    For Sale: Droid with 2 MultiMedia Docks free

    Not sure if we are allowed to post for sale items here. If not, I apologize and please move it. But I cancelled my Verizon service today and they wouldn't extend the worry-free guarantee. So I'm left with a Droid that I purchased on 11/6 (launch day). It's in perfect condition. Never...

    Did Verizon extend the return period for the Droid?

    I thought I read somewhere that Verizon was extending the return period on the Droid. Is this true? I bought the Droid on launch day and am curious if I can still return it. It was new activation.

    How can the battery be this bad??

    I'm basicaly burning through 10% an hour. I've studied Spare Parts. I've conditioned my battery. This is ridiculous.

    "Android system" and partial wake usage - battery problems

    There are a bunch of threads out there talking about battery usage and how to figure out what's draining your battery. Almost all of them say to go get Spare Parts app from the market and check you "partial wake usage". I did that and 95% of my partial wake usage is from "Android System"...

    Sync icon won't go away

    Since this afternoon, the sync icon (Arrows that point to each other and form a circle) won't go away. I'm not sure if it's doing anything. I even tried turning sync off altogether but it won't go away. Tried shutting down twice. Anyone have any ideas?

    Note to Self or direct email shortcut?

    I'm looking for an app that I can create a shortcut on the home screen and it will automatically email a specific email address. I know there are things that are close to this (add contact to home screen) but then you have to click again to send an email, etc. I'm looking for the...

    Google Voice quality vs Verizon

    I've been playing around with google voice vs verizon cell. Has anyone done any controlled tests on the voice quality of Google Voice vs. just using the native Verizon voice? When you initiate a call via Google Voice does it use your voice minutes or is it 100% over the data network?

    Any text expander / replacement apps?

    On the Blackberry, they have autotext that allows you to expand text. You can customize it so for example "mtg" will expand to "meeting". There is also some macro code that replaces your phone number, etc. Is there any app that does text replacement / expansion on the Droid?
