I bought the EVO from BB Friday and have a few ?s:
1) If I run one app, and then switch to another app without closing or exiting from the first app, how do I get back to the first app? Windows XP has a task bar, or even ALT+TAB, for this purpose. Does Android have something similar?
2) If I copy text to the clipboard, how do I paste it elsewhere? I copied text from a page in a web browser but couldn't figure out how to paste it.
3) Is there a way to highlight text for the purpose of copying it to the clipboard? When I copied the text I mentioned above it didn't highlight anything until I told it to Copy. Windows XP highlights each letter as it is selected. I don't expect Android to imitate XP, but I do want to know what I should expect so I can use it appropriately.
4) Is there any way to get rid of Sprint bloatware, short of rooting the phone? I am in no way a NASCAR fan so I really don't want the Sprint NASCAR app.
5) When I tried out the Sprint-provided Hotspot functionality there seemed to be no way to change the SSID, nor the encryption type/code. It seems to be a bit of a security risk for all EVOs to use the same SSID and pin code. Can this be changed?
6) Is there an app that will alert me if I come into range of a 4G tower, even if I currently have 4G turned off? I'd rather not turn on the 4G unless I was sure I was within range.
7) Is there an app for picking up shortwave radio?
8) How do I turn on the speakerphone?
Thanks!
