Since using ROM manager I haven't had a single boot loop with any ROM and I have tried most! My current favourite is MoDaCo R5 which allows me to include just what I need using the online kitchen. I have had no problems at all with this release.

MoDaCo R6 has just been released and adds the standard Contacts app and other minor additions.
[Desire General] sbdags:
I've had problems with most froyo roms. Imo none are as stable as the eclair roms.
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
MCR R6 is the most stable I've found. And I totally agree with the kitchen. Most devs are keeping QuickOffice in their roms as it isn't available in the market, so the kitchen is great for removing that. Absolutely love it. :D
[Desire General] kmetek:
this?

[Desire General] GANJDROID:
Yeah, that's the one :)
[Desire General] djoni1980:
too bad it isn't free (yet) ;)
[Desire General] Kleptomaniac:
Yeah I'm running Modaco r6 now and while it is stable it just doesn't seem that fast sometimes, so I'm going to go with the Modaco stock froyo ROM until the sense one is a little more polished.
[Desire General] MasDroid:
I'm currently rnunning NeoPhyTe ROM 1.2 Sense-FroYo (FRF91), which is based on r5 MoDaCo - i think it's a great ROM... it seems very stable and fast with good battery life.

I would definately recommend it.
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
True, but we wouldn't have roms as good as we do without Paul, so the donation is well worth it :)
[Desire General] dajudge01:

[Desire General] AdamLC:
I am using LeeDroid and haven't come across a single issue! Phone seems stable and battery life is great! All apps run smoothly, very happy :)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
AT&T, with their infinite wisdom, decided to remove the front facing camera from the Captivate as to keep video calling "exclusive" to the iPhone 4. Bastards!

Anyway, is there any version of the Galaxy S out there that supports 850/1900 3G AND comes with the front camera? I know Rogers is getting their version some time in September, but no word as to whether the front camera will be included, nor do I want to wait that long :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
buy the internation verison "i9000" that one has front facing camera, and it can go video calling with skype/fringe or phone to phone on any Europe/Asia phone network.

just north america have the feature DISABLED, because they want to make people belive it is for "iphone" only
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
It doesn't have support for 850mhz 3G, or does it? New York city is primarily 850, which is why I'm looking for an 850/1900 compatible model :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ziostilon:
Bell Vibrant Galaxy S

http://galaxys.bell.ca/

looks pretty much like the Euro version. except Bell runs on the HSPA 850MHz, so it has the bands that you require

2G probably isn't tested though, since Bell doesn't run on a GSM network
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
If that's the case, I highly doubt it will work on AT&T.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
I wouldn't say that though, my brother had an Omnia II from Bell and it supported Quadband 2G and 850/1900 3G :eek:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
the thing is, if you are willing to change from GSM to CDMA

DATA will not work, if you are not joined to either GSM or CDMA
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
Dunno, works fine for him on AT&T 3G :p Voice works over GSM also
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
a quick google search reveals that phone is a GSM phone, so it can not be from Bell.

http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/Samsung-Omnia-II-phone-p_3790.html

your friend must have purchased it elsewhere, Bell only works on CDMA
[Galaxy S I9000 General] KennyXL:
Is it DISABLED or is has the camera been removed. I can't tell since there are indications of some kind of sensors on the front above and to the left of the AT&T logo. If it has been disabled there is the possibility of enabling it with firmware or other software. If it has been removed, no software in the world is going to make a front-facing camera work. Do you have actual information or is this speculation?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
http://www.bell.ca/shopping/PrsShpW..._catalog_item_sku=68968&region=AB&language=en

I'm positive it was a Bell phone.. the box was labeled as Bell mobility :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
i9000 has the camera,

local USA versions of the SGS Galaxy S have their cameras removed.

and north america phone network does not officially support face to face phone calls yet (we are so technologically backwards here... sigh... :o )
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
Yea, kind of sad :\ We could use it with Fring if it had it, just like the Evo 4G
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
wow, beats me, isn't that interesting... since when Bell started offering GSM services? :eek::confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
I get the impression at ATT is trying to lessen the load on their data network. That's why they remove the front camera. They don't remove it from iPhone because they have already forced apple to also disable facetime over 3G in iPhone 4.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ap27:
Bell's old 2G network was CDMA (and EVDO for 3G), but their HSPA Network is Sim Card based. This includes 3.5G Data as well as normal Voice/Text. So yes, the Bell Samsung Vibrant will work on AT&T as it as the same HSPA bands (850/1900) and it has a front facing camera.

Any unlocked phone that supports HSPA 850 OR 1900 will work on Bell. Their towers broadcast both frequencies, but you'll lose reception in rural areas (and basements) with phones that only support 1900 (like the Euro Galaxy S). I have a Telstra HTC Desire that has only the 850 band, works perfectly in all areas. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
I hope the bell version doesn't have a front camera:p or else I will be very sad with my version. But oh well. By the time bell releases their version, perhaps the 4g epic will be out. Hardware Keyboard + Flash > 15 extra GB
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
well even so, i still prefer the Euro SGS with only the 1900 band & 2100 band working for both voice and data.

if all else fails, i can always revert back to my old HTC Athena for 850 bands in dire emergencies :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BA_Flash_GOD:
DO get the Canadian Bell Version its the same as the i9000 to a T

Yes it will work, and yes it's GSM based with SIM. If you do a quick check of just the BELL website, they Sell APPLE products guys.. which as we know are DEFINITELY GSM... not only that but they sell sim cards on the front page.

