ok this maybe noobish - Captivate General

i have a question we all know the t-mobile vibrant comes with a movie avatar to be exact does the captivate come with any to witness its awe inspiring screen

Yeah I searched this out as well and it seems that the only "premium features" that ATT blessed us Captivate owners with is the ATT crapware. They took our FM radio and replaced it with that ****ty ATT subscription app that has less features then Pandora. Another example of how ATT loves its customers! Oh well atleast they let Samsung give us a great high end Android phone like the Captivate.

I made an .mp4 of Avatar just for this phone and it looks soooo nice!

lol so no movie or nothing now im upset

Just for shizz and giggles... What format is Avatar in on the Vibrant?

The Vibrant comes with a trailer that's .3gp and the movie appears to be DRM'd and is .dcf - my boss is on T-Mobile and gave me copies of the files. Trailer is 3 mb, movie is 1.4 gb.

Goodbye Vibrant hello Captivate

Got my Captivate last night....love it.
what didn't you like about the vibrant?
I have both...the only real difference is the feel of the device. Of course there's also the difference in carrier added software but other then that their the same device.

Personally the captivate feels better than the rest of the sgs family. He rest feel way too clunky for me.

I've only held a vibrant once, if I recall correctly..isn't it a bit lighter? It's been a while but I specifically remember telling myself 'Gee, that's pretty light.'
The vibrant also had one advantage, the group over at cyanogen actually plans on developing for it...

Yeah because cyanogen are famous for only releasing for a tiny share of devices and have no interest in porting even to near totally identical devices. /sarcasm.
You think they'll crack running CM on the totally different processor of the vibrant and then be put off by the odd front facingg camera. Please.
Wherever you get your info you are totally wrong. Cyanogen will be releasing for the whole galaxy line, facilitated by the fact that the different names make almost no difference to the hardware.

It just takes time.
I never used or even held the Vibrant but the Captivate looks way better than the Vibrant and the other Galaxy S phones.
How about those stories about the camera being better on the Vibrant? I always thought that was taken from one review and made into a gospel...
Not true, a friend of mine has the vibrant our photos look exacly the same, besides both phones have the exact same camera hardware.
^^^ This.
Guy that I work with every day has a Vibrant, and our photos/videos look the same. I'm not fond of how his phone looks, though, too iPhone-like with the gaudy bezel. The Captivate just looks like pure business to me.
Personal opinion, the captivate looks the best of the four sgs phones. Epic... boo;-(
Rooted Capivate Galaxy S
Captivate certainly looks the best, but the Epic is nothing to frown at.
Epic is to big, I wish I had money for i9000. But the captivate is so much sexier.

Just as I thought then...that one review I read stated that and then it became a "fact" for many people...usual internet stuff
I have the captivate that I picked up to try out AT&T's service. Like others I agree its the best looking, the Vibrant looks too much like an iPhone. I currently have T-Mobile with a BB 8900, and I do like the Captivate. The only "problem" I see is that if I dont like AT&T's service (which its looking that way), I dont want to be stuck with returning the phone and going to the Vibrant on T-Mobile, haha. Luckily I unlocked my Captivate and can use it with my T-Mobile account, but unfortunately the Captivate doesnt operate on T-Mobile's 3G network, but the Vibrant can work on AT&Ts 3G - or so Ive read. All I know is when I run my Captivate on T-Mobile, I only can get Edge service on it. Its just going to suck to have to either keep the Captivate and not have 3G, or return it and go with the ugly Vibrant...

any idea how sprints 3g is compared to tmo's "4g"? i get edge at home on tmo. but sprint has me completely covered on 3g,no 4g yet. just wondering if anyone has any experience with sprint 3g. i think it's time for me to jump ship. i love tmo, and their latest selection of phones. but i think i'm gonna take the plunge early. at least they give you 30 days to cancel which is great. i'll just go back to tmo em+ if i have to.
Sprint's 3G is slow!!!!!!!!!! I never got above 2mb in a year of owning an EVO...Now 4g was always fast...when you could actually stay connected
I'm leaving with him and paying the damn cancellation fee.evo here I come.
Got this comparison coming soon

