hi, Gary

it's been a long time, how's your galaxy treating ya? thanks for the update :lol:

Hi Lancez,

Don't know where to begin about my Galaxy S. All phones - no matter Android or WinMo or iOS or whatever have problems. No phone is perfect. Everyone finds something they do not like. It's a matter of customizing to your taste.

I like my Galaxy S a lot better than my O2. The one thing that is really great is that any program you download and install from the Android Market, you will get update notifications.

The phone in general is lighter and thinner than the O2 and a much bigger screen (4"). The super-amoled screen is gorgeous! As far as customizations, people are working on them. Fairly easy to install.

If you know anything about linux, the O/S is easy to understand but not as easy to change - most things (apps, etc.) need to be signed. Not a big deal but time consuming.

I have done some customizing on mine - mostly colored icons - but am trying to learn about customizing the O/S since I have a background in working and making O/Ses for FreeBSD (similar to linux).

I think it is worth the move. More and more people are going to android because of the many features and fewer problems compared to Windows. I can actually say I really love this phone compared to my O2.

I still have my O2 which I will be making new ROMs for. I even have my I900.

Customizations are a different story for the android phones, but many people have done a lot of customizations and made them available and have provided easy install scripts (update.zip files). There are fact sheets about customizations.

The phone itself is very easy to work with - many menus that allow you to do most anything. Installing apps is a breeze with the phone showing what features of the phone the app will access so you can decide whether to install or not.

I've had my Galaxy S for about 2 months now. Bottom line - if I had to do it over I would buy the Galaxy S phone again.

Won't sell my O2 though as I still want to make custom ROMs.

Hi Gary.

Just wondering what the difference is between the JH2 you posted a few days ago

and the one posted yesterday?

I assume it's the same rom, just cleaned up/changed a bit?

Cheers,

Matt.

The JH2-23689 has newer MS system code thus the 5.3.8 version.

Thank you for the very nice most recent ROM.

I installed yesterday and everything works very well.

One question though:

I downloaded the ROM 21 September 2010: JH2-23689 Lite version.

In Samsung settings it says:

under Device - PDA: GCJH2-23689

under Windows Mobile: CE OS 5.2.23103 (Build 23103.5.3.8)

Which one is correct ?

I am slightly confused.

CE OS 5.2.23103 (Build 23103.5.3.8) is the official build number.

GCJH2-23689 is my customization ID.

Both are correct.
