The Data manager in settings says i have used 1.6Gb in 4 days.however the Virgin Mobile (my carrier) account website says i have used 160 Mb which one is correct?I have a limit of 1.3Gb per month.if my phone is telling the truth, at .2c per Kb excess, i will owe virgin mobile $60.
I have the Motorola Task Manager installed on my froyo. Unfortunately I can't uninstall it, so I'm left with what at first looked like a very good Task Manager. I use a programme called PowerAmp Android. It is a music app. I doesn't matter what I do; not add it to auto close, not adding associated programmes to auto close, the programme ALWAYS closes down my player two minutes after the screen is turned off.
I can keep the screen on while I listen to my music, but that has obvious side effects.
I have upgraded my defy yesterday morning and then it hang 3-4 times. So I did factory reset yesterday night. But now also problem remains it hangs some time, the new upgrade has Task Manager, but it keeps showing CPU: 100% alert. I wonder if only my maps and browser is open, why does it show the sign? Now also while I am typing this from mobile, it is giving same alert with only browser running. Isn't it made for multi-tasking? And also (problem not of topic) my market's page doesn't upgrade itself. It keeps running on old format.
I just downloaded the desktop manager for my new windows 7 machine - I use outlook. When I try to configure my data files. an error message tells me it "cannot locate message stores" Does any know where my outlook data exists in the windows 7 world? I cannot locate it.
I am using the 200MB per month T-Mobile plan. I have used the Motorola DEFY for about four months now and haven't had a problem with it randomly using massive amounts of data at once. My bill recycles every 27th of the month, and a couple days ago, my phone used up 100 MB of data in one day. According to the phone usage app, the phone was continously using data during the hours I was asleep (even though the WiFi is ON). This has never happened before, and I am almost at my 200 MB limit because the phone keeps using data. At this rate I will hit 200MB probably this week, waaay before the 27th and I don't want to be charged for the extra data that I didn't even use. I tried going to Settings --> Data Manager --> Data --> and Background Data and Data Roaming were UNCHECKED. But whenever I go to #932#, my data usage keeps creeping up and up.
Having a limited data plan (1GB/month) and in order to save battery, I tried many APN manager/data switcher, but none was that good.Which one do you use that correctly works with D2G and doesn't break connection?
i've got this "H" icone above a a up and down arrow and i want to disable it for ever! i do use internet through wifi all the time and this icon pops in when i turn off wifi/bluetouth/gps. on the motorola galaxy something i've seen an option that disable this 3G thing but i can't find it on the defy.
bought my Defy+ in Norway a week ago. Everything except internet connection from mobile service provider works fine. Bluetooth, internet on wifi, sms etc. I have checked all the buttons for data, data roaming, visibilty etc, that is all I could find. Is there som "secret" button somewhere I may have overlooked? The SIM-card works fine on Internet also in a Samsung phone.
my Defy+ does also reboot. Let me explain what i already tryed.i am a T-Mobile Germany user and have a data plan called Web`n`walk flat wich only allows for webtraffic eg ports 80/443 basically.- I got the Handset replaced 2 times, however the handsets i got where not new they where "repaired" whatever that means. So i did not send mine and had to wait, actualy they replaced it at my door. So 3 different handset where the last one is the worst one. Anyway -> no difference.
- Under my contract i do have 2 SIM cards and i ask them to replace the older one with a new one so i tested 3 different SIM cards where the last once where n3 and n4 -> no difference
- delivered 2gb SD card, Samsung class2 8Gb, new Samsung 16 Gb class10, formated the 16Gb in the handset -> no difference
- 2.3.4 and 2.3.6 which i got some time at the second handset as OTA Update -> no difference
- 2 different MOTOBlur accounts -> no difference
- factory reset/cache wipe -> no difference Even i experience the reboots strait after the factory reset within the start wizzard eg on the Screen where you turn on Data Usage.
- turn data connection to 2G only -> no difference
But now:
- if i turn off DataUsage keep the phone connection active and just stay on WiFi -> no reloads for hours/days?
As the last handset keeped restarting at my house as well i connected it to the adb and capture some kernel logs.... the system dies with Kernel Panic and restarts.Here we go with an example. It is just the panic lines and a bit above. I dont understand that mutch of linux kernel debugging however. I required i could do more logs. (only without root as the phone is on the 2.3.6 kernel ROM)
I am using motorola defy for the past two months. I am from India I have a small problem with my device.I am unable to turn off "All mobile data"I unchecked the "all mobile data" check box, but still the E symbol is present on top.when I went back and saw the data delivery filed the option is again checked(Tick mark on All mobile data)here is where I made changes:settings-> data delivery-> all mobile dataIs there any problem with the service provider or there is any problem with the mobile.I want to solve this issue without doing factory reset.
I received the 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) OTA update for my Droid Razr on Tuesday morning July 3, 2012. The install was uneventful. One feature of the previous operating system I use frequently is File Manager. I noticed that after the OTA update to ICS that the feature to "Move" does not work, or at least doesn't allow me to move files from Internal Storage to the SD Card. I searched the Forums and didn't find any discussions about File Manager not working the same in ICS as it did in Ginger Bread. I read the numerous marketing guides and preparation documents that were published on the Motorola Razr website and didn't read anything about File Manager changing. I downloaded the new Razr Operating Guide for ICS and found no discussion about File Manager being different.
I tried Motorola Live Chat and ended up getting referred to Level 2 Tech Support. I have powered the device off and on numerous times in the last 48 hours. I have also done a Power + Volume Down restart but the Move option is still not working. Specifically, I can select a file from a folder in Internal Phone Storage and select Move. I can press the Back arrow-key but as soon as I am back at the File Manager main screen (so I can select SD Card), the option to Move disappears. If I press SD Card (like I did before with Ginger Bread) the Move button does not reappear at the bottom of the page.
I've been using my Bionic for about 24 hrs now (pretty heavy useage) and only 3 items show up in the "Battery and Data Manager":
Southwest Airlines App (96%)
Cell Standby (2%)
Phone Idle (2%)
That's it. I've used about 30 different apps and I've had WiFi on and off, I've been on LTE and switched to CDMA only for a bit. I've tried out the GPS, used Google Talk, the browser and a bunch of other stuff that I know takes up battery life and I want to know what is killing the battery? Is there a fix for the Battery and Data Manager or somewhere else on the phone I can look for this info?
My Motorola Defy w/o blur is not connecting to internet via USB to my PC. What could I do ? LAN and Modem settings are OK. Then why it is showing error 692 as "MODEM hardware error". Pls show me a solutio
I have been trying to explore these options as it is said that it works either ways. But not sure how to get it..The text to speech settings has " Install voice data" grayed out. Should I use a third party app to enable these options? But my understanding is Defy has this enabled and its a built in app....
I have updated my Defy's software using the official Motorola Software Update software. The update process passed through but at the end the phone not booted.
The error message is the following:
Bootloader
09.10
Err:A5,69,35,00,27
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
I have even tried to reset with: Vol Down + Power + right down tap. But the small droid doesn't come up. Do I have to bring it to the service? I need my phone every day for work..
Everytime I try and add my LinkedIn account in MotoBlur, I get an error message "Error, An error has occured. Please try again." I can login just fine online. Anyone know what may be causing this?
I know this thread is a year old, but I have to drag it up again as it seems Motorola haven't dealt with this problem yet. I have owned a Defy since a few weeks. I have a German vodafone contract which gives me a data roaming flatrate for several countries including Italy, where I am a lot of the time. And this roaming warning is driving me insane!! It pops up about 50 times a day (I live in an area with weak connection, so my phone loses the network sometimes, but finds it again after a few seconds, and up pops this warning), turns the screen on, drains the battery. It also pops up continually while I am driving and using the phone as a navigator, so I have to continually check "yes" so I can see the screen again, which can be pretty dangerous if you are driving on winding mountain roads...
My phone has multiple resets ad the direction of Motorola, and has been in for a circuit board replacement.Now the screen still freezes and the reception is hopeless.I am sure this handset is a lemon.It is still under warranty, 11 months old.
setting up auto-fetching applies to all email accounts. I swear on my 2.1 Spice XT300, the auto-retrieval was by email address (and also the smallest interval between fetches was 5 minutes, not 15 like on the Defy). I have never used 2.1 on the Defy; mine was original 2.2.1.
I updated to Froyo via Motorola website but it hasn't worked. My phone still shows firmware 2.1.1. Tried to update again via Motorola website but it now tells me that there are no updates for my phone.....I presume that it somehow detects that my phone previously downloaded froyo update.
My Defy is denied application on the market with no reason that I understand.Some apps are not visible from the phone, and are said "non compatible" from the market website. Sometime the website talks of country restriction while they should not be.
I have had my defy now for a few months, and I have been pretty happy with it (babyproof smartphone!)Unfortunately, its becoming more and more unreliable, and am having to reboot it regularly.This weekend is the worst. Here are some of the things it is doing:
all apps keep freezing and crashing (no fancy apps, mostly use it for twitter, facebook etc).phone keeps freezing and being unresponsible on the home screen keep getting an 'emergency calls only' notification, which then clears straight away when i go into notifications.mms photos - both sent and received take up to 5 days to be visible. until then they are just flagged as 'downloading'. I'm pretty sure it shouldn't take 5 days to download a 27kb file.After rebooting, I did have a gmail widget require a forced close immediately. I was never using that widget anyway, and couldn't see it, so I uninstalled it. Now on rebooting I have to force close Google Services Framework. I have decided that looks reasonably important and useful and have declined to uninstall that so far.
I have a my Defy & XT and as of 9:22 am the weather widget hasn't udated and I've turned the phone off and on etc and then I deleted my location and tried to readd it and it said something like.. location information cannot be found (not sure off hand).. I don't know what to do but it won't let me add any loactions but apps from the market work.
I just bought an atrix 2 and have downloaded zumocast on it and my computer.My phone says my computer is online.When I click on my PC on the home menu of zumocast app a message appears labeled "resource error" 'my pc name' could not be opened because there was an error retrieving the data from the server.Please try again."After I click ok I can go to my music tab and see all the available music but cannot download it.When I click on a song and choose download,a message appears " resource unavailable" 'song title' could not be opened because the server 'pc name' is not connected." I've tried setting my IE security to the lowest and it still wont work.I've also gone into mafee and turned netgaurd off for zumocast and still the same errors.I've also turned the firewall protection all the way off and it still doesnt work. How do I get zumocast to work?
After the kitkat 4.4.2 AT&T update, I've been having an issue where the icon for Data Manager will show up very briefly in my notification bar and/or notification windows if I have it open. It goes away too quick for me to see what its doing, but I do recognize the icon. See pic for exact icon.
My girlfriend and I both have Bberry torch (9800). I have updated her Bberry with the Desktop Manager a couple of days ago and for some reason, the update took a lot more time than usual (more than the whole afternoon). I know it was frozen, but I didn't want to loose any software info and have problems with a half-updated device. But, at the end of day, I had no other options, and I had to reboot the update again. Luckily, I had done my back up prior to this.
And as expected, after the successful update, I had lost all my personal data due to the failure of the first update attempt. Therefore, I uploaded the back up in the device, and all personal data came back (lucky me).However, the information in the password manager application is all gone.
