best infuse rom

make your case here
Been happy to run stock for a while, but going to load something new tomorrow

currently using infused 1.5, I like the stock look but wanted the extra tweaks and features like bloatware gone, better battery life and its noticably faster.
Infused gives you 2 options at startup for launcher, either a much more revamped version of touchwiz 3 or the gingerbread style launcher with 3d drawer. I prefer the revamped tw. most of the core components your used to with stock will be there but you get the open market, not att crappy version, widget picker so your list isn't a mile long, hotspot enabled and some other stuff, just read the changelogs. So if you love the stock look but want the added stuff infused is for you.

I never understand questions like these lol. There isn't a best, it's a matter of personal preference.

indeed, that's why I asked for people's opinions and to state their case
I've never understood questions like yours, where people feel the need to but into other threads just to tell them how stupid their question was.

You. Should Read the entire thread of both roms you're interested in and ask questions there. There's no need to clog up the forum with pointless threads.
It's pointer because there are already threads about the roms. Post there.

I apologize for not asking King Shadow65781 permission to post something in General, and for wasting your highness's precious time with my pointless thread.
65781, I'm assuming you're from Missouri?
That would surely explain a lot

I'm using Infused 1.5 (with the 4.5 TouchWiz launcher found here) + bedwa's Infusion Kernel.
Gtg's rom is already very smooth and quick, added in the OC from the Infusion kernel and this phone flies. Also, the battery life is pretty great thanks to the rom in itself and the UV'ing from the kernel.
Really enjoying this setup as of now, the only thing that would really make me change is if a developer produced a CyanogenMod rom or an MIUI rom.

Having tried all three, there isn't a huge difference and it comes down to personal preference. Once you're on ext4 you can literally flash a new rom and kernel in the same amount of time it took you to come up with that monster slam "what are you from Missouri" lol
Edit: and trust me, once you flash one, you'll end up trying them all. You should start with infused since his thread has very noob-friendly instructions for people like you

I've flashed more roms than I care to in my time, but I'm traveling on work and I have limited time I'm on wifi to download roms to install. Don't want to wait 2 more weeks until I get back home, so I figured I'd ask people who have roms installed.
that was a nice attempt at an insult in the edit, but you betray your ignorance in the first paragraph when you defended Missouri.
In the words of Grandpa Simpson "I'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I recognize Missourah."

Thanks for posting this thread and in the right spot!
I have infused and enjoy it, I am curious about the others but all the rom threads are wanked now.
There are a couple of things I have to do on a daily basis that make switching roms every other day impractical.
My phone requirements run more to usability than looks, fortunately the infused rom provides a nice stable base for both.

made the thread in general discussion and kids just still can't help but flame
what the hell's this forum for if you can't even make a thread about favorite roms and pro's/con's without being flamed by 12 year olds

Shouldn't have called the thread "best infuse rom" maybe "which rom works best for you and why"
Frankly, there is no best rom. Its all preference.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App

There's a reason we mods don't like "best rom" threads. Unnecesary flaming, name calling, etc.
Like the others said: there is no "best" rom, only the one that best suits you. And you have to find it yourself, no one can do it for you.
Closed.

Roms

As a developmentle question there was a thread posted in the development section saying there were few roms for the infuse. I am here to say that i would love to help with this question bye working on a rom what im here to ask is if some one can help me get on my feet and point me the right way. Ive never created a rom but i love doing this stuff ive ported tones of themes and built tones but i need some guidence on this if someone could help or take me under there wing i would love to put my time i.to developing and creating things for the community

I would also like to learn how to develop roms

Me too. I tried making this thread a while ago to no avail. Maybe we will have better luck now.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App

The process for creating ROMs on the userland side is pretty generic to Android, you may want to do some generic Android research.
Personally I'm fine with the level of ROM development. Quality, not quantity.

I am perfectly fine with the roms we have as well but i would also like to strech my horizions and be able to contribute. "Having roms that we are fine with doesnt meam there should be less development" with that said i would like to return to my first post and get.sone.help in learning
sent from my Infused goodness

As I said, do some searching. MikeyMike01 has a pretty good tutorial located somewhere else on XDA - captivate forums maybe? Or generic Android possibly, I don't remember.

Thank you for the reply i will look into that.
P.s. This is the kinda response people need to hear

I totally agree with you blaq.
There has been way too many unwanted and unnecessary noises on this forum, during the recent past.
I don't know whether it is the case of "one too many".
There are too many developments going on and am waiting to see how many are successfully completed.
I also agree with what you said, one of your other post,
"Dev releases should be for select few".

The general section (this one) have to be used to Q&A thread, not the dev section. It's so simple.

Every body wants the easier way out.
Ask Q and get A. Don't want to read a thread or search Google, which is not that difficult, is it?
When we were noobs, (though i consider myself as a senior noob), we used to follow the rule of reading the thread before posting.
There are only two solutions to this issue.
1. Either give answers to each Q. without getting frustrated.(Easier to say than to do practically)
2. Do not respond to the questions.

I attribute this to "EXCITEMENT".
You will agree to this that, till some time back there was very little development. Then Custom Roms came, Cm7 came, now Kernels are coming. There is an explosion of development. All want to show their latest and greatest. In doing so, they are forgetting the basic rule of S/w development "Test Cycle before Beta Release".
The user base is suffering as a result, which is making the Dev's suffer in return.

