Official Captivate Flasher Anonymous (CFAT)

I think it's getting kind of ridiculous that I flash roms 50 times a week. My wife is mad at me, and my co-workers say I just haven't been the same. I feel it's time that I startOCFAT for those of us in deep rom flashing troubles and figure out how to get our lives straightened out.
Any suggestions?

I'm just glad to learn that I am not the only person suffering from flash addiction.
My name is Splashin and I am a flashing addict.

Hello i am betadan....
At first i started flashing just to have the newest OS. But even we got official 2.2 i still found my self flashing at least once per week...
And now with Gingerbread around the corner.... We are all doomed

Flash cm7. I used to be like you, now I haven't changed roms for nearly a month and a half.

i have a download jig in one hand and my cappy in the other and a spare OEM battery sitting in front of me and i dont know what im going to do with them....
lols...
and im waiting just a bit longer before i main-line some CM7. or do anyother ginger-powder....

What's the T stand for?

There's a reason I don't want to leave my Captivate. The ease of flashing and all the different options.
CM7 and GB coming too!

It is actually not funny. I flash way too much. I don't even use my phone for much other than flashing and reading about what to flash.
Cm7 looks like it is going to hols me for a bit

Originally, T=Thread but I took it out because it only sounds cool in the abbreviation. Another choice is CFAG = Cappy Flasher Anonymous Group. I don't know how many people want to be called CFAGs. Another choice is just CFA.

I flash maybe one rom a month, if even that. I ran assonance five point two for a long time. I don't feel as need to compulsively flash roms.

Yeah this whole flashing thing is kind of ridiculous if you have the slightest bit of an addictive/OCD personality.
Its a hobby. Don't be ashamed.

Add me to the CFAT list. Now monitoring the CM7 thread to make sure I don't bork anything. Don't even know why I read it. I bork things anyway.
Also, to support my flashing needs, I've been playing around with a Nook Color. Fun, but it ain't like playing with the Captivate.
CM7, CM7, CM7. Man, this can't be good for me.

[Q] G2x, SGSII or SGS4G?

Alright, I currently own an SGS4G and i love it but i feel as the development is very limited. While i appreciate all of the work that the devs have put in, I have noticed that other phone have a lot mor development and it doesn't seem as though our development community has that [email protected]$$ attitude that the community of other phones does. So, would it be wise to look at getting a G2x or an SGSII (if the US gets it)? I know @birgertime and @Krylon360 both have and develop for the G2x and I love Trigger and Bionix. So is it matbe time to look elsewhere?

First off I'm not gonna be one of those lil trolls saying "oh the devs put their heart out on their developement" type of deal. So imma say go for the SGSII cause its bigger, media powered, and will soon be more known than the iphone. G2x is just gonna be a phone that's know to us phone fanatics. SGSII is gonna be revolutionary...

But is it going to be released in the US? And thank you for not trolling, like i said, i love the devs for all of the work they put in, especially seeing as Krylon and birgertiome didn't have SGS4Gs of their own to model off of

I'm not impressed with my G2x, but it does have decent hardware. In my opinion, the battery is too small, it gets warm too easily, and what has really begun to bother me is it seems like data seems to stop working randomly; it'll look normal and show that it is sending info, but won't receive data for a minute for no reason. It did this on stock, and now on cm7 rc1. Not a deal breaker, but definitely my reasoning for using my sgs4g as my daily driver over it.
The processing power is great, development is good, and it's a good "feeling" phone to hold, but it definitely doesn't seem as easy to dev for as your typical vanilla android phone.

IF you decide to swap out I would forget about the g2x. Wife had it and it was just bad. I'm sure the us will get the sgs 2 but you may want to have a look at the Hercules that is coming as well.

Its called a G2X not gx2 and i own the phone and my girl has the sensation and I don't know about other g2x's but mine has no problems and the rom I'm running makes my phone so much better that the sensation or any other phone on ur minD .....!!!

Been a comp geek for a # of years and have recently began learning how to dev for android phones. I own the sgs4g and I absoluteabsolutely love it. I am fascinated by the outsoutstanding work the developers have produced on this phone thus far. I've read every post and have not ever had one problem flashing anything. I for one am extremely grateful for, not only the work put in, but also the vast knowledge that has been posted. These have become a shortcuts or fast tracks for me in learning how to develop and helping me to avoid some pitfalls that these guys have so gratuitously posted huge street sighns for us to read. Thanks guys.

I'd personally wait for the Galaxy S II. The performance is said to be greatly improved, and the reviews for it are beyond belief (meanwhile it isn't even in the US yet.)
The G2X does seem to have quite a few bugs, and the battery life is said to be even worse then the GS4G.
What I'd do is either switch to Verizon and get the Droid Charge, or wait for the Galaxy S II.
Again, I can wholeheartedly say the developers for this phone have done some hard work, and need some well-deserved praise.
Raver, he never meant his post to be rude or to insult developers like yourself in any way.

Geez dude, kinda on the sensitive side there. He said he respected you guys and meant no harm in his comment.
As for the OP's questions, the SGS2 is the obvious winner but who knows when it will come to the US. Sucks that even Canada is getting it first. If I were you, consider the Sensation. I like Samsung's hardware 10x better than HTC's but since you love development then I would chose that phone. CM7 is going to be awesome on there. And since it's HTC you will most likely get a plethora of AOSP ROM's, Sense ROM's and MIUI ROM's for you to constantly play with.
But anyways, I love the SGS4G, wish I owned one. But you're right, development will most likely be scarce for this phone for a while so that's something to think about.
Good luck!

Hercules all the way. I love my SGS4G.
My friend and my uncle and aunt all have the G2X and nothing but issues with it. Overheats and shuts down and have to pull the battery sometimes while charging. Random reboots. I had my friend flash Bionix on it and he was having a couple issues with it. It seemed to drain his battery much quicker than stock and had a couple other issues with it. He didn't want to try any other ROM for it cuz I told him Bionix should be the best one. I might flash my uncles G2X to see what the issues are again. My friend forgot what they were besides the battery drain and he used Green Battery & later Juice Defender and it didn't help. He still gets random reboots once in a while. Or won't power on from sleep/lock and have to pull the battery.
Thanks to all the devs support in our community and other communities as well. I'm a flashing fiend lol.

I couldn't recommend the sensation anymore than the g2x. It has just as many issues; some people are actually selling their sensation to go back to the g2x. Both are fast, both have issues, more development currently for the g2x. The sensation is a better looking phone though
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

The Sensation is badass. Even with a locked bootloader and no development it's insanely fast once you replace the Sense UI.... etc. Higher resolution, better feel in your hand...blah blah blah. As far as picking a phone goes... just avoid anything that uses nVidia. If you do that you should be okay. I found it ammusing to hear of screen bleed and jittery displays... after their company's desktop video cards went through the same type of issues. haha. nVidia = FAIL
but again... i'm just a guy in the forums.

This is probably a stupid question but would it be possible to buy a Canadian GSII and then unlock it and use it on T-Mobile in the US

Yeah so far the speculation shows that each carrier will be getting a Samsung Galaxy S2 variant. The T-Mobile one hasn't come up and some ppl think it might be the Hercules but no one really knows (most people think the Hercules is similar to the Infuse because of screen size and processor)
I hope what I said was correct.

When does it stop, what are you after?

I've been running CM7 for over 2 months now and I have stopped coveting any new roms, or any tweaks at all. I came to Android from iPhone when the Dell Streak came out and I was obsessed with what new things I could do with it. I couldn't wait for DJSteve or someone to tweak it some more. I came to Infuse with that same motivation and flashed and flashed and flashed whatever folks came out with just to try it. Then I got CM7 and only waited a short time for some small kinks to be ironed out and I can't think of anything I want my phone to do (although having less shutter lag on the camera would be great). So, with IOS you have the same OS for a year or so and get some improvements, but with XDA and the awesome DEVS you really get all kinds of options.....So here I am, extremely happy with my phone, rarely checking XDA for anything new and I'm wondering..........what "more" do you want? ..........

+1 on the Bluetooth .. would be SWEET if someone can ever get it working.
On another side, also with CM7 .. for the Infuse, fix the front-facing camera resolution issue .. this camera ain't 640x480 only !!!

I want it ALL THE WORLD.....

The world is not enough...
Bluetooth would be nice. I'd also like to see some real 4G. I know it is in certain places, and it has nothing to do with the developers...
Hoping when gingerbread is finally released officially for our phones, maybe we will see some small improvements... but like you said... there's not much besides the tiny tweaks... and maybe.... getting them to fly .... haha
EDIT: OH YA!! I almost forgot the most important thing... I would like to see reliable working GPS... I have tried all the tricks I could find and it takes soooo long to get a lock and when I finally do.... suddenly I am a mile off course... Samsung GPS.... tisk... tisk

Part of the fun of Android is that you have the choice. You can take something and be perfectly happy with it like cm7 and run with it, or you can push on to the limits and invent new things as you go. That's the beauty though is that it's up to you, not the company releasing it, not the community, not your mom. It's YOUR choice how far you take it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium

I'll be happy when I can get a ROM that will connect to a PS3 controller and be able to output HDMI video. After that, I'll probably stop checking XDA altogether except once every few weeks for an ICS ROM.