As a former Evo owner (favorite phone ever once Sense is gone), I had to try out the Sensation and the Evo 3D and I finally got a chance to use them both for an extended period today. I can definitely say the grass isn't always greener. I experienced pretty much the same things everyone else has said: the screens are very washed out and both devices are slower than the G2x in pretty much every way. The 3D feature is barely worth writing about as it simply causes a headache. If you're looking for 3D, buy a 3DS instead.
With that said, the Evo 3D is produced by a company that actually pretends to care about most of the devices they release and their consumers, it will have tons of development once the bootloader is unlocked, and in the case of Sprint, they seem to be pretty much on point when it comes to releasing updates. If you can deal with the lame screen, you get good Sprint reception, and can wait for the bootloader to be unlocked, you can't go wrong with a 3D. I believe the G2x to be the better device when it's actually working, but I doubt T-Mo or LG will ever mention it again after the fabled Gingerbread release occurs.

Well, those are just my thoughts and opinions on the devices. You don't have to believe me if you don't want to, but I have no reason to come here and make up a story. I have service from both Sprint (still have my Evo) and T-Mobile and could easily get any of the other two phones for my personal use. At work today I carried around my own G2x and a borrowed Sensation and 3D for around 9 hours and came to the conclusions I mentioned above.
Edit: I should have said former Evo USER in my initial post.

There is no doubt in my mind that the my G2X is definitely faster when it comes to flying around the UI and playing some games but to say it's faster in pretty much every way is completely false. Over the last two weeks I have done numerous tests with the browsers, apps and games. I use the same apps and have played the same games on both phones every day. I can say without a doubt that the Sensation does interact with apps a little bit faster. Google Maps is where it's very noticeable as it will load the map as you scroll about twice as fast as it does on my G2X.
When it comes to the browser, I can't really pick a clear winner here. Some websites get loaded faster on the G2X and others load faster on the Sensation.
When it comes to the games I play, Dungeon Defenders and Angry Birds run about the same on both devices,Riptide GP obviously runs better on the G2X but the game I play most, almost religiously (Homerun Battle 3D) runs smoother and looks better on the Sensation.
If you want, I can show you some video comparisons of the games I listed. Obviously I can't do them side by side due to my hand restriction but you will still be able to get the picture.
By the way, it depends on what display you get with your Sensation. Currently there are 3 available. The nicer Sharp display does not wash out like the others and is almost as vibrant as a Super AMOLED. The better Sharp also has a better contrast, just not quite as good as my G2X. It definitely performs better in direct sunlight than my G2X.

I think I remember seeing a post somewhat similar to this maybe a month n a half ago, but I think its blown. If you bought it at an att store, maybe u could go to the store and complain about it. They might get one out from stock and see. Also, I believe best buy still has the live demo of it. Maybe there's one near you

Infuse 4g or Lg optimus 2x? which to buy?

Infuse has its own plus points (S-AMOLED, better battery backup)

so.....what say you?

LG Junk is junk.
Infuse w/ MIUI > LG w/ CM7.
I had the LG g2x and it was the worst phone I ever owned hands down. Had horrible LCD backlight bleed, went through 3 replacements and they all had it.

Depends, how often are you gonna record videos? How much gaming do you do? (I'm not talkin Angry Birds here, I mean games that will use the dual cores)
If you do either one of these on a daily basis go for LG, BUT in all reality, 720p video is still pretty damn good, my M11x laptop is 720p and still looks crystal clear
Now, how many times are you going to use your screen?? Haha ya...Infuse wins that one. The screen is the main selling point of the Infuse, and trust me, I was sold after first look.
We've got CM7, not fully supported, but it's here and once official GB gets here, who knows what will happen.
Galaxy s 2. Or galaxy nexus.
Notice motorola and lg, both switched to omap4 on there new phones. The Tegra2 sux.
The infuse while great is old news, three gs2 is super fast and threw galaxy nexus had an even bigger better screen. But its not unmanageable. The screen had a different aspect ratio making it 1mm narrower than the infuse while being about 5mm taller.

