What do I use to get this? I have metamorph and CWM?

Also, nice mod, though I think I'll stick to the black speaker.

You can't have your phone and eat it too.

While it looks nice, it isn't something I'm insane enough to attempt. Besides, I'm quite attached to my all black ninja phone.

Awesome mod. My GPS now locks on instantly and Nav works as intended. No more driving through fields and buildings. :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] rob989_69:
After using the phone like this for a while I've realized that this mod has caused a drastic increase in the amount of radiation emitted by my phone. All the hair on the right side of my head is falling out and my right ear has curled up like cauliflower...

Just wanted to give anyone out there fair warning if you're thinking about attempting this. I'm just hoping I die quicker than the poor guy who stabbed himself..
[Captivate Themes and Apps] joeybear23:
I'll get right on that.

You're in Nigeria, right...

Or is it that you now *have* a *titanium "back" up* ?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] lanisan:

Can you side load it?

Does it void your warranty?

Is this like a *natural* flash (camera flash lol )?

Tech support at At&t believes my random shutdowns are due to the

"Silver Speaker Mod", can anyone else confirm?;)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] modmyphone:
The tech I spoke to said that the mod wasn't even out yet. After about about 20 minutes of back and forth, they handed me up to a supervisor who said that I can expect the mod sometime in early 2011.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] xtremekilla09:
Can anyone help me?

I really want try this mod out, but I can't find the download link.

After installing silver speaker mod, my phone now posts here by itself, I now take no responsibility for it's actions. But even the silver speaker mod can tell that this thread has been going since December 2010, so it does not believe that a few months really makes any notable difference let alone any reason to scrutinize any posts, currently or in the future, that my silver speaker mod may decide to post.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] topiratiko:
Come to think of it, my Galaxy SII earpiece looks familiar...but I'll hold off on trying it as its still MINT

[Captivate Themes and Apps] 4-2ndtwin:
Yep...speaker mod is stock with sgs 3 and works good, but the silver Home button mod :eek: is yet to be flashed by me. Waiting on reports from others, to see if it is stable enough for a daily driver. :D

Back when this phone was the big dog on the block
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jayRokk:
To me my Cappy wat the biggest dog on the block.

I even got my friend a cappy so I can root it for him and mod him out Lol

I will always keep a Samsung device. Its the best to be honest.

But the forums and the people are the best and I love the experience I've had so far.. The GS3 isn't so friendly so I miss the Cappy/Infuse/Note forums. And they're all Samsung Lol :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] leezrd:
But what could be more fun than a task AOKP thread? Lol

I don't know how I missed this thread back in the day, maybe just to afraid to try the mod.....

I did however just buy a cappy off e-bay that was bricked...The first thing I noticed was that this mod had been attempted on the device but was never completed. I cleared everything and started from "scratch" and once successfully completed, The device booted as it should.:victory:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ArchTyriel:
Lol I lost it. I'm glad this got resurfaced for my noob eyes.

I'll have to complete this mod.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] boborone:
So I'm a lil disappointed that my N4 doesn't have a speaker grill to perform this mod on. :(

Want some boot loops? Have some. I got plenty to spare.

After this mod my cappy hacked thru google servers and upgraded itself to kitkat.

I just did this mod, and it swear it's the BEST!! I did this last night and everything went really well, I was worried in doing it but I have to say your instructions were well detailed; Thanks!! I do have a couple problems though; I get up this morning, and I'm heading off to work and I notice and my battery has gone to hell, PLUS my GPS doesn't work!!

**Edit** GPS started working again....

**Edit#2** It stopped working again! ;) ;) ;)

God I love sarcasm
[Captivate Themes and Apps] warri:
I seem to be having the charge of death issue with this mod
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Fortune090:
We really need an official FroYo source... I could definitely see that fixing all of our problems.

Slightly sarcastic... somewhat serious, haha.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Stephenv1971:
Those of you with improved gps performance, we need to watch this for at least a week. You probably don't know this but gps degrades over time after one of these fixes in almost all cases. I'm not convinced, but we really need to hijack this thread in favor of the gps conversation, it simply isn't getting enough attention on these forums.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] King Shady:
Screw the Nexus S and gingerbread. This mod is where its at!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jdbeitz:

I will be skipping this mod because it doesn't have a sexy robot voice. Maybe it can be added to the next update.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] froli13:
I'm expecting a "speaker scratching kit" on eBay for the next release though...

Edit: Before I apply this mod, can you tell me if your planning a notification-led speaker mod?

Seriously this "mod" is great! My Cappy looks way better now! Haha this thread is hillarious!!

Hey nobody is talking about the GPS performance. Whats your gps doing now?

THIS MOD MADE MY PHONE SO AMAZING! after scratching off what i thought was a meaningless amount of black film, my phone is now getting at least 647.839 MFLOPS!!!! im running opengl tests at 395 FPS!!!!! gps is locking on before i even think about where i need to go. I LOVE THIS MOD. thank you steak knife, for discovering how to really unlock the potential in this phone.:p
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Slc60:
my phone retaliated, and broke my fingernail.... darn you cappy! i want a silver speaker.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jeffdude123:
wow this looks really good
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cmeyer3:
After doing this my local AT&T store thinks this is the reason for random shut down and poor gps. The upside is they said this was the last step in making the captivate froyo ready and we should expect the release any time between tomorrow and christmas 2025. Maybe borrowing my girlfriends nail polish to change the color of the speaker now.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Stephenv1971:
That's it, the gps on this thing sucks. I'm going to go buy a nokia.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Haloruler64:
Not an iPhone? Its GPS is great, and it has a faster processor and more RAMs
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Stephenv1971:

Btw, the AT&T Logo mod can be accomplished with a good rubberized case :)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Aus_Azn:
I downloaded the CWM .zip file, it did the job but now my phone can't receive voice calls! Reflashed my modem and Nandroid'd back, and it still didn't work!

Dammit! Phone is now one sweet-looking brick.

/sarcasm, but this is one great looking mod. Adds just that extra bit of flair from the all-black front.

To those taking about the AT&T logo mod, I wish we still lived in the age where all of the branding was removable with nothing but a sugar cube taken to the emblem.

Hey guys, after reading about all the improvements from this mod, I did it....but it doesnt seem to work for me. Is there a particular order by which the paint needs to be peeled to get the gps working?

Might leave mine once you've had black there's no going back. Lol .........
[Captivate Themes and Apps] x986123:
Is this compatible with Sense UI?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] funem:
Hi, I quite like the MOD, I did it on my wife’s phone and initially she liked it, but now she has changed her mind and wants her old speaker look back again as she said it looks like the top of a cheap shaver. Can you supply the uninstall/removal please. I tried to Google one but all I came back with was adverts for black duck tape, I would prefer the correct fix.

Please hurry as my wife is threttening to MOD me with the same knife.
