What does a community mean to you?

First of all, thank you guys for offering your boxes. Secondly, if you wish to help me out, please do it in a PM, as I would rather not discuss this in the open forum. Thirdly, I don't understand why some of you are so set to profit off of a box. I don't mind paying to have it shipped. That is absolutely not a problem, but I would never dream of trying to sell a box to another user on this forum, let alone make a profit on something so trivial. I don't mean to complain about the generosity, but come on. Would any of you pay $15, $20, or $30 plus shipping for a box? So far these are the offers I have received. I have sent PMs to a couple of others who were generous enough to offer their box for merely the cost of shipping, but haven't received a reply from them just yet.

To give an example, I received a bunch of screen protectors from a certain company. I only ordered one of them, but I was sent 15 for some reason. Instead of selling them all, I figured it would have been nice to offer them to the community here for only the cost of shipping. As it turned out, I found a book of stamps I didn't know I had and got a pack of envelopes for $1, so I decided to refund the minute amount that I had asked for in the first place. I wound up giving and shipping them all for free. Here was the thread, if you were wondering.

I'm not asking anyone else to do the same thing. I know that shipping a box is considerably more costly than a forty cent stamp. I said I was willing to pay the shipping cost and even a small amount for the time spent on this. I simply feel that it's wrong to send me PMs with things like, "I will sell it to you for $20 plus the shipping cost. That is my offer. If you don't like it, then ask someone else." That was a direct quote from a PM sent to me by a certain user here after I asked him why he felt the box was worth so much.

The point is that this is a community of users. I'm not saying anyone has to do this. I'm asking the community to lend a hand to someone. I don't think it's too much to ask that other users not try to rip each other off here. And if it is, then perhaps this isn't the same site I once knew.

I like my HTC box, but I don't know what the T-Mobile one looks like. On the side of the box it says Windows Phone, which I like :)
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
The T-Mobile one is black instead of white, and has T-Mobile branding on the side, as far as I remember.
[HD2 Accessories] Mister B:
I like my T-Mob box as it's black & beautiful. I would never sell it for $20.

Like OP I like to keep box for accessories & device Retirement storage :-P

Someone will come up trumps so don't worry.

Will people sell a box for $20? Um yes, keep an eye on CrimeBay (eBay to the too trusting), they can make good money lol :-)

[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
I just had to replace my Leo under the insurance plan, and they sent me a replacement everything, excluding the box, of course. If anyone is willing to provide the T-Mobile box in good condition, I would offer a trade of a brand new battery. I will even fully charge it for you before I send it. A new battery for a useless box seems like more than a fair trade to me. I already have two of them, so I don't need a third.

It's first come, first serve, but I will likely give preference to the more active members.

Please send me PMs about this. Do not reply to the thread to make an offer, as I will ignore it. I prefer to conduct these matters in private.
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
I'm providing an update that user b3ltazar has offered to send me his T-Mobile Leo box in exchange for my new battery. I am waiting for the box to arrive in order to inspect it before sending the battery.

As per the forum rules, updates will be provided throughout the transaction.
[HD2 Accessories] AZWarChild:
If you havent got one yet pay shipping for the box and send the battery I have 2 Like New boxes.
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
No thank you. I'm already trading with someone. I'm just waiting for it to arrive.
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Since I have not received a response from user b3ltazar, I have begun a trade with user gatekeeper007. Again, I will await the arrival of the box to verify its condition before sending the battery.

Updates will be provided throughout the course of the transaction in this thread.

EDIT: Received a PM from b3ltazar stating the reason for the delay. No problem. :)

Lmfbo 30 dollars for a box
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
I haven't received any responses from gatekeeper007, so I'm asking for some help again.

I'm offering a trade of a brand new HTC OEM Leo battery for anyone who has a T-Mobile Leo box. Send me the box first so I can make sure it's in good condition, and I'll ship you your battery right away. Since the battery is small, I might even upgrade the shipping for you if it doesn't cost much.

Send me a PM if you are interested.
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Third time's a charm?

I've begun a deal with cobrien13 as a trade for his box and my spare battery. The thread will be updated as relevant info as the deal progresses.
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Since the last user, cobrien13, hasn't responded to my PMs or sent the box, I am opening the trade option again.

If anyone would like to have a brand new OEM HTC battery for their T-Mobile Leo box.

