Hi folks, My dog had surgery a short bit ago and we've been having a hell of a time getting her to leave it alone. I need to be able to watch her pretty much 24/7 for the next week. To this end, I set up a webcam on ustream which lets me watch her from my work computer. However as I have...

Mostly just hoping to sharpen and clarify the picture a bit. It's a shot of my hometown from the top of a nearby mountain. Probably pretty blah for most folks, but it's pretty cool to me. Not expecting a miracle from the phone, I'm just wondering if there's any tips on ways I can improve the...

Some warmth is actually normal. It's caused by any activity that draws a massive amount of power. This can be a highly CPU intensive task or a highly data intensive task. Your signal strength can relate to this also. If you're trying to run data and have a crappy signal it's going to draw a...

Anyone have any advice for taking a better shot of this? I played with several different exposure and iso values and the camera was perfectly stationary during the photo (I made a little stand out of rocks...). Is this kind of shot just beyond the capability of our phones or is there some...

Got mine on release day, still waiting. Supposedly they placed the order a little over 2 weeks ago (The guys at our local store didn't receive ANY information about the phone launch).

Yeah you should be able to leave it plugged in permanently without any problems. You will probably get some phantom power wasted just like all electronics left plugged in, but it's nickels per month...

Yo. How am I gonna hide a storm trooper?

You can manually set the ISO higher. This will allow the camera to capture a brighter picture while keeping the shutter open as short as possible. Unfortunately it also creates additional noise in the photo. Since our camera is still just a moderately better cell phone sensor, it still uses...

Can't hurt for him to try, sometimes companies will actually help customers out just for the goodwill and PR. I believe Nokia can replace the glass for about $200 if I'm remembering right. Not cheap but better than a new phone! And bigkevbosky, he didn't say what Iphone he has.... maybe he...

It is a difficult thing to confirm, but yes, many users have reported that the battery indicator would do weird things. Some had hours of battery left at 0%, others would take 2 hours to charge 2%, etc. This is one of the reasons folks have recommended calibrating the battery by a full drain...

Yes and no. My battery life first day was actually somewhat decent. The next 2 it was **** (less than 6 hours off a charge). I turned off Drive and removed the Crackle app, then let the phone do an entire full drain followed by a full (12 hour) charge. During the charge it actually got stuck...

I don't remember when i got the update, but I have 65% battery left after 34 hours off charge. Pretty light usage but 4 push accounts going. This phone started out with terrible battery life and over the past 3 weeks has gotten just better and better and better.

They're all gorilla glass, it just takes the right pressure or an imperceptible defect in the glass to shatter it. Gorilla Glass isn't unbreakable, it's just significantly less likely to break. Unfortunately less likely means it can still break on it's first drop. Just today one of my...

This is normal. If it bothers you, you can turn down the sensitivity in settings. It's not even unusual. My friend's Droid Razor does it too, as did my old Samsung Galaxy.

**** my still store gives me "They're trying to find out how they're supposed to handle the orders" -.- I don't mind waiting, but holy christ someone there needs to figure **** out.
