So my Captivate arrives in the mail tomorrow, and I want to put Froyo on it, but SO MANY OPTIONS.
Since I'm new to the party, many of the threads have lingo that I just don't understand... is there a very thorough list of instructions on how to flash your phone reliably? Considering the phone will be *brand new* I figure I better do it before I put all my contacts / apps / data on there.
But many of these threads have all sorts of abbreviations and processes that I just don't understand, nor do they include links to extrapolate steps or explain what the hell they're saying.
I'm a quick learner, and very technically minded so I'm sure once its all explained that I'll understand and pick it up, but for now its all Greek. And I will really want to get rid of that AT&T bloatware, so... help!

- How does one flash to JP6 (and what IS JP6?)
- Odin, Clockwork, Master Clear, etc - what are these, where do you get them, what do they do?
- I see many instances of "install lag fix of choice" how does one do this
- Also references to "install the modem of your choice" - to me, modem is hardware - to what are they referring in regards to the device itself?
- I think based on looks, I want to go with [ROM][FROYO] Tayutama's 1.0.3 Lite Rom/Setiron's 1.2 Kernel with Extras - xda-developers this rom, but most of the posts on here are asking how they made it, and are not into how they installed it. It gets very technical very quickly, with familiar people talking about stuff they understand. I'm brand new...
