the extra USB cable is very very extremely handy to have an extra
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AllGamer:
same here

i charge it every day using the stand alone wall charger from this deal
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] =Oberon=:
Yep.Sure is.I got one with my pack.Seller also threw in 3 screen protectors. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] keno_ro:
Update: came today.

No branding on the bat. And came with a nice EU adaptor.

Old: Mine didn't come after almost two weeks.... Hope not to have any issues.

I realy wanted the pack..:-X
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] doop:
Recieved mine today took 6 days. Charged one and the light on charger went blue after an hour, guessing battery already had some charge.

Thanks to the OP for pointing this out and for the many recommendations...
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] liqn7:
Its cheaper to buy direct form their website rather than from ebay.

http://www.spider-foot.com/2x-batte...r-samsung-i9000-galaxy-s-gsi902bau-p-731.html

Buying direct also means you can choose the right plug for your wall socket depending on your country. :)

Thanks to the heads up guys!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Ingmar89:
Also recieved my charger.

Came with the right adapter (europe) and the batteries seem to last as long as the original.

Also I'd like to point out that I was pretty impressed by the screen protectors.

Installed one, just for fun. (just took it out and sticked it on, no cleaning of the screen, no anti dust cloths/vacuum cleaner or whatever)

It sticked perfectly, no air bubbles.

Smooth and fingerprint-friendly!

Thanks for pointing out this perfect deal.

But does it work? I have a problem with mine. It is supposed to act as a data cable as well right? But when I hook up my sgs to the laptop via this cable, my laptop does not automatically detect the phone. I'm on windows7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] =Oberon=:
Mine works fine.(Windows XP)

Does your original one work then? Im assuming it does ofcourse.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] milkaa13:
The original one works perfectly. Perhaps its Windows7. I'll try it on an XP box. Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] diamond69:
i've got he same issues with my cable. all my computers and laptops can't connect to my sgs wehen using the "faked" china-cable. it will be recognized as unknown-usb-device everytime on all systems. the genuine cable works like a charm. i will order a second package from spiderfoot and check if the next cable works...
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] keno_ro:
:mad:Ok .... the pack came.. so far so good..

But I managed to f*** up two screen protectors....with dust..

My only solution is to go at work and use the white room...

Is there any solution that i can apply on the screen for more control?

Ty:mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AllGamer:
make sure my hands are completely clean from oil and dust

use compressed air on hand

clean my SGS screen before i put them on, to remove oil / dust

use compressed air on phone

then walk away, use compressed air on screen protector

come back to work area with the phone ready for operation

take out 50% of the screen protector, align with phone carefully (must have steady hands)

once you get 1/2 the screen protector on, the rest is easy

don't bother using any of those phone wipes and stuff, it will get worse

it's okay to trap a few bubbles, you can squeeze them out after the screen protector is sitting on the phone

that is the only way i can manage to put them on without trapping dust/oil underneath
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] yeongcl:
got mine in 3 weeks in Malaysia. I think it is because of the festive season here.

however, i found that the battery is not as lasting as the original one. when i charge it on the included charger, the battery will full charge in 4 hours. however the original battery need 6 hours to full charge. Both battery is charge from 2 - 5% indicator.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Prufrock:
Just ordered myself another couple of batteries with another charger for a grand total of £5 delivered. Happy with that!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ymlccc:
I got mine from Spider-foot as well, everything seems working except when charging from the charger's USB port with original Samsung USB cable, my phone is going nuts (like you see in ghost movies) that some apps are turning on and off by themselves... I wonder if anyone has the same issue?!

