Seems the problem is when you have a hardware failure under warranty... Not only do they(of course) see all your non-sd data, but they might see it was rooted and refuse to replace it.

I got this all the time when my Charge was new. It's been a while, but I believe it was specific to background task memory. I tried the clear memory button, which only helped temporarily because all the background services would eventually restart. So when given the option to not get this...

I set a daily am alarm (and use my docked Charge as an bedside alarm clock). How do I ensure Android OS won't kill the Night Clock app on me between mornings? I.e. Is there a task kill exemption list that will protect it even in low memory multitasking situations? Is there anything special...

Has anyone found a video player that can switch landscape video to play with the usb charging port on the top? I'd like to keep the charger plugged in. Right now, to keep it plugged in, I have to prop the phone up on the edge of something. Of course, it's not a problem with the desktop dock...

FYi, in case anyone else has this problem, it seems to be software related, and due to extreme lag. Still intend to try Go Launcher EX or Launcher Pro one of these days...

Of course, if you turn off notifications. My solution was to use MyProfiles. I found it after much searching to solve a similar problem - how to keep it from making noise at night. It also allows multiple profiles that can be scheduled. I have one for Work, Home, Bedside, etc. Works great for...

Sprint and Verizon have offered free apps in the past for things such as NFL (with free streaming live game audio and live scores and video updates) or even free mobile TV. Is there anything like that for Droid Charge? Also, is there any reason to try the Verizon market?

My lag issues are generally at various startups... When turning on, I have tovwait before entering my numeric lock code. When docking it takes a moment to finish whatever it is doing. And when hitting the home button, I have to wait before I can navigate launcher screens. Do alternate launchers...

I noticed the weak reception with my Charge because wifi fails in parts of my home. But on my iPad, wifi signal strength is fine.

Thank you! Time to install LP!!!

Yep...no comparison. Works fine when out of the dock.

When my Charge is docked in the desktop dock, I have all kinds of problems with the touch screen - it won't respond properly to touches or swipes. It seems to be either a lag issues, or a dock app problem. It's really bad - to the point that I can't even input my passcode to unlock the screen...

Does Launcher Pro have something easy like the TW swipe down from the top of the screen to toggle GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi, MobileData, etc?

So this is more about the Dock application than Android, but I can't figure out how to get to home screens while on the dock. I can hit exit to get out of the main dock page, but then if I'm not at a home screen I can't find any way to get to home other than lots and lots of the hardware return...

I'm currently using the kickstand case from Verizon. It has a thin back case of plastic that pops on and off, with a collapsable kickstand on the back. I hardly notice it. The separate front piece slides on nicely and had a belt clip attached. It's quite nice. I use it mostly without the front...
