I'm coming from LG Revolution land and my girlfriend has the MT. She wants her phone to be like mine and be able to tether, get rid of the dumb VM boot animation (and the power off animation if possible), and have a different theme more like mine which is kindof like GB but at the same time completely different. Any help would be awesome.
Thanks in advance to anyone who helps me.
Also, I'm a major fan of the thanks button and I hit it everytime someone helps me out.
Let's see...
PunkROM has a couple extra themed apps and in some respects looks more like Gingerbread and sometimes a little different; it's also been out longer than mine.

I built Black Lightning off Gingerbread (and PunkROM!) as a base, and integrated the safest and most stable-looking mods. So it's minimal, but theoretically powerful too if it needs to be.

MIUI is the best

I've tried them all except for punk and its come down to bouncing back and forth between cm7 and miui. why would you settle for froyo when gingerbread is so stable now? For a minute miui was the best but now that the beta cm7 are fully functional and butter smooth I am finding myself less inclined to flash and that is amazing! Ruined my Samsung captivate while I was still learning, be very careful going back to froyo roms from gingerbread on that one. Darkys killed it! My Triumph however seems unbrickable and is overclocked and stable. The stock rom was a joke and I got rid of that clumsy bastard the third day. Thanx to all the devs for working hard and kikin ass!

In CM7 - You don't--at this time anyways--unless you don't mind certain things not working since the only kernel is old and outdated at this time or unless you build your own OC kernel for CM7.
There's a couple of OC kernels available for FROYO roms atm. Just check the Dev section.

CM7 or MIUI are good ROMs, now they have worked out most of the bugs for this phone besides HDMI and something with camera mirror.
I switched over from the Optimus V and I have a gtablet, im really pleased by CM7 on this phone. I haven't had any problems at all, and the battery life with the last two releases on CM7 is great.
I will try the MIUI ROM as well though, I just chose CM7 because I have had prior experience with it.
I've never had any problems with my phone on the stock-ish ROM, but then again even on my desktop Skype appears to be mirrored (although the other side is okay)... from what I've heard, this is the way desktop Skype works.

I believe the HDMI and Mirroring problem are the custom ROM bugs, but I didn't stay on stock ROM longer then one day to find out how it was.
I am used to rooting and custom ROM's now, for me it's interesting to try different things out customizing my phone.
Edit: sorry for the confusion if I implied that HDMI and Mirroring on the camera are stock ROM bugs.
I'm refusing to switch to the Gingerbread Cyanogen mod simply because it doesn't have hdmi output. Even though I can't use the HDMI output anyway. There's probably a pill to alleviate that.

I'm refusing until you can use wifi with bluetooth, and the niggling audio bugs I keep reading about go away.
I hear that the gingerbread development is winding down now, so we may just be stuck with current cm7 and miui for a while...without fixes.
If I could just figure out what is killing battery so much faster than my optimus V, I'd be happy....
b_randon15 has a newer cm7 kernel that he claims takes care of the wifi/bluetooth issue. I'd give it a try, but I cant get clockwork to work!

Here is a list of all the roms so far.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1293751
Don't forget about Hellraiser, which allows you to run I9000,Captivate and possibly Vibrant roms also(only been tested on I9000 and Captivate Roms).Try'em all til you find your flavor.
And I would not say they are better than Infused or worse. Everybody has a favorite.
Hell, the jk2 leak is running great for me. I mean almost a day and a half battery life, fast, don't need any hacks or work arounds. All the other options bigfau mentioned I've tried, I like speed and stability and this is just what's best for me.

if you do not have to have GB i highly recomend infused 1.6 froyo
been my daily driver since it was 1.4
very fast and stable
FBN
I use serendipity 7 with hell raiser as my daily and really like it. If you don't mind working a bit to customize. Battery is good, got 30 fps working, using jl2 modem, and used the charcoal theme from the website for a clean look.

