There's no clear thread on the overall state of the EI22 roms.
so I figured I'd make one given i wasted 3 hours of my life I won't get back testing these.
Testing Methodology:
I updated to EI22 by using ODIN to flash the EI22 repack by noobnl.
Then I booted to CWM and flashed the EC05toEI22 modem.zip
On Installing each rom I followed these steps:
1. Flashed rom 2. Wiped Data/Factory Reset 3x. 3. Flashed rom again. 4. Sacrified a Goat to the Samsung Gods.
On testing/verifying GPS functionality I would make sure it would lock. Reboot the phone. check for a lock again. and play with toggling on and off the GPS seeing if I could make it crash.
On testing/verifying WIFI/3G/4G was performed with Speedtest to confirm data connection.
turning it off. turning it on again. and reverifying with speedtest.
1. noobnl's Pre-Rooted DEODEX EI22 Repack w/ EC05 Modem.
WORKING: DATA/3G/4G/GPS/WIFI
Not Working: Nothing I could find.
2. [ACS] ICS V2
WORKING: DATA/3G/4G/WIFI
NOT WORKING: **GPS**
Notes: Best Looking Rom, also heavily modified for performance but GPS no worky.
3. ERA's LegendaryROM EI22 Beta 3 Rom.
Working: DATA/3G/4G/GPS/WIFI
Not Working: Nothing I could find.
Notes: Fairly plain rom aesthetically, modified quite a bit for performance.
but it has full functionality.
This will be updated as I flash other roms. Please feel free to add your own experiences.
Glad I'm not the only one with the gps issue on the ICS rom. Might just pull his themed apps and put them in the ERA rom until I have mine done.
Try Flashing ACS ICS after ERA Beta 3...
The GPS Remained functional for me.

I've been wanting to do this for quite some time now actually. I love all the creativity of the ROMs and kernels coming down the pipe now, but I really don't like relying or waiting on others. I'd much rather do it myself. Only trouble is, even though I learn quickly, I have no real programming experience. I may have to just jump in though, as this is fascinating as hell to me.

Hi
You know maybe already some of my work even if this is my first post in the captivate forums.
Let me introduce you the stock+Voodoo stable kernels.
Those are built injecting Voodoo lagfix inside an original Samsung kernel built specifically for Captivate.
It comes with extensions like "su" and also ClockWorkMod recovery as default recovery.
Voodoo lagfix converts /system, /cache, /dbdata and /data to Ext4 with optimized parameters for speed but also guaranteeing data integrity.
Also, it configures the write behavior of Linux to prevent lag from happening, plus apply some memory management providing a better balance than stock settings.
Designgears help a lot during the development of this new stable release, testing endlessly new experimental code I was writing Thanks!
What it's not: voodoo sound, voodoo sharpness. Those improvements needs kernels built from sources.
Froyo only versions for now, I'll build Eclair version later.
update.zip you can flash with ClockWorkMod recovery (not 2e or 3e)
UCJJ4+Voodoo http://dl.project-voodoo.org/stock+...k+Voodoo-Froyo-I897-UCJJ4-unsigned-update.zip
UCKB1+Voodoo http://dl.project-voodoo.org/stock+...k+Voodoo-Froyo-I897-UCKB1-unsigned-update.zip
.tar you can flash with Odin
UCJJ4+Voodoo http://dl.project-voodoo.org/stock+Voodoo/tarballs/stock+Voodoo-Froyo-I897-UCJJ4.tar
UCKB1+Voodoo http://dl.project-voodoo.org/stock+Voodoo/tarballs/stock+Voodoo-Froyo-I897-UCKB1.tar

Cog and Auxura would probably be ok. I haven't tried it yet though. The "stock" he is referring to, I think, is Captivate based Froyo Roms (ji6, jj4).
do it work with JPU roms like Darky 5.2?
Does not work in axura
is not working with axura 2.2 i have no audio in phone call i can't heard nothing

they're all awesome.
They are all (mostly) stable.
Try one on and see how it fits.
If you don't like it, flash another. It's not too terribly addicting.
It all depends on what you are looking for. Me personally I like the Frankenstein rom but I had radio issues and switched to the midnight rom and it runs very well.

