I normally use Swype but I decided to try out the stock keyboard. I kind of like it but I really can't stand the keyboard sounds it comes with. I replaced the sounds with the keyboard clicks on WP7 and now I don't get any sounds unless I repeatedly hit keys, so basically never. Is there any app or anything that fixes this issue?

You may have to replace the keyboard app, PM Yay 4 Juggs, and see if he can help, he's good with thibgs like that.

So a friend of mine just got a hold of a droid eris because her droid busted and it is having issues with constantly being in roaming on sprints network.
Is this a common issue, is there any fix for it? verizon rep had no idea and couldn't help.
Did you have her try *228?
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
yea that was the first thing i told her to try, it didn't work. From what she said it sounds like it didn't even go through as a working working.
I don't know what else to try... factory reset?
If you haven't rooted that phone for them you need to, and load the Xtsense ROM. It makes that phone rock pretty good.
I loaded it on for my wife (she wanted to keep the Sense options and look). It has yet to lag doing anything.
Good luck

I got a reply from a mod on the moto forums regarding the unlocking of the bootloader
Here it is
Nope no Motorola phones have unlocked bootloader solutions at this time. Motorola XOOM tablet is the only device currently. As providers allow certain devices will get the capability enabled.
Oh fun.....so ya if there is anything i can do to start helping devs get us a fully functional unlocked bootloader ...plz let me know...cause it doesnt sound like moto is gonna help us out anytime soon

It's not like I didn't see that coming. lol
Can we be clear..the bootloader has been unlocked on the photon ..but it breaks wimax 4g to be unlocked
So if you do not use wimax or have wimax in your area...unlock
Oddly with the way wimax vs lte is going and wimax coverage area to loose just one thing,wimax to unlock is looking less an issue.....do I want my wimax...yes
..but i can unlock if need..but i do want both

You are quite correct.
But from my point of view, that does not constitute "unlocked" since it broke something we know about, and there's always the possibility it broke something else we don't know about (but not likely).
I don't consider the Photon to be unlocked since I travel a lot and want all the standard features to work wherever I go.
Just saying ...
Borked unlocked
I have never had 4g til bout a month ago..i get it at my house...my high speed internet crash for couple days...i need high speed for work....my photon saved the days!! Thankfully for teathering
So ya..i loved how much custom roms and kernals improved my evo..honestly without them i would of went back to the iphone
I love this phone but i feel it could do so much more....but not at the risk of loosing important features like 4g
A unlocked bootloader...i think its worth a bounty.... lets get it started!!!

[Q] Does amaze not show "sync" with Google through service and/or Wi-Fi bars?
So I don't consider myself a true noob but I can't figure this out and nobody at t mobile could answer this...
On my N1 (both when rooted and stock) the service bars and wi-fi indicator in the status bar would change colors based on whether or not the phone was able to sync with Google.
Does the Amaze not do this?
I really don't care much if not but it's just strange to see my bars and wi-fi in white and not green (or some other color once this bad boy is running a custom rom)

It doesn't show as it has custom firmware from HTC.
It will show when you install vanilla gingerbread or custom roms.

Great to know man...thank you! I'm relieved that it's not defective or anything.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
I noticed that too.
I don't really understand why HTC removed it. It doesn't improve performance and it actually looks better. But for some reason, they consciously decided to go in and remove it.
One of life's great mysteries...
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
So I've has this ongoing issue and it never really bugged me until today, and want to see if anyone has any ideas. Sometimes (more often then not) I am unable to activate 4g on my photon. It simply refuses to start the radio whether its done via widget on home screen or settings. The 4g icon will flash for a half second then goes away. The only way to fix is to either kill all tasks (including system tasks using systempanel) or a phone shut down and reboot. Now, I understand it might be an app interfering with it, but I don't know what it would be. I am rooted stock, and i do have roam control, although this did happen to me before I got roam control I believe.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Do you tether with it? I get the same thing whenever I tether with 4g. Usually a reboot also does the trick for me too.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I do Tether but not regularly. Its not because wifi tether is just installed at all is it?
Sent from my MB855 using Tapatalk
I have the exact same 4g radio issue. I do have wifi tether installed but rarely use it. Happens to me every few days and rebooting is the only thing that had worked for me. I've tried clearing out ram but I usually end up having to reboot to fix it. Very annoying!
{edit} I'm on stock 198_6 rooted.

This might sound crazy but I had the same issue. Mine was the otterbox commuter case was sticking to the power button a bit and powering off my phone and rebooting. Did you put a new case or something on it?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Dont use a case. Updated to 1.7 hopefully it stops
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
i kno its a pain in the a$$ but sometimes running an ruu back to stock and then rerooting the phone helps... worst case.. i did that when my evo 3d kept acting up like that.. and it helped...
Happened again today. Super annoying. If it happens again im going to sprint and demanding a new one

Try wiping everything including factory reset then reflash rom.
I did do that. Idk what the problem could be

Mine does this as well. I talked to HTC and they said if you don't LTE in your area, Sprint LTE that is but have Verizon LTE, your phone may be trying to latch on to the Verizon LTE, and since it can't quite connect it attempt to push more power to the LTE antenna to get it to connect, in doing so, it eventually pushes it pass a threshold and causes the phone to reboot. Apparently the issues seems to be popular in areas where there is no Sprint LTE and other LTE available. Sounds like a software issue on HTC's end, that will hopefully get fixed.
For now, you can try and go a *#*#4636#*#* and change your network to CDMA Only or EVDO Only and see if that keeps it from rebooting. (when you change to CDMA only, make a call right away otherwise you might not get incoming calls or texts)
I dont make many calls but the few calls i usually do make or receive are important and i would hate having to switch that. U think it will work if i turn off mobile network in the drop down settings???
Im in los angeles btw and i think verizon lte is live here
