Steamy window is great haha. You are welcome bro. Glad you got something that worked. Try out Moto X Mayhem for another great app, you will have to download from browser as it isn't in market, but it is my favorite game right now.

Probably a too many apps problem if you have more than 100 on your phone.

Use astro and find it in SDcard\downloads Then use the app manager in Astro to install it.

no, we both got these phones 5 days ago.. i rooted and put fresh's 6.b, and apps2sd on both phones. i put about 5 apps on her phone and a gillion on mine. no probs till i took her phone in to port her old phone# from uscc to her new hero.. i think the rep did something screwey to her phone. would it hurt if i did a nandroid backup, then reflashed 6.b? i just want her phone to b "fresh" like mine!! thanks..

If you were rooted and running A2SD2 make sure the SD card wasn't unmounted in settings. If it was just pull it out and put it back in. If she is rooted you can always nandroid restore, and you can reflash, but I think the sd may be unmounted from the phone. It is under settings -> Sd & Phone storage. If unmount is not able to be done then you should pull out and put back in. Should work.

I was just digging through some of the boot.img sources and found out that there is actually a way to soft reset our devices. It's a little bit of a crazy key combo for a soft reset but I know when I first got my phone I was annoyed with having to shut it down and then turn it back on in order to reboot it.

To soft reset your device you need to hold Send + Menu + End. I found it easiest to turn it upside down and hold Menu + Send with one thumb and then hit End with the other.

I wish i had a reason to try this out right now. Actually, scratch that. Trying it now.

Edit: It worked. That doesn't, however, lessen the impact of how ridiculous that key combo actually is.

Thanks hit.

Achievement unlocked.

You can also put Root Manager on the phone, you can soft reset,wipe data, remove system apps among other stuff. AWESOME app.
