Mar 10, 2012
Is there a way to increase the sampling rate of Accelerometer values? I use the HIGHEST tag in the android and it gives me a sampling rate of 50Hz.Are there any new drivers or anything else that may allow me to go further, say till 100Hz?

Does anyone know of an app or way to use the accelerometer to flip the screen upside down? I have a speaker dock that has you flipping the phone on its top to dock. If it were any other phone it'd be ok because the ports are normally on the side duty ours Arnt. Its a Phillips speaker dock.

Is there a way to change the rate at which the notifications light blinks? I'd like it to blink a tad bit more frequently/quickly but I can't figure out how to do that.

Where do I obtain the latest Motorola Bluetooth drivers for ALL the features on my Droid Razr? Only a couple BT features are working. I know there is GET HELP, Drivers, and a Motorola driver page for USB and Charging drivers. MotoCast is installed (and updated) and provided the necessary USB and Charging drivers. I know there is a Motorola program called MotoHelper 5.4.0. I have used these resources but they have not solved the problem with bluetooth peripheral device drivers. The message my Lenovo T61/Windows Vista computer gives me is: contact your device manufacturer for assistance getting this device installed.

I'm trying to have the phone storage locations (internal and optional micro SD card installed) show up in My Computer to be able to transfer files. My OS is Windows XP SP3.I have installed the latest version 2.3.4 of the"Motorola Device Manager" software.The install goes fine. There are no "Plug phone in now" kind of prompts, but the installer says the program is installed and will launch whenever I plug in the phone.So when I unlock and plug in the phone, the MDM icon shows up in the system tray, and the Windows "Welcome to the Found New Hardware Wizard" comes up. Hmmm...did the software installer install the drivers or not?If I click Next, the message "The hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software."So I go back and change the selection to "install from a list or specific location", then specify to look in C:WINDOWSsystem32 (which usually works for most things)

I want to know if the D3 can connect to wireless headphones and a bluetooth heart rate monitor simultaneously? I am thinking about purchasing a bodymedia link arm band and I would like to use this while also using LG HBS-700 bluetooth headphones. How does it work?

I am running the DROIDX, Android 2.3, on Verizon. For my problem I have coined the term "Ghost Fingers" because the major symptom is my touch screen reacting to input that doesn't exist. I have been unable to link a pattern of occurrence or duration to any combination of external circumstances. Though I have noticed that symptoms seem to flair after hours and the condition in general has been deteriorating. The symptoms occur independently of any apps running. The condition has survived two o.s. updates and a Master Reset (actually forced me to perform said reset). I do not currently have nor have I ever had root access. The summation of the aforementioned conditions has led me to the assumption that the drivers for my touch screen have been compromised and that I need to replace or rewrite that section of the kernel that translates position sensitive capacitive changes into computer commands.

If both Verizon phone and data service are discontinued, will a Droid Razr still function (especially, will internet access via Wi-Fi still function)?

I purchased the Moto Elite Sliver because my Plantronics Pro HD would drop its bluetooth every single time a call was answered or placed. I did a little research and found it may be related to a conflict with the 2.0 headset and 4.0 phone. Moto Sliver is BT 3.0 and was working great until this week. Now every single time a call is disconnected, the headset disconnects and reconnects. Reboots galore, problem still exists. Uninstall/reinstall Motospeak, problem still exists. Sometimes the bluetooth will not connect at all (reboot required). The Droid RAZR Maxx and the Elite Sliver are supposed to be state of the art MOTOROLA, I make a living with my phone and headset.

I have WiFi enabled. Often when I am near a wireless access point, my RAZR M still uses 4G. It's as if the WiFi is going to sleep when I power the screen off, but it doesn't wake up again. Turning WiFi off and on makes it reconnect.It seems to happen mostly when I'm at home, where I also use the Motorola flip stand with "ESP" smart charger, and a NetGear dual-band wireless router/access point.

The Verizon Sales assistant assured me that I'd be able to Sync my Outlook with my Droid Razr as easily as I synced it with my old Blackberry Tour. Now, after several days' worth of set-up, google searches, forum searches and FAQ's, I'm come to the conclusion that Motorola did NOT build this function into the Droid Razr, and I have to pay a hefty fee for a decent 3rd-party app to do what my Blackberry did for free. Have I missed something?

I frequently hit adjacent keys while texting on my old Droid X. A larger screen and of course 4G and a faster processor were appealing as well. As the Razr HD models sport screens almost as large as the S3 I ran to see them on their first day out of the gates. What a disappointment! Holding my old Droid X up against them I saw that the usable screen sizes were identical. Namely 4.3" unless playing videos in which case the video filled up the Razr HD's 4.7" screen. I couldn't find anything else that would fill up the screen. Perhaps, photos might. But internet browsing, texting and whatever else I tried occupied a 4.3" inset within the 4.7" screen. So why have a 4.7" screen at all? The Galaxy S3 on the other hand fills up the entire 4.8" screen with not only video but everything else, including texting, messaging, web browsing, and everything else I tried. So what gives? Why did you even create a 4.7" screen if you aren't going to utilize it to its full potential?

On Oct 20, we switched from AT&T to Verizon Wireless after being with AT&T for over 10 years. We had iPhones and had to get new phones when we switched. The Verizon salesperson convinced me and my adult daughter to get the RAZR HD that had just come out and he said it was better than the iPhone. My husband stayed with an iPhone because he is a commercial pilot and needed to use aviation apps that were not available on a DROID phone. Initially we were very impressed with the RAZR HD until my daughter had a problem with hers after just 20 days of use. She is an EMT and was on duty sitting in her ambulance. She has to have a phone on her while working. She used her phone several times and had it in her front pocket. She took the phone out of her pocket to call us and the screen was black and not functioning—a few minutes before it was working fine. She noticed some spider cracks in the LCD at the edge of the screen. She took the phone back to the store where it was purchased and the Verizon salesperson accused her of abusing/dropping it and said she would have to file an insurance claim which would cost $99. I was shocked. Our iPhones had heavy mobile use and were even dropped several times, including on cement, but never failed. I told our daughter we had no intention of filing an insurance claim for a defective product that should be covered under warranty. For all we know, it had damage before we even bought it from Verizon. But when she contacted Motorola, they said a screen failure due to a cracked screen was not covered but she could send it in to be evaluated. When we read the warranty, it does not say this. It says it doesn't cover damage caused by accidents, abuse, misuse, including improper usage or operation, abuse or neglect, or impact damage, such as dropping the phone. The phone had not been dropped, abused, or misused. There is not a scratch or any physical damage on the phone and the glass. The phone failed under normal use. The LCD screen under the glass fractured. Normal use should not cause this unless there was a manufacturer's defect in the phone. I.contacted my dad who works with digital and analog wireless technologies/hardware, and he told us to file a warranty claim. He said the phone has an accelerometer in it that detects G-force and impact and Motorola should provide us the data that shows the phone was impacted outside the tolerance thresholds for normal use. Well clearly Motorola and Verizon are just scamming customers and ripping them off. How convenient for Motorola to automatically tell a client all screen failures are due to customer damage. We should have stuck with iPhones and the AppleCare. Apple stands behind the quality of their products and would have never questioned replacing a phone for a defective LCD, i.e., no broken glass, just screen failure. You get a replacement on the spot. Oh but not Motorola—mail it in and then you are without a phone for how long??? We are going on 24 days now. Motorola got the phone and sent a picture of the phone screen (included) and said it was physically damaged—said it would cost $99 to fix—interesting how that is the same amount as the Verizon insurance deductible. Really--they are insulting my intelligence... I called them up and told them to provide me the accelerometer data—I wanted proof the phone was damaged by us and not defective. They still have the phone and have not responded to my request for over a week now. I told customer service that Motorola should be ready for a fight—we will file a report with the FTC and the BBB if they don't repair or replace the phone at no cost. I am very angry about this poor customer service. If we dropped the phone and cracked it up, well that is what insurance is for and that is why we bought the insurance. I would not expect Motorola to fix a phone for free if we broke it, but this is not the case and it is just outrageous. I am worried the same thing will soon happen to my RAZR HD which has overheated while it was charging. The phone is so thin that any expansion in the case is going to put pressure on the LCD. I am wondering how we are going to make it through a 2-year contract with Verizon when the Motorola phone can't even handle normal mobile use. I used my AT&T iPhone 3Gs for over 3 years before switching to Verizon and the RAZR HD and the iPhone still works well as a Smart device for email, photos and music. Clearly Apple has a superior product and also knows how to take care of customers. We called Motorola customer service again today since we aren't seeing any information online regarding the current status of our phone, and they couldn't even tell us what the status is. They have had the phone for over 2 weeks. If Motorola doesn't do what is right, they will lose us as customers. This is so frustrating.

I was facing problems similar to this ( Gallery crash after OTA ICS update )url..I followed the thread and did a factory reset.I now find that the problem is solved but the UI after factory reset is different from the original UI that came with ICS update. I kinda like previous UI. I am guessing it is Motoblur. Is there any way to get that back.

My Razr constantly detects a HDMI cable connection, even though there is no HDMI cable near it (not even a USB cable is connected). A popup keeps showing up asking me to "Select Dock Type". This has been really annoying, as I need to dismiss it every time it shows up. I can't find a way to disable the detection of the HDMI cable.
This problem started after 2 weeks into owning the phone, back in mid December. I called Verizon technical support. They thought it was a hardware defect, and sent me a replacement phone. However, when I received the phone, I found that it was a refurbished phone with a big scratch on the side. I returned it and kept my original one.
Other than this problem, everything runs great, and I love my Razr. My question is: has anyone seen this problem? I have learned to deal with it by dismissing the popup every time I unlock the screen. Can a future software update include a setting where I can disable the HDMI detection?

