    Everyone gets to laugh at me on this one. :) I somehow corrupted my Home app. The phone runs fine: answers calls, receives and replies to messages and e-mails........so long as it does not involve the launcher. This means I cannot initiate a program of any kind unless it is swyping to...

    Dumping Go Launcher EX for Zeam!

    I really liked Go Launcher EX when I first tried it a few months ago. It was a nice step up from the poor Commando stock launcher app. Over time it has become a pretty good bit of bloatware. Large, slow, too many menu items added to the stock menu. More and more it appears to be a venue for...

    C771 wish list: "Green" annoyance

    Dear Casio; Why did you waste our time with the "unplug power supply" notification? Every time I charge I get a little green globe pop up on the notification bar that does not go away until I select it. It reminds me to unplug the power supply to save energy. How many people are really going...

    Root Rooted Titanium users: 330meg of RAM free

    My phone now has 330 meg of RAM free. I accomplished this by moving my apps to ROM by converting them to "system apps" using Titanium. To do this, just long press on a user app and hit the "convert to system app" button. Almost all of my apps were able to be converted. They still get updated...
