    Help Hard to explain, if you have Android 4.1 or a DNA, please look

    You know when you use an application and sometime it'll ask what you want to "open" or "use" it with. Then it has 2 options "Always" or "Only Once". Well I need to get that to pop up with my Android device whenever I use my bluetooth. I accidentally pressed "Always" when I meant to press "only...

    What's the shortest battery life you've gotten?

    We've spent a great amount of time optimizing our DNAs to maximize the rather small battery that's in the device, but I want to go the opposite route and ask who has gotten incredibly short run times from their devices? For me, it seems my driving setup is ideal for killing the battery in...

    Root KitKat Android 4.4

    OK, so I'd like to ask and see if once the HTC One gets KitKat will that enable it to be played with and ported over to be flashable for the DNA? I just watched QBKing77's video on KitKat and I must say that I rather like a good amount of the new features. I don't like that the blue is gone from...

    Help Help with file structure

    I am hoping that someone is familiar with the Droid's audio file structure. Ever since I transferred my songs from my Tbolt to my DNA Droid, it's been messed up. It's most obvious when I want to pick a sound for the phones alarms. When tapping on the alarm sound, you first get three choices...

    Root Can I Use Just Any Ol' Splash Screen?

    OK, so the title says it all pretty much. My question is basic and that the Verizon splash screen is slow when it comes up and I don't like it. I am running the stable Nos m7 sense 5.0 Jelly Bean 4.3 Rom. So if i just pick a splash screen at random will it work? And is it just a zip file that i...

    Help Help - Setting Voicemail notification sound

    I know notifications have always been a problem on Android phones, or at least on the HTC phones that I've had in the past. I just got the DNA this week. There is the usual option to set your default (system) notification sound in the sound profiles under main settings/personalize...

    Root Was I Late To The Update Party?

    So, Saturday I woke up and looked at my phone and saw that there was an update ready to come thru. Naturally I accepted it and since I'm stock rooted it booted into the flash menu. Which screwed me up and I just rebooted my phone and delayed the update until later. I'm just wondering what this...

    Help GPS issues with the DNA?

    I love my HTC DNA, the only issue I've had so far is GPS accuracy. I'll be driving down the highway, and the DNA/Google Nav will suddenly tell me "Turn left on Knotondis Road and ..." and show me OFF the interstate by about 300 feet or more driving on some side road! After bouncing around...
