Yes, check out Lox 's thread in Android development. Or try eViLs or Leo's prepackaged ROMs.
take a look here. It's a pre-rooted, deodexed version with stock or black status bar.
You guys are the best! Thanks soooooo much!!!
This is the LOX instructions I followed :

Worked perfectly for me I was running FRF50 upgraded from Cyanogen 5.0.6.
I'm Not sure if it said to do this but I flashed the no-radio version then let it completely boot so everything is 'written' or whatever causes the first boot to take longer.
I saw I lost root, no big surprise because there was were root files posted as well.
Rebooted into RA Recovery and flashed the root file.
No Wipe when going from FRF50 to this ROM, all my programs still work just like they did before.
Thanks a lot guys
Hey Everyone,
From my reading of posts everyone seems to recommend flashing back to stock before flashing a custom ROM.
The Captivate I obtained from Rogers already had 2.2 Froyo. Will I be able to flash a custom ROM as is (since I technically am at stock) or will I need to downgrade to 2.1 using the 2.1 Rogers ROM posted on the wiki?
Thanks in advance
No, you should be fine to flash new ROMs onto it. Just root yourself, get Rom Manager, put ClockworkMod on it, reboot into Recovery, and you're done!

DISCLAIMER: I don't know anything about the Rogers Cappy.
The US at&t Cappy running 2.2 has 3e recovery which checks signatures on a file you are trying to flash. That is why venomio recommended installing Clockwork. However, it might be easier to use Odin one click to go back to 2.1 and flash from there. Then you do not have to worry about trying to get ClockworkMod installed on 2.2 (it is not a very straightforward process).

follow all the advice in the wiki, i re-wrote it last month! read! learn! brick! and learn some more!
you have 2.2 so you have 3e recovery with signature verifacation (mentioned in wiki) that is the only extra hurdle you will have with flashing over 2.2. you will have to fix that before rom manager will be able to install clockwork. **after you have a custom rom with clockwork built into the kernel you wont need to reinstall rom manager.

yes but see above ^
Thanks everyone for the help, followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909213 (thanks to existz for posting guide) to get past the 3e recovery and now I got Serendipity 6.2 running on my phone.
hey guys my rogers captivate is stuck in a recovery mode loop(it boots into recovery all the time). Could someone please help me get out of it.
This problem started happening after i tried switching from the team icssgs 14.1 rom to the apex 12.4 rom. I think the problem happened after I changed the bootloader to an att 1897 bootloader after flashing the apex rom.
I have tried reflashing the team icssgs rom and flashing other kernels but nothing has worked so far.
Could someone please help me out. I've searched hard but am totally stumped.
Yep. I don't think u can flash bootloaders while on ics, miui or cyanogenmod.
U need to use Heimdall/Odin and flash back to Stock and then go from there with the Apex install instructions. Check the Stickied Thread in the Development section about Odin/Hemdall Stock One Clicks.

Here's the link to the Rogers stock one-click odin flashes. They've saved my bacon a few times when needing to reflash to stock.

Hai there, sorry for asking this nooble question but my friends phone seems broken.
My friends got a rooted SGS which has/had TeamHacksungs CM9 on it, which was working as a charm.. Then somehow last night when he pulled out the phone out of his pocket it was bootlooping, he took it to me and I noticed i coulnd get into CWM Recovery. However I am able to get into "Download-mode" Could anyone point out to me how exactly I flash a recovery image to this phone and what files should be used. I did look around the fora myself but only came across some very old posts which I doubt are compatible with a phone that was already rooted, and was already running the latest versions of CWM and Android [4.3]
I already tried to flash a speedmod kernel that came with CMW, which failed.. im still able to get into download mode.
Any halp on this would be really appreciated.
Which files do I flash in Odin to get a working recovery again?
Thanks!
You should be able to flash a stock rom using ODIN, and from there you'll be able to root it and install a custom one again.
ah yea, i posted that too soon, yea thats exactly what i did, i followed:

I have the exact same problem, and i cant manually install the recovery either. im in v30a aswell and my pc is running on windows 8. dont know if that might be the issue.
Rom manager ain't compatible as ics got new bootloader and partition table. Everything's changed now, many gets confused
Thread moved. Please post all your questions here in Q&A in future. Remember asking for help is still asking a question.
