Hello, I'm Drew Nash currently in Mesa, AZ, city #21. I have been coming to XDA off and on for the past few years, just reading. mainly about rooting and flashing for custom roms. Started with the G1 and now my recently water damaged :crying: Glide that I had just got after Xmas and updated to ICS I've got a lot of different interests that keep me occupied but after I get another Glide I hope to learn more about how to customize my shizzle and get involved in the droid dev scene.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] terryowen:
Hi, I'm Terry and have been mostly lurking here since I got my G1. I tend to go back and forth between Nokias and Android - usually tempted by a decent camera at a good price. I loved my Xperia Ray but am getting old and hated texting on it and wanted a little bigger screen. I always use no contract carriers, currently doing Straight Talk and can't wait to get the AT&T stuff off my Glide. (I've rooted it but that's as far as I've gotten. Am perusing various roms but except for disliking the GB browser, am not in a hurry.)

If I could design my own phone, it would be an Android (or Linux/Maemo) with a 20 key QWERTY slider like the Shadow and a Carl Zeiss camera with Xenon flash. With a radio and play to, like the old Nokias thrown in. :)

Hi all, Neil from central NJ. Currently in my 5th year of pharmacy school

I've had android phones since September 2010 and I've enjoyed them all. Keyboards are my thing, and every one of my phones has had one. I tend to upgrade my phones a lot more than your average Joe, but that's been getting harder lately, given the current dry spell of QWERTYs.

History: Motorola Cliq> MyTouch 3G Slide> HTC G2> MyTouch 4G Slide> Captivate Glide

I'm generally quite helpful, so feel free to ask me anything.

Hey nice to meet you all, I'm Iram AKA darkajax from Chihuahua (yup same name as the little weird dogs), Mexico. I've been reading xda-developers forums for a while now, but finally decided to join.

My first android phone was a Samsung Galaxy Ace, the second one a Motorola Atrix and now I'm happy with my Cappy Glide...

I'm a Software Developer / Reporting Analyst working for AutoZone Inc and hope to develop something for Android (I'd love to work on roms for this phone when I've learned enough) when I have some free time...

Let's get along :D!

Loving Android

Hello Everyone:

My name is Dave. I live in Ohio. I am on my first Android phone, it's the Samsung Captivate Glige SGH-I927 from AT&T. I am blind and interested in Android development.

I was not planning on getting a new phone, I'm originally from a Symbian background, but when that phone died two days before a trip, one that went out of state, a phone was kind of a necessity, so I got this new phone.

My phone was originally running AT&T's Gingerbread, since then took it to AT&T's ICS firmware, now I'm really wanting to go custom.

I am thinking Spyke555's Cm 10.1-m3 rom, my first task is to root my phone. I am very excited about the increased battery life and for me as a blind guy increased accessibility features of Android 4.2.2 jb.

I look forward to talking with, and working with you.

Thanks.

welcome tech927. dont get too excited about cyanogenmod.. anything jellybean will draw more power and lessen battery life. on stock ics try installing a battery extending app. i have had great results with juice defender ultimate.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lorddavid:
My battery is better in JB. If I remember, the user mrk2815 is blind too, maybe you can ask all the details to him, because I am not sure how is it to blind users
[Samsung Captivate Glide] davidpartay:
Hello, I'm David, from Australia.

I'm interested in development in a "Maybe I'll bother one day" sense, but I mainly went for custom ROMs as the Captivate Glide isn't actually available in Australia, I got mine through an importer and the phone was originally one of the 927r models for the Rogers network.

Needless to say though, despite the fact that the IcePop ROM build I'm using does everything I need, I am really keen to get Jellybean running on my phone again if the bluetooth headset issues are ever worked out :) no pressure, it's not like I'm paying you to fix it XD.

