[Q] Samsung Captivate Glide

I'm planning to buy a new phone and this phone comes up as one of the few that I am thinking of. I do need it to be unlocked and rooted...
Any developers thinking of picking up this phone? Or this phone is dead on the water?
Thanx.

I actually just bought one last night, and was wondering the same thing.
I'm a *nix guru (coming from an n900) and would be happy to start playing around, but I am new to Android.
I haven't been able to find the stock firmware yet, which makes me nervous; even if I (soft)brick, I'm hosed.
If anyone manages to find the stock Samsung rom (or even the Rogers one), let me know, and I'll get started rooting.

I picked up the Rogers version, Galaxy S Glide, and Im pretty excited to see some custom roms for it.
Also, where is the best place to post and find info about this phone? I dont think there is a dedicated section on XDA yet.
Update: I actually looked around XDA and found the "Request a Forum" thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301121
Anyone interested in this device should help out with a request!

We need to somehow get the mods to make a Samsung Captivate Glide forum before anything will happend...
Although for it to warrant a forum I'm guessing we need a lot of people (that has the phone) and developers that want to do something to the phone.
We have one person for developer here, I guess we need more?
And we need to contact a higher person on XDA....
Anyone knows anyone?

[Q] How much is a Casio Cassiopeia E-700 worth today?

It's exactly the same as the Casio EM-500 (can't post links yet, there's a review on pocketpcfaq.com ), except with twice the RAM and never sold outside Japan.
I've been offered one, but the seller wants me to name a price. I've no idea how much money this thing's worth, but I would definitely like to play with it (I have a thing for old portable electronics).
Thanks.

[Q] OPINIONS WANTED - BEST !0" for the $

Hey guys,
I'm looking for the best 10" tablet for the $.
I left my GTAB on the roof of my car and drove off, it hung n for a block, unfortunately I was 5 miles away when I realized it.
The frame as 100% intact, the screen ...well that's not doing so well.
I know someone is giong to suggest fixing this one, and yes im sure I can get a new screen from amazon fro $100 (a guess), but its time. Im using an NC w/ ICS for the moment, but need a bigger screen.
The GTAB when I bought it was $200- $250 and I REALLY cant justify much more than that. I know in the early days a lot of guys were buying off Alibaba, adn I get an update from them weekly, just wondering if anyone has bought from them recently.
Looking forward to some solid recommendations
thanks
J

So rather than posting in the HD2 Android specific forums, you post in the general forums? Anyway, this guide makes it as simple as is physically possible. Honestly, with an HD2 you don't have to worry about bricking it at all, you should really be fine as long as you read properly.
@manmad, he means Windows Mobile 6.5 rather than WP7. The former is a crappy OS with tonnes of lag and no apps. The latter is a brilliant OS which is sleek and fluid, but sadly still lacks apps.

[Completed] New Phone

I know this is stupid...and i may not get any replies over here...
but still giving it a try...
My budget is around 20k (300$), and i needed a phone which i can give it a future update as well. Since Android L is gonna come too, i would really want it in my phone. I'm currently using Huawei Y 200, and it pretty much sucks...! (NO CUSTOM ROMS MADE FOR IT )
so guys please help me out here!!!!!!!!

Hi there,
I'd recommend asking that question in the off-topic section of XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/off-topic
Since it doesn't really regard any form of development or needing a phone to be fixed, it is probably best placed there.
You will find lots of keen XDA users who I'm sure will input and tell you what they think.
Good luck!
P.S: I'd go for the Moto G
