Here is the CM6 system built last night by me. Go ahead and do whatever you want with it. This is for those having issues building. Here it is
www.justanotherdev.slackdev.com/froyo.tgz
This is not a ready to flash ROM but just the system folder from the CM6 build for people to play with.
This is for devs looking to play with CM6 which was compiled for the vibrant and not just a generic build. This is NOT A READY TO FLASH ROM. I just built went to sleep and threw this up for people.
Enjoy!
?
can we flash this through odin? pda?

The CyanogenMod Wiki Full Update Guide for the Samsung Vibrant
The CyanogenMod wiki has the instructions for the Full CM6 update. I am unable to post the link since I am a new member! I haven't flashed the ROM since I just got my phone last night.

Where was that indicated? There are only two how-tos on the Wiki for CM6 of relevance for Galaxy S/Vibrant: building the CM6 kernel from source, and updating the Galaxy S/Vibrant to CM6. However, the "Full Update Guide" includes the following caveat: NOTE: As of right now CyanogenMod is not available for the Samsung Vibrant.
There are no full instructions on the wiki for building CM6, nor for truly updating a Vibrant since CM6 has not been built for the Vibrant. You will also not find even an alpha release, nor any nightlies.
For those who don't understand why this is the case, or why flashing a ROM through Odin is different than through the recovery console, it's probably best to wait until there is a "one-click" for you ...
so many people are going to download this without realizing that this is for development only and not even for use yet

Sorry if you took that as a genuine offer of advice, but it was meant as a sarcastic retort. People who don't understand what is technically involved in "rooting", what it means to "mount" a device or where the line between Linux and Android lays really have no basis in asking for aid when things go awry. (Sorry if I offend you, but seriously, you're asking for help in a development thread without knowing about which what you're actually asking for help? Really? Seriously?!)
No one has created a reliable method to fully supplant the Vibrant's recovery console, the OTA package that is normally used to flashed Android devices cannot be properly compiled and packaged for the Vibrant, users are still having issues building an AOSP directory structure—let alone a truly usable boot.img—and a complete system replacement is expected?! It really is no wonder why those really building apps and systems for various Android platforms avoid XDA, and leave it to those merely "cooking" as was previously the standard with WinMo.
(When is the interrobang going to be finally accepted as a true form of punctuation?! Really?!)
nice work, seems like a lot of devs are finally on this

People don't stay away from XDA because of the sometimes foolish questions people ask. They stay away because of the way they get treated by pompous d*cks like you that have no tolerance for people trying to learn and enjoy their devices more.
Everyone starts out without a clue and without help from others we'd all still be drooling on ourselves and sh*tting in our diapers.
Grow up and help out... or just go away.

ugh, step 1) read stickies... this does not belong in development
step 2) read through the options you have (basically SRE, UTB, and SuperStock right now) and if you aren't going to take the time to read them, hold off on flashing until you know what you're doing

go for it. things are very solidly organized (there's even a specific section just for asking questions).
there are explanations of what this forum section is for (the development/hacking of android on the captivate and how to use the developments). If you want some advice on what's the general preference, look at general (where I believe this conversation is already happening with a topic titled "UTB vs SRE") or Q&A.
You should also read about the potential ROMs you're looking at (SRE, UTB, SuperStock) in their respective threads. There is no "This is the best ROM that everyone likes so use that" thread because the options are still relatively young and you have to decide which tool you want to use the most.
If you find reading the threads for what the ROM or tools do too difficult, then maybe modifying this device isn't for you right now. There's nothing wrong with asking questions (specifically in the threads of the various tools/ROMs) just place them in the right place. Your question has nothing to do with development, and that's all I'm asking
ok thank you on a side note is there any rom that has everything 100% working

Seriously the potential of anyone really answering your question on here is a joke. Don't get me wrong, but I've seen ppl post things 5 or six times (in Rom or kernel) threads and if they are lucky enough to get a answer they are told to search the forums and when they do they just run into other threads where people are told to guess what...search the forums. So its just a endless cycle until you just forget about it and move onto another ROM or kernel.

