There's only one way to install cm7, read the instructions over and over again.
Since you're not even familiar with odin i suggest you do some more reading/searching before you mess up your phone trying to install cm7.

Dl link to correct odin used in flash of cm7

No, its the only way since this isn't you're typical rom.

Is there more rom's on the captivate using Odin than just flashing

How do you flash these leaks, im going to use odin for it but just a little direction would be highly appreciated. I've been flashing and rooting samsungs but have never tried a leak. Also, am I able to flash gummy charge back over this if needed and the radio still remain?

Gonna kang the radio out of this and run GC2.0 FE until it gets remixed.

Thanks a lot. I understand how to flash the leak basically like a rom via odin. But im still not understanding modems? The link posted here for the ep1w is rom and radio combo?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Maybe I do understand, flash the leak and boot it then flash the modem correct? I don't care for ext4 or all that I just want the latest gingerbread and radio. Modem =radio? When I flash the modem thru odin do I put it in the pit or pda?

[Q] Need CWM for sgs4g 2.3.6 official.

Has anybody got a version of CWM that will work on the sgs4g? I accidentally flashed the galaxy s CWM from rom manager before finding this forum. Nothing has changed on the phone, except if i boot into CWM recovery i always get verification errors.
Also, are there any ROMs for the sgs4g that is running 2.3.6?
Thanks to anybody who can help.
Get rid of ROM Manager. I've read it doesn't work well on this phone. Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380331 for a 2.3.6 ROM with the latest CWM/root/voodoo lagfix.

This may just be a noob question and I hope I'm posting in the right place. I'm running 2.3.6 as well and want to flash Valhalla Final onto my device. The instructions say you must have pre-installed kernel with clockwork recovery. Do I need to use Heimdall and load a kernel with clockwork recovery or is there another way to get the CWM? I am still learning the basics of all this stuff. Forgive my ignorance.

Since you're already on GB (2.3.6) you can do this, if you're not rooted follow:

Save the wiki to your bookmarks. We're updating it constantly so you'll always get the most up to date info from there. Also spread the word when other users need help, point them to the proper section in the wiki .
Thanks to everyone for their insight. My sgs4g is no more now. Luckily, I learned a lot about flashing with it before it died. Including unbricking. Still haven't gotten heimdall to work. But I think I have been trying to run the regular exe instead of the front end. We'll see. Hopefully I get paid this week to cut on the internet again. Killing me here.

Rainbow recovery and flashing rom

Hey everybody, so I might be posting in the wrong section but since its a question I figured I'd post in the Q&A. So my question is since I still have froyo BL and on CM9 can I still flash another rom even though my recovery has the rainbow effect? In recovery the top 1/3 is rainbow but the rest I can read good. I want to flash revolution rom. And I would Odin or heimdall back to stock and go from there but I have no PC. So yeah would it be safe to wipe all and flash revolution even though I'm on a froyo BL, blue CWM and on CM9?

Yeah, you have had to wait a really long time for an answer. I figured folks were just waiting for you to check out the other threads with the exact same question.
Just messing with you, and you'd really be fine to flash the rom that you want to flash. Your best bet would be to get set up right, though. To get rid of the rainbows, it's not too hard to get Gingerbread bootloaders. Follow the instructions in this post to a "t", including the part in the FAQ about how to get red CWM, and you'll have everything you need for a rainbow free rom flashing experience. It will get you set up on stock Gingerbread with custom recovery. Then you can flash any of the other available roms.:

2 Download radio of your choice, or don't (radio for above rom https://mega.co.nz/#!FchjUArZ!QPtwwGvt0KPNE9LFkj9lhTObUSZ1MtI-vKeQxdiefU8 ) Flash radio in CWM.
3 Wipe DATA/SYSTEM/DALVIK in CWM.
4 Flash rom then radio from old recovery / new recovery (<--link).
5 Done.
PS. If you use google backup (in settings/accounts) all your phone numbers and most other settings will remain. There are other ways but i don't care about them. ds.
Finally i would like to join the crowd and say READ THE STICKIES. They exist so that you won't have to waste your own time making threads like this.
Good luck :good:
OP, I think you should stay on ics until you can get kies to work. Your going to end up losing everything on your phone at best and bricking it at worst.

Flashing from ics back to gingerbread in cwm

I am trying to revert from an ics rom to a gingerbread rom via cwm. Is there anything special I have to do?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Assuming your cwm is up to date just wipe cache and system then flash. But ALWAYS remember to make a backup first.
On a side note, ever use twrp?

Ummm, its a little more complicated than Flashing.Lol
You are reverting system files and such. Grab you a STOCK image from Sammobile than flash in Odin following the steps outlined in konanes thread in the dev section. Don't ever flash backwards between versions of android in cwm, you'll soft brick your phone. Bad advice ^^^^dude
