    Root New OTA and Root...

    So has anyone who is rooted seen any odd behavior after NOT taking the new update? I woke up the other day, turned on the phone and was told the new update was ready. I clicked Update Later. I've never seen the update message since, and when I go to System Updates it says it's up to date...

    Help 3G Network Flake Out?

    Ok, I've seen this across at least 2 different phones, wondering if anyone else has seen it. My phone has been working great since I got it, but yesterday, when I tried to do something that required 3G, it complained that a network error had occurred. In short, it won't go into 3G. If I'm in...

    Help Text-to-speech Extended?

    I wiped my phone and re-installed Google Translate recently. Like before, when I launch it the first time, it prompts me to download and install "Text-to-speech Extended" from the market. All the other times before (at least 5), I found the app without a problem in the market, loaded it, and...

    Help Still lacking...

    Ok, so this is more of an Android thing than Inc, but the two things that I think are still sorely lacking are support for Google Docs, and some form of Google virtual drive (like DropBox). On the Docs front, I realize there's GDocs, but since Google Docs is a Google initiative, it'd be nice to...

    Help MMS Messaging Issues

    So I've been battling a wierd MMS issue for a while now and have finally narrowed it down. It seems that I can send pictures to friends on VZW with no problems, but the one friend that I have who has an iPhone on AT&T I can't get pictures to. I realized today that I actually can get...

    Root 2.2 Root?

    So a friend just received his new Inc, and immediately took the upgrade, so now he's sitting at stock 2.2. I'm thinking the answer is no, but want to confirm that there is no way to root 2.2, or to revert back to 2.1 so he can root, right? Thanks, Doc

    Help Newer Version of Cool Iris?

    Has anyone found a version of Cool Iris (the Gallery app that comes on Nexus One and Droids) newer than 1.1.30682? It's a great app, but hoping to get a few more bug fixes (and maybe /emmc support?). It seems that you can download it from their site for every other platform on the planet, but...

    Camera Glitch?

    I've had my Inc for about 2 days now. I've only used the camera about 6 times, but have had this happen twice, so, so far, that 1/3 the time. I bring up the camera, then take a picture, screen freezes with picture on the screen. Buttons vibrate when I press, but no activity. Press power...

    Help How to set the lock screen?

    Ok, so I had an Eris before this, loaded with the 2.1v2 leak. I had some pics that I set aside as lock screens, and used them w/o a problem on the Eris. I put them on the Inc. today, went to "Photos", viewed them, hit menu and selected Share, then went to Set As, but Lock Screen wasn't an...

    2.1 Leak stock keyboard...

    I've noticed a couple of bugs in the stock keyboard for the 2.1 leak: In portrait mode, if you overshoot the space bar, and press underneath it, it causes the keyboard to close. And in landscape mode, if you press the grey area to the right of the "L" key, it does the same. Now that I...

    HTC Clock Widget Sun/Moon problem?

    I'm on the 2.1 leak, so not sure if it's just this version or if 1.5 does it too, but I noticed the other night that, at 8:15PM it was still showing a sun on the weather/clock widget. Yesterday morning, at 8:15am, it was showing a moon. It's 7:20am right now and displaying the moon. I'm not...

    Keyboard Accuracy?

    Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that they're message typing skills have gone down with 2.1? I seem to get way more typos. I seem to have noticed that the touchscreen accuracy has reduced with this build, so I think that's part of it, but I'm also wondering if the typing prediction...

    2.1 Auto Starting Apps...

    So, I loaded ATK onto 2.1 which tells me that more apps are running than the built in proc manager does. So I killed everything except clock. Put the phone to sleep, and came back an hour later to find that Clock, Voice Dialer, MP3 Store, Settings, Shopper, Google Voice, Mail, Messages...

    2.1 Text Problems to Blackberry?

    So I have 2.1 loaded on my Eris, and, while I haven't texted a lot, maybe 20-30 times total, I'm starting to see a trend. It seems that if I text someone who has a Blackberry, about 95% of my texts result in the message fail dialog, but they actually went through. Texts to other Erii or...

    2.1 Keyboard Frustration...

    I had hoped that 2.1 would solve this, but alas, no. I would like to find the engineer who designed the stock qwerty keyboard on the Eris, and beat him with a bag of droids! Who in their right mind puts a button next to the space bar, that causes all typing to cease and brings up a settings...

    Tetrads.apk?

    I loaded up Astro and backed up all my apps (I thought), then upgraded to 2.1. Now when I go to put all my apps back, I'm missing one. Does someone happen to have a copy of Tetrads (the tetris clone) they can pm or email me? Also, anyone know of a way, besides from an Android phone, to...

    Download History?

    Is there any way to get a history of what I've downloaded in the past? When I had a Droid, I had downloaded a few apps, but now with my Eris (configured to the same gmail account), I'd like to see what I had previously downloaded on the Droid. Thanks, Doc

    Hardware Version?

    I'm on my second Eris, this time around I notice that the trackball seems to be more gritty, and much more responsive. I'm not sure about the first one, but this one is listed as "Hardware Version 2" (Settings -> About -> Hardware Version). I'm curious if anyone has a hardware version greater...

    Keyboard not popping up...

    My daughter and I both got Eris' [Erii?] with Verizon's 2 for 1. I noticed while loading some stuff to hers last night though that when you type on the keyboard, you don't get the letters popping up (i.e. on mine, when I hit a letter on the keyboard, it pops up a bubble showing what letter I...

    New Eris Owner Questions

    Hello all. I just bought the Eris yesterday. I previously had a Droid, but really didn't like the size, weight, and it crashed like crazy, hoping for a better experience with the Eris. I have a few questions though, maybe it's the difference between the 2.0 and the 1.5 Android OS', but: 1...
