[Q] ICS for SGS4G? - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

This question may belong in the stupid questions thread but here we go...
Can I use this I9000 update: ICS_4.0.3_MR1-RC4.1_I9000.zip to upgrade my friends SGS4G to ICS? I have a link with detailed instructions to upgrade the SGS to ICS with this zip and a few other steps, but it wont let me post it. Thank you for reading this.

No

Sgs does NOT = sgs4g

Where is sixstring here is another post about ics if people would read they would already see tons of posts on this. Im not *****ing just wonder why i am the one to have to say anything. Atleast look in dev section for one if you dont see one there is not one. Its not like the devs have it hidden somewhere

How to install custom rom

I am a new android user. I am learning little by little about this phone. Does anyone know how to install custom rom on infuse? I got my phone rooted already.
Thanks in advance.
Ok. First of all you have to be rooted. PM me if you need help with that. Which ROM do you want to flash? There are two that are working well, Infused and refuse. Refuse needs to use odin though, and infused usually doesnt. Just hit me up and I'll send you detailed instructions via PM. We dont need more clutter in these boards.

since the this thread is already started i do have a few noob questions if someone is willing to answer
you should ask.
Look at the thread that I made in the dev section and post questions there. They will be answered
Sent from my 4.5' Infuse 4g: Currently running Infused v1.3.1 w/ voodoo lagfix. Thank you gtg465x!
k will look there first and guess go from there. I have been hesitant to ask cuz always afraid they have been asked or wrong place to ask. Ive looked thru so many pages that i probably saw the answers to some of my questions but read them as a blur. I come from an iphone and with so many android phones seems so confusing at times.

[Q] Bali On GB?

I was wondering if I missed something here, I saw some people's sig's saying they where running 2.3.3 on there SGS4G's and it said there kernal was bali 2.1 I saw a couple peoples saying that is there really a way yet to get bali on the new GB I thought you had to flash it thru cwm which gb doesnt have.
From my understanding it doesn't even support 2.3 yet.
Why start a thread about it instead of sending a pm to the few who has it in their sig? Would get a faster response no? Not only that, if people were to read all the pages in each thread they wouldn't miss a thing

I use sgs kernel flasher to flash the kernels. so i think they would have to use this on GB because there is no cmw yet. its in the market
Bali is froyo source. Not gb source. Plus, partitions are encrypted and will only work with the UNMODIFIED STOCK kernel.

Maybe we should do what was suggested in the vibrant forum months ago and have a new thread for each update. When you get into the 4th or 5th update and over 100 pages that 75 are thanks this flies it gets confusing and hard to find an answer.

[Q] Cyanogen Mod 7.1

So I read that CM7.1 has been released and among the newly supported devices was the samsung vibrant and galaxy s. Still nothing for SGS4G, but I was wondering how far off this could be given the expanded support to similar devices. Any of the current devs out there think this makes it more practical to get it to our device?
First dont post here, bla,bla bla second u scared the **** out of me when j saw cyaogen mod in sg4g development

Yes its in the wrong fourms but im going to answer your question anyways.
the reason you dont see cm7 for the sgs4g is lack of a asop kernel (sence we dont have access to gb sourcecode for the sgs4g kernel.. (and theres alot of diffrences between the sgs4g and your typical galaxy s series rom that makes porting it without the source cumbersome.....
krylon 360 has been working forever on cm7 for the sgs4g and has done well they need the kernel source from gb to finish the kernel and complete the work..
so once samsung cough goes final with the gb rom and gives us source for the kernel expect cm7 and other asop roms in there fully glory

I apologize for getting everyone too excited and posting in the wrong thread. I don't spend very much time on these forums and didn't realize there was a q&a section. Thanks for the explanations though, hopefully we'll see it develop eventually. To be honest, I think my time with SGS4G will be ending once the nexus prime or whatever they're calling it now arrives.

[Q] no 4.0 for Captivate

I read in article that ice cream sandwich will not be available for the Captivate.
Is there anyone working on something that will be very similar?
Teamhacksungs ics port. It is going to be cyanogen mod 9. There is a thread for it in this forum. Also, this thread should be in the Q&A section, not development.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
I read that too but then I also saw that they were "revisiting" this and it is possible the galaxy s and galaxy tab may get the upgrade. I however doubt the captivate will get an official release since we still dont have official GB, blame AT&T
Just read this though

Noob to SGS4G for T Mobile...

Okay people I just bought this phone and I'm coming from MyTouch 4G. I've been reading for the past 2 days about how to flash a SGS4G and honestly,..it's crazy! Little overwhelming to be Honest...to the point, I rooted my phone with Superoneclick, I have superuser, so I know it's rooted. Plus, I have Titanium Backup running on my phone. Everything is still FACTORY SET on the phone. It is running 2.2.1 Froyo. I did read about Froyo udate zip CWM and recovery and have downloaded them. My question is since I want to flash A Rom does it have to be Froyo only? If there is such a thing?? Or can it be Gingerbread 2.3.6? And is there anything else I need to download? I know I have to follow to the tee on the OP that the Dev. says to do. I just want to be sure exactly what I need to do..

The gb ext4 starter pack saved me alot of headache when I first got this phone. Hands down it is the best way to go. Just make sure you follow the directions exactly. Its guides like this and the people that make them that make XDA so great.
I'm new to it as well and like you are saying, it's overwhelming to root and flash on this phone. But I followed the GB starter pack the other day and included the Vahalla Final rom as my choice and everything worked great. Some things actually happened a hair different than described and I thought it screwed up but it worked.
But I think I just screwed up trying to do a restore

I'm on the same boat as the OP, I have a mytouch 4g and my cousin is about to upgrade soon, so she offered to sell me her galaxy s 4g for $75 so I'm gonna take up on it.
I've been spying on the forums here and have noticed that most of your guys' roms are gingerbread roms, (i didn't really bother to search, for I don't know for sure I'll keep this phone or sell both my mt4g and this new phone for a galaxy s ii), but anyways, I saw something about porting roms from the other galaxy phones, am I right?
I haven't seen any ics roms here yet, but I took a look at the vibrant forums and it appears they have an ics rom and i was wondering would porting the ics rom from the vibrant be possible if I wanted to try. Thanks

Most will tell you if you want a rom ported do it yourself. The devs are working on what they are working on. It isn't really our place as end-users to make request (my opinion of course) rather be grateful for all the awesome **** they have done and are working on. So no... it isn't easy.
And yes --> We have some fantastic ROMS.
