Camera: I like 8mp, but if you drop it down to 6.5mp you get wide screen photos which makes full use of the screen when viewing in the gallery, which I like, too. Camcorder: I like 1080p, but I've heard that if you record at 720p you get more frames/sec (24 vs 30), thus smoother video...

Hi there, My Dad is interested in getting some sort of wireless boradband connection for his laptop while on the go. So far we're considering Boost, Virgin... or my latest idea Sprint. I currently have a family plan with Sprint, and since it would only be 30 bucks a month to add another...

I flashed a new rom the other day (CM7) and since then hardly any of my contacts are in my contact list... about 20 of them. Here is the thing I thought was weird... If i go into the text message app, I can type in a name and within the first few letters I type, it will pull up that contacts...

Hey everyone! My little bro (20 yrs old) want to upgrade to his first smartphone. (he now has a dumbphone w/ T-Mo.) I am thinking this would be a good start, what do you think? He says he would like to have a physical KB, so its between this and the Epic, I think. (I want him to have a good...

Hey guys, I finallly rooted my EVO... used unrevoked3 and it made it very simple. The main reason I rooted was to have access to the WiFi tethering and (eventually) run a custom ROM. Now that (I think) I'm rooted, I still cannot tether. I still get the error 76 on the phone and my laptop finds...

It looks like the 2.2 root is now up on the EVO. anyone try it yet? Froyo update for the Evo 4G is now rootable | Android Central

Well, My Cox internet took a dive on me (again) today. I had a document I need to submit immediately, so I called Sprint and activated the wireless hotspot on the EVO. It works like a champ. I went to speakeasy.net and did a speed tests... consistantly around 1.8-2.2 down on 3G. I'm pretty...