Jelly Bean Discussion Thread

This will be the One and Only thread about JB discussion. Anything JB goes here. Any other thread will be locked.
Cheers
Edit: No ETA

Awesome. Couple things I want to bring to the table.
1) @prbassplayer: Asking for an ETA should be fine, people want to know an ETA for something they're excited for. The release of ANYTHING (movies, games, etc) all have people wanting a release date.
2) How new does 4.1 actually seem? Code wise I mean; do devs need to change the hell out of the GNex ROM, or is just many small things that break when tried on our phone.
3) Finally high res contact pictures
4) My friend's running JB, and it's sick. Be excited for this.
5) I was hoping for integration of Gtalk, G+ messenger, SMS, Gvoice and all their other chat programs. The ideal of a unified messaging system for all their services + SMS is just too awesome. I'm actually a little unsure why thye haven't done this.

The release of Movies, games, etc usually mean money for the production side. Devs here do this for free (apart from donations). No ETA's. Its out when the devs feel its worth releasing.
Cheers

So soon cleaning thread. On Topic JB
Cheers

Guys, drop the eta debate please. Lets keep this a thread worth having. Flame and expectation free. It is not why its here. Moving on.....
What is the feature from jb that you are most excited to see? The previously mentioned hi def contact pictures is appealing to me, since I put individual contact shortcuts on my launcher home page. Hoping for the best on this. We have some great devs working on it.

Google Now, Project Butter, and the notifications. I'm also glad they finally put in high res contacts.
Honestly, all I'm missing from Android now is a unified messaging service. They already have the potential, just need to implement it.
Also, I'm excited ಠ_ಠ will now be a native symbol between phones. ಠ_ಠ

Project butter, and notifications! High res contacts is cool but theres already an app that fixes that.. so they just making it built in finally. (as it should have already been)

The problem is Gmail contacts actually, when you wipe for a ROM it looses all the high res pics when syncing. So I'm actually not sure if this inclusion will help at all?
Also HUGE thing that people may have not noticed, watch the demo here. The program autocorrects itself for context. From know to though.
How big a change, in terms of coding and implementation, is JB? *Note, NOT asking for an ETA, Devs take as long as you want/need* I'm genuinely curious as it seems like a minor change compared to GB to ICS, so I'm not sure how that translates to kanging it for our phone.

I really like the stuff I'm seeing with Google Now. I love stuff like that. Butter is definitely a nice touch but honestly I never feel like my phone is lagging enough for it to bother me.
Can't wait for my Nexus 7 to get here so I can start playing with it!

Glad to see a forum, I bought this device for my mom and hope to see devs get behind it. With an unlockable bootloader, anything can be done with the device

Since there are no mods here yet, can I be the first troll? *starts grafting the walls*
lol jk

why is it taking soooo long to restore 8600 text messages??? Actually, why does it not limit people to 300 like I checked. Would knock off a couple thousand easy. i have limits set in gosms and stock to no avail.
And it feels weird having a phone that doesn't say Samsung on it. It's been about four years. Would've been longer if Sammy would've made the i550.
Will say, the Q charges a lot quicker than the Epic ever did with or without a charge only cable. Keys have a bit more travel than the Epic's. Doesn't feel like a good thing at the moment, but I'm sure it's more of just what I'm used to. Same goes for the tab key, weird punctuation placement and the annoying on screen keys. What's the point of having onscreen buttons if there is so much bezel space at the bottom. Phone feels light and plasticy, but not in a bad way. At least there's no chromed plastic. Slider seems solid. Screen is definitely bright. Colors aren't oversaturated, and I still see a touch of pixelization that probably would be non existent if it were HD and not qHD.
Hopefully there will be some worthwhile development for this thing. Cheers all.

Alright! I am getting CM9 and will work with some other peoples to get Shabby's device tree fleshed out. Hopefully we can get that up and running pretty quickly so we can move onto CM10/AOKP
Also, I ordered the phone today - hope to have it here soon!

My wifey wants this phone but she said she wants to wait till ROMs come out for it. Was shocked when she said that I think I got her spoiled on ROMs from her epic 4g lol.

why is it taking soooo long to restore 8600 text messages??? Actually, why does it not limit people to 300 like I checked. Would knock off a couple thousand easy. i have limits set in gosms and stock to no avail.
And it feels weird having a phone that doesn't say Samsung on it. It's been about four years. Would've been longer if Sammy would've made the i550.
Will say, the Q charges a lot quicker than the Epic ever did with or without a charge only cable. Keys have a bit more travel than the Epic's. Doesn't feel like a good thing at the moment, but I'm sure it's more of just what I'm used to. Same goes for the tab key, weird punctuation placement and the annoying on screen keys. What's the point of having onscreen buttons if there is so much bezel space at the bottom. Phone feels light and plasticy, but not in a bad way. At least there's no chromed plastic. Slider seems solid. Screen is definitely bright. Colors aren't oversaturated, and I still see a touch of pixelization that probably would be non existent if it were HD and not qHD.
Hopefully there will be some worthwhile development for this thing. Cheers all.
