As I stated in our PM earlier, Lollipop uses the new "ART" runtime, which requires more space. You might could give that partition back to the /data partition because, in all honesty, we may need it to continue to run all the apps we install with every clean flash. Lollipop isn't going to be a quick "dirty" flash over KK, it's gonna require some finessing of the partition table to make space. Typical full install should be around 750-800mb.:eek:

So, I'm trying to get the good old infuse working again since my girlfriend broke her iPhone and needs a temporary replacement.

I was running an old 4.2 slimbean rom with tiny DPI so I'm updating to CM11 or beanstalk.

Does anyone use the most recent CM11 builds by Vaughn (thanks for your support by the way). Or do you have better luck with an older build?

The last CM11 build I used was 20140622 and it seemed to work fine. Any upsides or downsides to the newest build? I'm not sure what the benefit of not using /datadata is and if that means I'll have to use ART?

I'm going to try the most recent CM11 (if it ever downloads) and hope that it runs smoothly for a temporary daily driver.

One thing though, the amount of blatant viruses at that d-h.st download link is shameful. Three different download links, two of them download a .exe with the same file name.

Be weary.

I run 4.4.4 from around July. It worked really well and never saw reason to upgrade. If the new version doesn't work out try 11-20140703
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PoXFreak:
This version works perfectly fine, even when running the ART runtime.

Space gets tight with big apps while on ART, but it runs.

Whoever said that notifications didn't work must have dirty flashed over another build. I've gotten every notification from Google now to Facebook to Trivia Crack.

There is no sound from speaker on any CM11 rom. How to fix this problem?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Eeson:
does this rom offer the nightly ota from cynogenmod for software updates
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mrkhigh:
No but the last time I desired an update was July.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PoXFreak:
Vaughn...

What's the latest on this?

Runs perfectly fine with no /datadata partition, but space gets thin since I've been running ART for about 3 months now.

I'd like to see how much further this can go, but CM12 isn't exactly ready for anyone yet.

I'm having problems with all of these kitkat roms. I'm only getting1.26gb of internal storage. I flashed from gb and have trird several with the same issue. What's going on? Would jb fix this?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PoXFreak:
The process is to flash to GB through heimdall or Odin, get to cwm red and flash entropy's cm9, then you can flash jb or kk because all the commits needed are in the cm9 build and subsequent jb/cm10.2 builds.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] yogi.306:
any hope for CM12 ?

anybody have any info or any leak, for CM 12 for infuse 4g? any hope :(
[Samsung Infuse 4G] callihn:
Thanks, but after flashing back to GB with pit I see that's normal for internal space (1.26gb). The issues I had with carbon which I kept the longest where that all my icons for apps moved to sd would vanish from the home screen on reboot and I couldn't find the fix in a week although I did see the same complaint by others in kk with certain launchers and the video playback was unbearable. Anyone know how to fix those? KK ran much better and I'd love to have it, I didn't test the icons on cm11 but still had the video issue as with carbon. Cyanfox was too unstable to keep very long. Frustrating.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PoXFreak:
What you're experiencing is the same problems I had with any firmware built with a /datadata partition.

What's happening is that the /datadata partition is filling to it's max capacity of 350mb and is choking the system partition.

The only kk firmware I've found and have been using since November is the one Vaughn posted in a comment in this thread. Since the /datadata partition isn't being used, it doesn't over fill and choke the /system partition.

Its either on this page our one page back...

And BTW, I'm running ART as my runtime and it's smooth as silk once everything "breaks in".

So, this one you think is smoother than the last nightly from Carbon ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PoXFreak:
Much smoother! I used Google now launcher up until last night when I switched to the latest Nova launcher. It took a few minutes to settle in with ART, but after sitting overnight it's right back to it's snappy feel..

I recommend it fully.

I can't download it... Keeps directing me to an exe, even with the download manager option disabled.

Got it, had to use JDownloader.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GIL0802:
I'm on Carbon 11/06 Build right now and i try to switch to ART and it was a mess, it crashed everything, it was unusable. I changed it to Dalvik from adb commands. Can you tell if this is happens on this ROM too ? If not, i will try this one with ART activated to see what happens!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] oiphal:
This issue can still occur but it's not too hard to avoid it. I had the same experience on Carbon with ART and thought the solution was to clean install then change to ART before installing any non-system apps. Issue was still present for me there though, probably because the datadata folder was overflowing from basically just the gapps + normal system.

