Hi guys, sorry for having my first post be of this nature... I am excited about finally getting a new Android version on my Infuse, and CatyRom looks like it will be really good. However, I am trying to install, but not sure if it is hung. I had the samsung screen come up, with the voice giving updates. So far so good. Then a really flashy graphic (really cool looking), and at this point I have been seeing this constantly going for about 20 minutes. Is it stuck or is it installing in the background? I'm freaking out a bit so any feedback would be great!!

EDIT: After waiting a while longer, and watching other infuse updates on youtube (no catyrom's unfortunately), I believe this must be the bootloader, and that it was somehow stuck, so I restarted the phone. It boots back up, past the Samsung screen, into the fancy bootloader, and I'm stuck once more.

Any ideas???

EDIT 2: Well, ended up unbricking it and getting back to stock...unless anyone have ideas on what I can do to be more successful, I suspect I'll stay stock for a while (for the most part I followed the Rammstein tutorials on youtube (except he did not load catyrom). Any input would be greatly appreciated though!!

You have to have gingerbread bootloaders to run my rom
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tosvus:
Thanks for the responses! Since i dont know what that is, i suspect not! I went to the one-stop infuse page but didnt find anything that fit the description. Do you iu have a more specific name, or link? Thanks again!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Flash the uckj4 stock leak via odin to get the bootloaders
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tosvus:
Perfect, i will give that a try, thanks!!

I've been meaning to try out this rom but I'd like to see it in action. Screenshots is not enough for me to make the switch. Does anyone have a video of CatyRom in action?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Don't make video screenshots....just flash and try for a day...you don't like flash something else...but its nice having a rom MEANT for the infuse, on it...:)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hwaters:
Hey Dman. I'm about to update my infuse from infused 1.5 (froyo fun times) to right now this rom since it isn't a port and is still updated.

Do the gingerbread roms (and I guess specifically this rom) still have a laggy stock lockscreen? (the one that you can swipe the entire lockscreen to unlock the phone).

Also, does gingerbread on the infuse still mute the first phone call on boot (or was that just the ports)?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
That's just the ports...everything works on catyrom bro
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hwaters:
awesome. glad they fixed the weird issues from the Rogers Gingerbread source (or do we have an at&t gingerbread source now).

I haven't been here in months so...sorry if my questions seem kinda dumb.

edit: one other question.

edit the edit: the one other question was dumb.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ryanbmw51:
The first call issue is non existent with this rom. As crazy as it may sound that is probably my favorite thing about catyrom! Lol.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hwaters:
Now I need to figure out how to turn the ICS software home/back buttons off. *looks around through stuff*

edit: just gonna try it without ICS and also can I turn on voodoo lagfix or does that not work with this rom? Can't find anything either way in the threads.

Folder Background Color

This is the second ROM I've flashed so far. The first was the Infused V2.2.3, which was pretty cool. I've been running CatyRom Extreme ICS Edition V2.1 for the past 3 days now and it seems to be flawless.

I do have one question, is it possible to change the color of the folder background to a solid color instead of the transparent? I've tried searching through the settings, but couldn't find any options.

Thanks for an awesome ROM. :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ridhi:
Hey i am new to all this and i read some where there are 2 recoveries for infuse red and greeen.

My question is can i flash this ROM from green recovery ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rhcedba:
This is my first ROM

I am downloading it now.

Is the OP (not sure what that means) in the zip I am downloading.

I am currently running the stock OS; just finished rooting it. Any words of wisdom for a first timer?

I user titanium backup to get my contacts and pics.

I'm a little nervous being my first time and all. From what I have read this is a great ROM.

Is this actual ICS or is it just themed?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bignate78:
Themed ICS.

OP is Original Post as in first post in thread and tells you the instructions on how to flash this rom.

If you seriously don't know Anything about flashing, Go Search and Read up on it before you do something you don't know and if what does and doesn't happened and start flooding the threads or posting new ones with questions that have already been answered. Just a heads up before you get too deep and get blasted for it.

can someone please help me with installing this. I rooted (super 1 click) > changed recovery > got CWM (via Rom Manager) > transferred this ROM.zip file from pc to phone > then went into CWM screen and clicked "reset all user data/factory reset" option and confirmed "yes".. but now the phone is stuck on some screen with yellow text and no progress.

