    Rooting FAQ's (please post all related questions and concerns about rooting in here)

    Anything that doesn't work after a root? I'm () this close to rooting my Eris (on OTA 2.1 right now). What I would like to know, and can't seem to find out, is if after rooting and installing a custom ROM are there apps that don't work anymore, like Handcent or, say, a game you downloaded...

    Handcent & Facebook, grrrr

    My settings on my Eris (2.1): Under "people"/"view contacts" I do NOT have the box checked for facebook contacts. The only boxes checked are for Google & Gmail and the one that says "only contacts with phone number" (and I've tried unchecking that and it does not seem to have an effect on...

    another update coming next week?

    Well, I got my update last weekend, seems to be a bit more speedy and have a bit less lag when I try to do things. It still isn't as responsive as I'd like it to be, however, it's better than it was after the initial 2.1 update (but still not as good as it was BEFORE).

    Some issues...(just my eris like a month ago)

    Touch your handcent icon, then hit menu button when on your main screen, ie the one w/all the recent conversations, touch settings, touch notification settings then scroll til you see vibrate, hit that and select your option. You can even select a vibrate pattern for different people thru the...

    Calling in about eris problems.

    I also emailed them, stated my issues and waited for a response. I told them all the things that were wrong and was hoping I could get an early upgrade somehow. They responded back that if I'm having bluetooth problems I should back it all up and then do a hard reset. I responded back that...

    Eris 2.1 Changes/Findings

    Guess I'll try the call history trimmer - shouldn't be necessary though. This new update, at first, I thought was great .... but it's turning out to not be so. Now I'm getting the silent call bug at random times, and it's still laggy from the time when I touch something to the phone actually...

    Eris 2.1 Changes/Findings

    I have, luckily, only had silent call bug once. But what seems to happen all the time is that the phone rings a few times before the # pops up, then takes its time telling me who it is and then FINALLY if there is a CID picture attached that will pop up. Slow, slow sloooooooowwww.

    Sync Eris 2.1 with 2 diff Google Calendars?

    Now, of course my phone is showing all three calendars in three different colors - go figure. My original sync'd work calendar, plus the additional calendar I added under that gmail account are the two different colors I selected. And, now the other gmail account that has home cal has decided...

    Sync Eris 2.1 with 2 diff Google Calendars?

    Ah, figured out the issue .... my original work cal is set up under one gmail address. My home cal is/was set up under a totally separate gmail address. I figured out how to share the calendars via calendar sharing on google.com. What I did was added another calendar under my gmail work cal...

    Sync Eris 2.1 with 2 diff Google Calendars?

    Silly question for you, but if you don't use the calendars that are in the phone, what calendar do you look at on your phone? Tried turning off the calendar sync to main work calendar and turning back on again, didn't make a difference in color. The home calendar doesn't have a sync option on...

    Sync Eris 2.1 with 2 diff Google Calendars?

    Odd, when I'm in Google Cal (tried it with both the original work sync'd cal and the home cal) and change the colors (did it by click on the calendar name and the little color palette comes up). I change the color, add a "test" notification in and then refresh the phone calendar ... still comes...

    Sync Eris 2.1 with 2 diff Google Calendars?

    You're right about that, but it hasn't changed the colors on my phone - I only seem to have red and blue and cannot change them (not so far anyway).

    text messaging?

    I also was using handcent before the update, I love the way it's so customizable - after the update its more laggy than, well, I don't know, but it's ridiculous. So, I uninstalled it and tried the regular messaging app, it's not really any better, imho. Installed Chomp and that started causing...

    Sync Eris 2.1 with 2 diff Google Calendars?

    OK, thank you!!! I logged into the workcal google account, this is the one that is already synced w/my phone, clicked in the "add a friend's calendar" box and input the gmail address for my home calendar. Logged into the home cal gmail account and accepted the request that was emailed to me...

    Sync Eris 2.1 with 2 diff Google Calendars?

    I posted this same Q elsewhere, but there seems to be more activity over here ..... I have a gmail account for work set up on my Eris - My "work cal" syncs fine between my google account, the eris calendar and my Ical on my Mac. I also have a personal gmail account that syncs between the...
