there is the link
mmm .. someone has have bound to try it.. you can try zilch to see if he would want to lol
I'm pretty interested in this as well. From what I've learned, flashing a I9000 roms usually includes flashing a stock captivate kernel. So far there isn't a 2.2 captivate kernel and that will create a bit of a problem.
Using the included I9000 kernel could work but it's definitely risky.

hey guys , i have flashed several rom and i really like the look and feel of the darky's rom however i have really bad reception issue. sometimes at home where i usually have full bar i have no signals at all , or last night i was traveling to Oklahoma city with my friend who is running captivate on stock rom and he had full bar while i had no service at all ! any idea what i'm doing wrong ?
Usually better to ask in the darky thread , but anyways.
Did you flash back to stock and then upgrade to darkys or did you upgrade on top of a previous rom? If the latter, flash back to stock and reinstall.
If the former, try a different modem. I am not using the modem or kernel that came with darkys rom. I am using the kernel with speedmod and ugjl2 modem and so far I have great reception. Of course that isn't saying much as I always have great reception using my cell device (can't think of its name atm.)

You are running the I9000 version and not the captivate port. This alone wont cause problems if you have the reoriented kernel but the jpy modem you have will. I believe it does not have the 850 band. Flash a different modem from the modem thread in the development section and you should be good to go.
If im mistaken please forgive as its 7:30am and I still haven't slept yet.

thanks for your reply ! well yea i did one click odin to stock 2.1 and then flash this using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868262
and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808286 flashing xcaliburinhand's latest reoriented kernel (odin version) with voodoo (I9000_reoriented_v2.3.0) so i'm not sure what is the issue here ... can you all guide me what modem should i use ? i was actually thinking about the same thing because i use to have a phone that didn't have 850 bad and i had this kind of issue ! so any help of how and where to get a modem to flash will be greatly appreciated !
I personally use JK4. A lot of people find that JL3 works better for them. Either way at the moment these are the top two modems available. Both can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9134296&postcount=2 and are flashable via CWM.
Also next time you are going to flash a version of Darky's just use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890429 or any one that ytt3r starts because he ports them over to the captivate and you don't have to worry about messing with kernels or anything not working properly.
thanks i'll try it next week , since i'm running Axura 2.2 and so far i like it
what would be the best kernal and modem combo for this rom i really want good battery life I just got my captivate 6 days ago and out of 3 roms i like this one just want to know the best choices.
Speedmod k12t kernel and KP1 modem.
Take a look at my signature, results speak!!
Nothing against what any particular person will state or tell you to use, not all combination's will necessarily have the same effect from phone to phone. This is really the same as which ROM is the best because what works well on phone "A" might not work the same as phone "B". Just try different combos to find what your phone likes because these phones are very finicky.
i've been reading and this is what i come up with looking at the rom i flashed this is what is says.
model #sgh-i897
firmware 2.2
baseband i9000ugjk3
kernal version 2.6.32.9
build # gingerr5
off this info which kernal would i flash the one for captvate or the one for galaxy s i9000.i just dont want to do something stupid sorry for the questions.
You would flash an sgh-i897 kernel.
Here's a link to hardcore's kernel, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893880.
you can use sgs kernel flasher to install it.
The link is at the bottom of the original post in the attached files box
not to ask more ? but is that because my phone is still based on captivate but with just a base rom.and what is really a base rom 2.2 mod to work on captivate?
Yes, the captivate sgh-i897 doesn't have 2.2 froyo yet, because it hasn't been released yet, but developers used the leaked version of froyo to base their roms off of. An i9000 rom is actually a rom from an i9000 galaxy s phone that was adapted for the captivate. But basically, all you have to worry about is whether or not the numbers match up.
Hey everyone, just a general question about flashing i9000 ROMs. Obviously they have quite a selection over there, and I was just wondering how one would go about porting and flashing them?
You'll need a reoriented kernel. Not too hard to come by, look for exaliburinhand's threads in captivate development

What if I'm flashing a 2.2 ROM? I don't want to mess with Gingerbread at the moment.
Xcal also has a reoriented kernel for 2.2. You can dl out from dev thread, or from SGS TOOLS (kernels are under rom tools).
Awesome. How would I use the reoriented kernel with the i9000 ROM? Just flash through CWM? And what if I want to flash a different kernel? (Onix, SpeedMod, etc...)
Put the redbend_ua and zImage files from the kernel in the updates folder of the rom zip. Overwriting the others. And flash the whole rom in cwm. One stop shopping.
I was thinking SGS Kernel Flasher (which I've used several times with good results).

extra step thats not needed if you know what kernel/modem you want to use in place of whats in the rom zip
Ok, so can someone take me through flashing an i9000 ROM in semi-noob terms?
Just got the 16GB Tab a few days ago...
Well after scouring the forums for all sorts of info, the amount of research done on the Tab by you people is amazing ........ and still searching for more info day by day....
I wish to know which version of gingerbread is the "most stable one" ??
The asian ones which have been recently released ? Or the latest european firmware ?
Because I wish to run a stock samsung's own GB version before straightaway going in for a custom ROM like Overcome...
Also if I want the closest stock ROM based experience should I go for -
[ROM/Kernel][GSM][Android 2.3.3] ROM based DXJPE (build 23 June) by DiP7 ???
ANother newbish question will be -
If I flash a ROM and install the provided kernel with it ? Do I need to also flash a new modem file via ODIN ? or the original file stays there ?
And do I need OCLF after installing a stock/custom GB based ROM just for some speed improvements and/or does the EXT2 file system conversion give boost ? (because OCLF in my Galaxy S SL i9003 really did make overall performance better) Also the lagfix to be applied is V1+ right ? or do I also go for applying V2 lagfix in OCLF?
Thanks for reading all this and I would love to hear your ideas over these questions ....
No , no need to for the modem file after flashing rom.
I see you are in India ( me too ) so Asian rom will be better .
No need of lagfix and oc overcome is very smooth .
P.S :If you flash Asian GB please tell whether it contains Indian languages .
A good stock GB rom choice is JQ1 because it has the proper, safe bootloaders, and can be easily rooted using the Chainfire CF-Root v3.3 kernel.
From there you can go in any direction.

Thanks a lot... I'll go with JQ1 for now... then overcome GB version and then probably some asian firmware...
Hello XDA,
I recently acquired a Samsung Telus T959D Fascinate and have anxiously waiting for a ICS release.
In order to use ]teamhacksung's ICS Port for Galaxy S (BUILD 9) for my fascinate, I used >>This Thread<< to flash a i9000 kernel to use the ROM.
Now I am confused a bit. I've done some research on XDA and google, but for some reason can't get a straight answer on what to do in order to flash back a regular Samsung Fascinate ROM, such as CM7.1. I want to flash back, but I don't know which kernel to use because I am currently using the i9000 kernel.
I could flash one by Glitch and try CM7.1 from there, but I'm not sure what the voodoo lagfix option is and why it would brick my phone.
If any of you could recommend a kernel to flash to use regular Fascinate ROMs, and a kernel to use for i9000 ROMs, it would be greatly appreciated
I would reccomend Lords kernel v 9.3 BFS. If you like I can send you the download.
