    Root Going to flash my phone soon, quick questions

    In short, I have been running the Rubix rom for awhile now (1.5, haven't updated beyond that yet) and I have grown tired of things seemingly not working properly (for example, the swype keyboard VERY rarely allows me to quick-change a word with 1 tap since I have been running Rubix, but it did...

    Help Sudden horrible battery life....

    Well today I went to lunch, when I got back I checked my phone and it was down to 70% battery life after 4 hours of no use. I checked Spare Parts, it showed the phone as having only slept 50% of the time, and something called "init" had been using the CPU for a little over 2 hours and the phone...

    Help Adobe Flash stuck in AppBrain with 2.2

    Pretty much exactly what the thread title is, any way to get rid of it without removing flash? If I tell it to update it says "The requested item could not be found." and goes back to the appbrain screen. Not a major issue but its getting annoying seeing it in there any time I go into...

    Help Does the battery read high or low?

    This is not a battery life thread, in short all I wish to know is whether the Droid X battery (which stupidly only reads in 10% intervals) is reported higher or lower than its actual value? For example, when it is at 70% reported, is it at 79% (or lower)? Or is it at 61% or higher? Obviously...

    Help LauncherPro Dock icon help

    Instead of the default apps (such as gmail or text messaging), I use k-9 mail and handcent and as such, have gmail set to not receive email, and text messaging to not use notifications. Is there any way to have LP show unread mail or messages with non-standard apps? If so, how? Thanks.

    Help Swype issues on 2.2

    Ever since I updated to 2.2, Swype has continued to work, but I have been unable to double-tap a word to bring the the correction menu. If it doesn't know what word I want it brings up the list fine, but if it doesn't bring up the list I am unable to double-tap the word to bring up the list...

    Help Replace Lock Screen?

    What is a good free lock screen replacement? I tried lockbot, but it changes style on every lock, and it has some weird bug where if I use the button to lock it, it goes black, then the unlock screen appears (screen doesn't turn off). I do not care much about theming it myself as long as it has...

    Root Few questions about root

    Trying to decide if I need to root my phone or not, its my first phone, but I am very tech savvy in general and would like to remove some of the apps I will never use that came on it. 1) What is the main purpose of root? To uninstall extra apps (like the Blockbuster and Amazon MP3 app) that...

    Help Possible bad battery?

    In short, my battery was at 100% at 5:15 pm, it is now 6:06 and my battery is at 80% already. According to the battery manager, I have been using the phone for ~45 minutes, mostly web browsing for that time. That seems like very crappy battery life to me, 20% in 45 minutes. Gps, wifi...

    Help Ringer volume

    In short the default ringtones seem to have a really low volume compared to many other phones imo. Any way to turn it up higher than the normal settings allow you to? Or do I need to install alternate ringtones? If so, what are some good ringtone apps to handle this? I have thought about...
