    Help [Q] Revolution Touchscreen

    Can someone more technical than me explain why of all the Android phones on the market, the LG Revolution is the only one with touch responsiveness on-par with the iPhone? Don't get me wrong, I love all the Android phones and tablets I own or have owned. But the touch responsiveness has always...

    Help Email with folders in separate menu?

    Is there a way to get the Exchange Email folders to be in a separate menu like they are on the Samsung Fascinate? I have some 20-30 folders and having them listed in tiny tabs along the top is kind of annoying. I know I could probably load up a DK17 with the Galaxy Tab Email, but if there...

    [Q] Screen Brightness/Glare?

    I feel like the screen is abnormally outputting a lot of light for what is being displayed, making my eyes get tired really fast. Anyone know if an anti-glare or mirror protector might fix this? I've tried messing with the white/black/saturation settings, but don't honestly know if there...

    New owner...so far so good...

    Returned my Samsung Focus (WP7) and then went to Best Buy and got a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Tab. I'm liking it so far. I really wish it had an AMOLED screen, but I will live. Anyone know if there's a setting somewhere to make the screen stay on while its plugged in? I'd kind of like to double...

    Help Can I Freeze TouchWiz With Titanium Backup?

    What will happen if I try to freeze TouchWiz using Titanium Backup? I want to do it to save resources, but I feel like its going to really do something bad...not sure if anyone else has tried?

    Help HTML Email

    Does anyone know if there is a setting to make composing E-Mails in the Email client HTML? Right now mine seem to default to plaintext, despite downloading/viewing being HTML-based. It looks terrible to the recipient and does this weird running way past standard word-wrap thing. ( ...and...

    Help iPhone-like Text Editing

    One thing I kind of miss about my Incredible is it had an optical touch pad that let me move the cursor around for relatively-easy text editing. The Fascinate does not. This sucks...and to further that blow, I went and played with a Samsung Captivate and it has the same cursor-drag text...

    Home screen setup pictures

    I didn't see a Homescreen picture thread going...and it seems staple to any new phone launch...here is mine: In case anyone is wondering, the top widget is Beautiful Widgets. I missed a similarly functioning widget from my HTC Incredible so I just had to get it. The picture was taken using...

    Help Swype Beta?

    The latest Swype Beta version is 2.4.44.10912.t100, however my Fascinate shipped with 1.63.39.8794. Question: Can I install the Swype beta alongside this pre-installed one or is it going to seriously mess something up?

    Help Just to make sure its not just my phone...

    With a largely white image on screen, if you tilt the phone to the left, does it take on a pinkish hue? Also, does adding a Shortcut -> Application take insanely long to load every single time? I just want to make sure I'm not the only one experiencing this...

    Help HTC Calendar Widget

    Before I break anything or cause my phone not to boot up - does anyone know if it would be possible for me to move the HTC Calendar Widget apk from my HTC Inc. to my Samsung Fascinate and actually use it? Or is it possibly too incompatible?

    Help General UI Theme

    Anyone know if there's a way, rooted or unrooted, to change the color scheme of the general UI? It's pretty terrible (the bright blue in menu text is ugh). The Exchange mail is absolutely laughable (bright pink and blue, white, on dark grey?).

    Best Buy, Lame

    I guess Best Buy won't even price match the Verizon store across the street. Suffice to say, I told the guy he can keep his phone then because I'm not paying $70 more. I walked out. Guess I'll just wait until my Amazon order arrives...it says ETA is September 13th, even with next-day air :(

    True multi-touch UI?

    Does anyone know whether or not this Samsung Fascinate will have 5+ simultaneous touch points like the Samsung Captivate? This is the largely the reason I'm switching from an HTC Incredible. I can't stand having only 2 simultaneous touch points, and HTC hasn't made any plans or claims to...

    Root Rooting and Proximity Sensor

    I've searched the forums, and the xda forums and I haven't really been able to find a good answer on this... If I root my phone is there an option/app that will let me disable the proximity sensor? Thanks in advance.

    Help HTC Incredible Touchscreen vs. iPhone/iPod

    Has anyone else noticed a *slight* (like, pixel or two) bit of lag when scrolling or swiping on the HTC Incredible? I notice on the iPod touch and iPhone that sliding occurs instantly, but on both mine and my friend's HTC Inc's any slide-like motion has a fraction of a second of lag before it...

    Help Dialer Auto-Screen Off

    Is there a setting anywhere to shut this off or edit it? Sometimes when its up to my ear it won't always go off, so my chin will bump the End Call button, other times if I pull it away the screen won't come back on. It's really annoying. I tried looking in the market for applications that...

    Help Keypad or Compact Qwerty advance cursor

    Is there a shortcut to quick-advance when in keypad or compact qwerty mode? On other implementations of this there is usually a key that makes it so you can quickly press the same key again and input that letter without it thinking you're double-pressing it and trying to cycle. i.e. aaaaaa...

    Help Landscape Keyboard Lag

    When typing really fast in Landscape mode on my HTC Incredible I am noticing that the default HTC Incredible keyboard misses about 30% of my keystrokes. This is annoying, especially since I type faster in landscape than in portrait, yet the faster I type, the more keystrokes get missed. Missed...

    Help Gmail From Address Workaround

    I currently have 4 GMail accounts syncing and to alleviate the inability to select a FROM address when Sharing, I was curious if the following workaround would be taxing on the battery: * Set up an HTC Mail IMAP account for each of the four GMail accounts * Set each of those four to manual...

    Help Weather Animations

    My weather animations are randomly not working. I used to get the weather animation on the home screen when I unlocked, but I don't anymore. For awhile, I would get it every time I opened the weather app itself, but I don't even get that anymore (though if I could at least get this back I'd...

    Help Default Email For Sharing

    Is there a way to set the default email used for Sharing or am I missing a way to change it while already in Share->Gmail? It seems to just use the last email box you looked at, which is annoying, I'd rather be able to choose the email address to use once I'm already there. If it helps...

    Help ALT or Symbol Key Functionality

    Is there a way to change the way the ALT/Symbol key works so that it doesn't change the keyboard layout and instead just let's you press it before pressing a key on the current layout and it will input the number/symbol that is in gray on the key? I find it jarring when the keyboard look...
