I do on b/c I use it as my alarm and my old phone when I turned it off and the alarm was on it went off every 3 hrs. Will the eris so that too or am I safe to turn in off and it will still go off at the correct time?
I leave the phone off until it's completely charged to be safe.
And the Eris won't cut on automatically for any reason, sadly. I miss that auto-on/auto-off feature from the BlackBerry.
