You mean StormSlider? Are you using that? I'm kind of apprehensive about paying for apps if I'm not really into them. I know they're only a few $, but it's the principle...I've had a couple where the devs bounce after a few months with nowhere to be found, taking off with a few hundred and disappearing. Since most apps a PIN-specific, if you have to replace your phone (which I did), you can't get a new reg code and you're screwed. It's annoying to say the least, hence the principle.
As for the CNN/ESPN/CB launchers, they're only a couple KB, so they're minimal in that sense.
However, I've noticed with the new low app memory notifier that tells you to shut down apps, a couple are sky high. Like Slacker has been like 15MB in that list, even when it hadn't even been run since the last battery pull. What's up with that? |
stormslider's on v4 now and it's been working brilliantly on my phone plus has auto screen/button locking capabilities...that's all I can say..
as for your news apps, they surely cache data adn that's what might be taking up space... |

Thanks...I'll give the news apps a swing first. I just installed Opera Mini the other day, and I can't paste URLs into the address bar. Has anyone else been able to? |

you and i seem to be the only ones using storm so just a heads up, for opera mini, its just screen tapping all the way...no clicking the screen at all...takes a while to get used to. and click the BB key and then a portion of the screen to zoom in. I've pasted urls with ease on it. |

When I click the BB key, a context menu doesn't come up at all. And how the hell do you add bookmarks? I keep opening new tabs or whatever, I just can't get my sites into those squares. And deleting the homegrown bookmarks? fuhgidaboudit...lol |

Alright BB Cats, what's your ringtone for:
Calls? SMS? MMS? BBM? Facebook? Email?
Calls: G Club pres. Banda Sonora - Guitarra G
SMS: Outlook 2000-2003 new e-mail sound
MMS: I-Phone marimba tone
BBM: X-Box achievement sound
E-mail: doorbell
Facebook: some really calm chill tone I scored off some site
I don't like my tones original, or annoying., And I sure as hell don't want to hear a sound and look at my phone and have it end up being someone else's phone that made the noise.

I do some standard sounds in holster but everything on vibrate-only when out of holster. Makes changing a profile as easy as just taking it out of holster and putting in on the desk (good for meetings and public places). I have one of those leather pocket protectors, which has the sleep magnet inside so life becomes much simpler.
