Hey guys,
I been having quite the frustrating day that was going oh so well with my phone.
I decided yesterday to try out the OneClickRoot as I upgraded via Kies to 2.2 on my Rogers I896 Captivate. After that I did that with out any hassles I decided to do a lagfix the OneClickLag via Android market. Today I spent all day reading about kernels and found my phone can run even better. I wasnt interested in custom roms but this seemed like it would of suited me best. Tried to install Hardcore's Speedmod Kernel and what a disaster that caused me. Phone was totally unusable and I followed the instructions given. So I read I had to use Odin3 to go back to stock 2.1 rom which ended up being AT&T's. I just want to go back to my rogers 2.2 n have what I had before. Is there any way to fix this, no oneclick roots worked for me even the one specific for 2.1. So I can't flash back to the rom...
Would really like some help and guidance on this, I lost everything on it, I just want a working phone again

That should help ya out.
Thank you for your effort, but I finally figured out how to do it.
Took a lot of playing around n files to get it to work but I'm up n running.
Rooted with SuperOneClick
2.2 Rogers Stock Rom
SpeedMod Kernel with lag fixs
Screen still says AT&T on start up then goes to I9000 then Rogers Then Galaxy S but it works, so those are not much issues
Now to go about using the phone and see if any issues arise.
Good job. This is my first android phone and I've read so much my eyes feel like bleeding. Tons of good info here if ya dig around a bit and its usually not too bad if you screw the captivate, most of the fixes have been found at this point.

Upgraded my Axura ROM today to the latest version.. Two things I noticed right off. No Video player or MARKET listed in the APP drawer.
If I had the Market I could get a video player lol, so how do I get the Market re-installed on my Vibrant ?
Thanks
LOL never mind. things went from bad to worse and ended up doing Odin and back to stock eclair.
Now , do I try another custom ROM or update to official 2.2 ?
decisions , decisions.
Any recommendations ?

With Froyo seemingly right around the corner, I'm not going to risk letting trojans in on my phone for some limited Flash support.
flash lite or flash 1.0 works on eclair and will enable some videos that couldnt be seen w/o it to play...this can lead to confusion about "flash works on eclair"
a full froyo rom is needed to use flash 10.2...but id imagine given how close the last MR ota was from fascinate to continuum and that the fascinate 2.2.1 ota already went out last week....that the continuum's cant be far off
hope so
hope so it froyo comes out quick
Seems like everything with continuum is slow

I have read through previous threads and I'm having an issue with Skype saying that this version dosn't run on my Thunderbolt. I recently had it running on Stock rom. I rooted and I am now running BAMF 1.6.3 with Kernel 4.4.7 .. I had the same issue on BAMF 1.6.2.
I can download the mobile version or the full version but both of them tell me that it doesn't run and that a new version with video was coming out, yet it was working on Stock. Is there something I'm missing to get this to work?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason

Last I checked, the only Skype that works on the Thunderbolt is the leaked video one.

If he had it working prior to installing BAMF, wouldn't that not be true? Assuming the OP isn't lying, it must be a ROM issue. I myself am running BAMF remix 1.6.3. I haven't tried the market versions of skype, but the leaked one does work. Version 1.0.1.1025 I believe. I do have major problems with the video aspect of the leaked app. I can call out, but the app freezes and, well, just wigs the eff out when I try to video chat. I'm thinking this is a ROM issue with BAMF as people have reported good results with Skype video on stock so it wouldn't surprise me if your issue is also a BAMF one.
Skype got bought by Microsoft today...

I was never ever able to use the Skype app, even before I was rooted. When you downloaded it from the market and went to open it up, it would give you the message that it wasn't working for the TB yet but to check back later for an update.
The leaked one is the only one I have ever been able to run. Also, myself and many others are running the leaked version of Skype just fine on DasBAMF, it is not a ROM issue. The leaked version is the only one that will work with the TB.
Yea might just be a BAMF thing, but I'm not really sure. If I find the time tonight I might back everything up, return it to stock rom and see if it works again. I don't know if the video one worked, but I was using skype. I can't post in the dev forums under the update for BAMF yet as I don't have enough post.
Thanks for the responses.

Alright then. Well may I ask what version of BAMF you are on and what kernel? I am trying to figure out why video calling loses it's mind on my T-Bolt...

Hopefully Google Talk video will be on the Thunderbolt before too long. Won't need Skype anymore, assuming Microsoft ruins it.
Try using THIS VERSION. Just make sure in the applications settings your phone is set to allow installation of "unknown applications".(this is the working version w/video)
I will try that version and see how it goes... Thanks for all the assitance everyone.
Mine only does audio. I tried it on stock, and on The Perfect Storm 1.3 and 1.4, using wifi, 4g, and 3g. Same results - only audio and no video. I can actually see the video from the front facing camera before the other person picks up, but then the video cuts out as soon as they do.
Seems like no one else has this problem. IDK what else to try. Thoughts?

DID YOU TRY THE VERSION I POSTED PREVIOUSLY???? This version works even on the stock ROM as I have it running on a stock Thunderbolt un-rooted right now.
Thanks.... That version you posted works great. Apprciate all the help.
Anyone able to install the skype with video on the new leak?
+1 to the question in the previous post.
Unfortunately it doesn't currently support it...hopefully soon
So ive had my S3 for about a month now and in that time ive flash 4 or 5 roms. Started out with CM 10.1 was great loved it, just had problems with the lte. Then went to CM 10 stable, same thing. after that went to SOA couldnt get the feel for it. Also tried LiquidSmooth. I loved that rom but it seems really that every rom I flash doesnt seem to handle lte that well or at all if any. So now im debating on TPR because of its mostly stockness, I watched the vid by QBKing77 and was reading the comments. There was mention of Installing the rom and picking and choosing the "bloatware" that you want installed with it. I looked in the TPR forum for about 30 pages and saw nothing about it. Can someone elaborate on what exactly it is that can do this. Because Im pretty much trying to get rid of everything but the SVoice.
