I would like to know if there is a way to port the jk4 modem from the captivate to the vibrant. I want it because it gives amazing battery. My brother has it on his captivate and it is really great. Thank you in advance.

I imagine it would give you great battery life in a Vibrant as well, but only because at best you'd have no signal, at worst a soft bricked phone. The modem alone won't do any good if there isn't a proper kernel and rom for it.
I don't think I ever seen anyone port a modem/radio neither do I think its possible.

Are you sure because I have seen a rom that says it has KD1 on the vibrant and that modem is made for the vibrant 4g

You can port the rom, but not the modem.
Secondly, modems are phone specific, so porting them between different phone will cause you to brick or cause irreparable damage.

dont try it will probably brick your ohone. the original international galaxy s voodoo bricked some of our captivates and they are much more similar to the gt 1900, so wait

It wont be working until we get a bootable kernel built from source.
Cam someone tell me a modem to get 4G on my vibrant, thanks !

there isn't one. the vibrant 4g modem is not compatible with out phones. idk why but it isnt
There isn't one... Yet. You will need a modem, AND kernel. Be patient. The amazing devs will probably have it out before the real 4g will be out. Because the devs aren't money hungry crooks.

Ya , I think too , cause they have a stock vibrant 4g rom ported for the vibrant . I dont know how . But it said it doesnt have the 4g modem .

Not possible. Do a search, there have been a few threads on this already. Mods, please close this thread.
We will never have true 4g on the vibrant. If you want it then buy the Galaxy S 4g when it comes out.

ya. the regular can not get 4g even thogh there is a ported 4g rom but the signal is really 3g
As the questions says... can you put say trigger on the vibrant 4g..? My friend has one and its even running a kb5 modem..
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Vibrant and Vibrant 4g ROMs are not interchangeable without modifications so no you cant use Trigger on the 4g.
Last time I checked the 4g doesnt even have clockworkrecovery yet so I wouldnt be trying to flash ROMs on that phone anyway.
Vibrant 3g KB5 is NOT the same as sgs4g KB5.
And no, 3g and 4g roms are not interchangeable.

Thanks for the quick responces.. I was just wondering because under about phone they look identical. I guess there will not really be any work seen on the sgs4g?

The galaxy s 4g is t959vuvkb5
Vibrant 3g is t959uvkb5
from my Vibrant running Bionix-v 1.3.1 and my Unbridled Carnage theme.
What really seperates the 4g from ours? A 4g modem and a ffc i also noticed it has a 1650mah battery compared to the 1500 in this one.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Sdcards for one. Vibrant has internal + external and the 4g has just external.

way to repost what's already been said...
Is there any custom roms? Or should i sell it and keep my vibrant? I was looking at the 4g forum and it looked pretty dead. Anyone know if its compatible with regualr vibrant roms?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
from wht i know its not totally compatible!
So there arent very many roms available? I want the ffc and 4g
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
then keep it stock and enjoy the ffc and 4g...
So there are no roms for the 4g?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Not really. Doesn't seem to have any active developers.
The lack of developers is what's keeping me from getting one.

You keep saying you want a custom Tom for the galaxy s 4g, and we keep telling you there really aren't any nor is there an active development community for it, and you still keep asking the sake question.
If you want custom roms, stick with the vibrant. If you want ffc, 4g, and no custom roms, go with the sgs 4g. Pick your poison.

Yeah, he posted how to, but he's not developing for it, so it's up to other users to do the leg work, which people aren't stepping up to do.

If you get one, i could port roms you want over from the vibrant. Just pm me the rom you want and i will port it.
I would trade it for a G2 or Galaxy Tab (if you get lucky). Or just sell it on ebay. Just avoid the Mytouch 4G since you are out of warranty if one of the slews of issues with that phones occurs.

I'll pass, tablets aren't really my thing. And, I'd rather have a g2x than a g2. G2's are kind of wack. Im just waiting for a phone that really blows me out of the water.

Is there anyway to take off the cell parts of the phone so its only WiFi. The reason I ask is cause this phone has no service and I saw in the battery area that the cell standby is second on the list. So just asking if I can use like ROM toolbox to freeze it or remove the cell phone parts of it.

Even if it's on airplane mode?
You can purposefully break the software by deleting the /radio/modem.bin. It will then no longer have any service.
