Miui has been ported to the vibrant and is currently in alpha. Porting that to the captivate shouldnt be too hard right? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=951291
It really is not hard to do on your own but a request has been sent for permission to post a port.

Is it any harder than "porting" an i9000 rom? Because that i can do
Normally no but I have not tried it yet so either wait for a while and I will let you know if it works or you can try for yourself. I would suggest that you just boot it as is then flash a kernel and modem though as swapping first does result in problems sometimes.

I used to have this issue, with a different app - dropbox. Turned out to be a bad flash of ROM. Stopped having this issue once I reverted to stock and installed the ROM again. Issue came in with I loaded my current ROM over an existing non-stock ROM.
That's strange cause odin'd back to stock then applied new rom last week and everything was fine then.. What I would like to know is what causes it, I would hate to re apply rom... Ugh!

When the site is down, it keeps prompting for userid/pwd repeatedly. I think the issue here is that it logs out after a period inactivity.

Go to mobiletechvideos.com there is a three part video on how to install a rom, what you are doing is completely wrong ... Before you do the steps in the video you're gonna have to do the fix I posted earlier.
Sorry for being a little rude earlier. I just assumed that was your issue cause that's all I've seen this week for some reason.

It's all in the videos, just make sure you mod the 3e recovery first or you will get a signing error and the install will fail.

if you have a later build phone that came with froyo on it, odin one click may cause a bootloop. if that happens:
1.calm down
2. at the bottom of the op of the thread i linked there are links to other firmware packages usewd in the pda slot of full odin. get back into download mode and flash one of those.
Or you can just flash a froyo kernel with odin and then flash the froyo rom in recobery and keep the gb boots as they are backward compatible.
I just got my captivate. Before this all I have had is HTC Androids. It was already rooted and I put cm7 on it but I want to try other roms and I can't flash any other ROM. It just stays on cm7. How can I flash another ROM on here? I think I have the Froyo boot loader on it. I hope I don't have to use Odin because I only have a Mac and haven't been able to find Odin for Mac

Heimdall works on MAC. Odin doesnt.
if you are going to be supplying answers to noob questions, please try and answer with actual knowledge rather than 'maybes'. your reply that someone needed to use ODIN one click could lead them to a bootloop, but you didnt think about that, did you? then you would be to blame for it when he comes crying back on the forum when hes freaking out about his phone not working after following your advice.
not trying to be rude, because i know you mean well, but you need to fully understand the captivate before you can open a thread like this.

Hey dude I know what I'm talking about cuz he didn't mention that He had Mac not windows. Also if he did flash with odin it would only soft brick which is Totally recoverable, only hard brick would be flashing the 3 button fix, that would hard brick him.

Soft bricks are recoverable, but what if he has the bad luck and his key combos dont work for what ever reason (it happend to me once) You just made that noob freak out and spend unnecessary time to make/ buy a jig when it could have been avoided. Don't get me wrong Im one that believes everyone should have atleast a jig.
And show a little more respect Pirateghost is a dev with 3,000+ post I think he knows more then us... Just saying.
I was about to say that i'm not
a noob. But I guess I am to Samsung. Lol.
I do know that if I mess my phone up its my fault. Trust me, I won't come back pissed at anyone.
But thanks again for the help!

Staxx is dangerous. it crashes like crazy. Flash it but keep abyss kernel and other ROM in sd card handy just in case. Try both and share your experience. All the best.and do not restore back up in either.go ahead.

Absolutely nothing wrong. I just went looking for my movie folder on my sd card. Nothing other then this. staxx crashed suddenly. What ever brief movement I spent on staxx I enjoyed it but I couldn't dare try it again at least not until I find out what I did wrong. Have you tried to access files on sd card through ol file manger that comes with this wrong. In the recovery I tried 'report error' option and the error was some thing like PATH TO SD CARD. Any ways I am happy you are enjoying it. Hopefully I will try once my confidence in the ROM is back.

Crash in this case means my note suddenly slipped into boot animation screen of paranoid and hung there for a very long long time. I had to shut down the phone by removing battery after rebooting. .. again I was struck. ..then I rebooted to recovery installed staxx again but I never got passed the boot screen. This is what I meant when I said staxx crashed.

I honestly don't think anyone will put any effort in porting a CM7 rom, as we already have CM10.1 working on our devices.
Maybe you can request for the modded apps and install them over a different base rom.
EDIT: I might do that as i have some free time, but i really have no idea if it's going to work. So no promises
Atleast make this from 10.1 version pls.....

Neither do I, I'm just testing stuff out
There was never a CM7 for this device so I wouldn't be able to compile CM7 and manually copy the necessary files over. If you find a CM10.1 version of the same thing I can do it for you.

Gave up, as com.android.phone stops working as soon as it boots.
Didn't had enough willpower to test with stock phone and another mix of apps.
The rest of the rom worked fine (except it looked like a crApple thing).
