    system apps removal

    I was digging through the apps stored in /system, and noticed "googleapps.apk". Anyone know what exactly that's for, and can it be removed? also, can "flickr", "navigator", "talk", "voice dialer", "voice recorder", and "voice search" be removed as well? I'm guessing yes, but just want to confirm

    Going from 1.6+ to backup of 1.5?

    Ok, I'm annoyed now... What is the "official" procedure for restoring a backup of a 1.5 ROM coming from a 1.6+ ROM? Is it just boot into recovery, wipe, restore backup, reboot? Every time I try a 1.6+ ROM, my backups quit working properly, and won't load....very, VERY annoying

    Format card?

    Can you format the card while it's still in the phone and the phone is on? Not from recovery, but just by mounting the card and formatting it through your computer? Quite likely a stupid question, but I just want to be sure

    Always Wipe! (before flashing)

    Lol, figured I'd throw this out there since I just forgot, AGAIN. Anytime you're trying out a 1.6, 2.0, 2.0.1, or 2.1 ROM, you need to Wipe BEFORE flashing the new ROM, or before going back to an older version with a nandroid backup. If you don't, it'll sit there on the HTC logo forever...

    Nandroid Error

    Ok, here's a new one. I'm trying to restore a backup after doing RUU and going back to bone stock. I put it on my SD card, which was just formatted, boot into the recovery console, go to Nand restore, and select it, and get an error saying "Error: run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb...

    Radio/WiFi Frequency tester?

    Does anyone know of an app that can test what frequencies are being used in the area? I'm trying to figure out if something is interfering with my wireless router, and if so what it is. I've got "WiFi analyzer", but that doesn't show anything other than wireless signals directly from routers...

    Analog Clock

    Does the small analog clock (#2 in the HTC clock widgets) still have issues with it showing the wrong time? Or is it just my phone? It shows the right location, but the time is 6 hours off

    Apps2SD

    Ok, I've been doing a bit of researching on Apps2SD, but apparently haven't found what I'm looking for. So I have a few questions, and if anyone's a little more knowledgeable than me, please help me out. Is Apps2SD worth doing? And is there any risk at downloading a corrupt app and losing...

    GPS Icon always on?

    Ok, could be a stupid question, but I'll ask anyway lol. Does the GPS icon stay on all the time if you have GPS turned on? Or does it only stay on when an app is using it? If it only stays on when an app is using it, how can I find out what particular app is using the GPS, and then close it...

    HTC Sync issues

    Is anyone having issues with HTC Sync and the phone not being able to find it on the computer? I've used it before, but today it doesn't want to find it on my computer. I uninstalled sync from the computer, and reinstalled it, even tried a hard reset on my phone, still no go. Any ideas? Or...

    More MMS Issues?

    Sorry, I don't want to resurrect an old thread so I figured I'd start a new one. Is anyone still having problems downloading MMS messages on the Hero? Using either Handcent or the stock app? I've got them both on my phone, and have gotten two MMS messages in the past two days, and neither...

    Help Screen timeout

    Sorry if this has been posted somewhere else, I didn't find it. My mom's Moment has an issue with the screen shutting off way too quickly. I've adjusted the settings to 2 minutes, but it still shuts off in like 30 seconds. Anyone have similar issues or know how to fix it? Thanks

    Removing Sprint apps

    I believe I've just rooted my phone, but haven't put a custom ROM on yet. I've got a few questions about it: 1.) What Sprint apps can be removed without affecting other things? (such as weather widget) 2.) Is there a way to eliminate some of the boot screens (especially the Sprint one)...

    Text message download

    Recently, I've been getting text messages with pictures or videos that require download, but my phone doesn't download them. I've tried on wireless, on 3G, but it just sits there trying to download and after a while says it's unsuccessful. I'm using Handcent, and haven't had this problem until...

    Stock Alarm clock snooze

    Does anyone know if ther'es a way to make it so that sliding down on the stock alarm clock is the snooze, instead of having to press the button on the screen? It's starting to get annoying that I dismiss the alarm accidentally because sliding down is so much more convenient.

    Wireless problem

    I've been lurking for a while, and now I've developed a problem on my hero that I'm not quite sure how to rectify. I'm trying to connect to my router at home, which I've done quite a few times since I got the thing in October, and it keeps saying it's unsuccessful at connecting. It's nice...
