Motorola Droid :: Phone Broke During Update / What To Do?
Aug 19, 2010
I received notification this morning that my phone was ready for an update! Unfortunately after the update rebooted the phone it stopped at the Moto symbol and would not go any further. Called verizon and walked throught he normal battery pull and factory reset to no avail. The only answer they had was to send me a replacement phone which will be here to tomorrow. Bummer it broke but good customer service softened the issue.

I did the over the air 2.1 update and now my People app sync'd all 2000 of my Gmail contacts and there appears to be *no* option to sync just the 'My Contacts' group of my Gmail account.There was an option for that in Eris 1.5 (although I remember it being a little hard to find). But I've searched everywhere, and there is no "Sync Groups" option on any of the tabs of the People app. I also tried wiping the Contacts Storage app and resyncing, but that was no help. There are no options in Settings->Accounts & Sync either.This is a crippling regression bug, how could they have shipped the 2.1 update like this? Or am I just missing some hidden sync option?

OK this is weird, I haven't really taken much pics with my Droid X until recently. First time I had the phone, the camera button worked great, took a few pics here and there just to test it out. Have not used it since then, until recently. It was working fine after taking a few shots but from some reason, it won't take any pics now. Also pressing the camera button does not open the camera app at all now (it used to before).I know it's two stages, autofocus then press all the way down to take the pic, but it aint working. I slowly press it for autofocus, nothing happens. I then completely press it down, still nothing. Sometimes it does look like it focuses really quick then the LED light flashes for a moment but camera does not take the pic (no click or anything). And now it hardly even does that anymore. I tried a camera app that has the buttons on screen and that works taking pics so I'm guessing its my camera button... Anyone had this issue?This really sucks, I'm going to have to take this to VZ store near my house, if anything would they replace it with a new phone or a refurb?

I just did the update yesterday on my EVO and now google maps is completely gone. I've tried rebooting but that hasn't helped me either. Anyone else having this issue or know what I can do to fix it?

Is anyone else having this issue? Ever since the OTA update yesterday, if I am on the phone and another call comes in, at that very moment, the current call I am on gets disconnected and I have to click either "answer" or "reject" button. Its like the WAITING part of call waiting doesn't work anymore. like the phone can only handle 1 call at a time. I've tried rebooting but dont know what else to try.

First one broke 2 weeks ago I don't know what from but I've never dropped the phone with the case on and next thing I know I took it out of my pocket and the face plate was broken in the top right corner.This evening as I was walking home with my phone and case on it that I just got replaced about 5 days ago I dropped my phone screen down first, I thought it was done. Luckily it was safe though again the face plate is broken on my case.
I'm getting yet another replacement from Otterbox which is good..Really wish I could get a refund or voucher to use on their site for the cost of the case.

I have installed the 2.1 update on my HTC Hero yesterday, and happy as a puppy I instaleld my streaming app... Just to discover that it won't stream decently... It has to stream an mp3 stream and it works on my ADP 1.6 device, on a Samsung Galaxy S test-device (with 2.1) and on the 2.1 emulator...
Logcat is gettign the follwoing errors :
06-30 10:14:18.360: INFO/AudioPolicyService(56): stopOutput(): before lock
06-30 10:14:21.259: DEBUG/dalvikvm(1906): GC freed 28 objects / 1944 bytes in 186ms

06-30 10:14:54.022: INFO/AudioHardwareMSM72XX(56): AUDIO_START: start kernel pcm_out driver.
The result is a playing player, which stops (pauzes) every 10 seconds, the restarts This will work for about 8-10 restarts and then will simply stop without ever thrwoing an exception or something like that Which makes it somewhat difficult (if not impossible) to catch for us developers So has anyone been experiencing the same problem ? Does anyone have a clue if in this update another OpenCore lib has been used ? Does anyone have any solution ?

I just manually updated to 2.2 (successfully) but I started to panic when I couldn't find the camera shots category in the new gallery app. I mounted the phone to my computer and found the photos on my phones internal memory, so they're all safe, but I still cant view them on my phone. Also, whenever I take a picture and try to go back to review it later, I get a "no photos found" error, and the new photo doesn't show up in the directory of the previously "lost" photos from prior to the update. It's safe to say that I'm utterly bamboozled. Anyone else experiencing this issue or know how to fix it?

What do we do now.. i cannot charge my phone which means i cannot talk on my phone because the port on my evo 4g at which i am to use to plug my charger into, is broken. after looking into this issue on the internet, i have learned that this is not an uncommon issue but that this is a very common issue amoung evo users... i absolutely love this phone, however i am very let down and discouraged to have developed this problem and i am hoping that there is an easy solution... i would hate to have to be any more irritated than i already have become.

