    Quick Note question

    Would it be safe to assume that any Galaxy Note you buy in the US "new" would be the LTE model? I am considering getting one once my Sprint contract is up in 2 weeks.

    Root Root not working after applying OTA on rooted phone?

    Make sure that before you run Unrevoked, you remove all the other zip files from the root of your SD card at least that worked for me - Unrevoked would not get past the "Hboot" message and phone would reboot in an unrooted state. Once I cleaned them out and re-ran Unrevoked the root proceded...

    Root Why did you navigate to this forum?

    I'm thinking if most users are like myself, they check in here a couple times a day for one reason only "Is 2.2 rooted yet?". I did however want to non-scientifically test this theory, what better way than with a pole.

    TWIT.tv streams live on EVO with 2.2

    Just an FYI - on 2.1 Twit Live stream was dead, now it is alive and well - at least for me the 400kpbs stream seems rock solid. Sorry if you aren't into Twit, but I watch that livestream pretty regularly.

    Froyo fo yo EVO?

    Announcements: Sprint expects to launch Android 2.2 in near future Well the term "Near future" is vague, but at least it's news direct from Sprint. I really like 2.1 and if 2.2 lives up to the hype the EVO will only get better. Does anyone have previous experience with Sprint announcements...

    Modifying Sense

    I'm looking for a way to change default screens in Sense. I like Sense, and most of the screens, I actually just want to lose the media player screen - I can access players from the apps screen, and I did not want to waste an entire screen on the player.

    4G in the Real World

    I was hoping that someone here could comment about "real world" 4G performance, I've heard both sides. Some saying it's blazingly fast, others saying its hit or miss with high latencies. I'm in the Seattle area which is supposedly saturated with 4G, I suppose I'll even be happy with 3G speeds...
