    Help Quick question: HTC 2.3 RUU & Network Lock

    Sorry, I'm sure this is here somewhere, and about a zillion other places, but I've just spent half an hour looking at serach results and am nowhere nearer an answer... My contract is up in a couple of months. I'm currently on a rooted stock Froyo ROM, but am thinking about just flashing the...

    Password managers or not?

    I have an excel spreadsheet that I use for my passwords. I keep a copy on my phone, and they are hints rather than the passwords themselves. I've been tempted to use one of the password managars from the marketplace, but have always been a bit concerned that I'm giving the dev the opportunity...

    Root SO I just installed GingerVillain...

    WiFi Hotspot using WiFi not Mobile Connection???

    OK, bear with me. My son (well, it's mine, but I let him use it...) has a Nintendo DS, which can only use WEP security for the WiFi connection. I don't want to leave my Router on WEP - it's just not secure enough. I suddenly thought yesterday, that I could use the phone to setup a temporary...
