Alright, this is a tricky one: My tech-inept sister did something to her HTC Droid Incredible (she has no idea what), and now it's missing the notification drawer at the top of the home screen. If you click menu --> notifications, nothing happens. It's not only hidden, it seems like it's not...

Normally I wouldn't worry, but when it does crash, and I'm not paying attention to my phone, it suddenly sucks the battery big time. If it happens overnight while I'm sleeping, the battery will be dead. I just checked my phone now; last check was about 2 hours ago, it was at 90-odd percent, and...

When I get a phone call, the caller ID pic is significantly lower resolution than it should be. I am a bit perplexed. For example, the picture I chose for my girlfriend (she doesn't have a facebook) looks fine full screen, as it's a sufficiently high resolution pic. But when she calls, it looks...

With one specific contact, I would like to set a custom pic rather than sync with the facebook profile pic. I do this through the Photo app, but soon afterwards, it gets overridden by the FB pic. Is there anyway to stop this from happening? Other than de-linking the contact with the...

I'm guessing this is because the light detector determines I have plenty of light and thus decides that I don't need them to glow. But really, it's just annoying, as in direct light, i can't see the keys whatsover thanks to glare. Thus, my questions: 1. is it normal for the soft key lights to...

I always disliked on my old flip phone how any ring tones i'd cut for it were inevitably quieter than the stock or ones you could buy. I'm glad that the Dinc is so easy to customize -- just select the mp3 I want and put it in the right folder, and bam, ringtone. But I still can't help but...

Is there anyway to turn off the HTC Sense Weather animations? I like the widget, but I don't need it to animate windshield wipers to let me know it's pouring outside. I can see and hear that for myself. The cloud effects also clash badly with my background. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in...

I've been noticing that available memory goes down overtime, regardless of my behavior. Advance TaskKiller usually lists 200mb free when i first turn on my phone. it's now at 143, despite no new apps open, and i've seen it go to 50mb before. A simply reboot solves the problem (obviously), but...

Google Talk is nice, it's too bad it doesn't let me sign onto AIM like the chat in Gmail in a web browser allows. So I'm wondering -- what's the best app for AIM on Android? The official app? Meebo? Which one integrates best with android notifications and what not? Thanks in advance
