    Help VZW - Proximity Sensor or Display Issue

    I have a Verizon Galaxy Note 2, stock, on the latest update. Since the update I've experienced a weird issue with my phone. While on a phone call the screen turns off when I put the phone to my ear. This is expected behavior, but the screen will not turn back on until the caller hangs up or...

    Better signal than a Razr

    So I'll just post this here to avoid sounding like a troll. I work IT located in an area of the city with marginal signal. I'm usually between -87 to -97 DB. Today a user came in needing email setup on his new Razr. The bad news...he had no signal. He couldn't connect to LTE at all. His signal...

    Tethering (phone checks with Verizon)

    I dug into settings and found the tethering/hotspot section. I enabled the wireless hotspot and noticed something interesting. The phone checked my subscription information, pretty smart on Verizon's part if you ask me but will probably upset many people. I'm sure there will be a fix for...

    Getting frustrated...

    Getting frustrated...simply because of the lack of communication from Verizon, Google, & Samsung. I understand that these companies would rather say nothing than to backtrack on their word. However this is a highly anticipated device that many of us have been drooling over for months now...

    Broke Down

    I purchased the Rezound...but after all the hype and what looks to be a Dec. 9th release date I called Verizon to confirm the holiday return policy. I packed up my Rezound, fired up the TBolt, and am going to call on release day to do my exchange. The Rezound is a great phone, and the...

    I want a White Back!

    They did it for the Droid Incredible, I hope they do it for the Rezound. I miss the look of that back.

    HTC Thunderbolt, meet the Rezound 1620mAh

    Today I stopped by my local Verizon Corporate store to discuss some issues I've had with my T-Bolt. Mainly I've had an issue with data dropping randomly, especially while wirelessly tethering. They told me that it's a known issue, looked it up in the system, decided that a Sim swap was the...

    Every time I discount this phone...

    I end up seeing more and more how awesome it is. I'm holding out for a chance to check out the Nexus, but today's experience didn't help. I really want a Razr again. The UI is super super smooth. I never thought that I'd use an Android UI that smooth. Sense is probably 90% as smooth as...

    Saving my gift cards/reward zone coupons

    I'm really interested in this tablet and thanks to my Thunderbolt I'm close to getting it. BB screwed me over on my purchase of a Thunderbolt. They won't price match cell phones unless it's under contract. I understand terms and conditions and had they said that to me then I'd have simply...

    Droid Charge Ad's start appearing online.

    Upgrade available on the 20th!

    So I'm super stoked about potentially getting the Thunderbolt. I know it's not dual-core and comes in at $249.99 but I don't care. 1. Sense is awesome, IMHO 2. HTC makes quality handsets 3. The 1GHz chip that is in it is a power house 4. DLNA support and an official renderer attachment...

    Root Looking for some help and direction.

    I'd like to try Apex 1.3 on my Droid X but I'm running version 2.3.151. I know that Apex requires either the leak or official OTA but I'd like to know my best and safest route. I'd like some good instruction on updating to the OTA, keeping root or re-rooting after the update. Installation of...

    Accessories Powemat

    Anyone here using the powermat? If so, how do you like it? Have you successfully modified any cases to allow it to fit? Does the nub on the side bug you? I'm curious to see what others think. Thanks

    New to the Droid X

    Well, I just traded my Droid Incredible + Accessories for a Droid X last night. Reason's for the trade? 1. 4.3" screen 2. Battery life 3. HDMI 4. Powermat accessory 5. Build Quality I was hoping someone can help me get situated. I'm looking into rooting my phone, not sure I care about...

    Giving credit where it's due

    As a Droid Incredible owner I must that the Droid 2 screen is VERY sharp and makes mine look soft. My wife is very happy with the phone and the battery is impressive. I got her the desk dock tonight and she loves it too. Would I trade my phone for it? No, I'm waiting for a 4g Windows Phone 7...

    Ordered one for the wife

    Well, at first she was getting the Droid Pro but now she's getting the Droid 2. It's on it's way from Verizon, we got it when we signed up for the new Family Share Plan. Basically it's the same plan we had but VZW does a $20 discount for each data package. We pay 0.01 more and get unlimited...

    Just ordered one for my wife

    I just signed my wife and I up for the new $139.99 family share plan. It doesn't save us money on our current setup, but it does get her a smartphone with all the bells and whistles. Our bill went up 0.01 so I can't complain. She currently uses an EnV Touch with data blocked. She will get a...

    Accessories Got my Otterbox replacement and...

    My defender series replacement arrived today and I haven't opened it. After reading reports from other individuals I'm not sure my issues have been resolved. So I'm trying to figure out what to do. Do I keep it? I waited so long for this case and at the end of my first week with it I feel...

    Accessories Defender unpacking

    Otterbox Defender So far so good. EDIT: So after my first evening with the case I thought I'd post my initial impressions. The case is a dust/lent magnet but this is no different than other silicone cases I've seen. I've had some issues with the screen protector sticking to my phantom...

    Accessories Trident Kraken

    So I reached out to Trident today and they responded, although I'm a bit confused after seeing their FB page. Here's an image of the Kraken for the Incredible. Second, a rep told me via email that the first shipments should arrive and be in stock early next week. However I read on their FB...

    Accessories White Back

    So I decided to get the white back for the Incredible. I've been rocking it naked waiting on the Defender series case for 6 months now. I figured I may as well embrace it and make it stand out! It's the end of the first day with it and I'm happy with it. Looks great and I don't mind the...

    Apparently Android 2.2 had recently been sent to my phone. I guess they never got the memo, I've been running 2.2 for awhile now :D

    Touchscreen

    Well, if entering the title to this thread didn't give me reason enough to confirm my impressions of the Droid X and Droid 2's touchscreen compared to the Incredible. Similar Threads: From Droid X forum - "Touchscreen Lag?" From Droid X forum - "Touchscreen unresponsive" So I had to take my...
