In the box, it came with some sort of screen protector. Any1 have any idea how it adheres on? It doesnt seem to have a backing to peel off. Maybe you wet it? lol

Thanks Ahead.

FYI, at 1st I was not liking the phone but now that I used it 4 a few hoyrs..I totally dig it. Like all new gadgets, just takes some getting use to. Overall its very small compared to a 3 G...but still large enough to hold.

yeah, believe it or not there is a thin liner that peels off of the protector.. as long as you keep it a habbit to only use the stylus you really dont need the protector cause to me it sorta make the screen look a little crappy.. just refrain from using pens and what not.. only use the stylus.. but then again i have gotten into the habit of using my thumb more than anything.. so i guess thats why ive never needed a protector.. sure i have a big thumb but when you learn to bend it at the right angle, theres no need for a stylus

i love this little bastard.. this is probably the nicest looking phone ive ever had.. i disabled the touchflo just because that was sort of annoying me.. so now its like a tiny pda with a glossy look.. battery life to me is very horrible considering it has that 1340mah battery.. just doesnt seem to be true, but according to a post a read a while back, the more its used the better the battery life gets..

So u are saying its not really needed??..I may try it to see what its like. 1 thing I cant stand about the phone is the big arse clock on the home page. Doesnt look like there is anyway around it. It ruins any background pic IMO. I order a rubber sleeve from boxwave..so we shall see how it looks and affects the operation of the phone. Like yourself, I only used the stylus a bit when loading up my contacts. Now I am comfortable using my thumb. I will try disabling touchflo to see what it is like as well. I read that you can silence a call by simply turning the phone upside down. I think there is a 3rd party app for using the built in acccelerometer in the car...?? If you know of any good software..please post up. Maybe we should start a new thread on that? OH! FYI to all those with this phone...beware of the mini USB...it is abnormally shaped on 1 end from the standard type. I found out the hard way. It will still adapt to the reg style but puts power on the wrong pin. My phone got very warm..even after unplugged from pc. I had to reseat the battery. Why on earth they redesigned the the darn USB is beyond me. LAME.

dont let the odd shaped usb fool you.. basically its regular miniusb with the added audio pins for your headphones.. regular usb cables work for data transfers.. i still use my old motoq usb power adapter for my phone along with my garmin car power adapter for the phone as well.. dont know if they are bad for the phone or not but i use em and they work.. i created a thread of recommended software but like the entire forum everything is still starting off slow.. take care

Not sure why my phone was running warm then. But I figured due to the difffernt shape..that it is not a good thing to mix usb styles.

Do you know how to 86 the big clock??

well to get rid of it all i did was get rid of the touchflo.. sure it looks nice but i just wasnt digging it.. i chose to use the pda look with my own little theme.. got my theme from wm6themes.com and im using that featured darknight one that is displayed.. i dont know, looks awesome on my phone.. enough to make me say "DAYUM" to myself