To the best of my knowledge, every tool out there has everything working 100%... AOSP isn't out yet (which already has said they're having trouble with bluetooth, camera, GPS, and data) and SuperStock has supposedly spotty wifi and data.
Your two major options right now are SRE and UTB, both of which are only modifications to the stock ROMs so everything is working. SRE provides more options and more customizations and UTB hasn't been updated in a while, though they're both valid options.
Personally, I'd suggest using SRE and going to that thread and reading up on your options

Yes and no.
The ROM on your phone is the official release - all others are dev builds. This includes the captivate ROMs and i9000 ROMs. Newer captivate builds fix a few things, but you lose tethering and maybe a few other things.
The i9000 builds all require the Captivate kernel, so some things don't work right.
Again, you need to read the threads on the different ROMs and decide for yourself.
I think i'm running jh3? I can't remember which. haha.
I lied, I guess i'm running jf6 still... Don't remember that happening.
Personally, I'm running jf6 (stock), rooted, metamorph minimalistic theme (tweaked a little to my personal liking), and adw (to customize even more). I've tried jm2, jm5 (both with samset on top), and jh2. Never tried froyo because I need my phone to work and it has too many known bugs.To me, a rooted, customized, stock ROM is the best because it give you less problems and sideloading through adb is easy. Also tried the lag fixes but other than the Quadrant scores, I couldn't tell too much of a real world difference so I took them off. I never had any GPS issues with jf6 so maybe I'm lucky.

Hey guys im real new at this android stuff and i just got my captivate 2 weeks ago and im hating the way it lags sometimes. I've been told by everyone that i should root it or update to 2.2. well im going to root it later today but was wondering what are some basic things i should do to my phone to speed up and just have better funtions for my phone. and please keep in mind I'm very new to this so small words lol...

But definitely READ this section..... all the good mods, kernels and reviews are in here.
techmik67 speaks the truth... I got my first Android phone (THIS ONE) on July 18th and started lurking these forums less than a week later.
Right now I'm installing VMWare and installing Linux as a virtual machine so that I can deox ROMs, all-the-while combing over the Captivate source code in hopes that I might find some clue as to why our kernel is locked to the AT&T modem files. I'm not even kidding =P

I am assuming you are talking about a stock Captivate. If you haven't done anything to it, I believe you would see this in SETTINGS>ABOUT PHONE
Baseband version: I897UCJF6
Kernel: I can't remember
Build number: Eclair
The 1st thing I did next was a 1 click root.
Next, and this is a personal choice, download and install from the thread SREv1.2.1a. If you read that 150+ page thread (most importantly, the OP) it will tell you that it includes some important things, like sideloading enabled and others.
Then see if you want a lagfix
At that point, your settings should now read:
Baseband version: I897UCJF6
Kernel: Same I think
Build number: SREv1.2.1a
I would install ROM MANAGER and QUICKBOOT from the market asap. Then consider upgrading firmware (baseband version) from UCJF6 to UCJH2 or JH3. Read the threads. And check my signature to see my setup, which I like alot.

How did you side load? did you actually "install" it, or did you "push" it to your phone? If it is installed, it will be in your app drawer. If you pushed it, you'll need to use the my files program to find the app, and just open it and hit install.
I would suggest reading the SRE thread, because that is probably one of the best way to really get your phone faster.
You can also check out the Unleash the Beast thread. Then check out any lag fix by Tayutama (that is what I use, and I'm not sure on the spelling) because that will make your phone quicker!

i have tried the i9000 rom, which was awesome, but i got tired of that little video call button mocking me so i switched back to stock UCJF6 and did the SRE1.21a.
how would i go about upgrading my firmware without reflashing everything and losing what i have already done? i have read the threads regarding the JH3 rom, but didnt see anything about how to do it without losing my current setup