If you are interested in a trade, please PM me letting me know so. Please specify the condition of the box, as well as that is is actually the T-Mobile branded version. I am not offering to pay you, nor have you pay me. A brand new battery, for a box seems like a fair trade to me.
[HD2 Accessories] jsmccabe78:
per your request...here i am. :)

have the box; would love to trade for the battery and shipping costs.

please let me know details on how to send it to you.

cheers.
[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:

[HD2 Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Box was received yesterday afternoon in wonderful condition. I have just shipped the battery and sent a PM to jsmccabe78 with the tracking number. It should arrive on Tuesday afternoon. The battery was charged up to full last night. Enjoy! :)

I have been flashing my fascinate for a while now, looking to mod a captivate now. Im looking for something solid. Just looking thru your roms. I'm seeing that some people are having sleep of death on some roms. Also, I know nothing of your rom designations. Us on fascinate are on ec01 atm.. untill I'm more up to speed, what is a good, recent, official froyo, based rom? I prefer niceties, bln, voodoo stuffs, lockscreens, power options, acc batt, deodexed..

I will be doing more studys, but these 2 phones seem more diff than I thought they would be.. Voodoo and froyo are my bottom line..

Ps.. You guys are lucky to have so many custom roms.. I'm lost in your dev section.. however its a curse to new comers lol..

[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
Our official 2.2 is KB1, and as far as I know the only one that supports the noise cancellation hardware. Cog 4.3.1 is a kb1-based rom (and Torch may also be based on kb1, or I may have just been drunk when I read the description many moons ago).

Everything else seems to be based off of the international i9000 roms with reoriented kernels. Try Serendipity, it's pretty decent if you don't mind the i9000 lineage.

We also have MIUI and CM7. MIUI is based off of CM7, and CM7 is based off of the Nexus S source.
[Captivate General] KayvinM:
You can also check out FireFly, It's based of Rogers 2.2 and comes with the Speedmod Kernel which doesn't have the sleep death issues. It's solid and reliable annnd it's updated every thursdays..what more can you ask for :D
[Captivate General] OBatRFan:
I believe Fusion is KB1 based as well. KB1 is the only official Captivate Froyo. Personally, I recommend an i9000 ROM, as they're all 2.2.1 based. I'm running Inception right now, and having great success with it. It's only two days old, though, so probably not something you're ready to flash. Very stable and popular i9000 ROMS that I recommend are Serendipity and Continuum. My personal favorite is Precision, but if you go that route, download version 3.5, not 4.0, as 4.0 is still in alpha stage and has a few bugs. I hope my suggestions have helped in any way and welcome to the Captivate community!
[Captivate General] neh4pres:
Thanks for the responses,

Are you using cwm 3? Were still on cwm 2.5 on the fassy.. I know there was issues with edify scripting.. I'm looking into your beginners guide when I get on my pc later to see the differences in flashing. I feel a good amount of studying will be needed.. Also, do you have all in 1 odin to stock? And odin to stock froyo? Incase I create a bootloop.

1 more question. being that this is a gsm phone.. Do you still odin radio? Or are they included in the roms? I noticed that many rom posts here don't tell what radio to use, or what is compatible.

Thanks I advance, and sorry for picking brains

[Captivate General] OBatRFan:
I believe we're on CWM 3. something or other. Never had an issue with it.

We have an ODIN one click back to stock which is recommended to do before flashing and new ROM. As for the radio, I honestly have no clue about that.
[Captivate General] watsa:
yes modem is included in ROM package itself
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
Torch is kb1 based, but not updated in awhile.

We call them modems, not radios.

You should look at the Onix kernel. It's great.

Continuum v4 unthemed looks alot like stock.

Good luck, and welcome to the captivate forums.

[Captivate General] OBatRFan:
Are you trying to root so you can go to a custom ROM? If so, I wouldn't worry about rooting. I attached an update.zip that will get you CWM. Put the update.zip and the zip of whatever ROM you want to flash on your internal sdcard. Turn the phone off, hold both volume keys and the power keys. The AT&T logo should come up, keep holding the buttons. The logo should pop up again, now let go. it should go to recovery. Now select reinstall packages. The phone should reboot and go to recovery again. Select reinstall packages again and it should go to CWM. I'm assuming you should know how to flash a zip from here if you've had Fascinate experience. The flashing of the ROM will root your phone.

Hope this helps! If you have any questions, just ask.
[Captivate General] axis01:
Andromeda3 is based off the Georgio Armani Cappy. It's a 2.2 rom that has all the goodies you listed. The devs did a fantastic job on it. It's not updated very often because it doesn't need to be. It's fast, looks good, and has everything you want.

This has happened to me multiple times. Unplug, pull battery, restart ODIN, put battery in, and repeat the flashing process.

