Hey guys...!
Can Samsung Galaxy SGH T959W using it for WIND mobile Canada, be upgraded to Jelly Bean or at the least ICS ?? The phone is now running on Ginger Bread 2.3.6 and is too slow and RAM is almost full though there aren't any processes/apps running ..! I have to keep clearing up the memory (
stop clearing memory! that's killing apps, which will in-turn make them run even more often.
Check the General section, one of our greatest devs has verified that you can likely flash our roms, and root with his one click, if you don't flash bootloaders. If you don't understand, find the thread in the General Section, you can't miss it.

I suggest reading all the stickes, and the wiki for our device. After you understand the terminology and stuff, just remember that you SHOULD be good, as long as you never flash bootloaders.
Thanks again for ur patience. Appreciate it

Is it possible to use the Galaxy S custom roms from the i9000 forum on the Captivate?
Im new to this part of XDA, seeing as I just picked up a pretty beat up captivate for 20$.
Before I get flamed or anything, Im just asking. I searched it up and went through nine pages and found no results answering my question.
IF there is a way, may you please link me to it?
Thanks.

Yes.
But u need a "Reoriented Kernel" for the firmware of the rom u want to flash...jvr, jw4 or whatever it is.
Search in the Dev forum of the Captivate. U probably will have to go back a ways.
Edit: here are some... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13043268

Yes you can , you can go with either as long as you run the proper kernel .
I9000 with I9000 , 1897 with I897
the I9000 kernel will have the home and back buttons swapped but you can install button mapper , free n the market , and reasighn them
you can also run modified JB 4 at this time , Slim Bean , X Bean so on , but you will need to install the mapper program o XBean

Because the op didn't have a cappy 3 months ago. And 3 months of time on XDA can equal to 300-400 pages of posts, or more. If he posted in the development section, then flame on. But general sections are for inquiries such as this.
This info helped me, so thanks for bringing up a 3 month old thread

I need help. Im a noob and i want to install the new rom for skyrocket (4.1.2) . My phone is running the official 4.0.4 , its not root, and i want to install the rom trought odin or other method that could help me, i need instruction step by step, i dont want to break my phone./ i intalled a cwm recovery. I have the zip file..
But im not sure if thats the roms with the aparrence of sgs3 jelly bean 4.1.2 , please help me
Please read the stickies. Vincom has tried to make them as helpful and easy to follow for users who are let's say "new to the process" . I could break it down for you, but doing some in depth reading on your own is certainly necessary based off your post. If you read thoroughly and still have remaining questions then come on back. Nobody wants to see you brick so read up.

First of all, listen to Mike. And btw, the one jelly bean rom that has touchwiz like the sgs3 is by this guy named mohan. Yeah, and look up some information on different roms before installing. Try out cyanogenmod, slim bean, and many others because you may like one better than the other haha.

Dude really this is your second post asking the same question what are you looking for someone to spoon feed you? Why don't you do a little research on your own? Then if you get stuck ask for help.

liste dude , dont waste my time reading if you not gonna write something to help , this forum is for ppl that can help and give ideas ok? Dont write on my post if u dont like it
If you have the zip file and have read the stickies, then in cwm you're going to factory reset, wipe/format data, system, and cache. Then install the rom. You'll have to then sign into Google and re-install your apps. Back everything up before you start
The stickies will have greater detail, but pay attention on how to do the wipes. And make sure the zip you have is for your specific device, all s2´s are not the same. If you use the wrong one you will brick you phone.

JB 4.1.2 stock i think it's the better faster stronger
*Daft punk reference*
The question should be.. which is the most stable rom
Anyway PA 2.57 is awesome in term of speed and battery. You should try it.
You aren't really supposed to ask these kinda questions as it's against the rules of xda .
Go to the dev section, look into all available ROMs and most of the times, the developer himself will say what are the bugs. if you can live with them, try them, if not then move on to the next one.
And just go through the replies to find out how it worked for different people.
And BTW, make sure you follow the instructions in the OP till the last letter. ( or even the full stop )
--------------------------------------
LIFE!
IT'S WHAT YOU MAKE OUT OF IT!
Every rom is result of valuable time and hard work of developers. It is not good to compere deves knowledge and work.. isn't it??
You should search on your own through forums for rom and find out which one is suitable for you.
For atrix 2 jb leak china official and different CM roms are available.
Go try them but before that search well.

I would have posted this in the actual ROM thread but I just joined and don't have enough posts to reply in a developer thread. Are Samsung T989 roms compatible with the Samsung T989D? This is essentially the exact same phone, and the rooting process is nearly the same... Sorry, this will be my first custom ROM and my phone is required for work purposes so I'd like to ask and play it safe. TIA
