yes I have already done the *2 thing. Sprint is all screweed up and they say that I am not the owner of my account and can't make any changes. So I can't get them to get me a prl update. I can go online and see my account and am definately the owner of the account but they have the phone number assigned to someone else in their system I guess. My signal is so bad I keep getting disconnected everytime. So I searched the forums on how to update my prl but prl is too short of a term to get any results back on it.

So I can't rememember the code or the program to check the prl version. I know once I find the version I can probably download it.

My screen seems washed out in anything but a direct perpendicular point of view. Can someone confirm this is normal or is my screen bad? Thanks.

Screen setting at about 50%.

I found the screen on the 6700 and 6800 are better. This has a very shallow view angle. Also It would be very bad at only 50%. I have to use mine at 80%

This is my 3rd day of owning this device and today I lost all messaging capabilities. I was unable to connect to my exchange server as well. Everything else ran fine during this, including my data connection. After a hard reset, problem resolved.

I was playing with the camera last night and somehow I managed to hang it. I have the camera button mapped to Voice command. And wasn't sure what would happen if I pushed it while camera was up (full screen). It did trigger Voice Command. But then it was hung. I really don't care about the camera but I was curious how good/bad it was.

I'm not complaining overall I love the phone. Rock Solid since I shut off most HTC Goodies. Try Navigating with iGuidance and make several calls via Voice Command over BT and see how your phone holds together.

I can't find where I read it, but a few folks mentioned they can't use the red hangup button if the screen goes black during a call. Mine seems to work fine.

assuming you're not syncing with Exchange, you can stop this by turning off time synchronization in the phone settings:

menu>options>services>time synchronization

the downside is that you'll have to manually keep your clock set.

or just wait for a newer version of treo windows to come out

Nothing for nothing

are we to expect your going to keep telling us that you got rid of the touch every few days now like you have been doing?

We get it.

If you look at the Cube configuration... the IE button is set to go to \Windows\SPCS_PIE.lnk and not just IE.

Changing the path should resolve this issue.

Ha ha your loss. I am really liking my touch now. The extra memory is awesome to have. It is very stable. About the only thing I have noticed is that it takes a second to bring up the various keyboards. Does anybody else have that problem? It might be that I have phatware calligrapher installed.

Soft reset works to bring it back. Other than the voice command no confirmation issue, this is the only issue so far.
I got it you crossed somebody at sprint and so they send you all the dudd units!

New Poblem: After using phone function and hanging up, I am unable to access the start menu from the top toolbar. The toolbar which normally says "start" would then say "phone'and would remain frozen and unresponsive to anything except a soft reset. It has happened 6 times now and is beggining to worry me.

I also seems that the overall speed has greatly decreased compared to when I used it for the first few days.

I haven't seen this at all, nor has anyone else reported this. Do you have any third party apps installed?

Every device I've owned has done this, particularly after adding several 3rd party apps, and especially if those apps use today screen plug ins. I had to do a hard reset the other night & have been minimalistic in the programs I've installed. It's very zippy now.

I do have more than ten 3rd party programs installed. I changed the Touch today screen with the 4 tab color version. I also have pocket sportscenter installed.
