DO NOT use ROM manager, it was created with the best of intentions but ultimately causes more problems than it helps with.

whoah.....this is false!
ROM manager has been around a lot longer than the captivate has.....and it works great on other android devices that ARENT samsung
rom manager is PERFECT for stock roms.
rom manager is bad when you have ClockworkMod built into the kernel already.!
ridethelight is on a bad roll today.
So how do i know if its built in?

you would check out the page for your kernel but yes it does have it.
and looking at your rom... ect. you have already flashed a rom/kernel/modem (all in one) package.
so ya go back to post 3 instructions. also to get into recovery just long press the powerbutton then press 'recovery' it is easier than the button method in post 3.
Ok thanks alot. U all have been a big help !

creat CWM Zip file to install user apps?

How can I create a CWM .zip file to install all the apps i have downloaded and use on my Galaxy S?
Thanks.
There used to be one on the insanity thread, with walkthrough on how to use, not sure if you can still download it though, if its not there I will ask nitr8 to upload it, or try surface rom, there may be one there

[GUIDE] Revert from a 2.3 rom back to 2.2 with cwm

ever wanted to flash back to froyo but didnt want to use the almighty odin? well here is a simple solution that should let u install froyo on a gb build without any errors
1.open the 2.2 rom you want to flash on the file explorer on your computer then click into the META-INF folder then com, google, android, and u will see the file updater script, delete that file (if u have problems getting that to delete use a program like winrar)
2.put the updater script u downloaded in replace of the old one (if winrar or any other program made u unzip the file and didnt zip it back up automaticlly make sure its done then place the file back to your phone and flash away
dont forget about the thanks button

This is helpful, but you have to know why first. The difference is the difference in the install scripts. In CWM versions before CWM3, we used amend scripting. Amend scripting is no longer supported in CWM3 and above, it now uses edify scripting.
Kernels that contain recovery prior to CWM3, you can flash the old scripts just fine. For example, cmenards latest JVQ based kernel supports both amend and edify scripting, and is based off CWM 2.5.x.x.
Its all in knowing what you are running, and what's compatible.
I wont get too preachy on this, but Odin is your friend, nothing to be scared or wary of, and with regular use to actually set you back to stock, will create a much better running environment for your Vibrant experience. Shortcuts around it will eventually cause all kinds of issues.

Wondering
Has this worked for anyone?
The OP missed some key points in this "guide".
If your zip file is using is using the old amend scripting, then there will be one file called update-script (not updater).
The newer scripts, edify scripting, uses two files, update-binary and updater-script, and you need both files if your kernel or recovery method is cwm3 or later, edify scripting only.
Or you could save a dev a future headache, and just use Odin.

You're talking about his last deadhorse kernel. That one, if memory serves me, even has a pre-kernel flash that you did through sgs kernel flasher, then the rom and full kernel. Coming from that one friend, I do believe Odin is your only option.

Restoring to send back

Hi there
I've got my Galaxy Note and unfortunately it has developed a hardware fault and needs to go for repair. I want to reset it back to factory conditions, with the original TouchWIZ UI from Cyanogen Mod 9.
Can someone please guide me in the right direction? I'd assume I just need to locate a stock ROM, load that in and install it onto the phone and all will be back to normal, but I can't find a stock ROM online for Galaxy Note N7000.
Help would be appreciated!

Where can I get this firmware from?
Also, just in addition, the hardware problem is with the micro USB port so I'm hoping I can put the ROM into Dropbox and download it to the SD card of my phone (giving the same end results as transferring via USB).
You can get stock firmwares from sammobile.com pick one for your region. I would also flash from odin pereonnally t9 remove all traces of root etc regardless of fault.

If you have micro usb problem and you are not able to connect to PC then how you can flash with Odin?
Do this
Find first link on my note 1 signature
Go to post #2
Download GB ROM. You can directly download on device and extract it to sd card.
Install mobile odin (lite will also work because you don't need root after flashing rom)
Flash new rom using mobile odin.
And wipe cache and data after flashing (this step is dangerous on ics so I have asked you to flash gb rom)

Two questions:
Could you give me the direct link for the Gingerbread rom for the unlocked N7000 in the UK? I can't quite understand the list!
Where do I get Odin lite from? I can only find the pro version in the market.
Cheers
You are unable to download from hotfile?
On play store mob odin pro Page you will find discussion link of xda, you will find lite version there
Remember you need to flash a flasher file manually (pro auto install) but not. A big thing
You will find it on first few post.

Now I've just got a query. I've downloaded the add on flash kernel and it's trying to open in ROM manager. Is this correct? Surely it should open in Mobile ODIN? Am I OK to let it install in ROM manager?

Rom manager?
No need to open that flasher
Install mobile odin just, if you have kernel flasher it shouldn't pop up to install it.

Just after flashing rom successfully, just reboot to recovery and wipe cache and data. You will get completely stock rom.
I am not visiting q/a section much frequently now, as I have moved to note2
PM me if any issue, but can reply in morning only coz here 2am so may not be available after few minutes.
Good luck
If everything okay, then put comment here

I've just PMed Dr Ketan about this, but just in case anyone else knows:
I've followed the instructions and the phone rebooted to the Samsung intro graphic, then went to the glowing Samsung logo.... The phone now keeps replaying the intro motion graphic, then back to Samsung logo, then back to intro graphic, then Samsung logo. I left it a good 10 minutes and thought something isn't right, so I've taken the battery out and put it back in. Then I saw the Galaxy Note logo, then the intro graphic, then the Samsung logo, and the whole process as before is repeating and repeating. I'm really not sure what to do here.... Any ideas?
Matt
Just in response to my previous message..... I misread the instructions and all is now working fine.
Hmm, you must forget to wipe cache and data. After this it should fine.
