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.

[How to] Unbrick MF3 Custom Recovery Fail

I figured that I might post this to help some people as I see this posted a lot.
Are you one of the ones that tried to install a custom recovery on the MF3 update? Are you facing a never ending boot sequence or device just freezing at boot screen?
Try this to help you get a normal boot so your phone is at least usable. (Note that your factory recovery will no longer work!)
First off, do a battery pull.
After you put the battery back in (make sure it's not plugged up) go into download mode.
Click Cancel instead of continuing into download mode. Chances are your device will boot up normal. I've tried this with a device I own and also tried it on a few others (through PM and chat online).
If this works for you please let me know!

Lol I figured this out in 2 mins of owning the phone.

Yeah it'd be good to have this info in a better titled thread than it was...and an even better titled thread than this one.
Maybe: [How To] Unbrick MF3 after (stupidly ignorantly) attempting to install a custom recovery
Anyways, it was first discovered here, as far as I can tell:

(post 11)
And there's an alternative method too, if that didn't work:

Guys I'd appreciate it if you didn't spam up this topic with nonsense.
The phone is not bricked for one.
It was never publicly announced what to do one these forums that I could find.
Edit: I just read your posted topics and neither one says to do this
The questions are asked every day by people.
This post has potential to stop some messages.
Stop posting here just to get your post count up. If you don't have anything relavent to say then find another topic.
For the guys post above me thanks for adding more ways to help try to do a workaround even though you tried to undermine me here.

If you're stuck in download mode and cannot get to your OS, I think that counts as a brick! Yes, btw, post 11 in the first thread I linked shows the solution which I have been telling others to do...which you did us the favor of making a post about as well. I agree that it's good to make this post, though I think your thread title could be more useful if you edited it.
Also, should this method not work for some people, an alternative method is a good thing to have.
Thanks again and have a nice day! :good:

I think my suggestion in post #8 is still a good one.
Your current thread title makes it sound like you tried to flash a custom recovery on MF3 and it didn't work. There's no way anyone would read that title and think there's a "How To" guide in it.

Alright maybe that will work.
Sent from miPhone using XDA Premium HD app

Lol I found this thread after I figured it out for myself. I was kind of hoping this would lead me into a way to get back my recovery.

This is how I fixed my brick.
Flashed this file in ODIN. Now my phone boots normally. Got it from another thread with a diff issue here on XDA. I tried it and it worked. Wish I could remember where and what the thread was called. I believe it was this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360859

You can start there, as it has just about everything you'll need to get it done. You'll need to have enabled adb and unchecked the update recovery before hand.
You can pm me if needed, but you don't need to pay.

Thanks for the generous offer, which I appreciate big time.
scumpicule/Sebestian wants to do both free of charge, but I replied that shall donate, on line using Team Viewer and Skype, but the only drawback is he doesn't have a OPO.
Best Regards, shall keep you updated.

Even if he doesn't have a OnePlus One, it's still fairly straight forward, but you should still take the help as they should 'hopefully' know what should be happening.
From my experience, I would highly recommend NOT rooting on windows xp as you'll have driver issues. Windows 7/8 is fine; I have no experience with a Mac.

True, but I have W7 running and Seb installed the drivers fine.

Some smart member PM me, unlock boot loader, root, flash my Chinese OPOs.
Ready to donate.
Thanks.

IF you have to have someone else root your phone then what do you plan on doing if whatever you do with it afterwards gets messed up. May I suggest you try and figure it out as it will only lead you down a darker path if something goes wrong and you dont know what to do....

I have to agree here. Having someone else unlock/root your device is an awful idea. The whole unlocking process is an essential learning experience, if you skip that you're heading into dangerous waters. If/when something goes wrong you'll have no idea what to do, and the first thing you'll do then is create an unnecessary thread begging for someone to fix your phone. OP, do yourself a huge favour and start reading, then do some more reading, and then more reading, see where I'm going here?

You didn't read a thing I said before did you. I'm not going to unlock your device for you. I don't want or need your money. Getting someone else to unlock your device for you is a very bad idea for the reasons I outlined in my previous post.
This phone is very easy to unlock, all you need to do is follow some simple instructions. You'll find them here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2788632
If you don't want to learn how to do this then you really shouldn't be modifying your device in the first place. Having a modified device requires a certain level of knowledge so that you don't brick your phone, if you don't want to spend the time learning then you're best off just leaving the phone stock.

I'm coming from multiple kernel/ROM threads, and I've always had users go over board with the feature requests, bugs, off-topic, etc.. I wanted this side thread so that it would answer most of those questions that come up. It gets annoying after a while if +10 users ask questions about things clearly in the OP.

It's a good idea in theory, but it still relies on people coming here in the first place, which unfortunately isn't going to be true for most of them. You'll most likely still get the same amount of crap in the dev thread and then a few people here too. But lets hope it works.

Yup. Since the dev and I are working together, he can give all questions the "silent treatment" and make sure others do to. Hopefully, it'll work.

That's usually the plan of attack, but it usually doesn't work. I've had a lot of experience with this, I've created heaps of these dedicated q&a threads in various device sections. People are lazy, they'll continue to post in the dev thread, they don't read the OP, they don't read instructions telling them to post in the separate thread, they don't read. They want answers yesterday and how dare we get in the way by attempting to keep XDA the way it was intended to be in the first place.
