just found an app to replace youtube when you want to stream a vid in 720p
JetVD (free in the market)
works AWESOME
too bad it doesn't have youtube's UI. Other than that you can download or stream 720p youtube vids.

appbrain is awesome - you can set it up so that you can browse the app market on your computer, then when you click "install", it automatically does it on the phone (no USB connection needed! just a data/wifi signal)

Hey guys, so if I'm looking at jumping into android (not rushed though).
What would be the best option currently, and say, within the next month or two?
I'm leaning towards the Samsung Vibrant?

I still think the NEXUS ONE is better due to the fact that its got so much more in terms of customization

Samsung's Nexus Two looks like a sure winner.

OCLF?
because i noticed the OCLF starts to lag after a day or so
quadrant scores don't really mean much
im on doc's v6 rom right now and my quadrant scores are in the 1500s yet it's way way smoother than any lagfix I've tried in the past

Got a noob question here. Does the GPS function in this phone or any other smart phones out there require data access?

GPS Depends on the app. If you're using something like google navigate yes it uses data. Otherwise it should read maps off the phone.

The actual "lockon" of satellites is done via an on board GPS receiver.
Just make sure you turn off "use mobile networks" in the "location" settings menu

NO idea. but it was definately 2.2
The first thing that struck me was the <<< Sweep Screen to Unlock >>> (complete with arrows)...
Then all the icons in the settings were coloured. So after that I went to check the system information, and found out that it was 2.2
This was Lansdowne Future Shop btw

So out of the two Galaxy phones out there, which of them do you guys prefer? I've only seen the Vibrant in person and it feels VERY cheap. To the point that if I put it in my pocket if I sit the wrong way it feels like it's going to break in half. How are the Captivate reviews? Seems like it's a bit smaller (for fitting in a pocket) and is a bit sturdier? Can I get some insight? I just got an Iphone4 32 gig this morning with Bell and already have it up for sale so I can buy an android phone (bell didn't have anyone I liked).

I got the T-mobile Vibrant, which is identical to the Bell one sans the big home button...
It's light, it's plasticky. But once I got a case for it, it feels pretty solid and durable.
The captivate though, I believe the battery cover is made with metal rather than plastic - so that might contribute to it feeling more solid

It looks more solid.
