Does anyone know if the dev of this app is working on an update to make it compatible with 2.2?
I have found this the easiest way to root and lag fix my phone without going through odin and would prefer to use the app rather than any other method.
it works on 2.2 . install the EXT2 tools first then restart the app and select root 2.2
worked on my SGS using tayatumas 2.2 build ( typo?)

Have you rooted your phone? What version of the 2.2 firmware are you running? OCLF worked for me on ZUJP2 and XXJPM builds of froyo.
Im in the same boat, I can't seem to root ethier, anyone know of an easy root method without using odin?

Oclf can only root 2.2 if the kernel has recovery 2. With you have to use an custom kernel/Rom.

No I'm not rooted yet. I was hoping to use oclf as its easier to unroot if needed. I'm running official jpm 2.2

No its in kernel 2 or dome custom kernel.
You need to flash a kernel with recovery 2 in it.

Or after rooting, you could also just grab it from the market by searching for "ryanza".
Odin is really easy to use if you just follow the instructions.

I think z4 root is not compatible with your rom. You may want to go the Odin route. I used to use z4 to root, but after the 2.2.1 update it wouldn't work anymore.
Odin is fairly easy to use

can you tell where to read abour root through odon?
My brother has a new captivate but does not want to flash a new rom, crazy i know. But he does like the snappy way my phone runs. Can some one tell me and point me to if possible the newest lagfix that can be installed on stock froyo.

Having the lagfix will require a flash. the lag fix is built into the custom kernel.
Any way that the voodoo lagfix can be flashed to his stock kernel so that the only thing modded is the lagfix?

I believe you can flash kernel on stock but it will be through odin. You could always check AdamOutler's video about flashing UrsaMinor. Will also get you rid of the signature failed on 2.2

Even if you follow the threads linked above, you arent going to get very far with ROM Manager. they havent supported the captivate since it was on 2.1 eclair I believe. Learn to use ODIN.

I know how to use Odin I just couldn't find a thread to Odin cwm

-_- OMG I tried to be nice. You don't ODIN CWM. You ODIN a kernel that contains CWM injected into the kernel itself. I recommend CORN kernel and KK4 custom or stock ROM

I recommend you do a lot more reading of the resources available throughout the Captivate section before flashing anything, with ODIN or without.
I just bought a captivate. I rooted and unlocked it ( now t- mobile) . When I go to rom manager to make a recovery it doesn't recognize my device. Only gives option for i9000, epic, fascinate. What do I need to do to make a backup/ recovery?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Unfortunately there isn't an official clockworkmod recovery for the captivate. You'll need to either flash a kernel with cwm already embedded, or manually load up cwm on your SD card. What stock ROM are you on atm?
Sent from my AOKP icy-glitched Captivate via Tapatalk 2
Sorry you sorta wrong on some things. There isn't official CWM for GB or Froyo. But there is for Eclair. Sounds like he is on GB at the moment. You are correct about having to flash a kernel with CWM in it.
I stand corrected...but yes unless your still on eclair or restore back to eclair, there isn't an official cwm

Yea, I am on GB 2.3.5 baseband UCKK4. I also have a vibrant.I am really surprised at how different the two phones are. I would like to put a custom rom on the cappy. What rom would you suggest? Kernel?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Suggesting ROMs ins't allow because you will most likely get arguing. Flash Corn Kernel and try out some custom stock ROMs if you don't know what you're doing. If you have an idea. I suggest ANY of the ICS ROMs
I would like a stable ICS rom. PM me with any suggestions.

Going through files in root browser I found a clockwork mod file. Also a zip vcremoveboot-CWM.zip. Not sure what it is? Ideas....

vcremoveboot is the revert zip for voltage control, in case you have unstable settings applied at boot.
Hi,
I need help rooting my Samsung Captivate running Gingerbread 2.3.3 I896UXKH2
I did before, but then I went overseas, and I need to unlock the phone. For me to unlock it, I need to put it back on stock, and I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=979133 method and it works.
Now I tried to root it again using SuperOneClick 2.3.3, but it doesn't seems to be working.
Any ideas?
Thank you

You could flash corn kernel with Odin 1.85 for both root and cwm
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
Hey martin.y,
If u r just wanting to flash a Developer's Rom in the end...then just use TRussello's guide in the Q & A Forum. It is a stickied thread. Or simply do as BWolf56 stated above---Flash the KK4 Corn Kernel (.tar file version) through Odin3 v1.85 or similar (the kernel.tar goes in the PDA slot). Of course u should know that u r flashing that kernel from Download mode. Takes less than a couple minutes for the whole process. Reboot into the CWM Recovery that is included in the Corn Kernel and select to install ur Rom of choice that u should already have copied onto ur phone's internal sdcard. And prest-o change-o ! New Rom.
Or as BWolf56 stated above also, u can simply get Root through the CWM advanced menu options of the Corn Kernel. :good:
