I've noticed that a lot of the roms for the samsung galaxy s 4g and mytouch 4g are not reviewed on YouTube. I know a lot of people don't just like flashing roms before even knowing how it runs or how it looks. You can't always tell by a screenshot. So stop by my YouTube channel and request a rom review! I have a couple Mytouch 4g rom reviews but I would be up to doing reviews on the new roms available for the Galaxy s 4g! I'm not trying to promote myself in any way. I am simply trying to help out around here since I'm not the developer type! Stop by, subscribe, message if you want a review, and stay tuned! I have reviews on apps, roms, unboxings, and much more android goodness!

Thanks for the support so far guys! I will try to get more reviews going soon! I have a life to live too. [:
It'll be great if you get the first 5 roms at the top of the dev section reviewed.
I will get on top of that, I just need more samsung supporters. Right now I only have mytouch 4g supports. Lol, but I will try to get one up tonight.
That would be really helpful, especially with the two newest roms: unnamed and sweet child of mine. I'm curious about them and would really like to see what it's like before flashing.
I like this its original good job man
if you ain't first you're last
This is great!!!!!

*coughwaitforupdatearound12amtodaycough*
lol bad cough sorry
Haha It'll be on the updated version then!
some of the roms are incomplete or in beta and alpha stages will you do reviews? For each update?
Yes I will look in to that. Don't worry. Soon you will have to not only rely on screenshots.

Check the post, added the 'sweet child of mine' video review
Good work! It looks like you were using a tripod for SCOM right? I was gonna recommend it after watching the MIUI review since the camera was moving around quite a bit.
Thanks for the videos.
Nope I just kept my hand a lot steadier. I will be getting a tripod soon hopefully. It will make these videos a lot easier! thanks btw.
Unnamed rom now reviewed. Check post for link. [:
This is definetly a great idea you should probably do a review on valhalla black since that's one if the best roms we have

All links pulled due to XDA Request after an XDA member complained I was only out for profits to a moderator on a few products I have. Due to the fact I link to my JIG and a few other things in many videos, I was asked to pull any content relating to this.
I will still be offering all this great material at my website. Just go to google and search for MobileTechVideos.
good idea, thanks for the video
Awesome review!
Quadrant it fixed now
All 720p decode/encode was busted
DG! Question and feel free to say no by all means but maybe I can get your attention with out a PM or post in your ROM thread which I'm sure is hard to ever see for you.
I am adding a download page on my website and wondered if I could also host your ROM's there? I wanted to host lots of things from ROMs, to useful CWM packages to open source apks and others. I completely understand if you do not want me to do that and I wanted to ask before doing so. PM me if you see this...I've pm'd you on the subject once but doubt you saw it as I'm sure your box is through the roof on PM's.

Heh, ya, it gets maxed out every week or so...
That's fine tho.
I have been looking to flash my phone with a ROM but I can never decide which one to go with so at least now I can get some insight into what some of these do and how fast they are.
I will be looking forward to seeing these every week.
Thanks for taking the time and doing the great side by side comparisons. I look forward to checking out your weekly videos!
Nice review. Is the sound quality issue you mention the result of the Captivate having unique hardware in the form of the "Audience" voice-processing chip that the I9000 does not? It's a shame that one would have to give up support of this circuitry for the sake of running a custom ROM.
I remember reading about this a while back but thought it had been sorted out/fixed.
Good review. Liked the comparison.
There are some interesting comments on your perception video about lack of support for the audience processing chip

Yes I agree. I'm not sure if that's the correct reason as the speaker phone function works flawlessly but it's interesting to say the least.
subscribed to your channel. awesome idea
Love the videos, keep it up!
Phoenix Rising 3.0 Rom Review added. See it under rom reviews! Or here! http://youtu.be/so7OUPykv0U
This community has just received a +1 by having you around.
Nice work with the vids and pretty informative for people looking to get details and previews before flashing. I'm just going to go around thanking your posts.
Hopefully people can recognize the amount of time that you're putting into this stuff and be thankful that you have a Captivate in your hand.
Lovin the videos and website. Thank you for the time you are putting into this I think you have something great going here. If you & DG ever decide to get different phones or leave the Galaxy S community I will defiantly follow.
Great videos, but noob question.
How are the roms that different from each other?
Most of them seem to be running similar kernels and you can still flash whichever ones you want for lagfix or OC/UV.
Do they mostly differ in terms of appearance/default apps? How about speed/performance?
You messed up the video!
the left phone has 3.0( due to themed google search)

My GTab video blog is up and running... I have about 5 or 6 videos so far... the first 3 are the basic clockwork mod rooting, flashing a rom (Vegan 5.1) and flash/market fix. I also did one showing the hulu fix... and I will be posting a new one soon on getting swype running on the GTab.
I have plans to do Rom reviews, apps, and games in the future.

