How Do we install the Vibrant4 Rom - Captivate General

I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743769 and i was wondering how could we install it on our phones?

bound for general.

Possibly, they only problem is it relies on the stock vibrant rom to work. It could be possible to do the same thing as installing the i9000/samset roms. Basically flash the vibrant rom then the cappy kernel then load up that custom rom. I doubt its that easy tho. That rom doesn't seem optimized or anything tho, it just has a ton of preloaded stuff on it so it doesn't seem worth the trouble IMO.

Designgears is doing some sweet stuff for Cappy development, but his attitude is also the reason why we don't get a lot of the even sweeter I9000 stuff. He doesn't own a Vibrant or I9000 so they can just GTFO if they want anything for their version, which is what a lot of the I9000 say to us basically.

Where are all the ROM devs?

I see a couple people but where are all the roms? google even released 2.3.4 source but I haven't seen the explosion of developement for this phone yet. despite a few issues this phone is one badass phone. after i got one without screen bleed and really sunk into it this phone is better that any android i've ever used and has features the Samsung Galaxy S 2 won't have such as nvidia tegra 2 which in my opinion is a much more solid piece of hardware and a much more well known company than the one on the SGS 2. and Smartshare, Ultra dolby digital mobile!!! this phone is the ****! plus i heard bionix was coming to this phone via team whiskey! I see faux released a rom and he doesn't even have the phone! we have a good start but....
Where are the devs!!!??? please we need you people. you guys make phones these expensive things worth purchasing for the insane amounts of money they cost. oh mighty development lords, please develope!
its called patience.
to quote the Princess Bride "I hate waiting..." lol i have patience it just doesn't seem like many have signed on yet like with the vibrant i've had for 10 months.
You also have to remember that out dev section is split between the o2x and g2x. These two forums should be combined.

Totally disagree, maybe for someone with some flashing experience yes, but for noobs it would be a total mess, flashing o2x roms on g2x phones... not to mention wrong kernels, maybe even radios...not a nice thought..

+1 would be a disaster.
I agree development is slower than I'd expected..
I was gonna make a ROM, but the stock ROM with Titanium Backup is best for me. If you build AOSP you lose the awesome Camera app that LG wrote and you lose all the cool apps that come with the G2x.
For me I just uninstall the apppack app and freeze the wifi calling app and I'm good to go.
I tried the GB build and it had GPS issues and didn't have the nice camera app.
So I'm happy with the stock setup with a few tweaks.

The Vibrant has been out for 10 months. The G2x has been out for barely 2.
Development will come.. It takes some time though. Not every Android dev has the cash to buy a new phone every time one comes out.

Closer to 3 weeks. It's amazing how some people think it is easy to develop a rom.
It would help if anyone could build a kernel from the lg source that didn't break wifi and bt. All attempts have failed.....
I actually thought the opposite, I thought development is going great!
I don't remember really seeing any major development for the Vibrant until after 2 Months!
And we already have a. 2.3.3 and a 2.3.4 Rom out!
Just saying!

i agree. guess i feel spoiled from all the vibrant support. i figured this phone would explode fast in dev. since we had root so fast and dual core, plus being a google phone. hopefully t-mobile gets off their ass and releases the official gingerbread like they promised before i purchased my phone (which was the ONLY reason i even was ok with purchasing an android 2.2 again). maybe that'll fix the problem ttabbal was talking about with the kernels.

Odds of Cyangen Rom?

Guys what are the odds of stock android rom hacked on to the Sammy Charge???
Wondering what others are thinking?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
The odds are better than the odds that you took time to read the Development board where there are 2 ROMs available
and most likely a 3rd one soon by the dev that did the Liberty ROM the Tesla ROM.....
But if all you care about is this CM ROM; go get something else.
I'm sure there will be one eventually, but if you want it within the next month, I'd look elsewhere, as there are no guarantees as to when it will come or how functional it will be.
Lol @ Shotgunsams great response.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA Premium App
@shotgunsam...... Ummmm roms available. There all spruced up TouchWiz tweaks.
I am meaning a true Rom not built ontop of touchwiz.
Either i was looking for hope of one. Since the fascinate never got one.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Uh, did you read the descriptions of the ROMs? DroidXCon gives you LauncherPro, other launchers soon to come, and imnuts has a streamlined ROM with the default AOSP launcher. Both completely remove TW launcher, according to the descriptions.
I too would love to see CM7 for this device. But the fact is, there are a few great ROM's available already, which is incredible considering the phone has only been out for two weeks! I really appreciate the hard work of the devs, and can't wait to see what's available in the coming weeks.
I got the DI when it first came out. First it was when will it get root. Root was a ***** becasue it was so random it worked with some sd cards and some it did not. There were methods of clicking your sd card in and out which actually worked for me. Not a day latter everyone was *****ing about roms. When will we get this or that rom. Look at almost 1 year later and there are crazy amount of roms. It takes time be patient and look forward to what is coming. Crap I am typing this and I don't even get my charge till tuesday. I hate touchwiz I will root,rom,replace launcher with one of my choosing. If I hate something will just get another phone 6 8 months down the road but really not concerned about it at this point. I think in time it will be like every other phone tons of awesome roms from great developers. Liberty was one of if not the best roms for the droidx which I own. Just knowing they same people that worked on that rom is doing stuff for charge has me stoked.
Guys im not knockin the devs. But everything is built off TOUCHWIZ just cause you get rid of the launcher its still touchwiz under the hood.
The fascinate never had a locked bootloader either and noone ever got a stock android rom working. So i was just asking if it would be possible here. Anyways no biggie....