Cryogenic mod 7 for me. It's very fast, stable, customizable and works with the wii mote/ps3 controller. Only downside is the normal bluetooth a2dp doesn't work yet. I was on rogers stock gb, but cm7 is better for sure

does it work well with music streaming apps?
I used vevo and youtube no problem, so Pandora and other music streaming must work just as well.
I guess I'm confused as to the point of the original question. Infused hasn't been updated in a month, so you're wanting an alternative? Is that right?
Given that AT&T hasn't released an official Gingerbread ROM (and we're lucky that Rogers did), and the official ROMs are generally the source of custom ROMs, it's really no shock that a) there aren't more custom ROMs for the Infuse and b) Infused hasn't been updated in a month. However, just because it hasn't been updated doesn't mean it's outdated. That's important to note. I mean, short of just slapping a new modem in it and putting a new version number on it, what else is there to do? (Random rhetorical question: If there was a modem added every time a leak came out, and the ROM had a new version number slapped on it, would that be enough to call it "updated" and keep you using it?)
Personally, I use CM7. I use it because I have been using it for ages on my Captivate. It's fast, bloat-free and includes what an OS should include - just the facts, ma'am. If I want anything else, I add it myself. Bluetooth obviously isn't 100% and there are other quirks that pop up from time to time, but it's something I'm willing to deal with and I think the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. YMMV, of course.
Try MIUI, you'll never look for another new ROM again

Holy moly you can do that? Ha well I recomend either dlev or cm7 the compiled version. This is because dlev is just plain cool and fast (good job big fau) and cm7 is just plain fast and awesome for the people with the need for speed. Dlev has a good blue theme, and cm7 is just endless with their themes. Dlev has everything working except hdmi of course, and cm7 does not have bluetooth and hdmi not working. I recomend either of these two roms though, as they are very stable for me, while I would actually get force closes on infused every once in a while. Oh by the way, cm7 has a newly compiled rom almost every day. Dlev is probably better for a newer flasher though. Ha miui may be good, its based off of cm7 but has an iphone like look to it.
use infused + uckj2 modem and gb kernel
If you need bluetooth for streaming audio or making phone calls (at least with a car stereo) then forget about CM7 or MiUi. Neither work for Bluetooth in this regard.
If you don't, and you like customization, then I'd start with those two ROM's first. MiUi and CM7 are totally different, but both top dogs at what they do.

i just traded my htc vivid for my bros samsung infuse. I loved the vivid but my bro wants it and infuse was mine in the first place. did some swapping around with my brothers. I just hate the stock rom and all the bloatwares. Can someone recomment a smooth stable rom for the infuse? also one that can tether.
Which Rom is a personal preferance.
I currently run F1 Innovation, Fast, Stable and smooth. Not sure about tethering.

Check out the super thread: Infuse Super Thread
The current miui does tethering very stable and fast. Also the battery drain seems to be fixed which is a huge plus.

Still i haven't installed it but I read that CyanogenMod 7 works flawlessly on the Infuse. I read you can use it to connect usb devices to your phone so i guess it can do pretty anything, tethering included.
The only thing that seems to work crappy is audio through bluetooth but i bet it's not a big problem : bluetooth is one of the most stupid and unsecure tecnologies ever invented.
You will find on this forum tons of informations about roms...just read it!
I have a preference for Infuse based ROM on my infuse.
they are listed in the dev section under superthread

