I would like one

Maybe an obvious question, but are you using the actual Gmail application or the mail application that also comes with the phone? I've tried both and the mail application has a lag of a few minutes. Gmail is instant. Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk

I would think you just start in the middle of step 6th (where you put the RUU on your sd card and flash). Then follow steps 7 to 9. Please wait for someone else to confirm this before you try it. Just trying to make sure your question is addressed. I'm kind of a noob at this rooting thing...

For anyone who is hesitating about rooting... It's really not that bad. I had never done it before last night and I figured the whole thing out. My prior phone was an og droid that I brought pre rooted in ebay so I have enjoyed the benefits of root without ever going through the process. I had...

I left my tbolt off the charger overnight and it only lost 10% of its battery with 4g and wifi on. However, I get excellent coverage in my apartment. I was in a building yesterday where I always get bad service and my tbolt lost about 30% of its charge in about an hour. So my question to the...

Check out my signature... I guess that's the code for the thunderbolt. Anyway, I got mine! About 10 people ahead of me on 57th st in Manhattan. Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk

Anyone in line in Manhattan? I'm trying to weigh the benefits of the tbolt against the consequences of leaving my desk for too long. I'm thinking about going to the 57th st location. They open at 9:30. Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk

I don't even know why I'm still awake refreshing the VZW webpage... I'm planning on going to the store tomorrow morning. I guess I'm still in disbelief that this phone is really coming.

I read the whole thing and understood every reference... that's so sad! I need this phone in my hands so I can get back to the real world. Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk

Since it was not in the press release then I doubt it. I remember reading somewhere that vzw starts taking online orders for new phones at 3 am ET on the day of the launch. You'll get free overnight shipping so you should have it on Friday. I think I may do that since I may not be able to step...

Yay! Can't wait for the press release. I hope I can preorder online today or tomorrow. I have to work on Thursday and i'm afraid they will sell out. Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk

These announcements generally come in the form of a press release. Your best bet is to keep a close eye on: news.vzw.com You may actually see if quicker if you go to the VZ page of yahoo finance or google finance where you will see it the minute it hits the news wires: VZ: Summary for Verizon...

Monday is the day we get a date. It has to be after a post like that. Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk

They usually take pre-orders for high profile phones which would require them to announce it about a week before the launch so those that pre-order will get it the same day as the launch. However, given all the delays and anger on the internet, I can see them not doing pre-orders just to get...

I'm starting to think bennnnn is not really posting in secret, but rather is being told to say these things by his boss and other vzw executives. He's vzw's attempt to ease tensions in the forums, without making any public announcement. That's my conspiracy theory for the day. Sent from my...