Previously I had a Milestone 2 but the phone really bugged me in a few ways - such as the fact that Motorola wouldn't fix issues such as the physical keys ghost-pressing themselves (had to root the phone and get a third-party fix) and also because unless you were in the UK you weren't getting past Froyo... enough for me to upgrade to the Glide. Since then, I decided to throw one of the Jellybean ROMs onto the old phone and I keep it turned on and charged all the time just in case I ever need a spare phone, or a second alarm clock on the other side of the room in case I'm worried I won't get up for an early start :P
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Salaros:
Hi

Hi guys,

My nickname is Salaros :silly: I'm a .NET/web developer and Linux enthusiast (take a look on blog.salaros.com)

My first smartphone was Nokia 7610, than I had N82 and in 2010 Q1 I got my real smartphone :highfive: mighty and futuristic Nokia N900

Once N900 got completely broken I was really considering to get another one.. but it was too old-fashioned and slow (600 MHz single-core ARMv7 + 256 Mb of RAM + 768 Mb swap)...

Soooo.. I started to look for something similar.. Nokia N950 has been never released to the market (only to some Meego devs).

Finally I found Samsung Captivate Glide that had both qwerty keyboard and Linux OS (well kind of..)

I always use the bleeding edge ROMs and helped in beta testing, mostly through PMs with kernel/ROM developers

But I will always miss Maemo and if Samsung will finally release a query + Tisen device.. I will buy it, definitely

P.S. As you might have noticed English is not my native language, so sorry for all the grammatical and orthographic errors
[Samsung Captivate Glide] BaRoN!:
Hi all

Hi all,

Basically I'm an old read-only user of XDA. But now I'm excited about the fresh CyanogenMod for Captivate Glide, so I wanted to thank the author and maybe encourage him to make a few improvements :) I already found the Donate button, too =). I know the kind words are better when they are combined with a free beer or a coffee :).

Other than that, it's nice to see I'm not the only fan of QWERTY-androids. Captivate Glide was not released in Russia (yeah, my friend has the catchphrase I'm going to borrow: I'm from Russia where it's very cold), but I purchased one on ebay. Especially interested in people who use the device with non-English language (Russian alphabet is cyrillic and differs from a..z letters) :). I use some kind of Dvorak layout so it is not very easy to adjust the phone for it. :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] A Guy Named Ronnie:
Hello

Hello everyone, I'm Ronnie. This SGH-i927 is my first Android phone. I've had it since December 2011 and still love it. It has given me a few problems here and there (especially after the first ICS update), but I've been able to resolve most of them after lurking through here. I just replaced my battery after reading about similar problems a few of the members here where experiencing with their SGH-i927. I plan to get familiar with rooting my phone in the near future. I hope that I will be able to install Ubuntu phone sometime next year. But we will see about that.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] winotu:
Hi

Hi, my name is Chris and I'm from. Samsung i927 is my second android phone after I lost my SE Xperia mini pro somewhere. I would like to star the adventure of Kernel/Android dev and extend my knowledge in embedded systems.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mschweini:
Hi, I am schweini, a german dude living in Costa Rica. Still waiting for the bluetooth and VoIP issues to be fixed, but apart from that the phone is very usable with the latest CM ROM.

Oh, and i need 10 posts in order to post in the development forums. sigh. 2 more to go, i guess.

---------- Post added at 03:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 AM ----------

Oh, and this is my third-ish android phone: started with the good old G1, then Milestone and now the Glide. I need QWERTY for emergency SSH access, and because of my huge fingers.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] rakan21:
Hi

Hi everyone :),

I'm Rakan and it's great to see that there are actually other people still using this phone. This is my first QWERTY phone and I find it to be perfect for my needs. I got into Android with the Nexus One quite some time ago. I'm a huge Linux enthusiast, been using it since Ubuntu 7.04. Everything seems to be perfect except for the VOIP issues like Skype, and I believe Viber is also affected as well. I'm currently on the PAC ROM and I'm happy there are still ROMs being developed for the phone. :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LaizureBoy:
Hi!

