Installing cwm - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

I'm wanting to install cwm, but Im running KG4 2.3.4 stock rooted. I found ways but have to be running froyo. Is there a way to install it while running gb? If not which is the best method of going back to froyo to install it. Thanks in advanced. I'm usually not one to ask for help, but this is my first Samsung. I have/had alot of htc phones and that's what I'm used to. If some1 wouldn't mind helping I've been to the Bible page. Just need to be pointed in the right direction now. Thanks again.
Edit. Just seen there was a sticky tab in the q&a thread... So now my question is sense I already have that rom installed can I just start at the step of installing the kernel? Or should I do it all over?

When in doubt, do it over. You should just be able to install a kernel like Bali however, that has CWM built in.

Since you already have Gbread installed you just need to install a kernel with CWM.

Kg4 voodoo kernel is the only gingerbread compatible kernel with cwm voodoo built in.

I think I actually suggested that in my first post. Bali kernel carries the built in CWM.

NOTHING will appear to have changed when rooting a phone. The only difference is you will notice a "super user" icon appear on the screen. Has a little Android Head and Cross-bones. What exactly are you expecting it to do or look like?
The head and crossbones but it doesn't show up

It's just stuck saying rooting device please wait. I swear it did it in less than a minute last night and know it just hangs there

^^^^^^ Turn off the phone...take out the battery, reinsert battery and turn the phone back on and then try to root.
Well I deleted the .apk and now it won't download it oh well...thanks for the help all

The rom has nothing to do with your youtube app.
Your prolly the first one to report this.
And obviously, you can download the latest version from android market.
What a waste, virtuous is a perfectly working rom, but if you wanna take out all the joy and return to stock then go ahead.

Someone in the General Forum on the 2.3.4 tmobile thread says that works, again u must be completely stock no root no custom recovery. (s-off) is ok.
I'm reverting my phone back to stock right now and going to do it.
Please if somebody flashed this test this Game and report back if it is working for you without problems: CORDY
Thank you in advance!
Download the package, unzip, look for firmware update. Unzip that, delete boot.img and hboot, and recovery. Zip it back up rename to pg58img and flash for all the firmware update.

To learn how to flash a rom you first need to learn to search. Look at the sticky in the Inspire 4G General section. It will teach you how to flash a Rom.

Then even after you get help doing it, I would suggest you read up and try and uderstand what you are doing. You very well could end up having a brick that you can't do anything with except look at.

I was actually really impressed with MIUI. I thought I was going to hate it because of the iphoneish look to the UI so I never bothered to try it but once I did it impressed me & I got the best benchmarks & speed tests out of it than any other rom. But I love my VU & sense :')
