This was super easy.

I first obtained the Froyo .Tar file from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905042

Then I installed it via Odin with a 512 Pit. The 512.pit file can be obtained from samfirmwares.com

After I got it booted I Rooted with Super 1 click http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

After that I installed Supercurio's Voodoo 5 kernel from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=870760

Edit:

if you need to change your APN settings to get 3G data working again instructions for doing so are here http://androidforums.com/823226-post4.html

again I used the 512 pit and put the kernel in PDA.

Worked like a champ
[Captivate General] IamSonoma:
Cool. Are you on AT&T or rogers?

How does it compare to jpy 2.2.1?
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
I'm on AT&T. So far it's seems smooth, it definitely needed the voodoo lagfix though it was very very sluggish without it.
[Captivate General] IamSonoma:
At&t for me too.

Big questions - gps and internet.

How are they and how do they compare.

I may give it a shot later but I remember how limited jj4 and ji6 was.
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
GPS gave me a 10 meter lock outside in about 10 seconds.
[Captivate General] Illidine:
Could somebody give me the .pit download website,I can't find it at samfirmware.com
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
looks like they've moved it I found it here http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm
[Captivate General] gunnyman:

Hey gunnyman.... my fellow sprint convert.... ;)

I think I might give this a try. Thanks for the instructions!!

I discovered a pretty major bug this morning. The Rogers release has the internal SD card bug. It won't mount on my computer.
[Captivate General] AvengerBB:
Mine is working? I get two drives when mounting.
[Captivate General] crazililazn:
What about tracking? Locks have never been a problem with the Captivate GPS. Its always the tracking (at least with my phone)
[Captivate General] gunnyman:

Hi, can some one Please post o directme to a little bit more detailed guide on how to do this! I'm just a little bit lost here trying to update my AT&T Captivate using this method as is the first time doing it.

Thanks!

Edit: I did it and everything Went Just Fine!!!!! Thanks!!
[Captivate General] kdwolf85:
I found that when I mounted internal sd as mass storage my pc (windows 7x64) it would show as a cd rom drive. If I put it in media player mode it worked fine.
[Captivate General] eyekyu:
def gonna try this out, im gonna have to flash back to stock since im runnin a custom rom?
[Captivate General] Pinepig:
You shouldn't have to, when you use odin it pretty much starts from scratch, do a master clear first to be sure.
[Captivate General] eyekyu:
i keep gettin an error while in recovery mode, saying it cant validate the package...

anyone got ideas?
[Captivate General] darkmeth:
How about keeping it stock?

Awesome! Thank you for sharing.. What would be the easiest way to install the Rogers version on a stock AT&T Captivate without rooting or adding the lag fix?

Thanks again
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
Just flash it with Odin, but it's VERY sluggish without the lag fix installed.
[Captivate General] kingwp1:
require backup?

Does this delete any of your apps or media files?
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
Apps yes, and you MIGHT have to format your internal SD but the external is unaffected
[Captivate General] exparrot:
I am currently using the JI6 2.2 Froyo that was installable via Odin, and I've waited for an improved 2.2 to come along.

I didn't want to jump through the hoops required to restore unsigned recovery so I haven't tried any experimental roms/kernals via Clockworkmod.

As an ATT user, not Rogers, is there any reason NOT to do this?
[Captivate General] delugeofspam:
As long as you add your apn and delete the Rogers apps, no.

Unless you're waiting for the Armani release.

[Captivate General] kingwp1:
Which pit do you use? I see 4 of them for 2.2.
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
Quoted myself
[Captivate General] kingwp1:
What I mean is which of these did you use:

I9000UGJK3

I9000DTJP5

I9000UGJL2

I9000BVJJPD

Sorry, I'm new to the Odin scene.
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
Those aren't PIT files go to bottom under the heading Flash Tools choose the 512.pit

Doh! That's what I get for not reading the whole page. Thanks!
[Captivate General] integrasaurus:
Newbie here, please correct me if i'm wrong.

I have a Rogers i896 upgraded to 2.2 via Kies, rooted with Super 1 Click

Use Voodoo Kernel 5 from povided link and flash with Odin3 (where does the .tar file go?)

Do I need to flash a different modem? Or would the stock Rogers modem work?

Will this affect my GPS performance?

Thanks in advanced!
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
The tar file goes under pda. It's just a kernel so GPS and modem aren't affected.
[Captivate General] integrasaurus:
Thanks for the answer gunnyman!

Found a very simple way to flash/backup kernels. SGS kernel flasher from the market.

Voodoo kernel flashed and very snappy. Scores 1400+ on quadrant.
[Captivate General] darkmeth:
Well, I followed the steps, it downloaded successfully but I couldn't get past the recovery screen.. Dbdatabase error and wouldn't install.. I was flashing from stock 2.1.. Any thoughts?
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
You mean after it installs in Odin?

