If you have a Captivate, follow these simple steps:
Do not download it
Do not flash it
If you fail to follow either of the aforementioned steps follow this one
Do not whine that it doesn't work
The device is yours, if you want to take a gamble on it then by all means go for it but you are responsible for the damage done.
We don't want to hear about it, we don't care. You were warned and did it to yourself.

i agree i should not flash froyo, but i want it so bad, i'm having a guy from work come over later (he's the computer specialist). he said he's flashed hundreds of phones at work, and it shouldn't be a problem.
thanks for the heads up tho, if he messes up i can blame him!
I concur. Why froyo I ask.LOL. It's still crippled. Eclair still better performing os. And it will fugg your galaxy. In fact friend bricked his vibrant. Laughed at his azz during dinner. I wait. CM6 is on the way. I will take a better performing captivate any day over a brick and another trip to the store.

They won't read the other posts and they won't read this one. Doesn't hurt to try I guess; hopefully the thread title will be an attention grabber

I have flashed hundreds of phones as well and let me make this explicitly clear to you....IT DOES NOT WORK ON THE CAPTIVATE!
We have no working 2.2 kernel for the Captivate and the International Galaxy S kernel DOES NOT WORK on our devices.
Incase you didn't get the hint....IT DOES NOT WORK.
Good luck

Doesnt the intl galaxy kernel work, just that the screen is 90degrees off and some of the hardware buttons are reversed?
I'm not going to even begin to mess with that froyo.
@ OP
What do you mean "It does not work on the Captivate"? Sure it has some bugs like swapped buttons and if you enable screen rotation it will rotate 90° and there isn't a big advantage over the stock I9000 ROM but it DOES work.

In the context of working without issues. Not for nothing but I don't want to see all the newbs that read a post saying it *works* flash the rom and then come in here in a panic wanting us to tell them how to fix it.
So by saying it doesn't work, it doesn't work.

Wes' 2 months which led to this pic. theres basically something w/ clockwork recovery thats making it tough for devs to flash it because it bricks the phone.. if u ask questions like this in a dev forum, u might as well pour gasoline on urself bcuz u will be flamed by the masses LOL no offense bruh

Is it possible for us to start working on a port of it now that we have a functional Clockwork Recovery from Koush?
Edit:
$100 currently pooled for the person who gets fully functional CyanogenMod working on the Tab. (T-Mobile)
If you'd like to make any other contributions to this pool, post it in this thread and we'll get a rough idea of how much money we can send someones way once they get this thing functional and easy to install.
Yep, go ahead and get started on it.
It's unlikely that CM6 will come to the Tab any time soon (if ever...), as they are JUST getting some early betas out for the SGS.
The work required to get it working on any new phone/tablet is immense, and therefor I doubt it'll come to the SGT simply because they don't have the time.... or the Tabs.
Well we have Clockwork and I believe we have the source (right?), so..
Money is a good motivator. I'm willing to donate $100 to the first person who gets a working beta of CM ported to the Tab.
Cyan 6 will be perfect for the Tab I will be the 1st Modify Cyan for an Android Tab.

yes thats the same way i am dealing with those individuals!
and i dont think it will be easy to port CM6.1 to the Tab because we would need to rewrite most of the apps because of the higher resolution!
Its gonna be a bit more difficult than porting over. Youll have to rewrite most of the xmls and completely redo a lot of the graphics.

I dunno if straying away from the stock Rom is the best idea. Right now as we have it, everything works. Going AOSP will probably break everything. I think its best to take a stock Rom and modify it. I'd like if the menus were black rather then white, but that's just a themeing issue.

Its not a case of screen size, although that would be an issue with porting, its more like 'who on the CM team has a Galaxy device?' I havent heard of a release for any of the Galaxy devices (i dont check often but its usually big news if they expand the phones theyre working on)

I'm going to go get the evo this weekend because Verizon is or has been to exspensive. I've been doing the proper research for root and I think I got that down for the most part. I gotta say I'm pretty impressed with the amount of roms you guys have compared to the dx. I'm addicted to flashing roms which is very frustrating when it comes to the dx as there is such lack of roms for it, oh well who fukin cares cry your self a river build a bridge and get over it..so here's my question . Can I flash different roms over top of each other??? Like for instance from cm7 to whatever rom. I know you have to wipe data and stuff already. Is there anything important I need to know??? Thanks

As you can see, we have our share of trolls here on the EVO side of XDA but you should be used to that by now coming from DX. These low-lifes are rampant on these forums, just ignore them and you will be ok...
Regarding your question. Technically, if you are flashing a newer version of a rom like say going to CM7 2.2 coming from 2.1, technically you do not have to wipe everything, just dalvic cache but if you are flashing a completely new rom then it's best to completely wipe everything. There is a zip called "format all" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785271
somewhere in the OP in this link, and you can just flash that zip before you go to a new rom and it automatically wipes absolutely everything for you, so you won't have to worry.
I highly recommend you use the format all zip before every rom update or change, just to be safe. And make sure you create a nand backup before hand.
Welcome to the dark side! I'm sure you will love your evo!
P.S if you're looking for roms to try out, particularly AOSP, I highly recommend MIUI. For a sense rom, go with any of Calkulins.
Let me know if you need anything else.

