Can't wait either. Hope its great.
charging bug is the only thing keeping me from truly enjoying gingerbread
what charging bug?
havent seen anything about it??
NEVERMIND!!! search worked!!!
and i had that issue last night!
Would we need to flash new bootloaders of devs start using this ROM?
Hoping for the devs to incorporate this new release into the ROMs
it may just be the carrier bloat version of the samsung firmware that was released....
or it may have real improvements.
that will decide weather or not its used by devs...

Wow you guys are thinking too hard.
The Samsung Galaxy S, the ORIGINAL one, the i9000, has its firmware straight from Samsung. No bloat whatsoever. That is what the guy above was referring to, and that is what this firmware is for. Its SAMSUNG's version of GB, with a few added samsung apps.

Seriously? Wow. That's a specific carrier model. Much like what we have with our carrier subsidized phones. Actual i9000 phones don't have any carrier bloat because they are not subsidized. Broaden your horizons and read some more.

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.
Forget it. We no longer need it. Samsung has released source code for the two out of the three captivate models. The Rogers and armani froyo sources are released and we already have some great ROMS based on them. So I say to hell with waiting and THANKS XDA DEVS!

I was just thinking this, but secretly still being bitter about AT&T not releasing froyo. What if the same thing happens with Gingerbread? (the other 2 get it first, we end up limping behind) :/
Although if not for the XDA devs, I'd probably still be watching my phone say "media scanner running" for what seems like days.....

If you don't plan on developing your own ROM you don't need the source code.

Andromeda for one, based on Armani and Cognition is based on the rogers release.
The Rogers source just dropped very recently so I imagine future cog releases will be even better.

This was kind of my point. These ROMs haven't been built from source...I guess except for Andromeda. Hopefully the devs we have really know code and can utilize the source.
This is my captivate. There are many like it buy this one is mine.

Sorry, but Armani is not the same device as SGH-i897. If you flash through Odin the tar posted on samfirmware, it won't detect your sdcard and you'll have a mapping button problem, and screen orientation issue (Just like i9000 ROMs)
There're only two models sharing almost the same specs:
- SGH-i896 (Rogers Captivate)
- GT-i9088 (From China Unicom)

Some of us just like messing around with stuff. Just like some of us add more hp to our rides via flashing the pcm with certain calibrations, adding nitrous, or supercharger, diff camshaft, better valve springs etc. I myself like doing stuff like that. Xbox modded, controllers modded, ps2 modded list goes on. If i wanted something that worked well out the box i prob got an iphone.

i think you missed his point.
they handle the update direct for their european devices without the carrier having to test, approve, add bloat, etc. so they generally meet their deadlines.
The i9000 has had froyo for quite a while now.

thank you, yes this was my point precisely
It has been almost a week after the captivate sh*tty froyo release ( I never flashed it). I thought the MFG had 3 days to release the sorce code to be in spec with android
To be honest I "believe" it is around 30 or 60 days. But I'm leaning more toward 60 days.

I think it's 90 days actually.
Just give it time. I could be wrong but I think it took a month for the vibrants source to be released

a day or so after the official 2.2 rolled out john came back to post a thread.
I asked him in that thread when the source would be posted....can't believe he didn't respond
The epics source was posted before they actually even started the push so not sure what the delay is with the i897 source. Spite?

Since asking when the source will be released is actually important and you can not find the answer by googling it I would imagine it would fall under the category of bad questions

why does everyone consider the "ATT release" as THE FROYO RELEASE.
Europe and Canada released froyo first, ATT was late to the party.
Because it was THE FROYO RELEASE.... for AT&T.
Stupid questions get obvious answers.
I sure hope it's soon, it will be nice to see what the devs come up with once it's finally released.

Uhh...because thats when it was released for the Captivate on ATT (and your in a captivate forum)
Was it released?
I mean what does it mean to be released? When I think about all the (stated) people that bought the captivate (at&t), I have to imagine that the large majority of them are not "tech savy", and 1) don't even know there's an update 2) wouldn't really know how to go about updating even if they did.
I think, maybe, much of the bad press prompted this push out "early". Without OTA, this apparently large number of people (without techie type friends) may never update.
Having said that, I work with someone who just bought one and it came with 2.2 installed. Seemed to lag quite a bit. So does that define "released"? Does it start the clock on the source code release? Will there be a 2.2.1 or .2 or .3 release around the corner? Does anybody really know what time it is?
Thoughts?

rogers in canada has a captivate. they released open source 2.2 for it, but i don't know if there was much done with this open source by the devs. or if most of the JL1 roms are just stripped down versions of the rogers release. Maybe because ATT KB1 is a newer build or that it may contain uses for the audience chip i guess would be the only additional benefits over the rogers release?? i may be wrong.

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.
