    Root [Verizon] Bootloader Unlock on Verizon - Can You Clarify?

    Hi all. This weekend I crushed my current phone, so I'm looking at getting a Moto X (not the new, bigger one) and moving to Verizon. I've searched the web and found a lot of confusing statements about the Verizon version and rooting. The Developer Edition can obviously be rooted, as its...

    Root Most reliable ROMs?

    As a last resort before I smash my Transform with my 5 lb hammer to end this suffering, I'm going to load a new ROM to see if that will make it usable. I've tried to read up on the various ROMs out there, and each seems to have its own problems. For those who have used them - what would you...

    Transform Update EF09

    There was a notice on my phone this morning to load an update (EF09). Before I do anything stupid, I wanted to clarify: I need to be 100% stock (stock kernel, stock recovery, unrooted) to do this, correct? If that's the case, then I'm just not gonna do it. Thanks.

    For people considering this phone - get something else

    I've had it. I gave this phone the benefit of the doubt and time. I'm a 41-yr-old professional who wants a phone that works as a phone, and also has some nice smartphone features. I accepted the fact that the Transform was running Android 2.1 while most of the competition was running 2.2. I...

    Help Weatherbug stopped working

    Has anyone else's Weatherbug stopped working since they got updated to 2.2? Mine did. I uninstalled it and then re-installed it, but still no luck. The reinstalled worked for a short time while it tried to locate me using GPS; however, when I then input my zip code, it crashed and continues...

    Help Eliminate Slide to Answer with Easy Answer

    This info was buried in the "eliminate vibration on unlock" thread, so I thought I'd make it more obvious. I just tried the "Easy Answer" app, and it makes it so that you only have to tap a large button to answer a call, not slide. It seemed to work ok on mine, so as long as this continues...
