An Infamous Development​

Rules:

1. This is a hobby for me and I may not be updating everyday, I have a family and a day job.
2. I will try to answer any questions you may have, but somtimes I just dont have the time.
3. This rom will be customized to my liking, but i am willing to take suggestions.
4. All roms are tested before uploading aswell I download and test again to make sure it boots properly.
5. No flaming in this thread and I exspect everyone to help each other. If you do not have anything productive to say please do not post.
6. This rom is provided free of charge, all I would like is a thanks in return, Please do not criticize the rom, there are plenty of other roms to choose from.
7. Your warrenty is now VOID, I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device as a result of installing this rom.

If accept these rules your are welcome to download my rom.

How to Install:

AT&T users will need to flash @ktoonsez Kernel before rebooting!
Big thanks to him! Thread link

1. Back your rom up incase anything goes wrong, I use TWRP. Not tested with CWM but should work.
2. Coming from another rom, full wipe no questions ask. Updating to newer version, you can wipe the system unless otherwise specified.
3. Flash the Rom
4. Install @ktoonsez awesome kernel - TELUS users can skip this part
5. Wipe cache/ dalvik cache
6. Do not fix permissions whenit ask
7. After it boots to setup, let sit for about 10 minutes
8. Reboot and enjoy
9. Go to Playstore and purchase 3Minit settings then go to his thread 3minit and thanks him along with post #2, #3, #4

You have any issues with the rom please do a full wipe before you asked questions, rom is fully tested before and after it is uploaded so good chance it is user error.
I just got this device about two weeks ago and have big plans for this rom with the help of Infamous Development and any other developer that is willing to help each other out.

Hmmmm. Think I am doing something wrong

moved the files over and loaded it. It rebooted and showed my samsung static screen, then went black with no sign of life. Tried it with and without the dalvik cache wipe, both got same results. I am guessing no one else had this issue, if they did please tell me how you got this awesome ROM loaded and working.



Found out the MD5 signature failed verification. So it seems to be a bad download.

Hey Man, Did you get the rom to boot?. I downloaded it myself and it booted up fine. Let me know if you have any issues.

The only thing I really needed that was missing was the email program for regular and exchange so I threw a zip together to add it. I like the calendar app too but will make a zip for it later. So for anyone needing the regular samsung email with exchange support ill put a zip on my drop box :)

Just flash in your recovery of choice.

The calender app should be included, I just removed the widget because it only works with the stock launcher which I also removed.

It's still a no go

Hey Man, Did you get the rom to boot?. I downloaded it myself and it booted up fine. Let me know if you have any issues.

downloaded on 4 different machines and they all fail MD5. I loaded them anyway and I still get a black screen right after the first samsung logo. I have formatted everything except my external memory and somehow it still does not like me. :(

not sure what to do next. I have been flashing ROM's since getting my Infuse 3 phones ago so I am confused as to what I did to not make it work

Have you tried to download off a different mirror?, seems like your getting bad downloads. I know it boots.

not meant to be.

downloaded again from 2 diff mirrors and tried 3 times to load it.

wiped factory reset
loaded ROM
loaded KT-SGS4-AOSP-JB-ATT-07-15-2013.zip
wiped dalvik/cache
rebooted

it never asked for permissions to be fixed or modified, after boot it still stays black after first static samsung logo. I am so trying to get this thing loaded.. I wanna play with it.. =(
however it told me it was not rooted and asked if I wanted to load SuperUser. I did that and it hung at logo on the last load

Wrong Kernel, try his TW kernel. You should have your device and carrier in your signature, it helps to troubleshoot problem.

Thank you I will try that. I was assuming it was ASOP since it was mentioned in your posts. I appreciate your help on this.
