Motorola Droid Razr HD :: Update Frequency Of Circles Widget?
Dec 1, 2012
My question is about the circles widget. It is beyond frustration to me that it takes what seems like hours to update the weather. Even after touching the weather circle and it displaying the weather app, it still will typically not update. Maybe it's just me, but I see zero use in having a widget that tells me the weather from 2 hours ago. It is also incredibly annoying to be driving to work, the sun has been out shining bright for an hour and a half, it's 50-60F degrees outside, and I unlock the phone to see an image of the night sky and the moon, and a temp of 30F.
I would have more forgiveness if this was some random widget I downloaded from the Play store, but this came installed with the phone, created by Motorola, designed for my device. For the time being, I have actually removed it from the main screen because it has just become frustrating and I am tired of constantly tapping on the weather and hoping it will update. There doesn't even seem to be a refresh option once the weather opens. What I would really like, and what I have not found, is a way to change the frequency in which the weather is updated. Setting the location statically versus automatic doesn't seem to have an effect either. I am in an area with great signal, 4-5 bars, and always with LTE, otherwise I have WiFi, so it's not a network connection issue. It's not like I want it to update all the time while the phone is off either (and risk draining the battery), but when I unlock the phone, that seems like a good time for the widget to check and see if it's been more than X minutes since it last updated (X being the number I can configure).

I recently purchased a Droid Turbo and would like to change the option of the calendar display to another option like settings. I really enjoyed the Droid Maxx command center option of the battery status which flipped to the settings option...

My circle widget freezes and crashes after a period of time since the new update. I had not had this problem earlier. I have to stop the process with System Panel and the widget restarts.

When did Moto update the native blur weather widget? Last time I looked at it, it kind of had the same theming as the toggle widgets. It looks pretty nice now. how often the widget updates? There is no option to change the update interval so I'm wondering how often it actually does this.

After installing any new app that has a widget it does not appear in the App Drawer with the other widgets. I have to reboot my MAXX for the widget to show up. Couple of the apps this is happening with is Jango and The Weather Channel. This only started happening after upgrading to ICS.

I notice that Circle Battery Widget no longer breaks down what is using the battery. I know the battery portion of "settings" shows you...but I never used the settings part after Circle Battery came on the scene

My Verizon Data App stopped letting me log in and after getting no response as to what might be wrong, I decided to just delete the app and then reinstall it on my homepage. After I deleted it, I went to all Apps and it's not there! So is there a way to Undo a delete or does anyone know how I can go about getting back the app that tells me how much of my data I've used?

There seems to be a bug with the GB [blur] messaging widget. On froyo, when a text showed on the widget you can send a reply easly.

My phone updated night before last, and since then I haven't been receiving several notifications, most importantly my email is not automatically syncing. I have to manually sync my gmail. I was having no issues with notifications prior to the update.

I did the system update on my Razr Maxx today & when it restarted, it said that my SIM card was recently removed & that I needed to verify my Motoblur password. Well, I didn't know what that was so my phone was totally locked. I got home & looked it up & it wanted me to put in my Motocast password. I did that & then it told me that it looked like my carrier was Verizon & that it did not support Motoblur. What the heck. So I had to do a full system reset.

A software update for the Droid RAZR and Droid RAZR Maxx on Verizon is now rolling out in phases to all owners. You can also pull the update by going to Menu > Settings > About phone > System updates.

Starting immediately after the ICS upgrade, I began having problems with the stock browser. Basically, after a few pages of activity, the browser will freeze and completely stop working. The only way to get back to browsing is to go to Manage Apps and Force Close or restart the phone. Some sites seem to cause the problem faster than others but it seems it will eventually happen on any site. I have tried warm reboot which seems to maybe give longer use before freezing again, but that may not actually be correct. I have been trying to avoid a factory reset.

After two failed updates I've factory reset my phone, reformmated both the internal and external SD cards, yet every time I download the ICS update (6.16.212) it still fails during the unpacking of the download. OTA download completes 100%, but when the phone reboots to unpack and install the update it fails on the unpacking job. What is worse is that that OTA update must be downloaded again, everytime after it fails. I've downloaded it 7 times since this morning, factory reset, download, card re-formates, download... This whole experiance with Verizon and Motorola, waiting, waiting, and waiting some more, only to have the update finally here and have it fail on unpacking every single time?

