Hi, that's basically my problem. just have this old Galaxy Showcase sitting around and want to do something with it... but I can not find any information on here... and the Fascinate is pretty close to the showcase. please help me
There are no showcase threads here. There are some on RootzWiki, but we're more active than them.
Way more active. RootzWiki is basically tumbleweeds for us
Showcase and Fascinate are pretty much the same phones but different apns. I have a showcase and flash fascinate roms all the time. Just get rom konverter from rootzwiki and convert the rom to showcase.

Hey guys just wondering if you can use Vibrant roms, or any other galaxy S roms on other devices specifically the Epic 4g.. Thanks
Possibly no. When Eugene made his ROMs, he makes a semi-revision of his ROM to make it compatiable. Hence Hybrid has three different versions to his ROM: Captivate, Vibrant, I9000. Stick to the Epic 4G forum for development, the tweaks here may work and may not work. So just be careful.
I don't really follow Epic 4G development, but is there at least Clockwork Recovery for it? I couldn't find anything about that. That is the next step that Epic 4G needs, you guys already have Root access.
I just have a quick question. I was just checking out the Galaxy S I9000 forums and they have a lot of ROMs/kernels/Themes/MODs over there and it looks like there are some pretty stable 2.3 ROMs in those development forums. I guess my question is: Do the ROMs/kernels/MODs/Themes from the Galaxy S I9000 development forums work for the Samsung Fascinate?
I'm just confused because I figured any ROM/kernel/MOD/theme that would work for the Fascinate would be posted in the Fascinate's development forum. Thanks.

you cannot flash anything from another sgs phone (save the showcase/mesmerize with some modifications) on the fascinate
some mods have been ported, but the i9000/captivate/telus fascinate/vibrant are all gsm phones...the radio stuff is very very different
even the epic 4g which is cdma/wimax has done very little for us
samsung treats each phone like an island when developing software for it...we are on our own
Sorry but anything not specifically listed as compatible for the fascinate will at least not work and at worst soft-brick your phone. The majority of galaxy s phones are gsm, unlike the fascinate which is cdma. That difference in radio type requires a difference in software so their stuff won't fly on our hardware.

Okay I understand. Thanks for the quick responses.
ok so the galaxy player has been out for a while now...so my question is when and if anyone at all is creating any custom ROMS for the device? i just think its weird that within a few days there's was stuff out for the galaxy nexus. why cant it be the same for the galaxy player?
I guess you have not seen STeVEs rom .
Make sure you have the right version and country device before installing.
May want to look through the forum first.
A quick look through http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1423 and I see a few Roms for the different galaxy players.
You should not compare the development of these to the Galaxy Nexus. The Galaxy Nexus probably has a larger user group so it probably has more developers working on it. This may be do to the fact that it is a phone so it appeals to more people and the fact that the galaxy nexus was advertised more than the galaxy player so they were able to get more people to buy them.
If you don't think there enough ROMs for the Galaxy Player, you can always start developing one yourself, The android source code is available to you.
if your like me and want a GOOD, reliable rom, then wait. because steves rom is still in its early steps. and has caused many problems for many people. including me.
so just wait for a cyanogenmod or something.
Im trying out the newly released version of Eryigit rom of eng_matt for the internation SGP. touchwiz 4.5 looks great and lots of nice tweaks
I have gone through the forums and checked if not I would not be posting this question. I seen Steve's rom and its just not for me. I my self have the SGP5 some of the stuff on there its for SGP4 or international version, I thought by now there would be tons of rom being that the player has been out for a while.
edit: and while there are some stuff out there for SGP5 its not full roms, that's what I think.

Hey all. I searched for an answer to this question, but haven't really found a solid answer. And i'd like to know before doing something that might mess up my new delicious Galaxy Note.
So I just got a T-Mobile Note yesterday (T879) and I rooted it. But when I looked in the T-Mobile dev section, it was pretty sparse. Then I saw that the AT&T and International ones had so much more content.
So, are the ROMS made for the other Notes compatible with the T-Mobile Note? By compatible, I mean, 1) they won't brick my phone, 2) my radios and HSPA+ will still work, 3) generally stable.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You can use +any+ roms in this development section. Some of the roms will make your phone run super slow, but I don't know which ones.
You can use the Canadian roms, but they make the phone real laggy too.
You can use the N7005 rom. Its the internatiinal version of our model.
You can't flash any roms or apk's from the international note N7000 -- that will hard brick your phone.
I know there is an AreaRom but I would love to see a CM7. There hasn't been much talk about the Proclaim but I hear the Illusion(similar phone) has some CM7 even CM9+ ports. Does anyone know if there are ROMs available for the Proclaim other than AreaRom and stock?
