I remember disabling it to prevent OTA upgrades, but now I want to take the upgrade and cannot find the file in the system/app folder. I never delete system files; just rename them and have no idea how it got deleted. When I try to check for the OTA upgrade, it crashes due to the missing...

I have Facebook Messenger set as my SMS/MMS app now. The only problem is when I receive an MMS file attachment and have it save the picture, I can never find where it's saved. I've checked every folder QuikPic detects that has images in it, but none contain any images I've saved from FB...

Android Police article Officially official: the Droid 4 will get an OTA upgrade to Jelly Bean. Sweet, hot, buttery melted goodness. This will cure all this poor phone's ills.

Is this normal on an ICS phone with moderate use?

If I'm in my app drawer, long press an icon and then press Add to Home Screen, it always puts the icon on the leftmost screen, even if I'm on another screen. This behavior started after I upgraded to Gingerbread 2.3.6. Is this a bug in the OS?

What are the exact specs needed in the desc file to make a custom boot animation play on my Droid 4? I downloaded a boot animation and put it in the system/media folder, but it never shows. I only get a blank screen when I boot up. Right now, I have the parameters set as: 540 960 15. I've also...

I have the CNN app set to push breaking headlines to my notification blind, which it did under Froyo and the Monster Gingerbread leak. It no longer does this under the official Gingerbread. Is this the case for anyone else? Thank you.

While out walking, I experienced a random loss of data connectivity where the signal bars turned white (as opposed to blue) and the 3G icon disappeared. I toggled Airplane Mode on and off twice with no results. I finally had to pull the battery to reconnect. Isn't toggling Airplane Mode...

I've been reading about custom boot animations and am thinking of trying it myself. I am rooted and have Root Explorer installed. From what I've read, installing a new animation is as simple as using Root Explorer to put the new bootanimation.zip file in the /data/local folder, without even...

I purchased the latest version of IM+ Pro 4.0.3 from Shape Services and downloaded the APK file to the root of my SD card. However, when I attempt to install it, it aborts the installation, saying simply, "File not installed". I downloaded another APK to my SD card and was able to...

Can anyone recommend an app or some fix that could make my keyboard light up upon being slid out (as it's supposed to do)? I've tried Keyboard Backlite On and Dark Keys from the Market, but neither of them lit the keyboard. I read about Power Control, but that app is no longer being supported...

I was out walking, plugged my Skull Candy headphones into the jack and fired up the native media player. Nothing came out. The counter was moving forward, meaning the music was playing. When I got home, I tested it without the headphones and the music played over the phone's speaker. I then...

Rooted Droid 2 with Froyo 2.2 and 2.3.20 system update I rooted my Droid 2 using Doroot, installed Titanium Backup and proceeded to stupidly uninstall the Skype bloatware that Verizon and Motorola so thoughtfully put on all our Droids. Only later on did I learn that in order to receive OTA...