I agree completely, so here we go.

My name is Brandon Laizure, as you can tell by the username.

That started when some poeple at my school started calling me Laizure, and then it mutated into LaizureBoy, so I adopted it as my pseudonym.

The Samsung Captivate Glide is my *first* and *only* Android device.

I know, right? What am I doing here?

Well, I am a nerd, and I have ALWAYS been into helping my friends jailbreak/root their devices, and then pimping them out with Cydia and cool tweaks. Then, I entered the world of ROMS, and kernels, and the other million things that have to do with android.

Lately, I have been BLOWING UP the forum for the Cappy, because I REALLY want to try and help someone out!

I'm pretty active, but I can't get on all the time, because I have to use my tethered phone to get on the internet.

I'm only 17, so I'm sure there is plenty of things to learn on here. I'm pretty social, so feel free to hit me up, ask a question, or just chat.

I have litttle-NO proigramming knowledge, so please, don't ask me questions relating to that... :D

[Samsung Captivate Glide] gelocks:
Hello all.

Just passing by to say hello and let you know that I'll probably be bothering everyone with questions soon! ;)

I have mostly been a Nokia user although I've dabbled with other phones from other companies.

My previous phones (recently) have been: Nokia N9, LG Quantum (Windows QWERTY), Sony Xperia Pro (Android QWERTY), and the Nokia Lumia series (620, 820 and now using 920).

I had a short stint with the Sony Xperia Pro so I did not get into Rooting, ROMS and all of that stuff.

Spend a bit of time with it and then got a Nokia N9. That Nokia weirdly crapped out on me (weird since Nokia phones have always been reliable to me!) After that, spend a lot of time with the LG Quantum windows phone and gave it to my moms recently, so decided to stay with Windows and got the 920.

Still, I MISS MY QWERTY KEYBOARDS!!!

So I decided to grab the Glide.

Hopefully it will meet my expectations.

See you around!

You should check out the brainstorming thread in the Dev forum.. I posted some links in the end, if you're into this stuff you should take a stab at building cm9 if you have time .. I pretty much posted all the links and what I *think* may be the issue.

Happy to welcome you to the community!

The Captivate Glide is my second Android device.

I work with software development but I don't have any experience with Android development. I hope to be able to help fix the audio related issues in the 4.2 based roms.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] wuselfuzz:
Hello from Germany to everyone.

I finally got a Captivate Glide to replace my old Motorola Milestone. The i927 seemed to be the only viable phone with a hardware keyboard, so I decided to import one. This didn't go very well - ordered one through eBay from China (the idea of that was kinda funny - ordering a South Korean phone for the North American market from a Chinese seller who ships with Swisspost to Germany... *g*), but unfortunately, the package got lost in the mail. A friend ordered from the same seller a day later and got his phone about 4 weeks ago. Last week I found another eBay offer in the UK and got my phone yesterday.

The latest software on my Milestone was an inofficial CM10.1 build, requiring a swap partition on sdcard and whatnot, but that was pretty much unusable due to the frequent lockups. The Milestone had only 256MB RAM, and ~30MB of that were wasted through the 2ndboot mechanism.

I got the very slightly used phone without the internal sdcard wiped, that was a bit awkward - lots of family photos on there. Don't forget about that when selling your phone. ;)

It's got official 4.0.4 on it already, so put TWRP on it, rooted it and did a dd backup of the efs partition, just in case. The phone was already unlocked.

Flashed bubor's latest CM10.2 build on it and it seems to work. There's some issues I have to work out, but the basic functionality is there already. THANKS BUBOR!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] euro1990:
Wow, quite an intro. Welcome to the i927. Bummer that your first phone got lost in the mail. And very odd to receive one full of someone's family pictures.