Don't install a Samsung based rom, which is everything but CM7 or MIUI. Both CM7 and MIUI are AOSP based. MIUI is too much like iOS for my liking. I have been running CM7 on my infuse since I got it, and before that on my inspire, and before that on my captivate. CM7 is the only way to go.
For what it's worth, I'm running CM7, the newest nightly on 1/19. Very stable (some apps I had while running stock Froyo or Infused 2.2.3? would force close alot, not on CM7, but it's a very selective few apps I use for work), very smooth, very fast, overclockable to at least 1.4 gHz for most people. Some people do 1.6 gHz but it's not stable for my phone. You can undervolt it by some amounts for that extra battery savings, and it's constantly having features added to it, like T9 dialing that I discovered was included (much MUCH love for this small thing).
For all the added features, I regularly go through my phone and make sure I don't have apps that do things that are now part of the phone, so I keep the app list short and sweet. Having redundant features means that 2 things are trying to do the same thing, and I'd rather punch out my battery more and more without giving up some conveniences I had Dialer One on my phone, and it's not that great looking, but I had it just for the T9 dialing. Once I saw that CM7 had a T9 dialing feature, I uninstalled Dialer One. The music app, while not as heavy on the eye candy, made me get rid of Doubletwist and Airsync. Airsync never really worked great, for me at least.
CM7 doesn't have fully working bluetooth on the Infuse, some people have trouble with auto brightness (my personal preference is that I'd rather use the status bar slider to adjust brightness), and HDMI out doesn't work. It also has some extra niceties, such as theming, a DSP Manager app (that controls audio levels and equalizers), and is pretty much always being updated.
The drop down bar can be customized almost entirely, and because bluetooth doesn't work, not that I want it, I got rid of that icon. I replaced it with a screen timeout toggle. It has many more options than that.
One thing, and I don't think this is CM7 exclusive, is that sometimes my text messages won't send. I'm using GOSMS as my messaging app until the stock messaging app starts sending ALL of my texts. MMS relies on a data connection so I tend to pull the drop down and enable that when I want to send a picture or download one. Once it starts working the same way, I'm uninstalling GOSMS because it tends to be heavy and sometimes lags up noticeably.
I don't use bluetooth, and I don't think I've ever opened that HDMI dongle packaging, much less tried to use it. While it would be nice if they functioned, I get from day to day without even thinking about those. Your mileage may vary.
I'll throw my support behind CM7. I briefly tried ZEUS, but switched back after a couple days.

The only way to get a rom that has everything working like it should is to flash an infused based rom ...NOT an aosp rom..... cm7 is good if you don't need Bluetooth....as cm7 and miui use a different bt stack then Samsung ...so in my opinion that issue wont be fixed....and they have been known to have data issues....flash ANY of the infuse based Rome if you want complete functionality....period
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Like others say if you need BT audio or HDMI stick with Samsung roms. I could care less about both, i have been bouncing back and forth between CM7 and MIUI for months now whenever there is a noteworthy update. Both are very quick and clean in my opinion and you can't go wrong with either one. I have tried most Samsung roms available but they are always short lived on my device...they always feel as if lacking something. Props to the devs for making them available though!!!
thank guys for the responses.. I am currently running the cm7.. looks great and smooth but i got a few issues maybe its the phone itself.
first: seems like my internet/wifi doesnt stay on at times or its not using wifi even tho its turned on.
second: the browser seems to be very slow and it force closes at times maybe it the site that i go to. ESPN scoreboards, i bet a lot so i check scores frequently and open a lot of pages.
third: yeah, battery does seem to go fast maybe because of the excessive use of the web.
BTW do you guys have to put in any apns?? I didnt'.
I don't think it's your phone. I'm still new at this, but as I understand it, you can make/flash tweaks and different modems that may help with the issues you encounter. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm on cm7 and I keep going back to it everytime I flash something new. It just works the best for me. As for data issues, you need to setup the apn fix listed in n0ctrnl's compiled cm7 thread. It's in the original post I believe. Also I flashed the latest modem (uckl2) found in the sticky of development section for modems

Go to wifi settings, hit menu button and go to advanced. Under wifi sleep policy choose never. Should fix the wifi connection issues your having.
I've tried many, but Zeus is the best one that's fully functional (BT and HDMI).
if i flash the miui rom, can i just wipe data and cache than flash the rom? or do i need to do something else?

Definately Zeus for now. It's snappy, everything works and theres even a few themes as well as an ICS launcher. All the AT&T bloat has been removed. I used to prefer stock, but Zeus made me convert. It's just more responsive than any other rom for the Infuse.
It's all a matter of personal preference. I've run about 12-15 different ROMs on my Infuse so far. I keep coming back to Sensation 1.1. I really like being able to edit my status bar.
I didn't care for the camera in CM7, but it is a very nice running ROM. Only thing I miss is not having an extended power menu.
Just play with a bunch of them until you find one you like.

I was wondering what was a better ROM to use for the Infuse, ZEUS by dman, or the CM7 port?
I was using CM7 and tried Zeus 3, but ended up switching back. I didn't like it. When I saw the 5 version posted, I decided to give Zeus another try. Other than a brief GB stock try, I haven't strayed from what Dman has wrought with Zeus 5.2.

IMO Zeus is the way to go, everything works but HDMI and Dman's 5.2 build is rock solid and it's hard to go wrong with an Infuse native rom!

