So apparently, T-Mo has on their own will (without my permission) switched my plan on me and now I'm not grandfathered in on the free tethering/hotspot I've had since I bought my N1 3 years ago. Annoyed? Yes. Pissed? Definitely. Spoke to the reps about it and they gave me some BS answer on...

Will do this weekend, Still 1. Thanks. btw, did you get my PM?

it's pretty random to be honest. it'll pop up, and if i touch the screen it'll go away. i would say it's happened about 5 or 6 times in 2 weeks. OS problems? hardware?

here's a screenshot. take a look at the bottom. any idea what might be causing this?

No worries. You guys have helped quite a bit. My roommate, who was an engineer on a nuclear sub even got it wrong. ...lol

So before I read your reply (do you ever sleep?) I actually found one laying around the condo (no clue who it belongs to) - plugged it in and the charge indicator light and notification (middle screen) started tweaking out. Soooo, I immediately unplugged it. Guess I got my answer...lol Thanks...

Well it's this thing basically, so I can just plug in the USB cable with the micro usb connector for my phone. Just worried that it's rated at 5.1 v which is slightly higher than the charger it comes with. lol... now I remember why I should have paid attention to this in school.

Hey Greg, back to the charger question. Looking at some Ipad USB chargers rated at 5.1v 2.1a - is this a bad idea? 5.1v is slightly higher voltage than the current charger, of course. Thoughts?

Thanks Greg!

No not those. I know which dots you're referring to. My problem is different - the soft key section looks fuzzy and distorted like back in the analog cable days when you would try and tune in to a cable channel you weren't subscribed to. kinda like what you see in these two images:

Thanks. Did not know that. Appreciate the help. I'll post a screen screen as soon as the problem comes up again.

Chee! haha.... Aloha ... (they need an android version of the shaka emoticon on here)

Yes, it's ok to use a higher amperage charger (ie. 2a) or yes doing so will fry the battery? Suggestions for a good screenshot app? Here's the problem with trying to post a screen shot (although I'll try to do so) - the problem will appear for a short time then go away. A few times it's...

Hey guys, just bought my N4 - loving it so far - and had some questions that I was hoping some of you could answer for me. 1) The stock charger that comes with the phone is rated at 5v, 1.2a; is it ok to use a charger with higher amperage? So say a charger that's rated at 5v, 2.1a? I'd prefer...

Yes, it definitely is. I'm still curious about the chargers with higher amperages, though. :)
