    Root Should I switch to S-on for day to day use?

    Ok So I am running 2.2 (RUU) and I was wondering 1. Should I switch S to ON - is there some issue (besides that VZW may notice on a return) to NOT keep S-off? Does it create a security hole? 2. If I am S-on can I still do Nandroid backups and restores/flash new ROMS (I think no)

    Ok so I am a newbie at the whole rooting thing, although not a complete moron in general. I rooted using the SD-Card method (is there another name for this) and sort of stopped following root developments (cause I got Wifi teather which was all I really needed). So now I see there is a new...

    Album Art download

    Is there anyway to add album art to songs on the Inc without use of a 3rd party program? Id like to use the internal phone storage for my mp3s BUT so far the only way I have found to add album art is with 3rd part apps that DO NOT "see" the internal storage.

    Is there any viable uses of the Onboard 6G of storage at this time

    So its great that the Inc comes with 6G of onboard memory- but I cant figure out how to utilize it for anything since apps cant see it. Anyone have any creative workarounds or legitimate uses?

    Ex-Eris User: 2 annoying little things on otherwise perfect phone

    Ok I had an Eris with 2.1 and it was perfect EXCEPT that the phone app sucked and it was a bit slow, so the Incredible is perfect (app seems same but I guess snapdragon killed the lag) EXCEPT I wish I could (natively) change the lockscreen wallpaper independent of the home screen wall paper and...

    Battery - new or re-tread

    I know no one probably knows but do you think the Inc will get its "own" proprietary battery or do you think HTC will use a battery compatible with an existing model (like a HD2 or Eris etc...)

    When

    Is there any hard information on when the Incredible will be released - all I am seeing is the speculation that it will be the same date as the Nexus 1 - anyone got anything more definitive?

    Anyway to change the [HORRIBLE] default dialer

    The thing BLOWS - it is somewhat better for placing calls under 2.1 (i.e. lags less) but I have this issue where the phone intermittedly locks up when recieving calls.....usually happens when multi-tasking; the phone stops and begins to launch dialer but it seems to get all confused and either...

    Google Voice Calling broken under 2.1

    Is it just me but I can no longer call out using GV - I set it - but it doesn't seem to actually work; the receiving party sees the call as coming from my regular cell # anyone else?

    Crazy home Screen Behavior when plugged in

    I just discovered this issue - it may be only relevant to 2.1 since I upgraded (or to something else entirely) but when my Eris is plugged in and I use it the Home Screen seems to act crazy - well not that crazy - just that with motion the Homes Screens roll "left( that is to the left most...

    Default Twitter App

    Anyone know if you can (and if so, how) you can change the 'default' Twitter app: Right now I am using the Sense Widget but prefer the Twitteroid APP - but in the widget if you press on a tweet - it opens the Peep APP - which sucks. Can this be changed. I tried the Twitteroid Widget itself...

    HTC & VZW Deserve High Praise

    Sometimes lost amongst all the discussions, complains and improvements wished for - is how IMPRESSIVE both Verizon and Htc have been handling the Eris phone. As anyone who has bought phone/consumer electronics that came with such early praise and promise which turned out to be utter crap (can...

    HOW? do you play video with the screen off - or with player in background

    I love my Eris BUT it is inferior in one critical area (too me) - I like to use my player t"watch" VIDEO podcasts or tivo'd news shows. Much of the time, I do not need to actually see the video (just want to hear it). So is their a video app that will let me play the video and turn the screen...
