Questions thread DO NOT POST RANDOM QUESTIONS IN THE DEVELOPMENT THREAD




Welcome to a new and sick, twisted world

Ever wish you could take one of those nice shiny GalaxyS (i9000) ROMs and flash it to your lovely Infuse? Well now you CAN! Yes, I say GO AHEAD and flash away. With LinuxBozo's magic Hellraiser, you can raise a little hell with any JVQ based i9000 ROM on your Infuse.

How's it work?
Select any JVQ based ROM for the i9000. If you don't know what this is, then this is not for you.
Push your selected ROM to your /sdcard
Download Hellraiser below
Push Hellraiser to your /sdcard
Reboot into Recovery (RED RECOVERY PREFERRED)
Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Flash your chosen JVQ ROM
Flash Hellraiser immediately after
Reboot and enjoy your JVQ ROM goodness
PLEASE NOTE: I am not responsible if something goes wrong. Seriously. If you don't flash Hellraiser correctly, you can be left with a phone that needs to be returned to stock with Odin or Heimdall. If you don't know how to do this, this is not for you.


FAQ:
Do I need to disable Voodoo Lagfix?
Nope.
Can I flash JVO/JVR/JVP ROMs as well?
You should be able to possibly, but I only tested with JVQ. So you are on your own there.
Can I flash i9000 Kernels with this?
NO
Can I flash other Infuse Kernels, like Infusion to get OC/UV?
YES. Neat, huh?
Can I flash i9000 CM7 or MIUI with this?
NO. This will only work with Samsung based ROMs
Can I flash Samsung based Captivate ROMs as well?
This has been reported to work by at least one user. Make sure it's Samsung Gingerbread based, preferably JVQ as well.
Which ROM do you recommend?
Which one you choose really is a matter of preference. However, I tested with Sensation from Crysis21: [ROM]SensatioN by CRYSIS - A ROM from another Galaxy - SensatioN 2 Themed!!! - xda-developers
How does this work behind the scenes? How is this even possible?
What Hellraiser does is flash in appropriate hardware libraries and userspace applications, and the Infuse specific modem (UCKE3) and kernel. This allows the existing i9000 ROM to work on the Infuse all while still thinking it's an i9000, but addressing the Infuse hardware.
How can I possibly increase my 4G speeds?
adb pull /system/default.prop
adb pull /system/build.prop
Open your favorite editor, and copy the ro.ril.* settings from default.prop
Paste those ro.ril.* settings into build.prop, overwriting any existing properties
Remount /system as read-write
adb push build.prop /system

Known Issues:
First phone call after a boot will not have sound. Any calls after that are fine. So, try to make a call right after booting to fix it.

Any other questions? For answers go to: [Q&A]

Like what I've done here? Consider a small donation to my beer fund. ;-) Ok, now that you've thought about it, go ahead and [DOWNLOAD Beta5]
 
Still have a few to try....but I keep going back to Continuum with Bedwa's GB kernel.

Never have I had battery life like this! It is awesome. Screen off I lose MAYBE 1% per hour.

Screen on....amazing
