    What does root really do for you? / vs. updating phone

    Hello, rooters. I bought the Charge in June, and rooted it a week later. I guess I'm still on EP1 or whatever, because my phone keeps asking me to update several times a day, which I always deny because I remember being told that doing so would override the root function. My question is this...

    Stock music player

    I am using the music player app PowerAMP, it is awesome. It costs $5, but it's really powerful. There is a limited run demo available if you want to try before you buy.

    picture message service not available?

    Sigh. These are the breaks when you buy any new device. Until they work out all the kinks you've basically got a tester on your hands. Big props to B-Mac for his informative post right up there ^^^. Keep the info coming. If you find a real solution or see that VZW has fixed it, come back and...

    Pros/Cons of the Charge?

    About the RAM... aren't you guys giving it too much credit with 512mb? When I go into task manager, it only shows 328 mb of RAM, and the stock phone always uses at least 200 mb, so there's only really 128mb of RAM for apps and the like. This is by far the biggest drawback to the phone that I've...

    picture message service not available?

    Has anyone else experienced this problem... When you try to send a picture message, no matter how many bars you've got, no matter how good 4G is working, no matter if your wifi is at full strength, the phone will not send a picture message. Well, not right away, at least. It says "Currently...

    Question about the charge and MMS

    Here's a question about Handcent. I just installed it, tweaked as many tweaks as I could tweak, but can't find the answer to this problem: is there any way to have Handcent project a lock screen puzzle piece when I have incoming texts? I miss that feature of the stock SMS already.

    Classic. My wife got a Charge as well and I will do the same if she won the sd lottery and I didn't.

    [How-to] Root Droid Charge**5/19/11**[Windows & Mac] Now with GingerSnap!

    Successfully rooted my Charge. Thanks to all your help, DroidXcon. Just a couple of notes to share for Mac users: I needed to add an extra line to my terminal code to get to the ./adb part. I kept having errors with no file or directory found when I input the $ cd tools command. I discovered...

    [How-to] Root Droid Charge**5/19/11**[Windows & Mac] Now with GingerSnap!

    Sorry if my post wasn't clear. I was referencing this part of the mac root post: My question, then, is this: Is gingerbreak just a command that will be recognized, or is there something extra I have to download (In addition to the main download referenced in the beginning of the post). Thanks

    [How-to] Root Droid Charge**5/19/11**[Windows & Mac] Now with GingerSnap!

    Did you leave out any steps here? You say to allow gingerbreak to do it's thing... but nowhere in the post did you provide instructions for obtaining gingersnap for mac. Not trying to be a jerk, but I usually assume PC instructions aren't valid in any way for my Mac and unless it's explicitly...
