Motorola Droid Razr :: Automatic Time Setting Is Way Off?
Feb 12, 2012
There is a setting to enable the RAZR to automatically keep its time correct by syncing with a time server somewhere on the internet. When I checked the time on my RAZR against my PC, where I have a service that sets the time from an atomic clock, I found that the RAZR was off by more than 14 seconds. I disabled the option and instead installed an app called "ClockSync" that sets the correct time. Unfortunately, the automatic time update setting is required by Verizon in order to login to My Verizon Mobile, so I either give up checking my data and call usage or I give up accurate time. This is very annoying. Can we get Verizon to use a reliable time server instead of whatever they are using now?

Tapping my way through "Go to all settings" > "Accounts" > "Google". I see my gmail account shown, and under that it says "Sync is OFF". Before the update to Jellybean I could find where to turn this on and off. Further tapping on my account name I get to a screen titled "Sync" at the top-left. The options icon gives me "Sync now" and "Remove account" options. The screen is filled with a list of Google things I can sync. Tapping any of those syncs that Google thing. But, none of them are configurable.

How does this work? As far as I can tell, it does nothing. I have it set "on" and I have seen no evidence at all that it has ever set the time.

Under Settings > security and screen lock > automatic lock, it gives options from 5 to 10 minutes, and 'maximum'. - this is the time the screen actually after going to sleep.

Since updating to Jelly Bean, the automatic brightness feature is downright terrible. It makes using my phone on a daily basis extremely frustrating. It is too aggressive when switching between bright / dim modes, and tends to make the brightness "flicker." I also wish the phone didn't bump the screen brightness up / down rapidly. Why can't it gently fade it?

Since the last automatic Droid Razr update a few weeks ago it is very complicated to mark all unread emails as read! It was easy to do before but after this update it seems not to work! If go to my main email account I can sort the email by date, unread, or other options. I select by unread. I then press the menu key and select "select all". Then some iconw appear in the bottom: a trash, a mail, and a flag. I select the mail one and it opens up and the word "mark read" appears but the messages don't clear as read. It used to work without issues before the update.

I know many 1320 users don't have the option for automatic time settings. I have it, but it is useless. I noticed my time was messed up while it was on, so I did a test. I changed the time 5 minutes back, and I turned on the automatic setting. I have data and location on. I checked an hour later, my time is still off the Microsoft server time with 5 minutes. Nothing happens.

I"m looking for the settings for the wired headset. There was a screen that allowed you to set sound effects and I believe equalizer settings. Was this screen eliminated? I can't seem to find it.

I find that if I set the camera to HDR it stays there as long as I just open and close the camera. If I switch to video and back or switch from rear to front camera it no longer has the HDR setting I have to change it again. Same issue if I reboot. The setting does not want to stay on HDR.

I've happily purchased a Motorola RAZR XT910 and have setup my POP email account, which sends and receives happily when on 3G (connected to optus)At work and home I have wireless access which allows me to browse and to receive emails. But I have errors when trying to send when connected wirelessly.Problem is when trying to send emails when connected via wireless. Quite correctly it has smtp errors as the smtp setting is for the 3g carrier (mail.optusnet.com.au). So question is "How do you configure the Motorola RAZR XT910 Droid to allow a secondary SMTP setting when in an allowed and configured wireless zone?"I should not have to turn off my wireless and should not have to manually change the smtp setting each time I want to send from inside the wireless connection.I tried setting up a second account with just the smtp being different (eg. mail.carrier.com.au) but was unable to setup the account as it said the account was already setup.

How do I set my phone to use use my external SD card, 32 gig, for as much as possible so that I can try to use only what is mandatory on my internal storage? I have my camera set to use my external SD card I'm not sure how to set apps, downloads, music etc to use external. I'm assuming there is a recommendation that those of you who know more about using this phone than I that I should use?

