    Best slider?

    Looking for a new phone. I'm not opposed to eBay or Craigslist. The most important thing is a good keyboard.

    Root Is there a way to update MIUI?

    Ok, ROM manager helpfully informed me there is an update available to MIUI. Great! Now, I have it downloaded, but when I tell ROM manager to reboot into recovery, it just reboots. Right back into the current build of MIUI that's on my phone. So, what am I missing? Should I be doing something...

    Help Miui - duplicate icons?

    OK. I seem to be having some duplication of icons. In the manage application list, there's only one copy of an app, but I have 2 icons on my phone?

    Root More questions...

    *sigh* I promise I'm not really an idiot! 1. I've re-installed something that's causing me random reboots again, so I need to get into recovery, but now I can't remember how! I have ROM Manager and Droid 2 Bootstrapper and am on Miui. I tried to boot stock recovery, but somehow that didn't...

    Root I promise I'm not trying to be dense...

    But, my X was rooted when it was Froyo. Verizon pushed Gingerbread. (I don't really remember when. I just remember there wasn't an option for me to decline it.) Of course, TiBU and Wireless Tether do not work now. I know I have lost superuser/root. (I had only rooted to WiFi tether once a week.)...

I know I can get a refurb'ed NC (for $150) and root/CM7 it. (I have a rooted Droid X. I know the basics.) Would the NC be the...

    Help choose a tablet

    I am looking at tablets for my three children. I have a very specific need. They will need flash for a learning website that we use. I think 7in should be big enough. They need wi-fi of course. I'm hoping to find a relatively inexpensive model since I would need three. I saw that Toys R Us has a...

    Droid X now for $120 or wait for th Fall phones...

    VZW is tempting me. They sent me an email with an extra $50 off of smartphones plus allowing me to get my $30 NE2 now instead of waiting until Oct. So....will the Samsung Fascinate be significantly better than the X? Will there be something releasing in early fall that will trump them both? Any...

    Hi!

    The little green robot at the top asked me to come say "hi", so I did! My name is Amy. I'm new to Android, but I used to use a Palm Treo during nursing school. I'm a nurse now and haven't used a smartphone since shortly after graduating RN school. They've changed a lot in the last 4 years...
