I don't know why the dude isn't updating OP, but I've done this a few times with %100 success rate.

download the i9000 rom from the i9000 thread, download captivate kernel

Flash the i9000 rom (I did from miui but who knows), wait for install and let it finish.

Once its on the fugu screen, let it sit for a good minute or so..

Hold down buttons to go back into recovery, and flash captivate kernel

Let finish, reboot. Done.

Its worked every time foe me
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
Oh, and I formatted cache, system and data before installing anything
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
No
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
I'm Not UPDATING THE OP because

1.) It is my thread

2.) your taking extra steps, I already have the captivate kernel baked in to here...

3.) I have no time last few nights I have been up till 3 in the morning just doing stuff for yall, then trying to do my homework so i dont get in trouble at school...
[Captivate Android Development] VanThePimpMan:
Nope, Earth has stopped working.
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
Uhm, are you sure you are holding the power and volume down? You can't just press them. Press and hold them both at the same time.
[Captivate Android Development] cumanzor:
Yeah, got it. Bad timing on my part I guess.

The only thing left, other than the camera and Earth for the moment, is 3G. I got it to work the first time I flashed it, not I can't, even after the script. I'll keep playing around though...:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
Do you really have to be so condescending and rude? You are contributing nothing with your attitude.
[Captivate Android Development] NikAmi:
Stock homescreen?

Is anyone else thinking that they may ditch alternate homescreens and stick with the stock option shipped in ICS? I have been playing around with ICS for the day and I can't believe how good it is working. There are a few kinks to be worked out (e.g. my phone keeps freezing/shutting down while being charged), but the performance is outstanding. This release really flies even though I haven't overclocked my processor and the RAM usage is so much lower than GB. Switching between apps is so quick and smooth its like a river of melted butter. I think I'm in love. Good job Google and good job devs! Your work is so appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] g1ddy:
This worked. THANKS!
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
Try this:

Delete any APNs that you have at the moment and make a new one, but only fill in name as "ATT WAP" and APN as "wap.cingular".

[Captivate Android Development] goob1284:
I'm pretty sure Jesus lead the development team for ics. This thing is freaking amazing. I can't wait till we get the bugs fixed. And does anyone experience some lag? I over locked mine and it still doesn't seem right.. then again I had 1600Mhz before. Also how do we get rid of the keyboard notification? Thanks. And thank you very much for your time and effort in porting this ,you are a saint.
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
Forcing hardware acceleration helps, but I can't get rid of launcher lag (scrolling apps and widgets) otherwise I'm really not getting any lag.
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
UPDATE guys, There is going to be another release SOON!! Onecosmic has fixed video and GPS!!! it was fixed in the kernel, so we have to wait for Ytt3r to update our kernel!
[Captivate Android Development] goob1284:
Is it because I didn't flash back to stock? I was on nightly 181 with gb boot loaders so I just wiped everything's in recovery and flashed it over.
[Captivate Android Development] parnz:
contracts sync works, I can browse website youtube etc... via wifi but cannot install apps from market, any ideas?

Do I need to set APN?

@b-eock that great!!
[Captivate Android Development] :
This rom/port is moving crazy fast. Dear god, such great comments and it's only alpha! Drooling over this and CM9.
[Captivate Android Development] josemetallica:
thanks to all developer to make this happen is working amazing in my captivate
[Captivate Android Development] bgroins:
Thanks, these APN settings worked for me for 3G, not the OP link.
[Captivate Android Development] popfan:
I am having problems opening sdcard and the sdcard mount script is not working because there is no access to sdcard folder. It cannot see anything in it. I have fixed permissions and mounted sdcard internally, but nothing seems to work.
[Captivate Android Development] lowlymarine:
I'm not sure hardware acceleration is even enabled in this build. Some parts of the GUI seem more fluid than Gingerbread, but others are still pretty laggy. THe most obvious way to see that it isn't working, though, is to try to scroll a full desktop site like AnandTech in the browser and watch it stutter and lag like crazy. Compare that to Samsung Gingerbread with the fully hardware accelerated browser, which doesn't lag at all while scrolling. And checking "force hardware acceleration" doesn't seem to make any difference.
[Captivate Android Development] punpun214:
Wow guys this is amazing.. thanks for all the great work .. i am loving ics...
[Captivate Android Development] Twicebak3d:
That iPhone-esque home screen folder thing is actually pretty nice. Drag an icon atop another if you dont know what I'm talking about :P

EDIT: Zomg... you can drag the folders onto the dockbar!

Does the signal bar not working have anything to do with the fact that "status" under "about phone" doesn't show dBm info? It just stays at "0." I noticed this after installing a signal bar widget that works just fine, and shows a dBm value.

