Little Moreno info.

What ROM are you running, are you rooted, custom recovery installed, etc?

By ROM i think Kernel Version ? it is 2.6.32.9-perf
yes its rotted, no i don't have any custom recovery.

No I mean are you running stock DELL ROM or are you running something like StreakDroid, SimpleStreak, etc...

Anyway, if it were my phone, I would flash the ROM and see if that takes care of it. Most problems you see like, the best bet is to reflash ROM and start off fresh

It really has no more problems than many other smartphones, I have 2 other Android devices, and HTC Inspire and a Motorola Atrix, and I have just as much hair pulling days with them also.

Add Droid 2 and Droid 2 Global to that list.