I love it, am having some wi fi issues i am trying to figure out. Going to try other's, even the dman recommends, just to try, i am sure i will end up running with zeus.
ps dman sent you a donation and a pm(realize now u probably don't read them), but thanks for showing me how much I love my infuse!
I CAN FROM BIONIX TO ZEUS AND it's awsome, no freeze like bionix when you unlock the screen, altough when you get a call, it tends to not responsive on the first swipe, the second try will do it. i think it's lag
i just hope it uses less memory, it's about 200~250 when you start up the phone, so far so good
speaker on both roms sucks. i drive all day and i need speaker to be really loud, both are not load enough for me. anyone have any apps or hacks that turn your speaker up?

Volume+ in the market works well for me on phone and tablet.
ZEUS is the only way to go, IMO.
I tried Zeus briefly, and if I had spent the time to fix the wifi I can see why so many people like it, but I love the look of CM7, and for my use it's been great, so I went back. If you want a stock rom, would vote Zeus, (might eventually go back to Zeus if bluetooth never gets sorted out on CM7) but CM7 is a solid port, looks good and flashes easy.

On my flash, it had issues, and from what I found on the 4000 page Zeus thread, there had been others having the same issue. I gave up trying to find the mentioned fix, sure it was there, just couldn't find it. I had flashed the ICS theme and hadn't liked the changes so I went back to CM7.
Next time I try Zeus, I'll go back to stock first as recommended on your install instructions, I'm sure I'll have better luck. Currently I'm waiting to see if the new old stock Gingerbread pushes Zeus to 5.3
rom review by a newbie user
I try this roms and Im more focused on battery juice and customability options...
Im heavy user not in things like widgets or music or videos, but I do make many calls, use mail and chat by whatsapp.
so I tell you my best (and tried) roms
caty 3.0 the fast in everything (reboot, display etc), perfect battery for smartphone, i have to use it with uckk4 b/c with newers modems no good work for my slow data.
zeus: its almost like caty for me, totally recomend specially for themes.
darkyrom, cool rom, love the touchwiz! customable, has the darky ota, an app that you can use to change thing, its like rom manager but with many options for download.
sauron rom, my current rom, i like it because of the fully customable options in power menu, settings, it is fast like darky, almost the same but with more customable options.
CM7, stable, nice boot animation, have the plus of everything the cyanogen team has to offer in a simple gingerbread launcher.
miui, I like touchwiz! I like it, the music, and themes! its so different and beatifull, but the battery issue its something important to me, the rom its not bad, remember that battery issues exist in all smartphones, but if you are not a heavy user, go for it!
I hope it helps you.
Remember that this review its just a guide, you have to try it by your own and see what it fits, you have to explore the personalizations options.

When you downloaded the darky rom? Did you have version 10.4 and in which case would you upload? I only have version 10.3 didn't realize that there was an update so I never downloaded it. A couple of different users were asking for it, so I looked and realized I didn't have the latest.
Also, because this is a port, the darky ota app does not work with this phone, and I'm PRETTY sure that it's not included... wouldn't work if it was. There's no hellraiser on the go.. lol.
If you look in the last couple pages of boost's MIUI thread, as of 2-15-12 anyway.. then you will see some tips to improve the battery life of MIUI. That should help you..
Before you make your rom final...I myself flashed damm near all the ROMs...gave the wife a headache... lol...
But figured I can honestly say I tried them....my final after many flashes...and lots of the wife rolling her eyes....lol

Also, because this is a port, the darky ota app does not work with this phone, and I'm PRETTY sure that it's not included... wouldn't work if it was. There's no hellraiser on the go.. lol.
If you look in the last couple pages of boost's MIUI thread, as of 2-15-12 anyway.. then you will see some tips to improve the battery life of MIUI. That should help you..

