks.

Man I really hope that works

same here because i know if u flash via cwm atleast it'll bypass and install recovery otherwise it might not work worse case we can go back to 2.3 for time being..

The only thing was that I kind of wanted like a really clean (odin clean) install of ics . Nothing left over but Im not going to complain if it comes out cwm

I see no reason why restoring an ics backup wouldnt work. Please someone give her a go!! Although I agree a fresh odin install would be nice

Someone should do a fresh install of ICS through ODIN and then make a nandroid before doing anything with the ROM so it's pretty much clean

[Q] Bricked my phone

Hello,
First of all I'm a n00b at this, so bear with me.
I have a SAMSUNG GALAXY S phone that came with FROYO 2.2.1. I tried upgrading to CM9 following the instructions in cyanogenmod full update guide wiki.
I encountered a few problems though:
1. That guide is for Android 2.3+, so I had to go to the Samsung website and upgrade the firmware to GINGERBREAD.
2. Apparently, my phone doesn't go into download mode by using the side buttons. So I had to do it using ABM.EXE.
Finally, I was able to install CWM Recovery 2.5 using heimdall. I wiped out data/factory reset, cache partition and Dalvik cache. I go to the download folder to install CM9 nighlty zip and I get a STATUS 7 error.
Now my phone doesn't even load. WHAT DO I DO?!!!!!!

Fancy paperweight

Do you have a Samsung t959v or t959? If its t959 ur in the wrong forum and if u have a t959v then you flashed a rom meant for another phone.
If you have a t959v and can get to rec or download mode then try flashing kj6 one click but seems like you don't have this phone.

Thanks for replying ericmm.
Somehow I managed to get the phone running on Gingerbread. The Model number is SGH-T959V. Where do I find the ROM for this phone? Would CM9 work on this phone?

[Q] I need help running T-Mobile GS2 roms on my Skyrocket.

OK so I came across a thread that said you would be able to run T-Mobile gs2 roms on skyrockets and I wanted to test it because I love the roms on the T-Mobile gs2. I grabbed the conversation file that the thread provided and I got the T-Mobile gs2 I wanted and began the process. I backed up my current rom and then wiped every thing. I flashed the rom and then the conversion file like it said. I rebooted the phone and it just sat at the Samsung boot screen. I thought it was normal so I left it there for a while and came back and it was still stuck there. Can the skyrocket really run T-Mobile gs2 roms? Did I do anything wrong in my process? I was able to restore to my previous rom so I'm not freaking out, but I really want to run the rom I found. Is there anyone that can help me? Please and thanks in advance.

Yeah they work fine.You did something wrong.

Simple answer, you are flashing a TW based conversion kit to an AOKp based rom. Just use an AOSP, CM10 and alike kernel to that rom and you should be good.
