Yeah by now we're all aware of the "4G" and what it does and doesn't mean in reality....

The Infuse is Cat 14 (21 mbps).

The SGS II is Cat 8 (7.2 mbps) from my understanding.

Wondering if Korean vs UK makes a diff.

Be careful with Tune-in and/or wifi. Tune-in was running in the background (but it was NOT playing) and wifi was on. One of the two destroyed my battery from 98% down to about 85% in an hour. Screen was off. I'll get some wakelock stats to start figuring it out. Anyone else have battery drains with either of these in the background on this rom?

(Never had a problem with either on other versions of Infused or stock)

I think I understand the issue now, thank you kindly.

Given the fact that we have no idea when at&t will decide to grace us with the official GB, if we want it before that, that is the only way to go.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] AJerman:
There are links all over XDA and Google. Just search for it. There are a couple of methods of installing it. The easiest is a CWM update.zip file, however, that would of course require you to install a kernel that you can see CWM with, then reflash a kernel that doesn't have broken video and camera.

Or you can do what I did and replace the files manually.

[Q]: Rainbows in camera

I remember reading something about it in the old v.1 thread, but not sure what is the latest on this:

I have flashed from 1.5.3 to V2b2 full with no issues, all working *except* camera below:

I have not touched the bootloader, so it is the 'rainbows' one.

However, when I go to use the camera, the viewfinder is 'rainbowed'

Is this the current state of the viewfinder, or is it something that goes away with time, or is it something that I have to return to stock and deal with?

Thank you in advance.

That's not the easiest way - this is the easiest way - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brainwashstudio.talkinstaller&feature=search_result

Note: You need v2 Beta 2 for the app above to work. v2 beta 1 was missing a symlink from the cp command to Busybox.

Also don't use the full gapps CWM package - unless you enjoy Market forcecloses.

Nope. It seems that the device was not marketed as having MHL support in Canada, and did not get released with functioning MHL. It's missing in the kernel, and some other places too.

Last night I enabled MHL in the kernel and it seems to be partially working - there is cable detection in dmesg. However, there was no video output. Something else is missing, either the G2D driver in the kernel (enabled in Froyo, disabled in GB kernels, does not compile if enabled in defconfig) or somewhere in the userland stack. Unless I find something obvious (might need to flash back to Froyo...) we might not get working MHL until AT&T releases Gingerbread.

You need to wait a few minutes. It MIGHT be that you just need to turn the screen off and then back on after a minute or so. It happens only shortly after bootup.

well that and the known rainbow issue
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mfpearson:
everything working perfectly

gtg, you are the man - followed your instructions to update from 1.5.3, and it worked perfectly.

i was up and running in less than 5 minutes, and aside from the rainbow screens on startup, i have absolutely no bugs (knock on wood). everything is calibrated, video playback and camera both work fine, gallery is fine... it feels like i have a completely new phone! even got the gchat with video working - works flawlessly with the link posted a few posts back.

the gingerbread rom definitely feels much smoother than infused 1.5.3 - well worth the upgrade for those who may be holding out. i was worried because i had zero flashing experience (coming from iPhone and blackberry) aside from 1.5.3 - but just follow gtg's instructions in the OP, and everything will be perfect.

i re-downloaded TiBu, but didn't restore anything. i have been re-downloading my apps 1 by 1, as to avoid any potential problems that have been reported on here. so far, so good.

can't wait to see what you have in store for us next... will be donating for sure!

I am sure someone has posted some help on this but just as a potential follow up.

App backup and restore

is free in the market.

It does not backup/restore data BUT!!!!!

It's crazy simple

It's a good easy interface

It backs up to your external SD. (multiple versions too if there are any)

Oh.....and did I say it was FREE?

It has never failed me yet, no force closes on any of my re-installs.

If you have data for an app that needs to be saved, most of those folders are on your internal SD, just copy the folders to your PC, when you have everything on your phone updated and back to normal just copy your saved folders back to the phone (replacing existing ones if needed) and viola.......done.

Not all apps back up to the SD but most do, some you just have to deal with starting over unless you are rooted and can find the saved data file for the app.

NO. Maybe you should read a few pages back before asking - I posted a detailed status of where we are in regards to HDMI 2-3 pages back.

I'm fairly certain no one has BLN working on Beta 2. Maybe you confused Infused v2 betas with the Infusion kernel 2.0?

Infusion 2.0 is a Froyo kernel with BLN.

Infused v2 beta is Gingerbread with only a few minor kernel tweaks from stock currently (mainly Voodoo Lagfix), no BLN.

