    Thread 100% to nearly dead in 5.5 hours with no usage at all

    So my battery life so far has been hugely inconsistent. The first day it was draining so fast (60% in an hour) that I contemplated turning around and taking it right back to the Verizon store. I decided to give it a better chance than that and gave it a full conditioning cycle and all seemed...

    Thread How can I hard reset this thing?

    So I was using the camera today and accidentally hit the power button. The screen turned off and the camera appeared to stop, but I can not power the device back on. holding the power button did nothing, nor did just pressing it. Normally I'd remove the battery at this point, but as you folks...

    Thread How to brick my epic 4G permanently?

    Nope, not a typo - I want to brick my Epic 4G to the point where you can't bring it back via Odin. Even a hardware brick would suffice. Or I'd just like to break it purposefully without physical damage. I know the first thing you're thinking is insurance fraud, but it's far from that. You see...

    Thread Skype from VZW?

    This possible, anyone? Even if just for the text chart part of the app, I'd love it. I don't want the old version as its very unstable when downloading hundreds of messages at a time.

    Thread Skype from a VZW phone - possible?

    Is it possible we might be able to receive a Skype APK from any of the VZW android phones ? seems like the Droid Eris might be most compatible seeing as how it's more in line with first/2nd gen devices. Is this possible? Would distributing the APK be illegal/warez due to the exclusive contract...

    Thread Skype apk?

    Can anyone pull the Skype APK from Market, so that us non-VZW customers can try it out and see if it works? I hate that it is exclusive. And im not sure if its considered "warez" since it's a free app, but subject to carrier exclusivity. Can anyone shed light on that latter part?

    Thread Can a paid app be taken off of the market just like that???

    I downloadd Hello IM, from the shady developers Multiple Facets (I call them shady because I bought I Tweet with the impression they were bringing more updates, as they told me themselves, but instead they made the app free and abandoned it). Now, something even more shady has occurred. I...

    Thread Problem with youtube... persistent across multiple roms

    for some reason, my YouTube subscriptions on my phone won't update. I'm 100% sure I'm using the same Google-based account on my phone as I am for YouTube. My old subscriptions are still there, from the day that I've had the phone, but since then I've subscribed and unsubscribed to numerous...

    Thread How can I tell if my SD card is Class 2, 4, or 6?

    I already searched on this and the only thing i've found was you either had to know at time of purchase, or it would say on the sd card itself (a number with a circle around it). My mini SDHC Card nor the packaging it came in had neither of these, and i basically bought it at the store so i...

    Hi, I'm having a problem with the youtube app. Not all of my latest subscriptions, changes, and favorites are showing up. Since first getting my G1, I've subscribed and unsubscribed to several channels, but my G1 continues to show my old list completely unchanged. Is there something wrong with...

    Thread Couple of questions regarding youtube, as well as compcache/backing swap in CyanMod

    1) is there a way to have youtube play HQ on default, regardless of if you're on wifi, 3G, or edge? I understand the convenience in only playing HQ in WiFi, but i would think there would be an option to auto-toggle it Edge or 3G as well. 2) On CyanMod's latest stable, is Compcach with backing...

    Thread Help please, bluetooth not working on G1

    Well I have a rooted G1 with JF 1.51. Before updating from RC33, the bluetooth worked perfectly with my PS3 official bluetooth headset. Now, i get nothing. It pairs up just fine, and when I attempt to make a call I even hear a small beep, but no sound other than that. Does anyone have any idea...

    Thread how to UN-root?

    Well, I just realized that I jumped into flashing my G1 and getting root access before I was ready/before it was necessary. So now I want to go back to RC33 official firmware, but now since i'm rooted, the official RC33 update.zip file won't work. So i now have a rooted RC29 official firmware...

    Thread Frustrations with JF v1.43 please help

    Just installed. ADP 1.1 version. Well now I can't download the 2 apps I bought (DoggCatcher, and Hello IM at 10 dollars each). Also, Instant Messaging client only shows google talk, none of the others? Is it better for me to get RC33 JF1.42 instead? Will this bring those IMs back, and is there...

    Thread Let's talk screen protectors.

    I want to know what everyone uses and what's considered the best for money. I was using the one that came default with the G1 for a while, but some of the on screen items became very sensitive to touch or sometimes wouldn't register. Taking the film off did the trick as far as functionality...

I know where to find it and see the instructions on how to install it, but noone seems to ever say what it has/does. Another...
