It looks like someone has successfully ported a Nexus S Android 2.3 Gingerbread to a Galaxy S. It’s not completely ported yet since a lot of major functionalities don’t work such as voice, wifi, etc…etc… But this is a good sign that it will eventually lead to custom ROMs users can download onto their Galaxy S phones.
Give it another 2 weeks, I bet we will have some
For those of you wondering and waiting when the Verizon Samsung Fascinate will be here, no more wondering and waiting as IT’S HERE TODAY!
Best of all, you can get two phones for the price of 1 and get up to 4 phones. I would just go buy a bunch of them and sell them off, really.
Samsung Fascinate has been spotted in the wild, seems like some Verizon stores (or Walmart probably) have them in stock. Anyways, it doesn’t look all that different than a Samsung Vibrant.
My guess is that the only difference between the Samsung Fascinate and Vibrant is the network (CDMA/GSM) plus the fact that Verizon will probably load Skype Mobile on it.
Whatever the case, this is certainly another great phone to get on the Verizon Wireless.
Now, you have a choice between 4.3-inch Droid X, 4-inch Samsung Fascinate, 3.7-inch Droid 2 and Increidble.
It seems like it won’t be too long before Samsung Fascinate will be launched in early September as our sources indicate that Verizon is already stocking the new Samsung Fascinate Android smartphones in their warehouses while MTV Awards (which will be held on September 12th) will be sponsored by Samsung Fascinate and Verizon Wireless.
This all means that we can expect a similar launch to the Droid 2, which was pretty low profile and for those of you who have been waiting eagerly for your new Samsung Fascinate, you might just get it in the next week or two.
Yup, Samsung Vibrant and all Galaxy S Android smartphones get DivX HD certified. DivX certification isn’t easy to get and this is certainly a wow-factor that goes for all the Galaxy-S branded smartphones.

For those of you who want to root your Samsung Vibrant, Samsung Captivate, Samsung Epic 4G, or Samsung Fascinate, you will need to download the Samsung USB driver program which will work across all Samsung Galaxy S platforms.

Like Sprint’s Samsung Epic 4G and T-Mobile’s new Samsung Vibrant, (man, I am having hard time even remembering these names now) Verizon will be launching their own Samsung Android smartphone, the Samsung Fascinate.
This certainly is going to be exciting for Verizon Wireless because they are already launching Motorola’s new Droid X (which I am actually playing with righ
