I recently upgraded to another device - and was curious if anyone would be interested in my Eris. It worked great until the day I retired it. I was a longtime lurker on this forum and developed my love for modding and developing because of this forum and some of the devs that were involved. It is rooted and in good shape.
I proudly just released my first app in the Android Market:

PM me if you'd be interested in the Eris.

Just want to say thanks to all the devs for making me love my Eris again was about to throw it out a window till I found XDA. I've gone through a couple of roms so far and love tazzginger the best so far. Will be donating later this week thanks for everything. Also would of posted in tazzs thread but this is my first post
Sent from my Ginger Tazz using XDA App
I second this post. Since I bought my Eris last May, I've really grown to love Android and the features that are tied in with so many of Google's services. That being said, I was starting to get a little tired of looking at the same-old, same-old HTC Sense and frustrated that Verizon discontinued the phone 2 months after I bought it and HTC stopped updating us after a wildly-delayed 2.1.
As the Verizon iPhone launch grew closer, even though I had no desire to leave Android, I was starting to get a little iLust in me. That's when I knew it was time to renew my commitment to the loveable little Droid, but to do so, I would have to turn to the mod community for help.
So about a month ago, I nervously flashed my first ROM, Nonseniskal v16.1. After a few weeks, I found and flashed GSB. It continually amazes me how this community works endlessly to keep bringing the newest Android OSes and new features to a device that everyone else has long counted out of the game.
The people of XDA and the rest of the Android mod community is what Android is really all about. Thank you all.
Welcome to rooting and the forum, both of you!
Thanks to all devs. i had eris for more then a year never rooted till like last week im running GSB v1.9 and wow its a whole new phone this will hold me over till november upgrade thanks again xda and devs
Hiyas!
Gonna jump aboard this thread. I am a carbon copy of the comments above.
I have had my ERIS from nearly the day it hit the main stream Verizon market. As my wife and children began to catch and pass me with all the new gear I still loved my phone. It's the Right Stuff! Slim, not to big or little, trackball for easy use and amazingly it's an excellent phone. I've had a few. AT 62 I had the first ones, the big "Brick"s".
Not like a lot of "old folks" I love this stuff. I'm a gamer and build my own rigs. As my ERIS was being left for dead I started to read here and other forums on rooting. A month ago it started. Once rooted, I began changing ROMs like my socks eventually settling on the KAOSFroyo but with GO Launcher EX which I believe to be the best of the best.
Last night was Gingerbread (Go Launcher EX) I love it! This is truly the "Little Phone That Could".
Thanks Devs, the support folks, and all the informational posters here. I am not in any hurry to replace the ERIS....it fits me
Regards and Thanks,
Dennis
I am also saying thanks! You guys are awesome and inspiring!!!
I would also like to chime and say thanks to zach.xtr! xtrSense has been on my Eris since the day I rooted, and I haven't even had the urge to try another ROM. I'll be flashing 5.0 tonight - really excited that the 50% without signal bug is fixed! I can now turn my phone on/off without doing the airplane mode trick!
According to several members that have contacted DELL, the official Honeycomb OTA is supposed to roll out within 48 hours.
We'd love to have someone there w/ HC experience to help us tweak things out and get it flashed!

Hello fellow xda members,
I know many devs and community members are busy enjoying and developing for many new shiny phones and tablet, but today i turn and ask for your help.
There is a small community of DELL Streak 7 owners along with ONE DEV who are trying to bring some life and a lot of improvements into our small and pitiful tablet running Tegra2.
Our current Honeycomb 3.2 build is running off the XOOM dump. We have some features and errors that of course, because there is no native dump for the streak, are having problems fixing.
I come asking as a poor newb, because i really tried to learn how to learn to modify ROMs and i couldn't do it, for your support.
Our one and only dev right now is DJ_Steve (Click here for profile), who has done and continues to do a freaking amazing job. He has achieved what many thought was not possible; making honeycomb work for our small tablet.
If any of you guys out there have any time and ability to spare, we would REALLY appreciate your support and expertise.
DELL has said they would release a HC update, but as we know, so has every other android manufacturer; most lie.
So, I come representing many, and humbly ask, will you help us out?
If you feel as though you can, please do not hesitate to contact DJ_Steve or visit our small part of paradise, as our link is below.
******7/29 UPDATE*********
We would truly really appreciate the support of any and all developers who can contribute in any possible way.
If it's of any incentive, you can now get the DELL Streak 7 @ Staples for $200+Tax after you apply this $100 coupon:

Thank you for your time & Best Regards,

Up again. We now have an additional dev onboard as well as some members who've started learning android rom compiling!
Please don't hesitate to post on our forums or contact me or dj_steve if you can help out
would be nice to get more devs working on the streak7. I would be happy if one could get gingerbread running on it.
I just wanted to thank everyone for all their help and all the developers here for extending the life my Eris WAY past what Verizon was willing to support. Thanks to you guys, I've been running the latest version of Gingerbread and enjoying my Eris. My upgrade time is finally here and I have purchased a Droid Bionic. I will be moving there for all my rooting needs. Yes that means I have an Eris that isn't doing anything at the moment. I'll likely use TheROM to make it into an MP3 player/Wifi Analyzer. If not, I might be willing to give it to a developer who plans to continue developing for the Eris. Let me know if you're interested in it and we'll see. Thanks again everybody!
I upgraded to the LTE Galaxy Nexus today and I wanted to thank all of the devs for keeping my little Eris chugging along I will not forsake this forum and will continue to flash ROMs (especially ICS ROMs) on my Eris. And I also wanted to thank all of the nice people here in the forum, you guys rock :3
Congrats on the purchase. I too upgraded to the GNEX and after playing with it for a bit Im confident this and the one I got for my girlfriend as well will serve us well for the next 2 years??
We both purchased the Eris when it launched but she couldnt deal with it being slow so I acquired hers and had one to use and one to test. Im running stock Sense on one and Nonsensikal on the other one. I have no intentions of putting either out to pasture.
Hi,
I have been working as an Android developer since many years, and have recently switched to full time freelance development.
It has not been much time since I joined xda. I landed here while looking for some opportunities and thought of registering here.
Looking forward to connect with you guys, at the same time getting some work too.
Thanks to all
