Motorola Droid 2 :: Unable To Keep Phone Alive For Even Half A Day Anymore

Aug 11, 2011

After months of dealing with mediocre battery longevity, both of my D2G batteries seem to be unable to keep the phone alive for even half a day anymore.I suspect one of the major titles on board, recently updated, is drawing resources which are causing my battery to drop to about 30% within seven hours of standby time.I even found this to be the case in Safe Mode.Nothing seems to stop this phone from drawing excessive current.When I was in Eastern Europe, recently, the phone was used only through WiFi.Battery life was much, much better, and this proved that 3G reception was by far the biggest energy thief.WiFi is no slouch in energy draining capacity, but without the 3G radio in the on position, my D2G did very well on a single charge.

But under current conditions, I'd have to have a backup battery (or charging source) with me at all times.I hope this problem can be rectified, or I will join the growing population of those who seems to regard D2G as a failed model.

Motorola Droid 4 :: Bluetooth Volume Stuck At Half But Says Full

Jun 6, 2012

Sometimes - not always - when I connect my phone to any Bluetooth audio device the Bluetooth volume (by design I believe) drops to half volume. When I hit the Volume Up button the bar will move up in a weird, sporatic way and never actually get louder, however it will eventually show full volume. Sometimes when I hit the Volume Down button it'll shoot all the way back down to half volume with one button press and I can then press Volume Up again to actually turn up the sound. Most other times it will shoot down to the bottom and never change volume until it's completely muted - so it'll jump from 50% volume to silent right at the end.

It doesn't happen every time - just about once every 10 or so times. This has happened to me with two different RAZR Maxx phones and I've seen my roommates RAZR do the same thing on a couple different Bluetooth devices.

I'm hoping the ICS update will fix it but the bug made it through the last OTA update.

Motorola Droid Turbo :: Left Half Of Screen Freezes Randomly Since OTA

Dec 16, 2014

- Left half of screen randomly freezes while on.

Once this 'feature' activates, the right half of the screen will be updated, but at a very choppy rate. Only resolution is to reboot the phone.

Doesn't appear to have any correlation to apps I'm running. Has happened running Waze, gmail, and simply flipping through home screens.

This happens at least 2 to 3 times a day, and started happening after receiving the OTA on Saturday. Have had the 64GB version since mid-November. Has been rock solid until this past weekend.

Tried wiping the cache partition, but issue still occurs.

Motorola Droid Razr :: Lower Half Of Screen Flashing At Times?

Nov 30, 2012

So, for the past few days, when I wake up in the morning, I have found that the lower half of my screen is flashing. I use the AlarmDroid app and have done so since I got the device in February, so I didn't think that this would be the cause. It will flicker for a while, then eventually stop, so I can't just take it to erizon and show it to them. It only seems to do it first thing in the morning when I wake up (plugged into the charger). I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, but no change. The only thing I can think of is that a couple of weeks ago my phone would not restart, so I had to reset to factory defaults. This started after I did the factory reset.

Motorola Droid Razr :: Screen Alone Causing More Than Half Of Battery Drain

Sep 24, 2012

Below is a screen shot from my Maxx. I don't know if the screen consumption is ordinary, but I am surprised that the screen alone is causing substantially more than half of the battery drain. I have the brightness set on auto, and I turn the screen off every time after I finish using the phone. Is this consumption normal?

Motorola Droid Razr :: Facebook Friends Updates Takes Almost Half Day To Show Up

Oct 30, 2012

How often the "My Gallery" updates does it? I mean I guess I'm noticing that after friends' have published their photos on facebook its almost taking 2hrs before "My Gallery" shows up. Some of my friends update takes almost half a day to show up and other friends show up pretty immediately....so very random. And believe me I've reformatted the Cell Phone and removed my Facebook acct and cleared app data/cache and sometimes it works but not all the time.

How can I remove just the "email account on My Gallery". After a reformat occurs you can set up your Facebook Account "Gallery" to syncronize to, of course, your cell phone within My Gallery. You can add/remove Facebook all you want but it seems the "My Gallery" option is greyed out; once you activate it I cannot find a way to dis engage it.

Nokia Lumia :: 800 Phone Is Unable To Get Any 3G Signal Anymore

Aug 8, 2012

I want to report a bug after the last update on Lumia 800.

