We are thinking of buying a Motorola Backflip. But we want to turn off motoblur because we don't want to waste our precious download limit on constant social networking updates. Plus it drains the battery.We haven't been able to Google up the answer to this, and the sales associates are of no help.Does anyone know if this can be done? If so, can you supply the steps? Is it complex?
View 2 Repliesjust today i did a factory restore to my phone running the 2.3.4 software and after reboot, where i had to give my motoblur data, i first set up wifi, than put in my account and password and did log in, it took unusually long ont eh progress bar and once it came al msot to the end it said there are issues signing into motoblur and i should retry, tried that twice to no avail, the only option i had was to turn off the phone, once i turned it on it already skipped to the location consent, with allegedly being logged into my account, but it wont load my settings from motoblur (ie the launcher setup or the speed dials in the dialer). I havent tried with a different account, since i wanted to get my settings back?

But when i try to link up my moto blur account i get a message that says that "moto blur service is not available right now try latter" and i think that its due to my ip address.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAccording to the Atrix support page, to delete a Motoblur account I must contact my provider. My provider is AT&T and they told me they have no access to my Blur account and are therefore unable to delete it. So:
Did the CSR I reached have the wrong answer and should AT&T be able to delete my account, and if so to whom should I direct my inquiry?If not, how DO I delete the account? I already have been given the "create a new account" advice, which is obvious, but I don't care for having accounts of any kind lying around dormant. If Moto is forcing me to have an account to use this phone they should provide a way to delete it - after all it contains stuff like my e-mail information, ...
I was given a Motoblur as a gift I loved using it It was fine for 4 weeks Then, it just developed a weird problem - it keeps turning off and rebooting every 45 seconds It does this consistently
I've used different sim cards - I know this isn't the problem They said without a receipt I was stuffed - didn't matter that the phone was completely new (Sony Ericsson: if you have a new phone - they'll take the IMEI and will honour the warranty if a new phone)
I got a call back 5 min after the phone call They told me to update the software - the phone was due an update
I updated Yeeee ha! The phone lasted 1.5 minutes - and then started rebooting
I tried logging into my Moto Blur account it will not accept my password and said call customer Service to retrieve password

View 8 Replies View Relatedafter seeing some videos of the droid 3 and now bionic, i see their version of "blur" is alot better than the version on the photon 4g....the version we have is laggy as heck, im currently using launcher pro. but the "blur" on the droid 3 and bionic are a lot different and seem to be a lot less laggy than ours. has a nice honeycomb look to it when adding widgets and what not. is there a reason we have the kia sephia of blur and they get the mercedes? is this coming to the photon?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI thought I'd start a thread so that we'd have something else to discuss as well besides the Froyo upgrade.What do you think Motorola should do to improve Motoblur on the phone? Or if you don't use Motoblur, which home replacement do you use instead and why? I don't use MB. I use Go Launcher instead. I don't think MB is bad. It's just a matter of personal preference really, mainly because I prefer to have 5 icons in the dockbar and an drawer that scrolls horizontally page by page (how do you find what you want quickly vertically?). The other customisation options - 4x5 homescreens, 5x5 app drawer that can be rearranged, transitions and skins - are also great too.

View 15 Replies View RelatedI upgraded my motorola click to android 2.1 based on the instructions provided through motorola's web page. I checked all faqs and troubleshooting and have not reached a solution. After the phone restarted I was instructed to log back in to motoblur and now it is saying "the account does not exist on the blur service". It is also saying that when I try to retrieve my password from the motoblur portal. I know I have the right email address for my motoblur ID, but it appears my account has just disappeared. I haven't tried calling anyone yet because I know I will get passed around back and forth from Tmobile to Motorola. It seems there is no way to retrieve a lost id in case I have the wrong one. I did however go into the phone before I did the upgrade and verify that the motorola blur id was the email address I thought it was.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have CLIQ from last 6 months, I found its battery works around 15 hours while GPS, wifi etc. are off. I usually use for calls and check some emails (I do not reply those emails from mobile) only.From last 2-3 days its not charging properly, when I plug in for charging it stuck on some %, e.g. I plug in on 25% battery and even after half an hour I found it on 25% itself or 31%. (Some time battery % get down e.g. plug in on 15% and after 15 mins its on 12%)Also should this kind of mobile should have such kind of problems in 6 months only?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've had my Defy for a little more than a year...but I'm "stranger in a strange land" here in the forum, mostly because I'm neither techie nor anything close to a power user. But I do not use any of the Motoblur junk...and don't even want it on the phone. The only time I'm aware of it is when I check the list of running apps and see how many of them are Motoblur related. I'd love to be able to delete them, if only to get rid of the power drain they represent. Yet I suspect that Motorola has them all pretty much "hard wired" into the phone. Or is there some sort of less obvious, less intuitive way to get rid of the Motoblur news, weather and other crap?

However, on the phone, if I 'check for system updates', it reports the software is up to date.
Since I have an issue with the software, I'd like to update it to check for a fix. I could probably use the USB updater, but is there some reason why the phone won't do it itself ?
I did a factory reset on my atrix today and could not log onto my blur account, both on my phone and online. On my phone, I get the error message, "An error has occurred. Please try again." Logging in online, I get the message, "There was an internal error. Please try again later." I have search on the fourms and found no definitive answers. Live chat was no help either. I would rather not have to create a new motoblur account.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded to a Samsung Epic 4G and traded in my old Motorola Devour (using RadioShack's trade in program) and only once I got home realized only about half my contacts where there. It seems some of my contacts were on my Google account, which carried over to the new phone, but many others (and annoyingly, the ones I needed most) were only stored to my Motoblur account. Most other services like this offer a way to recover your contacts in some way, such as a download, when the phone is no longer available. Motorola's support agent on the chat says that the only way to access Motoblur contacts is from a phone with Motoblur on it, and there's no web interface or other means to download my contacts in the event that I choose to upgrade to a phone without Motoblur.
there's a way to get my contacts back without having to go buy a new phone?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI had recently purchased my first Android device, a Moto Defy+. This is not a carrier locked phone.
I use my gmail contacts as the default address book and when i signed up for Moto blur account, it somehow made a backup of all my gmail contacts on motoblur. Now, i can see the same contact details twice for every address book entry. During the backup process, motoblur deleted the leading zeros from all phone numbers. Even though gmail is my default address book, the phone picks up motoblur stored info while making calls - due to which I am now unable to make long distance calls from my phone unless i manually go and edit/delete the phone numbers from the motoblur section on the address book. needless to say, this is very irritating as i have over a 1000 contacts.
How do i delete all my contacts from the motoblur section? i do not really use the motoblur account for anything and if deleting the motoblur account is a solution, i'll be happy to do that. however, i do not want to do a factory setting restore.
