captivate

Hello, I just got my Samsung Captivate Glide today. I am based in the UK so I have a few questions: - From what I have seen, there are two mods available for this model, Osimod and Inc3ption. What are the differences and what are people using? - Will flashing one of these unlock the phone from...

I was trying to root my stock froyo. But somehow I was getting bootloop. Then I tried installing some stock rom through odin. But my bad day, it failed and now I have [phone...+..!...+..computer]. I couldn't go into normal yellow triangular download mode. Searched thru net and found out that...

I'm using a ICS ROM and the latest version of Skype. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to start Skype at boot, I still need to log in manually and I always forget. Is there any app or trick I can use to do this?

Here is my dilemma: If I am using a phone on Tmobile that has absolutely No data plan at all, but I want to upgrade to an unlocked AT&T, will it recognize that it is a smart phone and try to put on a data plan automatically? Or will it not recognize the IMEI number and let me continue to use the...

If I use a Captivate on T-mobile but do not want a data plan of any type on my account, will tmobile recognize the Captivate and activate on of their plan automatically, or do they not recognize the Captivates IMEI so that it would essentially be a dumbphone to them?

I always felt Captivate was in the forefront of development (when I had it, back in the days). Even now, it already have ICS (I need to dig out the old captivate, glad I didn't sell it). But in last months, so many I9100 ROMs are porting, it feels like the old days with the Captivate. :D

Firstly, let me preface this article by stating that I have been an avid HTC owner for nearly a decade. That said, I have always been partial and loyal to the HTC brand from PPC to WP7; So, when it came to my first Android device the stars aligned and the HTC Vivid became the first Android...

Hey all, I have had terrible misfortune in the realm of battery stats. Ever since CM7 (and maybe even before) my phone is unable to figure out how much battery is left. Here is a common scenario: Charge phone overnight, use phone throughout day, battery dies after 6-7 hours of moderate-heavy...

Hi Y'all, Just bricked hard bricked my captivate, so its off to become unbrickable, so it got me thinking, who here would put in some cash to buy a cappy and get it unbrickabled for a Dev to port windows phone to the cappy? Maybe try and get featured on the XDA home page. Anyhoo just an idea (:

I own the AT&T GS2 (i777) and a Captivate. I read a lot of posts about how we can't have a working i777 ICS build because to have one functional, we need either [a] the source for i9100 (or i777 I presume) or [b] a leaked/released firmware from Samsung running ICS. It sounds totally fair. But...

I went to the AT&T store the other day and played with the Captivate Glide. I noticed that it had landscape homescreen capabilities, something our phones don't have. Is here a way to mod it onto our devices? I'd really like that to happen.

when i make or receive a call i cannot hear the person on the other line unless i put it on speaker or use headphones. Does anyone know how to fix this?
