Update went well for me. It's nice to be able to like my phone again.
I'm now able to connect to my Mac. Things seem to be snappier and
games run smoother. Looking forward to keeping this phone for awhile
longer

Well, as youcan see, this is my first post on the board. I've had the Fascinate now for a few months. I got it used from my sister in law, I'm crossing over from a BB Curve. I absolutely love the Droid. Even more so that I realized the customization and personalization is even more vast then I originaly thought.
Here is a noob question. How to screen capture. I have downloaded the "shootme" app, but it tells me I need to be rooted. After searching, there are several posts saying the Fascinate doesn't need to be rooted for Shootme to work. So, I am lost.
I am also interested in making some themes / icons down the road. Will see what happens. Thank you.

it is a very simple process if you have upgraded to 2.2. you hold the back button and the power button at the same time and you hear the camera click and voila, you're done. this will not work if you are still using 2.1

Thnk you very much for that.
Here we are. Using Launcherpro, Fancy Widget, Circle Battery Widget, and Jorte.
After randomly posting a screenshot in a different (completely unrelated) thread, I received several PM's regarding the theme I was running. If you are seeking guidance in achieving this look (see below) then check out this thread:
I take no credit for this theme whatsoever (thanks go to the OP of the above referenced thread); I just simply read the instructions and configured my home-screens as I saw fit. Here are a few:
Main Home Screen
Entertainment Screen
Control Panel Screen
Preview
Lock Screen (Widget Locker)

Sorry, I didn't realize there was another one. Just saw the picture thread
One thing I noticed that helps a lot, is to
PLEASE LIST YOUR APPS/WIDGETS ON YOUR SCREEN SHOTS
Then there aren't a million questions about what's this and what's that. I don't know how many times people have asked what Tajm and Battstatt is
And a free app in the market to take screen shots is drocap2 (root only)
And here is an article about how to take screenshots without root
I'll start with some screenshots
I have Launcherpro Plus with a hidden notification bar, and some text icons that I can't remember where I got them
Lock Screen: WidgetLocker with Digital Clock (4x1)
Main Screen: Digital Clock (4x1)
Left Screen: Switchpro Widget, Smart Shortcuts, Vivid Icon Set applied with Bettercut, and Weatherbug Elite Widget
Right Screen: LauncherPro Calendar Widget
Wow, this looks amazing. So classy and clean. Very executive looking. Are the links that are in text at the foot of your screen created with "smartshortcuts"?

Wow, I haven't had that setup since September, lol.
I guess I don't quite understand your question. The icons in the dock are just icons that go to a particular app. They aren't "links" like in the third screenshot, which uses Smart Shortcuts. They're just .png images
The Samsung Fascinate is the Verizon version of the Samsung Galaxy S line of phones. Much like it's brothers, it includes the same 5.0MP camera capable of taking some of the best quality 720p HD video at 30fps. Unlike the other Galaxy S phones ... Read More
