What is Andromeda?
Andromeda is Giorgio Armani's private build. When Georgio Armani asked Samsung for a phone, the result was the GT-i9010 Armani. Then, when AT&T and Rogers asked Samsung to build a phone, the same hardware was given to them and called SGH-i897 and SGH-i896 respectively. The difference is that AT&T and Rogers added alot of bloatware to their packages. Andromeda is, in essence, a pure Captivate without advertisements, bloatware, and services which cost you money. Andromeda is maintained by Team Komin. It is designed to be the build you settle down with after you're done hopping around. It has all the creature comforts and luxuries you'd expect from a name like Armani.
Who is Team Komin?
Team Komin is a group of open-source developers and professionals who share an interest in our beloved Captivates. We bring the lovely mesh of Andromeda's unmatched speed and beauty to your phone.

I heard you have nightly builds, where are they?
Nightly builds, when active, are built at 0200CST and synchronized to the servers directly afterwards:
This was the last nightly built, it is generated, uploaded and symlinked at our servers at 2AM every night: http://files.teamkomin.com/Andromeda/AndromedaNightly.zip
Nightly Builds: http://files.teamkomin.com/Andromeda/nightlies/
What's a nightly build?
During the development process we like to test the rom. We make a build which is generated and transferred at non-peak hours... At night. We call them nightly builds. They are our automated system of alpha, beta and release candidate testing. They should be considered unstable and only for Developers, beta testers, and the brave. You will likely want to use Andromeda3. In the event that an issue is discovered, reported, and fixed, you may want to try a Nightly Build to see if it solved your problem.