Nice I bookmarked it. Thanks and I like the site design. Well done!
Thery useful video blog. Thanks!
Sweet, i'm getting my GTAB tomorrow so I'll definitely be checking out your site.
very nice!
Thanks
Thanks for adding to the mix.....
Outstanding! Thanks for the extra work, I'm sure many of us will benefit from it.
I plan to follow advice found on XDA and do the following:
1) Open and run the device stock for a bit.
2) Do the OTA update and evaluate. I may be purchasing one for my mother and I think the updated stock will be plenty for her to check email, do facebook and check the weather?
3) Look at Vegan 5.1 and Supplement as well as Clemsyn's kernel.
4) Look at TNT
5) Have fun with it!
Nice blog. My gTab should be coming in tomorrow so get to play around with it.
I'm a stickler for written directions, but a video to follow is even better! Great work!
Suggestion: Any chance of getting a vid up with setting up nvflash, getting the tab in apx mode, possibly pulling/pushing files from/to the tablet?
Thanks again!
You all rock... thanks for the kudos!!!!
@Dueces99: NVFlash is my only hurdle right now... I consider myself tech savvy but for some reason, I couldn't figure that one out... YET... I'm sure I just need to do some more research, but if anyone knows the best how-to on that I would really appreciate it... because lets face it... the Viewsonic Birds have to go... I've seen that logo over a decade ago...
Thanks again everyone... pass on the good word and I'll keep posting videos!!!!
I just checked out the site. Looks great, good work.
Very nice!
Before I say anything, you know that your site is awesome and that you are awesome.
That said, you're no Steve Jobs. When Steve Jobs first presented the ipad in his conference, you could tell from the videos that he tried very hard to present the strengths and cover up the weaknesses. For instance, everytime he pressed a soft button, he always gave it about half a second for the ipad to respond. In your video, I noticed that you kept pressing it really fast and then having to repress the screen.
Yes, your videos are awesome. But if I were you I wouldn't quit my day job to become a salesman LOL
Excellent site- thank you for your hard work
hahaha!

Very true... This is just a hobby and I do every video in one take... Its more about function over form... I'm sure I spent more time on the logo and intro music than I did the composure of the videos... but for what its worth, I will try to rehears a little more so I don't look entirely like a noob!
When my Gtab comes in tomorrow, your site will be on my list of 'have to learn from'. Thanks, my man!!!
Very nice work, thank you!
Gotcha bookmarked.

Hey Guys,
Here we go again. G2/nook. now TB.
Who is in for making donations to make a fully working AOSP or CM7 version of thunderbolt (mecha) with FULL LTE/3G and WIFI. Everything must work. Or bounty will not be collected and returned to people.
Rules:
1) As above. Everything must work!
Wifi/ Blue tooth / video / cam back and forth / video / full playback of video (no hacks) smooth video playback even on youtube.
You may donate as much as you want:
I have been known to do this for the community. The person/group who gets it. Can give it to charity to xda or buy beer. I really don't care.
Donation link: Removed Link [Under Moderator Review]
If people dont like this idea. Please state below and I shall remove this post or have a mod do so.
Thanks!
Reserved.
Also. Mod if you feel this needs to go to general. You may move it. Sorry if i mis-placed this.
Why are we doing this when someone is working on it already?

agreed ^^ CM is almost done, they have lte working and 3g, just finishing up on wifi, blue tooth and some others. Cyan said in his interview nightlies should start soon.
Most of that is already working in CM7, is it not? No need for a bounty imo, they will get it if its not done already.
Oh well. Lets see what people think. Sharing is caring
I don't think its a bad idea as some may, I know cyanogen's peeps are working on it but cyanogen and his team aren't the only developers out there who may wanna get in on this. I say go for it, competition is always a good thing! As long as the person or persons who release it first get the donations promised go for it. Moved to general.
Wow this why I like the Eris community better. No one asked for bounties, and everyone got along. This is ridiculous, when you bought the phone, you paid for what you got and if u want something else then wait till the devs do it at their own pleasure.

I don't like this idea and will be reviewing this thread with other mods.
If u want to donate u should look for a way too donate to slayer and his crew who r spendn a lot of their time to get this up and running for us..
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Also the donations for the Nook were never for a bounty. It was to get more devices to more devs in hopes of getting something going.
Sure.. while I'm at it, I'll also donate to your "Wedding fund", Which when clicked, takes you to your "Dev Phone" fund. Geez man.. how many donation scams are you running? lmao, get a J-O-B.
inb4 Op makes $200,000/yr has 3 houses and 4 cars and I'm a loser.
Yea i'd say shut this down and donate straight to cyanogen if you want.

hey folks,
I started a new blog dedicated to Android gaming news and reviews. I know what you're probably thinking, yet another gaming blog. Even so, I would love for you guys to just take a peak. It's called The Android Arcade. I know there have been folks trying to start up a blog but fail to make it through their first month but my team and I are seeing this to the end. I have staffed the site with great writers and we publish articles at least twice in a day (more as folks start discovering us).
We have also created a dedicated game section where you can quickly see which games are worth your time. Think of it as a curation of the noteworthy games. The list is scarce at the moment but we'll be adding a lot more soon. The game section could be found at:
http://games.theandroidarcade.com
So I hope you guys stop by and check us out. If you have any suggestions or games you'd like us to cover, please let u know. A phone/tablet app will be released in the next couple months
Cheers!
I've seen your posts on /r/Gaming every now and then. Keep it up, man! I check every one of your posts! My username on Reddit is Noontoker17.

I appreciate the support. We like the /r/androidgaming subreddit to be sure to check us out there too!
Yeah, that's what I meant. /r/AndroidGaming. Whoops.

Looks good - you might want to consider doing percentages and recommendations. Works really well the way they do it on theregister.co.uk and when the stick a "recommended" sticker you take note - especially if you're covering a large number of games.
