Coming from a Hero and a Moment to a Captivate. Where are we Dev wise?

---

Is there a catch all guide to what has been developed for the Galaxy S platform? I'm curious about the state of CM6 and something akin to Tkirton's apps2sd. Just want to read up on what's going on before my phone arrives this week.

Thanks.

read some of the top threads would be a good start, and the stickies

No custom roms yet, but SRE 1.0 hack is amazing

CM6 is in the works for the Vibrant, nothing for the captivate yet, but I am sure it wont be to hard to port the vibrant version over.

Unhelpful's 1.2GHz overclocked, sweet, awesome kernel

The I9000 roms are pretty smooth compared to a AT&T crapped up roms

Not biased at all
(But seriously he did a kickass job)

Its just depressing to see Vibrant listed for future support for cyanogen roms, while the captivate is not. Hopefully the port is easy.

Last I heard they where making a universal cm6 for galaxy S. Perhaps working on the vibrant but end goal would make it universal. Oh well...perhaps i was wrong it wouldn't be first and def wouldn't be the last.

Same hardware so I don't see the problem with getting CM6 to work for us. Hell the Vibrant one might work straight across.

Side question, has anyone tried flashing a captivate with a vibrant kernel?

pretty good chance that CM6 should work as is, I'm running Vibrant6 at the moment with no issues other than the TMO stuff but that is nothing to worry about

I'm actually using the Vibrant source release to build my Captivate kernels. They're about the same but many things are missing from the Captivate sources. The compiled kernels are quite different though - the two version are built with different configurations and have different files in initramfs.

A couple of reasons
1) there isn't any 4 G coverage where I live and refuse to pay an extra 10 dollars for a service I'll never use. I'm in agreement with the folks behind explainthefee.com on that subject.
2) EVDO sucks here as well. 90% of the time I am on 1x instead of full EVDO.