That isn't the worst part of it. I dropped the phone battery and the cover came off and the micro sd latch broke off it. It just like popped off after it dropped in target like a week ago so now I can't use a ringtone nor take pictures or download music straight to my phone so is there any way to get the micro sd working again? Because I can't exactly replace this phone being that I had won this when that giveaway was going on back last year in december.

Real pleased with the 2.2 update so far, loving the slight changes and improvements, however I have noticed that the lower rear of the phone is getting really hot. To be honest, I never really noticed any heat from this area before the update. My phone was updated bone stock to the 2.2 this morning via the leaked update. Anyone else noticed the HEAT?

Ok so i know that the network may be slightly bogged down with everybody trying to download 2.2, but i am having no luck at all updating. I go to check for updates, and it will say "Checking for Updates Please Wait..." for as long as i leave it alone. Any suggestions? I have WiFi on, and have tried many other possible solutions from around the forums. Could it just be my phones problem or maybe something with connection?

This morning, I got a second OTA update that came in exactly the same format as the first, which I had gotten a couple of weeks ago. I have a moto droid. The OS version is still 2.2 of course. The Build Number is FRG22D Anyone else get a second Froyo OTA update on their Droid or other Android phone?

I attempted earlier this week to manually install the update, it wouldn't go for me. I got the notification this AM about the update, selected to reboot and got the error screen. After reboot when I go to check for system updates it tells me I'm up to date with 2.0.1. I may back up my texts, though I don't have any critical info there, and do a factory reset then try the manual update process again. Factory reset shouldn't wipe the SD card, right?

Last week I downloaded and installed the file for the 2.2 update, the FRG01B or whatever.
Since then:
- I cannot put my phone on silent. It will only go down to vibrate.
- Battery life has diminished. Went from lasting on average I'd say about 26 hours or so to now about 20.
- Some text messages don't go through to people I send to, and some sent to me don't come until much much later.
Now that I'm reading that the actual OTA update that is being pushed out again today is the same as what I forced last week, I'm beginning to consider just going back down to 2.1 so I don't have these issues.

I mentioned this in another thread, but I thought I'd start a new thread for this problem. I have a Droid I need to send back to Verizon, so I want to get it back to stock. It had been running CyanogenMod, so I wanted to flash the 2.0.1 SBF. For some unknown reason, I flashed it with SPRecovery again. I waited for that to finish and then flashed the 2.0.1 SBF like I originally had meant to.It seems to be running 2.0.1 just fine, but it will not download the 2.1 update. I get a notification that says 2.1 is available. I hit the Download button and it acts as if it is starting the download, but then it goes back to the screen that says 2.1 is available. It never downloads the update.I really want to get this to a stock 2.1 before I send it back.Any thoughts?

Running Build ESD49, downloaded the 2.1 file from like 6 different sites, named it update.zip (not .zip.zip), put it in the ROOT of my SD card - and I continuously get the following error code...
there's a whole lot more between the first and last entry but you experts probably know exactly what I am referring to.

Looks like there is no way to make the phone completely silent without having to press a button when a call is coming in. I tried pressing the volume button all the way down, pass the vibrate mode but that seems to have been removed in 2.2.

I'm new to android phones and m considering rooting my x. Sorry if this is totally a dumb question, but I was just wondering what happened when froyo comes out? Will i be getting the upgrade? Will the phone stay rooted if the update does download? Will i have to restore the phone in order to get the update?

The link for update.zip to root your phone is a dead link. Can someone please post an updated link so I can download this file and any other files I need to root.

I remember there used to be a thread on the website that showed you only having to use an update.zip file to root the stock 2.1. Does anybody know where the thread is or how to do it?

I got 2 Droid X's last Saturday. If you hold mine and my wife's side by side (in the house), she gets 3G and 3 to 4 bars, while mine is 1X or lower with no bars 90% of the time.
The folks at my local store did a *228, option 2 on my phone and asked me to the same when I got home. Distance between the store and my house is about 9 miles. I did this. Still no help.
So i looked at my wife's phone and the PRL version on her phone is 65169, the version on mine is 52105. Obviously her list sees better towers or something. Is there any way to get my phone to set at that same version of the PRL list? A way to get a specific PRL on the phone?
I get good reception most everywhere else, but the fact that the exact 2 phones have such vastly different reception in the same place is frustrating.

Is there a way to manually update the Droid phone to the new version of the OS? My phone doesn't have service because I am using it for learning development only.
