i wanted to know if there was any way to get just flash and multitouch on the g1 without downloading all of the other stuff... im running the US cupcake update...
no. you have to root, install the updated spl, updated recovery image, and a rom that will support the things you want, which at current is limited to hero rom derivatives.

Hi I just got my Samsung Captivate and have already rooted it. I want to add a ROM to it (Most likely Phoenix 2.2.1)
I was wondering, do I need Froyo 2.2 to use this ROM, or will the ROM install that for me? Sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm honestly confused by the whole thing
Thanks for your help
The rom gives you 2.2.1. Make sure you read, read, read
I did read but its a very confusing thread ^_^
Thank you for your help though!
I talking about everything in general. Read. God luck

There are some sticky threads here, some with videos too, about how to flash a ROM and so on things. Go through them and they'll give u all the info u want.
just rooted g1 on 1.6 with androot and installed rom manager do i still need to upgrade the radio. i want to run 2.2 and possibly overclock it any help would be great
There are numerous Froyo ROMs available in the development forum. Each with their instructions on how to install them and the requirements beforehand.
Most of these ROMs will have settings which you can use to overclock. If you are rooted, which you'll need to be, then overclocking wouldn't be too difficult with the available apps already out there anyway.
depends on which rom you want.
I recommend Sparksmod 2.1 which is what i am currently using.
Its very fast , one of the best froyo roms out there.

SuperAosp is lighting fast. I am using it myself, and I garantee it works like a charm. See my sig for the link to the Developer site. (FYI it's in Spanish, so you'll have to translate it if you do not read Spanish).
Thanks guys I appreciate all the info. I just need a little help for a friend. I didn't want to flash a Rom on his phone and him being a noob have a bunch of stuff crash and him get nervous about trying roms. Since I don't have a g1 I haven't tried any roms for it. Really appreciate your quick responses.

The best thing to do is read the instruction until you understand what needs to be done. Once you feel comfortable and understand the DEV instruction. Then there should not be any problem.
Maybe let your friend trial a couple of ROM's before he settles on his preference?
Hello,
I would like to try flashing my rogers captivate to ICS. Nothing fancy just a astable bug free ICS. However I am on 2.3.3. I updated through KIES a while back and now I have no idea how to root my phone or install roms. I am afraid the last time I looked into this everything was very different. I have read the forums but am still a little anxious.
Is it possible to root and then install CWM or something to install roms from my current 2.3.3 version? If so how may I do it?
Any help is greatly appreciated
Christopher
By reading all the stickies and reading some more info, you will be a genius at this stuff by the time you're done...
Yeah thats what I am kinda trying to avoid. I have to hack and read so much already it gets really tiring having to keep up with it all. Add to this work and school and its like info overload. I was hoping there might be an easier way than earning another mini phone phD. Thus far I have determined I have to change my kernel... I think? My phone is unrooted. Stock 2.1 to 2.3.3 KIES.
This Site is mentioned for developing. That being said for the rest of us, we are supposed to learn. The reason it's important to read and understand is you can potentially kill your phone.
