Samsung not only sent me a new phone, they sent me the Galaxy S 4G.... I no longer have a working Vibrant. I will leave my guides up and try to check them periodically.
If I am able to assist ANYONE, OR if my guides need to be updated, please let me know.
This is my 4th Android device, and I have to say the Vibrant had the best of everything. I am very grateful to you all and hope to help down the road!
ALSO, YOU ALL LIKELY KNOW THAT XDA USER OKA1 SENT ME HIS HD2 AS A LOANER... ITS AMAZING, AND NOW FOR SELL. PLEASE SHARE THIS LISTING VIA SOCIAL OUTLETS. CASEY DESERVES IT... A TRUE ASSET TO THIS COMMUNITY!!!

Once upon a time not so long ago my vibrant got stuck in a crazy bootloop and your guide bailed my noob-a#% out at 2 am. Many thanks bro... good luck

There goes another. As with all that have departed that have been an asset here you will be missed. Not sure I've ever personally interacted with you but I've always paid attention when I've seen your user name in a post or thread, always good information. Good luck we'll still be watching.

And all of that was a result of THIS community. I meant it, I consider myself lucky to have been a part of it. The pasture is not always greener... I can already tell I am going to miss the OG Vibrant - the 4G lost 15GB of internal memory.... that is absurd. I do not use a FFC, but the download speeds are about double... so I wont complain too much.
Thank you all for the kind words. I meant it, let me know if I can help.
Also, the Vibrant 4G guides suck - think I have some work to do
Your loss to the vibrant community is as big as a dev leaving. Thanks for all your help to me. You and your guides helped me so much. I don't think there is anyone here that tried to help and be as positive about it as you. Congratulations on the new phone. God bless bro!!
sad to see ya go s15274n, i remember it was your noob guide that got my vibrant rooted to begin with, and the rest was history, i know you'll help guide that section to its potential like you helped this one.
Although I have not personally interacted with you, have seen lot of helpful articles and guides from you. Makes me sad some of the most vocal guys and active devs are leaving lately. I guess it was just a matter of time. Vibrant being my first smart phone and still so much in love with, the feeling is kinda weird. I keep myself up-to-date with all the latest in the world of mobile phones and nothing has made me think of upgrading from Vibrant so far (except the GS II international). Wish you the best with Vibrant 4G. Stop by once a while if you have important android news to share, okay?
Thanks a lot for your help. Greetings
A sad day indeed. Thanks for all that you did for us

I just wanted to inform all the good people of XDA for helping out me out. It all started with me asking total noob questions such as "What is rooting" to finally having great guides to teach me about rooting. Now, my phone is completely rooted, voodooed, and just spanking fantastic. It's fascinating how a phone can do so much. I can't wait till XDA works hard to crack the 2.2 update in the future and I just wanted to say, Thank you very much.
I second that. Came in here with no knowledge of the subject of roots, and after a couple of weeks of reading I feel I can safely edit my phone. Thank you to all who contribute.
Thirded. It's quite amazing how quickly this phone has come along. Big thanks to the devs for their hard work. Also, lol @ the OP's fascinate pun.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
U'll can thank a lot of these guys by donating. Most of them have ways to do that.
I'm gonna echo the OP's sentiments exactly. After everybody's help & responsiveness here at xda I feel like I've been able to make the right choices about phones & apps & what to do with them. After everyone's input on my OP, droid x or fascinate?, I'm sticking with the fascinate due to my confidence in what these devs can accomplish with a truly open platform.

+1. I'm new to the android scene. Thanks to XDA and its helpful guides and members, my phone's now rooted and zipper than ever.
Some other folks here and I have had this phone since Last fall, and this dev community has exploded since then. Thanks to the devs, this phone is exactly how I want it.

This thread must be dead sexy.

Classy.
-Hai guise I haz problems on the pre-alpha release and I don't know why.
I just wanted to send a simple, humble thanks to all the Devs out there who spend countless (and manytimes thanksless) hours updating the Android OS's.
Without them most of us (if not all) would be stuck using the providers locked down and bloated OS -
thank you for all of your hard work
thank you for answering our many times ignorant questions
Thank you again -

Indeed. I chose android solely because of the development community. I didn't just blindly grab any phone I could, I did a little research and knew it had to be android and it had to be HTC. And thanks to the support and quality that devs put into these devices I will be a dedicated HTC/android customer for as long as both exist.
A big thank you to everyone who puts in work, especially the cyanogenmod team.

BIG DITTO to this, exactly the reasons I came over to Android and in particular HTC.
I was completely unprepared for how much work has been put in by the devs and community - Bravo everyone and in particular the hard work of the modders!
To be honest... I bought this phone back in October bc it was NOT an iPhone which was very important to me. I didn't even know what android was. Now I'm addicted and my girlfriend hates my phone . Thank you so much devs for giving me a hobby. Idk that I can really be thankful enough for what y'all have done for me. My whole life really. I was just kind of wandering aimlessly before but not anymore!
Go!

Well ya'll. I thought I'd jack Esteway's goodbye thread.
Because I liked him.
I just picked up a Galaxy Nexus. So if I'm not gone, I won't be around nearly as often as I was.
Thank you to everyone I met and shared experiences with.
Thank you for helping me learn about Android and get me to where I am now(I was a complete noob when I started )
Thank you to the amazing developers who made this phone amazing. We've seen way more Android versions than most, and we will continue to see more.
Thank you to Kennyglass123 specifically. You are one of the best people ever, and I was way too excited when you became a moderator. Keep it up, you're amazing.
Thank you to the contributers who help new users. Lurkers learn a lot from watching, and your knowledge spreads fast and effectively.
Thank you the the community as a whole. I love you so much, and it is, has always been, and will always be the best community in Android history.

hey pimp, thanks for all ur work and support for this device and helping the users as well:good:
Just wanted to say over all this community is pretty good. It is time I move on to another device. Gonna sell my atrix and get a better computer. My little atom 1.6 NetBook sucks and I feel like I can't do real development until I get a better computer like I had in my x10 development days. I always wanted to try the aTrix so bought one.. It was always a second phone as I have a gs2.
I appreciate everyone trying my roms and any help others have given me. I will have the phone for a week or two more so will tidy up some roms if I can before leaving.
Regards

Well its not... eh sort of just ordered my gnex today. Soo pretty soon here I will being jumping forums. Id just like to start an appreciation thread. I don't know if most people realize this but, this forum is in pristine organization. Looking at my new forum... it is SO unorginized so crowded, and people hardly get along. Here people collaborate, help, and inform. However we do have our flame wars.... but those are soon resolved. Also people here are very appreciative... I don't know how or what exactly I did to deserve 900+ thanks... but people sure do appreciate things. Anyways to wrap this up id just like to say thanks for the wonderful expierence with android and xda. Had it not been for the orginized and close-nit community we have here in the Epic 4g forum I would still be running an out-dated version of android or a bloated version.
Thanks
So here express what you are thankful for in this Community.