Can anyone help me to figure out the video playback problem?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
I'm not sure if Odin is available for Macs. Heimdall is a bit more difficult to use but is available for Macs.

The whole point of this is to get the Rogers Gingerbread ROM on AT&T - nearly everyone here is on AT&T.

If you are an AT&T user this is a massive improvement in power management due to the PM improvements in Gingerbread. The main disadvantage is the rainbows on boot. In the case of Infuses (and any Samsung phone), custom ROMs are almost guaranteed to be better in terms of smoothness unless the ROM author really ****ed up. This is because Samsung's default filesystem (RFS) is utter and complete crap compared to ext4. (The basic idea of Voodoo Lagfix is automatic conversion of filesystems to ext4).

Fortunately we don't have too many people doing ROM and kernel work, the end result is almost all of the devs are routinely communicating and there aren't really any "hey look at me I can cook a ROM!" ROMs here, unlike many other phones.

Edit: However, if you use the MHL adapter (HDMI), you should stick with Froyo for now. Rogers did not advertise or include MHL/HDMI support. It was completely missing in their kernels, we're working on bringing it back but the "low-hanging fruit" of just enabling it in defconfig was not the only thing we needed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
You see rainbows or a black screen?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
yes this works on att infuse. and the "no rainbow kernel" is just for people that previously flashed v2 beta1. if you have CWM you can flash v2 beta2.

if you need to get cwm there are a few ways. you can root, install a modified 3e recovery and install rom manager, flash cwm recovery and reinstall packages twice. then you can flash the rom.

or you can flash a cwm enabled voodoo kernel in Odin or heimdall. Odin can be run in a virtual machine running windows if you have access to a windows CD or you can do the same with bootcamp and have a dualboot setup. heimdall can be run on macosx. just Google it. or if you already have root you can use a market apparently called sgskernel flasher.

i've been playing with this for 12 hours now, and it is truly incredible.

finally ran into my first "bug" and it is totally negligible.

i think this may have been mentioned before, but i couldn't find it so it must've gotten buried somewhere... but adobe flash player 10.3 does not work with the stock browser on this rom.

it is totally negligible because it gave me an excuse to switch to opera, which is definitely more powerful than the stock browser. adobe flash does in fact work with opera, and i am guessing it works with dolphin too.

i had an updated version of the stock browser when i was running v 1.5.3 - not sure if flash player would work with the updated stock browser, or whether the updated stock browser will even work with this v 2 b 2 rom (although i don't see why not...).

as i said already, this "bug" is a nothing - keep up the great work gtg, and lurkers - don't be scared to flash this rom. it is fully functional.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
is it blue? because that would.be 3e recovery, the cwm install is explained countless times all over these forums but ill do it again. cwm doesn't launch by default you need to push a modified recovery file to /system/bin that removes the signature verification then reboot and reinstall packages twice in stock recovery. after you get cwm once rom manager may launch it afterwards but launching recovery from the 3 button combo will launch 3e and reinstalling packages will get to CWM. that or you can flash a voodoo kernel of your choice via other means( Odin,heimdall, sgs kernel flasher)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
no the crazy rainbow stuff is because of incompatible bootloaders. sorry the development are still working.on this. the proper bootloaders wont flash for unknown reasons Samsung seems to have put a lock on them, likely because of a large number of bricked galaxy s devices from bootloader mismatches. to get out of that depends on if it still boot up fully.

if it boots into the rom then you can download sgs kernel flasher and flash the "no rainbow" kernel. this.kernel however breaks the camera preview and maybe video playback. if the rom doesn't boot use Odin to flash the no rainbow kernel form your.computer. you.need to be in download mode to Odin flash. that is hold the volume bar and plug in the USB cable when the phone is powered down.

the no rainbow kernel is in the op.

you may prefer the 1.5.3 Froyo version of the rom. sorry but gb just isn't ready yet unless you don't mind broken features or you happen to have a Rogers infuse which has the proper bootloaders.

yeah, many people just flash to stock when the run into trouble. there are usually options though unless you had a failed lagfix conversion and the logs get screwy preventing the process from completeing on the next boot. of if a flash fails and screws up param.ifs or some other file critical to recovery mode.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Misterjunky:
re: save text

titanium backup does not backup or restore text or other user created files and documents.

But don't worry about your important texts and such cause when you flash new roms things like texts do not get deleted even if you use clockworkmod recovery and select "wipe data/factory reset".

It is a good idea to either manually backup those important files to your computer time to time...... Most any windows backup software can back those personal text files or other personal files for you automatically without needing to manually do it.

Have a great day.