I too went from a Milestone (first USA version, the Moto Droid1) to a i927. What a huge upgrade. I was running CM7 on the Droid, but I have stayed mostly stock on the i927. I definitely tried custom roms, especially around the time ICS was released, but I never found any rom that fully worked 100%. So I actually run the stock ICS rom, rooted, running the app "WakeLock" to keep the phone awake at all times, otherwise it goes into a deep sleep of sorts that causes you to miss txts and calls. Once you do wake the phone, you will get your missed txts, but each one will come in 15+ times. VERY annoying. But with WakeLock running, no issues. It does consume a bit more battery when kept awake at all times, but not too bad. Not sure if you'll see this issue within CM10+, but if you decide to go back to ICS, remember WakeLock.

I recently got my hands on a Droid3 (XT862) and was able to modify it to use the GSM slot for USA carriers. A decent device with specs somewhat close to the i927, but not quite as good. My main complaints with the i927 is the lack of a JB rom from Samsung/AT&T, the relatively low resolution display (I can see the pixels with my own eyes), and with it getting old, it's starting to get a lack of development, which is understandable. Sadly, I think the hardware keyboard is essentially dead, I highly doubt any phone maker is going to create a high-powered phone with one ever again. The Captivate Glide might be as good as one ever gets! Enjoy!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mer80cedes:
Hello :)

Joined here to learn more about the Samsung Captivate since the sales people at AT&T seem to not want to bother with helping once their sales are done. It is also an interest in repairing things before having to pay someone else Example: I have owned over 35 cars and never spent more than $500 total of repairs for them at a mechanic shop. It is the desire to learn how things work and fix when they don't. Phones seem to be the same way (fixing the mechanical parts) but getting into the programming is a complete confusion for me which causes me to join xdadevelopers.

My work time is spent doing solar cell module prototyping and concept design. Fun job, crap pay (start up business) but it is still a learning curve. When not working with the solar stuff, I do consulting for LED lighting in commercial/ residential applications. It is cool to hear a clients reaction when they call or email saying they see a 50% or more reduction on their electric bill one month after upgrading their lighting. Service sells but great service with the right products creates satisfied people :)

Looking forward to lurking the forums for tidbits/ info and also sharing what I learn back into the community here.

Cheers,

Robert
[Samsung Captivate Glide] euro1990:
Hey Robert, welcome to this forum. You sound like my sort of guy... I also fix all my cars (I'm only at 31 total cars owned), and my day job is similar but somewhat opposite (boring mechanical engineer in the automotive field, but decent pay).

I've been using Android since the first "Droid" phone hit Verizon, and the CG is my 2nd phone. I do still like this phone very much, now almost 2 years after getting it. I have learned that ongoing development for it has slowed down a bit, which is to be expected on a device that is relatively ancient in the phone world. I've been running a pure stock ICS rom for a while now, rooted with WakeLock running (an app that keeps it from going into deep sleep where it misses calls and txts). It seems some JB development continues on, I've been slow to try any of them out though, since early versions had bugs and missing features. Sadly, Samsung/AT&T never released a JB rom for this phone, so any created rom has been put together from scratch or ported over from other devices. Props to those that do the work to create them, but no doubt their task would be way easier if there was an official JB release to work from.

I'm actually picking up a used Moto Photon Q this afternoon... the Sprint version of the Droid4. With a bit of modification, it can work on GSM networks. This involves actually removing the hard-soldered Sprint sim card off the main board and adding a receiver to install my own sim, but it seems like easy work for a handy person like myself, so I'll give it a whirl. 2 months from now our AT&T contract is up and I plan to go to T-mobile. They're literally half the price of what AT&T charges for a 4-line family plan... it seems like a no-brainer!

I'm Ryan from NJ. The Glide is my 5th Android phone and 8th Android Device. (Own a rooted Nook Color w/ CM 10.1 and a Simple Touch). I even rooted the B&N original Black and white nook...was tough, but it was a lovely device.

Anyways, nice meeting you all.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dragonfire613:
Hello anyone still on the Glide forum! Paul from Kentucky.

