    I just replaced the keyboard

    I just successfully replaced my Droid's bubbly keyboard that's been getting more and more difficult to use. I have one of the early Droids that came with the bubbly or raised keyboard that everyone seemed to want at one time because of being easier to feel the individual keys. It was nice and...

    Root Amazing Droid performance increase

    I just installed Swapper 2 on my Droid today. I am quite simply blown away with the performance increase on my Droid. It feels like I have a new phone. I've been running with CyanogenMod 6 and a P3Droid 1GHz low voltage kernel (1GHz max, 250MHz min). The phone ran well, but I ran into a...

    Root FRG01B Market problems

    Is anyone else (and I know the answer must be "yes") having market issues with FRG01B? I am having issues with purchased protected apps (bTunes and RadioTime in my case) not showing up in the Market with BOTH the FRG01B Pete released on August 3 and the one Koush made available in Rom Manager...

    Root CyanogenMod Gmail Sync Delay

    I've been using Pete's release of ESE81 (not overclocked) fine for a few weeks now with absolutely no problems. I decided that I finally wanted to try out CyanogenMod and installed ROM Manager, the ClockworkMod Recovery and finally CyanogenMod 5.0.6.2. Yes, I made a backup of Pete's ESE81...

    Root Formatting partitions multiple times

    When flashing new ROMS (as in going from a 2.01 BB to a 2.1 based BB), what's the reason for formatting the various partitions (such as system & data) more than once?

    Root Temperature reading with TempMonitor and SetCPU

    I am currently running BB 0.5 / ESE53 (don't care about having more than three home screens) and AdamZ low voltage kernel at 800MHz. I have both SetCPU (obviously) and TempMonitor installed. I have TempMonitor set to display the temperature in the notification bar with the refresh interval at...

    Root Testing JIT?

    I installed Pete's BB v0.5 (ERE53) yesterday. Using the stock non-overclocked kernel, I am stunned at how much faster 2.1 is over 2.01. Anyway, I am curious about the JIT compiler and edited build.prop to enable it. I understand from reading either here or somewhere else that you don't have to...

    Wobbly Droid?

    Does anyone else have a wobbly Droid? First off, yes, I'm completely OCD regarding my phone. Second, this phone has never been dropped in any way. My Droid's bottom case seems very slightly warped. You can actually see it in the way the battery door sits in that its not flush with the case on...

    Fun with Droid at pub

    I maintain a computer used by patrons at my local pub. It's a Ubuntu box (formally XP) that someone was discarding. For fun, I installed the OpenSSH server on the computer and the ConnectBot SSH client on my Droid.... and proceeded to log into the machine from my phone and annoy my friends by...

    Swapped Droid, Capacitive Buttons Light & SD Card

    I swapped out my 44/09 Droid today for a variety of problems including random shutdowns, reboots, recorded video corruption (videos recorded with the Droid would often be corrupted) and light leaking onto the screen from the capacitive button backlights. Ever since I got the Droid in early...

    N1 Screen

    I just got my N1 about two hours ago and have been having fun with it and comparing it to my Moto Droid. I think the thing is great so far, but I think I may like the screen on the Droid a little better. 54 less vertical pixels than Droid. Does not bother me one bit. The N1 screen can be...

    New Orleans / Baton Rouge coverage

    Are there any TM users in the New Orleans area who can tell me how the voice / 3G coverage is around the area? How about between NOLA & Baton Rouge? I'm thinking of switching from Verizon to TM. I currently have the Moto Droid, but am extremely interested in the Nexus One.... and less...

    Switched from Eris

    I exchanged my Eris for a Droid yesterday. The Eris is a nice phone, but I didn't feel that I would be happy with it for a year much less two. The Eris was simply too slow for me. The Droid is an extremely fast phone and I'm extremely pleased with it. The only issue I have so far is that light...

    Eris issues

    I picked up a Droid Eris on the 7th. The phone is excellent, but I have had a few issues that someone can hopefully help with. I've seen this issue regarding the Hero, but have found no solutions. With certain apps from the market, upgrading the app and then rebooting the phone will change the...
