Would an i9000 rom work on a captivate?

Would an i9000 rom work on a captivate without any modifications?
I found a rom with right to left language support, but it is made for the i9000. Could I just flash it?

yes but you need to flash the captivate kernal.

yes you can just flash the i9000 rom you want, but after it boots up at least once, you'll have to flash a reoriented kernel to fix certain problems, including the incorrect screen orientation. there are a few of such clearly labeled kernels in the development forum, so take your pick. simple instructions: one-click flash the stock rom, boot normally, flash clockwordmod recovery, factory reset within clockwordmod recovery, flash your i9000 rom of choice, allow the phone to boot completely and establish a data connection, boot to recovery, flash a reoriented kernel of your choosing, boot normally and enjoy. hope this helps!

There are several kernels in the dev section, I would suggest either xcal , hardcore, or glitterball. Which is best is a matter of preference. How to install, there are several ways, replace zimage in rom package, odin, clockwork flash. What rom do you want to flash

I am trying to Flash PilotROM for I-9000.. It is a hebrew rom developed and posted here http://sgsil.mobi/showthread.php?t=3&p=4&viewfull=1
I have the .zip package to install via clockwork however. I'd like to switch out the kernel in the ZIP Package...
How do I do that?

Download the kernel you want. For example xcal's. Open zip and find the zimage. Copy it. Download rom you want. Find the zimage and replace it with the copy you made. Rezip rom package. You should be good to go

I'm all set. Thanks!. Worked flawlessly with the Zimage file swap.

OK... Step 2... I customized the ROM now how can I repackage it to a .zip CW installation file?

Should just compress to zip then move to sd of phone. What compression program are you using
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App

I have winRAR. But when I say to make it flashable I am talking about the files of the ROM currently on my phone...

You have me a bit confused. You changed the zimage in the rom to a captivate kernel. Where did you do this, on phone or on pc

[Q] tutorial i9000 stock -> custom rom

my friend wants to change the rom on his stock i9000
is there a tutorial or app that can root, install CWM, etc so that i can just boot into CWM and flash a new rom?
thanks
EDIT:
from a quick read, do i do this?:
. Rooting your phone and flashing a custom Kernel.
3.1. Download your preferred kernel (the version for Odin, not the one for CWM).
3.2. Open up Odin or Heimdall.
3.3. Put you phone into "Download mode" and connect it to your computer (DO NOT CONNECT THE PHONE BEFORE OPENING ODIN OR THIS WILL NOT WORK).
3.4.1. If you are using Heimdall, unpack your kernel until you end up with a file called zImage. Select that in Heimdall in the box for "Kernel (zImage)" and click Start.
3.4.2. If you are using Odin, select the file you downloaded in the PDA box and click Start.
3.5. After your Phone reboots, go into "Recovery mode" and go to "Advanced Speedmod ULK features" -> "ROOT / Install Superuser".
3.6. After rebooting the phone again, you should have root permissions.

dont worry, i am well learned from stickies, but this is urgent and considering this isnt even my phone, i dont want to have to study for 500 hours before flashing like i did with my own one
can you just suggest one please?

If it's stock, flash ramads jvt with odin. You'll then have a rooted rom with cwm recovery.

so let me get the process right:
1) download ramads jvt and odin
2) use odin to flash the new kernel which will give superuser and CWM
3) boot into CWM
4) flash the rom my friend wants
correct?

Yep. That's correct.

Is he on gingerbread, if so follow the above process - you may need to flash a rooted kernel (chainfires would probably be best) afterwards as pda in odin.
If not on gingerbread, it may be quicker to flash milky's rom, it's got odin and full instructions in the download, and gb bootloaders.

your going to have to explain this to me, im really confused now

It's best to flash to the latest stock rom before installing a custom rom. Ramads jvt is deodexed but does not have root - so if you flash jvt, you will need to flash CFroot kernel after for root and cwm.
Ramads jvt does not have gingerbread bootloaders, so if it is on froyo or eclair, gb bootloaders will be needed.
If all this seems a pain, milky's rom is odin flashable, has bootloaders, root, cwm and also has odin and full instructions in the download.
Hope this is more clear.

I had almost same issue when I was trying to revert back from slimbeans as the JB installation changed the partitions on my phone memory. I had to restore stock via odin using a PIT file for repartitioning the memory to its original.
I think the same should help you.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy tab GT-p1000 jelly bean

Hi!
I try to get upgrade my tab to Android Jelly Bean, but I find this a bit difficult.
I rooted my device with SuperOneClick and it worked, but when I try to instal the ROM I get this message: signature verification failed.
Have been searching around the internet, but I'm not very good at this.
Basically I need someone to explain what to do in a simple matter :fingers-crossed:
Would appreciate if you could help me!

you can't flash custom ROM using stock recovery. that is for Samsung signed updates only.
Follow my signature for overcome method.
Please note this: don't need to follow all the way to flash Overcome ROM.
You only want to get to a baseline stock rom (GB-stock-safe-v5).
The you flash overcome kernel, which gives you CWM recovery.
With that, you flash the jelly bean according to the custom ROM instruction.

Regarding the mobile networks, do you get signal at all? Check that your APN settings are entered correctly & you're using the right modem.
As mentioned, be sure you're on the right gapps for your build if you're using an aosp rom.

Recently i'm reflash to GB stock which is the version "Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread [XWJQ8]". But after that,I did a factory reset.
Than I flashed the original Gingerbread ROM. Odin didn't give me any error message, but after the tab rebooted I got stucked in a "recovery screen" with the following message in red:
E: Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
E: install-application-for-customer: Can't mount /data
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
There was an option for format in this recovery screen, but I was unable to select it. The volume up/down keys worked to navigate in the options, but the power button didn't make the selection.
I force the tab to shut down keep pressing the power button. Started it again and the same screen showed up.
Could you help me, which part i was fail because of this?

Try the home button as OK button in stock recovery.
Edit:
BTW, which ROM did you come from? If you were from anything that is AOSP, likely you have MTD partition.
You need a full restock with pit file and "repartition" checked in Odin to get back to BML partition that stock ROM requires.
If your ROM file doesn't have it, you better use Overcome method and its GB-stock-safe-v5 that has it.

[Q] Can't Unroot phone

Hi guys,
I'm not new to doing anything with odin and galaxy s2, s3 phones. But.. I'll be selling my friend's Galaxy S3 MINI, but he rooted his phone and wants to get the warranty back.. So I came on the scene I did everything what was in this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2150822 . With Triangle away, everything worked just fine, but with the stock_recovery.tar.md5 I have some troubles. I flashed it via Odin, but the custom binary counter jumped on +1 again, but in the topic he said, that it shouldn't raise the counter...
I reset the counter via Triangle away again and wanted to flash in the firmware from this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159660
But before I proceeded, I stopped myself and wrote this thread.. Because I have fear, that when I will flash this official firmware, the counter will raise up again(even thought, that it shouldn't, I think it will - like with the stock_recovery) .
So help me please ?
Thank you,
Paul
