    Help Display randomly refuses to turn on

    So, sometimes (most notably when I need it, of course), it seems that my display fails. I'll be on a call, or have just replied to a message, and the display won't turn on. I'll feel the vibration like I'm getting a text, and see the blinking lights, and hear the noise if it's not just on...

    Charms

    Am I the only one who misses being able to have charms? Seriously. I know it's dumb and dinky but it was fun for me.

    Weather widget that doesn't vamp the battery

    Just what the title says: I've been using the stock Accuweather widget, and I'm wondering if it may or may not have a large effect on my battery life. Any recommendations for weather widgets that don't add much drain? I just like to know what the temperature is (current, daily low/high) and...

    What has eight legs and is awesome?

    Tarantulas. Anyone else keep 'em? Few neat facts: All tarantulas are indeed venomous to some degree. What's the difference between venom and poison? Venom is introduced directly into the bloodstream, as with a sting or a bite. Poison is ingested, as in chemicals or certain plants. There has...

    Overly sensitive auto-rotate?

    I've noticed that the auto-rotate is VERY touchy - it doesn't take much to trigger it, and I end up in landscape mode even when I really don't want to be. Any tips for this? Is there a fix, or do I just have to turn it off? :confused:

    Noticed this today, when making some calls... Poor call quality, staticy, no matter where I am or who I'm talking to. Reprogramming didn't help. Any ideas/tips?

    2150mAH Extended battery (with pics!)

    Okay, got this bad boy a few minutes ago, and thought I'd share some pics. Obviously I can't say anything for the life yet, but the form - wow! Remember how the 1st Inc's extended battery was chunky and bulged in the middle of the phone? This has a smooth, streamlined look. Much less bulgy...

    Return my Thunderbolt?

    Now don't get me wrong: I'm neither a fangirl or a hater, but here's my issue: I got my hands on the Thunderbolt. Call it an impulse upgrade. I do love its speed and (with the extended battery) the battery life. However, the battery and its size make it heavy as hell, and I'm starting to get...

    Help Callers tell me I'm REALLY LOUD

    This is a new one for me: got my Tbolt today... and every person I've talked to on the phone says I'm REALLY loud, though I talk at normal volume, and even lowering my voice doesn't help. Background noise, big or small, doesn't seem to make a difference. Any ideas?

    Took the plunge...

    So after waiting since October after first hearing about the Tbolt... I decided NOT to get it and wait for maybe the Inc 2... but a VZW rep talked me into the Tbolt anyhow today... so.... I came home with it, drooling over it. Gotta say, I think I made the right choice. I was coming from an HTC...

    Root Too stupid to root?

    I'm wondering if maybe I should root my phone, but it seems like a lot of technical stuff that maybe I'm not quite advanced enough to get. Any helpful tips, guides, etc, for morons like me?