Late to the party as usual... budget usually requires me to follow technology a few years behind until prices drop. Anyway, got my Captivate Glide for Christmas and am finally around to playing with it. This is my second Android phone (previous was on 1.2) and 4th Android device. We have 2 toddlers and my brother keeps buying us tablets as gifts... it's nice of him and all, but they just don't stand up to toddlers. The first was a Lenovo first-ish gen Android tablet that lasted a few months before being destroyed beyond use. The second one he bought another Lenovo (seriously, man) for Christmas with 4.3, and a month later the kids have already cracked the screen in several places, but it's still running (for now).

I know, I know, I could prohibit the kids from using it, but that involves basically keeping it hidden somewhere all the time and never using it anyway. This time around I just didn't use it to start with since I didn't want to get attached to it before it's eventual death. The boys love it though, and it amazes me how quickly they pick up technology at that age (3 and 5 years old).

Anyway, I'll be around while I'm tinkering with the Glide. Really love the upgrade from a bottom-line Pantech Crossover running Android 1.2 to now on 4.0 (soon to be 4.3 I hope). Nice to meet y'all.

Just noticed this thread (wow)

Hi my name is Jared I'm from Dyersburg Tennessee I've always been interested in android

and The Captivate Glide is my 2nd Android phone (always get hand-me-downs)

My first android was at&t fusion 2 (early 2012,got it free from at&t from a mistake they made) and man was it a little beast I thought until my parents upgraded to GS3 and I was handed the Samsung Captivate Glide.

I was like "Wow I get to use a phone that has ICS!" I used it for awhile and did not like touch wiz: locksceen password always made me call 911! Did it 3 times!!! That's what inspired me to install a custom ROM! Found the XDA i927 forum and eventually stuck around.

Was scared to flash a ROM because all the thread makers sounded a little harsh, after a month of research I finally Rooted on October 28 2013 and flashed on November 6!

Now its February and I learned a lot and now I help people and encourage people to flash and fix problems on their phone!

Oh, if your wondering about my profile picture of a deer its because they are my favorite animal and they are cool cute and awesome! Represent! :D

There you go that's my story!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] walmartshopper:
hi

Kyle from California. My wife has a Glide and I just got one for myself. I have been running bubor's KK roms on both of our phones. Would like to contribute to the development forum and post feedback on ROMs, but it says I need 10 posts. I made a flashable zip to fix the GPS on OMNI but couldn't post it for that reason. I don't have much to say in other forums, so I'm not sure how I'm going to get to 10 posts, unless you guys don't mind me spamming this thread to reach 10. Anyway, here is my experience running CM11 and OMNI so far:

I like the features of OMNI better, and it has been more stable for me. I think I've only had one random reboot in the last week. However, it has one major issue... gaming is terrible. For example, temple run 2 stutters bad and then freezes within the first couple minutes of playing. Extreme road trip runs smooth but also freezes after a minute or two. Haven't tried any other games that use the GPU. Also, some apps like snapchat play back recorded video in slow motion.

CM11 was able to run temple run 2 perfectly. On the stock ROM, it had long pauses that made it unplayable. On CM11, I could run the game at max quality with no stuttering and no pauses. However, the CM11 rom seemed less stable, and I would sometimes get multiple reboots per day.

I'm currently on OMNI 02/15/2014. Going to try today's new build and see if it changes anything for gaming. If not, I might go back to CM11 for a while.

My name is Max, and I'm from Ukraine. Got my Glide straight from L.A. So much people here in Kharkov never seen an Android phone with QWERTY-keyboard, so this slider making a shock even more than newest iPhone. ;) So much fun with my first Android device!

I'm very glad to see that this device is still having updates with new ROMs. Big thanks to bubor and everyone in development here!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Makshow:
Man, I found that I could post in dev forums when I got 3 on my post count. So can you, I think. Just try it.

And moders can delete these posts. :)