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sean2476:
I ordered this the other day from the same seller. I also added a car charger and screen mount too. Will wait and see what the products are like when the arrive.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikerm:
I have the +- same problem :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] crotig:
Got mine

11 days to the Scotland. Charging now and will report on usage. Put one of the screen protectors on. Like all cheap protectors it's not a perfect fit. The 2 tabs in the top left don't adhere properly on the one I tried but the screen part itself is okay and now I'm a bit less worried until I make the decision whether or not to get A Zagg like I have for my Omnia.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] yeongcl:
Just found out that mine have the same issue. the problem is the charger's usb port as i have try both the cable.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] keno_ro:
How is the car charger and the screen mount?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] yeongcl:
I check the charger with a multimeter,

Battery charger giving 3.48 - 3.60v 370 - 420mh compare to the quoted 4.2v 350mh.

Usb give 4.52 - 4.62v compare to the 5.2v. Also 100mh, which I think is reading error.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mmidas:
I just ordered mine here:

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170541664546

It's with the EU stansard plug. Hope it works fine! Will let it know when it arrives if seller is ok...
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] theharry:
I ordered mine 2 weeks ago and just received a toll (customs) information. Seems like the attached a wrong bill to the package, so it's stuck at the toll office. Damn you, Austrian officers, for being so picky. I hope that doesn't hurt Spider-Foot for including false information. And now I have to wait even longer.

Did anyone else have problems with customs?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] reefy:
ordered this package yesterday.

good communication from the seller, can't wait to get it :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] brunes:
Your phone only uses 1% / hour? Define "idling". I can't even go a full 16 hour day off a charge with my OEM battery, and that is with juice defender and includes ZERO phone calls. But I of course have data enabled and am getting push emails all day.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] lokhor:
@brunes I have the same thing with my oem battery I'm lucky to get 16hrs of life, the replacement batteries are far worse usually dying after 10hrs. At the moment I have 25% battery after 16hrs including 8hrs of standby. I have only had the screen on for 1.5hrs. Do other Android phones use this much battery? This other guy at work has a Desire and easily lasts the entire day.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sean2476:
My order arrived today and so far I'm impressed with the batteries. I charged one up and stuck it in my phone then downloaded lots of new apps and surfed the net for a couple of hours and still had plenty of life left in the battery. I ordered the car charger/ holder and leather sock on the same day but that has still to arrive.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ChiGGz:
I can get around day and a half with odd browsing/phone call and push running 24/7 with my OEM.

I was in the states, with data turned off I got over 2 days worth with the odd texting, no calls.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] VooDoo.maGiK:
Just got my battery packs and car kit today. I put both of the chargers on with a battery before leaving for work but one of them would glow pink then change to blue then fade out, decided to play it safe and unplug it, other one seemed fine.

Hoping that I return to find everything the way I left it :s
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] lennshow66:
Rock player wonder play :( any ideas

thanks
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Skye Menjou:
You need the ARMv6 version.

The Wildfire cpu does not support ARMv7 cpu instructions.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] zephyri-xr:
I can't play videos both on v7-v6 versions. Rockplayer sucks on Wildfire. My last hope is Froyo and Coreplayer :(
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Skye Menjou:
There are 2 ARMv6 versions.

You need the one with VPF in the title.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Marshall07:
I confirm what Skye Menjou said. I installed the armv6_VPF version and it works like a charm...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] zephyri-xr:
I installed the VPF one first and it didn't worked. It's even didn't opened. The not-VPF one is working but sucks on playing videos. When playing device locks down, responses later, or showing the video in poor-quality. But I'll install the VPF one again...

Regards. The zeph!

Edit: Installed it but didnt worked. You can use the 'Videos' instead of Rock Player. It plays every video that you converted with Handbrake.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] DandyOne:
I am using arcMedia for playing videos.

It works, and it's free. No subtitle support though.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] QAD3R:
I installed the ARM6 Version and tried playing a .avi file but the video playback was very slow ....
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rai.android:
I'm having the same issue... Tried to play an .avi file but the playback is really slow.. I then tried to play an .mp4 file but same result with the .avi file.. I tried playing the same .mp4 file with the default ('videos') player and it played smoothly.. Are there some sort of settings that I need to do with rockplayer to be able to play videos smoothly?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] pao9195:
how about coreplayer and smartmovie for android?:rolleyes:
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] jefmcg:
I installed Rockplayer from the market, it played by stuttering and full of ads.

