    Fresh2.0d = 6 hours of battery life?

    I have terrible battery life with the 2.0d ROM. I don't really know why either as when I look at the battery usage, everything is pretty low except for the Cell Standby. On that note, has anyone else experienced terrible signal? Cause, I am. :(

    Anyway to change the CDMA version to GSM?

    I know this is a rather odd question, but, I know that on the damageless rom, it defaults to locate for GSM Radio Towers.

    Coverage problems in my area

    I seem to have a small issue. My problem is that when I am inside my house, I pray to get a signal. If I go 50 yards out, and go in a circle, I get full bars. Step a couple feet in, signal drops back down. Now, I could buy an Airave, but I don't feel like paying some enormous fees and stuff to...

    Sprint says my warranty is void by installing third party software

    I am sorta shocked, only for the fact that he freakd out that I had installed a new custom boot screen and told him that rooting doesn't neccessarily remove anything sprint puts on the phone. I guess more shocked that he knew what it was. Regardless, if I own the phone, I am going to do what...
