About LinkBacksI have a Droid Eris that is stuck in safe mode, most likely because the track ball is broken/dirty. I'm thinking about sending it in via the Verizon Trade In program.
They only ask: Does it power up? Does the Display Work? Is the display cracked?
It's Yes, Yes, No. However under the does it power up it has:
All devices should be able to power up with no functional problems. Handset devices should be able to dial, connect, and allow a conversation to be spoken and heard clearly.
I guess since it's in safe mode that's a no go? Has anyone used this to turn in their Eris for some $? I've seen on ebay, someone's auction didn't even go for the minimu, which is $11. Verizon will give $20.

05-22-2011 04:17 PMHave you tried to partially plug in your usb cable? A lot of times, that will get the track ball to work. There is also a "trackball-less" recovery, but I dont know if you need the track ball to install the new recovery. You should be able to ADB push it to your phone though.
I touched Lord Stanley's Cup on 1/2/11.

05-22-2011 04:26 PMI'll try plugging it in half way while booting it up and see what happens. Thanks for the tip.
If I kept it, it would just be a backup phone; I'm thinking I just want to get rid of it. If I can get $20, that's a plus. I'll probably just send it in, if they say "no value" after getting it.. oh well. -

05-23-2011 07:31 AMRight now a working Eris, with no screen cracks is fetching $0 in the Verizon trade-in program.
So you should just keep it.
EDIT: I did this last week and it came back $0. Now it is $20! Cool!