Also, I can't get the data usage monitor to work.

[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
Its not about being baked in the same package, its about getting this rom installed. So far there's at least 3 fixes I had to read through 40 pages to find. What exactly have you "done" that's required so much time? Are you a dev on this project?
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
This was the first thing I noticed also
[Captivate Android Development] TheSoaresan:
How does one force hardware acceleration? The force is strong in this one.

Also how do you open the cool recently opened apps tab from the home screen?

Sent from from ICS captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] nimper:
HW acceleration has to be enabled by the app devs.

Long press home button to bring up the recent apps.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
if for nothing else there is the existance of this thread which fosters the community involvement in working on solutions and helping others trying to get up in running. This is a port of an alpha build. Fixes and changes are flying in on a nearly hourly bassis. Creating a thread does not come with the requirement that the OP be updated instantly to make flashing easier for people who are too lazy to read and or search.

It is none of your business what he has done with his time. For his part he is doing all in his ability to make this available to the captivate users. If reading 40 pages is too much of an effort for you than move on, there are plenty of non alpha roms to choose from
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
That's pretty rude. Flashing a kernel isn't necessary to get this up and running. At least it's not for the majority of people. If it helped you get past your problem, that's great.

Although it's convenient to have some workarounds listed in the OP, it isn't mandatory. That's what the thread is for. You act like he forgot some key piece of information. You can't always put every possible workaround in the OP.
[Captivate Android Development] mwiz123:
Is there a video? or can someone make a video?
[Captivate Android Development] mikel.canovas:
I have a question. I'm on vacation but want to try this out very badly. Do you think I'll be able to stay on this for 4 days? I can still flash back to cm/miui right?
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
Anyone know how to get task managment? Like from holding home screen?
[Captivate Android Development] g1ddy:
Don't worry man. Haters gonna hate.

You go focus on your school stuff.

I got this working and I'm plenty satisfied for now. This is awesome.
[Captivate Android Development] nimper:
For every hater there are a hundred satisfied customers. 99% satisfaction rate ain't bad, eh?
[Captivate Android Development] hkk:
Press and hold of home button gives you a list of running apps, and you can swipe to kill.
[Captivate Android Development] Twicebak3d:
I've gone back and forth around five times now. I've been using it for about 8 hours straight now and it's going smooth, although, I can't comment on battery life as I'm keeping my phone plugged in. You said you're on vacation, so if you do flash, keep in mind that the camera doesn't work.

Sent from a bowl of cappy chip ice cream.
[Captivate Android Development] hkk:
You certainly can go back to cm, if you have to provided you have the files needed :) Youll have to reinstall all your apps on cm again though.

The things that aren't working right now are

Camera doesn't work

Gps works intermittently

Tibu doesn't work

Home button vibrate doesnt work (of course not a big deal)

Haven't played around too much yet, but that's all I could find.

For 3G, just create a new apn entry with wap.cingular.

B-eock and any others who put in effort into ths, thanks a bunch.
[Captivate Android Development] popfan:
If the kernel creator for ICS could get with kernel creator of the CORN kernel,mtcarey, I bet his new fix that he added in 5.05 for TiBu would work for ICS.

---------- Post added at 09:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 AM ----------

OH, forgot to post this. I flashed this over an I897 rom, and it worked, but I lost most of sdcard. I only had 4 GB of space and it could not detect or get any files that were on the sdcard folder. I am guessing that we have to go from an I9000 rom(JVT - like mentioned in the I9000 ICS thread)????
[Captivate Android Development] unknownyello:
did you apply the "enable sdcard" from OP?
[Captivate Android Development] rsx19:
where is are the on screen buttons?
[Captivate Android Development] devz0r:
My experience:

Camera doesn't work

GPS doesn't work, but it can sometimes find where I am in Maps based on Wi-Fi it seems. Haven't tried navigation.

Tibu works fine

Home button doesn't vibrate with a single press, but with a hold to see recent apps, it vibrates. Not a big deal as you said though.
[Captivate Android Development] nimper:
What do you need them for? Cappy has soft buttons already.
[Captivate Android Development] rsx19:
for fun? for the feeling of ICS? why do you seem so mad
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
I know I read that they disappear for phones that have buttons. I don't know what you can manually make them appear... I never saw an option.
[Captivate Android Development] unknownyello:
you can look into this.

[Captivate Android Development] nimper:
I'm not mad, they just are not necessary on our phones. Having them on there is a waste of screen space.
[Captivate Android Development] popfan:
Yep, and tried to enable internal sdcard in the options. I was using script manager to find the files and when it was looking at /mnt/sdcard/ it said it was forbidden. I evened chmod the folder 777.

