Donate time!
Hello, I am very excited to open this post. If you donate, you can help this fellow get an infuse. He has successfully ported ICS to the defy, with just an old kernel! The defy was an abandoned phone like us, deeming to never get an update. It was locked up in every way possible, with bootloaders and little sources available. Thanks to his work, the defy has gotten ICS. Now, if your so kind and want ICS on this phone badly, donate to him: (stopping donations at moment, figuring deal) . He is interested in this phone, so do not worry if you donate. If you can, please post how much money you donated down below. I can then maybe keep the money made updated. This is legit, the dev is Quarx. Look him up on the defy forums, he is there and working hard.
GOAL: $100 DOLLARS! SO FAR 140+. May reach a deal soon.
Update: Quarx needs donations only right now, jt will get bedwas phone, and the other dev (sorry forgot name) is only depending on another guy, (read on page 8/9 for names) are working together, they will contact me if they need the help.
Update 2: Jt has made a working kernel. On page 15 is the video of it working on the infuse. Post #143 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1551711&page=15
Update 3: Page 28 is build you can flash, No Bugs here! if you have bugs or questions, go here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1593187


Update again: go here for the builds ( posting soon, sorry the browser will not let me paste.

If I were coninved in any way that is would benefit me, I might donate. But really, in everyday use, what will it do for me that a custom gb rom won't?

    preview

    Here's a preview build now that my source tree is mostly sorted out: http://www.mediafire.com/?1nhagihfoqqpkf3

    To flash, you must first flash this recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/?2000k5y512spft4

    Then boot into recovery, wipe data/cache, go to mounts and storage and format system, then flash the rom. Gapps are here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip . You'll probably have to mount system manually under mounts and storage before flashing gapps.

    I've only tested this using gingerbread bootloaders, no idea if it works using froyo bootloaders. If you don't want to deal with the caveats of gb bootloaders, then well, fix it yourself.

    what works:
    radio (calls/sms/data)
    touchscreen
    audio
    wifi
    sensors
    hw acceleration
    software and hardware video decoding
    data usage monitor (for wifi at least)

    what doesn't work:
    camera/camcorder
    bluetooth

    anything else is either broken or completely untested.

    Fixed since preview build:

    external sdcard mounting
    USB mass storage (both internal and external)
    Camera and camcorder (front and rear cameras)

    on to bluetooth and gps...then a real release :D

    The four devices I built aosp ics for... Not ports... Prove you wrong.. Period... I was building roms since the original.... But there's always some dew who thinks they know it all.... But this I know about.... I have a build for this device.. No kernel because our kernel is so hard to develop for....and when you port ics... What do u use as proprietary files? That's right... Gingerbread files... This is like talking to a wall... You have fun porting...

    lol again. build date on my current kernel is March 11. I built it before I had the device in hand ;) and yes, I had fun porting, thanks :)

    Nonsense....have you built it... do you even understand what your saying??? I HAVE built it... all that technical mumbo means 0... bottom line...I've done it...3 now 4 other devs have also done it...

    thrice the lols...yes, I have built it :) here's a video for all the kiddies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO2EE9ct-Wc&feature=youtube_gdata_player (crappy quality, but you get the gist ;))

    Thanks for all who are paving the way.

    You should have a flashable zip.
