Well, in December I was able to get temp root on the Gem using the RageAgainstTheCage exploit. Here's the issue, the PERMISSIONS for BusyBoy and Superuser WILL NOT STICK. That's the only thing between a temp root and a perm root on this phone. No idea why the permission refuse to stick...

Looks like some of you may be able to upgrade... I DO NOT recommend anyone on Verizon do this! Samsung Gem EH17 software update now available | Android Central

I found this method here: how to root android 2.1 on Samsung Gem - JustAnswer The question was asked specifically for Verizon's Andoid 2.1 Gem. Has anyone tried this method? Success? Failure? I would really love to know--my GF absolutely hates her phone so I'd like to get in there, remove...

I thought this was very interesting to see. Due to resolution issues, I bet this would be difficult to port to the Eris from the Desire, but who knows? stranger things have happened! I'm curious to hear what everyone thinks of this...

Shocker: Verizon says Droid Eris won't get Froyo -- Engadget Update: No Froyo for Droid Eris, Verizon confirms - Computerworld Confirmed: HTC Droid Eris will not get Froyo - Computerworld Blogs

First and foremost, I fully advocate setting your CPU speed (via SetCPU, Gscripts, or otherwise) to 19.2 MHz Minimum, On Demand, across all profiles. This will greatly improve your battery life and you will not see a decrease in performance. (NOTE: Do NOT adjust your CPU minimum to 19.2 MHz if...

I noticed that you can now add a "Reboot" button to SwitchPro that works a lot like Quick Boot. This is GREAT! and I am super excited. When you press the button, you're given the option for Reboot/Recovery/Bootloader (also awesome!). The problem is... it doesn't work! Is this an issue with my...

Sorry, some how this double-posted. MODS: Please delete.

Hey, all. This is a re-post from what I just posted up at XDA. My apologies if you're reading this twice! So . . . I have been silently following the Eris section of XDA for months now, mostly checking out all of the features with ROMs. I really started looking into rooting my phone a few...

After almost any action I take with my phone, upon exiting the application I am using Sense will crash. Right now, in Running Services I've got . . . MediaPlaybackService - Media = 6.6MB - Music = 2.0MB GTalkService - Google = 5.9MB BootUpService - Battery Left = 2.3MB NotificationService...

So, I'm using (and loving) Pure Calendar to display all of my Google Calendars. IMHO, it looks much nicer (using the Sense skin) than the stock HTC Agenda Widget. The big problem is that Pure Calendar will never be able to scroll like the HTC widget does, because there is no API for Sense (I'm...

So, I'm running the 2.1 OTA and was really impressed with LauncherPro Beta. The biggest issues seems like 1) there is a currently unconfirmed battery drain within LauncherPro (hey, it's BETA) and 2) you'll lose your HTC Widgets. How hard would it be to mesh Sense-able 3.1 (which I've heard...

Received my 2.1 OTA at 1:36 AM last night and ever since, I can't manually lock my phone by short pressing the power button anymore. I thought maybe this was a Spare Parts issue, since I had changed the Power Button behavior on 1.5 using Spare Parts (when I pressed Power from any screen, it...

I've seen more than a few users in the OTA section commenting on the new Navigation Shortcut for Google Maps. This is NOT part of the OTA, per se, but is due to a Google Maps for Mobile update that coincidentally debuted today. This is from the Official Google Mobile Blog:

Recently, my Eris has been screaming at me about running out of memory . . . Went to check out my Apps and clear necessary cache and noticed that ZAGAT '10 is now a 49.69MB Application?! WTF? The Application itself is only 756KB, but there is 48.95MB worth of Data. It won't let you clear...

I saw the Lotus Notes Mail thread and decided to start a thread for my own issue . . . I've actually done some investigating on this (since January '10) and haven't really been able to find a definitive answer or set of instructions on how to get help with my issue. I don't want my work e-mail...

I took this from another thread over in Applications, but figured I would post here since we're all Eris users. That's an awesome idea. People, IMO, is a great app. Mail kind of sucks . . . Here's my dilemma, I really like how Mail will give me that nice green circle on the Shortcut that...

So, I've installed Call Log Trimmer and Not Call Log--love 'em. Is there anything similar to Call Log Trimmer for text messages (ie. once messages reach 200, it blasts the thread). Also, if any one reading this is a dev, please make a 1.5 compatible app that rolls the features of Not Call Log...
