    Car charger & GPS

    As long as the phone sees it as charge only. If you plug it in and it thinks it's plugged into a PC it will throttle the charge rate. I use the Moto "blue light" one and it works great. $5 off amazon.

    Has this happened to anyone? Hard brick

    You had the battery in when using Odin? I normally flash with it out.

    Droid Charge HDMI Cable

    I didn't even realize that it didn't. Probably shouldn't have asked her if the cable worked becasue she said yes. Wonder where she plugged it in? :confused:

    Netflix on Charge

    The whole Netflix is evil for raising their prices is quite overblown. Pretty sure they were operating at a loss with the $2 DVDs in the mail deal. If they are not making money how do you expect them to improve their services or create new services? Also realize the MPAA are squeezing them for...

    Replacemnt launcher

    Used LauncherPro, GO launcher and ADW. I liked GO until it went wonky in landscape. Presently using LauncherPro. As stated above it really comes down to personal preference.

    Car charger & GPS

    On a trip camping this weekend I noticed a few things. On the way up at night the charger actually kept up with navigation, trapster and dashboard assist running. Seems night mode sucks less power. There even was a about a 20 mile stretch where there is no cell service and that didn't affect it...

    Home Screen in Landscape Mode

    Like stated above an aftermarket launcher fixes this if it really is an issue. I have used LauncherPro and GO and both work quite well.

    Just get a charger that outputs 1+amp and you don't have to worry.

    Aftermarket Non-OEM battery?

    Got the batteries and charger last Saturday. Everything works fine, no battery errors and it almost seems the aftermarket ones last slightly longer. That's probably just in my mind though. Only minor issue is the wall charger seems to take forever but it also has a USB connection so you can...

    Droid Charge HDMI Cable

    I got mine off of amazon for $.81. Works on my charge, friend's droid x and GF's Tbolt.

    Droid Charge - Absolute Garbage

    I have the charge and my GF has the Tbolt. Playing with both I have to say the charge is the superior 4LTE phone. The Tbolt randomly reboots more often than the charge and it sucks battery pretty quickly. You may very well gotten a lemon and I'd exchange it and see if you have a better...

    Car charger & GPS

    My only worry is pushing that amperage constantly will shorten the life of the battery. I know from RC cars the harder you charge them the less life you get. I don't know if it holds true with Li-ion batteries as well. On my way home I was running dashboard assist (datalogging speed and such...

    WiFi Hotspot- Free Trial on Charge?

    I am rooted but I haven't really had the need to tether right now becasue I have a netbook with the verizon radio built in. I have read that you can get free tethering with a rooted Charge so I will find out when the netbook term is up.
