Motorola Droid :: Phone-answering Sliding Tab Thing
Jul 19, 2010
Just bought my wife her first Android phone, an original Droid (A855). Seems they're on sale everyhwere since the release of the X. Anyway, she absolutely HATES that Motoblur green side-pulling tab thing for answering a phone call. She just can't seem to get the hang of it. Is there some way to change that, or is there an app available that will change the interface and just give her a simple button to push for answering a call?

I have only had it happen twice. When I answer by Droid, the caller can barely be heard. At first I thought there was no sound, but I could hear the caller, but just barely.
Anyone else have this problem?

I realized yesterday that I'm killing my battery life by having my Droid sliding open while in my pocket. I never really paid attention to it, the sliding open never really bothered me, until I realized that basically my phone was sliding open, coming on, then closing, then opening again. Does anyone use a case that keeps it from opening?

I am looking for a case that will prevent the keyboard from sliding out. I know I will more than likely not find what I am looking for because the slide out keyboard is a selling point for this phone, but mine keeps sliding out in my pocket and I am concerned that the open portion of the keyboard might bend, flex or crack if it is bent the wrong way. Maybe I am being paranoid, but it never hurts to be preventative

I don't know how the whole app thing works.I hit market d/l play and delete if I don't like it. When I do this with windows a little bit of each program remains on my computer. Does the same thing happen with apps on my phone? Do I need to reformat my phone every now and then to clean it up like I do my computers?

I want to be able to record a quick vid of my little girl and email it to her grandma from the phone. Problem is it records in 3GP and so far have not found an easy way to get her computer (3000 miles away) to play these files.
So I guess I am looking for 1 of 3 things.
1. Way to record in some thing else. (AVI, MP3/4 etc.)
2. Way to convert it simply on the phone to a compatible type.
3. A way to send a file to Grandma that is pretty much click here and run this app.

Recently when i answer calls i have had little or no volume. The only solution seams to be a hard reset. Seams to happen more frequently after listening to music via wire headphones.

Sorry this sounds ridiculous, but when I'm typing a message and i mess up and try to place my curser somewhere close to the mistake to correct it, what does the red circles mean/do? Is there an auto correct thing i'm not understanding?

Does anyone use the city ID feature that came with your droid X? I like how it shows the city that the call is coming from.
It is free for I think the first 30 days. After which to keep using it you will need to pay 1.99 per month.
Anyone know of a free app that would do the same thing? 1.99 a month is pretty ridiculous for what it does.

My keyboard is constantly sliding out when in my pocket or other times when I don't want it to. Really annoying. I like the phone but am not sold on the quality of it at all. I think I am taking it back and waiting for the passion.
Anyone else slide out keyboard getting loose?

About 25% of the time my phone will ring and I go to swipe the lock to answer the call and I get no response from the slider. If and when it does decide to slide the call has already gone to voicemail. And if I turn the slide screen off in settings and the phone rings, tapping the "answer call" button does nothing (again, not all of the time).
I just tried to duplicate it calling my DX from my workphone and it slides fine and answers the call. Anyone have any ideas what might be causing the slider to not slide some of the time? Other than with answering the phone I've had no problems with the touch-screen.

I'm having an awful time with my Eris when it comes to picking up calls and an even worse time dialing out. Everything is delayed after pressing keys. This morning I went to dial someone and when it didn't dial I set the phone down to use my office phone and then out of the corner of my eye I see it was calling the person. Once I had the person on the phone w/in a minute my cheek (I'm assuming) ended the call.
So the screen was in the call history list so I pressed his name again to call and it called the next person below on the list. It was probably adding his name to the call history and moved the list but because it was delayed it dialed the wrong person. I love this phone except for phone Calls. I'm going into Verizon today to complain. They will be able to tell from my call history how frequently I'm missing calls because the phone doesn't pick up and then I redial back. 5 calls back and forth for a 2 minute conversations!

