I noticed in another thread that there is "Activation of Color Trackball"

How do I install the trackball so when the update comes it will have color?!?!?!



Just install it like any other app, I used Astro from the market to install my trackball.

Oh really...? I adb pushed mine to the system folder so I wouldn't accidentally uninstall it.

I'm quitting the forums if VZW keeps us in the dark any longer....

I bought this phone and it's already obsolete after the 2.1 OTA

Way to go Verizon

I think you have officially used every complaint you can possibly come up with about an update, CK. Prove me wrong. :)
In all seriousness Hook...

I just heard that they are leaving out the black send button in the native SMS/MMS app. This kind of thing makes me angry.

I mean if it's already coded into 2.2 why do they leave it out?

I want to full Google experience that was promised to me. Not the watered down version Moto and VZW are giving us.

This is an injustice and I payed good money for this phone. Jipping us out of the black send button is not the way to do business Verizon.

In all seriousness Ive been hearing rumors that they are leaving off the black colored send button in the native messaging app.

Ill be pretty upset if thats true. leaving off features is typical of VZW.

I think I saw this the first time you posted it.:)

Are you trying to play with my mind, CK? I had to look to make sure I wasn't losing it.:icon_eek:

Didn't think I posted it. I had to shut down real quick and never checked.

Apologies for the double post : )

No apology necessary. I kind of thought you were a little young though for "senior moments."

OK, back to this very serious topic. Sorry for the interruption.

You mean you didn't use 1/8th drill bit to make a hole to install?

astro kept force closing on me when I tried using it to install the trackball.

You have to edit permissions and rename the trackball...

I'm thinking of making a Rescue Squad guide.

Since the 2.2 update has been delayed for so long.....I gave up and went back to my old Razr... I am too tired of being so stressed out all the time waiting 3 months or less for these free OS updates...it's RIDICULOUS!

Now I can finally have peace in my life and never worry about these pesky updates every few months....ever AGAIN!!

It's a joke...someone asked some posts back how to install the trackball to get the most out of the experience. We're still talking droids.
