Since the OP didn't provide a link I went and found a direct one so you won't have to look for links. But if you want to access Darky's dev homepage/forum follow the link provided by Master and on the lower left hand column there is a link to his web page.

Yeah saw that too. Went in their IRC and asked but the ppl who were on told me it would only work with I9000 and the Captivate-i897.
I'm in the process of getting in touch with Darky to see which is true haha. If it does indeed support everything now, there will be a special installation method for Vibrants.
Go ahead and flash it...your problem not mine ;-),I flashed it and paid the price,it will not run on U.S. models....it will wipe your phone of everything,so be sure to back up everything on your pc as I did luckily.
It wont damage your phone or anything but make sure your near your comp unlike when I flashed it lol becuz it will wipe all....I had 3 other roms to flash back to on my phone but like I said,it litteraly wiped everything
Btw,Darkly is a he lol,that's his gf's picture

Yes I just attempted this 2 weeks ago,and no I wont be trying this again,but I will say this...if you want a thurough wipe,this will do it lol.
It litterally will wipe everything,all folders and all info. Im not trying to be against his rom cuz I sure would like to run it,but it was not compatible to my sgh-t959 by any means.

hmm i pm'd him and he said to get the darky app
or something like that?
I was on their IRC this past day getting HOW to install his ROM.
Yes, it WILL work on a Vibrant but it will have a major BUG. The bug is the same as jellette/Heathen's Ragnarok 2.2.1 port that he tried a month ago. The phone will restart when it reaches a certain network strength value. I'm talking to jellete now to see if there is a fix for that but I don't think so as of RIGHT now.
If you wanna flash it though:
You need two things before you flash.
ENSURE you are on a 2.2 Froyo ROM (or 2.2.1 if you can get one). You will need the modem and kernel from the current ROM. Ensure the Kernel is i9000 based. This means you will need to use Morfic's DoW 1.4 or Ttabbal's Dragon 3.6.
Get the Darky's ROM App configurator from the market.
Get the Darky's 9.3 beta 1 ROM and copy it to your phone.
Using the app, uncheck flash kernel and modem. You do NOT want the flash to flash the i9000 kernel and modem that comes with the rom. You want your old ones.
Reboot into clockwork, flash the modified Darky ROM that DOES NOT include a kernel and modem.
Reboot.
NOTE: The Rom WILL WIPE your phone. You've been warned. Back up EVERYTHING and anything that may be of value to you and have ODIN ready in case anything goes wrong.
it seems too complicated, i'm a fan of darkyy's roms because a friend of mine has a I9000, and he had it running, and it was amazing, and no rom on Vibrant can compare to it. YET. The Devs here for the Vibrant are awesome, but darkyy's got more experience i guess, but his roms are just... faster, better looking for some reason.
I just PM'd Darkyy, and will reply on this thread if any response is made.
I suggested to him that he can chat with our Vibrant Devs as well and try to make it compatible with our device.
GOT A REPLY!!!!!!!!
Hi there
I need to make this more userfriendly - yes, it works with any device (it's a bit basic for now)
For now, you guys just need to select "Skip Kernel" and "No-Modem" in the Darky App and then flash - btw, since v9.3 Beta 1, the automatical Wipe isn't there anymore
Will update the ROM soon
I'm off for 3 days now

There are really only two permanent fixes if you want 2.2.1.
1. EDTs 2.2.1 which is a hybrid at this point, incorporating the Vibrants stability with the 2.2.1 speed.
2. TWs Frost which is pure 2.2.1.
Neither of these are based on I9000 though, both are based on the V4g.

Be careful - some of the ICS installs have a PIT file and are flashed in Odin.
DO NOT FLASH THESE.
As of today, the ONLY reason to EVER flash the I777 using a PIT file is to recover from a situation where you screwed it up by flashing something with a PIT file.
Nothing good can come out of flashing using a PIT file on the I777 at this point, nothing! So DO NOT FLASH anything that includes one!
Things might change when we get official ICS, but right now - DON'T DO IT.
I flashed the first i9100 leak using odin on my i777, and it workt just fine, only played with it for like 5min since ril is busted =/, tho he can flash i9100 cm9 just fine(after taking out the ro.productdevice=i9100 string out of the updater-script) and play with ics a bit, tho like we all know no mic on calls/no back/search keys(tho it can be fixed with gb /usr and a kernel edit) =/

I think, once we start getting ICS for the i777, the device will have to be repartitioned. In HC (and ICS), /data and /sdcard (/mnt/sdcard) are no longer seperate partitions. If I understand ODIN properly (and I don't), that would imply a PIT file, correct?

