Hi All, looking for a replacement for my xperia pro I found this phone. I'm pretty familiar with freexperia flashing and roms. Can I find something like that for this phone? I mean a decluttered rom that it's updated frequently. All captivates can be flashed to custom roms? do I need to unlock the bootloader or something like that?
Thanks!
Well long story short here this phone is real easy to root and flash a recovery onto. No bootloader unlock needed. And we have plenty of top-of-the line Roms that get updated often. :thumbup:

Hi again. I just got a used captivate from ebay. Looks like does have stock 4.0.4 I really want to install a decluttered rom since tethering is disabled by at&t. Is there a step by step tutorial to install new kernel and new rom? do I really need to backup imei as I read somewhere here? thanks!!
Hello,
from noob to noob my suggestion is to READ.
Consider to reserve your questions for something you are totally unable to face by yourself or you can't find by yourself just using "Search".
To answer your question, there's a huge "sticky" thread at the top of the general section. I'll find all the guides you need, including how to root, how to flash a recovery, and the thread related to new rom, each of them beginning with information and guide.
It's the very first thread.
No offense, i'm a noob me too.
for tethering... check the app store im sure there are free utilities that will allow you to tether ..
If you switch up your rom to JellyBean (as there are no stable FULLY working AOSP roms) you'll be missing some things.. ie: keyboard lights, pictures don't save with proper rotation, bluetooth headset, no ability to use skype ... some roms dont have wifi tethering working...
Rootbox 4.2.2 gives the best battery so far, keyboard lights don't work though...
Check out the "Everything SAmsung Glide" thread under development, read about the roms that are active and it should give you a great start!
Welcome to the community!
reading I think the best thing to do at this time is just root stock?

I find that the keyboard lights patch that ties lights to capacitive buttons does not make a real difference in battery life. I use it and my battery last as long as without it.
sorry to bother again, I haven't find how to update kernel and CWM. I have a xperia pro which I just have to start at fastboot, flash boot.img and then flash rom. how do I update CWM and kernel in a stock 4.0.4? thx!

You flash a kernel that's compatible with your ROM in recovery...that's it.

still don't get it.. kernel should be flashed at fastboot point (or whatever it is called for samsung devices). CWM recovery is supposed to flash roms... or am I missing something?

Ummm we flash with recovery here...you can open the zip file and paste the boot.img into manually if you like. That's about it. We don't deal with fastboot or hboot with this phone. Sony phones are a lot different. Like I said, download litekernel and flash with twrp or cwm. its as simple as that...as long as the version of the kernel matches the rom version. There is litkernel ics or for jb. You want litekernel ics. So do some reading then come back and ask questions.

I read the captivate (not glide) wiki and it's much clear:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_captivatemtd
step 1 put phone in download mode (like sony's fastboot mode).
step 2 flash custom recovery (which cointains the kernel I guess) using hemdall
step 3 boot into recovery and flash rom and gapps
I read several ppl lost imei info. I tried to backup but looks like requires root. Do I need to root stock, backup imei and then install the custom rom?
thanks!!

Id use odin. Much easier. Then flash twrp or cwm. Then go to whatever rom you want flash it and flash kernel. Gapps too if your using a aosp rom. That guide is for captivate not captivate glide... check out this guide for more insight http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1621350

at what step should I flash kernel? what about if I just want to use cyanogenmod kernel (boot.img)? do I really need to backup IMEI?

Hi, first three steps are done. I'm still looking for the best rom to daily use. About the step "flash kernel", do I have to flash litekernel ICS or JB depending the rom version of course, however, what about if I just want to use cyanogenmod provided kernel inside the zip? just I have to skip that step? what kernel do you recommend if I want to use cyanogenmod?
thanks for all the help guys, you have made me the job much easier!!
Quick question ... from a newbie ...
How can you go back to stock after flashing a kernel ?
I was using CM10 and go back to OEM rom ( Bell ) for waranty issue... still not received a working phone yet so i'm looking around to see what's new since my last CM10
I remember that I start unbriking the phone then switch directly to the OEM upgrade software from LG to put it back to stock ICS ...
Is it the same way if you play with the Kernel ? ( to go back stock)
either find someone that has it in a flashable zip or install a rom that has a stock kernel, there are kernels in the development section, not sure if there are any stock ones there, if you want a stock kernel on a p930 flash ho no's stock at&t cwm flashable rom
---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------
if you reflashed stock bell rom, your kernel should be reset to stock...
when you are flashing zips in CWM are you doing data wipe, cache wipe, and dalvik wipe? then flashing the zips?
I've got a Virgin Mobile Samsung S II.
I followed this guide to root my phone on my macbook. Following it exactly gave me this error message in terminal: ERROR: Partition "kernel" does not exist in the specified PIT.
After thorough reading of the old root guide thread, I thought it was a case sensitivity issue since I was using a newer version of Heimdall. In terminal, I entered: heimdall flash --KERNEL zImage to start the process rather than all lowercase "kernel."
Now my phone won't boot beyond the startup screen that says "Samsung GALAXY S II" with a yellow error triangle. Can anyone please help? I know very little about these things, so the simpler the answers, the better -- any and all would be greatly appreciated.
If it's helpful, here is what the terminal screen displayed:

I can boot to ClockWork Mod Recovery. Which I believe means that something took, because that's not something that would be on the phone otherwise, right? I tried using it to wipe the cache and dalavik cache, but it didn't work.
I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but how can I flash a ROM? If I can only load the download and CWM screens, is there still a way to get a ROM onto the phone to flash it?
Thanks for the reply!
@monsieurblue .. might be that kernel you flashed isn't compatible with the rom you're running. Try a different kernel that you now is compatible.

OK. Maybe the problem is that I'm not running a ROM right now? I was on the stock 4.1 that came on the phone when I bought it before this process. Now that I'm done this kernel thing, do I need to flash a ROM before the phone will boot up?
I can mount the phone with CWM to add/remove files from my computer. Can I add a .zip of a rom to install that way?

Because you now have a custom recovery ( I think ) you can use adb or something to get a rom on the phone.. I'm not sure as I've never looked into it, but I will.. hang tight. Also I think you can use heimdall to flash a rom.. right.

Yep.. that's what I thought.. just make sure you flash the rom correctly. A lot of the roms require you to flash from el26 or el29 direct boot kernel's. Since you can't boot, el29 is out. But you can put the rom of choice and gapps and el26 kernel on sdcard. Then wipe data, cache, dalvik. Then flash el26.after the flash go to advanced and pick reboot recovery. This will boot you back to recovery but the el26 recovery. Then flash rom.. then flash gapps.. you might want to wipe data, cache, dalvik again to be sure. You can also go to mount and format system.. only system... this will ensure a super clean flash..

This is incredibly helpful; thank you so much.
I'm sorry for the ignorance, but can you explain to me what el26 is, and what ROM I should flash? When I started this process, I wanted to install this one, but there are warnings saying not to install on a Jelly Bean Modem and I don't know what else to use or how to install on a different modem.
And just to make sure I understand, when you say "flash" el26, that means it's a .zip that will be on my sdcard, which I install by using the "install zip from sdcard" option on CWM, right?
Thanks again!

Ok.. I can't find a zip file for el26 or el29..you can go about this by getting one of these recoveries. They are in rwilco's repo..el26 is at the top of the page.. don't get a stock one.. lol. As it will have stock recovery. Get the. Tar version of the file and use heimdall to flash it and then proceed with flashing rom, gapps.. but I don't know how heimdall works, I'm a windows man. Or you could flash a rom with heimdall.. Or yet another way is to try to flash the rom from that recovery you have.. I'm not sure about it.. if I was you I would download the tar el26 kernel and a JB rom based on touchwiz from Android development thread and the gapps.. put the rom and gapps on sdcard. Then figure out a way to flash the tar el26 with heimdall..
Yes.. flash means install... and the modem thing is because CM/AOSP/AOKP roms need an ICS modem to get data working. That why I suggested the JB touchwiz rom.. it will work with the modem you have. I'm assuming it's gb27modem(jb modem)..

Cool! So I download the el26 .zip and put that onto my sdcard, then flashed it. Now, what ROM and Gapps should I put on there as well before following the rest of your plan and booting the whole thing up? My intention was to install something with Jelly Bean 4.2.2, but now that I'm all turned around, I'm not sure what the best ROM for that is.
@monsieurblue ..
After you have the kernel on you sdcard(not in a folder). And you have the rom/gapps you want.... wipe cache and dalvik cache(under advanced). Then click install from sdcard. Pick install from internel.. just thought you might have been able to put it on ext.sdcard.Anyway,go to el26 zip file and install. After install is done. Go to advanced and pick reboot recovery and phone will boot to the el26 recovery(you might have to push volume up.. volume down.. volume up) to get you're power button to work as the select button. It's like that on el29..
Now wipe data, cache, dalvik.. then flash rom. After it's done flash the gapps the rom op thread suggested. If all goes well after this.. you can reboot..
I think this will get ya home.. Let me know.

