    Help Changing email address associated with phone

    Ok, I want to change the email address the phone is set up to. But I have a niggling suspicion doing so requires a factory reset. First things first, please tell me if that's wrong and I'll be happy. If however I'm right, What's the best way to go about saving everything? If I download a backup...

    Cosmic Crush for Android?

    Are there any games like 'Cosmic Crush' for android? Could be a fun little time waster, and should work well with tilt controls.

    App to stop clockwise rotation

    The title about sums it up. I'm on Froyo, and would really like an app to stop the damn screen rotating clockwise to the landscape orientation. If there's an option to do it I haven't found it, and if there isn't I may have to find the nearest google employee and yell at him till he fixes it. :p...

    Customisable Keyboard App

    I'm looking for a keyboard app that will allow me to assign whatever symbols I like to the long-press function of keys. I'm fed up with larking around in menus finding characters I use often. Is there something that fits the bill?

    App to change the size of widgets

    Does anyone know of a way of doing this? I know ADW launcher allows you to select the size occupied by a widget when you add one, but I'm using Launcherpro. Is there an application that allows you to do so?

    Wallpaper Compression

    I have a perfectly nice looking wallpaper set up for my phone. However when I set it as a background, the smooth gradients get covered in hideous banding. Is this a product of software on the phone compressing the image, and if so, how the hell do I get around it? It's disgusting!

    Root Looking for a simple and failsafe method

    I'm considering rooting, I'd like the extra degree of freedom it offers. However I tend towards being overly cautious, so I'm only really interested if there is a truly failsafe method out there. I'm not keen on the idea of ruining my new phone. What I'm looking for is a (preferably simple)...

    Folderorganiser doesn't list handcent

    It used to, but now when I attempt to add a widget or shortcut to the homescreen, I don't get handcent in the list, nor can I find it if I open folderorganiser itself. Handcent is still installed, so I'm unsure why it isn't listed in the application?

    Best Sense replacement widgets

    Looking for advice on these both for personal use (Just downloaded LauncherPro and really miss some sense features), and to add to the encyclopaedia. So, any advice on good Sense replacement widgets are appreciated. I found Android Agenda Widget, which does a very nice job of displaying...

    Reduce icon size

    I don't suppose there is a way to reduce the amount of space around the icons for apps/folders? When you remove the text under the images you could easily fit an extra row of icons on a homescreen by getting rid of some of the blank space.

    MMS on Orange Contract

    Since lots of people here are on Orange it seems an appropriate place to ask. Do Orange charge separately for MMS even if you are on an unlimited texts contract? I get the impression they do, which is really very irritating. I don't suppose there's any way around it by ringing up and negotiating?

    Help Cannot add custom wallpaper

    Odd issue I've found - I can't add a custom wallpaper. It tells me it's changed it, but nothing actually happens. I can change between HTC wallpapers just fine. I've tried, jpeg, PNG, various different resolutions (Including screen resolution and the wallpaper resolution of 960x800)...I'm...

    Points thrown up by 'Spare Parts'

    Firstly, 'Dialer' has logged a large amount of network use. I'm assuming this is because phone calls are included under dialer rather than as a separate item? Also, handcent SMS has used over 10 hours of partial wake in probably...24 hours? Is that normal for said application? I'm assuming it...

    Help Contact Card

    Probably an obvious way of doing this, but I can't for the life of me find a way to edit/delete my contact card on the phone. Neither clicking or long pressing on it yields an edit button. Is it buried in a menu somewhere?

    Secondary keys on keyboard

    Is there any way to reduce the time you have to hold a key down for it to go to its secondary function? It's very irritating having to wait as long as you do.

    Looking for: To do list, app dock

    I'd like some help locating a couple of apps - I can't seem to find any I get along with. Firstly, I'd like a to do list. A plain, simple to do list, with no complex features - All I want to do is type in a quick note and hit a save button. I don't need dates, times, reminders, alarms, anything...