If I am not mistaken, this is what Titanium Backup is good for.
Rom Manager will help you restore like system restore in windows to EXACTLY as you are, apps, data and all, when you create the backup (which you should ALWAYS do before trying to flash a new firmware or update). Do that now.
Then, get Titanium. Under backup and restore, backup all your apps and app data (will show up white text). Also backup SOME of the stuff in green and red. You can see what to back up. when in doubt, back it up and think twice before restoring it.
If at any time you brick or have problems, boot into recovery, choose reinstall packages which will run update.zip created by rom manager so you can access the clockwork restore menu. Then restore to your backup you made and start over.
Lastly, check out QUICKBOOT in the market. EZ reboot into recovery mode.
oh. i already use those and know how to do backups and recovery. i recovered all my stuff from my i9000 jump to jf6+sre .. guess i will go through the process again.

The $4 for Titanium donate version is well worth it. I did a restore on free, and it took 45 mins of installing apps and pushing buttons. took less than 10 with the donate version with no interaction.
Well I will re-iterate what others have already said. Read.
But here is what I did:
Flash JH3 via Odin
Root via Bugless Pete's Unleash the Beast v0.2
download Terminal Emulator from the market
Type: su
Type: sideloading
By now you are rooted and sideloading is activated and a bunch of bloat ware is gone.
Now install a lag fix (search for Zilch's condensed version of lag fixes)
You can choose between RyanZA's APK in the market or his script or tayatumas update.zip. I also reccomend Chainfires lag fix in the i9000 forums.
Now everything is done: JH3 - Root- Sideloading- lagfix.
Now patiently wait for Supercurios lagfix port for the captivate.
And find a mentor you can secretely stalk and try what they try. There are some people out there who really know what they are doing. Here is aquick list.
Chainfire
Zilch
RyanZA
Tayatuma

Supercurio
And many more.

You have no idea. LOL
Pretty much what the title says. I know spacemoose1 is working hard on Honeycomb and I love what he has released so far. I have seen CM7 for GSM and was just curious if it was out for CDMA yet or if there are plans to do so. And if not, I would be willing to work with whoever to try to get it released.
Nope there is not yet only for gsm but that could probably he ported to cdma with some changes and a new kernal i should think. But not too sure.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App
I'd be willing to do any kind of testing to help a port for CM7 on the CDMA (sprint) Tab..
It does not exist.
There was one person interested in doing it, and he may be joinging the project. I think he also did a test build based on Froyo kernel. He is kind of quiet recently so probably he has other stuff on his mind.
But with new Gingerbread kernel I am much further ahead. To catch up the first thing is to port the Gingerbread kernel to CDMA and port modemctl and other things from CDMA Froyo kernel.
this sure does sound very interesting. i too wouldnt mind doing some test flashing for any developers. i flashed cm7 for a while on my Tbolt and i loved it. i had to revert cuz i didnt know about flashing gapps. anyways, id like to stay updated on this thread
I noticed Boushh's signature is
[] Current Tab:VZW Samsung Tab []
[] Current ROM: Latest Version of CM7 + Voodoo []
He found the way to let his cdma tab work on cm7

Hi All,
In my quest to try find a pure clean Gingerbread rom for the N7000 for old times, and nostalgic memories (from other devices).
After hearing there was no source, and it never happened... I've just noticed this post from another website, that claims it did... right up to Android 2.3.7 (the last of the Gingerbread) as all the bloated roms I see on GB are based on 2.36.
It appears the rom came from our very own, this site.... XDA. http://www.landofdroid.com/2011/samsung-galaxy-note-gets-unofficial-cm7-treatment/
Does anyone know anything about it, where I can find it...?? If you have it, can you please upload it.... And why is it so elusive?? As I thought GB was safe from the eMMC, and that it was only stock or leaked ICS kernels that were unsafe??
Thanks, Lister
Hi All,
Anyone know anything about this rom? Apparently it originated and was born from XDA forums...
If anyone has this file, would be very very interested, thank you... Lister
Same here but it seems it has disappeared...
well if someone have a backup please upload it, this is a legendary rom
Hi All,
Ok guys, a bit more research on the CM7 rom that was built for the Note (N7000) via someone here on the XDA forums....
I have since found these websites, giving more info about it...
http://mobiputing.com/2011/11/unofficial-cyanogenmod-7-build-for-the-samsung-galaxy-note/
and,
http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...ml+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk&client=firefox-a
And the file we are all seeking is called.... update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxyNote-kang-signed.zip
If anyone has the above file, please could they let us know... I can't believe this rom, its thread, and the many users who may of flashed it back then, have all disappeared...???
Or was this the reason behind the eMMC BrickBug? (even though GB was supposedly safe?)
Thanks guys, hopefully we can find it...
Cheers, Lister
best way is to PM the rom creator netchip for the file.
could you do that i am too interested!
Hi ASMI1,
Aye, that would be good... but looks like it might be "easier said, than done" as it would appear NetChip has been banned from this community...
So not sure how else we can find out any more about this rom, I would of thought someone who had this phone in the earlier days might of had a backup of this rom... we just gotta hope someone who has, read this post....