Ha, it's no problem! I'm just glad for the help. I think I've got the hang of what to do once I've got the ROM/Gapps picked out, I just don't know which one to pick out. Which do you mean when you say the ones OP thread suggested? The "Liquid Smooth" one I linked to in my thread starter is what I want, but since I haven't changed my modem, I think it will harm the phone (it says in the instructions not to install on a Jelly Bean modem, which is what I believe I have right now).
Just saw your recommendation for project X and paradoX -- I'll check them out now, thanks!
If you dead set on 4.2.2...I love slimbean4.2...4.3 has no 4g. Also you will need slimgapps for slimbean as it boots at 182 dpi for the screen size. You can also use the lz kernel in the slimbean thread.. But I would stick to touchwiz until you get you're feet wet,, lol..Because flashing slim or other cm/aosp/aokp roms will require the ICS modem flash and then a temp boot flash to update you prl and profile.. You can boot a tw rom tonight then tomorrow get mobile Odin and flash an ICS modem(FL24 is the newest)then update prl and profile. After this you could use el29 direct boot kernel to flash any cm/aosp/aokp rom you want.. and have data.. wheww.. lol. Let me know if you need a guide for mobile Odin. I wrote a little one up here in q and a.. awhile back.

That's cool.. flash it tomorrow. After we get ya back up.. and about the op.. sometimes rom Devs will suggest you flash a certain gapps pkg.
FYI.. it won't hurt you're phone.. you just won't have data.. also you know you will have to change you're APN settings to get mms working.. unless you're on sprint.. I'm a boost boy.
You could flash the one you want. Then get an ICS modem and flash it in recovery.. wipe cache/dalvik..flash modem.. reboot. But you're signal might be buggy without the prl update.. and you can't update prl's from cm/aosp/aokp roms.. as of yet..

This is incredible, it worked! Thank you so much!
My concern now is getting to a ROM that I like -- this Project X one is good as a temporary measure, but I really want something that's 4.2.2 and highly customizable (and, most importantly, able to be installed from a mac).
@Gil81
Last question, I promise! To install Slimbean 4.2, which you recommended, it looks like I can follow this guide. Only problem is the Odin One-Click ICS Root: I can't follow those instructions because they're exclusive to Windows and I'm on a Mac. Any idea on how to install Slimbean 4.2 onto my device from where I am now? And do I need to change the modem, like you mentioned earlier?

That being said..now that youre up and running follow the guide i linked to in the above post...its a mobile odin guide for flashing roms on our phone..it will work will almost all roms. it is how i have flashed every rom but a couple one-clicks..
BUT BEFORE YOU GO TO THAT LINK....download fl24 or another ics modem and flash it in recovery on the rom you have now..after the flash and you reboot back to the rom..update the prl and profile. just remember after you do this you wont have data....but it is the right modem for slimbean or the rom you really wanted..FYI..the mobile odin guide will work for that rom you first wanted...just follow the links in it and the directions to the letter...it is a proven way to flash...
Dont worry about the ics one-click...i never have any problems..if you do. you can always go back and just completely wipe youre phone and sdcard. then use heimdall to flash the rom.. the one click just clean slates youre phone and changes the partitions...i believe heimdall would do the same if you where to use it to flash..but i think youll be fine..
@Gil81
Awesome, I'm going to follow this exactly later tonight! Thanks again for all of the help!
In the guide you linked to, you say:
First...you will need to get all the needed files( ROM, Gapps( for the rom you pick ),EL29 direct boot kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1662295 ..this is the link to rwilcos repo..scroll down to gb-touch wiz based kernels. Then look for EL 29 direct boot/tar.. You will need the tar.md5 format. Place this tar and the ROM and Gapps on the root of you're internal sdcard( not in a folder ).

Would I be using the JB Touch-Wiz Based Kernel or the GB Touch-Wiz Based Kernel if I'm using a Slimbean 4.2.2 ROM?

when you follow thw link...it will take you to rwilco's repo.. Scroll down the page (almost to the bottom of the kernel listings)and you will see a link for the el29 direct boot kernel..get the tar version because you will be using mobile odin..The el29 direct boot kernel is a safe gingerbread kernel we use to flash roms(it will not boot up on the rom youre flashing)..
you see..we just use that kernel and recovery to flash...once you flash the rom it will install the kernel made to run with that rom. Our recovery is funny on this phone...it is part of the kernel,thats why we use that kernel to flash..it is safe and has a safe recovery..
I just prefer el29 direct boot ( instead of el26 ) because when you flash it with mobile odin it will boot straight to recovery for you...no pulling the battery and then putting it back in and holding power button and volume up to get to recovery..:laugh:..
remember to get the slim gapps for 4.2...and after you get slim bean booted up and let it settle in for a few hours...you can flash the lighning kernel for slimbean linked in the slimbean thread...to flash it you just boot to recovery...wipe cache and dalvik and install it..then reboot..:good:...it is really the only tweak i run with slimbean..great battery life..
if you need any help...dont hesitate to ask...thats what xda is all about...Good Luck.