I'm getting one first day, and I don't even live in Canada! It's a QUAD-band phone for one thing, world phone dudes... secondly.. it does support 850 HSDPA AT&T bands (they use the iphone4's for christ sakes of course they aren't CDMA!)

on Wiki (it's cited but no clue on validity) for Bell you will see it's basically Canada's AT&T correct? Ma Bell owns a whopping 39% of Bell it appears.

The euro version is not on 850 for us AT&T users so do NOT get that one, get the Canadian 'Vibrant' as they're calling it. I'm sure Rogers will shoot one out soon as well.

Anyways I checked out AT&T on facebook and it appears they are 'testing' LTE late this year and implementing next. I think that's a crock of sheet myself, they do everything last and give their users sheeeeet! Verizon and Sprint and even MetroPCS are rolling it out ASAP it appears beginning next year Goodluck out there kids!

@ap27 sorry dude missed your post there

Yeah I had a desire for 2 months loved it, wanted to move to the Galaxy, the screen is at least 5x better no sh*t do a side by side, I had both for over a month until I sold my Desire for over $150 what I paid for it on ebay hah.

forgot release date is 2 days August 6th and it has the SAME hardware buttons as the i9000 not like the 'Tmobile USA Vibrant', so this pup will flash up stock i9000 rocks asap!

Also guys Bell charges a whopping $75 to unlock their phones, I asked their reps 2 weeks ago with all the info. BUT you can easily go here ( http://www.unlock2go.com/ ) I spoke to their rep a week ago (they're based in Florida, USA) and they'll be doing unlocking for it, $29 one time of course.... not bad.

As for the front facing camera (FFC) I think we all know that once sprint launches the epic and such we will see TONS of free apps on the market for video chat, even more so on your data service not just wifi. Gravy! Live nude chats with the lady for free hah :P
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
anyone know if we can unlock the bell version using the same method to unlock the other SGS models?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BA_Flash_GOD:
Yoz guys they are gearing up ASAP 2 days

Now they've got the set price ($499) Without contract on their site (wasn't there last night even), and remember those are CANADIAN prices so even better for us Americanos we get about $20-$25 off that.

http://galaxys.bell.ca/?INT=MOB_shop_home_BAN_GalaxyS_20100629_lm_all

No clue if it will be unlockable via software i've no doubts really, but for me just buying from canada alone that savings pays for the official $29 unlock code if it's not possible.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
i think i'm gonna sell my i9000 version to get the Bell Vibrant if it works :D

2 more days to find out
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
They could do the same to Samsung, it's that they make more $ on the iphone due to people spending upto $300 on it, compared to the $200 Galaxy S. The more features you remove from a phone, the less you'll have to pay the manufacturer. Also, there are plenty of reasons to have always suspected that something within the contracts or renewal talks are the reason behind AT&T doing things like avoiding, and then later, gimping Android phones.

So, of course they are trying to lessen the load on their data network, and they might be worried about hackers. But, they've definitely, continually tried to make any phone on their network not pass or lap the iPhone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sl8125:
I spoke to Bell today. They have the phone in stock. Price: $449 CAD. However, they will not sell to me via Telephone. Any idea how we can purchase this model. I called several bell authorized stores and came up with nothing. Only sell if you walk in.

Edit: Take that back. Maybe after the official release date, they will sell it. I know Captivate was available for me two day before the actual release date.

If someone find a vendor who can sell it via telephone, let me know.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
you can always have some one living in CAD to buy it for you and then mailing it to you via FedEX UPS or whatever service you agree on.

specially if you have friends or family members in Canada.

The only thing that bugs me about the Bell Vibrant version is, there is no mention of how much internal memory it's included 8 GB or 16 GB
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sl8125:
what if no family no friend in CA?

aren't they all 16gb?

I really hope they are the same as the Euro versions to unlock. I know I am most likely going to get one Friday so maybe I will be the guinea pig? lol

Also the $449 price is with prepaid 30-day service, $499 to buy just outright with no commitment aka to use it on a different network. I will be getting mine from Future Shop as they are pretty good at selling phones outright.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] BA_Flash_GOD:
Ouchy

You're supposed to be able to buy the phones no term from Bell ONLINE (check their website you can choose NO TERM for their phones, BUT, you have to choose a 'rate plan' which I don't really get considering they say NO TERM and have the full price of the device.

http://www.bell.ca/shopping/PrsShpWls_PrdClpListView.page

I am going to call right now and see what's up this will be REALLY odd if they only let their users buy them.. don't most USA companies let ANYONE buy their devices outright? I know AT&T does anyway.. I got my Captivate 6am online that Sunday morning it came out.

