1. Read the new owners guide.
2. This forum is about learning things by yourself. Don't expect to be spoonfed.
3. Custom ROM always =Rooted mind you.

You have to discover by yourself what suits your needs.

the new user guide (that i wrote) teaches about stickies! and where to find them!
find the stickies in the captivate general, q&a and dev forums they have all the answers you are looking for and way more.
go. read. learn.
this is really basic stuff. At&t does not like you installing apps not from the market "its called side loading" you need to be rooted to fix it and there are pleanty of guides "one click root has an option to enable non market apps" to get a different rom go to the dev sectoin chose a rom and follow the simple directions or for a guide for the entire process http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884364
Assuming what you meant was that you want ATT's crap taken off and a new ROM...
Why would you not want your device rooted? If voiding your warranty is a concern it's fine, there are plenty of methods to return back to stock Eclair/Froyo. And there really isn't a ROM out there that's head and shoulders over the rest, you're going to have to play around and see which one you like the feel of the best. Try out a different ROM every couple of days and see how you like it.

If you are asking someone to help you build a rom well... I don't think that will happen. You can go to samfirmwares.com and download a stock i9000 rom, but without root you, and if you don't know how to build to incorporate the home button and haptic feedback fixes, your phone won't work right. My suggestion is to go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
They are all stock i9000 roms with only busybox and root installed. I'm using the stock jvh on my captivate, at the moment, and it works great. You will have to deal with root. It's better to be rooted anyway.

Only replying to that small part of your post, and correcting you by saying no, you don't need to be rooted to sideload applications. SWM (Sideload Wonder Machine) can do it so long as you have the drivers installed and USB Debugging on. I installed several applications as soon as I got the phone, long before I ever rooted my phone, much less installed a custom ROM on it.

Why didn't you use google? There are plenty of places that explain how to root that aren't on this site, which is more an "advanced" place anyways(I use that term loosely, but I get the idea that people here assume you know a little about your phone).
Check out MobileTechVideos, the guy who does those had a three-part, in-depth ROM flash set of videos that explain exactly how to use One-Click to Root.
Edit:
Christ dude, use some decent punctuation and at least attempt to be succinct in your requests. Freaking out isn't going to get you anywhere.

I love my Inspire but I want to get rid of bloatware and block ads. Easy right? Just root it. Well, every thread I've found has out of date links or says they are not for 2.3 or higher.
All the links to Bubby's one click either say 'nothing to see here' or that they only work for something prior to 2.3.
Other than one link for the Revolution rom with over 750 pages I have read every page and every link referring to rooting and installing a new rom.
Could someone please post a guide with current links? Or just updated links for the old guides if they still work with the new tools?
Thanks for any help guys!

I may sound like a layman, but there used to be a thread in android development subforum under HTC Inspire that offered ACE hack kit, a program that would root your phone and install an advanced "recovery" system in your phone. Among others, this one is by far the easiest and effortless way of rooting the phone. Once the hack kit is installed, you can effortlessly install any ROM that has been tested by many on HTC Inspire, such as these from the link http://theunlockr.com/category/roms-2/android-roms-2/htc-inspire-4g-roms/
However, like another poster pointed out, the dev that offered us the Advanced ACE hack kit (AAHK) is no longer with XDA. May be he has his own website where he offers it for free. This used to be where it was offered.
Ah, the post above, somewhere masked in the sig is a way to get AAHK.
Your signature led to another and then....

I finally found it! There were a few more new websites that still contained bad links. But a few more searches and a read through another 'I can't find it' thread finally got me to a good link.
Thank you again for the good-naturedness of your reply It seems things have gotten very testy in the last 6 months or so. There are obviously a lot of people who are, um, genuinely challenged when it comes to, um, thinking. Based on spelling it seems that the issue (being stupid) is genuine and yelling at them isn't going to help.
So again - THANK YOU! It really did take a specific search to find the link and it took three searches to find the right specific search. You started me on the path to the right search.
Link found on attn1's twitter.
I for sure will donate to him. Hopefully I won't have to bother him with any kickban questions lol.
Well, I just rooted my inspire 4g yesterday and used the method from here:http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Ace:_Rooting_&_CyanogenMod it went smoothly and completed successfully and I flashed the custom rom already.
I tried to follow other hack tools but all them wanted to uninstall htc sync and relative drivers from the computer which is a pain

Thank you so much for your most helpful response. Seeing as I had indeed searched several time using different search strategies and didn't find the answer I am most thankful for your able assistance.
As for being in the wrong section, being new here I obviously am not as adept as you in navigating this forum. Once again I must thank you for your enlightenment. You clearly are a paramount of good will and helpfulness.

Thank you for your help. I will check these out. It is a great tablet as is my original Tab 10.1. Between them I use my labtop a heck of a lot less.
Unfortunately, the first link will not allow me to download the file which is apparently what I am looking for and from the second link I can't seem to find the device or file I need. Thanks again though because I now have a better idea of what to search for.

I did not make my request clear, sorry. What I am looking for is the stock 4.0.4 upgrade with stock recovery and root injected into the upgrade.
I am not looking for custom ROMs or custom recovery. Thanks for your patience.

The big red download doesnt work!!! That is why I asked.
Im coming from htc one x, htc one, galaxy s3, and I have never been fussed at so much about asking a question about something I couldnt find....I know how to search. I find ALL kinds of stuff on restoring to gingerbread, but very limited on ICS, and the few spots I found, I couldnt find a link that worked.
I finally found a spot that had those 3 US fxz variants listed and just wanted to ask a simple question on which one to use.
I do search always prior to asking questions...and I do appologize I wasnt able to find the answers to my questions prior to these.
I do appreciate the help though, much...thank you!
