I had a look through the Android development section and couldn't really find anything above 2.2. My GF has a captivate and she's finally willing to do away with the carrier installed stuff.
And IF there are no 2.3 ROMs (which really doesn't make any sense because I've been running 2.3 on my DZ since the start of January), what are some of the better 2.2 ones?

Don't Forget Serendipity, great support ,frequent updates
2.3 ROMs aren't out yet.
But there are some really nice 2.2.1 ROMs, di11igaf's rom being one of them

Serendipity is the best one I've found, Mike has a great eye for design, and he and Chance have great ideas on functionality. They pay close attention to detail and update the ROM frequently with easily flashed .zips in recovery (no wiping involved unless it's a major update). It's built on 2.2.1.

Care to enlighten the masses on this? Cyanogen's been trolling (IMO) on his wiki:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Flashing_CyanogenMod
"NOTE: As of right now CyanogenMod is not available for the Samsung Galaxy S family. Please check the wiki or the Samsung Galaxy S sub-forum for updates."
But then again, I suppose if you have a large amount of expertise and win in your arsenal, you could fit all of the witchcraft to the Captivate, unless I'm a complete noob and Cyanogen got a ROM hidden away that I'm not aware of.
Serindipity is one that I've been looking into. I have her phone ready to rock and roll, rooted + CWM. Just need to decide on a ROM
I find it strange that the Galaxy S lineup still doesn't have a publicly available 2.3 ROM... considering the first device to ship with 2.3 was the Nexus S. IIRC it has a near identical hardware set as the Fascinate, Captivate, Vibrant, I9000 etc.
LOVE Pargaon RC6....Great ROM! Stable, fast, and great GPS! It is 2.2.1. No 'working' 2.3 roms out as of yet!

Here's a captivate update zip. Follow the instructions on the CM forums for the initial install using the GT-I9000 rom, and then follow the update instructions using this captivate package.

As for it not making sense, The whole reason you have been able to run it is that HTC likes putting the source code up as to where we are still trying to get it from Samsung. Heck 2.2 official just dropped to day. lol
You will get 10 different answers as to some good roms. Just have a read in the threads and chose one that seems good to you.
ANy word on if MIUI team is ever going to start it up again?
I mean, it's already a working rom on the inspire.
I have no experience as a dev, but would it be too hard to port it to the Cappy?
I saw a thread dedicated to it for the captivate but atm the thread is closed because progression on it was stopped.
If any of the MIUI devs see this. Please don't stop. I know donations and me bribing you aren't enough.
But man would it make me a happy camper to have it ported to the Captivate.
Please. I beg of you.
i here there is a version from the nexus s, maybe it can be used with a captivate cyanogen mod kernel?
I would think we will see this soon

Greetings all-
Been reading the threads of both of the aforementioned ROMs, and, believe it or not, I'm wondering what the main functional differences are between them even though I've read thru all bazillion pages. Does anyone have any input?
I have tried both and they are similar to each other. Slightly different small bugs but Atomic Fusion was faster till Cognition got EXT4, so they are about the same now in terms of speed. I stuck with Cognition as it is closer to a stock feel.
AF has a newer Touchwiz, and can have ext 4.
Dg has moved on to the sgs2 and is looking for a dev to take over cog.
AF is made by team phoenix so it is still maintained/updated
What would be really awesome if samsung would release the kf1 source code to get better kernels for both.

Good to know. I'm looking to upgrade to SGS II soon.
Code is back up, we're hosting there again now. Grooby's thread is not under control by us and anything he says/does is not condoned by onecosmic or his team.
We're up to rc3 now and the rom is much more stable than before, seems to be performing better and people are working on fixes for gps,it should be working soon. updates are on the google code pages here: http://code.google.com/p/ice-cream-sandwich-sgs/
The rom should now be flashable from anything,just wipe and flash.
Thanks, will give it a try

I really don't understand the vibrant dev community. Or maybe it's just a problem with xda in general the the belief that every single dev here is on his own to create his own grand master ROM and screw the rest (besides the big names like Cyanogen and others).
But when there is another perfectly good ROM out there, that is under active development and has already solved many of the major problems with the current code, and then someone forks the code and essentially starts over, it is a real tragedy.
"onecosmic," please work with the devs in this thread to improve the ICS build that already has months of work put into it, instead of creating your own:

so you want onecosmic to stop working on the rom that allowed neo to even release ICS on the vibrant. Also he doenst have a vibrant, this rom is originally for the sgs and is ported over, hence why we need to flash another kernel. The problem with the vibrant community isnt the devs its the people like you that expect a rom that is 100 percent perfect and on top of that does your dishes and makes bacon
What you should do is go talk to neo about helping out with the rom instead of kanging cm and other applications. I swear his roms have more bloat on them then twiz.

