Look under Locale & Text > Android Keyboard and make sure Quick Fixes and Show Suggestions is selected

2. I did pay for (1.99 + tax) and download lock 2.0 and the only thing it did was give me a cool look skin and a slider bar to use in order to unlock. I did email the devolper to see if something went wrong because according to the listing it should give me the option to set a password lock amoung other things. Any ideas on what might have gone wrong with this program??

3. I also noticed a lot of programs running in the back ground. When I bought the phone from best buy they recommended advance task killer to help manage programs running in the back ground on all the time. Has anyone had any experince with this program or would recommend it or another?? I did d/l it and it seems to work fine just not sure if its the best one out there.

I use advanced task killer. To each his own really. I like how it's easy to add programs to the ignore list, it starts up on power up and save settings (there was one that didn't do this and drove me crazy!) You can also select what the default action whenever you click on the program while in the task killer. I like having the icon in the top notification bar so it's always there. Best of all, it's free

(before i d/l advance task killer I click on music icon and it started to play some of my mp3's that I loaded from my old phone, but the problem was there was not way to turn it off....the only thing i could do was pause the song but not shut off the music. I was able to once i d/l advance task killer)...is there some trick to turning off music once you start to play it??

I would suggest adding a music widget to one of your screens. This gives you the option of starting stopping music quickly without having to kill it with advanced task killer. There is a widget that came with the phone.

Is there anyway for me to see what programs are running in the back ground with out having to run something like advance task killer??

Not to my knowledge

Is there anyway to spice up my text page, and emial page? I mean when i click on message's or email is just brings up a plain black boring screen that has the names of my email accounts or text......also is there anyway to filter my text messages by date vs by who which is what it seems is default for the phone.

Personally, I use chompsms. You can customize everything till your hearts content. There is also handcent. When I tried it, there was a bug that drained the battery in less than an hour so I uninstalled it. That may be fixed now and that could be another option.

I know some of the things i listed above might seem small and pety, but I paid for the phone and really want this phone to work out however I want to be able to enjoy all the creature comforts that I have had on most of my previous phones.

Absolutely! That's the great thing about this site

So thanks again for any help and feedback