So it appears that Motorola may have sold through their stock of Heart Rate Moniotors, and not be restocking. I've been searching on line, and everyone is either out of stock (with no chance of restock), or running up the price extremly high.So I'm asking, is anyone using a differnet Heart Rate Monitor, or can anyone recommend a good alternate? I have an old polar HRM that I'm using, but I really would like to get this integrated with the MOTOACTV if I can...

For the past couple of weeks, I have had some problems with the HR display. The device will show my HR shifting rapidly from up to 209 BPM down to 0BPM and occasionally to no reading at all. This usually happens at the beginning of a workout and goes to normal after several minutes. I keep my chest strap very clean so I know that it isn't dirt and sweat disrupting transmission. When it first started I assumed that it was a sign of a dying battery but changing it didn't make a difference. This only happens during running and aerobic activities. With weight training and yoga there doesn't seem to be a problem.

I have migrated from a simple Timex heart rate monitor to the Motoactv and use it for running. I use the Motoactv Heart Rate Monitor. After 2 weeks of use I find a feature I miss is Heart Rate Recovery. When a workout was completed the Timex gave you the heart rate at completion and one minute later. The decline of heart rate in that one minute was a great indicator of overall heart health and a good metric for individual runs, especially long runs. Am I missing some setup info or is this metric missing?
Has anyone figured a practical workaround without too much fumbling at the end of a run or other workout?

I want to get a heart rate monitor strap to go with my Motoactv, which I love by the way. I went to the Motoactv site and to Amazon to get a Moroactve heart rate strap and they are out of stock. What should I do? Buy a Garman Ant+ HRM strap?Wait for a Motoactv HRM strap Or maybe sometime in the future we might actually be able to get the SF700 again?

I cannot seem to display heart rate percentage on my MOTOACTV.
On the options, I can only see options to display the heart rate in bpm. I used to have the garmin forerrunner and it was easy to do this. Does motoactv support this option?

I recently sold my Garmin 405 CX and bought the 16 GB MotoACTV. With it I purchased the Motorola Heart Rate Monitor Chest Strap. The main reason I sold the Garmin was because I was having trouble with the heart rate monitor. So after a couple of weeks of testing, I am having the same problem with the MotoACTV as I did with the garmin. When I first put on the strap, it seems to be reporting the correct Heart Rate. With in about 15 minutes of my workout, my heart rate starts to fall on the MotoACTV. Usually reporting somewhere around 45-50 BPM. My resting rate was around the mid 70's. I have tried all of the suggestions on many Internets sites including the link I referenced below. I even tried using a Polar Strap with the Motorola Transmitter to no avail. I've tried using the ultrasonic gel. Different placements on my body.[URL]I really like the MotoActv Device and all its features but I really need a heart rate monitor that works. I would prefer to not return the device. Several years ago I have a Polar and its Heart Rate monitor worked fine on me.I would not discount that fact that something about the ANT+ technology doesn't like my body. Since both the Garmin and MotoACTV both use this technology. And both has the same results.

I have been trying to use the heart rate monitor, and it keeps reporting my heart rate a lot lower than it actually is. Where is the best spot on the chest to put the monitor? below or above the boob area. I normally have it between my boob and stomach (i am a large guy) and it will show my heart rate at like 80 when it is over 150. Also, is there any suggestions that can make this more accurate? Is it because I am large the monitor is not reporting accurately?

Under Fitness Zones, Basic Heart Rate Zones, it has my resting heart rate as 60 bpm as detected by MOTOACTV. Max HR is set as 185 but I want to update that, manually, to 190. When I make the change, there is no OK or SUBMIT button

I love my DROID RAZR MAXX and since having ICS on my XOOM, I have been patiently waiting for ICS on my DROID RAZR MAXX. So I am extremely excited to now have it on my DROID RAZR MAXX. I have noticed that the battery time is a little worse since ICS. I can still get through the day without any issues but, during work I prefer to just shut the 4G off. I am noticing that there is no longer an option. I originally had the 4G toggle downloaded from the market. Now when using the toggle it takes you to "Mobil Network Settings" where you can select "Network Mode". However, the only choices are now GLOBAL, LTE/CDMA or GSM/UMTS (not even sure what this last one is but when selected there is no service). I have read in a couple of places that it can be shut off by entering a certain combination of numbers and symbols into the dialer but that seems very cumbersome and not really worth the trouble. It's not a huge deal and I prefer having ICS over being able to shut off my 4G. Was just wondering if being able to select 3G is gone forever.
