Captivate bricked

[AndreaCristiano]

Bricked captivate and best buy was sold out. So now I am stuck with an HTC aria until they get more. No comparison. The only pluses that the HTC has is a led light notifications and what feels like a slightly better build quality. Other than that phone sucks

You think not having froyo is bad shit try having eclair on an inferior phone makes me never wanna complain about slow updates again. Sunday can't coke.soon enough

Do you still get the white at&t screen, have you tried a jig?

 

[AndreaCristiano]

After trying everything I swapped it now I have the HTC aria can't wait till I get the captivate back

How did you brick it? Not sure why you're knocking the Aria it's a great phone. Not fully comparable to the Captivate but it's no piece of shit.

What happens sunday? What are you going to do with your bricked phone?

i am not nor did I say the aria is a piece of shit. Just coming from a captivate its a definite downgrade. Dunday I exchange the Aria for a captivate again.

UPDATE!!! So Sunday came and I went to best buy to get a new captivate and alas there were none so I was not happy with keeping the ARIA at all so the guys at best buy let me swap for whatever I wanted got a NEXUS S OMG this phone is awesome I like it so much better than the captivate and the EDGE on AT&T doesnt affect me as im on wifi 99% of the time freaking sweet!! If you guys have any questions let me know

I'm sure the S is great but I couldn't imagine being stuck on edge

 

[AndreaCristiano]

I'm sure the S is great but I couldn't imagine being stuck on edge

The only time i would have edge is on the road on at my home and restaurant which i work 65 hours a week im on wifi so there really are maybe a handful of hours that I have edge so its not a real worry to me

My reason for not buying a NS yet. Really hoping for another version of the NS with AT&T 3G bands....

Did you think if you were only using edge, you would be satisfied with the speeds?

It didnt bother me i mean I dont really browse the web on my phone unless im at work( dont have a computer) and i have wifi there. Also I'm also not so worried the difference 3 -5 seconds or 9-12 isnt really huge we just make it out to be

here is my advice to you turn of your 3G for a day or two and see if you can deal. then go from there

No expandable storage via MicroSD on the Nexus S. Major dealbreaker for me. 3G aside (which I'd also need).
