Anyone had any problems with the Droid Eris?

Okay so Im hopefully getting this phone soon, but I want to know if anyone has been experiencing any problems with this phone so I dont wind up returning it 5 times like I have with my dreaded touch pro (that I hate).
And also, Will this phone be getting Android 2.0??

Re: Anyone had any problems with the Droid Eris?

The only problems I've had are some occasional slowdowns (but given the usage I put this thing through, I'll allow it...), and battery isn't the greatest.. (again due to lots of usage and online convergence).

Over all, I'm glad I got a phone with Sense UI.

Re: Anyone had any problems with the Droid Eris?

only problem i had was with a few apps that needed to be "forced" closed. that doesnt necessarily mean its the Eris, it could be the app itself.

Re: Anyone had any problems with the Droid Eris?

I think the only issue I have with it is battery needs to be a little larger.

I can't figure out how to get twitter to turn off sync. I can turn off flicker and facebook but not twitter. The most I can do is set it to every day update.

Re: Anyone had any problems with the Droid Eris?

I've noticed an increase in FORCE CLOSES for apps that originally were working fine. I"m wondering if downloading lot of apps, testing them and removing them has left 'residue' and the phone needs to be cleaned up. Ina windows world, that would require registry cleanup and possible defrag (yes, flash RAM gets fragmented). But in a Android/linus world, I have no idea if this is an issue or not.

your not in a windows world anymore (thank God) if i were you i would go to settings>manage applications and clear the cache and/or data of the apps that are messing up. bear in mind you might lose important data related to the apps in which you clear the caches of