Any guidance appreciated

ok i pressed the back button on my infuse and now i have gone back to my stock rom/ factory reset. i know the catyrom is still on my sd card so how do i "flash" that???
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Probably a soft brick...

Probably shouldn't use ROM manager.

Read up on Q/A threads re:soft brick and how to flash back to stock...

you need either odin or heimdall

The links for the soft unbricks are in the DEV sections...use either adam outler or gtg's

good luck

Never ever ever ever ever use rom manager to flash roms ....ever....

Noob infuse rooting flashing question

Sorry for posting in this thread but I would like to give this Rom a go when my infuse gets here, all help really appriciated.

I usually am an expert in unlocking/flashing HTC devices but Samsung if the unknown.

I have unlocked an infuse (Brother in Laws) lately by following :-

1) rooting first http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8532790&postcount=1

2) installing rooted rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1092021

3)finally had to network unlock it http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1176886

4)installed darky extreme edition.

Now he complains about the bat taking long to charge (he did not do a full cycle when he got the mobile it was new) bat also drains fast.

What he is going to do is full power cycle then clear bat stats and take it from there.

My question now is :-

Do I follow the same method above on my new infuse arriving in a week and since I am looking for a stable, fast easy on battery rom (hopefully caty rom will be all this for me ) is flashing as easy as HTC i.e mytouch 4g

1)root

2)install cwm

3)wipe etc

4)install custom rom

from here on all that needs to be done to install a custom rom is wipe and install custom.

is it the same on the infuse 4g??

cheers

Was using Netflix app, rotated phone (screen roated fine), then i rotated it back.. phone froze and turned off by itself and turned on agian...???wat??

Q) also, how do i change the theme back to the ones in the screen shot?.. i don't like the ICS theme look at all?

My first ROM...CatyROM 2.1

It's awesome and I love it.

It did crash on me yesterday while I was in the middle of a phone conversation and went into a cycle of continuous rebooting.

I manually powered off the phone; powered it on and let it sit for 10 minutes or so and it was fine.

Other than that it has been flawless.

I would like to OC/UV this ROM though. My live wallpaper and games are a bit choppy and the phone is slow to respond sometimes. Any advice in regards to OC'ing this ROM?

Great work dman and thanks to bignate for his advice.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ateebtk:
another issue i have noticed.. while texting someone (via google voice app).. the keyboard was super laggy (like 20 seconds a character) and was unusable. For example I would press a bunch of keys but they wouldn't appear on screen until after 10-15 seconds.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
Dman, I noticed on catyrom 2.0 that the screen lock is a bit laggy. Audio playing music will also lag while trying to unlock the phone. Just curious to know what could be causing it. I've flashed two times and done factory resets, cleared all caches and dalvik cache and tried to see if it would help. Have you yourself experienced screen lock lags trying to unlock your phone using Pattern or glass effect?

thanks friends...There was not restarted after flashing cel restarted it and get started operations on bluetoo....thanks goooooddd aporttt.:D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MattSoRaven:
Nic,

All you're missing is the step where you install gingerbread bootloaders. In order to install Catyrom, you need those gingerbread bootloaders that come with the leaks.

You can use Odin and install the uckl2 leak from Prezkret that's in the dev section.

Also, Dani897 just posted a guide for installing bootloaders in the Dev section if you don't want to install the whole leak. the thread says "bootloaders!"
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Chrisstew14:
What can I use besides ROM manager. I have to flash cwm to get recovery don't i.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Chrisstew14:
Odin?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Never ever use rom manager

Ok so dont use rom manager........ and i need to use ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] crulpower:
This Rom is amazing. I am loving it. I haven't found any issues besides the power control widget only loads blank buttons.. I have wiped all data and reflashed several times, while end results are same.

