Not a dumb question at all, and you're right, there isn't much out there...
I WAS gonna' link to the few that were available, but it looks like a TON of development threads have been moved and/or deleted... strange...
This is from my post on UltimateDroid, not sure how useful they are now, though...
Here are the ROM/Kernal links from XDA:

This guy seems to be doind the most work for us CDMA Tab owners:

There's a DEV working on a HC port (don't know if it will be carrier specific) and he seems to have the most thorough work so far, but I can't find that freakin' thread either... Server issues must be worse than expected...

Thank you for your reply

Usb tethering options?

Well I am currently running Froyo 2.2 rooted on my Captivate. I have no internet at home so I am reduced to tethering via usb. What is a cheap way to do this? I have tried renameing/deleteing the tetheringmanager but didnt work.
Even links to forums that could help me would be appreciated, and I wont mind using a rom or something else as long as its free lol
Thanks for the help

Flash a rom. They all have it enabled by going around at&t

Any good ones that you have tried?

Loaded question
I have flashed nearly everyone available. They are all good in their own right. Telling you one is best or better is mostly opinion. Depends on what you are looking for especially in appearance. The one I would avoid for a first timer is cm7, which is what I am running but is not as easy to flash.
Look at captivate development. Take a look at the Roms available.

Thanks for the info! And what I am mostly looking for is usability and tethering lol it could look beautiful but if it lags, cant support flash 10.1, and you can't barely do anything with it besides call and text then it ain't for me lol

Abd another reason I ask cause since I don't have internet..i brick I screwed..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
You are right and I would not flash without internet.
Maybe someone can provide a safer option
Sent from my Captivate using XDA Premium App
That is what I am thinking..
Plus I have yet to try flashing because of having no internet.
If I could find possibly someone that knows how to change APK files and change the file tetheringmanager114.apk and just install it so it allows it to use the mobile AP and usb tethering no problem but I have yet to find it or a forum with an idea how to.

Modems

Could I request that someone make a sticky in the dev section with a collection of all the modems available for the tab. We have one in the captivate section and it's extremely useful.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
I am looking into doing that. A collection of flashable zip modems in CWM recovery thanks to Alterbridge. In the process of collecting modems.
Awesome. I have a question. My tab refuses to get 3g or hsdpa. It does just fine it ottawa where I am from but doesn't in other places. I soul just chalk it up to the network but both of my captivates get 3g and hsdpa in the same area. In the process of trying as many modems as I can now.
Any explanations would be appreciated.
Running the l latest overcome.

I asked this same sorta same question yesterday, good to hear someone is making a list.
Do u by any chance know which modem came with your rogers tab. Am assuming its rogers galaxy tab canada right?
Nope. Sorry. Euro tab.

I'm looking for US Cellular modem for the tab. Anyone? Any help is greatly appreciated!
@Beny check the apn settings. If they are empty. Get them and put them in. Your carrier should have it.
Will soon post the thread just need to get permissions and collect more modems.

Didn't think to check that but after checking, all devices are on the same apn and still no change. Tab only picks up edge.
Would love to get my hands on whatever modem the rogers tab comes with.

Benny,
That is a good idea, Rogers might bring a different result.
Who can extract the modem.bin for us to try?

Compatible Roms for the Vivid on Straight Talk.

Hello again all. My friend ended up purchasing the Vivid and we'll be activating it on Straight Talk shortly. My question now is this:
What roms are compatible? I see a lot of them with AT&T in the name/description. Would these be unusable? All I/she wants is to have a stable and preferably debloated ICS ROM. Everything else is gravy. Thoughts?

All of them are usable. If you want a de-bloated ics rom try rum float by pirate ghost.
All you need are the correct APN settings and your good.
Ah, you all are a Godsend. I'm just used to doing things simply on Verizon, so all this is new to me. Time to get cracking!
Err....didn't he pull his roms?

He is on a different site now. Just Google his name and rom.

You might have better luck in the ATT i717 forum. People posting here can tell you how to get an i717 on T-Mobile's network but it seems that you are trying to do the opposite.
Okay ill try to do that thank you for pointing me in the right direction

Tethering and at&t

I'm trying to bypass at&t block on tethering apps in order to use my plan with my tablet as well. I rooted my phone, but every app i downloaded appears to be blocked from accessing my phone connection by at&t (they charge separately for that "honor").
Any suggestion?
Thanks
Ivan

If you want to use stock ROM, there's a WiFi tether fix in the AT&T Development forum.

Both posts found in the AT&T One Development forum. Both on first page and one thread apart. Seems to me like you didn't really bother looking or using the search function. Took me less than two minutes to find the threads and post this reply.
Most others will tell you to search on your own, so you might want to get familiar with using the forum and it's capabilities.
