Chrome 2 Phone is awesome!
Also Chrome 6 for your computer is a must. It can sync to your google account. So you can be on any computer, log into chrome and you have all your bookmarks, extensions etc.
There's a couple new HTC Mail widgets you can select. Not gmail.
When you select the old HTC Mail widget, there are now three types of widgets to choose from vs before when there was only one.
Optical pad works like a gem now!
Have Flash 10.1 but I heard there's another update to the one that comes with FROYO, can anyone confirm that?
I can finally post this now that Im using my home PC because whenever I tried coming here, and many other sites, my internet would just quit. I'd click back on the net, and it just brings me back to the homepage.
Whats up with that? Anyone else having those problems with the net??
This was happening to me too but I discovered it was actually the Gmail Unread Count widget that was doing it. Put the plain Gmail app on your screen and see if that fixes it.I always use the 'back to inbox', and when I open gmail again using the actual app it takes me right back to the message.
Thank you SOOOO MUCH for all of your help! Do you think you can help me out with my "incoming call" screen? I've been searching and posting for help but no one seems to be willing to and it's bugging the heck out of me..<cry> Had a nice long reply nearly finished and my computer crashed. At least chrome saved the quote part, just gotta retype everything now
before or after factory reset?

Before. What exactly would a factory reset do? Wipe everything?
In appbrain, just hit the red "X" next to the flash update thing. Then press skip this update or hide this update. I cant remember exactly what it says as my phone is off and charging.
yes, there is. The version that comes with FROYO is 10.1.72. The new version is 10.1.92.8

scroll down to download, download the update, put the file in your SD card, run the file, and click on update.
Thanks. i realized I can't access my SD card now with froyo, due to that stupid Verizon sync popup I get when I plug my phone in.
What Do I do to get to my SD card? And once there, do I just run the apk file while on my PC?
download astro in the market.....when connect to the computer.....click menu-settings-connect to pc-under default connection, change todisk drive-go to my computer and open the sd card (it should now be recognized as a seperate drive on ur computer- transfer the file from your computer to your sd card- unplug the phone- open astro manager- find the file and click it to open......if you download the file straight from your phone then u can locate your phone with astro manager.
Send me a PM with details and I can look into, probably not tonight though.
Yes, it would wipe everything. ( Minus the SD card and 2.2 in and of itself. ) This fixes most issues, but not all.
I've noticed that I can't search for contacts using the search soft button anymore. I was looking up "Ricky" and it was suggesting Ricky Martin and Gervais... No! those people aren't in my contacts! Find Ricky that I have in my phone!
So is it even worth it? What will it all fix?
OK, I dont know why i have to do this, but it works. from the Search screen, hit Menu->Search Settings->Searchable Items and uncheck "web" and check "people".
I thought the thing about the Android system was that I could search for everything on the phone without having to disable and enable options.
I do not use many widgets but tonight I noticed that you can Get More Widgets. It is the first option under Widgets. You can choose which ones to Install. Has it always been there and I didn't notice or is it new?
You thought "the thing" (whatever that means) about Android was that it wouldn't let you choose what you would like to search for?
What are you confused about? If you want it to search everything in the world, check all the boxes.
Could you explain what's happening one more time? I don't know if I'm following ...
