[Q] What is the best & easy way to downgrade to e2

on bell gt-i9000m with JL2 & 2.2 with E3.
i want to flash an 2.2.1 rom.
thanks
Easiest way is by flashing a kernel that already supports CWM with Odin a.k.a. something along the lines of the speedmod kernel.
I take it CWM is the reason you want 2e in the first place tho.

I would also recommend flashing the Speedmod kernal with Odin. It was super easy.

In the kernel is use there is an option to install zip file without sig check, not sure about yours.
Clockwork will flash the ROM, but if you're using a stock 2.2 kernel (3e recovery), it won't allow it. If you're coming from 2.1, you'll have no problems. Coming from stock 2.2, you'll need to flash a 2e enabled kernel (with Odin) before you can use cwm to flash a cooked rom.
Sign the rom yourself .
Somebody posted script for signing and zipping roms here .

how can i sign the rom? if so will this effect any of the contents and why dont devs sign it?

recovery 3e to 2e

hey i have restored my Captivate to 2.3.3 Stock and now i have Recovery E3 instead 2E and i cant install roms [im trying install MIUI ROM]
how do i restore my recovery to 2e?
thanks
Look to the "Captivate Sticky Rollup Thread" in the General section and u will find the answer that u seek...(although u sought very little)
And don't u have to have Eclair/ Froyo Bootloaders for MIUI ?? If so just Odin back to JF6.

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.

[Q] Need help rooting Samsung Captivate running GB

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

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:
