Motorola Droid X :: Incredible Users Upgrading To X

Jun 29, 2010

side note: i posted this in the moto x forum too. Thought i'd post here since i know alot of you tried to switch out your order for the droid x.Waited since june 4th for my incredible to get here by my promised ship date of 6/25. 6/25 passed and while calling to bitch about the wait, they said i could swap out my order for a droid x. That i could just have them cancel my incredible order and preorder the x. I did it. She said she didn't have a confirmation number for my preorder or anything but that she would text it to me the next day (this was sunday, so the text would've come monday). Well, it never came. So i called verizon last night to confirm my preorder of the x and they said they saw it in the system and all was good.

Just a few minutes ago i got an email saying my droid incredible has finally shipped. WTF?! The incredible was all i could think about for weeks and weeks and it didn't ship. Now that i have another phone in mind, it finally decides to ship? So i call 611 and she tells me i can reject the shipment, BUT...that "the other reps that told me i had a preorder for the x were wrong. I don't. Because nobody can preorder the x from verizon and that i'd have to wait until it's release on july 15th to order it."what the hell is going on? I'm gonna call verizon back a couple more times and see if i get different answers. But really, their inconsistencies are giving me a headache

Android :: Users Have Trouble Upgrading My App In Market

Oct 12, 2009

I've had more than one user say they have trouble when they "upgrade" new versions of my app in Android Market. One woman says it takes her several "days" to successfully do it (I presume that means multiple attempts spread out over time).Can this be on my end? I upgrade my database on each rev - basically I retreive the user data and stick it in the new database that ships with my app. But I think the complaint is about something different. Has anyone else received comments about anything similar? I am concerned people uninstall my app just because of this issue,

HTC Droid Eris :: Users Upgrade To Incredible?

Apr 28, 2010

I came from a Moto RZR a few months ago to be an early adopter of the Nexus 1. Soon found that tMobile didn't cut it coverage wise so I returned it. However, I really loved the OS and so I decided to wait for the N1 to come to VZW.Not being able to wait for the N1 I bought an Eris for $10 and signed up for a 2-yr contract. During the couple months or so with the Eris I flashed both leaks. My Eris was working very good indeed with few problems.I then pre-ordered and received the Incredible today. It is a sweet phone however, this is the point I want to make. Once the official 2.1 is available, the Eris is and will continue to be one fine phone. If speed is your cup of tea then upgrade but just realize you'll be able to do the exact same thing on your Eris so think twice before you take the plunge.This is in no way a buyer's remorse statement as I really wanted the speed and it is nice to have everything functioning as it should. I'm sure there will be problems. Remember, the Eris will work just as well in the future minus the speed.

Motorola Droid :: Upgrading To BB1.0

May 4, 2010

I currently have BB 0.9 and i want to upgrade to NexBeast 1.0. So my understanding is that NexBeast is based off of BB1.0. Does that mean I can upgrade to nexbeast 1.0 from BB 0.9? How is this different from installing a new rom? I have also never tried to upgrade from one build to the next, how would i go about doing this?

Motorola Droid X :: Upgrading

Jul 15, 2010

I've been thinking about upgrading to the X seeing as I epic failed finding the Missing phone in Boston after sitting right next to the guy who was giving it away before they gave out the final clue .

My upgrade date isn't until next year, if i call CS is there anychance they will allow me to upgrade at the $199 price or am I SOL? and if they do and i order it over the phone can I have them just add the cost to my next bill or will i have to pay over the phone? I've actually never upgraded my phone before, the first real cellphone i bought on my own was the iPhone 3G and didn't upgrade to the 3GS because it was crap and ended up switching to Verizon and the Droid when it was released...

Droid :: Upgrading SD Card For Motorola

Mar 6, 2010

I don't think this has been asked before in this forum, but if it has, I apologize for repeating... Just like many of you probably are, I am in need of more storage. 14 GB is evaporating fast, and I'm not sure the SD card is upgradable yet. I don't fully understand exactly what an SD card does besides provide storage (ie: does it function as a hard drive, etc). Basically, how are those who are upgrading their SD cards doing so without having to reload all your apps, re-buying apps you paid for, and having to otherwise completely set up your Droid all over again from scratch?

Motorola :: Upgrading From Eris To Droid X

Sep 25, 2010

I got fed up with my music player constantly skipping/phone lag on my Eris and got a VZW manager to approve a early upgrade for me. I was thinking should I go with the Droid X? I wanted some current owner's opinions before I drop $200 on it.Currently I mainly use my phone for:

1. Texting- I send hundreds of texts a day.

2. Web Surfing- I spend a lot of time on-line google, news..etc

3. Picture taking- I love to snap photos of friends and travels.

4. Talking- I maybe use 500 min a month if that. I text a lot due to working in a call center.

5. Mp3 player- i use my phone in the car and at work so i can have good music rather than the crap work plays on the speakers to listen to.

Considering these points do you think it would be wise to choose the X?All input is welcome and appreciated.

Motorola Droid :: Applications Need To Be Installed For Upgrading?

Sep 7, 2010

I have been reading about different ROMs, kernals and themes that have been posted on this site and they all sound very interesting and I have finally decided on what I would like to try first. I used the directions from here to force install the latest Froyo which is awesome and the directions were very nice. So I am hoping to get some guidance for my next adventure with my phone.

I want to install the newest version of Liquid Frozen Yogurt with the Tangerine theme along with one of Slayhers kernals. What all apps do I need to install the above items? And I know the instructions are all out there on how but could someone either point me to the specific ones that I need or paste them here for me? I am doing this to a Moto Droid.

Motorola Droid X :: Apps To Think About For New Users

Nov 30, 2010

so im a huge fan of android and especially the Droid X. Im here to help those of you who are newbies to the Droid X or really any Droid. So here are some apps that have really made my Droid X a very great machine:Non-rooted phones: Astro file manager- simple app that lets you take a look into your phone and sd card memory and its free. Beautiful Widgets- a very nice clock widget similar to htc's stock clock but comes with other widget buttons like wifi and bluetooth etc. Costs about $1.50 but i stole my copy. Cherry Rplayer- a free satellite radio app. ChompSMS- a free txt message app that lets you totally customize how u send and read texts. Gtunes- free mp3 search engine where you can search and download music. HistoryEraser- erases history from your browser and even the market place.Yahoo! Mail- if you got Yahoo! this free app will let you know if you have a message in your yahoo! mail like Gmail does.PdaNet- free tethering app to give your computer internet thru your phone. It is free but you can not access private web pages but you can pay a one time fee to unlock all features. Power Control Plus- instead of the lame stock power control widget that came with the phone you can get this for .99 cents or steal for free and customize your own power control widget. Ring droid-free app which lets you customize your music into ringtones. TiKL touch to talk-if your on a strict calling plan get this..its a free walkie talkie type app that will let you talk to friends anywhere for free as long as your friends have it too. Wheres my droid?-if you miss place your phone and have it on silent this free app will make your droid ring untill you find out where its at.Lancher pro- there are tw versions of this home replacement app there is the free launcher pro and the paid version..paid version gives you access to your facebook and twitter on a single widget so you can update your status or post something on your wall all at once. It also has other widgets such as: twitter, facebook, calendar, friends and others. Free version does not have any of that. Now for you out there wanting to root your phone i have only a couple of apps that are really worth the download: Z4root- free rooting app that gives you the choice to temporary root or permanently root with one click. You can even un-root with one click. Droidoverclock- .99cents gets you this great overclocking app that can make your droid x go from 1000mhz(1ghz) to 1450mhz(1.45ghz) or even underclock if you wish. DroidX Bootstrap- $2 app lets you go into recovery mode to install themes and or ROMs. Well i hope i did some good for you newbies who are looking fir good apps to get the best out your droid x's. Stay Avid!

Motorola Droid :: 2.0.1 Users Try Out This 2.1 Keyboard?

Dec 8, 2009

When the HTC Hero 2.1 was leaked out I immediatly pulled out the new HTC_IME.apk file (the keyboard). I figure that it will be updated for bigger, high res screens since this is whats going to come on hte Bravo/Passion/Dragon. I was sad to find out that the version number was higher than my droid so it would not install. When I peeked into the Manifest file I could see that it is SDK level 6 where Droid is on SDK level 5. At the time I assumed 6 was 2.1. However, Google has already released the 2.0.1 SDK and it is level 6.So, since I haven't gotten my update to 2.0.1 yet maybe someone else wants to see if the HTC_IME.apk will now install? You can either pull the file down from the web, install it with a file manager like Astro, or push it to the phone with "adb install HTC_IME.apk" if you have the SDK installed.

Motorola Droid 2 :: Upgrading / Copy Songs With SD Card

Nov 11, 2010

I picked up my Droid 2 this past Saturday, and immediately ordered a 16GB Transcend Class 6 micro SD card for it. To install it, I plugged my Droid into my PC (Linux machine), un-hid all the hidden files, copied them to my desktop, then disconnected the Droid, took the stock card out, plugged the new card in, and copied the files back. After a reboot of the Droid, everything seemed OK.The problems started while copying songs onto the Droid. The copy process froze, and ever since, the phone had problems with this card. It's sluggish, and hangs on shut-down.Is there a proper way to upgrade to a new card that I don't know about? The guys at the Verizon store didn't have any ideas.

Motorola Droid X :: Upgrading To New Froyo On Unrooted Phone

Is there a way to wait for one of the android sites to get the latest version, download it and do the upgrade myself? If I have to roll it back, what is the best way to do it?

Motorola Droid :: Rooted Users Have It Made

Aug 23, 2010

So I get the Droid Inc. and begin to fish around the Incredible forum for ROMs and kernels. It's very limited over there (short supply probably means less devs.) and the ROMs are far less polished with even less theming options. I'm lucky I can still troll around here because my girl has the D1 and it gives me an excuse to keep her phone updated until more things come around for the Dinc.

Motorola Droid :: 3D Launcher For None Root Users On Market

Haven't seen this posted yet so here it is. 3d launcher 2 for non root users running OTA 2.1. Search for "Clockwork mod Launcher" Or "launcher 2" on the market. It will cost you but the devs deserve the donate cause it's not an easy task to get a working 3d launcher on droid let alone one that runs good.

Motorola Droid X :: Performance Of Wireless Tether For Root Users?

Aug 23, 2010

I've been trying to use Wireless Tether with my laptop and have noticed that it is extremely finicky. It usually works for a minute or two but then I can't load anything at all on my laptop. I'm not doing any heavy activity or anything, just browsing some websites, but it does this consistently. I have to toggle it off and on and reconnect my laptop before I can use the internet again. No error messages or anything, it just gets stuck at 0.0 kbps on my phone as if my computer isn't communicating with it anymore.

Does anyone have this problem or is this just a common limitation with ad hoc networks? Is there another solution out there? I'm using the leaked Froyo rom but noticed this with the official 2.1 rom too. Doesn't 2.2 come with built-in hotspot capabilities? I wouldn't mind using wired tethering either, but it looks like that won't happen until we can get a custom kernel?

Motorola Droid :: Why Not More Excitement Over 5 Home Screens For Stock Users?

Feb 9, 2010

I know this is becoming quite a root-centric forum, but for us non-rooters, I think getting 5 home screens will be the biggest upgrade in 2.1. It hasn't been confirmed though so as soon as someone finds out, LET US KNOW.If we get all the multi-touch + 2.1 Gallery + 5 home screens I will be a very happy camper.

Motorola Droid X : Evo Vs DX Users / Quality - Internal Memory Features

Jul 17, 2010

For those who returned their Evo for the DX, how are you liking the DX?

I returned my Evo due to build quality and got the DX today. I'm going back and forth on whether to keep the DX or going back to the Evo or perhaps going for one of the Galaxy variants.

Here's my personal take on Evo vs Droid.

Pros for Droid.

1. Build quality. The DX just feels more solid than the Evo. Only concern I have about the DX is that the physical buttons feel a little flimsy...got me wondering if they are going to hold up over time with repeated use.

2. Internal memory. Out of the box with no apps installed, the Evo showed internal memory of around 350mb; the DX is showing around 6.8gb! Not sure what I would use all this for but nice not worrying about clearing out cache to free up memory.

3. Smoother scrolling, particularly noticeable in the app drawer.

4. Camcorder shoots much better video than Evo and audio quality is night and day between the two.

5. No 30fps cap. I don't know how significant this is since I dont play games on my phone but probably has something to do with the smoother scrolling.

Pros for Evo.

1. Sense UI/eye candy. The droid x's UI seems like a hodgepodge of the stock UI and motoblur. Sense just seems more like a "finished" product. I know there's ADW or Launcher pro but I don't think they measure up to Sense IMHO.

2. Camera. The Evo camera seems much faster than the DX. The shutter lag was almost non-existent on the EVO. I am getting a slight lag on the DX. The lag isn't significant for most shots but trying to snap pics of my 5 yr old son requires a little more planning . Wish the DX had a shutter button on screen (I think the stock android has an on screen button. Don't know why it was taken out on the DX)

3. Browser. Reformatting of pages on zoom is a two step/two hand process on the DX (pinch/tap) whereas on the Evo it was just tap OR pinch. Also, copying text in the browser was really well done in the Evo (hard press/highlight)...still haven't figured it out on the DX but once again, I think it's a two hand process.

4. Keyboard. The htc keyboard has hard press for alternate input (eg. symbols/numbers) in addition to changing to numeric input. From what I've seen, the droid keyboard doesn't seem to have this. (btw, if anyone likes the HTC keyboard, I think there's an apk for it on xda developers called htc_ime mod. I have it installed on my G1 and it works quite well).

One other thing I noticed is that the DX seems to get warmer during fairly normal use. I wouldn't say it gets "hot" but it's definitely noticeable and something I didn't feel on the EVO.

And then there's still the issue of build quality on the Evo which doesn't seem to have been fully resolved based on what I've been reading. So anyway, I guess there's no one "perfect" phone...give up something to gain another. Still debating which features are most important to me.

Motorola Droid X :: Custom Boot Animation For Non-Rooted Phone Users?

Sep 11, 2010

On previous phones such as the Droid Eris and Droid 1, users were able to use custom boot animations without being rooted. All you had to do was push the new file to the boot animation location and it would over ride the old one. I really want custom boot animations on my X but am not rooted. Does anyone know a solution to this other than rooting and how to install without being rooted?
