    Wont go into Debug mode

    That may be part of your problem. The cable that comes with the phone is not worth beans. Buy a good cable and your problem might go away. I had problems with mine (and the one from my wife's when I first tried to root my Epic. Got a good one and no more problems. George

    App that sinks with Quicken

    Thanks all. I was never payed for my typing (or spelling) ability. Mainframe networking (and network interface equipment) yes. As for sinking smart phones, I have already done that a few times. I dropped my treo 300, 600, and 755 in water. I got all three working again. The 755 was easy...
