    Finally! Something Close To Words With Friends

    Wordfeud! Don't even know how long it's been around. But Words With Friends is the only app I even use on my IPod Touch since I got my Eris. Was soooooo mad when I couldn't find it on Android. I found Wordfeud Friday and have been playing ever since! That game got me hooked!

    No Service/Signal At All!?!

    For the past two days, I've had no service. I was using xtrROM4 when it first started. So I went back to EvilEris and it worked for a little while, then yesterday stopped working again. So I re-flashed xtrROM4 and it worked all night and this morning. Now it's gone again. Can't make a call...

    Would I Be Able To Get A New Phone?

    Or would I just be wasting my time? I'm not interested in a Refurb, I've had quite a few bad experiences with them... And I got the V3 Leak (but I'm not just trying to get the OTA) But I can't really do anything while my phone is charging. It keeps automatically sliding to the page all the...

    An 'I Got The Update' Only Thread

    Just wondering if we could just make one single thread for folks that actually got the OTA? If you got it, just say you did, and what you had before (1.5, 2.1 leak v1, 2, or 3), and where you live. I know some folks have said they got it, but it's mixed in with several other threads. Thanks.

    Solved My Lag

    First, don't bash, but I looked through some of the lag threads and didn't see this "and I coulda missed it, which if I did, I know somebody gonna post a link." But like I said ealier today, for some reason my phone started lagging real bad today, for the first time. After a while I said screw...

    Another Feature, I knew Not Of, Again.

    It's illegal to drive on base while talking on a phone, without a hands free device. I have one bluetooth, but 4 different vehicles, so I NEVER remember which one I leave it in. So I'm driving one day, playing music from my Eris through the car stereo with the adapter cord thing (sorry too...

    A Cool Feature I Didn't Know

    Was that if your phone is ringing at a bad time, like say you're in a meeting and forgot to put it on vibrate, if you place it face down, it will go silent. It works, yay!!! Now the question is, does anyone know how to turn that off? I searched and didn't see it. My phone is ALWAYS on...

    Think I'm Gonna Leave My Wife..

    On the 23rd of this month, 'leave her' standing right there in the Verizon Store that is, looking for a ride home. She'll be eligible for an upgrade. I told her to either get an Eris, a Droid, or wait for the Incredible. But she keeps insisting on getting a Blackberry!!??!!?! :mad: I just...

    I'mma Break This Phone!

    If I get one more notification sitting at the top saying I got an upgrade. Then when I look, it's for one (or several) of my downloaded apps! Whoever's update apps need to be mindful of us folks that are patiently waiting on this dang OTA! That's like 5 times in 3 days I've been let down...

    Any Response From Verizon/HTC About 2.1?

    I've done a quick search (best I can do at work) to see if Verizon or HTC had any comments on the leakage, but found nothing. Anyone else heard/read anything from them regarding the leak? The more they keep quiet, the more I'm thinking they are just really kicking back waiting to see what the...

    An Office War Has Started Eris Vs IPhone!

    I work with about 50 others in my clinic. About 5 of them had IPhones before I got my Eris. Then 2 more got Iphones. Now, at least 4 or 5 times a day they're in here checking out my Eris. Have to remember to bring my charger in since they mess with it so much my battery is dead by lunch...

    Signal Boosters

    Anyone ever use any? Did they work? I'm thinking of getting one for the car actually. Also, I know they sell those things you put on your battery of your phone that supposedly increases your signal, but I've yet to find a good review of those.

    Brand New Eris Owner

    Hello all. Just got my phone the other night, and have been messing with it since I got it. I've been reading posts here since last week, so a lot of the questions I 'would've' asked were already answered. Thanks! The only real issues I'm having is the signal strength, but that's not the...
