I just installed DLEV 5 and it doesn't have asian font support. Can't change the system locale to the korean. I was wondering how I could solve this problem
Languages have to be in the ROM or built to add to the ROM in a CWM flashable ZIP. I can't make that, sorry. ..

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.
Thanks for the quick answers. looks like I've got a project for today.

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!

Din't mean anything against you.
Couple days ago I flashed cm7 on my phone, at first everything worked fine and it was awesome. I should mention that I'm new to the modding scene. Anyways I'm having problems with my mobile network. I can't make any calls because apparently my phone cannot find my mobile network.
I've done a little research and I think I might have to flash my radio which should be no problem. I've read forums and have tried to find the appropriate "modem.bin" for my phone but some of the threads date back to a year or longer. Does anybody have a link to the best modem for my phone/rom?
This is the rom I flashed cm-7.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip from the cyanogenmod download site (won't let me post links -.-)
My other options I suppose would be to flash another rom and hope it works.
EDIT
I found this post ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9579987&postcount=11945 ) and it turns out that JK3/JK4 modems work for Bell in Canada. Just wondering, do the modems have to be compatible with roms?
ya the modems have to be compatible.. actually samsung code based roms and google code based roms have different installation files for modems
for me the KB3 and KF1 modems from this link CM7 modems ported from Nexus S work best..
When i first moded my i9000 it had its modem changed akd i got horrible reception. Like i wouldnt get service at the back of the grocery store, where my mom would get full bars on her stock phone. So i flashed to kg3. It is the stock i9000 gb modem. If you can't find it, pm me, I have a flashable zip on my computer!

Thanks for the replies!
I guess I'll try and flash KB3 or KF1 first and see if I get any good results, I'll update my post when I do. I suppose I should also read up on android devices to try and get a sense of how things work. Does anybody know any good educational sites for android? Thanks again for the help! it's appreciated.

Thanks for the tip, I know xda is an awesome site for information but I feel like the info is all over the place and sometimes a little challenging to find. I was looking for a more organized source of info.
I flashed the KF1 radio but I still don't connection to my carrier (msg: mobile network not available). I'll keep searching the forums to check if anyone has had the same issues. Any input would be appreciated, not quite sure what it could be at this point.

Hey guys, I know that not every rom is made for xt860 so Im just wondering, when I Installed minimoto it wouldn't connect to bell, It found it but then said my similar isn't compatible with the connection. I used to be on mav rom but out of nowhere it stopped working kept force closing my texting apps. I don't remember if installed a patch to get my connection working or something. Lol thanks if anyone helps me out with this. I've been out if the scene for awhile. Also can anyone confirm if YouTube, Facebook and guitar pro tabs work on ics? I also read ics has glitches with calling and mms. I don't have time to read through forums ATM so it'd be cool if someone could help me out with getting g this stuff installed. If I absolutely need to edit the build.prop to get it working then ill do that. If you can call, text and use Facebook and the ultimate guitar app then I want to switch to ics. Thanks

It sounds like you done goofed. Your only salvation is what was mentioned in a previous post: Odin back to stock. I've goofed up my capdaddy many a times. Sometimes Odin will not take the first couple of times but you will get it right. Just be patient. You must have misunderstood the directions. I know I have while flashing and I've paid the price for not understanding what I was supposed to do. You'll be okay.

If your screen works on kk4 then it should work when you upgrade. I know we sound like broken records with this question but did you follow the flashing directions? It's an elaborate process for beginners. I'm not saying anything about your skills. Just that everything must be done as directed for these ROM's to work properly. There must be something you're getting wrong.
