OK, i have not read thru the manual so i hope this is a setting im overlooking...
there is a black bar at the lower 3rd of the screen. sometimes it will have something in it, like if i hit the home button to go to the home screen, it will say "phone" in the bar.. is this a glitch, bug or some "feature"?
another example, if i go to the mailbox tab, it will say "inbox" in this bar. it does not go away. i may have done something but i dont know...
ok upon a soft reset (im still installing stuff and had not done a soft reset after this bar appeared) the bar im talking about is the bottom bar that has "phone" and "programs" on either side. so it sems it must have been a glitch. anyone have this happen to them? ill see if i can try to recreate it but would appreciate any feedback...
Marc, I've never had that happen to me. That black bar should always display 2 softkeys & will differ depending on the 3D icon you've chosen.
One thing I would suggest, is going really light on what you install the first few days until you've gotten used to it. It makes it easier when problems arise & you're looking for a 3rd party app to blame. I only bring this up, because I think there's a greater potential for program incompatibility with this phone because of all the 3D & Touchflo stuff that's built in.
normally, even on the mogul, i didnt install any crazy stuff. when this bar happened i had not installed anything. a soft reset has fixed it and it has not messed up again but i have not done anything to it.
so far i have resco registry and explorer, resco photo viewer pro, pocket mechanic, memmaid.
also so far i have moved opera and IE folders to internal storage (IS) as well as the documents, music and photo folder is IS. opened up a few meg on the mem bar...
no no you guys covered the bases well already. id be only rehashing....
i dont like not having a keyboard!!!! i just miss it. i dont know how you guys can use this phone productively without a physical board... man im having to use the stylus all the time.. and when you open up the full qwerty board, all the real estate is eaten up. so i cant see what im typing.. i have to close the board momentairly to make sure im typing the right stuff.. then ope it back up... man hurry up and get here PRO!!!!
LOL I hear ya man... It was REALLY tough for me to go from the Mogul to the Touch for that very reason. On the Touch, I don't think I ever did totally get past it, but on this one the OSK is much easier to use. If you're brain can think in T9, you might try the Phone Keypad SIP. That's the one I finally settled on. Regardless you will be hating life for at least 3-4 weeks.
i used to do T9 on the IBM Simon phone.. thas was back in 1993 and i aint used T9 since!
i like the qwerty board and ill have to get used to it..
8 i tell ya brother, i am NOT upset. i like this device. its cute--its the rebound until the PRO gets here.. it will get me used to the PRO so when it gets here i can jump in with both feet.
i do like the phone. the screen is PSP quality and its smokin'! i like all the extras...
Regardless you will be hating life for at least 3-4 weeks.
Until his Pro gets in. Love to here a comparison between the two. Not that is matters much to me, I really need a keyboard. Heck, I'm banging away at an old 6700 cause I wanted a real upgrade.