No way of saying will it get cwm7 or not. I will say the Droid x has a locked boot loader but Liberty rom was amazing. They put a ton of details and tweeks so that you could change things they way you want. As much as you could anyways with a locked boot loader. The developers of that rom did a great job with what they had to work with. Now if they are dev for this phone and it is fully unlocked. Wow no dobut will they put out a awesome rom for it. Now I have every intention to installing the best roms out for this phone when I get it tuesday. Developers deserve not only our thanks but donations as well. Thank you guys that put in all the hard work making our phones run crazy cool.
Unlike other skins tw is small and really is easy to remove. I've deleted alot and it still is functioning. Sense roms=200MB touchwiz=100MB and idk about blur

Do you know why the fascinate still doesn't have a fully functional cm7? Samsung code. And lack of true full source... This too is a samsung device...

Well Samsung released the kernel source pretty much immediately didn't they? Also didn't Samsung say they were going to be better about releasing that kind of stuff, and also keeping bootloaders more open? So this could be a real possibility. Although if you know what your removing, I would assume like HTC Sense, you can pretty much take a TW based rom and completely remove TW and have it work fine.

You do know that the Fascinate is knocking on the door to get full CM7 support don't you? Honestly, if you didn't like the Fascinate, you won't like the Charge, and based on your posts here, I don't think you ever like any android phone as they all seem to have one problem or another.

The reason the download is so big is that Samsung didn't clean out the kernel source tree after building, and tar'd up the source files as well as the built binaries (and all the other generated files). After you download, do "make distclean" and you'll save yourself some space and get rid of the useless files.

Apparently a lot of people are having trouble understanding the question. lol
I been wondering the same thing though. I have a good feeling about CM getting on bored eventually, it's what I'm looking foreward to the most with this phone. I miss having my notification bar on the bottom of my phone like I did with my D'Inc... lol
The only reason I say I "think" that it has a good chance getting CM support is because it seems, besides the Fascinate, they have been doing a great job cracking down on Samsung phones lately in the past few months. Besides the more phone supported by them, the better and the more recongnition they get. Until then ADW Ex is working fine for me.
Shout out to CM for all the awesome hard work.

Coming from the original Incredible (CDMA) Rooting and ROMing was a breeze and also received CM support pretty quickly. If anything, I would think that the 4G radio would be the hardest work around. You never know though.

Should I Trade for a SGS4G?

You guys think development will ever rise up for this phone? I'm thinking of trading my myTouch 4G for this thing because I love AMOLED and the hardware quality of the SGS series. But with the development of the MT4G booming I'm not sure if I should pull the trigger.
Anyone regretting getting the SGS4G as supposed to a Vibrant with it's booming development?
Its coming up fast. New Rom's and themes are popping up almost daily now. Choices of modems, kernels, tweaks, etc....
Imo, grab it up! Its gonna be a fun ride and you'll have the chance to be in the front seat
This phone is lightning fast, download speeds are out of this world, and the development, yet still young, is going to take off like a rocket....and I think soon.

Yeah that's what I'm hoping man. Just that I've been so used to GB these past couple months I'm a bit weary to go back to 2.2, hopefully ext4 kernels will come to this phone soon so that GB ROM's will work on this phone. I'm one of the 10 people in this world that actually like TWiz, lol. So I hope GB TWiz can come soon.
I still think this is a great phone and yeah the screen is pure awesome. As long as you know what you are getting in to, and you want the features the sgs4g offers you should go for it. This is a pretty great community starting up around here and lots of mods and things already available. We will have gb eventually (might be a while but hey) and if its twiz you like--thanks to Whitehawkx--we even have a port of twiz 4.0 from the galaxy s2 available!

the SGS4G supports adobe flash; it doesn't have a physical flash for the camera. while the "night mode" really does do an excellent job, there have been times i've wished for an actual flash.
my GPS works near-flawlessly. personally, i feel the hardware is so superior to the mT4G that the (current) fewer ROM options is a worthy price. super AMOLED is every bit as spectacular as advertised.

