[Snakeman709]

Hello,

I am a complete noob and need help figuring out how to do this, I have a kindle fire that i set up with the pure android 4.2 ROM, and was wondeing how i could do this with my captivate, and is there any way i can use this on AT&T without a data plan.

By the way the captivate is running the way it comes form at&t .

Click the link below and read (to get the idea), then read again (to understand what you are doing), then do exactly what it says (to get what you want). Start with CyanogenMod Stable 10.1.2, it's the most popular custom ROM (may change it later to whatever you want 4.2.2 based). Don't flash Android 4.3 beta ROMs as your first custom ROM. You need to download Google Apps too, version for 4.2.2 ROMs. Don't forget to backup your data before upgrading. Good luck!

Oh sorry, read it wrong.

Superoneclick won't work on anything higher than GB.

That being said, you don't need it to root your device.

No offense taken.

P.S.: You don't need to root to go up to JB.
