                      STEP 3
                      Please backup your SMS, contacts and internal SD to your PC.
                      NOTE: Samsung Kais will not work anymore after step 3.
                      1. Download the prebuilt release of
                      CyanogenMod you wish to install from
                      http://cm-10.1-20130522-NIGHTLY-
                      galaxysmtd.zip

                      Optional: Download gapps supplemental 3rd-
                      party applications packages for Samsung Galaxy S-I9000 from
                      http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip

                      a must.
                      2. Place the CyanogenMod rom .zip file on the
                      root of the SD card:

                      Transfer your file(s): adb push
                      YOURROMZIP.zip /sdcard/

                      If you boot directly to recovery and have
                      an internal sdcard, you may need to run
                      adb shell mount /data or mount data
                      through the recovery menu before transferring.
                      lmportant: Place the downloaded gapps supplemental packages
                      (eg Google Apps or kernel) .zip file(s) on
                      the root of the SD card.
                      3. Boot to recovery mode on the device by
                      holding Vol Up & Vol Down & Power or Vol
                      Up & Home & Power.
                      4. Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod
                      Recovery, use the physical volume buttons to
                      move up and down. On most devices, the
                      power button is used to confirm your
                      selection, although for some devices the
                      power button is used as a "back" button to
                      go up one level, in which case the home
                      button is used to confirm the selection.
                      5. Select the option to wipe data/factory reset .
                      6. Select install zip from sdcard .
                      7. Select choose zip from sdcard.
                      8. Select the CyanogenMod file you placed on
                      the sdcard. You will then need to then
                      confirm that you do wish to flash this file.
                      Important: Install the gapps package using the same method.
                      9. Once both installations are finished, return
                      back to the main menu, and select the reboot
                      system now option. The device should now
                      boot into CyanogenMod.


                      I modified STEP 3 to save you time, errors and waste of your internet data.
                      Compare step 3 with the link below but focus on
                      " Installing CyanogenMod from recovery" on the page.

I owned this phone for about a year and let me say it was a darn good phone. Yes maybe its not the best phone but you can install a custom kernal and rom, there was hardly any lag when i did this, so quick. The gps was a bit inaccurate but it didn't matter, you quickly figure out where you are. So think twice before you criticise this awesome phone, iphone you can't do crap unless you jailbreak, but now they've patched it with new updates lol.
