Root Samsung Captivate 4.1 ROM

[filotov]

Has any tried and would recommend a custom ROM to upgrade the captivate to 4.1. If so how well does the ROM work, was there any issues, is everything like the gps, camera, etc working fine?

Hey filotov, just a heads up, I moved your thread to the All Things Root section for your device, hopefully you get a faster answer in there. Thanks for understanding.

I'm currently running the Oct. 3 nightly build of Cyanogenmod 10. It's Jelly Bean 4.1 with the ability to check over the air for updates. It's really smooth and relatively fast. So far, no issues I can see, although I haven't tried the GPS yet. The "experimental" build was very laggy and didn't have enough storage space for apps, but the nightly build is much faster and takes full advantage of the 2 gb internal storage. I'd recommend it highly.
