    Thread Carrier compatibility question

    Correct me if I am wrong, but the single sim U11 unlocked phone will work on any gsm network correct? I need to replace mine and I'm seeing phones on eBay that say they are unlocked but will only work on AT&T and T-Mobile but will not work on Verizon which is what I have. This doesn't make sense...

    Thread Is there a cache other than Dalvik?

    I read in a lot of threads where people recommend wiping "cache and Dalvik-cache" to fix a variety of problems. I know apps have their own cache but does the Eris have a cache other than Dalvik? I'm using GSB 3.8 and I don't see another cache, but maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
