I have not rooted my Fascinate. First, I have downloaded more than a few third-party apps though, I dont want them on my phone anymore. Any help?

Second, I had my phone on medium volume and my dad called me three times. I had my phone in my hand wating for the call. It never came through. Then he texted me. Still didn't come through. Any help?

Third, sometimes my screen won't go off, I press the button like five times, and was still on. Held it down for like twenty seconds, still was on. Then I left it alone for about a minute, and then it finaly shut off after I tried it again. Then next time I looked at it I tried to turn it on and it wouldn't turn on. Very frusturating. Please let me know what you think I should do. I do not want to do a hard reset.

go to settings > applications > manage applications and you can uninstall what you don't want from there.

what was your signal like? This has happened to me before. I won't have any "missed calls" but a VM will come through. I blame the signal cause I really don't know what else would cause it.

This happens to me as well. I think it's a bug. Try opening your app drawer and then closing out of it and see if it will then let you dim the screen. That usually works for me.

Okay, well I did a factory reset.

Does anybody have any ideas on how to get and efficient charge? When I charge it and it isn't full, the battery usually goes down 5 or 6 percent. Any help?

when you charge it, the phone may read 98 or 99 percent only. If you MUST have it go to 100%, I've found that you can unplug it, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in. This will usually make it go to 100%.

What I mean is while its still plugged in, it goes down.

hmmm...


Are you using the OEM charger and cable? Are you plugged into a computer or the wall?

If you are using the OEM cable and charger and you're in the wall and it's STILL going down, there's likely something wrong with your battery, phone, or both.

Take it back to Verizon and show them.
