    Thread Free tethering (with Verizon at least)

    I want to preface this with that I am on Verizon so this is using the Verizon hotspot app and I have rooted my phone but I expecet this to do the same on a non-rooted phone. I have noticed that if I go directly into the app, the service will not work because it does a check to see if I pay for...

    Thread Might everyone push to get IceCream on their handsets?

    A Dutch court ruled that Android 2.3 violates an Apple patent and they say they can avoid the violation by upgrading the phones to 3.0. Since 3.0 isn't coming to phones it would be nice if this pushed all manufactures to start pushing 4.0 to all supported phones ASAP to keep Apple off their...

    Thread Make your own cables

    So far I have learned how to make a USB host cable and a universal charging cable. I have shared this in a few post but I figured it would be good to have them all in one place with a diagram. I will update this drawing as I learn how to build the other cables. Thanks goes out to pokey9000...

    Thread [Q] Live Wallpaper on lock screen

    On my phone running 2.3 the lockscreen shows whatever wallpaper I normally have including live wallpapers. However, it looks like in 3.1 you need to choose a separate wallpaper for the lockscreen and it won't let me choose a live wallpaper. Does anyone know a work around for this?

    Thread [Q] Bluetooth File Transfer

    Now that all the USB connections seem to be fixed, has anyone done a bluetooth connection to their computer? I don't want to carry the proprietary 30-pin cable everywhere so I was hoping I could do a bluetooth connection to my work computer and get files that way. When I pair up the equipment...

    Thread [Q] Best way to carry this thing

    So there are some people that talked about this in other forums but it is related to a 7" tablet and not the 10" tablets. I am used to carrying my phone (DInc) with me everywhere and I keep it in my pocket and don't have to think about it unless I need it. Occasionally I bring my laptop...

    Thread Custom holder

    When I had the Eris I used some plexiglass and a heat gun to make a cradle but with the button placement and shape of the DInc, it was a bit harder to make so I designed a simple holder in SolidWorks to hold the phone vertically. It holds it by the bottom 1" of the phone and has a cut out for...

    Thread Verizon Trade-In Program get $132!

    Verizon now has a trade in program and I put in some of my old Phones(Palm 700p and Samsung i760) only to find out they were worthless. However when I put in my Eris it came up with a surprising $132. Being that I only paid $50 in the first place for it, I'm shocked. Thought I would share...
