Galaxy S2 Rom on Captivate?

Hi there,
What is the best rom I can use that will make my captivate phone look like a galaxy s2 ?
Is there some kind of port rom or custom rom?
Thanks.

There are all sorts of custom ROMs and many of them are themed at least a little. I would poke around the forums, both in the stickies above in this forum and in the developers's one, look at screen shots (usually in the first post of the thread), and find one that suits your fancy.

Any particular suggestions?

If you want to run an sgs2 rom itself, there's an sgs2 port for the i9000. It's called hawkish. To run it, all you need is to flash a reoriented kernel (talon, dark core, xcal, etc.) and edit the key layout. I made a thread a while back if you're interested.

Hawkish already has its own captivate thread, but it hasn't been updated in forever...

Yeah that's why I'm saying just do my method

Thanks! Any other suggestions for roms that are for captivate itself?

[Q] Can i port Galaxy s3 stock rom on galaxy s i9000?

I read that someone lauched the stock Galaxy s3 and i tried bunches of roms and now i'm porting the 'vaule pack' 'cause the other roms didn't make my galaxy work 100% and i prefer the stock, but there are many Apps that only work on ICS and i'd love to have them again but not in a ics rom so that's why my question if i can port it, so i read that the files weights about 800 MB it's much but i can pay the price to wait downloading ja ja

Cassie's xtralite room. Most stable, most speed, less bugs, best deep sleep despite being a gb rom.
after flashing many original development roms, I'm back to xtralite rom and I'm not planning to flash another for quite awhile.
it's not the latest and greatest but hey, you asked. Peace out.

Alliance Rom! You just need to go into Android Develeopement thread and see which is the most popular one :laugh:
I was on Alliance ICS Final for a long time and this is the most stable and absoultely smoothest rom , but it is ICS, you may try if you like...
Now I am switched to Alliance XXLSC, requires the installation of some fix over the Rom customizer, but worth the effort. I just installed 240dpi mod and a few others with nova launcher and it is amazing... contains everything you requested in your first post
EDIT: you know that the stock ICS kernel is not safe for wiping? be sure that first thing you need to do is flash a safe kernel if you are on ICS (from stock recovery it is best to flash PhilZ kernel first, then you can continue to rock )

the best is Stock official rom preinstalled on your NOTE.

oh...if this rom is what you want, you should buy a Note 2 instead of flashing a jellybean daily driver for Note 1. I'll be flashing a multiview rom soon but I don't expect to be on it for very long.
stability is what I want too.

[Q] New to droid, asking for help

I have recently switched to droid from iOS and I am very confused about rooting.
I have NoteCore kernel on 4.0.4 and I am looking for a custom ROM to flash
I don't know anything about roms and I was only following a guide when I got NoteCore so a good explanation along with ROMs would be good
I want to know what is the best rom for a galaxy note in your opinion, I am not really looking for much. just it has to be quick and have S pen support (I dunno if all roms have that)
also any other cool stuff to add to my note
sorry for all these questions but iOS has so little customization I am just used to everything being served on a plate
many thanks, razzile
(sorry if this is in the wrong section)

This is my review for ultimate jb.i used stock roms for a year.so dont try to have a high jump.you may brick your phone.i used a zip file in recovery to root my n7000.i dont feel comfortable with odin.
I think you can find good info if you search root galaxy note.
Read my thread and i'll be happy to hear from you my friend
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

if you are on Notecore kernel, you must be already rooted and have CWM and notecore is a safe kernel too.
so you can go about flash custom roms.
here is a list of roms that you can choose from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1847786
read the reviews and features .. "my best might not be your best"

Well its accourding to your taste you have to try touchwiz ROM like alliance or ultimate or cyanogenmode like asylum (the best for now) then you will decide touchwiz or CM Every one of them have a dozens of custom roms
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Rooting, recovey etcetra.That is the explanation
Links to custom roms can be found in Android development and Original Android Development sections.Look there

Well NoteCore has CWM Recovery with Root Access.
I Suggest you to flash
Ultimata JB v5.1
OR
Angry V3.
Both with airview multiwindow and Note 2 features.Check them out.
am on ultimate v5.1 and am verry happy!

If you are new to android I would stick to a stock ICS rom with PhilZ kernel until you feel comfortable with how android works. In my opinion the leaked JB roms are not recommendable for a beginner, they still contain bugs. And I would not directly go to a custom rom too because it takes at least som knowledge to fix the problems you might encounter. With a stock ICS rom.in combination with the PhilZ kernel you have root rights, CWM to nand backups (system images),.everything you need for a good android experience. That's a good base to start. And as soon as you get to know the os better you can start using custom roms if you like.

[Q] Which ROM do you recommend?

I've just got my second hand note.
There seem to be a lot of awesome ROMs available.
Which ROM(s) would you recommend?
Preferably 4.2.2 and with the good Samsung features integrated.
Cheers

Thank you, that was helpful.
I've tried now Aliance and Ultimate ROM.
One more question though, can I not change the theme on the TW ROMs, even if they are deodexed like Ultimate?
Non of them seems to include T-mobile theme chooser.
Cheers.

There is a new rom called "JonROM V3 UBLSF" and the comment seems good. You can try it. I will try it after tested the rom which made by eybee1970.

Don't forget to try sweet 4.5 with speedmod kernel.