I am having an issue where i receive the standard unlock screen even though I have a password configured. If I use the slide menu I am never prompted for my password. There are also times when the normal unlock screen will flash up and then go straight to my password.
Current configuration: PIN, lock screen after 5 sec, lock immediatly on power press.
This only happens when I allow the screen to go to sleep on it's own. If i press the power button I am not seeing the issue.

I got my Razr Maxx on 6/21 and everything worked great on GB. I took the ICS update Saturday night and thus far, have only found one issue that I can't seem to resolve. Since the update, I no longer have camera shutter sounds. While this may not be a real major issue, I do like to have the feature available especially when taking pictures outdoors in the sunlight when the screen is harder to see. Shutter sound is enabled in the stock camera app.
All phone volumes are set to maximum and as far as I know, all other audio actions are working as they should (ringtones, alarms, media, voice and all system sounds). I've tried the typical power cycle, soft reboot, cache partition wipe, cleared data and cache in the stock camera app. I've tried other 3rd party camera apps and also don't have any shutter sounds in those apps either with shutter sound feature enabled. I've uninstalled any other apps that I can think of that might have contradictory volume settings and started up in Safe Mode and still no camera shutter sounds.

The wife and I both have Razrs. For some reason, I got the notification to update to ICS, she never did. So, when you go to system updates, you can download ICS, but when you procede to update, it gives the attached message.

I updated my Razr Maxx on Monday. Tried doing it sooner, but was getting the bug where it wouldn't validate the update. Ever since my signal strenght has been much worse than before. I no longer get signal in some places that I go for work that I had no issues with before. In those I still get signal I have issues connecting to data where I never did before. Even at home my signal is much worse.I realize that ICS displays the strength differently, but the way it displays should have nothing to do with actual usability. Can hardly use my phone at all anymore while working whereas I had no issues before update.

I've pulled the update 4 times, 3 times on wifi and once on the network. Every time the update finishes downloading, it verifies for a few minutes before saying it can't be verified and to try again. Does anyone know what I can do here?

Yesterday I allowed the Motorola update on my Razr Maxx & now I wish I could undo it. When I go into "Phone", "Voicemail", "Text", etc. the background is black with white font (or in the case of Text, the background is dark blue with grey lettering). I am unable to read light colored font against a dark background so am having a terrible time with this update. Is there a way to change the color of the background and make the font black? I've tried changing the Display, Wallpaper, etc but that has no effect on the default background colors of the apps.

I have found that the earpiece volume after the JB update, when you pick up a call is very loud and can't be lowered unless you rock the volume buttons during the call. Even if you leave the volume low during the call, on any subsequent calls the volume reverts back to being very lound and you have to do it all over again. I didn't have this issue on ICS. I did notice it on the leaked OTA before the official OTA also. When I reverted back to ICS after the leak and before the official OTA, the issue fixed itself.

Both my wife's razr maxx and mine lose sound for media like play music, games and even stock music player at random times when the issue occurs. Only way I get it back is either restart the phone or if I go to menu>system settings>sound>sounds and turn ringtone volume all the way down and back up again. I thought is was just my phone but my wife complained about it to me and showed her what I do to get it back. I already did a FDR after ICS update.

So the Razr Maxx is my first Android device. I got to in mid April. I was having issues toggling between wi-fi and 4/3G. I believe I was on one of the first waves of receiving the The software update Version.6.12.181.XT912. This update seemed to temporarily fix the issue for about a week or so, BUT then the problem seemed to resurface. I told myself that I have unlimited data so I will just turn off my wi-fi and just use the 4G data connection which isn't a problem to access in Phoenix. Verizon releases their "Data Usage" widget a short time later and when I saw myself approaching 1GB in less than a week, I started to think of what I would do if I was tied to a block data plan or a family/shared data plan that was rumored.Two weeks later I am approaching 4GB and decide to start turning my wi-fi on. I encounter the same problem twice within 1 day. Verizon support decides they want to update the sim card PRL. I cold boot the phone as instructed. Within the next 24 hrs, it happens again. I noticed this occurred when I was in somewhat of a "fringe" coverage (1-2 4G bars). Is anyone else having any similar issues? Are there any ICS beta testers that were having the same issue prior to beta ICS?