I don't use the physical keyboard and wondered if there is a protective case (either hardshell or rubberized) that keeps the keyboard from sliding out?

Iv'e done alot of searching for the answer to my question with no luck. So I finally rooted and downloaded ROMmanager and installed bugless beast. I saw that there is a new WirelessTether app in my drawer. When I turn it on, it shows up as wifi on my ipod touch. Is this the same thing as a wifi hotspot?

i'm looking for a way to make phonecalls with my computer+Logitech G230, through my android device (Jiayu G4 Advanced)
The Remotecall app in Playstore still requires me to pick up my phone in order to actually hear something..
its got all the other features i'd like to use: answer calls from my PC, make calls from pc (from , for example, the outlook contactlist), call Log capability; but i have to pick up my phone when i probably can just hear it through my headphone (connected to PC)
I think i should be looking for some sort of voip server on my phone and let my computer act as voip client, but i'm not entirely sure about that.

What is the best thing you can do with your captivate? Well, I like the navigation and google sky, but most importantly it is a phone. The call quality is good and people can hear me well in the wind. I love the way the phone rests in my hand with its size and shape. Also, it is reported to have a low SAR around .5 Hopefully I'll find another new and amazing use for this device.

Often times when my phone rings. when I pick it up I can hear the person that's calling coming thru the speaker before I answer. It's almost like the phone is partly answering itself.

I have some weirdness when trying to answer my phone. I searched these forums and it doesn't look like anyone else is complaining about it. Is it just me?
Note: I had to play around with it a bit to replicate the problems because sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.
I can classify the problems into two categories. 1) When the screen is off when the phone is ringing. and 2) When the screen is on and I see Caller Id etc...
1) Behavior when the screen is off when the phone is ringing:
First off, I'm not sure why sometimes the screen is on or off when it's ringing. I keep the phone in my pocket so I wonder if its the "proximity detector" some people have mentioned. When I pull the phone out of my pocket, sometimes the screen turns on, sometimes it doesn't. Yet sometimes I can sneak a peek in my pocket at the caller ID. Anybody know what determines what makes the screen on or off when a call is coming in?
When the screen is off, the green answer button does nothing. This is particularly frustrating when the phone is in my hand with nothing in front of it to block the proximity detector, yet I cannot answer it. Giving the phone a little shake sometimes makes it tun on, bust sometimes doesn't. Maybe the shake effect is just coincidence.
Also, pressing the side buttons will not silence it like they do when the screen is on. The only button that works is the red one which sends the caller to voice mail.
2) Behavior when the screen is on and the phone is ringing:
Green button answers it, as it should.
Red button sends it to voice mail, as it should.
Side buttons silence it, as they should.
The home menu and back buttons send it directly to voice mail. This is frustrating if I'm pulling the phone out of my pocket ad accidentally brush one of those going for the green button. Anybody else have this problem?
Also I was reading on other threads about holding the red button until options come up. Mine does not do this. The red button just sends caller to voice mail no matter how long I hold it.
3) Sometimes my screen does not go to sleep. But stays on the "screen locked, pres menu to unlock" screen. This often happens after I miss a call, or just hit the red button to check the time and then set it down. But only sometimes and not others. Any clues?

I could use a little help. I carry my EVO in my pocket, and am constantly answering calls that I do not know are incoming. It seems the phone is rubbing against my leg and answering the call. Obviously locking the phone does not help, since you can answer a call without unlocking the phone. Anyone know an app, or alternative solution to keep this from happening?

The way we can do it in HTML, where we have two framesets. If I click a link in one frame then only the other frame(target one) is reloaded, the one from which I clicked is not.
How this can be done in Android?
As in, Say I have a kind of taskbar/toolbar which is part of all views. Is there any way in which Activities from one "Frame" can switch but activity in other frame remains stable?

I just got my phone about 4 days ago, and when opening apps, unlocking, opening contact lists etc etc, it just lags heaps. Does anybody else have the same issue? Could it just be an optimization thing or something?
