Is the volume htc or windows. I don't know if I installed anything that broke it but I only have the funky old school windows volume control

It's htc, not windows. You've got an old dll or something going on.

ramblings from a stock sprint 6.1 user to this new flash..

i like to keep it simple.. but if i remove the calendar from the tabs. i get the ugly windows calendar..

to some extent with the weather tab.. i take it out and i cant touch the sun or moon in the center of the home page to go to the weather.. i am guessing that is part of the sense ui..

figured that out.. and in about 5hrs. i have installed and backed up all my old contacts and texts and blah blah.. thx pim.

still learning the 6.5 thing.. i did figure out that you can put the task manager on the today screen..

what i think is stupid.. that sprint missed.. x to kill a program setting.. i have looked hard.. i know and have a tab open cab to fix it, but why? several things like calculator dont have the option to exit.. you just close them and they run in the background.. duh.

x to close kinda makes task manager not so important.. sorry opera! dont know how you get away with it..

but really, enough cool stuff was added to make it worth the upgrade.. wondering about battery life with the location tab running..

btw, this is a upgrade for the touchpro 2. why is a soft button for phone over the hard button for the phone? duh..

and to anyone that reads this.. you dont have to unlock or relock the phone to do it.. many links to sites that have the download fast.. locked or unlock sim has nothing to do with this.. read the first post!

beers

I have read nearly all 70+ pages...and no one (I can find) has answered the one question someone else asked...and what I want an answer to:

In the screen shots...there are the three big 'buttons' on the home screen (youtube, sprint music, and something else I believe) Are those locked in...or can they be changed to other quick launch programs?

And secondly...can they be simply 'turned off' so i can see more of 'my calendar' on the home screen like I can in 6.1?

I value the home screen greatly...and if i have to stare at a Sprint Music (and the two others) for now on...that's a deal breaker.

Thanks!

No they are not locked in. Tap menu remove quick links and choose the ones you want to remove. Unfortunately (for you) you can't "turn them off". There are however several mods available for the quicklinks on the home tab. Maybe you would like one of them.

They can be changed to anything you want, from a contact, to a bookmark, to a different program. They cannot be tured off though by default, but if you install a mod such as cookie monster's home screen or maxmanila you can get many more home screen options such as that ability.