Here is the link to the lz kernel... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2270358 ...
Just scroll down until you see ( smdk 4412 p_4 zip ) Thats the one you want...
FYI...some people reported a boot loop on this kernel if you wiped cache or dalvik...I never had the issue, but its out there...
I also seen a new kernel thread in the original development thread...blasphamy kernel..i think.. You could also try it..Just remember to make a backup before going flashy crazy..so if things go side ways,you can get back to where you sarted...

I've hit a roadblock! I was following this list I made based on your instructions:
MODEM
1. Add FL24.zip to sdcard and flash in recovery.
2. Reboot.
3. Update the PRL and profile.
ROM
1. Place ROM, Gapps, and EL29 boot kernel on the sdcard.
2. Open mobile odin > kernel > internal sdcard > EL29 direct boot kernel > flash firmware > check md5 > flash
3. Once in recovery, push volume up, volume down, volume up (this will make the power button the enter button)
4. Wipe data
5. Wipe cache
6. Wipe dalvik cache
7. Mounts/storage > format system (only system)
8. Install from internal sdcard > ROM zip file
9. Install from internal sdcard > Gapps
10. Reboot
I finished step 2 on ROM, then the system restarted and the phone didn't boot past the "Samsung GALAXY SII" screen. When I hold the power and volume up buttons to get into recovery, it goes into a recovery screen that says "Android system recover <3e>" at the top. I have four options:
reboot system now
apply update from sdcard
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
I wiped the data and cache based on your instructions, but there's no option to wipe the davlik cache, and when I go to "apply update from sdcard" it says: E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)
Help!

That's because you got the el29 kernel...not the el29 direct boot kernel....you just flashed a stock kernel that will not boot with anything but a gingerbread rom...
i think i warned you about that...now you will need to heimdall a recovery back on to the phone...
I flashed a new ROM after an annoying bug from the previous ROM,then I installed some applications (including busybox),restarted it without problems,but after the next restart it was bootlooping (I don't know why,I didn't installed any other application after the first restart).I did a factory reset,I wiped the data,cache,dalvik cache,but it was still bootlooping.I wiped it again and I tried to flash another ROM (and yes,they were all compatible with my phone,and I respected the instructions,I flashed a lot of ROMs before),but,again,it was bootlooping.I wiped it one more time,and I performed a nandroid restore (from another ROM),but it was still bootlooping.WTF?I have never experienced a thing like this.Should I try to flash a ROM (stock,GioPro) with Odin?What if it would still bootloop?What should I do?
BTW:I don't know if this is important,but before I preformed the nandroid restore,I accidentally made a backup (it was made very fast),and I noticed that the date was messed up(showing year 1970).It says that it has only 16mb and the only folder existing in /system is lost+found.However,I can see my boot animation
Sorry for the eventually spelling mistakes.

I flashed GioPro 1.6 (I know it's old),it worked,but I couldn't see the settings app,so I copied one from CM 7.2 with adb,and guess what? It bootlooped.Even after I wiped data and cache (I can't wipe dalvik because of CWM 5.0.2.7) and now I can't even see the boot animation,it just restarts after "Galaxy Gio".Tomorrow I will try to flash the stock one(enough with flashes for today).Can you send me the link for the stock rom(I can't find it)?

I didn't.I installed the same apps that I had before it was bricked.I will try again without installing any app.
EDIT:I followed the same instructions more than once (tried to wipe everything),tried 3-4 different ROMs but it's still bootlooping.Also,I noticed the following error in CWM "can't format unknown volume /emmc".I think I should buy a new phone,lol...

