So far so good with the phone...LOVE the speed and the overwhelming amount of things one can do on the Android environment...I actually don't know where to start haha.
Anyways the three things that have been bugging in the last few days I've been using this device.
First and foremost is the email reader. I've got a gmail account which I created a few days before getting the phone so I could transfer the contacts and calendar from my old Storm. I also have 3 other emails addresses which I use on a day to day basis...2 Live accounts and 1 Comcast.
1. Now on the two BB's I had in the past it gave me the option to either delete on handheld or to delete on both handheld and in mailbox. I set up the accounts on the X and it receives the emails but when I delete it doesn't delete it from the mailbox nor is there an option in the settings part on the phone. Also when I read messages it doesn't show up as read in the mailbox. Is there an option some where on the phone that I'm missing. A coworker of mine has the Incredible and his email reader has that option and does the read/delete function I'm looking for. Also a friend with a regular Droid says when he deletes from the phone its deleted in the mailbox.
2. The next thing that bugs me is gmail. Why does it thread email messages? How does one go about turning that threading option off? If I can get this to turn off I'll migrate my saved emails and folders from my Live accounts and shut those down completely.
2.a. Talking about migrating emails...has anyone used the tool within gmail to migrate saved emails and folders from hotmail/live/yahoo accounts into gmail? How did it work for you?
3. Does the facebook app lack notifications? I know the X has the social networking app which will combine twitter and facebook (and actually downloads more contact info to my contacts which I think is cool) but it lacks on local app and redirects you to the site when you want to view more. So I download the facebook app from the market and its no better on the notifications (but gives me a local app like my old BB's did).
Thanks in advance for any help possible.
