Back when we all found out about the bad gps on this phone there was talk to file a complaint against att for false advertising of gps capabilities with the Captivate. Well, I was pissed and went ahead and filed the complaint. I received a letter in the mail a few weeks ago that the FCC had...

Can anyone point me to a car charger I could use for this phone? I'd prefer a plain old USB charger so that we could use different cables for my wife's iPhone too. I ordered a few of the cheapos over at monoprice.com and they are a no go. They say charging but are actually draining the batter...

So this thing just started within the past week. My phone's stock gmail app will show new emails so I look at them and then they are all read, showing 0 new. But when I login to the web browser version, 5 minutes or even later(up to hours later), the web browser gmail is not updating to show...

Can anyone recommend a good bluetooth stereo headset? I'm sick of earbud wires dangling and getting caught on stuff when I work outside in the yard listening to music.

Remember when everyone found out Apple's phone had those antenna problems? Remember that? It took Apple only 22 days to make an official press conference about the matter. While it's a joke that the phone had problems, I applaud apple for owning up to the issue and talking about it. Now on...

Everyone knows that At&t is probably the worst major carrier in the US to be on if you want an Android device. So there has to be a reason you are praying Samsung announces the issues with the Captivate are fixable, or you would have jumped ship by now to have dozens of choices at the other...

So i've tried everything under the sun to try to get GPS to work better but I haven't found it yet. Now, I don't even know what the original stock settings are on the phone. Can anyone help me out? I need to know all of them, which is the following: Application Settings Session Type: Test...

Just rooted last night. I was wondering what are some of your favorite apps you use?

Have a look at: Samsung promises update for Vibrant and Captivate GPS issue | Android Atlas - CNET Blogs "We are diligently evaluating the situation and will provide an update as soon as possible." While it's not a specific date, I see this comment as better than some tech support guy's...

I've had the phone going on two weeks this Sunday and I still can't get Facebook to sync the contacts. It always says: "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." I was wondering if anyone else had this problem but was finally able to get a sync to occur by doing some...

Has Samsung, the company, even made a statement about GPS issues with their phone? I don't care if some Tech customer service rep in India says they are aware. But what about the company? Heading to the Captivate, I had heard bad things about Samsung not supporting/updating their devices...

I am just using the stock calendar app that came with the Captivate. It syncs with google just fine, but the location addresses are not clickable to pull up the map. Very frustrating. I had tried out the EVO for 3 weeks before getting the Captivate, and the stock android calendar would let me...

Anytime I click to add a new event it always defaults to "My Calendar"(phone built in one) as the Calendar it is going to add it too. I have checked my settings and I only have my google calendar checked so it shows all of those events. The "My Calendar" is unchecked too. But it always wants...

Anyone know how to keep the lights on the 4 buttons at the bottom? It gets annoying that they go off after like 5 seconds.
