    Help Phone Dead?

    So my phone was down to 25% last night and before I went to sleep I plugged it into the charger like I normally do. Wake up this morning to find the phone completely off and unable to even turn on after holding the power button. :confused: I get to work and try plugging it into the charger I...

    Help Battery Sleep Drain

    I charged my phone to 100% and unplugged it overnight. In 7 1/2 hours the battery dropped to 72% so that's like 3-4% an hour. I'm not rooted and it's only connected to wi-fi with no apps running. Is this what other people are experiencing with a stock GN? My Eris never drained this fast just...

    Help Touchscreen unlock problems?

    That was weird. I pressed the power/wake button and when I tried to unlock the phone the screen wouldn't register my touch. I left it alone for a few minutes and tried it again and it worked. I'm just running stock ICS. Has anyone else experienced this before?

    Eris roaming

    Going to Canada for a few days and I called Verizon to see what their data roaming charges were ($0.002/kb). It didn't sound too bad at first and I don't think that I'm a heavy data user, but if I multiplied that by my usage this month, it would be well over $500 :eek:. I was thinking of just...

    New HTC Widgets

    Check out these new HTC widgets on the market. Looks like it only works for phones with Sense UI (Hero and Eris). Gonna try them out now. HTC debuts widgets for Sense-equipped Android phones -- Engadget

    texting character count

    I've only seen this mentioned once or twice but one thing that annoys me with the update is the character number that's displayed when typing a text. Why did they have to put a black box counter right in the messaging window when typing in portrait mode? After creating a message, that box covers...

    Manual Update

    Rather than waiting for an OTA update, it looks like you can manually update the phone through your PC.....but the catch is it factory resets your phone once it's done: Manual Update Instructions from your PC: DROID Eris by HTC ....I think I'm patient enough to wait it out ;)

    Car Mount

    I'm thinking of getting a car mount and I'd rather mount it to the air vent than the windshield. Maybe something like this but I dunno. Amazon.com: Amzer Universal Swiveling Air Vent Mount (Black): Cell Phones & Service What types of car mounts does everyone else use?

    Amount of rings???

    Has anyone been able to adjust the amount of rings on their phone? My phone rings about 6 times before it goes to voicemail but my girlfriend's phone rings only 4 times. I brought both numbers over from T-Mobile where they each rang about 4 times but now w/Verizon mine went up to 6. Tried...

    Eris BOGO

    Looks like there's a Verizon BOGO offer for this weekend only. Buy either a Droid or Eris and get an Eris free. I'll probably stop by and get them to credit me back since I bought two Erises (Erisi??) only 2 weeks ago. (Updated) Verizon Buy One Get One for the Droid (Eris) Confirmed | Android...

    How do you pronounce Eris?

    Just wondering how people pronounce Eris. I prefer to say it as "Air-ess" but I've heard "Ear-ess" before too. I was also thinking about where that name came from and I guess they used the name HTC "Desire" and took the last four letters and spelled it backwards. As you can probably tell I've...

    Sleep when plugged in?

    Yesterday I exchanged my Eris for a new one because the screen brightness on my old one was too dim. Now I notice that when I plug in the phone to charge, the phone stays awake. On my first phone it would just go to sleep when charging so my awake time was usually around 15-20%. When I took my...

    Screen brightness

    So I picked up an Eris for myself and my one for my gf last week and when I look at each phone side by side, mine seems just a tad dimmer than hers. It's like a TV setting where mine is set to "Warm" and hers is "Cool" which makes the whites and text pop just a little bit more. I messed around...