Agreed and agreed
Been using this phone from the scratch...then a bond to developement had been build... Then come developements..
But now things has been changed..but still no regrets ..at least we have done something for SL and I enjoyed It...

The development has been explosive no doubt but we are still left with a lot of half baked stuff, not to diss any devs here, you guys are honestly magicians in making the impossible possible but I feel there are too many separate things going on right now, but we do not have a single Fully developed Rom! I know its a matter of time and patience but many have tried and left too, its just that almost all the developments have the same bugs (camera, video rec,push notifications) so a collective effort to perfect these issues needs to be looked into.
But hey! keep up the good work! I never expected so much and thought it was a hopeless situation last year but things are a changin

Being a new member here, I was also glad and surprised at the explosive development with our phone. We got some of the most wanted ROMs (CM7, MIUI, CM9, etc.), and I guess some people also wanted those.
What they really don't understand is that all of these roms are under development.
I agree with ganesh on the excitement. Everybody is excited of having a new ROM for their phones, testing everything and all that, but then the problem is
they(or we newcomers) expect everything to work in the first version.
That's what I observed here. Even I, ironically, had to help fellow newbies as much as I can with the same question/bug repeated all over and over (*cough*blacklight issue*cough*).
plus, developers are humans too. That's what we all really missed. People here are eager to have new ROMs, but the greed or want of the ROM comes at the expense of complaining when they know it is a WIP.
Many signs have been put like
CAUTION THIS IS A WIP
and others, but still, they flash anyway. I'm guessing most of the newbies here have had it easy in their old phones whatever they may be, OR they can just be enthusiastic users who have just plunged into the Android world for the first time (like me. )
Well, I'm not a developer, as much as I want to contribute, but then I guess etiquette will have to apply as well. I try to read all the posts which I have missed, and see if there are any new updates and all.
tl;dr Anyway, whatever happens, let's just be thankful we all (actually you guys) have gone this far. There will always be annoying newbies in the forum, anyway. Some will learn to mature. Some will not.

Here's a more important question for you. Why do people keep putting these idiotic posts about no development in the development section? If you just can't live without ROMs to flash start learning how to make them yourself instead of complaining about it.

Alright, this is the last time Im letting this happen. The rules clearly state not to post non-development threads in the Development section. The next person who does this will be sorry.
Development is for Development, not for asking questions or making stupid statements.

[Q] Galaxy s 4G ICS

Do you think we will ever have ICS on the galaxy s 4g? I mean we saw it on G1, and lots of unsupported phones, and on the galaxy s 1 which doesn't support ICS officially. What is the problem stopping the development ?

Threads like this.
Also, the other phones have like a billion and one kernel devs. Not to mention our phone is Sammy's black sheep, by that I mean this phone is way different from other sgs.
Lastly, we have at least 3 other ICS threads why not ask there?

Why does everybody get annoyed when a regular person just wants to know whats wrong out of curiosity? I don't want any ROM or anything I just wanted a technical answer. is the problem the source code being unreleased? will the company ever release it?
I wish I could help, I would really love to. Its like a dream or long term goal to be a dev, study programming languages etc... but that requires lots of time and I'm just waiting a bit as i'm not sure where to start.
I am sorry for any misunderstanding as I know Devs already have rough days and nights with developing and improving. I wasn't "Demanding" or "pushing" as i'm not that person. I am just seeking knowledge, and if the Q&A section isn't the right place to search for Knowledge then I don't know where is.

The problem isn't with you so much as it is with the million dollar question that's been asked and answered a million times....its the question all devs cringe over when they see it repeated time n time again.
Put yourself in their shoes for a minute.....they put out as much as they can with what they can and people keep popping up this same question like they just aren't happy with what they are getting

To answer your question, and anybody else that wants to ask,
It is being worked on. We cannot get ICS to boot due to coding and kernel issues. I semi successfully ported an ICS ROM, but due to all the mods and changes, it felt empty. So we went back to the drawing board and started over. Since we don't have source code, it makes things much more difficult. Be patient. And for the record, the first place to search for knowledge is Google. Fb is right though. We do need more help. The more people we have working on this, the better our chances are. Learn how to compile kernel and ROM from source. Learn scripting. And learn how to Google...

I do understand what you mean, and I already put myself in the dev's shoes and I really admire their work, all of it. But I went through all the threads regarding ICS, and sadly their aim is to push , demand and request stuff from devs as if devs don't have enough on their minds already, and that is really annoying and disrespectful. But not all people are like that. I don't have any requests( I have a Nexus S with ICS, SGS 4g CM7.2) I am just seeking knowledge.
I am really grateful for what each and every DEV offers as it is from their personal and free time. Sorry for any misunderstanding

What Thomas posted is true but the main reason we dont have a working ICS port is this statement above.
The op makes a good point, this is the Q&A section. Even tho there are many threads asking this same question most of them have ended up in bashing with nerf bats or a mod locking because of insults. Ive read the other threads, but most people will stop reading when the conversation turns sour. You might actually read the other posts but your mind shuts it down. So a informative post will slip in and you wont catch it.
The biggest problem with threads that ask this question is assumptions. When people stop assuming and start to understand the person asking the question things get resolved.
