[Samsung Captivate Glide] AlaskaLinuxUser:
No problem, we are all new at this once, right?

First Step: Downloads!

TWRP:

ROM:

Here is a matter of preference. If you want the latest *working* version, you can upgrade to 5.0, but you lose the camera. I presume you want the camera to work, so I suggest Bubor's CM11 for KitKat. There are other good roms too, like PAC and SediRom, but we will start with Bubor's CM11.

ODIN:

Second Step: Prepare.

I am presuming that you are using a Windows computer. If you are using a Linux computer, I can tell you what to do also, but these instructions are for Windows. I am also presuming that you have an external SD card in your phone, if you do not, go buy one and put it in your phone.

Unzip the Odin304.zip by right clicking on it and say unzip/extract, etc. If your Windows does not have this option, you need to download a program like winzip or 7zip so you can unzip this file. If you need those programs, they can be googled and downloaded.

Third step: Further preparation.

Turn on your phone and plug it into a usb cord and plug the usb cord into your computer. If you are using Windows, it will try to find drivers for the phone. It should be automatic and just work. If it does not, then you need the drivers, which are here:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/0up21ccc9gajwjv/Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.14.0.exe

*If you downloaded this file, just double click it like a program, it should open and install drivers for your phone. Do not do this unless your computer cannot find drivers for your phone!

Fourth step: Charge your phone.

Plug in your phone and FULLY charge it. ALL the way to 100% CHARGED. No exceptions. No shortcuts. Do it. Then UNPLUG YOUR PHONE AND TURN IT OFF.

Fifth step: Put TWRP on your phone.

a. Your phone should now be unplugged and off. Open the ODIN folder that you unzipped earlier and double click on ODIN to open the program.

b. Click on the PDA button ( you and I both know that your phone is not a PDA, this is not a typo ) and it will open a browser. Find the twrp-2.8.4-for_odin.tar.md5 file and select it. It should now fill in the blank line next to PDA with this info.

c. WHILE HOLDING THE UP VOLUME BUTTON ON YOUR PHONE, press and hold the power button. When you see "SAMSUNG" you can release the power button, but KEEP HOLDING THE UP BUTTON, untill you see a yellow triangle and warning notice. If you hold too long, that is okay as it will take you straight to the download mode with the green android that says "ODIN" at the top and "Downloading" in the middle. If you got stopped at the yellow warning/triangle, press up again to go to download mode.

d. Plug your phone into the usb, and the usb into your computer.

e. In the Odin program, press start.

You should now see a serries of verbage going by on the left, at the top a green bar may fill in, and hopefully, in the end it says "success" or "pass". Your phone should reboot all by itself. If ODIN says fail, ask for further instructions. If passed, close Odin.

Sixth step: Put your CM11 files on your phone.

Your phone should have rebooted and looks just like it did before, now powered on, and in your stock Ice Cream Sandwich firmware. As with any file transfer, plug your USB into the phone and computer. Drag the CM11 files to the phone. Anywhere will do, but if you have an external SD card in your phone, I recommend you put it there.

Seventh Step: Boot into TWRP.

a. Turn off your phone.

b. Unplug the USB.

c. HOLD THE DOWN VOLUME BUTTON and press the POWER BUTTON. When you see "Samsung" release the POWER BUTTON, but keep holding the VOLUME DOWN BUTTON. At the top of the screen, white letters should say something like "entering recovery".

d. When you see "Team Win Recovery Project" release the down volume button.

Eighth step: Make a backup!

a. Press "Backup" button on screen.

b. Check all checkboxes (system, cache, data, boot, Android Secure)

c. Press "Storage: sdcard (xxxx mb)" bar.

d. Select "External_sd" to choose to backup to your external sd card.

e. Slide the swipe bar to the right to backup. This will take a few minutes, with progress bar.

NOTE: if the screen dims, when you touch it, you will see a TWRP lock icon, swipe right to unlock it.

f. When backup is completed, it will say "reboot system", do not click that. Click the "home" icon in the lower left corner.

g. Click the "Wipe" button.

h. Swipe right to factory reset.

i. Click the "home" icon in the lower left corner.

j. Click the "install" button.

k. At the top, click on the "Storage: sdcard (xxxx mb)" bar.

l. Select "External_sd"

m. choose the cm-11-20160126-UNOFFICIAL-i927.zip

n. When that is done, click on the "reboot system" button.

The system will reboot. You should now see CM11's boot screen. The first boot takes a bit of time.

Ninth step: Thank Bubor.

a. Log into XDA.

b. Go to http://xdaforums.com/captivate-glide/development/dev-cm-11-0-t2802184

c. Slap every thanks button that is for a post by Bubor untill it tells you that you cannot slap any more thanks buttons (that is only 8 thanks per day).

Tenth step: Enjoy your phone!

....I think you know how to do that.....