i worked for tmobile when we brought out the g2x. i love the specs and almost stock android
but the phone had tons of problems, random reboots, and tons and tons of other issues. (which is why we stopped getting stock for a month or so)
although we never officially admitted it. so if your buying a used one i would say def not, a new or recent batch, should be okay

which reminds me, tell your lady friends to never have naked or semi naked pics on their phone, if u show a cell phone rep there ur phone for w/e reason, they will go through them , and or show them to other people, and or post them on the internet
lol
it was really frustrating, people wiht g2x would come in with tons oif problems like random reboots, unresponsiveness, light bleeding, and we were told to pretend like nothing was wrong and tell them it wasnt happening to most people lol . (then again it wasnt a coprorate tmobile)
Well i do film videos of hd quality fairly often, and game ever-so-intermittently.
The main issue here is whether or not the infuse is "future proofed".
Rumours suggest that the o2x might be getting ICS (via CM9) at the dawn of 2012 whilst the infuse having no official cm7 support might be left behind.
As for the 02x, i'll be purchasing a brand new one, will it still suffer the backlight bleeding, random reboots etc etc? heard they were fixed with the latest 2.3.4 update, but correct me if i'm wrong.
And in my budget, these 2 are the only real options.
I almost got that LG, ended up going to AT&T instead of Tmobile though (cuz Tmobile lied to me) anyway the infuse is what I ended up having to settle for due to choosing AT&T ...dude I thought I wanted the LG more, I was wrong! I love the infuse. Go Sammy. Nexus if you could, but if not you'll be happy with the infuse for awhile still.
Or you can wait for his big brother the "note" to make it through immigration

Hi everyone, I'm am very curious to see how everyone is liking there Skyrocket? I purchased the LG Thrill 4G about 2 weeks ago and love the 3D features and I think personally it is a solid phone, but the fact that it has Android 2.2 is really killing me, and there are some minor issues with the phone such as crappy WiFi signal, supposed 4G signal strength but really its H+ and the DL speed never goes above 3Mbps, 3D features are actually pretty amazing but only flaw I've seen is while recording 3D Videos the audio is not in sync with the video at all and the LG Thrill 4G is missing the best 3D feature that its counterpart the LG Optimus 3D has which is the 3D Game Converter, my only other leaning factor to not keep the LG Thrill 4G and get the Skyrocket is because the dev community for LG Thrill is very tiny, and I'm a flashaholic LOL....anyways if your still reading please let me know your rants and raves about the Skyrocket, don't just tell me the good either if there is any issues please let me know about them. So far I've only seen one bad thing about the Skyrocket and that is the thing about At&t controlling what apps can connect to data and some websites not working on the browser.

I had a LG G2X on T-Mobile when it first came out. It's the reason I'm on AT&T. LG provides atrocious support, half their devices are still on 2.2, and they're totally clueless about s/w on high-end phones. I'd dump it while you're still in your remorse period and get the SR, ASGS2, or Vivid. Anything will be better in the long run for both s/w and dev support. Read the G2X forum if you want to see what life with an LG phone looks like.
Skyrocket is superior. Noone will argue that. It's all about what you need/like/want.

Doesnt the thrill also only have 512 megs ram? Also the skyrocket is confirmed definately recieving android 4.0 ice cream sandwich. And the super amoled display drfinately much better. Go to att and play with one i bet with in the first 5 minutes you will have made up your mind.
Yes I exchànged the SGII for the Skyrocket and really like the device. Not much bigger or bulk compared to the SGII. The HTC Vivid is also another great device which I am testing as well. The screen resolution on the Vivid is great. So far, both devices are great and each has its pros and cons.
Test out both at the store and you can judge which will work best for you.

I've had mine for one day and I like it a lot. A definite powerhouse phone. I came from the Captivate. I need to get BLN working via a modified kernel so I can run Blinky for notifications, and a modified mail.apk that strips Exchange pin requirements. Hope I can find the right ROM and kernel for this soon. I haven't done any ROM research just yet.
Thought this was a good place to post this comment. After transferring videos filmed with my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 S II Skyrocket to my Windows 7 desktop pc (filetype is MP4), the video and audio are out of sync / not in sync / mis-aligned. File size was a mere 30MB.
This was true of Quicktime, RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, etc.
Anyone else having a similar experience?
I haven't had issues with out of sync videos. I've uploaded videos from the SR directly to Facebook, and they turned out great. Also uploaded them to my Windows 7 PC using "Dropbox," which worked great.
To answer the question from the original poster - I love my SR. Came from an iPhone, and won't go back. Having too much fun with the SR, love the big screen, the speed, the capacity, what's not to like? My only gripe is the battery life, but I've had the same issues with other smartphones, so it just comes with the territory.
