Phantastic... it's the camera LED. Do as Astrolux says. That's it. Now, does this mean the camera LED is bad, or is it normal?

The "no sound" thing is common. I would image that will be fixed in a pushed update. I get it too and before I dropped the Photon. I never really worried about drops before having had Nokia feature phones that could handle mountain bike crashes into rocks and so on. But these smartphones are...

Me too. It sounds like a fit issue.

Interestingly the rattle appears quieter if I hold the "power" button. Still rattles, but signifivantly less. I think we might have identified that the issue is at the "power" button. I will take it back tomorrow. It doesn't bother me but I just don't want to end up with a lemon for the next...

Battery cover is on. Tried with it off and removing the battery.

SIM and SD are tight. The rattle doesn't bother me at all. I just know that my EVO 3G was never the same after a drop where I broke the glass--kept overheating. I'd be interested to know if any other Photons rattle.It doesn't sound major.

Would someone be kind enough to pick up their Photon and see if it rattles. Mine has a very feint rattle--sounds like a loose button maybe. I dropped the phone, tested it for breakage by shaking it and noticed the rattle.I never noticed it before and don't know if the drop caused it, or it was...

Thanks, but I didn't see the Photon as an option in the ooVoo downloads.

I tried Vtok and Yahoo Messenger because I'm looking for Photon-to-PC. Yahoo Messenger uses the wrong camera and Vtok quality was poor. You also have to keep the PC's browser up to get the notification of the call. Skype released an update for video today that works on more phones. Didn't have...

Thanks. I've been reverse tethering my EVO 4G to a Cradlepoint Mi-Fi-like device, and then attaching the Cradlepoint to a data stick tn EU to take advantage of Android data features. What with a tablet too, and an unlocked GSM Palm phone for voice, the battery management alone has been a...

Any updates on whether the SIM slot will be locked to a carrier?

My interpretation of the specs (GPRS 12 and EDGE 12) means no 3G when using the GSM networks in Europe. This looks like a 2.5G phone rather than 3G. Can that be right? 2.5G is OK for e-mail and text-oriented web browsing, but not acceptable for media. Am I missing something?

You got it. Well done. Thank you.

I get this error message when I try to run apk's on the NC. I have tried with Astro, Root Explorer and AppsInstaller. Am I missing something obvious? The apk's come from Market via HTC Evo. I have also tried to run apk's that are already on the autonooter 3.0 install, like Google Search and get...

That works with Zeam (sp?) too.
