I love my Captivate to death! Its the best phone of its generation, in my opinion! At the moment, I wouldn't trade it for any other phone out there.

You know what they say: Once you go SAMOLED, you never go back.

100th post! WOOT WOOT

I'd trade mine for Galaxy S II hahah.

It's called a "ROM" because it gets loaded into the "Read Only" section. This is why it's called "flashing" instead of installing. Tho what the custom firmware gets loaded onto is not really a ROM chip, but special partitions on the "internal SD" that are set as read only.

From what I've learned our phones don't have any actual ROM chips in them.

Since I forgot to mention last time...

I'm very happy with my Captivate and see no other phone worth giving it up for. It does everything I could possibly want a smart phone do and plenty of extras that are "neat" if nothing else. I also consider that I'm one of the lucky few since my phone is yet to show it suffers from a single one of those quality control flaws, in the 4 months I've had it so far.

Thanks for your informative answer! I assume it would be a good idea to keep my phone stock until the warranty expires, or until I have problems *fingers crossed*

I really liked my phone, bought it the day they came out. But it got slower and slower until I finally couldnt take it. So I loaded Serendipity on it and holy crap I love this phone now. Its fast, it doesn't stutter, gps works, I don't have to reboot every other day. It basically fixed every little software gripe I have except I still don't have the 2.1 volume button behavior. This its how the phone should have ben released!

Edit: there are at least 2 decent scrabble games, words with friends and wordsmith.

Can you tell my what slowed your phone down? Do you think it was some apps?

I checked these out, but I'm looking for classic scrabble against the computer, or in this case, the phone. The iphone has a great version, I don't know why it's not available for android.

BUT - I am not going back to iphone because after my post yesterday, I went and looked at a coworker's iphone just to refresh my memory, and I'm glad I did, because the screen looks sooo small compared to the captivate! NO GOING BACK.

Not sure what slowed the phone down, I have more apps on this serendipity then I ever had before and its still super fast.