I had that and had to format my SD from the recovery menu, then it booted
[Captivate General] kingwp1:
Gunnyman, thanks for this guide!

I got froyo up and running with no problems, and didn't even have to format my sd. Now, I'm working on removing the Rogers' bloatware. Any idea how to remove their startup screen?
[Captivate General] silvertag:
I don't think you can. It's part of the ramdisk files if i'm not mistaken.
[Captivate General] kingwp1:
I think it'd be something like this...

[Captivate General] k-0s2:
Hey I have a I896 that I can't upgrade with keis. If I oden this to my phone will I get the ATT load screen? or will it be exactly like I did a keis upgrade?
[Captivate General] ewingr:
Anyone seeing any of the bugs reported in this thread?

Interesting. I thought I see more action in this thread. Maybe most people flashing do so with the DEV roms.

Gunny...I think I saw you in some of the ROM threads. Did you flash some other ROMS?

What do you think of this compared to some of them?
[Captivate General] ltran882:
sorry i am a newbie, but can you show me on how to do this step by step. I tried to go to download mode but it didnt success by holding 3 combination buttons Up + Down + Power. Then it shows nothing on the screen since I plug the cable in except the empty battery icon
[Captivate General] integrasaurus:
3 button is RECOVERY mode! To enter DOWNLOAD mode, press and hold volume -/+ then plug in the usb!
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
After I ran into the bug with my SD card not mounting I flashed back to stock and loaded Phoenix. I'm still here to help others who want to try this though.

Frankly, the only difference I see between most of the roms out there is all aesthetics and stability. I didn't really run this one long enough (about a day) to give it a fair shake though.
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
If you Odin the image on a rogers phone you won't see the AT&T logo
[Captivate General] m37h:
That's not true:

I have stock Rogers 2.1 -> Updated to 2.2 using Kies -> rooted -> Odin-ed this Kernel -> AT&T is baacck!

So far my only complaint by doing this is my internal SD is recognized as CD ROM (i.e. read only) when I hook the phone to the computer, but that problem disappear if I do that while in recovery mode (the red voodoo recovery). Anyone has a fix for that problem? (BTW I don't know if this problem caused after I put the voodoo on or after I updated to 2.2).

I will try the GPS today and report back.

Edit: Just re-read this thread, someone posted about unable to mount the internal SD using the Rogers 2.2, is that the same problem that I have?
[Captivate General] richuwo11:
I updated using the exact steps in this thread. And I didn't get the internal SD bug. I have an ATT branded phone running on the Rogers network.

I was previously running the leaked ATT 2.2 rom. I flashed back to stock ATT 2.1 and then flashed the Rogers 2.2 using Odin and then installed the voodoo kernel. Everything is working great so far. Not experiencing any of the bugs listed in the Rogers bugs thread. Scored ~1500 in quadrant.

I also did the GPS fix from another thread in XDA and it seems to be locking quicker and more accurate than before.
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
Ok the Kernel puts AT&T's logo in. my mistake.

Also the problem you are having with the SD card is what I was talking about.
[Captivate General] NISMOFO:
Excellent update, I'm glad I read through this....no SD card mounting is definitely a deal breaker.
[Captivate General] gunnyman:
I'm now on Cognition 3.01 which is based on this Rogers release. It's nice and smooth and I haven't found any show stopper bugs.
[Captivate General] m37h:
Ok, GPS works awesome, lock very quick and turn by turn also works fine. This is a very good ROM, but will now try Cog 3.02 ... need fix for my flashing ROM addiction.
[Captivate General] delugeofspam:
I used this ROM just fine for days before flashing the latest Cognition and had no SD card issues while using stock Rogers. at&t i897 here.

Hi all.

Bit the bullet and just s-off'ed my trusty desire.

im interested in changing the systems partion for more storage of apps, I was starting to get the storage full logo even with all my apps on the sd!

So, reading up ive found that there are certain system layouts that are for certain Roms. ive looked at the ones on the Alpharev site and was wondering if anyone has used these with CM 6.1.1? If so which?

Many thanks in advance.

