I've tried every rom I could find in the captivate section, they are all i9000 or some leaked 2.2 rom. I just want a rom that is based on our official JH7 but with some modifications and lag fix.
You want an Eclair rom?
Get an old Cognition 2.1 Rom, they're on his website.

I have done reading a lot of post recently.
I brick'ed my cappy once, I reflash the stock kernel, and it came back alive.
After that, I managed flashing my I897 into Foyo 2.2 and with Cog 2.4.1 Rom.
So far so good.
I am still very afraid of brick my cappy again.
So, I decided post question here, just to clear my mind.
If I wanna flash it into an I9000 Rom from Cog 2.4.1 Rom
What are the right steps ??
My current system config is listed here
Firmware 2.2
Baseband Version - I897 UCJJ4
Kernel Version - 2.6.32.9
Build Number - Cognition. v2.4.1
The best thing you can do is decide which i9000 Rom you want to flash to and read the OP of that thread for exactly how to flash. It is gonna require both odin and clockwork though. Which Rom are you wanting to go to?

From your opinion, which I9000 Rom is most popular ?? (This might be the best one i think)
Is it ganna be better than Cog's I897 rom ??
Really I prefer to stick with cognition but there is no denying that setirons kernel is the best one going right now but it doesn't play well with cognition. If I was going to go i9000 I would use mikeymikes conversion of docs Rom...it looks really nice and everyone in that thread loves it.
I flashed the bootloader version of jvk gingerbread and because i wanted to install a custom rom i downloaded the chfire kernel for clockwork mod but now when i try to install any jvk rom over the stock i install it in clockword mod but when i boot up nothing happens.
I tried installing the kernel and rom multiple times with no success . Please help me i want to install gingerbread custom roms.

I would avoid Gingerbread custom ROMs for the moment, the 2.2.1 ROMs are still being improved and the current Gingerbread ROM that's in the wild is an early release. The development guys are still unable to do too much with the custom kernels as well since they still haven't got the source code.
My advice is to stick to the Froyo ROMs at least for another month.
Thanks i think i will. Darky's here i come

Hi xda Comunity
Is there any way to flash a rom including the 2.2 bootloader via cwm? I want to try the cm7 rom, and it requires the 2.2 bootloaders. At the moment, I've Darky 10 rc6 installed, which includes the 2.3 bootloaders
Look for Ramads topic DEODEXED ROM in Development section of this forum.

Just try to..flash only the respective files(CSC,PIT,PHONE,PDA normal ones) this is Ezodine and it flashes with a pre-rooted froyo 2.2.1+CWM, so that you can flash a ROM or any mod and you can even downgrade it.Check the link for more info !!

Thanks man..
So my old phone is no used by my sister and is still running Fusion ROM on Android 2.2. For some reason the wifi is no longer working and I figure I would upgrade to ICS since I am redoing things anyway. I read another thread where a guy flashed straight from Froyo to ICS and is running ok, but I remember going from Android 2.1 to 2.2 was a pain and I had to wipe, flash back to stock, flash new bootloaders, and then the Froyo ROM. I would assume going all the way to ICS which has major changes would also require something complex but just want to be sure about the process. So am I supposed to use Odin to flash stock Gingerbread and bootloaders before I upgrade to ICS? Or is it really fine and all will work if I just flash an ICS based ROM from where I am right now?
I am thinking of flashing the SlimICS ROM unless someone can tell me a reason why that ROM is not very good?
Currently the phone has the 2.2 firmware, i897UCKB1 baseband, 2.6.32.9 kernel, and is running Fusion 1.9.8 ROM. I am not sure on the bootloader version, but I have a file on my PC from a long time ago called "galaxys-bootloader-JVB.tar.md5" that I think I probably used to update the bootloader all that time ago when I moved to Froyo.
See TRusselo's "[Guide] How to flash ANY Captivate Rom from Stock (including ICS)" that is a stickied thread in the Q&A Forum...

So, your saying I should flash to stock and then flash to gingerbread before moving to ICS then?
Nope. Just Read the OP of that Guide and all will be clear... Just Read the 1st sentence of that OP...Lol