Meridian in free, and seems great so far (my vids are created in handbrake, so i haven't worried about formats)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] pao9195:
any feedbacks regarding rockplayer on wildfire?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] ryandi7:
Download the rockplayer that supports arm v6 processors. It won't necessarily play all videos, download Handbrake to edit the video files (resolution, compression type, container and etc) before playing it in your wildfire
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Sympnotic:
RockPlayer released an universal app which plays great on wildfire
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] macola.hr:
I had problems with watching videos (Divix) on Wildefire because I installed Rock player version ArmV6VFP , I found on the internet solution for my problem version ArmV6VFP not responsible for Wildfire. For this mobile corresponds only version ArmV6.

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] mwc2914:
I hope this versio can play in my wildfire ,

thanks
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] pao9195:
for now, what's your comment? is that version play on wildfire? :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] mwc2914:
although it can plays , but very slow respond , i don.t know if the resolution or my phone's problem.

i have to give up.

anyway thanks
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] GigiAUT:
What settings would you recommend to convert the videos? i.e. Resolution, bitrate, codecs, compression, etc.

I've tried RockPlayer Universal and ArmV6. The Arm6_VFP doesn't work, but the normal ArmV6, Universal and arcMedia work, but very very sluggish and the audio doesn't sync right. Could be the video file though.
[Captivate Accessories] hobbbbit:
I ordered those from eBay for around $15, they just arrived today. Tried to apply body protector first. Body protector is made out of 5 pieces and no matter how hard you would try to fit them, it's impossible to get them to stick nicely and not move. Started with the battery cover piece that's the largest and easiest to apply, it turned out to be just a little too big and when I put battery cover back on the of the phone, sides of the protector unglued and let the air under them which created bubbles. Tried side protector next, but that thing is impossible to fit. Gave up on the whole body protector and though to just apply screen protector and keep my gel case for now.

Screen protector is of the most horrible quality I've ever seen in my life! It's so grainy, it looks like my screen has a resolution of about 100x40 after application. More than that I'm not sure if it's because I used soaped water (as per instructions) or for some other reason, but parts of the screen-protector actually turned grey (against black background), some other parts are a bit clearer, but still, grain kills the whole thing. Ripped it off and will be waiting for some better screen-protectors to show up on the market.

Don't waist your money on those.
[Captivate Accessories] olieebur:
Great I just ordered one a few days ago.
[Captivate Accessories] accinfo:
same here...
[Captivate Accessories] LGSilva:
I almost ordered one but then I got the zagg screen only with 20% off. When I receive it I let you guys know.
[Captivate Accessories] DirtyRasa:
Same here

My Zagg should be here tomorrow
[Captivate Accessories] sn1per420:
I ordered a similar protector from clearfreak (they were the only ones selling a protector for the captivate when I ordered about 10 days ago), and it came in the other day. While the material itself seemed about on par with the zagg protectors (I've used Zagg before), the screen protector was a bit too big, so theres a bubble going across the top where the protector wraps around the top of the phone.

I see that zagg has protectors now, so I guess I'll get one of those. They seem to have changed up their offerings a bit, they offer full body "maximum coverage" and "easy install"; can anyone tell me how difficult the maximum coverage protector is to apply? I've done a zagg full body install on my zune hd, so I understand that these things are a bit tricky to get on just right, but I want to know if the full body is significantly harder than the easy install one with a bit less coverage.
[Captivate Accessories] Pmac25:
How is the touch screen after you put on the screen protector? I have had a few that really seemed to mess with the touch screen. It seemed like it took twice as much pressure for it to react.