I'm telling you man, do not get into any kind of conversations with some of these folks. Their goals in life are to literally be useless. Ignore them and just do what you gotta do. Don't let anyone alter your decision.
Disregard what the morons are saying about Sprint. Sprint is by far the best value in wireless services. The amount of money you'll be saving will more than make up for any tiny nuisances you'll find with Sprint. Besides, you have 30 days to try out to see if you like it. If you feel it's not worth it to you, just leave and go back... no questions asked.
The EVO is kinda old news now. I would wait for the next big dual core android with AMOLED action. And the number of roms for EVO actually is not all that impressive. Most of them are regurgitations of others. There are a couple of good sense options (although I think rooted stock sense is best) and then there is cyanogen.... which is the best there is IMO... And now it has the extra G.... not that the 4G has been very useful to me.
I average 1.5 to 1.6 Mbps down and 600 to 800 Kbps up.
That ain't bad for 3G.

Yep me too. Occasionally it will be really slow but that only lasts for minutes.
@OP- Answer to your original question- Yes, you can flash ROM after ROM but you need to wipe in between flashing. One of our awesome devs Calkulin made a script that formats everything completely that is an awesome tool to use before flashing. Makes for a good clean install. You can find it in his mods thread in the theme section.

So today my brother and mother both got phone upgrades.
My mom got the Motorola Photon (which comes unlocked) and my brother got an EVO Shift. I too have the Shift, along with a close friend of mine. Both my friend's and my Shift have been rooted and are running CM7 with the x99 kernel.
When I was looking at my brother's Shift, I noticed that it was still running Sense 2.0 (I believe) along with Android 2.2. It was not forced to the 2.3 update yet.
At the moment, it is off and charging.
Hopefully when I turn it back on, it'll remain 2.2 and should be rootable.
That said, just made this thread to announce that my brother got the Shift from Sam's Club ($25) with Android 2.2, and not 2.3.
I should be able to root this right? Why didn't his come with 2.3 or will it upgrade when I turn it back on?
Personally, I rooted mine via the command line, and my friend's with the GUI tool.
If it was 2.2 when you turned it off, it will be 2.2 when you turn it on.. You would have to manually accept the update. As far as why it's still on froyo, pure luck! Tell him to count his blessings and root.

It was partially luck, partially part of the policy in stores. FIFO, First In First Out for the store stock. That Sam's club might not move a lot of Shifts. So there stock is older, like crump said count your blessings . No it will not auto update. But just to make sure no one does anything dumb. Go into menu-settings-System updates-HTC software update , then uncheck Scheduled check. It will ask you if your sure you want to turn it off, yes you want to turn it off. This way no one does anything dumb, like take a prompted update. Also, my advice Root it .
AND repeat tell him not to accept any OTA updates!

well if your going to accept the ota updates why are you on this site then since you cant root it? but there are awesome sense roms like Mik in my opinion is the best. cant stand CM7 mainly due to the lock screen, camera app and i enjoy rosie very much on sense.

Hah I like this guy! My main reason that I don't run CM& or any of the other AOSP variations is that dam goofy lock screen! either version the spinny one or the one you pull across,up or down the screen EEEWWWWW! Just Havin fun but seriously I don't care for it!
Well no matter what peoples Rom choices are, I'm sure they'll find something here on XDA .

I will say, when i get my shift, i will accept an OTA, but i would most likely manually update it. I love gingerbread 2.3.3 with sense 2.1. I thing its better than CM7. I think CM7 is good, but its not for me, i like sense over any custom rom. Many people will disagree, even try to fight with me, im just gonna say it now and get it over with, i get it, you think sense stinks, idc, dont bother starting anything with me. I wont take it kindly.

I get the benefit of being rooted and using GB via a custom rom from here at XDA. I get way more usage from being perm rooted than I ever would accepting an OTA upgrade and then only being limited to temp root right now. But whatever floats your boat. But I for one just don't see the logic of your statement.

I see what your saying, and there is a place for me on here, i know a lot about the evo shift on 2.3.3, and if someone gets a shift from sprint (which comes with 2.3.3 now) i can help them. I am just gonna have to decide when i get the phone.

There are 4 variations of unlocking your phone with CM7, and if you don't like those. Try Widgetlocker.
Hey guys, I'm bringing this thread back up because my brother's phone now can't make calls/texts or receive calls/texts
His data still works (Internet, etc)
It started last Wednesday.
Should I unroot, then call Sprint, or what?
Also, just *2 to call Sprint and have them fix it?
Thanks.