Hellraiser. Same as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335377 but for ICS. Same installation instructions, except this is for ICS Touchwiz firmwares instead of Gingerbread.
Known issues:
May break root on some firmwares. Flash ChainsDD's Superuser or Chainfire's SuperSU CWM packages in CWM to fix. To find them, Google it. Will add links later. tired now...
Doesn't change build.prop to represent I777, will cause script assert problems with CM9. I'll fix this later in the week after I've caught up on sleep.
Doesn't change wifi region codes (see Sh1tROM tutorial) for 5 GHz wifi support yet.
Sometimes region settings don't take hold on the first boot, and you need to reboot to see ringtones and proper keyboard
Tested with Foxhound someversionican't remember... Others have used other I9100 ICS firmwares.
Won't work with anything based on I9100 leaks such as XXLPJ - I believe Resurrection was in this category last week.
Having trouble with uploading large files, so:
Take the files at https://github.com/Entropy512/hellraiser_i777/tree/ics, put em' in a ZIP, and flash. I'll attach a ZIP later. I need to contact the XDA admins about some upload issues.

XXLP7 is ancient, it will not work on XXLP7. It will not work on any XX build below LPQ.
If you typoed that and meant XWLP7, it should work.
You need to be VERY careful to be accurate about region codes when talking about I9100 ICS, since they replaced the month code with "P" and how far along the build code is depends on the region. XX is way up there (past Q) and Q is the first one that could be Hellraised, XW is only at 7 and all known XW region builds should be fine.

Hellraised Crysis rom worked fine for me.
How are you supposed to use this...I have this as .zip and F1's Galaxy Nexus stock ROM for Galaxy S II on my AT&T Galaxy S II. When I install F1's Galaxy Nexus stock ROM, it ends because it recognizes my device isn't an OG Galaxy S II.
Am I supposed to merge the Hellraiser files with the ROM files and zip them up?
If you download and flash a stock ROM such as XWLP7 and hellraise, will HDMI work? Read on previous forum that HDMI out does not work on custom ROMs.
Since this is a stock ROM from Sammi this should work. Any experience with this?

You need to remove the script asserts from the updater-script of whatever you're trying to flash. That's probably the first firmware other than CM9 I've heard of that did any script assert checking.

HDMI should work - HDMI works fine on custom firmwares, it just doesn't work right now with AOSP-based firmwares.

I've got the day off and nothings really going on so I'm looking to root my SGS III. Still in the preparation phase but I'm basically looking to find the quickest, easiest way to obtain root.
What I've come across is the tool kit and CF-Root methods of doing this. Basically what's the difference between these? I'm also reading about flash counter? And triangle away gets rid of it? I'm not too sure on that really..
Ideally I think I'd prefer using Odin but I cant seem to extract the CF-Root file to get the .Tar PDA file. This is why I've stopped and decided to post before proceeding to **** it all up, as I once did with my SGS...
Any help would be appreciated thanks all
..... Should also say I'm running stock with the latest OTA update if that's any worth

Can't really comment on "best"
But I've had good experience with AHD, WanamLite (2.0) and Omega. All with stock kernels. But Siyaah 1.4 is a good kernel to start with if you want a custom kernel.
Currently my daily driver is Faryaab's AOSP JB Build 3. Loving it!
Sorry, poorly phrased.. should have said, what rom do you use and why?
I confess at the moment I have gone back to a stock de-odexed Rom just to see what Samsung is like after 2 years of being on aosp/cm9 roms, just running siyah kernel over it and removed a bit of bloat.....quite enjoying it

Bought a used i777 with Shostock2 on it. I like Shostock2 but think I want to go back to Gingerbread, which is what I had on my old phone. I'm assuming I will have to odin back to stock but would love to avoid it if I can.
If anyone can tell me how to go from ICS to Gingerbread or point me to a tutorial I'd very much appreciate it.
Thanks!
PS: Yes I did a search. Found threads on this--but not for the i777.

I didn't know it was obvious because with my Galaxy S, I remember reading that flashing some roms over others could potentially brick your phone and that you had to go about it in a certain way. I'm happy to know that isn't the case here.

You will be fine in every case. It is necessary to perform a wipe data/factory reset in recovery before flashing a new base.