I was following the guide here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853950

And everything perfectly, but when I had to boot into recovery mode, the phone would not start up, at all. No combination of buttons works. I tried taking out the battery and still no luck. I've read up and down multiple threads here and nothing is working. This seems really difficult and I would much rather avoid bringing the phone back. None of the buttons are responsive... so I can't start it up. Any suggestions?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrod33084:
You tried flashing the wrong rom. That rom is for a bell i9000. I believe its a canadian version or whatnot. You need to odin back to the stock VIBRANT rom then start all over.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oirsx2:
Oh wow. Thanks man. Now I know the source of this problem. Can you tell me then how to go about doing that? Or rather, how can I even go flashing anything when my phone won't even start up...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrod33084:
You need to download the stock rom JFD.tar file and 512.pit file and odin back.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oirsx2:
Call me ignorant, but how do I go about applying any of those you mentioned, if my phone won't even start up? as in, it won't start up... i press power, nothing happens. just nothing...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrod33084:
Can you get into download mode. If so that's how.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oirsx2:
I actually can't. I wish I could. But I can't. The only option is making a jig, I think... but even some threads are saying it won't help in my case. So I'm not sure.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
Jig won't help you at all because your phone won't turn on. Even when you charge it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrod33084:
Holding both volume up and down buttons then plugging in usb doesn't work?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oirsx2:
None of the aforementioned methods worked. I'm gonna try to get it replaced. And hopefully next time I flash it, I'll read if it's the right version i'm flashing. Thanks for the help. A mod can resolve this.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazy2o6:
I'm in the same boat as you......I did the exact same thing and now I'm screwed as well...

Did you get it fixed or are you going to try and get a new one?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madsp33d:
The same thing happened to my phone. The really weird part is that my phone was updated using kies mini and not some hax rom or anything. Now i can't do anything to turn it back on.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gtkansan:
I have found, from on the forum a brightness widget that looks like stock EVO sense. Problem is its the old version 2.01 of a modded curvefish widget. The newest version of the curvefish 2.2 also allows to set it back to auto from non auto. The new 2.2 I have supposedly is themes already but doesn't install right for me (shows curve fish image). I looked inside the apk and it still has the old image as icon.png. is there a way to transplant the icon.png from the old to the new so I can use it as the themed version? I can extract it from the old apk, but don't know how to re_apk_ify the files. Any help would be great. Both are attached.

ok folks just finished playing with this for the moment, hows about a galaxy tab email client for the streak :)

few issues in here though at min , they are listed below,

What is working?

Gmail Setup(also through "Other" setup as IMAP")

Gmail mail loaded

Gmail can send mail

Logging working so it keeps track of what has been sent/received

Rotating to portrait works

Notifications

Yahoo and Hotmail(possibly as well as gmail)

Conversation mode

Deleting messages

Switching between folders within mailbox(click on INBOX)

Exchange Email Fixed

Refresh Button Added

Issues

pop email accounts will add but never show emails, use imap instead as this should work.

ill probly play further with this also, and thanks to celljunkie for helping out this little port

Had this on my Samsung Captivate earlier and it was very bad. After about 3 days it would just crap out totally.

The only good email.apk i found on the samsung hardware was the lastest email.apk in the JPY roms that are 2.2.1

I think you maybe disappointed putting all this work in and the tab email sucks.

yeah - did it via clockwork - super easy. I tried the beta 1 version last night which was a manual install, but that shouldn't matter... beta 2 installs via clockwork.
[Streak 5 Android Development] paz101:
ok ive installed the new email client, however i am slightly confused, i just wish to confirm that this just replaces the defult email app, and so there would be no additional email application other then this?

yup :) just found out for myself.lol

one additional question does anybody know the correct settings to set up a hotmail email account?
[Streak 5 Android Development] paz101:
seems to keep force closing on me :(

fixed it, yes you must have them all as imap or it will force close, but wow- this is a much better email client than the standard streak email- and better than gmail app too- would be nice to have a widget that can work with it tho
[Streak 5 Android Development] stoney73:
Solution stolen from modaco forums Tab email client thread(johnston in particular):

"

try setting up your hotmail as exchange using m.hotmail.com and then just use your full email address and password.

you should be able to do this for hotmail.com and .co.uk accounts just make sure m.hotmail.com is your server setting.".

I was struggling with hotmail until used these settings. now it just works.

OK, I got it to sync with my exchange account, but it only synced mail from one month ago and beyond, nothing more recent. When I try to get it to sync now it says, once again, connection error.

I realize its still in beta, and when it works it looks very nice. Just hoping someone has some tips.

Ah, I see. I set it to sync the past one month and it synced everything prior to one month. I just set it for 2 weeks and it synced everything up to 2 weeks ago.

Something is off in the sync settings.

[Streak 5 Android Development] stoney73:
Sorry , wasnt having a go at you per se.Anyways, have you gone through the tab email client thread at modaco?

Have you tried putting a 'm.' in front of the server address? for example: m.hotmail.com( I know you are trying to set up your corporate exchange acc, the hotmail is just an example).

Also remember to put a '\' before your email address. You may have tried these things, I don't know. but if you haven't....then worth a try. Also tick the use secure connection and accept all ssl certificate boxes.

Btw, I'm no techy.

Should i select manual setup?

I am having / was having the same problem with Exchange account on Tab mail. It appears that it does a partial initial sync (I get about a weeks worth of emails) and it also syncs contacts and calendar. But if I hit the refresh button in eMail, it just says "Connection Error".