Product code: 059M3C1
Carrier: TIM SW variant ID232 v.06
OS Version: 7.10.8773.98
Firmware revision number: 1750.0805.8773.12220

The phone is unable to get any 3G signal anymore (Tested on the following cities: Bucharest, Constanta, Timisoara, in Romania, the cities are like 300/500km distance between each other), I get the "H" symbol (before I had 3G), also "Internet Sharing" is not working at all, even though I can connect to the Internet via Cellular. I've tested with and without WiFi signal, the error I get is: "Connection not shared" - There's no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again.I have 4 bars out of 5 signal, and active internet connection.

Motorola Droid Razr :: Can't Take Screenshot Anymore

Nov 23, 2012

Suddenly I can't take a screenshot. I hold Power and press Volume Down and the volume goes down. I keep trying and it goes mute. Nothing I do fixes this. Isn't there some kind of cache I can clear, like Dalvik cache?

I've had volume problems on this phone since I got it, usually just the volume going completely silent even if it shows halfway on media or phone, no matter which output (earpiece, speaker, headphones, bluetooth), and the only fix was to stop all media, go to the homescreen, turn the phone volume down until it mutes, then turn it back up and resume the media.

However, a few days ago when this problem happened again, I couldn't get the volume out of media mode even after stopping the media and going to the homescreen. I couldn't get it to mute or go to vibrate using the volume buttons. I had to Menu > System Settings > Sound > Volumes and manually set phone to mute then turn it back up. Now I can't take a screenshot.

Something is screwed up in the software, either corrupted in the system software or screwed up in the cache; I can't figure it out, but I blame Motorola for poor programming, considering I haven't run into any of these problems on the Galaxy Nexus, as well as the other volume problems I've had on this phone (Bluetooth and headset too loud at the lowest volume, earpiece too quiet at the highest... why can't Motorola have the same volumes across outputs?!).

Motorola Droid 2 :: Doesn't Register On PC Anymore

Jul 26, 2012

Ok so when I plug my Droid 2 R2D2 edition into my laptop, nothing hppens. It used to work fine, but now when I try absolutely nothing happens. It doesn't make the noise indicating I've just plugged soemthing into the USB drive, I've tried both USB drives, it works with my PC so I know it's not the cord, plus I use the same cord connected to an outlet adapter to charge it and it works fine but all of the sudden when I plug it into my laptop I get nothing. It doesn't charge, I go to my computer it doesn't show up, I scan for devices I get nothing, I've tried updating motocast and motohelper, and it still doesn't work but like i said it used to work fine, plus this is a brand new phone i recently got a replacment and even after i got the replacment phone it worked fine the first like 20 times I connected it to my laptop, nothings changed. I've got a Dell Inspirion running Windows 7 if that makes a difference but as I've stated nothings changed since the last few times it worked successfully.

Motorola Droid X :: GPS Doesn't Work Anymore - Not Getting Signals

May 16, 2011

My GPS worked splendidly for about a year with the Droid X. Now it really doesn't work at all. On Google Maps the circle never goes below a kilometer, and even with that it is usually wrong. When I try and use it to Navigate, it never tells me where to turn and I get lost because it isn't getting a signal.

I checked, and all settings were on for GPS. I restarted the phone and pulled the battery. I installed GPS Status and tried to Manage A-GPS state. First I reset, and that didn't work. Then I Downloaded and that didn't work either. The app thinks it is doing something but no satellites show up and the radar even outdoors and even not moving.

Motorola Droid 3 :: Doesn't Have Lock Screen Anymore?

Dec 1, 2011

My Droid 3 no longer has a lock screen. It used to have a lock screen when I first got it but now all it does is sometimes shows me blips of the lock screen and then goes to whatever I had open last. I've tried putting a password on thinking that would fix it - but it didn't. So what do you think is wrong with my phone?

Motorola Droid Bionic :: Unable To Adjust In-call Volume While Phone Is Against Ear

Sep 21, 2011

In the past - namely when I owned the Droid X - while in a call, I was able to press the volume up and volume keys successfully to adjust the in-call volume while I held the phone to my ear. Albeit the screen was turned off, the volume adjustment responded properly. I find now with the Bionic that I cannot adjust the volume while the phone is against my ear and that I actually have to move the phone far enough away from my face in order for the screen to turn back on and allow for the volume to be adjusted.