Would it be possible to look into this? I have searched the market and tried power control Widgets but they don't have same permissions / actions available as the native rom widget (direct brightness change and e.t.c)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] EXPERIMENT:
For power control widget,

Put the blank one on your screen pull your notification bar down, turn off, then on (or vice versa) blue tooth or wifi, that should fix it ;)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] EXPERIMENT:
I have ROM manager installed from when I first put gtg's infused on, but I don't EVER open or use it that I know of. You need to get to red recovery. Power off your phone then hold both up and down on volume buttons and the power (3 buttons)

Hold all three, Samsung will appear, keep holding, Samsung will disappear, then when it reappears > let go. Wait and you should have red. And now you know and, as a wise voice once told me knowing is half the battle. Yo Joe.

Battery Life?

Need help. Had amazing battery life on 1st charge on this ROM (22 hours). But now I only get 9-10 hours with absolute minimal use. Android OS seems to be using most of the battery.

Do I pay up and buy Juice Defender Plus? or is something else at fault?

I have removed notifications for facebook, twitter, EMAIL (yahoo), beautiful widget weather. I only have 2 homescreens on ADW launcher with 1 widget.

Any help AND battery saving tips appreciated.

- additionally Q) Will the app SetCPU conflict with this ROM? (trying to have max battery life)

I just installed uckl2 leak from Prezkret and I cannot root :(.

Some help would really be appreciated in getting caty on here :)

Cheers,

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
You could disable data, wifi, and sync off when not in use. I save about 40% battery life doing those steps. Usually when you install a new rom you'll need to do a battery pull or 2 after the rom settles a bit.

is installing setCPU or Voltage control recommended for this ROM??
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
This was very easy to install, everything works Great! Only bugs I see are sometimes when I turn the screen on my touchscreen doesn't work till I turn off the screen and turn it back on then it's fine, Occasional lags but nothing compared to other roms I have used. I guess one of the tweaks are causing initial lags here and there, I have no way of determining which 1 it could be if it is.

Having battery life issues. rom is amaxing and i think i found my dd, but it sat for 3 hours in standby and i lost 25% of battrty due to android OS. (cpu) is what it said. any ideas?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ateebtk:
im having similar battery draining issues despite turning off all notifications, syncs on all apps.

(If u already haven't done so) you might wanna try to go into apps like facebook/twitter/etc. and turn notifications off or delay them for as long as possible. Also, I tried turning off data+wifi at night since I don't need it but still get terrible battery life.

It was great on the 1st charge but now i barely get 9-10 hours w/ MINIMAL use.

Is Voltage control app recommended for use w/ this? or will it interfere w/ this ROM? (second time asking)

It works fine....idk about the battery issue...i always got 18 hrs or more with heavy use

reporting back on my poor battery life issue. I downloaded this battery calibration app that resets the battery history. This has fixed my problem. Last charge cycle with my usual MINIMAL use I got 1 day and 13 hours with 18% battery left. I have decided to keep this ROM.

Very impressive battery life.

Installed the ICS version 2 days ago and really nice so far. I love how quick the lockscreen is and it doesn't lag or jitter or slide back to lock while unlocking like the stock one. It's too bad we can't replace the icons back with your custom ones. I think gmail and maps went out on their own as soon as I flashed and updated kind of ruining the theme. The rom is running pretty fast for the most part.

Couple of issues so far:

1) Been on 2 days and each day when the network is busy and you dial a call and the "dialing" screen is on for a while I have tried to end call and it is like the dialer is hanging. I think I had to reboot to get rid of it each time.

2) BT is a little slow to start and connect versus the last stock leak.--Saw a reflash fixed this for a few people.

3) This AM I rebooted phone at 100% didn't use it at all (running late from reading catyrom thread :) ) and about 1.5 hours later it ate about 14% battery. It said dialer and google services each chomped 25% and the phone was laggy as hell like something was still running in the background. Not sure what that would be since I had just rebooted and I have never seen dialer on the top usage before.

4) GPS so far is worse for me. Is everyone testing with straight GPS (leave wireless networks unchecked)? (I am) Also, are you reporting first lock after boot or second or what? I noticed on stock leak lock could take say 10 seconds for first lock and like 2 if tested right after. This rom still takes a while on the second try.

I don't expect you to solve any of this from afar but just reporting.

Thanks for the nice quick rom. Can't wait to see more updates and congrats on being recruited to the collective.

dman--I was having intermittent issues of rild/dialer taking up to 10% of battery use. This also coincided with the phone being extremely laggy.
