    Skype Voice

    Any idea on how long it will take Verizon+Skype to get a working "official" version? Some blogs online were pessimistic and thought this would never happen. I highly doubt that. I think Verizon & HTC really screwed up on this phone. They wanted it all: 4.3" screen + LTE. It just doesn't work...

    Skype Voice

    That's just great! I wonder how long it will take Verizon and Skype to get their act together. Mid July before Skype Mobile is working on the Thunderbolt? I repeat - I DO NOT WANT VIDEO. I just want to be able to make plain audio calls over Skype Mobile.

    Skype Voice

    But just to confirm: Skype MOBILE is not available for HTC Thunderbolt running on Verizon?

    Skype Voice

    Didn't one of the leaked versions have a security flaw? I assume the updated fixed it. Didn't both leaked versions suffer from lost calls and sudden shutdowns? I'm running CyanogenMod 7.0 on my Incredible and even on the Inc, Skype Mobile goes offline frequently so I have to constantly keep...

    Skype Voice

    That sucks! Maybe I should have gone for the Charge. I just didn't want to deal with Samsung's restrictive policies and also them taking 2 years to update Android.

    Skype Voice

    ... This is what I'm talking about - nobody knows for sure. I just want to know if Skype Mobile works on the Thunderbolt for its intended purpose. THX

    Skype Voice

    I just ordered a Thunderbolt. In the mean time: I was wondering if someone could tell me if Skype Audio Calls (via Verizon's Voice network, not 3G/LTE/Wifi) are working? Currently, I use the Verizon Skype app on my Droid Incredible and it works great. I'm not worried about minutes because I...

    Battery LIfe

    I wish - my 3500 doesn't last more than 12 hours...so to be on the safe side, I charge it while at work. I've done everything - ATK every 30 mins, I don't even do that much browsing. I never charge my phone while off b/c then the alarm won't ring. And I don't like turnign it off. The 3500 sucks...

    Incredible with Froyo

    Sadly, this is why I'm waiting until HTC cleans up this release so they can release a final. I'm convinced that the current leak with the 0-Gmail problem and all the other bugs that many people are experiencing is NOT final.

    to wipe+update+root+froyo or not to root? that is the question

    I think I actually agree. Have way too many more important things to do. Not a developer, but eventually want to root Froyo. There will be plenty of opportunity for that after the OTA.

    to wipe+update+root+froyo or not to root? that is the question

    I'm not so worried about updating as much as about updating to a semi-defective ROM. People are now reporting various issues with the build.

    to wipe+update+root+froyo or not to root? that is the question

    I was going to root and follow the procedure to get the Froyo leak on my DROID Incredible until I read some poor guy's story. He yanked his battery too early during the radio update - I don't blame him though - the phone was stuck and taking too long. Now his phone is bricked! And this was...

    Some things about the new Incredible I just got.

    HTC might have said that but we all know that's bull. PC Mag tested both types of screens and reported on it so you should read it.

    Some things about the new Incredible I just got.

    LCD & AMOLED are not the same screens! You should read up on the advantages and disadvantages of each screen type. It's personal preference but all I'm going to say is that GOOG picked AMOLED for the Nexus1.
