    Is rooting possible, without using the USB port? My phone is able to charge, but none of my computers are able to recognize the connection anymore (even trying different cables).

    Missing Keyboard Character?

    Okay... maybe it just isn't there, but I am trying to locate the backslash character ( \ ) on the Eris keyboard. I can easily see the forwardslash character ( / )... but the backslash is what I need to setup my Exchange account on the phone. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks

    Greetings folks... Is there a way to hide my phone number when calling out? I came over from BlackBerry, where there is simply an option to "hide" my phone number on outgoing calls... but I can't seem to do this with my Eris. Someone once suggested that I prefix my contacts with *69... but...