I downloaded darky 10.2 (newest) and I like the touchwiz and the stable no freeze... Yes, of course not all things in darky ota, it works the option of changing the lockscreen menu, boot animation. But I prefer download here from xda
Hi all,
Please recommend me some nice ROM on the following parameters:
1. Must have Features:
- Stable : Should be very stable, no freezing, no crashes and no major bugs/flows etc.
- Should be fast, responsive and smooth (without overclocking).
- Good Battery Life
- Security: Secure against hackers/viruses /Trojans etc (It should atleast bulletproof if not bomb proof). Hey I am not demanding military level
- Good signal reception for making voice calls and using data over 2G/EDGE/3G network. My country has GSM Band frequency 900/1800/2100. (I would not mind to flash individual modem for that if anybody recommends).
- Good GPS performance.
- No ATT bloatware, FB etc.
2. Some add on features:
- Customization: It would be good if the ROM has some nice customization features as comparison to stock version.
- Good Developer support for issues/updates etc.
3. I dont mind if following features/issues are unsolved in rom
- HDMI out feature
- Bluetooth headset feature (Would be good if Bluetooth file transfer can work).
- 4G network
- Wifi tethering
- Theming/animations etc.
I have tried to narrow down following ROMs:
1. R3VELATION (UCLB3 based)
2. ZEUS (UCKL2 based)
3. Vagabond ROM (UCLB3 based)
4. Any other ROM if some one wants to recommend …….
Thanks for visiting

ZEUS here since it dropped in the dev section.
And the only reason VAgabond HDMI works it b/c it has the stock kernel.
Most of the Infuse native roms based off of leaks are pretty damn stable if you ask me. (that includes the new Revelation Rom)
Vagabond
All the ROM's are good ROM's. I have tried them all and had no problems. I happen to like the base color scheme of Vagabond and the fact that the dev has taken out the most bloatware - including the Tethering Manager- which can be important at times. Currently running Vagabond and seem to get the best battery life out of it - probably because of less bloatware,
All the new Rom are completely debloaded bro

I was skeptical when I moved from Infused to Zeus... and it was worth the try... am still on Zeus... beta version
By the way, mine's underclocked to 800, and still have no lag.
I am using Infused 2.2.3 and am loving it. My first ROM. Anyone else using this one?
Zeus is great!
I'm currently on R3velation but with ICS Revamped theme added, aosp lockscreen added, and entropy DD kernal. I guess I would say use anything by Dman & the collective....
Zeus is the most stable right now. And im sure R3v will have most sod's and such worked out soon.
ive tried all three
I have used all three roms and my personal preference is R3velations. its very new and the fasted i have ever used my phone moves right through pages. i had zeus before this and its very solid also and has a ton of addons which make it nice for personalization. they both are similar and very different in their own ways. i love both of em. the infused if you need hdmi, i didnt like and hdmi dont matter too much to me. ill give it up for the tweaks. all these roms are very easy to flash and easy to set up. just like the guys always say make sure u follow directions....
ran MIUI for the longest time.. loved the customization.. but was buggy at times and never knew what the next update would bring or lose..
ran Infused for a while.. it was pretty good
then I switched to Zeus... awesome ROM... very smooth and stable.. and the themes were really nice!
now I am running R3velation. I personally love dark themes. It is super smooth! The OTA app is pretty awesome.. makes downloading and changing themes and icons super easy. The animations are amazing!!!!
I am sticking with R3velation!!!

Infused 2.2.3 was the first Rom that I flashed. It was good. Never had any issues with it. Then, after reading the posts on XDA and over at androidcentral, decided to Flash Zeus (v5). Love it. Can do so much more than with Infused, and the support is fantastic. Considering R3velation, but am very happy with Zeus for the time being.
try the roms and gives them half week to settle...
you mention 3 roms, I dont think that one is better than another, it is what our "need" want to satisfied...
devs here are so pro, so dont worry....
its like giving you the choose between ferrari or lamborgini... theyr all good
All three of those roms you mentioned are great roms. Can't go wrong with any of them. I'd also like to throw cm7 on that list since you said HDMI out and Bluetooth audio isn't important. However, it does have tons of customizations.

Hi all,
Is there any feature available in any ROM/Kernel/Mod by which i can bypass need of pressing power button or vol up down button to bring screen on. (without using Tap-Tap App of market as it keep sensor on and eats battery).
When screen lights go off i just wana press anywhere on screen to bring it back.
I will pay 10$ for that.
Thanks

IF you think about how the application has to function, what you are asking is not plausible.
The phone is never allow to sleep in order to detect the touch.
Accidental touch will also turn on the display.
Your battery wont last any more than 6-8 hours if you're lucky.
