Not specific to the Droid, but adding an empty file named .nomedia to any folder will hide its contents from the photo gallery (and other gallery-like apps). This is handy if, for example, you don't want have to scroll through all yr twitter avatars whenever you go to view your photos.

You'll have to install some sort of file explorer app to view contents of your SD card, such as EStrongs File Explorer or OI File Manager.

Holding home button on moto droid brings up last 6 apps you used. Long press on apps etc to find additional options. Apps can be added to home screen from menu w/ long press this is good when the widget is too large. Downloading manual is useful but a lot has to learned using other methods Keep adding tips b/c I am still learning Thanks for everyones contribution here before long we will have a user created manual here ! I hope.

Ok so tip I can offer is to go to support.vzw.com/phones and find moto droid user manual (this is where I discovered quickoffice was availabe for pdf viewing). I downloaded and viewed manual here but can't reproduce w/o app I found on market. Hopes this helps answer my initial question...

for apps running in back ground- go to seetings> accounts n sync > background data. note: market needs background data on to run.

to see active services go to settings > applications > running services.

note : some things will appear hear that do not in adv task killer etc.

To enhance your phone sound while making a call. (I'm sure some of you have noticed static every now and then) Go to the phone dial pad and do this: ##7764726 (##program) Enter spc password-000000 Verify 04 vocode Select evrc-b

This should beaf up the phones sound quality and hopefully get rid of the random static and interferance.