This causes me to miss part of the conversation, Matt can this be adressed or is there a setting I am missing?

Motorola Droid Turbo :: Automation Apps Can't Turn Of Mobile Data Anymore?

Jul 16, 2015

After the 5.1 upgrade, my automation apps can't turn off mobile data anymore. That was how I was stopping beeps while I was sleeping. How do I get the phone to go completely silent except for phone calls overnight?

My goal: phone goes silent during set night hours; the only thing that can get it to make noise is a phone call or alarm. It would also be convenient to be able to toggle that mode on or off manually. I need it to be 100% effective in shutting up every single app and beep, and so far the only way I've found to do that is to turn off all data connections.

Would the new 5.1 "Downtime" option fix this problem? On the Interruptions settings page, I could set only phone calls to be priority interruptions, and then set only priority interruptions to come up during quiet hours. Would that really stop all apps, or just those that play nice? Can't seem to trigger that downtime time manually, though.

I've been using Battery drain analyzer free to set up a silent mode at night. It has a simple night and day setting, where at a set time, it can turn things off or on. So every night at bedtime, it turns off wifi, sync, and mobile data, so the only things that could really happen are phone calls and text messages. (I'd like to silence texts, too, but have not figured that out.) Then it all comes back on at a set time in the morning. Simple and straightforward -- that's all I want. It's also convenient to be able to hit the "night" button if I go to bed early or sleep past the usual wakeup time, or to hit the "day" button if I wake up early.

But with the update to 5.1, that app doesn't automatically turn off mobile data anymore. I've also noticed that my Power Toggles notification bar button no longer turns off mobile data with one click; instead it sends me to the settings page for mobile data, where I click again to turn off mobile data. There's no option in Automate It, either.I'm guessing that this is a settings change in 5.1.

IPhone 5c :: Dead At 50% Battery - Can't Get It To Stay Alive For More Than Two Hours

Aug 26, 2014

For the past few days my iphone 5c has been giving me all kinds of battery problems. Yesterday it died at 40% and today it died at 50%. I read online that calibrating the battery works but it did no good to me. I purchased my phone of December of 2013 and there has been no significant damage (water, drops.etc) but yet i still can't get it to stay alive for more than two hours! Is this something that apple is willing to work with me on? Is this problem so simple that a battery change will fix it?

Info:
iPhone 5c, iOS 7.1.2, battery life shortage

IPhone 5 :: The Bottom Half Of The Display Is Less Bright Than The Upper Half

Aug 21, 2014

I'm having issues with the brightness of the screen of my iphone 5.

The bottom half of the display is less bright than the upper half.

It came into contact with water but not in a high amount, about five drops hit the iphone and I dried them imminently away.

I still got the protection plan active, but it would be better if I could fix it right away. Â Â

LG G3 :: Android 5.0.1 - Half Blank Screen Upon Incoming Phone Calls?

Feb 21, 2015

I love my G3 and have had no negative issues with the new Android, except for this one. When I receive a call, the bottom half of the screen is blank/black. I'm able to answer and end a call only because I know where the icons are, they still work but I just can't see them. Upon ending the call, the whole screen comes back. It's only on incoming calls that I've had this issue (although, I don't use too many apps so don't know if it's occurring elsewhere). I do not root my devices.

Motorola :: EM330 - Top Half Of Exterior Display Is Cut Off

Jun 9, 2011

I have a MOTO EM330 which I've had for about 1.5 years now. Starting last night, the top half of the exterior display (i.e., the outer cover display that shows when the clamshell is closed) is cut off. Only the lower half of the digital time characters are visible. At the top of the exterior display, I can see just the top edge of the icons that I know are there (signal strength, battery charge, etc.). I also see a flickering LCD segment to the left of the time characters, and there are a few thin "veins" radiating from the lower left corner of the exterior display, with some tiny brown spots clustered around them.Turning the phone off and on again, and removing/replacing the battery has had no effect.The interior display is working fine. Only the exterior (cover) display has the cut-off problem.I don't remember dropping the phone.

A blue triangle next to the 1x symbol. ALso showed wireless net detected symbol. I cannot interact with the screen. But the sd card can mount in Windows. Also says No Service.Is this anything of interest to folks in troubleshooting DX issues? Or a clear indicator that they have disabled this phone?