Try this version of ODIN: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989&highlight=ODIN

One-click, so need need for PDA and such. That's what I use, but it all depends on whether or not you have three button combo working. If that version doesn't work, just keep trying on both versions, switch USB ports each time.
[Captivate General] studacris:
we still use cwm 2.5.x.x because as was said 3.x.x.x have issues.

flashing to stock isnt needed anymore as all roms do a wipe, odin should only be used as a repair tool not a normal part of the process.

op just curious what was your phone running before you started odin? whoever posted the update.zip is right all this other stuff is just spinning your wheels. if it was on 2.1 then put that zip on the root of your sd reinstall packages twice and you will be in cwm, from there you can flash any rom. if you were on 2.2 then do a search for 3e recovery sighning and once you get that cracked follow the preceeding instructions
[Captivate General] neh4pres:
okay.. im all fixed now.. just to let everyone know, it was a computer issue (windows fail). and my usb was not talking correctly. a simple restart solved the issue.. i was worried i was in over my head, and i thank you all for helping. and i apologize for turning this page into a rescue center lol.

i will try that update zip now.. and im on my way to great roms im sure.. you are all a terrific bunch, and im glad to be a part of this forum

[Captivate General] ryude:
Welcome to the captivate community!

As said already, KB1 is the official captivate base and JS8 is the official i9000 base we are currently using. There are a few others too, but don't seem to be as popular.

KB1 seems to give slightly better battery life, but isn't as smooth/fast as i9000 based ROMs. Also where I live the KB1 didn't get very good signal reception and the i9000 modems got good signal.

Try out the big 3 ROMs first, as those are updated the most often. Serendipity, Firefly, Paragon. At least that's what the big 3 were last time I had a captivate :)
[Captivate General] OBatRFan:
Haha, not to be rude, ryude, but Paragon hasn't been updated since the beginning of March...

The Fascinate Refugee's Captivate ROM Guide

The Fascinate Refugee's Captivate ROM Guide ;-)

I kinda went the opposite direction (from Captivate to Fascinate), due to carrier issues, but I still mod and play with my (WiFi-only now) Captivate. My recommendations are as follows:

Entry-level/stock (think Superclean or stock EB01, but for the Captivate): Cognition

Pre-themed (think Dark Revenge): any Team Phoenix ROMs - Phoenix Unleashed, FireFly, SuperNova, Fusion

Customizable (they all are, to varying degrees, but this one is like a web-based Blackhole): Serendipity

AOSP (think Kaoscinate, but more functional): CyanogenMod 7 for Captivate (atinm), MIUI RC5 (mossination) NOTE: flashing CM7 or MIUI RC5 onto your Captivate is a relatively complex procedure, but worth it as long as you follow the directions exactly

Note than unlike the Fascinate, the stock Captivate has an unlocked recovery -- you don't actually have to Odin a new Clockwork or anything in before flashing stuff.

That I deff did not know..

[Captivate General] studacris:
That's true for stock 2.1 that has 2e recovery, you can literally just rename a rom update.zip and flash it with reinstall packages in stock recovery. Lets see you do that in stock froyo out of the box... 3e recovery needs signed zips or cracked first in order to do that...or anything else.
[Captivate General] Johnnie5000:
Try all the rom's at least once. They all have their pro's. Me, I'm partial to Firefly. As far as modems and kernal's go ~ The jk4 modem seems like its the best all around for most people. YMMV. And hardcore's SpeedMod kernal is always solid. Good to keep cwm's of those two on your SD in case of a bad modem/kernal flash.

Boot into MAGLDR and then into CWM and make a Nandroid backup using backup and restore. Then boot back into MAGLDR and do a hard reset with option #7 then boot into CWM again and go to backup and restore and go to advanced restore and restore your data and cache. This might help you out.

going to install clockwork recovery by mik presently in stock froyo 2.2 rooted with z4root,thunderg 1.2 installed

can anyone help how to procede installing clockwork and what are the things to do before flashing cm7 by mik. I mean what are the options to wipe and stuff as updating from froyo and clockwork user pls help :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] marioemp2k7:
It is pretty intuitive if you know what I mean.

1. The first step is to flash the zip (signed-recovery.zip) from the Clockworkmod thread like anything else (custom ROM, fontpack, tweaks, etc.).

2. After flashing turn off the phone and turn it one to enter the custom recovery (Power Btn+Vol But. Down+Home But)

3. You're in Clockworkmod now. Everything must be familiar in some way just the order being somewhat different plus a few additions and some features missing.

4. First you may want to backup (backup and restore option). I would recommend to copy everything afterwards from the SDCard to the PC and reformat it (the SDCard ofcourse :)).

5. Go to wipe data/factory reset-->wipe cache partition-->mounts and storage-->format /boot-->format /data-->format /sd-ext (only if you had used it before and it's present)-->format /system

6. Now you can install Mik's CM7 build (install zip from sdcard-->choose zip from sdcard)
