    To root or not the root...the $500 question

    Is there by chance a R3charged for dummies anywhere. I also came from the Pre and could do anything I wanted on it but haven't had the time to research what to do with the Evo. This sounds like what I want though, especially being able to get more internal memory. Can I delete the sprint...

    Evo for dummies, rooting and wireless tether ?'s

    I'm starting a new thread rather than looking through old because quite frankly the old scare me, especially after the newest update. I DID update my phone for lack of realizing that in a day or 2 I would consider rooting. What I want is wireless tether and will not pay 30.00 a month after...

    adw launcher

    This just happened to me with the default HTC Evo launcher this past week. It went back after I went in and changed it to my default ringer and then to back to the custom but that would be a pain to do it to all the ringers and I've only changed back my husbands so far.

    Daughters first phone

    Thanks, yes her fingers are very small. I have a feeling she'll use the physical keyboard much more but for now she wants one like mine, probably just to have one like mine though and for no other reason.

    Daughters first phone

    My daughters birthday is coming up and she is ready for her first phone. You can't beat the price for the intercept and she likes my android so I think this is the phone we are going with. Does it have a decent onscreen keyboard? She liles mine but I have swype. Also, does Google lattitude work...

    Epic not getting a good signal, would Evo work better?

    I have full bars at home with my Evo and only had 3 with the Epic. I also either seem to get better battery our its the fact that the Evo charges much faster so if I forget to charge I can throw it on the charger for a quick charge and have some charge for use where the Epic took forever to...

    Home screen dilemma

    Calendar widget, calculator, music, facebook, power settings, app folders you can categorize makes it easier to find rather than using the app button, favorites (contacts) screen or bar, internet bookmarks, gosh, there are tons of ways to make it all yours.

    I'm a Newbie

    Give it time. My husband has a BB and I hate it. I'm just not into the menus you have to go through for everything and the constant scrolling the menus. I think that once you get the hang of this you'll really like it.

    Any PREgrets?

    I came from the Pre also. I could not wait until my upgrade to finally turn it over to my son to become his new camera and play toy. I was not longer receiving calls on it reliably and got so tired of sitting waiting for e-mails to come up for it to just quit responding. The pre was really...

    You know that silly battery trick....

    Do you have to do this everytime you charge or is it a one time only thing. I'm all for saving battery but I'm home most of the day and work 3rd so I'm able to charge often. There are days that I'm out all day though and would like to not have to worry about battery drain.

    Please HELP..cannot connect to wifi all of the sudden :-(

    Oh I wish a reboot worked for mine. I had to reset the whole thing and reconfigure it for internet. Got my daughters Ipod up and working now though and my huband won't come home mad from working out of town that his wifi is out.

    Please HELP..cannot connect to wifi all of the sudden :-(

    Hum, what a cooincidence. My daughter came in with her ipod touch and was complaining that her connection was down so I tried it on my Evo and had the same results that you had. Internet connection is fine and wifi signal is full. I have no clue what is going on. VERY WEIRD!!!

    My swype stopped working?

    I just installed SlideIt and it isn't bad at all. I can't say it is Swype good but really close. The only thing I don't really like is that you can't hide the keyboard but I so rarely need that anyway when I'm actively typing. Try it. There is a free trial. If you don't like it you don't...

    ?s on Evo's mail and send to voicemail functions?

    Wish me luck. I got the Evo today and all set up. Is there a way to combine email accounts at all? Luckely both are downloading my emails so that is a plus. Hopefully they will stay on my device when I need them. That was driving me nuts, especially when it happened again last night I...