On the CM11 build without the datadata folder shrinking the space in half there's room to use ART, I've been using it for several months. It is by far the most powerful of any of the currently available kit-kat builds however I wouldn't say it's the smoothest all the time, And some of the other roms do handle graphics better but none of them have the datadata issue fixed.

The important thing about ART is that you still need to convert to ART before installing anything on a clean install(if you don't have very many apps then I guess it might work without doing this). I used the PA pico gapps on a clean install then switched to ART. Even with only the pico files installed it still took quite a while to switch from dalvik to ART. I'm probably going to re-install it before too long because I have used up 850 or so MB of the data folder and the phone is getting sluggish in general. If you don't use a ton of applications then ART is going to be the better option, but as ART makes applications take up what seems to be at least 2x the space, someone using a lot of apps is going to want to stick to Dalvik as the performance gain, while noticeable, isn't massive.

Sidenote - I recommend using the SIO I/O for most tasks if you're on ART.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] twiztid_:
Been using this for just under a week, and I like it a lot, but the WiFi seems to be sucking down my battery.

Is there a way to fix this? CarbonROM seems lighter on the WiFi, from what I remember, but isn't as fast as this build over all.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mrkhigh:
Screen off WiFi off from the app store is installed on all my tablets helps battery life a lot.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Techronico:
Anyone have a mirror to this ROM and GAPPs? I cannot get through Dev-hosts Ad/malware wall. Or if there is a set of instructions to do so.

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PoXFreak:
One page back is the link (unofficial 11/06/14)...

Flash rom but not gapps package and immediately convert to ART, let it reboot and finish, then install gapps and run through the setup process. It WILL take some time to convert, and it will take some time to "settle in", but when it does you'll be satisfied.

I suggest doing it before bed at night when the phone is not in use...

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Techronico:
Which non Dev-host link are you referring to? Dev Host has gone off the deep end by putting a malware paywall up....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] callihn:
Sadly I've tried a mess if ROMs and have found nothing but disappointment. Always something broken and development seems to have died. Carbon was the most stable but I can't live with any of the issues with things not working correctly. Only one kernel so far has been able to restore correctly with CWMR and that Entropy's so I'm moving to another phone now and moving on in hopes of greater things to come.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] oiphal:
Go to wi-fi , advanced, then there are two options that likely solve your problem - Keep Wifi on during sleep and Scanning always available. Making it so wi-fi isn't always on during sleep should help.

As far as everyone asking for mirrors, are they referring to the original post or the most recent unofficial build? And as far as gapps mirrors go any of the PA 4.4.4 gapps seem to work.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] twiztid_:
I turned off the always scan, since I'm only connecting to known networks, but it was still chewing through my battery in a few hours of light use. Ended up going back to Carbon for a different reason though; with more than 2 or 3 background apps my phone slowed to a crawls so much that the soft buttons (like home and back) refused to function. They would light up as being tapped, but no action from the OS.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mrkhigh:
I actually recently restored back to stock GB and battery life was exceptional... The bugs people are talking about I guess I never noticed but GB batt life is far greater
[Samsung Infuse 4G] twiztid_:
if you don't mind downloading it on PC (and grabbing a downloader to do so), grab JDownloader and paste the link into it. Its helped me get around a bunch of malware sites like what dev-host has sadly become.

Try a factory reset.

If you are rooted, do a factory reset in TWRP for CWM (wipe data, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik). Or re-flash and then do a factory reset.

Is your Google account using 2-step authentication?

cm 10.1

Hello everybody!

I'm seriously thinking about installing the old cm 10.1 unnoficial, it was much smoothier than it is now with kitkat 4.4.4 cm-11-20141108-UNOFFICIAL-infuse.

Is anyone using it? wich version is the best cm 10.1? I have to download that..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] haky 86:
I receive the battery of infuse4g, I will download start download cm12 source this night, If anybody are interesting in this project or have information to give about feel free to contact me, at last I will try to port this rom from captivate since this device is similar to our phone :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Fullmetal Jun:
Wait wat? You'll try to put CM12 for the old Infuse? Now that's excellent news :) ;)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] haky 86:
I try just to rename updater script following porting roms guides but since system folder has been changed in one on lollipop, it's a long progress, I will do from source at all, cm12 was compiled on galaxy w, galaxy i9001, captivate and similar phones, so why not on infuse ;)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Fullmetal Jun:
Feeling very excited right now :D

Unfortunately I only know how to flash ROMs on Android! Some guys like Yogi.360 and others are more proficient and can test them for you if they still have their Infuse! I'm still using the 2014/07/03 cm11 rom since the infuse is my daily driver and this rom has good battery life!

