I have to throw out there that although the layout of the Moment is a little odd, the action (feel of the keys) is far superior to any other I have used...especially compared to the TP.

That's a bit off topic for this thread.

This looks promising: http://www.androidworld.it/2009/08/0...-galaxy-i7500/

The Galaxy apears to be identical minus the sliding keyboard, anyone want to try it cause mine is a work phone and if I brick it its my a$$ and my job.

I'd be willing to try but I dont think anyone has figured out how to get into fastboot on the moment. If I'm please someone let me know.

I know I read something somewhere about finding a fastboot mode on the Moment, it might have been on androidforums.com . If I can find it again, I'll post it here.

Also when I press all three buttons in addition to the volume down button the phone will reboot in a loop loading the Samsung (SPL?) logo. When the buttons let go it boots right up into android. Maybe that is fastboot?

I tried pressing volume down, call, middle, and end but nothing happened. It just booted as normal.

Pull the battery.

Put it back in.

Hold the Talk, Center and End buttons. Diagnostics menu... maybe this helps.

I am not around my device to play with that option right now.

We already know about the diagnostics menu. What we are trying to find/get is fastboot

I didn't see a mention of that in this thread... however, I was quickly browsing via my Treo, thought I'd share some info. Won't happen again...
