    Help Problem with latest update

    For some reason I can't seem to install the recent maintenance update. I've been notified three times, but each time I try to install it either hangs at the rebooting screen (before shutdown, not during) or says your phone will reboot, but doesn't and the screen just goes away. My Kernel...

    Root How bad of an idea was this (removing bloatware)?

    I just rooted yesterday and haven't really started playing around with too much stuff other than removing bloatware. While poking around, I found the ability to uninstall apps using Titanium Backup, including the bloatware (Skype, Amazon MP3 and CityID), so that's exactly what I did instead of...

    Froyo really ruined Android for me

    Bit of a rant, but I have completely lost confidence in this phone since getting 2.2. There have been little nuisance things like emails getting deleted and horrid battery life when on WiFi, but there have been two recent issues that have me questioning everything about the Android OS (2.2...

    Help Why does wifi kill my battery now?

    Ever since getting froyo, WiFi demolished my battery. Total opposite of 2.1. If I leave WiFi off I will get at least 1.5 days of battery life with moderate use, but with WiFi on and connected I am lucky to get 12 hours even with very light use. Anyone else seeing this?

    Accessories SGP Shield

    Anyone try this yet? I have a silicon case, but it's a lint magnet, makes a very sleek phone kinda bulky and difficult to pocket. I was thinking of getting one of the full body skins and covering only the bezel and screen - I don't really worry about the back since I would assume it's pretty...

    Accessories Seller Warning: CheapDroids.com

    Just a heads-up to everyone to avoid this store like they included the plague with each order. They lie, call you a liar when you prove they are lying, do not fulfill orders and change availabilty dates on their (crappy) site. On top of that, they charge a 5% bank fee when you've finally had...

    Power Profiles

    Is there a way to set different behaviors based on whether the phone is plugged in? For example, I want my screen to stay on when I have it plugged in in my car. Is that possible?

    Help Application switcher

    Is there a program for the incredible that will let you switch between active apps? For example if I wanted to paste something on an email from the web, I'd like to switch between the browser and the email without having to go back to the home screen and launch the apps.

    Gmail Issues?

    For some reason my Gmail isn't getting pushed to my phone anymore - it's acting like it's polling or set to manual refresh. I didn't change any settings that I remember. The only thing that changed was an update to the Quick Settings app. Anyone else having problems?

    Speaking of Visual Voicemail...

    Saw the other thread, but didn't want to hijack with a different question. Is the voicemail application inside of the messages application actually Verizon's Visual Voicemail? I saw on the market that there was an app for VVM, nd the interface looks different. I just want to make sure I'm...

    Backup Question

    Is there a program, native or download, that will back up the phone, settings, options, apps, etc.? For people familiar with BlackBerry, I am looking for something like Desktop Manager.

    Can you set up rules in the native POP mail application (e.g. don't accept email with ___ in the subject line)?

    Quick way to change sound profile?

    Is there a way to change the sound profile from, say, normal to silent without having to go through the menus? In other words, for former Storm users, the way we could click on the speaker to quickly choose profiles.

    Opinions on initial charge

    I'm sitting here waiting for that beautiful sound of the FedEx truck to drive down my street to deliver me my Incredible! I just wanted some advice from anyone willing to share if you think the initial charge with the phone off is necessary? I don't know how I'm going to scratch that itch of...

    Dock & Car Mount Options

    This could end up being a problem for manufacturers. I think there was a bit of shortsightedness by the designers or lack of communication between the product designers and the software designers. It looks like menus, main screens, car app and other apps don't work in landscape, but the charging...