All the best!

Cheers!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] haky 86:
since i start works to port android 5.0, as first thing we need a fully worked twrp needed to run lollipop coz it's required selinux support, so after I flash "ported" captivate omnirom I got status 6 error caused by recovery. I will post news about project without spamming or going off topic and respecting the rules of course, here some TWRP pieces that i use zImage of ics's Entropy512 branch as prebuilt kernel, if twrp will done and work fine for today of course, I will post it, let's make this phone relive again ;)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] haky 86:
OK guys, I try to compile twrp with Entropy512's tree here my following logs:

-recovery.img is more than 10mb and i think is not normal coz it's compiled yes but give this error when done; cp: cannot stat init.recovery.*.rc.

-when i flash that image it give space issue and may have some ideas xD.

-at last i need to know if the recovery should be installed as kernel or normal recovery :).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GIL0802:
We have a problem with the system partition space on the Infuse 4G, that could be a problem for Lollipop to success.

I really do not know much about compiling, i'm just followup-tutorial guy.

I wish the best to you and we'll finally have Lollipop on our Infuse. :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] haky 86:
Yes, We Can.

Actually I'm working on an experimental repo

https://github.com/hak86/android_device_samsung_infuse4g_experimental/tree/cm-12.0

it's based on Samsung Captivate device it's the most similar device we have, same board, bootloader, ramdisk and many things and that one already has android 5.0 so we can use it as source renamed to infuse4g ;), my only issue it's the kernel still can't compile one as it.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] GIL0802:
This guy were working on the Infuse too.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PoXFreak:
Okay, the first problem you're going to hit will be the kernel code being too old. The infuse kernel is a heavily patched version of the original gingerbread kernel from late 2011. Entropy, among a few other developers, including myself, had a hard time bringing up Bluetooth and keeping everything together in the kernel to get ICS up and running, and to my knowledge it's still not 100% working.

Second, with Lollipop running strictly on the ART runtime, which unpacks apk files upon install, unlike dalvik, which unpacks an apk to open the app and keeps small XML and sqlite files in folders inside the /data partition. With even small gapps packages exceeding 200mb, there isn't much room for /system to grow if needed, hence my previous idea of repartitioning the entire 16gb onboard and dedicating 1/4 of it to /system and anything system related.

Thirdly, this device barely meets the minimum memory requirement of 512mb, which Google set as a bare minimum for "acceptable performance". Since the ram is wholly separate of the 16gb ROM memory, there isn't anywhere to regain ram. Zram is outdated, and setting up swaps inside either /cache or /sdcard would prove detrimental to performance, I don't see this happening.

Selinux is a whole other problem in and of itself, and one I'm not too familiar with yet...

Back when we brought jb to the infuse, I knew it could be done.

With this I'm not so sure.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] treehugger38294:
Honestly, Lollipop is more trouble than it's worth. The Infuse will enjoy far better and more stable performance on KitKat than Lollipop; my Nexus devices took months for bugs to get squashed and some are still there. KitKat ROMs still have far more features than any Lollipop ROMs.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Terr20114:
What you're saying makes sense, the system and data partition are small on the infuse. After I switched to the Galaxy s2 (i777) I had a hard time using ART on CM11 but then I found .pit files to repartition the system and data partition to make them bigger allowing even installation of stock package gapps (400mb+). Seems something similar would have to be done to the infuse 4G but with kernel issues, RAM, SeLinux n all those might cause problems. I remembered how hard it was getting ril to work on the s2 with lollipop but now it's running okay. I love the infuse but after upgrading to the s2 I realized that with the infuse I was fighting a battle kitchen knife, the s2 felt more like a sword. Exynos S2s (i9100 and i777) are very cheap on eBay today it would be great to grab one, repartition, flash lollipop and over clock, you'll get antutu scores as high as 21000+ that's faster than many 2014 phones. I'd still love to see the infuse running 5.X.X though ;). [MENTION=5175590]yogi.306[/MENTION] its been a while man, hope you're okay.

My infuse serves more as a heavy WiFi hot spot with the extended battery.

I have to give it props though: 4 years, 3 batteries and covers, multiple charger cables...

But it still works perfect. No power button issues or flaky USB port, and even after being dropped quite a few times, no broken screen or hardware issues!

I'm not bragging or trying to be praised or anything, just want everyone to be clear that having a booting infuse this early in the game is very damn impressive.