Why do questions like this even get asked? If there were ROMs that were inferior in every way, such that preference had no bearing... they wouldn't be on the first page or two of the forum.
You are going to have a favorite. Go start trying stuff like everyone else did.
Like I've said a million times that this question was asked. What works for others might not work for you. Flash to you find one you like
Sent From Da Hood.
When I first started flashing I had the same questions and it is nice to be pushed in the right direction. Which gain it is all personal preference. Some roms run better than others but then some roms have the theming that some people are looking for. So my suggestion is read through some of them and the change logs look at some of the screenshots in the threads and flash it if you like what you see. Once you have flashed a couple times you won't hesitate to do it again and again and again to try the different ones there are. I think I have tried 7 or 8 different roms on my epic and 7 or 8 when I had my evo and I was constantly switching from one to the next to the next back to one I had previously and so on depending on the updates that had been applied and the different changes that were made. So try them all then go back to what you like. When you have found what you like stick with it until another version comes out with an update try it and see if you like it. It does get a little bit addicting. It is very hard to brick an epic because of the capabilities of flashing back using odin. So don't hesitate in flashing as many as you like.
Thanks everyone, I'll start trying some tonight.
Edit: ok I found one that looks promising but I have no idea how these modem things work. I never had to do that to install roms on my hero. Anyway, how do I install a modem?

I'd be interested to see how different it is. I liked your last version for the most part, but boot up time was way too long. Would be nice to see the additional apps/add-ons included so they don't have to be installed individually (or maybe provide them as a pack somehow?) In general, it's a great ROM though.

I posted yesterday about my girlfriend's EVO freezing up on her after i rooted and her pictures randomly disappearing. I want to install a new ROM on her phone to see if the issues will go away but I need help on choosing the best FroYo ROM that is fully functional. Particularly one that is clean of bloat and is pretty fast. I've searched around but haven't found anything that is as basic as what I'm looking for. I only see her on weekends so if something goes wrong I wont be there to fix it for her so that is the reason I need the best functioning ROM with the least issues.
P.S. I own a Fascinate so please bare with me I'm not familiar with EVO ROMs, Kernels etc...
If you want clean and simple. Frost Rom.
If you want more to a ROM you willl have to look through each thread as there are a ton of great roms...Mik, Warm, Calk, Azrael, Fresh...etc
best is just an opinion
my sense rom choice is Miks rom's
or CM6 CM7 is having gps troubles

CM7 gps issue is easily solved by doing dialing ##gpsclrx# in a sense rom to reset the gps.
My answer to the op, my opinion cleanest Rom that's fully functional is Cm7 nightly 6 or higher, of course they're 2.3.2 and nightly 11 is 2.3.3 not 2.2.1 like was asked.

If you download any nightly from build 6 and up, Wimax is implemented and working, I am currently running Nightly #11, Wimax works, GPS works(I had to use ##gpsclrx#), worked for me, but as they said doesn't work for everyone.
So basically If you want to load CM7 on her phone
1. Download the latest nightly http://mirror.kanged.net/nightly/supersonic/cm_supersonic_full-11.zip
2. Download gingerbread gapps http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110120-signed.zip
3. download mslreader from the market, and write the number down.
4. open the dialer and type ##44772579# (this may or may not make your gps work on gingerbread, but it doesn't hurt to do it anyway)
5. Input the msl number that you wrote down
6. the phone will reboot, let it come all the way back up
7. Reboot to recovery
8. (Do this step twice to be safe) Wipe Data, Cache, and Dalvik-Cache(located under advanced for clockworkmod)
9. Flash CM7
10. Flash Gapps before booting into CM7 (found this has had the most success for me)
11. Enjoy Gingerbread with MOAR GEEEEEE's
TheROM V0.14
So this rom is a new Froyo rom that I made. It is optimized for speed so it will be FAST! This rom also has a very small footprint. This is an alpha release, and there's still more speed optimizations to be done. This is currently my day to day rom just for the speed that you can achieve from this rom. The work done with porting froyo and making everthing work is not my work, and I couldn't imagine taking credit for it. As always wait for the sync notifier to disappear to get the full speed out of this rom.

