Samsung Still Loves Developers

This image has no alt text

Samsung’s Open Source website has just officially distributed the source code for the Samsung Captivate to anyone willing (and understandably wanting) to download it. The 161MB source package will help developers in creating ROMs for the device for users in the root community to enjoy. This is nothing new for Samsung: the Samsung Vibrant’s (SGH-T959) source has also been available for some time, as well as the source for the international version of the phone. It won’t surprise us when the source for their other Galaxy S phones (the Samsung Fascinate and the Samsung Epic 4G) are released (after the phones themselves are released, of course).

Head over to Samsung’s Open Source site to download now (click the Mobile tab in the top bar and look for SGH-i897 to get started).

    Quite contrasting to Moto who lock theirs down, and then don’t make any announcements about 2.2 for Milestone so you’re literally stuck with their last release!