I've notice what I'd consider a security issue. I have my phone set up to require a PIN after 20 minutes of non-use. This works fine EXCEPT for when I use the sleep mode (Power button-Sleep). If I let it sleep over-night then wake it up, it does NOT require the PIN number. So that means that if the phone were taken and I'd put it to sleep, then phone's vulnerable

Looks like Sprint and AT&T phones are Q3 . The Verizon phones don't show a time yet. Maybe my Razr will have ICS by 2012..(Sarcasm).

The browser just closes and when I reopen it all browser windows have closed.While this isn't really that big a deal in of itself, I just received the phone two days ago so I am worried that it signifies something bigger!Otherwise this phone is awesome and I don't want to return it if this is just a bug that can be fixed...but if this is the start of a crazy amount of problems like I had with the Motorola Droid X I want to bail early! Before I had the Motorola Droid X I had the Motorola Droid and it was always nice and stable!!It never did this with my Motorola Droid X and it doesn't do it with any other websites I have found. (yet)t also does it occasionally when my daughter plays Smurf Village but that is harder to reproduce; I don't what she does exactly before it kicks out.

The day I purchased this phone it registered 6 Text Messages. I checked them and there were no text messages to be viewed. Then for some unknown reason the number would dissapear. Then again reapear, and disapear, and reapear, I think you get the picture. Needless to say this is becoming frustrating. It has been two months and I just can't seem to get this number to be accurate.

Since the upgrade, my maxx keeps downloading e-mails 18-25 at a time. These are old e-mail, and we are now clear back to Feb. 2012. I'll delete all and about 10 minutes later, I see it downloading again. This is a pop-server account. New e-mails seem to find there way in fine.

Is there a way that, when setting a time on a calendar item, that the time can be locked?Example:When travelling, the time of airline flights is set when at home city.Phone is set to Auto Time, to display the system time. I.e., when travelling to a different time zone, the local time is used by the phone.Problem: The time in all calendar items are adjusted to the time zone travelled-to, not the value orginally set. Therefore the time of an airline flight is advanced (or reduced), and does not reflect the time that the flight actually departs.. a problem.One work-around is to leave the phone time setting to home time, but then the phone can't be used in place of a watch.Is there a setting in the calendar function that ignores current phone time?

Since Verizon discontinued my Family Share Plan (which included unlimited data for $20 a month) I had to switch to a specified maximum use plan. When at home, I keep Wi-Fi on as well as Data Plan. Will the OS (4.1.1) automatically choose Wi-Fi or do I have to shut off the Data Plan to minimize usage? I installed Smart Wi-Fi Toggler but I'm not sure if I can set the Data Plan to go off at Home and On when away.

My brother and I both have the MAXX. Once the OTA went live I pulled it from update status and downloaded the update. My brother tried and he got "Update not available at this time" I found the solution and thought I'd share with everyone that needed a fix for this. Go to your dial pad and enter #35468#(#eliot#) which will then say "log checkin initiated" once that goes away(2 seconds) reboot your phone by holding Volume down and the power button. Hold until the phone shuts off. It will power back up on its own. Once back up, you should be able to pull the update. I hope this works.On a side note, I didn't try to just reboot with Vol- & Pwr without first dialing #eliot# if you are having this issue, could you first just try the reboot and see if that works?

This feature doesn't appear to work. At least not when I put the phone in my poclet. How is it supposed to work? Does it detect the absence of light? Maybe my pocket isn't dark enough?

All of my apps that are loaded on my xyboard and razr are checked to automatically update but yet certain apps continuously tell me that an update is available and I have to do it manually. Even though the box is checked to allow automatic updates.This happens on both devices for the same apps. Gets very annoying.

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.

how to turn off the new Automatic Wifi Feature that was releases with ICS? I think it is great that the phone can turn on Wifi when you are close to it, but it would be real nice if you could set it to turn on only when near certain Wifi Networks, or even turn if off for that matter.
Short of waiting for the Auto Wifi menu to eventually pop up and ask how you want to use it, does anyone know where to actually go in the settings to do it when you want to and not when ICS decides to give you the pop up?
It is real frustrating since it does NOT shut itself off when you leave a Wifi Zone and there is no apparent way to set it to turn on only when near your Wifi zones which makes this feature more of an annoyance then a feature.