Hi ASMI1,
Trust me, I've totally exhausted the Google searches.... Tried every kind of possible variant to try and find it....
N7000, i9220, i-717, Galaxy Note....
Thats how I got and found as much as I have so far... I just can't believe who ever uploaded it, only loaded it ONE SOURCE ever.... As that source is now dead, the link just takes you to spam / malware post...
Can't believe the thousand's who have this phone, neither remember it, backed it up, or are showing no interest in recovering it....
Sure, its a dated firmware, and with Lollipop just round the corner... But surely, everyone wants to step back in time once in a while, for old times sake... CM7 was a fine rom, even has powerful stuff in it, thats missing from all future builds...
Hopefully someone might come to our aide soon...

Whats up with GB? Didnt the phone come with stock install
Hi @drulo222,
Yes, it did... But it only got as far as GB (Android 2.3.5 or 2.3.6) and was some 600 - 900Mb download, full of bloatware, lacked features other than TW stuff... and was badly optimized....
At least with the usual CM stuff, CM7 was only around 100Mb rom for this device, was running the latest and last GB build (Android 2.3.7) and so it would be nice just to see a polished version on our Device.... Esp for all those who grew up with CM7 on other devices (ie: my original ZTE Blade). It would appear at least a build was made for this device, but was only ever uploaded to one filehost, which now gives you MALWARE when visited... And all the users of N7000 appear to have never seen it...?????
Cheers, Lister

I thought cm is open source project; each one being incremented. I'm not sure if any cm would 100% percent be build for any particular version, yet this type of phone? Take the builds and see that there is always a newer one... but sure, that doesn't guaranty compatibility. I am saying cm7 probably isnt as expected from people... especially on more sophisticated phones. Anyway. id install one for test purposes.
Hi All,
Whilst still on the ever (elusive) hunt for CM7 for our Note/N7000.... I've uncovered more evidence that it did at one time exist...

So please, please, can you cheack your HDDs, or ya SD Cards, those who may of played around with it in the past (before I got my phone) and if ya have a copy of it, please re-upload it...
Many thanks, Lister
The more I see on this, the more I am starting to think this is bullsh*t.... and that no one here ever did manage to get CM7 working on the trusty Note!!!
Lack of posts, refences leads me to think we have more chances of finding Elvis alive than this elusive CM7 rom???

Hi All,
Finally, I have found the thread where CM7 once existed for our Note. Even if NO ONE is aware it ever existed....
It appears it was almost complete, but then got pulled because it did not boot.... / Much like the build of CM7 on the i9100... that never booted on it's own, yet got published all over the place, inc the official CyanogenMod website back in the day... I managed to get the CM7 for i9100 with a custom Gingerbread kernel.
I feel that's all that's needed for the Note/N7000....
If anyone has this ROM, I don't care how complete/dangerous they think it is... 99% of failed flashes are fixed by official firmware and Odin. Grew up on CM7 with my first Smartphone, would be cool to see it on the Note.
I know we have CM14.1 these days, which is even more awesome that the old Note is still living strong even today... But would also be cool to see the old times too on it... lol
/ someone must have the rom? lol
Cheers, Lister
