Hi all new here. Wondering if anyone had:

Just got an Apache from Ebay. Was wondering a few things about this.
I just came over from having a blackberry pearl, now Im overwhelmed with options!

First off - Where should I start?
New rom cooking? Tweaks or hacks?

What would be best for me? I like to do alot of web browsing, and its important for me to get notifiers for my email messages.
Is there any way to get them to put this on the 29.99 data plan? My old blackberry was on it.... maybe itll just stay?

Does anyone have the following - back extended battery cover - mine came very scratched

jystick - the rubber on mine is gone with a little plastic snapped off

cradle

Conditions not the greatest but couldnt complain for the price!
So happy!

Start reading through the Apache forum and the software forum. There is a ton of info and my advice is to get to know the operating system on your phone. Understand the basics of adding programs, uninstalling programs, etc. Then start with adding some apps like instant messaging, games, etc.

For browsing check out Opera and Skyfire (both discussed in the Sofware Forum). As far as email goes you have some options depending on what email service you use. You can always check out G-mail.

Sounds like you need to activate your phone. Talk to your carrier about options.

Re: Hi all new here. Wondering if anyone had:

The dpad will probably never be fixed. I think weedahoe had a spare extended battery. Ask him. Start by cooking a ROM. And no you will havbe to use the 45 dollar data plan. The data, might stay, but I doubt it. Try activating it online instead of calling. Cause if you call I can almost asure you they will make you get the 45.

Re: Hi all new here. Wondering if anyone had:

I'm going to be selling a bunch of 6700 stuff soon, just haven't gotten around to it. I've got everything you've listed. The joystick is a part of the housing, requires tearing pretty much the entire phone apart - but that isn't that hard. In the post linked below I stated that I won't be including any USB cables with the cradles, but since then I've realized that I have a couple more than I originally though, so I'll be able to include a USB cable for both and at least one charger.

Yeah Ive got a extended battery, cradle and stylus. Yo used to be aboe to find replacement Dpads on ebay but as has been said already, they go out quick and you have to take the phone apart to replace it. The 67 can be overclocked with was my favorite feature. Here is a huge list of tweaks and reg edits you can do with the device to make it better

On a side note, I wouldnt fix the Dpad or worry about parts and accessories. I would keep it for a new weeks and file an online claim through Asurion and you have a REALLY good chance of getting upgraded to the 6800

The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and tweaks
