    Help Fascinate refugee with a question

    I just got my shiny new Charge in the mail about 10 minutes before I had to leave for work so it's charging now so it'll have a full battery when I get home. My question is; since my Fascinate is rooted and needs to be flashed back to stock prior to sending it back to VZW, do I need to do the...

    Root CWM 3.X Backup Help

    I just went from CWM 2.5 to 3.X in order to install the Com Rom. After installing CWM via Odin followed by a modified stock kernel to allow for permanent recovery I tried to do a Nandroid backup in the new recovery before wiping and flashing another Rom. I keep getting an error message that it...

    Root Wanna update to latest Com Rom...

    I'm on stock Froyo EB01 (yeah, I know its way outdated) and never upgraded because the EB01 update finally allowed me to have accurate and snappy GPS which is something that really irritated me about this phone when I first got it... and I don't wanna lose that. I'm starting to have a few...

    Help Changing Brightness (not set to auto)

    Every once in a while I will notice significant decrease in battery life and when I go to about phone it's all coming from display. So I go to Settings and Brightness and it's cranked up to 75 or 80%. I always keep it around 25 to 30% with auto brightness unchecked. Why would my brightness...

    Help Handcent/Swype "skipping" issue

    Okay, this is beginning to happen more and more often and its REALLY irritating. If I receive a text from someone and I reply to it via the Handcent popup, the first word I try to Swype will put a space between the first and second letter. For example, if I'm trying to type the word "the" it...

    Root Froyo Screen Capture

    So yesterday I was awkwardly holding my phone along with some other things and almost dropped it. When I caught it the screen was still on and I heard the camera shutter sound. When I looked at the screen it said "screen capture successful" or something like that but I can't find a screen shot...

    Root Microbes Live Wallpaper question

    Okay, I love the Microbes LWP and it looks quite nifty on my Fascinate... initially. After its been running for a while and I've opened and closed several apps and gone about my day, the smokey, swirling background begins looking rather choppy, though the microbes' movement remains smooth as...

    Root Contact Pictures with DL30... etc.

    To start with, I'm running stock DL30 coming from DJ05... non-essential stock apps frozen with Titanium, running LP+ with Touchwiz still active in background. I've linked all my contacts to their respective Facebook profiles and I see the correct contact pictures in my phone book, but when I...

    Root Wanting to upgrade from D101 to DJ05... ?

    I am an Eris refugee and it seems I jumped from one neglected device to another. I rooted, de-binged and de-bloated (well, de-bloated so far as to simply freeze all the worthless stock crap) my Fascinate and have been pretty happy with two small exceptions: occasional lag and lack of a GPS that...

    Root R.I.P. my poor, dead Eris...

    So I've had my Eris literally since the day it came out. After several months of trolling and research I decided to root the device. After several months of joyous overclocking at 786 my phone starts misbehaving... random resets, freezes, etc. So I do a nandrestore and back the OC down to 710...

    Root Replacement Eris on the way...

    So my wife's Eris has been experiencing the auto-scrolling to the left bug for about the last week or so while the phone is plugged in. She called Verizon and they're sending her a refurb (I assume) which will be here next week. I've got her phone rooted with xtrSENSE 4.1 and I'm wondering if...

    Strange auto-scrolling with alarm

    My wife has been having a very strange problem with her Eris lately. She uses her phone as her alarm and when it goes off in the morning and she picks it up to snooze or dismiss the options simply won't be on the screen, it will be her default home screen. The alarm is still going off though...

    Root Weird random resets...

    So I've been running xtrSENSE4.2 since it came out and previous versions of xtrSENSE previous to that. I've been rooted for 3 months or so and consistently overclocked at 768 using SetCPU. Yesterday I take my phone out of my pocket and I can't get it to wake up... no amount of button pressing...

    Root xtrSense to xtrROM

    I'm currently running xtrsense but am curious about xtrrom and some of the extra features that it has (ie. live wallpapers). I'm currently running a2sd and cache2sd and wondering if all my apps and associated data will still be there and accessible once I run the gscript to turn their features...

    Root XTRSense and the case of Disappearing Contacts

    So yesterday I flashed XTRSense4.0.6.1 to both mine and my wife's Eris. My phone has been running great with no problems whatsoever. This afternoon my wife calls me freaking out because her contacts have disappeared... all of them. She said they were all there this morning and all of a sudden...

    Eris out of the country

    Tomorrow I will be going to Canada for 10 days for a hiking trip. I know I won't be able to use the mobile network but it's possible I'll have access to WiFi in some of the places I'll be staying. Does anyone know what I will/won't be able to do with my Eris while I'm out of the country? Will...

    Root 360

    So is there a way to get 360 degree rotation on a rooted Eris without having to flash a new ROM? I just rooted my phone a couple days ago by flashing Engtools3 and now I'm overclocked to 768 and I'd really like to keep my phone the way it is. Is there an .apk I can install to do this or is it...

    Root Question about Engtools3.zip

    Okay, so last night I finally got the Android SDK installed properly and the command prompt communicating with my phone. Using the newer ([WORKING] ROOT for all Eris' - xda-developers) root method I pushed Engtools3.zip to my phone from the command prompt rather than any other custom ROM...

    Handcent contact issue

    While composing a new message in Handcent if I touch "To:" it allows me to start typing the name of the recipient but for some reason it will only find certain people in my contact list... not everybody:confused:. I don't know if I saved some of my contacts as "phone" contacts rather than...

    Calls being dropped...

    So this has happened a few times when my wife and I have been talking on the phone together (we both have the Eris, both 2.1) and one of us will hear a very faint beep followed by silence. When I take the phone away from my face the security pattern screen appears and there's no notification...

    Ringtone Problem Since 2.1 Update

    So I did the manual update to 2.1 yesterday and everything's great except for one issue. I have a ringtone set for my wife so that I know when she's calling but for some reason since the update it plays the default ringtone for her. I've tried deleting her contact and then manually adding the...

    Random Reboots

    Okay, tonight I showed my wife, who has a Droid Eris like me, that the icon in her notification panel was telling her there were updates available for some of her apps. Turns out she hasn't updated any of them so she updated them all at once. Her phone starts lagging quite a bit and reboots...

    Help transfering files from PC to Eris

    I've had the droid Eris from Verizon now for just over 24 hours now and I'm quite happy with it. The only problem I'm having is with data transfer from my PC to the phone. I want to load ringtones and pictures to the phone but even though I correctly installed the drivers I can't find a folder...
