GB source code? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Will the release of the source code for Gingerbread on Captivate make most of the bugs in the custom Gingerbread ROM's go away(as long as the devs use it to our advantage)? MIUI in my case?

Miui isn't based on samsung firmware at all, so the release of source would mean absolutely nothing for that or cm7 as they are AOSP.

No, you try again
The nexus line of phones always use AOSP not touchwiz.

it might help, it might not. in the end, it's up to the developers. speculation is useless.

[Q] Gingerbread roms?

I know there is CM7 but are there any other more stable Gingerbread ROMS for the Captivate?
MIUI
10char
CM7 for captivate is pretty stable. If you want better battery life, get TheEscapist's kernel and UV it.
CM7 is really the only one. There is MIUI, which I personally use and enjoy, but its based off CM7, so it can't really be called any more stable.
My suggestion is to wait a few weeks, and surely stability will improve as CM7 moves out of beta.
Darky is also working on gb rom. Its in beta as well. So something else to look out for

Concerning Darky's GB ROM has anyone read if it going to be like his 9.0 version which could be used for i9000 or Captivate? Or are we going to to have to Flash a Captivate ROM and Kernel to it ourselves? I post this on Darky's Forum but never saw or I just missed the answer to this.
Thanks

ofcourse he will make it for I9000 but there are many devs who help us by porting it for captivate...so lets hope....someone does it for GB rom too

[Q] confusion about JVB/JVH and other only letter listings

im very confused about the captivates organization of roms and what is and is not jvb and jvh.. i own a fascinate. and the only (only letter) acronym used with the fascinate are our "MTD" roms which is the file system used for our aosp roms..
what roms are jvb, jvh? what is your most current source? gingerbread or froyo? what is your most current ota?
JVB, JVH etc are leaked builds for international galaxy S I9000 which have been ported to work with captivate. If you go by this JVR which is 2.3.4 is latest.
But all these are I9000 sources modded to work on captivate. If you are looking at stock captivate build it is KF1 which is GB 2.3.3. KF1 is also a leaked build
Ok.. I have decided to go straight to miui. On the fascinate I would just odin all in 1 stock. Odin a recovery. Flash rom with kernel. It seems like all the guides I find want me to root.. Why would I root if I'm leaving the rom behind end going straight to a rooted rom? .. Is there a guide to flashing miui for captivate I'm not seeing? On fassinate you must flash cm7 first. I'm thinking I would do the same here right?

In answer to your question, here is the guide.
You'll want to be rooted for one simple reason - usually rooting allows you to install the ClockworkMod Recovery Menu (CWM) that will make installing Roms on the Captivate a whole lot easier.
Judging from the guide, you don't need to flash CM7 first. Just make sure you're running the original Froyo/Eclair bootloaders (if you haven't flashed gingerbread, you should have them), and that holding Vol+/Vol-/Power gets you to the recovery menu and that holding Vol+/Vol- and inserting your USB cable gets you to download mode.
Other than that, MIUI away.
Is your version of miui a mtd based rom?

I honestly couldn't tell you. I haven't used MIUI, so I don't have any experience to say. The MIUI info page is a little sparse, but a quick search in the thread does mention MTD a few times, so it's possible.
Cappy miui is MTD based. Gingerbread bootloaders do work but the stock miui/cm7 kernel doesnt ssupport them yet so you'll need to flash a kernel that does support the gb bootloaders such as TalonMTD

I ran miui on gb loaders with no problem. And I used the platypus/NEO 10, 12, & 16 kernels. Talonmtd actually kept causing my phone to freeze up.

Best ROM & Kernel for High-performance and Daily Usage..!

umm..to all i9k users!
We got this Hummingbird and our beautiful hackable phone in here could any one give an advice on which kernel and rom package would be better when it comes to daily usage and having a well native OC/UV support,tweaks.
here are the ones that i knew..!
ROM's
Jetpack v4,Darky 10.3 EE,Cm7,MiUi Galnet,Insanity,SURFACE v3.4..etc!
Kernel's
Galaxian,Tegrak,Glitch(nly for Cm7 and MiUi),Semaphore,Darkcore,Hardcore Speedmod..!
and from all the above ones i just tried Darky v10.2+Darkcore it was "okay" and no OC support, can i get a kernel that has the power like Trinity Kernel for Nexus S and having some pretty good tweaks and enhanced UI ??
If you got any ideas just drop em right here!!
Try CM7 using stock kernel. you will never want to change.

Vote for Insanity's CM from me.
Haven't tried OC, but UV works fine and 1.6ghz OC is supported with kernels like Neo's platypus and Glitch.
Also gives good battery life even when using heavier.
Never got FC's or random reboots.

it's not much diference.EE is final.take a look at the changelog.
I'm on cm7 nightly 103. As there is no more nightlies coming for some obvious reasons, I decided to stick to this one until the new nightlies start rolling(#104 has battery drain issues and some other issues)... And after using this for over two weeks, I must say this is the most stable, fassst and battery efficient(60-70 hours on normal use- GPS, wifi, 3G triggered manually) rom I've ever flashed!!

ICS for P1000 is still experimental, to say the least LOL...
Overcome 4.0.1 is an update (upgrade) for the older 4.0. Read the thread about that update and decide if its for you or not
Cheers
Overcome 4.1 is an update running on GB 2.3.6 not ICS ...apparently Alterbridge and co. are going to start something based on ICS but it won't be soon as far as I understand.
Go to OC 4.1 you wont regret it

There you find the kernel single too. You can OC that to 1200 MHz. I think that is the best CM7 OC kernel. It should run with other CM7 versions too. BTW even if CM7 is GB 2.3.7 and the GB from LG is only 2.3.4 I would go for the LG version or should I say cumstom ROMs based on LG GB. Yes CM7 looks better but it has far to much errors.