AnD Bluetooth doesn't turn on.
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
There are nicer ways of making your point.
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
How about we go back on subject instead of fussing??? .... Anyone know how to get task manager?
[Captivate Android Development] nimper:
Perhaps, but critical thought should be encouraged in civil discourse.

Case in point:

This was already answered. Long press the home button. You can swipe programs away to close them.

:confused: hao 2 use this Droid 4.0.1 gais???????????//// halp me :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] rahlquist:
Fine in full automated mode?

I have found that if you try to restore an app that's not available to you in the market, that it will hang TIBU. Examples of these for me are tasker, package buddy, paypal, the dealmap, Tweetdeck. These do not show in the market and if I use TIBU to try to restore them either manually or automated it fails and hangs.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
What do you mean not available to you in the market?

Herp derp Captivate XDA Premium.
[Captivate Android Development] poolemit:
i flashed this about 12 hours ago. since then, it has restarted on its own at least twice. when it happened, the display turned extremely washed/tinted followed by a restart. during the first time, the phone was being charged, the second time it wasn't.

anyone else?
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
It's happening to me too, I noticed with Tweetdeck. I checked the web market and it says it's not compatible with any of my devices. It's why I flashed back for the time being.

Possibly an issue because of the OS version being reported to the Market? I initially thought it was because of the device model being reported... but I was listed as an I9000, which Tweetdeck should certainly be compatible with.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
i agree with this guy. your OP is lacking a lot of info that would dismiss half the questions being asked. stop being a ****..."its my thread" all your doing is keeping us updated on other peoples work.
[Captivate Android Development] Twicebak3d:
I've been on it 12-14 and I've not had this happen.

[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Well that's a crock. Why wouldn't you want to be able to mount even the internal storage filesystem as a USB mass-storage device? Especially since that's been a feature all along??? :mad:

Not that I'm likely to ever buy a phone without removable storage, but I'm fighting the fight for everyone else too and respect that they'd want (to keep) the feature as well.

Well, that doesn't test 3G, only data. I can get web pages to show up when 3G isn't working but EDGE is.

On a different note... what isn't working currently (as of A6)? I've gathered GPS, camera... Perhaps a good section to add to the original post... ;)

Anyhow, excited on the progress being made here and will be following this thread closely... thanks to all working on this. :)
[Captivate Android Development] goob1284:
Alright, I'm sorry buy you people need to freaking stop. This is how devs freaking leave and do not add anything new. If you have questions, just ask. People, kindly answer. There is no such thing as a stupid question cause that person doesn't know what the answer is. The dev obviously put so much effort into this, so let him have some free time, he deserves that right no? And to resolve all these issues, if any one wants to helped out, we can create a new thread to answer all the questions so we could possibly keep this thread clean and used if there are any new changes or bugs. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
i agree with u but he hasn't "dev'd" anything.
[Captivate Android Development] Twicebak3d:
Home button haptic feedback, GPS, Bluetooth, YouTube video, camera, and I can't get AVIs, mp4s, or mkvs to play.

There are fixes to 3g, calendar sync, and voice search, so I wouldn't call those "not working."

I don't find HW acceleration to be making a difference, either.

[Captivate Android Development] shane9b3:
Agreed, if you can't see that there is link in the OP to the I9000 OP (where all the dev work is happening) and all the guidelines for install are then stay out of an Alpha thread.

Big thanks to B-oeck for his work in making us a flashable captivate rom, it does take his personal time to do it, and he has no obligation to post it here for us to use. So thanks again for letting us use your hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Someone should just volunteer to make an updated "FAQ" and keep it updated for beock to put it in the OP.

Got this up and running early this morning!...aside from what is already mentioned as not working I haven't any other issues, it seems to be a really, really nice ROM with a beautiful and intuitive UI!...thanks to b-eock for his help and work in making this available to us cappy users, and all the I9000 devs for getting this off the ground and functioning so quickly!

[Captivate Android Development] mastermind278:
I do agree it does seem to run pretty well so far. As you said, visually it looks like MIUI GB, but it does have the ICS framework so it does have some brand-new sweets to it.

For those that want to see a quick preview I did a small video showing it off a bit... again pretty much looks like MIUI GB!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRSCJ6Kc5S4
[Captivate Android Development] shinobi26:
You should download the Black Ice theme to get a better ICS look (including lockscreen) if you want it. I'm running it now and it looks pretty decent. But I guess that's a little off topic :D

You have to remind yourself that this is ion Alpha stage, not even Beta(not that I dont LOVE this). There WILL be issues, that can take time to work out. IMO I would wait until you have time to commit to working thru the issues youself