I'll be giving this a whirl later tonight after I wake up (damn you 3rd shift).
I fell in love with the original Eris Lightning Bolt (Conap) because it was so fast back in the day when ROM's were fairly new.
I like the naming as well. "FroCookieYo" just doesn't sound right, plus the naming convention has been played out

I would say that any of the Froyo Metamorph themes would probably work with this Rom. More than likely though a flashable theme will give you some serious boot loop I'm only saying that because I haven't looked at the Rom yet to see if the framework is the same as any of the others.

I don't know I currently think we can use an update after all it is general you don't have to comment.
I tend to think you have two options right now. the 2.3.2 update roms IE CM7 and [BETA-2] 2.3.2 - XWJV1. both of which have there own downfalls. IE GPS doesn't work.
Or you can go with a 2.2 Rom like Bionix butter or frost. I'm currently going to look into Darky's Rom. All features work on these Roms.
Until we have a true 2.3.2 Rom those are you choices
I have made the most out of the time with updating Kernels you could look into those as well if you are twiddling you thumbs waiting for a stable 2.3.2
[BETA-2] 2.3.2 - XWJV1 is 100% stable for me so far. i had one weird sleep of death yesterday but havent had it rear its head again.
non working GPS to me does not equal "unstable"
unstable would be if the phone consistently locks up while sleeping, has random reboots, has lots of force close issues, etc.
I'm not sure what you mean by "old". All of the regular ROMs have had numerous updates (axura, bionix, trigger, darky's, etc....) old would be the people that necro like macnut or fusion.
You can go with any of the ROMs posted in the dev section along with any of the kernels. Just have to do some reading.

This is the FASTEST, MOST STABLE, MOST ENJOYABLE ROM i have ever used...and I have flashed EVERYTHING from CM7, to the Leaked Gingerbread 2.3.2 ROM, to the "old" bionix, Loki, Trigger, Arura, etc...
I flash my phone more then an 18 year old at mardi gras trying to get the most beads!
Just go to the development section and seek out the [ROM]'s. Most have dates in the heading. Then you can read what people are saying about them.
Personally, I like Bv1.3.1 with overstock. Smooth, fast, voodoo extras and stable.

nice ?
Sorry to be a noob on this, but Can you flash kernels over kernels in here safely? Or do I have to flash back to my original kernel first?

As long as the kernels are of the same breed then I haven't had a problem yet. Like voodoo to voodoo. (not too sure about OC or UV kernels) Best advice, use sgs kernel flasher from the market and back up your old one before switching. Also, be comfy with odin, just in case.
Kernel switching is about as simple as changing your underwear though.

I just went with the newer Trigger with Overstock and I'm liking it a lot. I usually stick with TW. roms but wanted to try something else.
Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.
You really can't go wrong with any of the roms we have for these phones in the dev section. I would suggest a few things before you start flashing. First, be sure you backup everything with Titanium Backup or MyBackup. You might want to also go into Clockwork and do a Nandroid backup just to be on the safe side. I also have free apps called Call Logs Backup and Restore and SMS Backup and Restore. I make backups of everything then I can flash away and not worry about losing anything. I flash a new rom almost ever other day and since I use my phone for work too I need to keep my data.
I know a lot of people here don't flash back to stock and just flash over the existing roms they have. I always flash back to stock then put the new rom on. I also don't have any of the problems that I see a lot of others having by doing it that way. It takes me 5-10 minutes more but I know it is right and stable when I am done. When I get the rom on that I wanted I go back into Titanium Backup and restore just the apps and data (Menu key/Batch/Restore missing apps with data). Do not do a full restore with the system data or it will cause you problems.
When you are done restoring reboot and you should be good to go.
samsung vibrant roms
it seems that most of the really good roms are for i9000, what about the Vibrant. I could not find any rom called Sweet Honey 1.4?