Is that the case with the captivate as well?
[Captivate Accessories] sn1per420:
Capacitive touchscreens aren't pressure sensitive, so protector or not, how hard you press shouldn't make a difference. That being said, I have a Zagg invisibleshield on my zune hd, and it hasn't affected the touch sensitivity at all.
[Captivate Accessories] akbernath:
I've used BodyGuardz and Zagg before. The one piece of advice I have is, instead of using the soaped water they give you, use isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. It lets you slide the cover to the correct position very easily and will just evaporate out from under the cover, leaving no bubbles. I had a super clean install on my HTC Pure that way. To be safe I'd also remove the battery and make sure the phone has plenty of time to dry before you turn it on again. Also, if you enter ZAGG's weekly iPad giveaway thingy they have been giving out 40 and 50% off coupon codes.
[Captivate Accessories] aclockwrk:
I just got the AT&T screen protectors (pack of 3 for $10). I actiually got it for 5 (50% off through FAN account) and they are of good quality, clear and fit perfectly. There's even a cutout for the earpiece speaker and light and proximity sensors.

The two AT&T stores I went to did not have them but the AT&T smaller stores in the malls did.
[Captivate Accessories] milkman1026:
I got the full body Invisible Gadget Guard, and mine looks fine. I didn't use soapy water, just plain old water, and everything fits perfectly, except for when I was dipping it in the bowl of water it snagged on the side of the bowl and when I made the mistake of trying to pull it off, it stretched, but I just cut it to fit and it's hardly noticeable.

Although, I won't lie. I did order the Zagg front screen protector for the fact that I know it works. I did the infamous "key test" on this cheap one, and it performed surprisingly well..

But it's not completely a rip-off if done right, especially for the $5 I paid. :D
[Captivate Accessories] accinfo:
you paid 5 bucks?
[Captivate Accessories] cliffgardner:
Let us know when you all get your Zagg Invisible Shield protectors in. I am trying to decide between Zagg and BodyGuardz. I haven't used either but I love the device entire too much to cover with a case.

With a 45 day money back guarantee, surely it cannot be that bad for the $24.
[Captivate Accessories] dappy15:
I bought the Invisible Gadget Guard off Ebay as well for $13.97 with a free car charger. I used just water to get it on. At first, it felt and looked awful but given 2 days, everything smoothed out and I was able to get all bubbles off. It's actually pretty nice now. I had to snip a little of the sides because I stretched it a little too long, but that's not a big deal.
[Captivate Accessories] sn1per420:
I have a Zagg on my Zune HD, and initially I felt like it was a bit rubbery, but I left it on to see what happened, and after a week or so, it didn't feel rubbery anymore to me. You have to be really careful with the installation, make sure you dont get any dust/debris under the protector, but after that you can throw it in your pocket without any worries.

I got a phantomskinz for my captivate, since it ended up being similar in price to the Zagg but comes with 2 instead of one, and I'll post back here with impressions once it comes in.
[Captivate Accessories] accinfo:
do you have any pic?
[Captivate Accessories] dappy15:
I'll try to get a pic up tonight.
[Captivate Accessories] michintom:
I bought it and it was total crap. Waste of money!
[Captivate Accessories] olieebur:
Well I just finished installing this, and TBH it wasn't that bad... I've done many type of film installations on cars and stuff and it was very similar to doing it on the phone. I took my time with it and I am actually very satisfied with the result. It gives the phone a very needed grippy feel. Some pieces weren't the most perfect size to fit but it covered most of the area pretty well. I will got some pictures up later tonight. You really have to take your time with this installation or get a professional to do it, other wise you will end up like some people on here not very satisfied at all.
[Captivate Accessories] dappy15:
I've had it on for a week now and I've grown to like it quite a bit. Still considering getting a case since it won't protect it from drops.
[Captivate Accessories] jamespaulritter:
Invisible Gadget Guard screen protector = Junk!

I bought the Invisible Gadget Guard screen protector and put it on today. I am always able to put screen protectors on so perfectly that you can never tell they are even on.

1) I washed my hands throughly.

