I have actually read...

    I appreciate the super fast response and the thoroughness. The response should be made a sticky since I'm sure others might have the same question. nobarb I find your comment ironic in light of the avatar name but I assume that is your (hopefully) honest and, meant-to-be, helpful opinion.

    Post Does anyone still use this phone anymore??

    I'm another "bought it for Tracfone" & would love a new ROM I've tried the eclipse and am currently on CM 10-20120113-unofficial-daytona. I'm really not happy with either. This CM 10 freezes a lot and the phone seems to suffer from lack of memory a lot.

    I can't get Skype or xfinity connect audio to work on my Venue 8. No one can hear me. There are several people with the same problem posting in the Dell support forum but since Dell provides almost zero support I thought I would ask here. TIA.
