    @BigTymez1 Its alive. Cyanogenmod 7 has been released as an experimental thing. It works good for everyday use. you can get it at cyanogenmod’s site.

  3. BigTymez1 says:

    @Konnerific is the 2.3 thing dead or are you still working? i got some old buggy 2.2 from like december…wud that b official or not in options it looks offical.

  4. Konnerific says:

    @rafalHTCHERO i know lol. I flashed it to my captivate, but there was some jacked up bootloader so it bricked my phone when i tried flashing back.

  5. rafalHTCHERO says:

    youtube.com/watch?v=qT0Q-75nFu4 this is offical beta 2.3.2 on galaxz S

  6. zoics1 says:

    @Konnerific True. I felt so left out. Everyone’s been talking about 2.2 for almost a year!

  7. Konnerific says:

    @zoics1 thank god AT&T and samsung finally released official froyo. took em long enough

  8. zoics1 says:

    @vimpel80 I have a captivate and the GPS on it took me in circles. Literally! I upgraded to 2.2 and now it works just fine. I almost forgot that it didn’t work when it had 2.1.

    Thukthukthukthukthuk CHOO CHOOO

  10. Konnerific says:

    @vimpel80 yes it as GPS built in, but it’s fucking shit. If you want a working GPS, You’re going to have to root and install a custom rom that has a working GPS fix in it, and it’ll speed your phone up. The stock rom is slow as sin because of touchwiz, and at&t’s bloatware. they also lock it so you can’t sideload apps, Which android is supposed to be able to do out of the box. Rooting and a custom rom will fix that.

  11. vimpel80 says:

    i am looking forward to buy captivate,can someone let me know wether it has a inbuilt gps or android apps(if yes how much it cost),so that i dont have to subscribe for att monthly navigation service.thanks.

    @Konnerific i hear trains,

  13. Konnerific says:

    @ronii1123 No. It’s way too buggy and unstable. I don’t think much progress has even been made..

  14. ronii1123 says:

    Do you use this for evreyday?

  15. whycantiskate says:

    hey can you tell me where you dled the rom and which kernel

  16. Konnerific says:

    @kakulukia2009 uh.. no?

  17. kakulukia2009 says:

    are you inside a train????????

  18. KillerXtreme88 says:

    I dunno, I like the colors of 2.2 better, and don’t mind the touchwiz that much, if it was smoother and quicker then definitely much better..

  19. Konnerific says:

    @mohammadkamal2000 Nope. It has nothing of samsungs touchwiz crap on it. and thank god.

  20. mohammadkamal2000 says:

    is it going to run samsung’s touchwiz ui

  21. tn62105 says:

    @Konnerific
    i never had to use odin before…does ur phone power button work?? both myu volume and power button is defective…also my ear piece is screwed too!! flash does work on youtube..slow on other sites..i try to flash back to clock mode but no action..everything else is cool but i have to leave screen on or it will reset every so often and sometimes data does not work…any advice or updates ????

  22. Konnerific says:

    @tn62105 Take the battery out, Hold BOTH volume keys, Don’t hold the power button. Make sure Odin is on, and plug in the cord and it should take you to download mode.. If you don’t have download mode the three button combos.. You’re screwed.

  23. tn62105 says:

    and is the physical keyboard any good? im used to a 5 row layer keyboard, and this is different. is it easy to pick up and text?

  46. eambrausa says:

    Hey thanks for the video…

    I liked the Samsung Intercept a lot, the only reason keeping me from buying the Intercept is because I heard that internet is slow and the phone freezes a lot etc, but I also noticed people saying that Launcher Pro helps a lot, also Dolphin Browser…anyway, could you please make a video browsing the internet on the Intercept using 3G? Is the 3G internet any good?
    Thanks, peace!
