    Captivate to S3?

    I'm curious if anyone has gone from Captivate to the S3; and if so, are you happy? I decided against S2. I wasn't quite ready for upgrade, then a friend got one and it was just slightly cooler but had such worse battery life. I figured I'd just wait for the one to follow. In the meantime...

    Help Power Toggle Widget

    This is a minor issue, but is there any way to customize the look of the power toggle widget? Is there a truly functional on/off widget similar to the stock option, with a customizable look perhaps? Yes, a minor issue. Any options you know of? I esp. care about GPS and Sync, true on/off...

    Help Silence Start-Up?

    I must be missing something obvious, or at least I hope, but I'd really like the phone to start quietly. If I wanted to turn this thing on in a place where I wanted to be silent, I wouldn't dare.

    Best GPS Back-tracker?

There are a few places where it's weirdly easy to get lost, far away enough from anything that would help you know your orientation/direction. I am new to Android (just got a Samsung Captivate), but so far I'm seeing parking...

    Help Bluetooth, voice calling, visual voicemail?

    I am joining the Captivate crowd. Currently browsing deals (frustratingly, most won't allow me to choose the small plan I require). I read a few places that you can't use voice command/control when the phone is on bluetooth. Has there been any change to this since it was first released? My...

    Samsung Captivate vs Sony Xperia X10

    I am stuck with AT&T for service. I want to be able to call (duh, but ... yes, I do care about signal strength, decent call quality, speaker use, bluetooth), check reviews, look up a website, get directions w/o AT&T's monthly fee, take casual pics/video for sharing, play music, occasionally...
