Hey korockinout13, I have the Samsung Captivate and I got hit with the EU screen. I hit RESET PHONE and completely lost my internal SD card (music,pics, everything) back in May. I followed the guide on the work-around through the external SD card and my phone has been working by booting the ROM on my external SD card.
Well, this morning (8/20), a calendar event notification triggered my phone to vibrate. My screen went completely black and wouldn't respond to anything, so I pulled the battery. It took a little over 5 minutes to start up but when it finally did.....ALL of my old apps and pictures prior to the EU were now on the phone. My internal SD card was completely restored! I plugged it into my computer and backed up both the internal and external SD cards, and that's where I stand now.
