    Root Evo camera without root?

    My dinc is rooted and I have the Evo Camera app installed. My buddy who also has a dinc saw the shutter on screen feature and was wondering if he could install on his dinc. His dinc is not rooted. I have a apk file. Can I install the Evo camera over the stock camera in a non-rooted phone? Thanks!

    Engadget Article - "Droid Incredible saves browser screenshots to internal memory"

    This folder includes screen shots that are used for Internet Browser bookmarks. It also includes screen shots of web pages that I did not choose to bookmark.

    Outside/daylight screen performance?

    I asked this is another thread but it went unanswered. The Engadget review said it was pretty much unusable when sunny outside. Many of the reviews mention the poor performance of screen outside. I really do not have issue with this if this is only referring to direct sunlight. I can always...

    I was having major issues with battery drain on 2.1 (second leak) and after reading some threads here I removed the HTC battery widget. This appears to have solved the problem.
