So preface, I had a droid maxx whose radio connections all died after about eight months. I took it in and got a new one under warranty. The replacement's power button didn't work. Took it in and got a new one under warranty. That's the one I'm currently on, and have had it problem-free for...

So about six months ago, my tablet up and died. Won't turn on. Won't charge. No indication that it's literally anything more than a hunk of plastic. Tried every combination of holding down buttons for various lengths of time (up to five minutes) and unplugging/replugging. Got on the phone with...

Realized Tasker had a free trial, and it is indeed the answer! It's not perfect, but it pretty regularly does what I need it to do. For those wondering, I set the phone orientation state to vertical and had it play one of four audio files ripped from the movie of the sorting hat calling out...

Hey gang So my girlfriend is throwing a Harry Potter themed party for Halloween, and I thought it would be great to have a Sorting Hat that actually recognized when it's being put on and could tell people what house they're in. Conceptually, I have an idea to do it but no clue what the...

Hey guys, hope you can help. I've browsed the forums for my problem and no solution has worked. I was watching a video on my tablet, which was running sluggish. The video was jittery and made the tablet respond slowly. Eventually, while the video was playing, it just froze altogether. I hit...

Don't know when it happened, but at some point in the past I noticed for some reason my video files wouldn't sync with the audio when I played movies on my nexus 7. They'd be just a frame or two off. Just enough to be annoying as hell. Happens in multiple apps (including vlc), with all...

Hope this is the right forum, didn't think support/troubleshooting was right since this is a hardware issue. My droid x is about a year and a half old and the back button has finally given out. It's not just unresponsive-- I literally can't click it, it's permanently depressed. It seems like...

No idea how, when, or why, but at some point between being on stock Froyo, flashing to .588, then .591, then .595, then Apex, then back to .595, my app drawer is a mess. The apps are just scattered everywhere, order wise-- any idea how I can reorganize them to get them back into alphabetical...

Anyone spare a minute to answer a question? So I rooted my phone yesterday (awesome) and, after doing some research (rooler's guide and these forums were a help), felt I was ready for overclocking. Decided to start the easy path and get comfortable, so I downloaded quickclock. Calibrated it...

Hey gang, bit of a noob... I have a few questions on things (that I'm pretty sure aren't possible, but I figured I'd ask) so instead of making a bunch of new threads... here's just the one! Okay, skins for widgets. I love the functions of a few particular widgets, but I don't like the...

There are plenty of threads out there for rooted users with extended batteries getting 70+ hours of life... and that's great. But it's not for me, yet. So for the purpose of discussion, what kind of battery life should I be expecting to get? I'm unrooted on the stock battery, and I'm just kind...

So I finally got fed up with my storm 2 a few days ago and switched to droid x. Absolutely love it. BUT on the storm 2 there was a dedicated music/audio button on the top of the phone. It was extremely useful... walking around, if i need to walk into a deli to get a soda, i reach into my...