Also on the unlock, go here like I said before: http://www.unlock2go.com/

Bell charges a whopping $75 to unlock their phones, I asked their reps 2 weeks ago with all the info. BUT you can easily go here ( http://www.unlock2go.com/ ) I spoke to their rep a week ago (they're based in Florida, USA) and they WILL be doing unlocking for BELL VIBRANT, $29 one time of course.... not bad.

**EDIT - Just called, they do sell the devices outright... but oddly enough unlike AT&T that owns 39% of their company, you have to add a 'rate plan' to buy a device outright. He kept telling me to go to a local store to pick one up so looks like if you know someone in Canada or you have to wait until they hit other Online stores. I had told him 3 times i'm from the USA on AT&T just wanting to get it. That is the only option it appears the rep said, I drilled him 3 times on it hah. Same answer. Oh well guess we wait a bit longer or opt for the new toy. Adios

**EDIT AGAIN - Wait up here's a thought, I went through their order process online with the HTC legend they have there (its $399 outright hah seriously) and well couldn't you just order from Bell online and add their no commitment rate plan (which appears free they dont charge you for that of course) Then just merely get your phone and then cancel the service?? Technically it's not on commitment so then everything would be the same price and virtually free eh? I doubt they ship to USA though... be Canada only im sure
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
Sweet sounds good to me xD I could use it with AT&T's $10 family unlimited DATA plan :p WIN!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lexcyn:
The only problem I see right now is no one is providing unlock codes for this phone. I have tried 4 places on-line and they all say they cannot obtain an unlock code.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] lexcyn:
I've read your posts but apparently the server that provides codes from Samsung is down, which is why no codes can be processed.

I have no evidence myself to this fact, but I will be trying to unlock it tomorrow via the websites you have linked. I will post the results.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BA_Flash_GOD:
That sounds pretty odd to me hah. Please do i'd like to see how it goes because I spoke to the guy on the website via telephone since i'm in the states and he said 100% yes unlockable Bell Samsung Vibrant I drilled the dude 3 times
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
I do remember having a hell of a time trying to get my Bell Omnia 2 unlocked because apparently, Bell added an extra lock (or something like that) and they wouldn't release codes to the public (or paid) unless you paid them $80. A few months later, FastGSM developed a flash based unlock (hook it up to your computer, pay for a credit, hit the unlock button) so maybe this is what we'll have to wait for :\
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lexcyn:
Well I guess we will find out tomorrow lol. I know I am going to get one shhh just don't tell the wife.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
Any idea on the pricing? Mind shipping one down here for me? xD
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lexcyn:
$499 CAD for no-contract option. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
That's an awesome price.. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BA_Flash_GOD:
Eh $499 is the same as all the other Galaxy S variants. Canadian $ not much behind our USD right now XE states $499 Canadian = $490 USD

To be honest to get us one down here in the USA will be more money spent either way. Most Canadian retailers don't seem to ship to the USA (go figure we ship everything to Canada hah) So no clue. Guess we'll just have to pick one up online after they're out, talk about sheety for USA folk.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
It's cheaper though if you plan on using it with AT&T :) They'll force you to get the $25 smartphone plan if you get the Captivate and cap you at 2GB per month. If you get the Bell one, you can ride along the $15 dumbphone Medianet plan (or $10 if you have family unlimited texting). So over the course of 2 years, you'll save ~$240 or more! As a bonus, you get unlimited data with Medianet :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BA_Flash_GOD:
I was referring to the device alone sorry, not the plan. The hardware no contract price is all the same on all the models of course.

Yeah ive been with AT&T since 03 and out contract for 5yrs now, I don't plan on commiting anytime soon.

Here's to hoping we can still ride the unlimited gravy train for years to come.. cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 General] r34p3rex:
Definitely :p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sl8125:
It will be a waiting game for me. I'll wait til the craziness dies down. give it couple weeks and there will be some shop who can and will ship to the US. At least one of our XDA members could give us a heads up on a shop info. by then i am sure someone will figure out the sim unlock. i just want someone to post up some reviews and what mods this badboy is capable of.

I hear i9000 peeps talk about getting 2000 quadrant scores and see these videos of their phone zipping by and chit and it got to me. as soon as i heard of this i was in no matter how much i like the captivate and not digg the vibrant. but i went and saw it and like it actually. there is also a nice phone cover made by phantomskinz.

If you didnt remove them apps from the back up then yes it will restore them. There shoudl be an option if you scroll down i batch where you can see delete back ups for noninstalled apps. I would do this and it should remove the back ups of any app you previously removed but had backed up.

adb push filename.apk /system/app
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnaferraro:
In TB, it shows the system apps I had deleted, and they have a line through the file name. Below each one, it says that there isnt any backup of those apps. If I open them, it only gives me the option to un-install them. Should I keep them there in case I need them when I find a way to re-install them?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo4gLI:
Certain system apps will not reinstall even if you have a backup of them. If you uninstall Facebook for HTC Sense, for example, there is no way of reinstalling it and getting it to work again. Be careful what you uninstall.
