I have loved this Eris from day one. And after rooting it, it's even started causing marital problems for me
But yesterday I was driving and the car in front of me (for no apperent reason) went off the road and hit a cement fence.
I immediately got out of my car to check if the girl was ok. While she was trying to figure out what had hit her(airbag), I was trying to dial 911. Trying being the key word. Well, I'm pretty sure I connected. My phone even vibrated(some 911 emergency feature???), but i got nothing but silence. Yup.. nothing!
Fortunately other people started running up and I yelled at them to call 911. And fortunatelly no one was hurt. But I couldn't call 911. That really sucks!!!
In the past it has just been frustrating... mainly with my wife. But like you all know... after a reboot everything is fine.
But i think this was the last straw for me.
I dont want to even deal with phone swaps from Verizon... since I know the problem will still be there and probably wont be able to root. So I would be in a worse position.
So this is where I'm going with this... Moto Droid? I can't afford any of the newer phones coming out. And I saw a couple on Craigslist in my area for a decent price.
It would end up free if I sell My Eris on Ebay. They're selling for good prices still.
But I feel like shit giving someone else this problem.
Do I loose out on $150-200 and not sell it because of this problem?