Download A stock rom for you region from the link that i gave and flash it via ODIN V4.42
Search For A Tutorial and if you cant under it, just reply and i will post an easier one (step-by-step guide) for you :victory:
Before I want to say big thank you to Nankun for porting miui 11 for v30 and also another big thank you to Xiao Vic for maintenance and sharing the rom.
Also thanks to Hendavi for testing on the T-Mobile h932 to figure a way to make this time work on it
Warning: I am not responsible for any damage cause. Read instructions carefully before. I am not the creator of this rom, neither the maintainer. I am just sharing for our passion.
IMPORTANT: VENDOR PARTITION NEEDED BEFORE FLASHING!
Make sure you have VENDOR PARTITION on your device before flashing the rom or else you will get boot loop or brick. You can check the forum for how to enable vendor partition or treble on your device.
Don't flash gapps or else it will break setup. If you want Google applications, use the old method of installing gapps on miui by searching and downloading gapps installer apk file from xiaomi forum or anywhere else to get play store, contact sync and other Google services.
If you are facing bootloaps or brick after installation even when you have vendor partition, just reboot to twrp and make factory reset and reboot again.
It won't boot if you're on stock oreo, since the rom needs pie files to work properly. Make sure you're coming from stock pie rom or have once update to stock pie before installing any AOSP rom as current rom. If you're coming from AOSP pie or Android 10, make back up and flash rom after vendor partition is created.
The rom will boot on all v30 series except for Canada H933 only. If you have this H933 version, you need to convert to US998 before trying r else you will get hard brick.
Those on T-Mobile H932 should do these things. First you will need to boot the miui 10 first, by downloading the miui 10 backup zip file from the main download link and download the file miui 8.22 file and unzip it. After unzipping, place the file in the backup folder under twrp folder in the SD, then restore in twrp recovery and reboot. After rebooting, you can enjoy the miui 10 which works fully for T-Mobile h932 or if you want to update to miui 11, just download the second backup file from the link with T-Mobile H932 only, and follow the same process to restore the files then reboot. But please make sure you still have the vendor partition first before trying any of this.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Download the rom and places it on your device sd.
2. Reboot to twrp and make back up of your current rom if incase anything, then you restore back.
3. Wipe system, data, vendor, caches then go back to flash rom zip.
4. Reboot to system then enjoy.
Bugs.
HiFi dac don't work. And NFC also don't work. Also double touch to wake don't work for now.
Aside portrait mode of xiaomi camera don't work and it will break the cam app.
Aside these everything works smoothly and stable.

https://mega.nz/#!G9lQWSjL!m1U4b4DA2nXEa7VEQyG_peZfJiPd11vTl0hoFqnINFo
Use this file for creating vendor Partition by flash in twrp.
Make backup first before flashing.
Flash zip, go to wipe and advance, select resize partition, then select vendor, choose where you want to create the vendor partition from( system recommend, and also the size should be 512 and above)
After creating the vendor partition, reboot recovery and format system, vendor and caches. Now you can flash rom.
Good afternoon and thank you for sharing this with us. I have two questions for you. I followed your instructions and regarding to wiping vendor, my phone doesn't allow it to be wiped. Also when I tried to install the rom, I was receiving no os installed when trying to reboot my phone. I redownloaded the rom and and transferred to zip card in hoping that will make a difference in install. Is there a way to bypass vendor wipe or is that needed? Thank you again for adding Miui and many thanks for the porting. I have loved MIUI as long as I had android.

You can't wipe vendor because you don't have the partition. Download the partition file from the below link and flash via twrp. After that, go to wipe, Advance, resize partition, the select vendor and then create a vendor part. You can either create it from the data partition or system partition but I recommend system. The size should be from 512 above not below. After creating the partition, go back to wipe and then wipe system, vendor and caches, then you can now flash the rom.

Awesome. I will try it now.
Got some good news, more good news, great news, and some bad news. The good news is with the zip file provided it installed perfectly. The more good news is the setup was easy. The great news is the camera worked perfectly portrait and landscape. The bad news is trying to figure out how to change everything to English. One thing I discovered is do not install gapps stock with the ROM. It will crash it or it did with me. Awesome port and thank you.

I tried to flash gapps to get google working for syncing purposes and install some of my favorite apps. I tried the local miui app store to download the playstore but the server is extremely slow in my area. About 2 hours and the rom was still downloading the updates prior to installing the selected apps. The rom itself is extremely smooth and running the way MIUI is expected to run without a glitch. I am just wondering if the miui store is downloading using my cellular data instead of my 400M internet.

You have to use the old method of installing gapps on the miui Chinese rom. Use miui gapps installer apk which you can Google for it. It's works and you will get all your contacts and things back from Google play store.

You can't wipe vendor because you don't have the partition. Download the partition file from the below link and flash via twrp. After that, go to wipe, Advance, resize partition, the select vendor and then create a vendor part. You can either create it from the data partition or system partition but I recommend system. The size should be from 512 above not below. After creating the partition, go back to wipe and then wipe system, vendor and caches, then you can now flash the rom.

I was able to get mine fixed by format data, then wipe everything, and reboot recovery before installing miui 11. Everything works beautifully.
