HTC Droid Eris :: Way To Change "features"?
Nov 15, 2009
1) In the Phone app. Above (and extending behind the keypad) is a list of your contacts. Contacts which have no First or Last Name" but which do have a company name, just show up as "Unknown" with a phone number. The obvious thing would be to show the Company name if there is no personal name. I believe the "People" app does this correctly. Anyone else notice?
2) The browser hides the notifications bar. So if I get an email I have to back out of the browser to find it. Am I missing something?
3) When using the "messages" app to send SMS, if you use the landscape keyboard, you can not see the "send" button, so you are forced to hide the keyboard before you can send a message. Feature or bug?
4) When opening the browser (presumably if it is not still being kept open) there is a several second (feels longer) delay where you stare at a white screen. The device then says "retrieving sign in details". Then, finally, loads the page. What's up with that?

I was wondering if there was a compiled list of the secret menu/featre codes that some ppl have found. I remember using a couple to get into menus to adjust some stuff, but forget what they were. If there isn't, then this post can serve as a place to start it !
I'll get it started with the one OR TWO codes I DO remember:
Checkin Service:
Checks for Rolling Updates
dial *#*#24324546#*#* (*#*#checkin#*#*)
Field Test Mode:
Shows diagnostic stuff and usage statistics
dial *#*#4636#*#*
Keep it rolling, and I'll edit this post to keep everthing @ the top... maybe even sticky it if it becomes useful!

I disabled it, and the phone performs the way it should. Fast, no lag anywhere. Stable. I am sad. To get a good phone, I have to turn it into a Droid? So is there a comprehensive list of the Sense features?

I woke up after a nap this afternoon (you know, after coloring but before recess ) ... and i had received a text and i went to reply and my auto correct didnt know the word 'you' 'eat' and a few others and i am sure there are many more i will find. i do not know how to fix it. i guess i will just have to work through it and add the words it doesnt know.
But also if i type 'lol' then by default 'LOL' will come up if i press space unless i manually go up and select 'lol' in the little word list predict thing <--yes, that is the actual HTC given name , this is also the case for many other words and if i add the word to the dictionary it still might not use it automatically. even if i spell it right and it is in the list it may use another word when i press space.

Is there an app for the droid eris that allows one to point the camera at a landscape and have identifying information about the various features such as mountains, etc., appear as an overlay?

Is it possible to add or change the existing applications?
For example, I would like to add a new floating window following the current people when I open the contact manager.
I just want to change it a little bit. And I don't want to rewrite all the features of contact manager.
Is it possible to do this?
As I understanding, the view of the contact manager is controlled by the activities of the "contact manager" application. How can my application react when the user opening the contact manager?

Just got root today thanks to the great work everyone did to get it working for those who installed the leak. I've been trying a number of roms, but can't get any of them to connect to my work exchange account which is a dealbreaker for me. I thought 2.1 added the password unlock feature, but all the roms are saying "Exchange ActiveSync server requires security features your phone does not support" and I believe they've all been 2.1. What am I doing wrong?

I know this is possible on the Nexus One and I was wondering if it is on the Droid Eris. It would be the coolest thing to have like a green trackball

What are some of your favorite features about this phone? Aside from the screen and speed, for me it might have to be the file sharing appplication (as seen in the mobileburn video review pt.3)...I have gotten so sick of having to email pictures I take to my computer, so just being able to send em through the app over.

I really hate the HTC slide down lock screen, It always answers calls in my pocket. Is there a way to get rid of the HTC slide down lock screen and use the default android lock screen that you slide to the side. I'v seen apps like Lockbot and WidgetLocker, but you still have to use the HTC slide down lock screen when answering calls.

Looking for a way to change the lock screen. If there is an app for that will it change or get rid of the pattern lock? The pattern lock drives me nuts. I would like a left to right slide and a keypad would be nice.

Is there a way to change the sensitivity of the trackball? I know this was a feature on my BB, but I have not seen a way to do it on the Eris.

I just got the eris a couple weeks ago, and then the trackball died so verizon sent me a new one. Now on the new phone when I try to change my homescreen wallpaper, it always wants to zoom in on the image. I'm not sure how to explain it, but it will let me use the full width, but not the full length while looking at the phone with the buttons on the bottom. So I have an image that is 320x480, and it wants to crop it down to 200x200 for example. It zooms in and makes it a square, instead of a rectangle like the screen is. I just want the wallpaper to be what it looks like when the image first opens from the photo album app. But as soon as I try to make it a wallpaper it wants to zoom in and make the photo look dumb.

So i just got off the phone with a customer service rep from Verizon and was telling them about my issues because i'm on my 3rd replacement phone, and the 3rd one that just got sent out today is even worser then the ones i had to have replace, i told the rep that i wanted a new model phone, and all they could tell me was that well we'll have to just replace it with the same model, and if you're wanting to get a new model phone you would have to pay for it.How are some of you members getting the Moto Droid without any charges?? Do you guys just get nice reps? Because the rep i got was just a D*ck he wouldn't listen to what i was trying to say and kept cutting me off.

I recently did a hard reset of my phone and it really cleaned things up and made things run faster (and I got rid of a bunch of apps I never really used.) I did notice that the calendar functions differently now. I used to be able to call up an individual day and see scheduled appointments, then I could swipe left or right on that day to go to the next day or previous day. You still can scroll through time that way in the full month display by swiping up and down but that functionality seems to be gone now for day views. Anyone else notice that change?

What apps are there in which you can change the "home slider" when you unlock your phone. My default gray bar with the time and "verizon wireless" on it is not so easy going on the eyes, i wish to change that look.

when I first got the phone I changed my wall paper to a picture I had taken, I got sick of that pic so I just made it one of the defualt wallpapers that come on the phone. Well I found a new pic I want to make my wallpaper so I go to albums find the picture hit set as home wallpaper and change it, but when it says it was set as my wallpaper I go to look and its still the default one i set awhile ago.
