Motorola Admiral :: Automatically Disable Buttons During Typing?

Apr 19, 2012

improve the design of all motorola droid phones with qwerty keyboards, to make it even more attractive to former blackberry users. i am a person who switched from blackberry to the motorola pro+ which has exactly the same keyboard as admiral, but the admiral is more popular.

problem: during fast typing on a motorola phone, accidentally pressing a button (such as search) will cause an interruption. this can be annoying if this happens repeatedly while writing a long email on the phone. the button bar is very close to the keyboad. fast typists (me on Internet: 75 wpm on phone) get frustrated, when they mistype a key that causes an interruption. this interruption flaw even more frustrating for good thumb typists that can type without looking. business users and power users are the ones that give recommendations about phones, so this would be a useful to address.

the buttons (zenu/home/back/search), and the microphone button, should be automatically disabled (for a brief moment, like 1/2 second) when typing is detected. that way, accidental presses of the buttons during fast buttons, don't cause an interruption while typing an email or text message. this could be a configurable setting, to accomodate different users.this would be a relatively unobtrusive improvement to the phone software. people don't generally hit buttons mere milliseconds after pressing keyboard keys. when the user stops fast typing, the buttons are automatically reenabled.(the delay can be extremely brief, such as 500 milliseconds or less.) so that users won't notice this change except for dramatically reduced interruptions == this could mean more good reviews for motorola keyboard phones!

precedent: the apple iphone does a similiar trick for the microphone button in its on-screen keyboarrd, if you're typing fast, then accidentally pressing the microphone button doesn't interrupt you.i would like motorola to make this improvement, or perhaps help google add this improvement to future versions of android, for future physical-keybaord phones.

Motorola Admiral :: Disable DC Completely On It?

Jan 12, 2012

I have no use for Direct Connect on my admiral. I don't know a single person who I can use it with. I've turned it off in the settings, but is there some way to remove the icon from my icon tray? And I'd also love to be able to change the functionality of the DC hardware button.

Motorola Admiral :: Disable Text-message Pseudo-correction?

Nov 8, 2012

The text-messaging app or underlying UI aggressively corrupts my messages. For example, if I enter "/tmp/" as part of a URL, this is changed to "/top/". The software fights to maintain this corruption, so that I have to enter a blank-space and then delete it to maintain the actual string that I want. I want to disable this corruption.ne of the first things that i did with this hand-set was to change the settings for the hardware and virtual keyboards, to disable auto-correction; those settings appear to be as I left them.

Motorola :: V9x Possible To Reassign Touch Screen Buttons Or Disable Vibrate Alert?

Aug 2, 2010

I have been playing with this phone for a week or so and there are a couple of things that bug me. First of all is the annoying vibration every time you touch the screen or any side buttons.Can the vibration be disabled? Secondly, I hate the default touch screen functions like music, video and pictures. I use none of these.I want to have a button that shows the recent call list from the outer screen.I can do this when I have missed a call, but how can I change or add this function to the outer screen so I can see my missed calls whenever I want not just when I have a recent missed call.I use the phone with a headset most of the time which is why I would like to do this without opening the flip.

Motorola Admiral :: Admiral Ends Call With Power Button

Jan 17, 2012

I like this feature especially when driving, however, could it be modified to first wake the screen if it's blank then wait for a second press to end the call? If a notification appears during a call, there's no way to see it without hanging up on the caller.

Motorola Admiral :: Alarm On Admiral Not Making Any Sound Occasionally

Feb 20, 2012

I've had a strange, but very frustrating behavior on my phone twice recently. My alarm will go off, but it will not make any sound whatsoever. I have the app alarm clock extreme and the regular android alarm. During this time, neither will make any sound. The default alarm will vibrate, but alarm clock extreme will not - although it should. A soft reset will fix the problem. Additionally, my ringtones will not make any sound when someone is calling. I'm trying to remember how the behavior was this morning, but I feel like pressing the volume up and down keys while the alarm was going off first snoozed my alarm, but then beeped to let me know the volume level.

Motorola Admiral :: Admiral Freezes/lags When Dialing/redialing

Mar 27, 2012

My Admiral freezes/lags when dialing/redialing and the Touchscreen is unresponsive. Its really bad on missed calls. I can hit the green dial icon 20 times in a row and nothing happens. Finally wait for about 30-60 seconds and it will dial.

I routinely reboot. Not running alot of apps. Latest firmware. I've also noticed the browser is slow to render webpages no matter how fast the connection is.

Motorola Admiral :: Bluetooth Disconnect / Reconnects On Admiral

Aug 16, 2012

Just got a Sprint Admiral, paired my bluetooth with it easily enough (Blueant T1), but at random, the phone will disconnect and reconnect bluetooth.I have actually watched the bluetooth icon go dark, then light back up so I know it is not an issue with the earpiece itself. It is becoming very annoying, and talking to others who have this phone, they have reported the same issue with other bluetooth earpieces.

Motorola Admiral :: MOTOACTV App Not Compatible With Admiral?

Apr 20, 2012

I just recently bought the Motorola MOTOACTV because I have the Motorola Admiral, and they are supposed to be able to work together. However Google Play states that the Motorola Admiral and the MOTOACTV app are not compatible. And while the latest release states that the MOTOACTV app should work with all Android 2.1 and higher, the Motorola rep that I called (level two, ID 5545142) states that the app will only work with the RAZR, which is contrary to everything put out about the MOTOACTV. I'd be interested to know if this is correct.

Xseries :: Nokia X2 - How To Disable Media Buttons

Aug 19, 2010

Is there any way of disabling the media buttons on the side? (play/pause, previous, next). Or to set them to operate only with long press. Or to set them to trigger something rather harmeless. My father doesn't use them that much. Besides, he finds himself pressing them too easily and oops there it goes the radio blasting through the loudspeaker.

BB Bold :: Automatically Disable ALL Data On 9780

Jul 22, 2011

I am on the Mobilicity network which has a bit spotty coverage in some areas and the phone can roam several times a day for a short time when traveling about the city or when on the edge of coverage. My Mobilicity plan has unlimited data while in their native network but the roaming rates for data are extremely high. It is surprising how quickly the charges add up when out of coverage for a very short time. Selecting Disable Data While Roaming turns off the BB data while roaming, but not WAP data. I would like to automatically disable ALL data while roaming so that when out of coverage there will be no data charges but when back in coverage the phone will have access to all data services. I realize that the phone could be set to the Mobilicity network only but I wish to be available by phone and SMS, even when out of Mobilicity coverage. I would like the operation to be automatic since this situation is not quite the same as going for an international trip and it is impractical / incovenient to manually turn the data services on and off manually throughout the day.Is there a setting in the 9780 or a connection manager app that would take care of all of the data connections while going in and out of roaming?

Feb 17, 2012

It's actually starting to get annoying. what is happening is the downloaded ringtones that i have had for about 4 phones now are not working correctly, but thats not the weird part. the thing is its only for CALLS, and thats it. Any kind of phone call ringtone (default or contact) is not working after about half a day of being unplugged from the charger, and the only way to correct this is restart the phone. is anyone else having this problem? It also seems it does it to the ringtones that came with the phone, but just phone calls. TXT, facebook