Has the 1GB of internal memory ever affected you? I'm worried about that because I have about 70 apps installed and still have about 500mb's free on my MT4G, so I don't wanna have to go back to the G1 days where I have to worry about apps2SD. I know it's a problem with stock GS4G ROM's. But do the rooted ROM's create more internal memory?

i haven't run into any issues. froyo allows the moving of apps to the SD. some apps themselves don't support it, but not enough that i've come close to running into the limit. i have around thirty apps installed, though... so your methods may vary.

I'm making the same jump from a mytouch 4g to this simply because my LED flash burned out and this is my 3rd replacement so I'm just ditching it I want something different. At least with this phone I won't have to worry about the flash burning simply because... there is no flash
But in all honesty I hope that this phone can keep up with the speed of my mytouch 4g. I'm going to miss gingerbread but hopefully this phone will get it soon! The screen looks amazing on youtube, I might walk into tmobile and see how I like this phone. Hopefully it doesn't disappoint.
If speed and responsiveness are your main concerns let me tell you...this phone flys. And lots of tweaks to make it even snappier. Of all the things you might worry about on the sgs4g--speed is not one of those things lol.

Less than a month and we have 11 ROMs total, some customized and others stock.

I noticed a few of the devs from the inspire over on this forum. Pirateghost is an example. He had a very nice rom in the inspire forum. I'm not worried about it at all. Go skyrocket. I think people aren't willing to wait for it. They open the forum and don't see cm7 or miui and they haul ass. This device WILL get ICS. And its an awesome phone with awesome hardware, I haven had one single problem yet.

Completely agree, I've donated to a couple devs already myself and I'm always ready to donate to more.
I believe there is a lack of devs because everyone jumped on the i777 without knowing that the I727 was coming. However I do believe the i777 is a better overall phone.
Not hating, just speaking my mind.

Call att and ask them because unless theres a leak probobly not.going to happen until the ota. You dont want a hacked up unfunctional rom anyway
For people who have tried different roms, what is currently the best one out there in terms of features and battery life?

Thanks to all Cappy Devs!

Hello. Well it has been a great year with the Cappy, but I have moved on to the SGS 2, mostly due to Rogers very poor cell service in my area so when I had the chance to jump to Bell and the SGS 2 I had to. I would just like to sincerely thank all the devs on the Captivate forums for making my time with the Cappy very awesome. I have learned so much in the past year from all the hard work by all the devs on XDA. If Rogers cell service had been better in my area I definitely could have stayed with the Cappy easily for another year due to all your hard work.
I would like to specifically thank:
Watsa: for his Apex ROM, it was my daily driver.
Dlev7: his ROMs were the first I flashed and brought me to Gingerbread.
TRusselo: representing the Canadian flavour on XDA! Thanks for his stock ROM so I could flash my phone to get ready to sell.
LOSTLOGIC89: his KK4 ROM was the next I was going to flash until I decided to get the SGS2 and how he managed to constantly cook/update ROMs without a phone was crazy. Also, he stuck with the Cappy even when other Devs moved to the SGS2.
existz: TalonDEV kernel helped my Cappy to flyyyyyyyy.
xtremekilla09: loved your dialers and always used one when I could.
Cezar': AT&T bootloaders allowed me to move to Gingerbread.
So special thanks to all of you!
To all the other Devs, you make the Cappy far more awesome and keep up the work, it is appreciated by all.

Kinda wish you had a ROM for the SGS2 but I know there are soooo many ROMs on the dev threads it's crazy. It's overwhelming compared to the Cappy. Any suggestions Watsa? I was looking at the Omega ROM and the Dlev ROM mostly because they have a combination of features and theme I like.
Date set for a leak? haha that's new!
Thanks again Watsa.

Personally speaking there is no need of a custom rom on gs2. We can use odexed stock with jkay mod... unless u want a theme... I am a fan of how sgs2 looks out of the box

The stock ROM is pretty good. The only thing is that it is not the most up to date version of gingerbread and I've gotten used to some features I had on my Cappy that I don't have with stock like battery mod, extended power menu, more controls in the notification, and themes. Can jkay mod supply these things?

There are no AT&T bootloaders. Bootloaders are universal

That I did not know. Thanks! Cezar' made it easy to change the bootloaders on my phone tho!
I am running Team Hacksung's ICS Build 9 and since I can't thank them there yet - due to not having enough posts - I will do it here. Thanks to Team Hacksung and the entire community for all their help. My cappy never looked so good.

Totally agree - much gratitude for all the devs who have had a hand in developing ROMs for the SGS Captivate! So nice to not have to rely on Rogers for updates...
