[Q] I am a newbie, who wants to flash my Galaxy s vibrant GT-I900m

I have a Galaxy s GT-I9000m using the bell network. I been stuck with android 2.3.3 for over a year now.
I have been doing research and am finding it difficult to find a good source of information.
Mainly looking for the latest and most stable version of gingerbread. Also want to get rid of bloatware.
If someone can point me in the right direction I would be extremely grateful
Thanks in advance.

Welcome!~ Let me tell you it'll get frustrating at first, but if you have patience and are willing to put in some time to learn things you will no doubt be amazed at what you can do.
I had a similar issue a while back and I started a thread, which blew up with information, so I suggest you look through there as it has useful tips from some really great members about what you're looking for. I see you're looking to upgrade from 2.3.3. The latest in my thread is version 2.3.6 and that one is great. Try that out first and when you're ready I suggest moving onto Cyanogenmod 7.1 as it's based on the latest Gingerbread build 2.3.7
Good luck! Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1375971

this thread is useful i reckon. good luck.

Thanks,
Does my phone have to be unlocked? It if so the only way to unlock that I've seen is to use another sim card.

No, your phone does not need to be unlocked.
I'm currently running the JW1 (2.3.6) ROM that was released at the end of January with the Bell phone and modem files.
See post #9 in the thread pk1025 linked to.
It discusses and visually displays how to take pieces of different ROMs and install them on a Bell GT-i9000m phone.
It talks about installing JVT, but the same thing applies if you wish to install JW1 or the JVU value pack version discussed here.

Thanks alot the process is making alot more sense.
What's the most current stable version of 2.3.6. and where do I get it from?

Sorry if this doesnt belong here...

Well you have to consider that he might not be looking to flash a ROM at all. But yes, read the stickies. They're all over the place

I did use this guide and worked for me.
How To Flash Captivate ROMs from STOCK
If something goes wrong I did use the following guide
[Stock ROMs](OneClicks Master Collection)+[Kernels (Stock & w/ CWM)]+[Modems] UPDATED
I have installed one that has a Kernel with CWM and then could install any other rom.
hope it helps

[Q] Best Rom for ds7

I don't know which Rom is best for my t-mobile device which is rooted stock Rom 2.2.2 and want to upgrade rom. I know their are bugs in some so whichever has the least bugs and crashes would be great help and cut back the extensive reading thru tons of posts. Links to download Rom would be sweet too. I am a noob, but I got it figured out.

If you don't do that reading then you are going to have trouble so my answer to you is to read because you are FAR from having it figured out

I thought it was deep space 9?

HoneyStreak (StreakDroid 7) is the best for me now. ICS also is quite good, but camera (and 2g/3g) dont work.

Sending phone away- Need most stable ICS ROM

Hi folks,
Im a sgs2 user but I have my old I9000 international, that I wish to send away to a friend in need. Im sure this question has been asked a few times but specific to this circumstance, I would like suggestions for a rock stable ICS ROM. I have jelly bean on there now and it seems to be running ok, but if something goes awry, im not around to flash a new ROM for this person and they know nothing about rooting. JB is also not mature enough to send away to someone.
Been away from this forum for awhile since sgs2 but it appears ICS333 is decent?
Also if someone could tell me the best radio for Tmobile. I have no way to test it with a tmobile sim card since im on a canadian provider.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I have tried many jelly bean roms but those are not stable enough that I go back to ICS333 because it is the most stable. First install value pack 2.3.x like xxjvu or xxjvs via Odin then root ur phone and finally install ics333. That works best for me.