2) I ran a hot shower to pull all the dust out of the air in the bathroom.

3) I cleaned with the microfiber and applied the Invisible Gadget Guard screen protector so evenly and carefully.

It is impossible that there could have ever been anyone who could have done it better! But you know what? The Invisible Gadget Guard screen protector is lousy junk!

a) It makes the screen looks hazy.

b) It reduces the responsiveness of the screen and soft buttons.

c) It adds a grippy feel to the screen so my finger no finger no longer "glides" accross the screen.

Complete waste of time and money!
[Captivate Accessories] sn1per420:
Impressions

So my phantomskinz came in yesterday. Install was definitely harder than the zagg, partly because the pieces are cut much closer to the screen dimensions, so there's less margin for error when you lay it down. Took me 3 tries to get it alligned properly, and it was harder to avoid bubbles compared to the zagg. However, I managed to get all the bubbles out using the card included with the film. There were some blurry spots/streaks, but it mostly cleared up after 6 hours. As of right now (~24 hours post install), with the screen off I can barely tell it's there. When I have a white background on the screen, there are some vertical streaks, but they seem to be disappearing (they're less noticeable than they were last night). Touch sensitivity is not affected at all, and doesn't really feel rubbery anymore.

Comparisons

I've got a zagg film on my zune hd, and I used a clearfreak on this phone for a week, so I'll provide some comparisons here.

Compared to the zagg and clearfreak, I'd say the phantomskinz was much harder to install, but the final product is better. It covers a bit more of the screen, and it looks a bit less textured than the other two as well. None of the three feel rubbery to the point where it affects my ability to swipe across the screen, but I feel like the phantomskinz might be a bit less rubbery than the other two. All three of the films do pick up fingerprints which wipe off fairly easy, but the phantom skinz seemed most resistant to prints, and was easier to wipe clean. As far as touch sensitivity, the clearfreak did seem to slightly reduce sensitivity, but the zagg and phantomskinz did not.

Final Thoughts

The clearfreak protector slightly reduced sensitivity of the screen, and it was too long, which resulted in an ugly bubble across the top of the screen where it wrapped around the top. While zagg and phantomskinz are *very* close in look/performance, I'd say phantomskinz wins out because:

a) It costs the same for a full body kit/bit less for just the screen, and you get two sets instead of one with zagg

b) It is less susceptible to fingerprints

c) It is just slightly less textured/rubbery once installed

d) It covers a little bit more of the screen than the zagg protector

pics attached, and full res originals are in that zip file if anyone cares for that.
[Captivate Accessories] olieebur:
After waiting a day, the haze is now gone and the screen doesn't feel as grippy.. zagg is also like this.
[Captivate Accessories] hobbbbit:
So after Invisible Gadget Guard protector proven itself useless, I ordered BodyGuardz full skin protector and ran into exactly the same problems. Body protector was made out of 5 parts, but I've started with the screen protector first, and after I applied it, it came up exactly as Invisible Gadget Guard, too grainy, absolutely killing beautiful screen on Captivate. I let it set for about 12 hours and it became a bit better, but still, not good enough.

So I ended up going to the AT&T store and buying a pack of 3 screen protectors for $9.99. On one hand, they are very clear and hardly noticeable at all. On the other - they are dust and sweat magnets, after every phone call I have to clean up the screen, otherwise I can't see much. They are also easily stretchable, even after installation when I used provided card to move out air bubbles from under protector, it scratched them.

I guess I'll just use them for now and wait for BoxWave to come up with screen protectors for Captivate. I had the best results with them on my Touch Pro, very clear and yet not that easy to scratch.
[Captivate Accessories] pantsmessiah:
Based on this review, I bought one of their "new" Chromatics covers.

After shipping it was ~$2 more than the Zagg full body protection.

I'll edit with my experience when I get them, but initial pros is the white carbon fiber case looks like it gives the phone a nice storm trooper / portal turret look to it hah
