Hey, was just wondering if anyone has tried to flash an I9000 (lets say JPK) ROM with the Captivate 2.6.32.9 Froyo Kernel? if I can run the vibrant ROMs on my captivate with some file pushing could this work well enough for you guys to fix the rotation and audio logic on the I9000 Froyo ROMs? just asking, I would try if I had a Vibrant. I can throw something together for someone to flash but I would be skeptical to ask someone else to try without myself having tested it. If this has been addressed already then I suck at searching the threads and please kindly let me know and I will rid of this post.
We would end up in the same place as before.
Lack of kernel support for the hardware.

I got my vibrant running 2.2 in early December unfortunately I don't know what rom I am running. I have been wanting to install black froyo theme but it says not compatible with Jk6 I really am hesitant about flashing a rom so on figure I start with a theme and get comfortable but i really don't know what rom is on this phone. I know it was flashed before I got the phone and if i do get any rom I need wifi calling and all i know is this runs it decently stable so I am happy with it since I need it.
This is what it says under about
Firmware 2.2
Baseband T959UVJK6
Kernel 2.6.32.9
Build number FROYO. UVJK6
So I really don't know of I am compatible with black froyo that is the one for non Nero listed under themes
On the sd it seems there are multiple zip files with rom names so this makes it even more difficult here is what's on the sd
ObsidianV5.Zip
Fusion12_stock.Zip
StockJK6_v2.zip
That seems to be it. Yes i am rooted and I did titanium back up last night I feel like I am getting a little more audacious to finally do this and maybe sometime soon flash a new rom I just do. That's want to lose my wifi calling and is there way to get the phone exactly the way it is now if I screwed up? I been reading up 2 noob guides and it doesn't seem hard at all but i figure I start small. Thanks for any help in advance

Just upgrade your modem. I know you are hesitant but it's relatively easy and there are better modems out from the JK6.

pick one and go to town. I can personally verify it working on JL1,4,and 5.
why not just DL Nero v3? Then you know its compatible..
Nero3 does not have wifi calling. I absolutely need that on my rom.
Blizzard you can confirm that blackfroyo is working on your JI5 or you mean wifi calling on JI5? sorry my eyes are crossing here.
I am still trying to get a handle on what has what effect. Id flash Nero3 in a heartbeat if I knew wifi calling worked on it. Same with Axura but it doesnt look like its offered on either one
Hey,
I've tried almost all 2.2.1 ROMs now, frost, darky, atriarc, loki yet on none of these ROMs could I get the aGPS to work. It works flawlessly on 2.2 ROMs otherwise... What could be wrong?
I've tried faster fix, gingerbread.zip and sgps.zip from the forums, etc. already..

then go back to 2.2... i don't see much change between 2.2 and 2.2.1 since we had voodoo on 2.2
but w/e
My gps was perfect when I was on Frost, after flashing sgps. Have you tried the hardware fix?

I have Simply Honey 2.5 with GPS fix plus there is another forum here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878970
This one has made my GPS best its ever been and probably best it will ever be considering it is Samsung..
Well, I did that immediately when I noticed that the 2.2.1 ROM isn't locking on... I had just replaced back the FFC mod camera and then I was planning to run 2.2.1 so that I can benefit from its camera firmware. So I thought maybe I screwed up the contact.
But that didn't happen. Once i flashed 2.2 back, i got a GPS lock in 15-17 seconds on every cold start.
Installed the sGPS.zip and Gingerbread.zip too, alternatively, and together, also done an ODIN and then fresh install, but none of it helps... Tried fasterfix too for India...
Anyone else facing this problem ???
Is there anyway to mod the fascinate to install front facing camera? I know vibrant has the mod available...why not for fascinate?
This has been discussed several times before... it works on the vibrant because it simply has the room to do and, and it is GSM so the i9000 software works for it. Its just not possible on the fascinate.

That's my thread I was hoping the mod was possible but i guess not...
its not possible...several people tried in the fall on one forum (coulda been here i cant recall)
Guys I really need some help pls! I'm not new to androids and have pretty decent knowledge of flashing and the general consensus on how androids work. However this is my first sgs2 phone trying to install galnet miui. I have failed consistently, as I have probably done 20 full wipes and installs of this rom and just can't get it right. I don't know where else to look and ask. I really like this rom and here are my problems. Everything installs just fine. Boots up fine. I just cannot make any phone calls!! I can rcv calls but when I answer it they cannot hear me. I've tried everything from different kernels to every different way of installing. I tried flashing the radios but it'll give me an error when I try to flash. When I flash a new radio with the miui.us fom it works fine. Also the 4 buttons on the phone only the home button and menu button seem to work. I cannot use the back button and search button. Are these purposely disabled? Please guys I'm begging you haha it's so damn annoying. I've posted on the galnet forums and it's dead over there. So if anyone can give me some insight. By the way I'm coming from an atrix 4g that was running oc/uv kernel at 1.4 ghz and cm7 and the sgs2 is just miles ahead! Thanks again guys (for listening to my whining in) advance.
By the way am i downloading the correct version of the rom? On their website I'm downloading sgs2 i900. I don't see anything else for our I777. I figured this would work as I saw the locked thread in here for the galnet rom.
This is the I9100 forum, you're in the wrong place and probably flashing stuff for the wrong device.
Sup all,
I am somewhat familiar with rooting. I rooted several tmobile g2's in the past and loaded them with CM7 and what not. However, I am having some trouble with my Tmobile Vibrant.
I recently got my phone back from samsung and it has gingerbread 2.3.6 on it. I was just wondering, how i could root the phone and flash ICS roms? All the guides i have seen are for 2.2 or 2.1 and I really dont want to brick my phone again. I don't know why working with my vibrant has been so frustrating but i would really just like to know what to do step by step.
Thanks for reading and for any help you guys provide, I really appreciate it.
Umm, I would be very interested to know what your "About Phone" says (since you can't get a copy of the build.prop w/o being rooted). Especially the model number, ROM description and Kernel. Samsung does not have an "official" GB ROM running for the Vibrant. The GB ROMs that we have are mainly ports and kangs and have and will never come from Sammy.
I would suggest you make sure you have a T959 and not another model and also double check the above before you do anything. Once you do that, come back and let us know and we will help you further. But until then, I would say you run a risk of screwing it up if it is the wrong model number and try to flash a T959 ROM on a T959v or I-9000 phone.
I'm betting you have a galaxy s 4g (aka t959v). This is now the wrong forum for you to be looking in, since we are the vibrant section.

Probably have better luck figuring it out in the Vibrant 4g forums.
