    Root Android OS ver on warranty replacements?

    <wrong forum> oops Anybody know what version of Android OS is being shipped with warranty replacements? Someone said they were sending units with 2.1 but I wanted to check here to see if any of you had your EVO replaced and if so what version was it?

    Picked my EVO up at Radio Shack as a walk-in

    Well I waited in front of the store (I was the first one there and got there at 4am) and I have to say it was well worth the wait. As soon as I powered it up it did an OTA update to correct the storage card issue. I have loaded about 20 apps and I still have 360 MB free internal storage. No lag...

    Fresh 2.1d Android Launcher instead of HTC Sense ... anyone else having this issue

    I changed from the HTC sense to the Android Launcher on Fresh 2.1d and I noticed that intermittently I cant swipe through the screens or click on the icons. It takes a few minutes before I am able to. Has anyone else had this problem? If I switch home screens back to HTC Sense I have no problems...

    Is the camera the same with all 2.1 ROMS

    I noticed that on 2.1 compared to 1.5 the camera menu options only show in landscape meaning if you hit the menu to change the settings for taking photos while in portrait you have to rotate the phone to view the text correctly. Is this a bug and is there a fix for it or is this the way...

    Best theme app

    So I am too chicken to take the plunge to flash to the leaked 2.1. Since I am tired of the way my hero looks now what is the best app to customize as far as the theme goes? I heard aHome was good but I heard a lot of problems come with it. Any suggestions?

    Flash to 2.1 or wait for Sprint to update it?

    how hard is it to flash? All the places where everyone says to go are confusing as heck. Is there one forum that explains everything from start to finish and where can I get the leaked 2.1 ROM to do it myself? I bricked my last Hero trying to follow a thread on XDA forums a month ago. UGH...

    Help In the end its all about the typing

    I now have the BB 9630. Its all about the keyboard typing not to mention I am waiting on the Nexus One. The virtual keyboard is wider and can accommodate my fat fingers better. On another note.... Sprint just said they are shipping new Hero's with Android 2.1. The talk around the CTIA...

    Just got the Moment after having the Hero..woot!

    Wow I really like this phone a whole lot better with the exception of one thing....the default calendar theme sucks. With regards to the apps out there that allow you to theme, which ones do not drain the battery if any? I am using this for work so I am trying to get something that looks...

    Help Moment VK and Screen issues

    Does the virtual keyboard on the Moment have bigger keys than the HTC Hero? I ask this because looking at the display for the moment it appears to be wider than that of the Hero. Also, does the screen shut off when not in use? I have heard people say this as well as their face hits stuff on the...

    Help Job is requiring a Samsung Moment

    Hey all I am currently using a Sprint HTC Hero though my job wants me to switch to the Moment. How do you all like it and what are some cons to this phone? I love my hero but the virtual keyboard in portrait mode, in my opinion, is to hard to type on with my big fingers...tell me what you all...

    Zagg Shield

    Does anyone use the Zagg full body shield and if so what do you think about it? I have the neoprene case with mine and the Zagg screen protector though I heard these cases cause dust to collect through the volume rocker and thus getting under the screen.

    What SMS app does not use the Stock SMS app as a backend

    I know there was a bug with the stock SMS app which actually drained the battery when not in use, though, I was wondering if some users are still having the same issue after having the maintenance release applied to their device. Is there an alternate app to use? I read that handcent uses the...

    Need to return 2 week old "rooted" phone back to Best Buy

    Seriously I need opinions

    All things aside I love the Android operating system. What I have a major issue with is the virtual keyboard. Aside from the physical keyboard on the Moment and the HTC sense on the hero what would be the benefiting factors (if any) to stay with the Hero. I have had mine a total of 7 hours and I...