Now that was uncalled for.
I understand that onecosmic was the first to build a functional ICS for the Galaxy S series, but that does not mean he has to be the only one. What's wrong with KANG'ing something? Neo isn't taking credit for anything, he's gave credit where credit was due.
I'm on neobuddy ics can i flash firs the rom and them the kernel or this rom uses a different partitions and i need to flash first the kernel reboot recovery flash rom/flash kernel and them reboot system

Passion v6 & v7 vs Onecosmic
What we want in this community is quality ROM's. No one has a monopoly on good ideas and we as users always benefit when we have more than one group working on competing ideas.
I tried and respect Neo's ICS Passion Roms. I've been using them since v5. v6 is a good daily ROM. v7 was too laggy for me.
Onecosmic's 4.0.3 ROM is much smoother. From the first boot. Brightness doesn't work. But everything else does.
For me, this demonstrates the value in alternatives.
Good work Onecosmic.
Try screen filter if you need to lower brightness
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
From my understanding, Neo's rom is still 2.X kernel while Onecosmic's is 3.X based. Different approaches I guess. Onecosmic is more than happy to help out with the Vibrant community, you just have to ask. I tried the latest and had an issue with the cpu staying on full blast and chewing up the battery so I went back to stock MIUI until he hammers a few other things out.
Nice way to turn a pretty thread in a flamewar, guys :/
Either way, does video recording works here?
And can I flash over Neo's ICS build or only over ICS?
I wish the OP was more informative...
So the OP says to first flash an ICS kernel.
Can I use the Vibrant ICS kernel here or do I use an i9000 one?
After installing this rom my phone will not reboot into recovery... is their a special way to get back into recovery?
Can anyone check if there mute/unmute issue present on this ROM ?
Anyone else have no service after flashing this?
I wanted to play around with my captivate armani version, and since I like features of custom roms and dont like camera driver phone , audience etc... and i don't like that my froyo is rly slow rly for some reason idk why, i did restore to stock fresh install with wipe everytihng still slow since android market went google play froyo laging as hell.
So as I'm enthusiast I wanna try to copile my own froyo from soruce ( http://opensource.samsung.com/ and i typed i search i9010) I got soruce, atm i don't even learn how to compile from source installing ubuntu on other machine atm, but I take a look insade files and It's look like this is just AOSP soruce code not samsung soruce code for i9010... sound rly strange to me.
So my questing basically is this samsung soruce for i9010 or aosp from google?
File is only 170mb so if some of dev have a time to download it and take a look i will be really grateful...
If' it's not samsung source i don't have with what to start
Pls any advice will be helpful...

Wow didn't pay enough attention, my bad. Seems like you're right, most of it is the same.
I did find this though which might help you on your quest: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876094
Yep i9010 is i897 for eu with armani sign and better plastic, and as far as i found only different is that armani have "better gps module" idk if it true but they are 99% same.
But if anyone have idea about this source i will be really happy to start working
Basiclly is this source useful and complete, i mean if i compile this i will get samsung touchwiz froyo or aosp foryo?
I will go trougth guides I already studied and i think i will be able to compile but only question is this samsung source.

My guess, Samsung. best way to know is to look for TW in it, it's the launcher after all
Yep that`s what was strange to me i think that source not comleate at all. Maybe im wrong but i downloaded i897 and few more source from samsung base and all are same they dont have any launcher in or im looking wrong. Only in anounsment file on site there is list of copyrights licence and i found on list launcher2.apk but it just in txt file list. As i know tw is seclauncer or tw03launcher something like that.

I do think it's great you're trying to compile your on ROM but if you don't mind me asking, why Froyo? We're up to JB 4.2.1 now :silly:
Last stock for i9010 is froyo, and im begginer,
So i wanted to do next:
1st compile Froyo for i9010 to test if it work ( it would be as same as stock) to see if i can and have knowledge to do it and if its usable. Its easiest to test since its orginal one so without modding it should boot and work.
2nd compile GB for i897 with small modification to work on i9010 if any is even required ( to use component from i9010 code if needed)
3d step is to try port from some similar hardware device witch have stock JB to I9010.
I like stock look even stock froyo vs custom jb. I know there is TW custom rom but only think is ported laucher quality of calls and camera are bad, i know there was some guys that ported from samsung source GB i897 with some mods and custom kernel but system was full stock unforcunalty links are death so i didn't test it.
and as i read somewhere there is not all opensource i will prolly need to get drivers TW and some other things. idk why but i read that they are closedcode in most case.
I really like and support your idea to start developing for i9010. I have an i9010 and I must say before you start, I have successfully flashed and used various custom ROMs for captivate (i897/i896), mostly ICS and JB ROMs. The first time I was sweating bullets, but it works and in my experience have never had issues using captivate ROM's on the Galaxy Armani.
